Chapter 3041: Fraught with Danger

Qiong Qi broke through the formation, bringing Ye Liuyun and the others through the formation ahead, then they also stopped to rest for a while.

"The pressure here is getting greater and greater; I estimate that if we keep going, I won't be able to hold out much longer."

"But this formation here, you probably can't handle it yourself!"

Qiong Qi also began to discuss worriedly with Ye Liuyun.

"Just do your best! If we really can't, we'll go a bit slower; I'll pass on the information I see to you, and you help me analyze it."

Qiong Qi could only nod in agreement: "That's all we can do."

Thus Qiong Qi rallied his spirits again and led them to continue scouting.

Qiong Qi held on for another two hours, but finally he could no longer endure.

Ye Liuyun then stored Qiong Qi and Ye Tiandao together in the Space World, then released two Martial Cultivators at the Return to Unity Eighth Layer and three at the Return to Unity Seventh Layer, letting them keep a distance from him.

That way, if they fall into the formation, they can help break it from outside.

These five strong cultivators have high realms and strong bodies, so they are not as sensitive to the pressure here.

And Ye Liuyun and his clone also need to fill their surroundings with Spatial Power to resist the pressure here.

Under the sea trench ahead, there is a patch of seaweed that doesn't grow very tall.

Ye Liuyun feared that the seaweed might conceal the formation, so he stopped in front of it and examined it carefully for a long time, but found nothing unusual.

Qiong Qi also received Ye Liuyun's message, and likewise saw no problem.

Long Nv was the same; she also felt nothing unusual.

"Then let's give it a try!"

Ye Liuyun also didn't let the other Martial Cultivators try, worrying they weren't vigilant enough to notice danger.

But after he walked a stretch forward and found no danger, he also let the others follow along.

But as soon as those people followed in, the seaweed suddenly began to grow wildly, wrapping around them.

A huge sea snake also leapt out from a cave on the side of the nearby sea trench, flying swiftly toward them to attack.

These seaweeds are very similar to Magic Vines, except they aren't as tough and have no sharp thorns.

But they are numerous and grow fast; pulling off one strand just causes several more to wrap around, impossible to remove completely, and soon they entangle the people like zongzi.

Ye Liuyun and the others immediately thought of using True Essence to prop up a protective shield.

But the seaweed easily pierced through it.

Ye Liuyun also tried using Golden Crow Holy Fire to prop up a shield, which had only a slight effect.

But he is now in the deep sea; using fire to prop up a shield would quickly be extinguished by seawater, requiring him to continually release flame power.

Only Long Nv is relatively safe; the seaweed does not attack her.

It's unknown whether the seaweed is avoiding her Blue Sea Armor or can discern that she is a sea beast.

Seeing the others entangled by seaweed, Long Nv immediately revealed her true form, went to meet the sea snake, and blocked it.

Under her bloodline pressure, that sea snake's cultivation was directly suppressed to the Return to Unity Second Layer, while Long Nv, bolstered by her Blue Sea Battle Armor, easily pressed it under her claws and bit off its head in one bite.

After Long Nv killed that sea snake, she returned to help tear apart the seaweed.

Although the seaweed does not attack her, it keeps growing wildly in front of her, blocking her approach and making it hard for her to get close.

Several other strong cultivators also strained to tear the seaweed, retreating backward.

The clone also covered his whole body with Golden Crow Holy Fire and was the first to retreat.

Ye Liuyun also used his Golden Pupil to take Long Nv back into the Space World, so she wouldn't be isolated and ambushed.

Then he protected himself with Golden Crow Holy Fire and hastily retreated.

The seaweed didn't pursue them; after they retreated, the seaweed immediately shrank back, returning to its previous state.

"Master, this seaweed is poisonous!"

A Martial Cultivator cried out in surprise, discovering that their arms and necks had been cut with small openings, now feeling a numb itch.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun and his clone also felt that the toxin source inside their bodies was absorbing the toxin that had seeped into the skin.

The seaweed's toxicity is not strong, but it causes a numb sensation; over time, one would be trapped to death in the seaweed.

However, Ye Liuyun didn't want to waste time; he and his clone immediately helped the others draw out the toxins from their bodies.

Long Nv had trained in the Ten Thousand Poison Heart Sutra, so she could neutralize it herself, and he didn't need to worry.

Afterwards, Ye Liuyun released the Magic Vine again.

"Go pull these seaweeds out by the roots!"

Ye Liuyun directly commanded the Magic Vine.

The Magic Vine immediately burrowed into the seabed.

Soon, a tremor came from the seabed, and then the seaweed on the surface was pulled off piece by piece; not long after, the entire seabed was cleared clean, all the seaweed disappeared.

The Magic Vine quickly jumped up from underground and reported to Ye Liuyun: "It's a half-demonic seaweed."

Magic Vine quickly jumped out from underground and reported to Ye Liuyun: "It's a half-transformed demon seaweed."

"It contains a lot of energy, and also poison."

"A half-demonic seaweed?"

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment; they actually hadn't gone far, yet a half-demonic sea beast appeared here, so ahead must be even more dangerous.

Ye Liuyun stored the Magic Vine, letting it stand ready to rescue at any moment, then called everyone to continue forward.

Ye Liuyun took back the Magic Vine, had it stand ready to rescue at any moment, then called everyone to continue forward.

Qiong Qi immediately called for Ye Liuyun to stop.

Then Qiong Qi directed Ye Liuyun to help him carefully observe the situation ahead.

After Ye Liuyun looked for a while, Qiong Qi finally confirmed that there was another formation at the location of the sea snake's corpse, but that formation had no effect on sea beasts.

After Ye Liuyun looked for a while, Qiong Qi finally confirmed that there was also a formation at the location of the sea serpent's corpse, but that formation had no effect on sea beasts.

If Ye Liuyun and the others go to collect that sea snake, they would very likely mistakenly enter the formation.

Just go around from the two sides.

Qiong Qi finally also confirmed the Dao.

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, also released another clone, letting both clones guard the rear, and also notified the Ancient Demon Guard and the Demon Race, having them prepare for battle.

He also divided those fifty Martial Cultivator experts among the clones as a precaution.

Afterwards, he also released two Ancient Demon Puppets to scout ahead.

Now even he doesn't dare to walk at the very front.

He also had Black Tiger and Illusion Hand take human form, guarding by his side, ready to unleash Black and White Light.

Come on, everyone just maintain this formation and stay ready to act at any moment.

Only after Ye Liuyun had arranged everything did he continue forward.

But they hadn't gone far before encountering a school of slender silver small fish, each with a spear-like spine on its back.

These small fish swarmed together, densely blocking the bottom of the sea trench, swimming toward Ye Liuyun and them.

Use shields to defend!

Ye Liuyun called out, then took out some military shields and distributed them to everyone.

Everyone held up two shields, gathering together to form a shield wall in a circle, to prevent being attacked by that school of small fish.

Schools of small fish often appear in the sea; Ye Liuyun and them had seen them before.

Previously, this kind of smaller fish would never attack them.

But appearing in this kind of place, they couldn't be sure, so they could only defend first.
