Chapter 602

Treacherous Waters (Part 2)

Qiao Xue reacted the strongest of everyone as she was at Ghost Gate’s mercy on Second Heaven. Lu Xiong and Gui Dingtian pulled Mu Yu behind them, adamant on protecting the dragon vine. The winning fish returned to Qiao Xue’s body. The dragon vine made the wise decision, hiding inside Mu Yu’s clothing. The fact that even Body Synthesis Realm fiends were under heavy tension in the face of Gui Yeming’s qi meant that he had ascended beyond Body Synthesis Realm.

“I thought it’s about time I allocate your reward for tailing me all this time.”

Gui Dingtian called for his shell, covering everyone inside as it flitted past them.

Gui Yeming slammed waves against the shell, rocking Gui Dingtian, then remarked, “Pretty tough shell you have there.”

Gui Yeming slammed down on one side of the shell, flipping it onto its side and cracking it. Blood seeped out from the teeth Gui Dingtian clamped together to resist the impact. Owing to his link to his shell, Gui Dingtian’s back suffered the same damage that his shell did.

Lu Xiong and Qiao Xue hurried to Gui Dingtian’s aid, while Mu Yu fed him healing pills, hoping that the pills designed for humans would work for fiends.

“I-I’m fine,” assured Gui Dingtian, straightening his legs with Lu Xiong’ assistance.n0ve(l)bi(n.)co/m

Crack! At the same moment the shell cracked open, Gui Dingtian’s legs crumbled beneath him, and everyone inside the shell was thrown out. There was nowhere to run inside the prison of water bars.

“Into the water!”

The fiends dove down, disregarding whoever gave the direction. They thought they would get away since they were a team familiar with wet terrains. Alas, Ghost Gate wouldn’t set a trap that didn’t take diving into the equation. Ghost Gate cast their ghost qi into the water, creating a barrier that bounced back the fiends who tried to dive.

Mu Yu stuck Wood Spirit into the water, hoping to erase the energy. The problem was the energy would take a long time – too long in their case – to erase.

“Death by Water and Wood.”

Mu Yu unleashed black and white qi, spurring Wood Spirit to sprout black branches in the ocean, thereby sucking up the ghost qi to clear it.

“Get in!”

Mu Yu grabbed the two elders and raced into the big bubble to dive.

Though surprised the water and wood combo could overcome the trap he engineered, Gui Yeming had faith in his overwhelming cultivation and, therefore, spawned a hand in the water to smack the bubble! Green leaves in bubbles emerged from exterior of the bubble, erasing ghost qi as the overpowering ghost qi deleted the leaves one by one. Nonetheless, kill one leaf, and ten more emerged.

Gui Yeming launched another hand at them, crushing the bubble too fast for Mu Yu to react. The fiends reverted to their fiend forms to swim more efficiently. Long Xingyun and Long Yeli clung to the hippopotamus since the two of them weren’t as proficient as the others when it came to swimming.

Qiao Xue’s water spirit tied her to Mu Yu, who manage to catch only Lu Xiong in a last-ditch effort; however, a vortex spawned out of the blue and sucked all of the fiends in.

Gui Yeming chased them over to the vortex and brayed, “If it wasn’t time to catch my ferry, I’d maul every single one of you!”
