Chapter 34 Sweeping the Court and Clearing the Cave, A Single Sword Strike on a Fleeting Bloom
In the icy seawater, Chen Ye swam swiftly like a fish. With the help of his water control talent, the coldness contained in the water had no effect on him, and his speed was no slower than that on land.
Before long, Chen Ye quietly approached the hijacking ship, but instead of boarding at the bow, he went directly to the stern.
At this moment, on the deck, the Zhou family members were firing crossbow bolts continuously at the Gong family fleet.
They realized that the Gong family had probably made preparations in advance, secretly placing several late-stage Spirit Condensation cultivators in the fleet.
However, it doesn't matter. As long as Tu Chishe and his spirit pet can kill Gong Qingru, even if more late-stage Spirit Condensation cultivators come, it will be useless. On the contrary, it can greatly weaken the Gong family's strength.
"Hey, Third Brother, how did that kid manage to dodge my attack?"
Just now, the Zhou family member nudged his companion with his elbow.
He still couldn't figure it out. The Flame Burst Arrow was extremely fast, and it was hundreds of feet away. Ordinary Spirit Cultivators simply couldn't have such keen perception.
"Why think so much? Anyway, that kid has already fallen into the sea. Are you afraid he'll swim over?" the cultivator called Third Brother said impatiently.
"Hehe, of course not..."
The Zhou family member chuckled and touched his nose.
Even an eight-year-old child in the Abyss Sea knows that the seawater contains cold energy, especially in the deep sea far from the islands. The cold energy is so strong that if a cultivator who has cultivated spiritual energy falls in, his heart meridian will be frozen after just a few breaths without taking medicine or other measures to avoid the cold!
Just then, he seemed to hear a noise and subconsciously turned his head, only to see a familiar figure appear ten feet behind him without him noticing.
"How is that possible?!"
The Zhou family members looked incredulous. This person had clearly fallen into the sea just a few breaths ago, so how could he suddenly appear on this spirit ship?
However, Chen Ye gave him no time to consider. With a thought, the Jade Pattern Spear flew out of his hand, transforming into a sharp, cold light in the air. It arrived in an instant, covering several feet, and accurately struck the man's brow.
"Boom!!"
It was as if he had been struck hard by a heavy hammer; the man's head exploded instantly.
"Cheng An!!"
Seeing his younger brother die tragically, the third brother next to him couldn't help but cry out in shock. He hurriedly took out a small blue shield from his storage bag, but he was still a little too slow.
Pong!
With another muffled thud, the small shield with the blue face fell to the ground, and the two headless corpses also swayed and fell down.
"Cheng'an? The third brother!"
"Someone's come up here! Kill him!"
After the two people died tragically, the other members of the Zhou family finally reacted and hastily unleashed their weapons to strike Chen Ye. However, a large amount of black mist suddenly emerged around Chen Ye's body, directly enveloping him.
After using the Illusionary Mist Technique to kill the enemy, Chen Ye realized the true value of this spell.
Although it is just an ordinary spell, if used properly, it can be just as effective as some high-grade spells.
Therefore, when he arrived, Chen Ye had already consumed his lifespan to forcibly raise the Illusionary Mist Technique to the minor completion level. Once he used it, almost half of the deck was shrouded in black mist!
Within the range of the Illusionary Mist Technique, Chen Ye moved even faster, dodging the magical weapons launched by the Zhou family members with a few dodges, and then directly used the Spirit Annihilation Finger to kill them!
"Bang bang bang!"
Within the black mist, bursts of blood erupted intermittently. Of the nine Zhou family cultivators in total, nearly half were killed by Chen Ye in the blink of an eye.
"Damn it, this black fog is so eerie, we can't see anyone at all!"
"I can control the wind!"
Someone let out a low growl and quickly formed hand seals, attempting to cast a spell.
This is the weakness of ordinary spells like the Illusionary Mist Spell. Although it can quickly condense a large area of mist around, it cannot be fixed and can be dispersed by a gust of wind.
But why would Chen Ye give him the chance to break the spell?
Just as the Zhou family cultivator was about to complete the spell...
hum~~
A powerful surge of spiritual energy emanated from Chen Ye and spread outwards in all directions in an instant.
If this sound were to fall into one's ears, it would be like a thunderclap crashing to the ground, and if it were to affect one's soul, it could cause one to lose one's mind, collapse one's consciousness, and tremble with fear!
The Zhou family cultivator was just one hand seal away from casting the spell, but as this invisible wave passed through his body, he froze on the spot, and the spell was forcibly terminated.
A powerful beam of energy shot out from the black mist, piercing the man's chest with a "poof," leaving a fist-sized bloody hole.
Before his consciousness faded, he had only one thought left: Why am I so slow at casting spells...?
After a few breaths, the black mist slowly dissipated.
On the deck, the corpses of Zhou family cultivators lay scattered about.
Nine people died, each with either a hole piercing their chest or their head blown off; their deaths were all incredibly gruesome.
If we include the one Chen Ye killed in the cabin earlier, all ten members of the Zhou family sent this time have died at Chen Ye's hands!
However, Chen Ye was also slightly out of breath at this moment.
Just now, Chen Ye launched a soul attack on five cultivators whose cultivation levels were higher than his own. Even though his soul strength had exceeded the late stage of the Spirit Condensation Realm, he still felt a sense of powerlessness.
However, this is not a huge strain, and you can recover after two days of rest.
A series of hurried footsteps came from inside the cabin, and a dozen or so cultivators, each wielding a magical artifact, rushed onto the deck.
The most powerful cultivators among the tribulation cultivators went to attack the Gong family's fleet, while the remaining ones were at most at the fifth level of the Spirit Condensation Realm, and the weakest were not even comparable to Chen Ye.
Chen Ye remained indifferent, as if those in front of him were moving human targets, one point and one shot, two in one, easily taking care of them all in no time.
Afterwards, Chen Ye went down into the cabin and quickly circled around, sweeping away several of the robber cultivators hiding below before returning to the deck.
After this massacre, Chen Ye had wiped out all the Jie Xiu and Zhou family members on the ship.
Unfortunately, although those cultivators who had undergone tribulation had magical artifacts provided by the Zhou family, they themselves did not possess anything of value. On the contrary, the Zhou family cultivators all carried storage bags.
Chen Ye carefully collected the spoils of war and was about to leave when a cold gust of air suddenly descended from above.
He couldn't help but look up and saw that, at some point, ice crystal flowers had condensed in the sky. With the intense spiritual pressure rising steadily, these ice crystal flowers shattered into streaks of frost under the pressure, all converging towards the figure in the green dress at the center.
"A fleeting moment of brilliance!!"
A cold, sharp shout suddenly rang out, and endless frost condensed into a dazzling sword shadow, like a tidal wave crashing against the shore, sweeping across the sky and slashing through the air towards the opposing Red Serpent!
Seeing the terrifying sword energy rushing towards him, Tu Chishe was terrified. He cursed the Zhou family's intelligence as unreliable while summoning a low-grade spirit shield to protect himself.
