Chapter 150 - Battle in the water
The lake was immeasurably deep, the first group of disciples have already dived several hundred meters, the protective Qi layer around their body was being squished to near an inch away from their skin, it was barely enough to cover the area where they happen to be surrounded by the dreaded Ancient Cannibal Fish. These fish gathered in groups, and began attacking the lone disciples.
Those with strong Zhen Qi were able to defend themselves, but those with weaker Zhen Qi were swiftly taken care of in two to three bites, and not even their bones left, the amount of blood spilt was incomparable
“Elder Sister, and the two Brothers, thank goodness you had your First Sky Holy Water technique to defend us.”
Amongst the many disciples from the martial schools, there were not many who could stand up to an attack by the Ancient cannibal fish. There was a group of five people from the Rudra Martial School covering themselves in water with a protective layer in the shape of a cone. Their fist covered by water was extremely thick. From the surface, the water was rotating so fast that it couldn’t be seen by the naked eye, it was just like a drill. As soon as the fish came close, their 5ft bodies were sent flying out of the water. While it may not be able to send the larger fish such as the 10 ft long ones away, the water covered defense was virtually impenetrable. Try as they might, the fish couldn’t bite through it, and in the meantime the water was filled with the blood of the fish.
One of them within the water defense said, “I am unable to defend against the Ancient cannibal fish alone, we can only defend if Senior Sister Qin also makes a move.”
Yuan Xuemei smiled and said, “You practice the First Sky Holy Water tecnique, if you combine a little amount of your Qi with this, it will already make it hundreds of kilograms heavy. This defensive layer is still mixed with regular water, now imagine if it was made with all your Qi, it will be more than 10 times stronger!”
“How can it be that easy, this technique produces such a small amount of Qi that we have to combine it with water in times of battle, and now we also have to defend such a large area.” On the other side, a girl sporting a green robe who was similarly using both her hands to support the water layer, forced out a laugh.
In the midst of people talking, the water wall, just like a spiral cone, once again dived a few hundred meters.
“The monument is collapsing!”
“The smell is everywhere!”
“The fish have been taken down!”
Within the dark undercurrents of the water, below a 10m tall monument, a sudden shockwave burst out inside a group of ancient cannibal fish, killing a large amount of them.
Afterwards, a blade of light emerged, cutting down the cannibal fish left and right, they were continuously killed until there was a large mess of cannibal fish blood and parts.
The area was dark, with only a dim light showing the silhouettes in the fan shaped formation. With every move the creatures made, they were surrounded by what seemed to be numerous attacks that punched at them from every single angle. Coupled with the darkness and disorientation, the fish were unable to do anything and were thus beaten alive.
“This won’t work! There are too many of these creatures, even if we kill tens of them, we can’t kill them all.” Luo Hanshan relayed this message to the other three.
“This won’t be an easy challenge”, said Xu Jing in a difficult tone.
“What she says is right, constantly fighting them is of no use and it’s just a waste our time, everybody hurry up first, I’ll be right behind you.” The blade technique killed the fish one after the other, Ye Chen could clearly feel his Qi being rapidly used up, almost a third of it was already gone.
“How can that be?” said Zhu Mei as she disagreed
Luo Hanshan knew what Ye Chen meant and told Zhu Mei, “Don’t underestimate our Junior Brother, he’s the fiercest one among us, he could easily kill Ouyang Ming with a swift move.”
“Really?”
Zhu Mei did not entirely believe that this plan would work and hesitated for a bit, but still gave it her all along with Luo Hanshan. She had already made up her mind that she would quickly return at the first sign that Ye Chen was in danger.
After swallowing a Qi restoration pill, Ye Chen drew out his sword, unsheathing it in a quick and swift manner
“Wind sweeper!”
In an instant, the water spiralled straight up, and began to take the form of a large water dragon in the next moment. The creature summoned was extremely large, it began decimating the surrounding fish. The ‘pish’ sounds of blood spilling was unending as the ancient fishes fell, one after another.
After this move, half of Ye Chen’s Qi was consumed, but he still managed a faint smile as he thought, “Looks like once this is all done, I’ll have to go back to practicing the low-level techniques, or else I can’t muster the power for the more powerful ones.”
Right below, Zhu Mei looked at the scene, “I can’t believe that he was this skillful, it felt as if the blades of the water dragon could seriously injure me.”
Luo Hanshan gave a smile, “You might not believe it, but Ye Chen has learnt the sword intent, he is capable of easily dispatching those with the same level of skill as him. I’ve seen him take down three disciples who were around my level, they did not even stand a chance.”
Zhu Mei’s eyes were wide open as she said, “He’s already comprehended the sword intent? No wonder he’s so fierce. Previously, when North Snow Martial School’s sect master, Xue Wuren hadn’t comprehended the blade intent, he was only as strong as an inner elder, but once he comprehended the blade intent, his strength rose rapidly and he is now on par with Emerald Martial Palace’s Zhuang Qinxuan. And that too when no one has ever seen him go all out.”
Shortly, Ye Chen began to catch up.
But, at this time, there was a huge disturbance in the water, a 10m long, bright, and flashy palm made of Zhen Qi came at them and enveloped the four individuals.
Ye Chen was filled with killing intent as he sent out a sword attack.
Bang!
As the large sword Qi and the palm Qi made contact, a powerful explosion took place beneath the water.
