"Impossible!" Shirong said out loud.

The others who didn\'t know if this beast were confused about it, while the ones that had little knowledge were taken aback.

"An Aquadream Sea Lotus cannot even exist there! They need seas to live while our world does not have any seas, only oceans. Thus, they exist in the Great Ocean as well. Even if they did attack the continent, they would at most be able to attack the coast.

The area that was flooded was still rather inland." Shirong explained..

"I know, young master Shirong, we had the same confusion. But after seeing the spirit Qi fluctuations that reached the Dao Treading realm and the effect that it brought upon the area, have no other option but it being an Aquadream Sea Lotus." The King replied.

"But there must be a way it appeared so far inland. They can\'t be out of their habitats for long." Shirong spoke.

"Actually, that is the reason why we think the flood occurred." Senior Kong chimed in.

Hearing this, Shirong finally understood.

"It can\'t be… so it flooded the area so it could continue on ahead." Shirong said with disbelief.

Shirong had learned about the Aquadream Lotuses in his clan a long time ago. They were often the reason why it was difficult to cross the Great ocean and get to the other continent. 

While there were indeed Teleportation formations that could take one to the other continents, they needed a lot of spirit Qi to run and thus used up several tens of thousands of High grade spirit stones.

Plus, for it to work, the formations needed to be activated on both ends. So for example, someone wanted to go to the Hu Continent from the Long continent, then the people on both sides needed to agree and activate it at the same time for it to be usable.

It was a safety feature and prevented them from experiencing any surprise attacks. It also prevented people from illegally leaving the continent that they lived in. These formations were said to have been built a long time ago and were currently in the ownership of the three guardian clans.

Thus, if anyone even wanted to go to the other continent using them, they needed to be strong enough that they could talk to the clans. Otherwise, they would just be ignored and won\'t seven be considered.

Thus, the only way people could travel across was by using large ships. Flying was also an option, of course, but again, this was limited to a few strong cultivators. Even Nascent Soul realm and Dao Shell realm cultivators would die if they tried to cross the ocean by flying.

They would either end up exhausting all of their spirit Qi, or be killed by the dangers there. As for the ones in the Dao Treading realm, they were already influential enough that they could just use the teleportation formation to do the same.

"Could it perhaps be some other Aquadream Lotus? For example, an Aquadream Lake lotus that managed to break through?" one of the more knowledgeable ministers questioned.

"No… even if it was one often Aquadream Lake Lotus\'s in the wild, we already know their locations. As for the Aquadream Pond Lotus that are raised by some sects, they are even more unlikely as they will never break through to the next realm." Shirong answered. 

"Huh? The location of all Aquadream Lake Lotus\'s is known?" A general asked.

"Indeed… the top clans and sects have known about their locations for a long time. We also prevent them from leaving their territories. Why do you think people do not see beasts above Nascent soul realm often?" Shirong replied.

"I see… I didn\'t know…" The general and several other people were surprised by this.

While they had known that the sects and top clans kept a lot of secrets that most people didn\'t know, they also didn\'t know that they protected them from this as well.

"This is one of the dilemmas we have, Young Master. We do not know how this Aquadream Sea Lotus managed to appear there and also why exactly it did so." The King spoke.

"Didn\'t you say earlier that it was due to the battle between the beast that burned the Dread Coil Marsh and the lotus?" Shirong questioned.

"Well, that…" The king hesitated a bit. "We just had an assumption we don\'t know for sure. It was more to give an excuse to the commoners. We couldn\'t just say that the beast destroyed the area for no reason. This would cause panic among the commoners.

Rather than saying that, we found it better to just say that it was a battle between two beasts of equal caliber. This way the people won\'t have the fear that the beast came to attack and eat humans." The King explained.

"I see… that\'s understandable," Shirong replied.

He knew how important it was to keep the public anxiety and fear in control. If it went to high or low things could get ugly real fast. 

"Though…" Shirong replied. "I think the fact that it was two beasts fighting might really be the truth." 

He had been in the Dread Cool Marsh himself and knew somewhat of the events that occurred. So far Shirong was thinking that it was the Immortal Crystal Armament that caused the fire, and now it seemed to be far more likely.

But it was now that a question was presented to him.

"Wait, what\'s the time period between the flood and the fire in the dread coil marsh?" Shirong questioned.

"Well, the fire started about a month ago, but the flood definitely occurred earlier. We can\'t tell how early though since it was done by a Dao treading realm beast and its spirit Qi traces can linger on for a long time." The King answered.
