Fortunately, Li Xingxuan managed to throw out another vine, pulling Lao Yao onto the Fourth Bridge.
"What exactly is that in the river...?"
Old Yao was soaking wet and reeked of the rotting corpses. He looked down at the river below with lingering fear.
"Water ghost!"
Anu said in a deep voice.
"Too many things have died in this river. The evil energy has condensed, and combined with the rich spiritual energy, it has formed water ghosts."
"This thing can summon wind and rain within a certain range and control things in the river to attack people."
"On the river, its ability to control the water..."
"Still above me!"
Anu's expression was very solemn.
She had already sensed it during their previous exchanges.
With that thing in the water, it's difficult for her to use her talents.
Because the water she controls will be forcibly controlled by the other party in the next second.
"The river has risen!"
Suddenly, Master Li shouted.
Everyone looked up and saw that the river below was rising at a visible speed.
At this rate, the flood will break the dam soon.
"The thing in the river is angry."
"Don't let the river overflow its banks! There are still people around!"
Blackfish pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice.
There are still some people alive in Sidaoqiao Village, and besides Sidaoqiao Village, there are several other villages and many residents in the surrounding area.
Once the dam breaks, those people are absolutely finished.
"It's alright, you guys step back a bit."
"Since it's a water ghost, then... I'll do it!"
Xu An took a deep breath and slowly drew his black sword.
Since he dared to take on the task of crossing the four bridges, he must have a certain degree of confidence.
The thing in the river knew they had the talent to control fire, and refused to come out no matter what.
but!
Is there nothing that can be done beneath the surface?
The sword in his hand was once the Dragon Slayer Sword!
Even a dragon would have to kneel and sing "Conquer" under this sword, let alone a mere water ghost.
"Will it work?"
Anu looked at Xu An with concern.
"It's alright, let him handle it."
"That sword in his hand is no ordinary sword!"
Master Li smiled slightly.
Others may not have noticed, but he had felt it since the last time he was in the Twin Towers area.
The sword in Xu An's hand...
There's definitely something to it!
The river roared, like a thousand horses galloping.
The murky river water crashed violently against the riverbank.
A village not far away.
"Quickly, pack your things, let's go, let's go!"
"Those damn night watchmen, we told them long ago that if we angered that thing in the river, it would definitely affect us."
A man woke up his sleeping wife, cursing and swearing.
People outside have already started banging gongs.
"The dikes are breached... The Yellow River is about to burst its banks!"
"Run!"
Someone shouted.
"As expected, they brought disaster upon us!"
"From now on, if you see a night patrolman, fight him to the death!"
"These sons of bitches, if you don't have the skills, don't take on the job! What are we going to do now? They've ruined us."
"Exactly! They couldn't win, so they just packed their bags and left. What about us?"
...
Shouts and curses rang out continuously, and many people hurriedly pulled their pants inside out and ran out.
Some even hurriedly grabbed their wives and ran, only to find, after running for a while, that it wasn't their wives.
Four Bridges.
Xu An stood by the bridge, coldly gazing at the river with his sword in hand.
The thing in the river has gone mad.
Whoosh!
Almost the instant the shadow approached, Xu An leaped off the bridge.
He slashed his sword downwards with fierce force.
"This sword... can slay dragons!"
Xu An chuckled softly.
Pshaw! ...
The sword blade cleaved through the water and pierced the dark shadow.
The sensation was like stabbing a large lump of jelly with a sword.
The thing below cried out in pain, letting out a piercing scream.
At the same time, the river surface seemed to be half-boiled, and began to churn violently.
Boom! ...
Huge waves crashed heavily against the four bridges.
This bridge, which has stood over the Yellow River for hundreds of years, was violently struck and cracked.
It looks like it could collapse at any moment.
The zombies in the river, dragging their swollen, rotting, and wet bodies, began to climb onto the bank.
but!
The riverbank was already surrounded by Zhang Lingxuan's flames.
Zombies kept crawling out, only to be burned by the flames.
The banks of the river have now become enormous crematoriums.
"The Primordial Cremation Sacred Body!"
"It's a waste that you're not finding a job at the crematorium."
Cao Meng looked at Zhang Lingxuan in astonishment.
Boom! ...
Another giant wave crashed heavily onto the bridge, and the four sections of the bridge began to tilt, with the cracks widening.
Beneath the river's surface, clumps of black material, like glue, were wrapped around Xu An's ankles.
These things were incredibly strong and tried to drag Xu An directly into the water.
"snort!"
"Those ignorant fools."
Xu An let out a cold snort, and his sword suddenly slashed down again.
This time, at the moment of the strike, spiritual energy gathered!
The sword fell in an instant, and the river surged.
The sword strike seemed to exude an aura of antiquity.
The thing underwater clearly sensed fear and quickly released Xu An's ankle, trying to escape.
But it was too late!
The sword's edge tore through the river's surface, ripping the thing apart.
