Everyone in the Beast Taming Sect looked at Lingxi suspiciously.
How dare a little girl say that she heard the secret of the mermaid?
How shameless!
However, the elder of the Beast Taming Sect quietly walked aside and contacted the sect leader.
Sure enough, the current situation is different from before they came out.
The rising sea level is actually related to the Demon Sect?
The elder returned to Ji Chengyuan's side and whispered a few words to him.
Ji Chengyuan didn't react much after hearing these words. What the Demon Sect was going to do wasn't the main concern for him. He only cared about whether he could make a contribution here and whether he could successfully become the leader in the future.
After a while, the sea level rose a lot.
Fortunately, people from other sects also gradually arrived.
Now that everyone was gathered, the leaders of each team gathered together and began to discuss countermeasures.
Even Lingxi and others’ master was one of them.
Lingxi looked at those people speechlessly, it was all formalism!
It’s already late, what’s there to discuss? Just jump into the water and fight!
However, these people probably also discovered that the situation was more serious than they imagined. They had just discussed it for a while when the sea level rose again.
Unless you see it firsthand, the feeling is never as strong. Now that I've experienced it firsthand, the pace of discussion seems to have accelerated significantly.
Finally, these people finally made a decision.
Most of the monks will go into the water to fight, while some will stay on top to build dams.
The sea level is rising too fast, which is unacceptable. Building a dam as a barrier can slow down the speed of the sea level rising.
After Elder Hu Peng finished discussing with the other leaders, he returned to his sect's disciples.
"Both missions have their own advantages and disadvantages. The underwater mission seems more demanding, but it does provide opportunities for slacking off. After all, the underwater world is so vast, it's easy to get distracted.
“The task of building a dam above the surface seems easier than underwater, but with so many people from the sects watching over each other, it’s not that easy to slack off.
"As a sect with a relatively shallow foundation, our Yuxuan Sect must lead by example, so most of the disciples of the Yuxuan Sect will have to go into the water."
However, these words were spoken to the sect's disciples, and were different for Lu Minxing.
When they arrived at Lu Minxing's place, Hu Peng put on a smile and said, "Master Lu, you can go wherever you want. It's your choice."
Lu Minxing thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll stay up there! Perhaps there will be alchemy tasks later, so it's better for me to stay up there."
"Okay, okay, no problem!" Hu Peng naturally agreed.
Lu Minxing originally thought that his wife would definitely be with him, but Nan Jinping thought for a moment and said, "I want to go in the water."
"What?" The others were all shocked.
"What am I doing on the shore? Are there wounded soldiers coming here and I want to use the music to heal them? I've already said that I'm here to fight!" said Nan Jinping.
"Then I will also—"
"Don't change it, just stay on the shore!" Lu Minxing was about to speak when he was interrupted by Nan Jinping.
"Master, don't worry. Leave Master's Wife to me! I will go down with you. I will protect Master's Wife!" Wei Tao patted his chest hurriedly.
Lu Minxing still respected his wife's choice and could only let her do as she pleased.
Now that the arrangements have been made, we must act swiftly. Those who need to enter the water should enter, and those who need to build dams should build them.
The monks were about to go into the water when suddenly a huge wave arose on the sea and swept towards everyone!
This is the mermaid from under the sea taking action!
These mermaids are not stupid. Seeing so many monks gathered on the shore, how could they not know that they are here to deal with them?
So they quietly prepared themselves underwater and suddenly attacked when these human monks had not reacted!
The monks have been here for so long, and the sea water has been calm except for the rise, which has made the monks relax their vigilance.
So the mermaid suddenly made a move, catching the monks off guard!
This time the mermaid succeeded.
The monks had originally wanted to prepare to go into the water, but they were swept by the waves and fell directly into the water!
The mermaids took the initiative and continued to attack while the monk who fell into the water had not yet reacted!
Some monks were hit by water arrows, some were trapped in water balls, and some were cut into pieces by water knives...
The human monks had a bad start!
Nan Jinping didn't react at first, but that cheap apprentice, Wei Tao, did! Because he always kept in mind the need to protect his master's wife, he remained vigilant. When the crisis struck, he reacted immediately and protected Nan Jinping.
Fortunately, those swept down by the sea were those who had originally planned to enter the water, so the original plan remained largely unchanged. The other monks also hurriedly began to build a dam. If not for others, then for themselves, this dam must be built quickly, lest they be the next to fall in!
Although Nan Jinping was also in the water now, she was protected when she came in, so the mermaids under the sea could not attack her.
Unlike other miserable cultivators, Nan Jinping launched a counterattack as soon as he got into the water!
"Wei Tao, cover your ears!"
Even after entering the water, Wei Tao stayed close to Nan Jinping. When he heard what Nan Jinping said, he quickly covered his ears with his hands.
But then he realized that this didn't work, so he changed his approach and used his spiritual power to block his ears.
As soon as Nan Jinping entered the water, she took out her harp. Seeing the mermaids around her rushing towards her, she immediately began to pluck the strings.
The advantages of sound cultivation in water are actually more obvious. After all, water's ability to transmit sound is stronger than air.
Nan Jinping only played a few notes, and all the mermaids who were about to rush towards her stopped.
Then, these mermaids covered their ears and bodies in pain.
Wei Tao is now deaf and can't hear anything.
He had never seen his master's wife fight before, so he didn't know how strong she was. But seeing how weak she looked, she probably wouldn't be very powerful, so he vowed to protect her to the death.
But now, seeing the behavior of these mermaids around, I realized that my master's wife is actually a very powerful person!
It is said that the power of group attacks is not as strong as that of single attacks, but this law does not seem to apply to Master's wife at all!
Look at these mermaids around, each of them looks like they are in excruciating pain!
Moreover, this attack seemed to be indiscriminate. Now it was not only the mermaids who were suffering. The monks who also fell into the water also looked painful, as if they could no longer bear it.
