"Chen Huai, that's not what I meant." Qing Wu hurriedly explained, trying to calm Shen Huai's emotions, "Chen Yan will be fine. If she dies, we will be completely finished."

"The fact that we are still alive proves that Chen Yan definitely still has a glimmer of hope." Qing Wu said, raising his hand and patting Chen Huai's back.

Shen Huai keenly caught these words. He raised his eyes and stared at Qing Wu fiercely, "A glimmer of hope?"

When Qingwu saw Shen Huai's cold eyes, the worry on his face seemed to freeze for a moment, and then the corners of his lips seemed to be curving up -

Shen Huai reached out and grabbed his collar, anxiously asking: "Qing Wu, have you figured out something? Is there something you haven't told me?"

Qing Wu was stunned for a moment. He bit his lip, took a deep breath and said, "Chen Huai, calm down. I... my current strength... is simply not enough to support me in predicting the future. What's more, I just had a fortune-telling not long ago, and the hexagram showed a very bad omen. But didn't you say it was a lie from the heavens... So, my fortune-telling is no longer effective."

Upon hearing this, Shen Huai slowly loosened his collar, his expression becoming dazed.

It was as if my soul was sucked out of me all of a sudden.

Seeing this, Qingwu looked at him worriedly, wanting to say something comforting but not knowing how.

It took a long time for Shen Huai to get out of this emotion.

He placed the communication crystal stone carefully on his chest, so that he would be the first to know the reply from his sister.

After Shen Huai finished all this, he looked up at Qing Wu.

"Let's go."

"Where are you going?"

"Keep going."

"are you sure?"

"Sure."

Shen Huai looked up at the road ahead, his eyes dark and unclear.

The young man in white had already taken a step forward, while the young man in green seemed to be half a beat slower. By the time he reacted, a black light flashed on the hem of his clothes as he walked.

"Wait for me!" the young man in blue shouted.

…

Guiyuan Continent, Nanxiao Kingdom.

The black water in the Lingyan Forest broke through the barrier and spread outward like a tsunami.

Wu Maqing and others who were guarding outside the Lingyan Forest quickly boarded the spirit boat and flew into the air before they realized the danger was coming, barely avoiding this thrilling moment.

"The barrier is broken!" someone shouted in horror.

"Then Miss Shen..." another person continued in a trembling voice.

Everyone's faces instantly became extremely solemn, and they all leaned over to look at the Lingyan Forest below.

The scene before them left them dumbfounded—

The originally lush forest has now completely disappeared, replaced by a huge black lake, like a bottomless abyss, emitting a heart-pounding dark atmosphere.

They opened their eyes wide and searched desperately for Chen Yan in the black lake, but they could not find any trace of her.

Wu Maqing's face turned pale instantly.

"Miss..."

Someone pointed at the scene below and said anxiously, "Elder Wu Ma, look! This black water is still expanding!"

An elder said with a serious expression, "At this rate, in less than half an hour, the black water will spread to Nanxiao Country, which is closest to Lingyan Forest!"

Wu Maqing's face darkened. "Quick, send a message to those who are dispersing the people, and tell them to take the people away as soon as possible!"

"Okay!" Someone immediately went to make the call.

"Something's wrong. This black water is actually suspended."

"It wants to attack us!"

"Hurry, start the spirit boat!" An elder's face was as pale as paper, with cold sweat on his forehead. His voice became extremely sharp due to extreme nervousness, as if it could pierce people's eardrums.

And at this time——

Countless balls of black water attacked the huge spirit boat in the air!

"Open quickly!" Wu Ma Qing's pupils shrank slightly when he saw this. He summoned weapons and gave orders to the people who were operating the spirit boat.

He raised his weapon and slashed at the invading black water group!

There was only a loud 'bang'. Although these black water balls were slightly blocked by his power attack, it was only delayed for a short second. Then they penetrated the spirit boat from all directions in an instant at an astonishing speed, like lightning!

In an instant, everyone on the spirit boat was stunned, their eyes widened, and their faces were filled with unconcealable fear.

“Ahhh…”

A man was not careful for a moment and was possessed by black water.

There was a 'sizzling' sound of corrosion, and in an instant, most of his body was corroded by the black water, and the turbid blood dripped to the ground, making people's scalp numb.

This scene stimulates everyone's attention!

"Defend quickly!" Wu Maqing said in a deep voice.

Everyone quickly came to their senses, their hearts beating faster, and they defended themselves in an almost panic.

At the same time, the control panel of the spirit boat was destroyed by the black water. Now the spirit boat was not only uncontrollable, but also falling down.

"It's over!"

Everyone showed a look of despair.

Wu Maqing's back was also invaded by the black water, and his face was distorted with pain. He could clearly sense that there was an invisible force in the black water attacking his sea of ​​consciousness.

It seems like... it's going to invade his consciousness!

He gritted his teeth, gripped the weapon tightly, and continued to attack the black water groups.

He took advantage of the break in the battle to turn around and glance at them, "I have another spirit boat here, you guys go quickly, leave this to me!"

After saying that, Wu Ma Qing summoned a spirit boat from the storage space.

"Elder Wu Ma, let's go together!"

"Stop talking nonsense and go!" Wu Maqing said coldly. At this time, his eyes were already bloodshot, and a hint of black light flashed faintly.

Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to harden their hearts and jump onto the new spirit boat.

Some of them quickly manipulated the spirit boat pole, trying to leave as quickly as possible!

But those black water groups are chasing them relentlessly!

There was even a ball of black water that hit the tail of the spirit boat like a bomb, and in an instant, the tail of the spirit boat exploded.

Everyone's pupils shrank, and the despair in their eyes deepened.

They can't escape!

"Fight them!" a young disciple said gritting his teeth.

Seeing countless black water groups coming, everyone's faces turned pale. They could only pretend to be calm and fight to the death!

At this moment——

The melodious sound of the piano, like flowing water, suddenly came.

"Thousands of mountains are covered with snow, and flames stretch endlessly. I tell the stars and the moon." A warm and pleasant voice came slowly.

Everyone widened their eyes in astonishment, seeing that the black water balls attacking them seemed to be restrained by an invisible powerful force.

The next moment, the sound of "bang bang bang" was heard!

Those originally hideous black water balls suddenly exploded like gorgeous fireworks, stirring up countless stunning fireworks.

Everyone was stunned by the spectacular sight, and they looked in the direction of the sound in confusion.

"This is……"
