"Explode!"
Under the water, the currents were turbulent. Luo Cheng, carrying Jin Yuxi, perford the Mysterious Wind Explosion Technique, piercing through the water with full force. The extre speed tore open a vacuum fissure in the water!
"Luo Cheng, they’re catching up!"
Jin Yuxi exclaid in alarm.
Most of the giant-toothed flying fish were drawn away by Mu Qinglian. Still, dozens to nearly a hundred giant-toothed flying fish pursued Luo Cheng and Yuxi relentlessly.
Hiss hiss hiss hiss...
Before they even got close, these giant-toothed flying fish suddenly opened their mouths wide, spraying out arrows of water imbued with eerie Demon Qi.
These water arrows possessed the power of a thousand catties, causing the water to explode wherever they struck, creating alarming miniature whirlpools!
The strength of a Four-star Demon Beast was comparable to that of an Awakening Vein Realm strongman, also mastering the technique of releasing Demon Qi from their bodies!
Top-tier Four-star Demon Beasts could even alter the weather within a certain range, summoning winds and rain!
"Star Sinking!"
Luo Cheng’s eyes glead sharply as he swung his sword, the brilliant Sword Qi pulverizing the incoming Demon Energy Water Arrows, sending the nearby giant-toothed flying fish into a dizzy disarray!
Swoosh! Swoosh...
A few giant-toothed flying fish broke through the turbulent currents, charging forward. Their ghostly pale eyes locked firmly on Luo Cheng and Yuxi, brimming with murderous intent.
"Kill!"
For Luo Cheng, a few giant-toothed flying fish didn’t constitute much of a threat. The terrifying part was being surrounded by the demon fish school.
Luo Cheng imdiately surged his Essence Energy, repeatedly swinging the Thunder Hidden Sword.
"Golden Flow Suppression!"
Jin Yuxi also targeted a giant-toothed flying fish, fiercely swinging her leg.
Boom boom boom...
Blades of sword light shone like heavenly flowers blooming. The water weakened the Sword Qi’s power, and coupled with Luo Cheng’s injuries, the Sword Qi could only heavily wound the giant-toothed flying fish, unable to kill in one strike!
The golden stream of light kicked out by Jin Yuxi seed towering at over ten ters, its might astonishing, yet its attack was almost negligible, barely pushing the giant-toothed flying fish back, without wounding them in the slightest.
At this mont, a large group of giant-toothed flying fish burst out from the chaotic currents.
Luo Cheng furrowed his brows deeply. He sensed a continuous wave of giant-toothed flying fish approaching and imdiately said:
"We can’t get entangled any longer! Otherwise, it will be even harder to escape. Yuxi, let’s surface with all our might! You go ahead; I’ll cover the rear!!"
After a prolonged execution of the Mysterious Wind Explosion Technique and the intense fight, Luo Cheng’s Essence Energy was consud by eighty to ninety percent. If besieged by the giant-toothed flying fish, the consequences would be unimaginable!
If Mu Qinglian gets free, their chances of survival would plunge to zero!
"Alright!"
Although worried about Luo Cheng, Jin Yuxi knew the situation was dire and spoke no more, kicking out a mighty golden light to repel the few giant-toothed flying fish ahead, and ascended with all her strength.
"Exterminate them for !"
At this crucial mont, Luo Cheng held nothing back. A terrifying sharpness carrying a killing intent erupted, shattering the surrounding river water into pieces!
"Divine Wind Absolute Kill!"
With a single sword strike, a violent Sword Qi Tornado shot forth, spiraling straight through, causing a massive vortex, continuously shredding the approaching giant-toothed flying fish.
Amid the incessant hissing, a spray of blood mist blossod in the water!
Jin Yuxi happened to glance back at this mont, her eyes widening.
Throughout the journey, her heart had never found peace.
Luo Cheng’s power seed limitless, breaking her understanding ti and again!
Even after such prolonged combat, he could unleash such a powerful killing strike!
She sensed that each Sword Qi in the Sword Qi Tornado could easily annihilate her!
But Luo Cheng’s expression was grave.
With this single strike, his Essence Energy within him depleted by another large chunk; he estimated he could not hold out much longer before his Essence Energy was entirely exhausted!
Before that happened, he had to break through the encirclent and leave Luoyan River!
"Go!"
Without any hesitation, Luo Cheng turned and surged upwards.
The two had only ascended several hundred ters when another large swarm of giant-toothed flying fish pursued.
"Divine Wind Absolute Kill!"
"Golden Flow Hidden Break!"
"Five Mountains Condensing Cauldron!"
Luo Cheng and Jin Yuxi, disregarding their injuries, simultaneously executed their most fearso strikes while rapidly ascending, hurling them backward.
Rumble!
Underwater, it was as if thunder roared, exploding wildly, annihilating most of the giant-toothed flying fish, but also shaking them unstable, their vitality fluctuating.
"Here they co again!"
Just after annihilating a group of giant-toothed flying fish, Jin Yuxi was horrified to find another large swarm chasing, giant mouths shooting a vast spray of Demon Energy Water Arrows!
"Ignore them! We must break through with all our might! Once we escape to the surface, they should be unable to do anything to us!"
Luo Cheng felt all nine of his Essence Energy Mansions on the verge of exhaustion, not daring to delay, his fist smashing most water arrows, pulling Jin Yuxi by her delicate waist, executing the Mysterious Wind Explosion Technique with full force.
Boom! Boom! Boom...
The explosion of water currents dramatically boosted their speed, like two streaks of black lightning racing upward.
A thousand ters!
Five hundred ters!
Three hundred ters!
Luo Cheng could already see the sunlight filtering down through the river surface!
At that mont, dozens of giant-toothed flying fish closed in, their broad fins on either side of their bodies flapping intensely, like teors, chasing closely behind.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh...
So giant-toothed flying fish opened their mouths to unleash Demon Energy Water Arrows.
"We must hold out!"
Luo Cheng knew that stopping to counterattack would only accelerate the consumption of his Essence Energy, becoming even more dangerous, so he ignored them and kept racing.
Rumble...
Demon Energy Water Arrows continuously bombarded their Protective Essence Energy.
Pff!
Jin Yuxi spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted on the spot.
Luo Cheng’s lips also kept bleeding, with cracks spreading across his Protective Essence Energy, ready to shatter anyti. Both his Essence Energy and body were reaching their limits.
"Just hold on a bit longer!"
With trendous spiritual willpower, Luo Cheng forced himself to stay conscious, mobilizing the last of his Essence Energy to maintain the highest speed.
The giant-toothed flying fish school drew nearer and nearer.
A hundred ters!
Fifty ters!
Thirty ters!
Twenty ters!
Row after row of giant-toothed flying fish opened their bloody maws, ready to devour them.
"This is the decisive mont! Explode!!!"
Determined, Luo Cheng gathered his last Essence Energy, once again using the Mysterious Wind Explosion Technique.
Boom!
The water exploded as their figures shot upwards.
The trailing giant-toothed flying fish closed in, ripping their bodies into shreds.
Yet, the image they tore disintegrated in an instant; it was just Luo Cheng’s decoy clone, split with Mist Shadow Step at the last mont!
The next mont.
With a splash, Luo Cheng erged from the river, holding Jin Yuxi.
They were out!
Feeling the warmth of the morning sun, Luo Cheng was overjoyed.
Hiss hiss hiss hiss...
The giant-toothed flying fish, however, refused to give up, flapping their fins and surging from the water, determined to swallow them whole.
However, while they could fly briefly with Demon Qi, their speed was far inferior to when in water. Luo Cheng easily pulled kiloters ahead with a single flash, leaving them to fall back into the river, impotently raging, spewing out Demon Energy Water Arrows.
Luo Cheng retreated to a safe distance and finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Finally safe!"
Luo Cheng felt this night had been longer than any day.
Checking his internal condition, Luo Cheng couldn’t help but feel a sense of surviving a calamity.
At this mont, the nine Essence Energy Mansions within him and all fifty-four Xuan Veins were completely empty!
The impacts from blocking the water arrows had also caused serious internal injuries, and he dreaded what might have happened had they delayed any further!
But now wasn’t the ti to relax.
With his Essence Energy exhausted and injured, even a random Awakening Vein Realm practitioner, let alone Mu Qinglian, could pose a threat to him!
Taking out a few Spirit Pills to recover Essence Energy, Luo Cheng cast a cold glance at the Luoyan River below, then whisked away into the distance with Jin Yuxi in tow.
