It is well-known that the behemoths dwelling in the oceans are far larger and more terrifying than those on land. Even with his current physical strength, Chu Xuan doubted whether he could withstand the crushing pressure of thousands of tons of seawater to delve into the deepest trenches of Blue Star.
Chu Xuan surmised that he needed to advance his physical cultivation further, breaking through to the twenty-first layer, to qualify for deep-sea exploration. If such was his predicament, naturally, he could not expect the operatives of Black Blade to venture into the oceanic depths.
Ah, the limitations of his subordinates were indeed a source of great frustration.
"Perhaps, my approach is flawed," he pondered. "If humans struggle to traverse the vast seas, what about the zombies?"
This thought invigorated Chu Xuan. With a flicker, he teleported to the farm where the Zombie Empress was energetically competing with the Zombie Matriarch.
Although they were mother and daughter from one perspective, such familial bonds were non-existent among zombies.
Competing with me for blood pearls? Then, you are not a daughter but a foe!
The arrival of Chu Xuan instilled immense fear in the Zombie Empress. It harbored a deep-seated fear of this human, despite being regularly fed blood pearls, elevating its Psionic level to the seventh rank. Yet, its fear remained profound.
"I need you to produce a new type of zombie," Chu Xuan commanded from above, looking down. "One that can swim in water and send messages from afar." free𝑤ebnovel.com
The Zombie Empress's eyes widened in panic. Such a demand... I cannot fulfill!
Seeing its reaction, Chu Xuan furrowed his brow. "You can't do it? Then, perhaps you are of no use to me..."
"Roar! Roar, roar, roar!" In desperation, the Zombie Empress bellowed as if to shout incessantly: I can do it; I must be able to do it!
Not far off, the Zombie Matriarch also roared, as if responding to Chu Xuan's challenge.
"Very well, whoever among you first creates such a zombie will claim these three large blood pearls," Chu Xuan announced calmly, displaying three large, lustrous blood pearls.
At the sight of the large blood pearls, both the Zombie Empress and the Zombie Matriarch were frenzied. So, there were larger blood pearls above the smaller ones! They had to succeed!
Chu Xuan observed the zombies' burning determination and smiled satisfactorily. This was exactly what he wanted. The energy concentration in the large blood pearls far surpassed that of the smaller ones—akin to the relief of air conditioning in summer or a heater in winter.
Chu Xuan's motivation proved effective. Within just two days, the Zombie Empress had delivered a perfect solution.
Chu Xuan gazed at the peculiar life form before him, his expression one of astonishment.
At first glance, this creation seemed to have no relation to zombies because it was essentially a small flesh boat. Inside, one could see mutated spines and ribs, as well as dark blue-black veins covering the entire body.
The hands and feet had mutated into paddles, yet the bow prominently featured a head with its mouth agape, reminding Chu Xuan that this indeed was a modified zombie.

The Zombie Empress roared with high spirits, eagerly explaining the new product's capabilities to Chu Xuan. To him, however, it was merely a series of expressive roars.
"Hu, come here and listen. Then, explain it to me," Chu Xuan said as he massaged his temples, summoning Hu.
