"..."
The second day after being urged, it was done? Chen Qi skeptically looked at the 'Deep Sea Tentacle Compression Ball' in his hands.
This taboo equipment that I'm holding, did it really take several years, no, several days to be made? A hint of doubt crept into Chen Qi's mind, and he couldn't help but ridicule inwardly.
No, this is equipment that was put inside a treasure chest, crafted by a Saint, it must not be underestimated!
Chen Qi hastily continued reading, trying to find some evidence that 'this equipment' was indeed remarkable.
"April 3rd, I tested the new equipment! My review is just two words, impressive! It's a masterpiece among similar items!
Especially for scrubbing during a bath! This is even more comfortable than a tub bath with a Sea Beast!
You won't believe it, but tentacles actually feel quite nice!
I initially wanted to give this to Asilina as a bath scrubber, in exchange for some knowledge. But unexpectedly, she rejected it, what a foolish person for not understanding the comfortable and wonderful pleasure of a tentacle bath."
"..."
Well, whether this equipment is impressive or not seems to be less important now... Chen Qi's smiling expression suddenly froze.
Using tentacles for a bath, is that something people do?
Deep Sea Hunter! Are you really giving a woman a tentacle bath scrubber? No, are you putting a bathing item in a treasure chest as a treasure?
Calm down, calm down... Chen Qi pressed his chest, suppressing the urge to spout profanities, and kept reading.
"April 3rd, though Asilina rejected my gift, out of guilt for the twenty-year delay in completing this equipment, and on my deathbed, she still revealed to me the burial location of one of my important relics, 'Deep Sea Hunter,' the Legendary Occupation Card of light and blade."
Hm? Light and blade? Chen Qi's expression suddenly changed.
Clues to a Legendary Occupation Card... Chen Qi became instantly excited.
Only by reaching Legend does one truly enter the ranks of the strong in this world.
Legendary profession cards are exceptionally powerful, a quantum leap compared to previous occupations.
However, Legendary profession cards are exceedingly rare. The two simplest methods to obtain them: one is through a B-grade Crack Tide, reaching an S evaluation has a small chance of dropping one.
But even for a Legend, facing the significant risk of death is necessary to achieve an S grade in a B-grade Crack Tide.
Another method is to join a large Extraordinary Organization, but obtaining a Legendary profession card from an organization is extremely difficult.
In this era of Crack Tide, without any background, an ordinary Third Rank Transcendent might have to defeat a hundred, or even a thousand, Third Rank Transcendents from the same organization and achieve unheard-of feats to possibly get their hands on an organization's Legendary profession card.
Besides these, there are rare merchant shops like the Shell Phase merchants, or special events in the crack, and so forth.
All these methods rely heavily on luck, not to mention the obtained Legendary profession card must match one's nature.
Chen Qi stroked his chin, having a definitive clue to a Legendary profession card is undoubtedly a good thing.
Not to mention, the 'Deep Sea Hunter' Occupation Card is not just any ordinary Legendary profession card, but an extremely rare one, unique to the Witch Sea and of the Light Blade Phase.
Chen Qi hurriedly read on.
"April 3rd, the Deep Sea Hunter is not a common profession card. In the distant Mist Sea, toward the direction of the Dawn Star, there is a dilapidated Lighthouse Island. I walked alone upon the sea, placing the Deep Sea Hunter's Legendary profession card and my other relics at the very top of the lighthouse.
When the Crack Tide returns, the treasure chest will open, and with this, I will have buried another relic."
"May 10th, Whale Father told me he had a method to resist the Great Whale and was planning to create the Whale Hunting Pirate Group, replacing the ineffective Shell Country, to protect the peace of the Witch Sea. He requested help from the Ice Witch and me to get more Black Whale Blood.
However, the Ice Witch does not trust him.
In my view, his reliance on Black Whale Blood is too strong, which led to an argument between us, and we ended up damaging a once prosperous island."
Whale Father, the big BOSS of Witch Sea... Chen Qi stroked his chin, the original name of the Black Whale Group was the Whale Hunting Pirate Group, and it seems Whale Father and the Ice Witch were friends.
"June 6th, I found an item, the Lake Sword, from the Deep Sea, which can enhance the capabilities of one's Domain. It is an extremely rare treasure, emitting an aura very similar to the bath scrubber I had acquired before.
I suddenly had a bold idea, maybe it could produce a wonderful interaction with the bath scrubber I previously obtained, allowing an ordinary Third Rank Transcendent to master the power of a Domain. However, turning the bath scrubber into a perfect Domain Skill would require quite an effort."
Domain-related items... Chen Qi reflected for a moment.
Domain-related equipment, although also including 'Domain' in the name, is still vastly different from the Domain Skill of a Legend.
But such Domain equipment, if the Transcendent has high enough comprehension, could lead to merchant special moves, significantly enhancing the equipment's power and eventually becoming a medium to unleash a true 'Domain Skill'.
Chen Qi looked toward the end of the diary.
"August 25th, my body is deteriorating more and more. Unlike the situation with the Ice Witch, this is not the hunt of the Lantern Death God but an inherent issue with my body. The Deep Sea Hunter Occupation Card is too damaging to the body, and simple physical strength cannot withstand such power.
I rummaged through books and found a potion recipe that could cause a qualitative change in one's physique, thereby adapting to the Deep Sea Power.
A stalk of Sea Blue Grass, combined with a liter of Ghost Fire Oil to refine the Ghost Fire Essence, and the White Sea Fruit of the Lamp Moon Sea Dragon, to make Light Sea Medicine.
Consuming large amounts of this potion can bring unimaginable positive changes to the body.
However, the Lamp Moon Sea Dragon is too rare. Finding such an almost extinct sea beast is incredibly difficult. Perhaps in the future, this potion recipe could prove useful.
For me, these potion recipes are already worthless. All I need to do is bury the treasure well and then hunt as many sea beasts as possible to revive the Great Whale and reduce the number of monsters ravaging the seas."
"Hopefully, when the Great Whale arrives, someone may live an extra day with the help of my treasure."
Chen Qi's fingers gently traced the last sentence of the diary.
The two most important pieces of information in this diary are, first, the information about the Deep Sea Hunter Occupation Card.
Second, the recipe for a special potion.
At that moment, Fen came up from behind, sneaked up to Chen Qi's face, and asked:
"What does it say here?"
Chen Qi repeated the contents of the diary to Fen and asked:
"Fen, do you know about Light Sea Medicine?"

Fen thought for a long time and said:
"I only know the name. This is a potion that only someone of Legendary status could make. It's an extremely powerful potion that can significantly enhance a person's physique without any side effects. However, because the Lamp Moon Sea Dragon is so rare, this potion recipe has also disappeared for a long time."
Fen committed the potion recipe to memory. It was not impossible to find a Lamp Moon Sea Dragon in the Crack Tide.
"Is that so..."
Chen Qi silently took the parchment, placed it into his backpack card, then cut his hand to draw blood and complete the connection with the Deep Sea Tentacle Compression Ball.
[You now control the Deep Sea Tentacle Compression Ball.]
Along with the completion of the connection, Chen Qi's finger moved slightly.
The compression ball floated up into the air.
Chen Qi tried it out; the compression ball could rotate freely following his will.
Although it was just a scrubbing cloth, in any case, he still had to try out its effects.
Chen Qi's finger slid down sharply, and the Deep Sea Tentacle Ball dipped into the ocean.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
And the surrounding seawater also continuously poured into the ball, even forming a vortex with a radius of ten meters.
Fen stood by, also curiously watching this scene.
At this moment, Chen Qi could feel the overwhelming power of the ball.
Like a balloon being filled with a massive amount of gas.
"It's almost done absorbing..."
Chen Qi's finger gently lifted up.
Release!
In an instant, the sea in front of them became tumultuous, as if a storm surged, and at the same time, nearly a hundred twenty-meter-thick water tentacles burst out of the sea, indiscriminately attacking everything around.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The entire sea seemed to have instantly welcomed a tentacle calamity.
The next instant, a huge tentacle fell from the sky, slamming fiercely toward Fen.
