"Swallowing Heaven Toad? What a mighty name!" Ling Feng clicked his tongue and said, "What's so special about this Swallowing Heaven Toad? Why are you so surprised?"

Xuanyuan Xia exhaled and said, "This Swallowing Heaven Toad is a powerful creature cultivated by the Atlantis Continent's Divine Clan. It is said to devour everything! Of course, there is some exaggeration, but a mature phase Swallowing Heaven Toad can indeed swallow a Divine Realm Master whole!"

Swallow a Divine Realm Master? Ling Feng felt a bit lucky in his heart, fortunately, he had left decisively earlier; otherwise, he wouldn't even be enough to fill its mouth.

"Heh, what's a Divine Realm Master?" At this time, the overly proud Crystal Skull came out again, saying smugly, "The Swallowing Heaven Toads cultivated by our God race can even swallow masters of the Sea of Gods Realm. If our breeding base hadn't been destroyed by different races, with our strength, breeding a Swallowing Heaven Toad capable of swallowing Azure Sky Realm masters wouldn't be impossible!"

"Weren't you going to rest? Why are you out again?" Ling Feng said annoyedly, "By the way, since you know about the Swallowing Heaven Toad, you should also know why that Swallowing Heaven Toad is trapped, right?"

The Crystal Skull sighed slightly, "Of course! That Swallowing Heaven Toad is the last one left by our divine race. Back then, the different races devised a special poison to eliminate the Swallowing Heaven Toads, and this poison could quickly spread in the Swallowing Heaven Toad. Soon it would die rapidly, leaving only the strongest one!"

"At that time, we unexpectedly discovered that the Poisonous Clam Pearl could alleviate the toxin's effects, so we trapped the Swallowing Heaven Toad in the Bottleneck Pool and trapped it inside, intending to detoxify it with the Poisonous Clam Pearl." The Crystal Skull's tone carried a hint of sadness, "This was just a temporary measure. We planned to develop an antidote later, but... our divine race was defeated too quickly, and so the Swallowing Heaven Toad remained in the Bottleneck Pool!"

Ling Feng and Xuanyuan Xia exchanged glances, both looking a bit displeased.

"So, you've known all along that a Swallowing Heaven Toad is locked beneath the Deep Pool?" Ling Feng's tone carried a hint of gloom, "If that's the case, why didn't you say so earlier?"

The Crystal Skull was taken aback, "Oh? I didn't mention it? Hahaha... well... I'm now severely damaged and have forgotten many things, ahahaha, I need to return to rest and recover now..."

Before the words were finished, the Crystal Skull turned into a white light and burrowed into Ling Feng's wrist.

"That guy, he must have done it on purpose!" Ling Feng gritted his teeth and said, "I just knew this guy was hiding something!"

Xuanyuan Xia exhaled and said, "Forget it, anyway, we had a narrow escape this time. In the future, you should only believe a third of what this Crystal Skull says!"

Ling Feng agreed and nodded.

"But..." Xuanyuan Xia said, "Ling Feng, do you think what this Crystal Skull said is all true?"

Ling Feng was taken aback, "You mean, there's some exaggeration in the Crystal Skull's words?"

"Not some, but definitely!" Xuanyuan Xia said confidently.

Ling Feng frowned, muttering to himself, "Previously, the Crystal Skull didn't mention the Swallowing Heaven Toad, but when you brought it up, it hurriedly came out to explain. This behavior is quite suspicious! Could it be that there's a hidden secret behind the Swallowing Heaven Toad, and the Crystal Skull came out to dispel our thoughts of exploration?"

Xuanyuan Xia glanced at Ling Feng, "We can't rule out that possibility!"

Ling Feng shook his head, "Even if that's the case, so what? That Swallowing Heaven Toad is incredibly powerful. Although held back by the Heavenly Dao and hasn't broken into the Divine Realm, its physical strength and defense are at the Divine Realm level! I also can't use the Mo Yu Sword now; dealing with it won't be easy!"

Xuanyuan Xia gave a mysterious smile, "Just because you have no way doesn't mean I don't either. Why don't we go and explore to see if there's any hidden secret behind that Swallowing Heaven Toad!"

Ling Feng couldn't help but be tempted. He rubbed his nose, "Then... shall we go take a look?"

After greeting the Bright Saintess and others, Ling Feng and Xuanyuan Xia returned to the Deep Pool, also known as the Bottleneck Pool, as referred to by the Crystal Skull.

Once familiar, twice proficient! Led by Ling Feng, they quickly reached the bottom of the pool again.

"It's too dark here!" Xuanyuan Xia looked around, then flipped her hand, revealing a Luminous Pearl in her hand, appearing so radiant in the dim waters.

"Are you afraid that the Swallowing Heaven Toad won't come out or what?" Ling Feng looked at Xuanyuan Xia, who was strolling at the bottom of the pool with the Luminous Pearl, speechless.

Xuanyuan Xia gave Ling Feng a glance, "This pool bottom is too open, and we don't know what dangers might be lurking. Better let the Swallowing Heaven Toad come find us, that way the danger will be smaller..."

Before the words were finished, a cold light came from deep beneath the pool, followed by a rush of bone-chilling water.

"Here it comes!" Xuanyuan Xia's eyes narrowed, and she pointed with a slender finger before her, "Annihilation Vortex!"

The water in front of Xuanyuan Xia instantly began to spin, forming a gigantic vortex! That attack was drawn into the vortex and was instantly torn apart, turned into blood, and dissolved in the pool water!

"That move is amazing! It's almost as powerful as my full-force strike!" Ling Feng couldn't help but think as he watched Xuanyuan Xia's impressive move.

Xuanyuan Xia frowned, "It wasn't the Swallowing Heaven Toad, could it be that it didn't notice our arrival? That's impossible, given the Swallowing Heaven Toad's strength, how could it not detect our presence? Unless..."

Recalling Ling Feng mentioning that the Swallowing Heaven Toad had mysteriously left before, a large smile spread on her lips, "Ling Feng, follow me. I've figured it out; the poison within the Swallowing Heaven Toad has flared up, now's the perfect time to strike while it's down!"

As Ling Feng and the others headed deeper, they noticed the expansive nature of the pool floor, and apart from the Swallowing Heaven Toad and the Poisonous Clam, there were many fierce creatures.

The attacker earlier was a vicious Flying Swordfish, but these ferocious aquatic creatures posed little threat to Ling Feng and the others!

Soon, they saw a large cave ahead at some distance, with large footprints and chain marks in front of it, indicating the Swallowing Heaven Toad was very likely inside.

"Ling Feng, lure that creature out, and we'll wipe it out!" Xuanyuan Xia said excitedly.

Ling Feng's mouth twitched. He looked around and found a large rock nearby. Ling Feng placed the rock at the cave entrance and then kicked it into the cave.
