Underwater, a tremendous crashing sound echoed.
The once tranquil river surface was suddenly torn apart by an invisible force. The water churned, and the waves roared into the sky like angry beasts, tearing the calm river surface into countless fragments.
Amidst the surging waves, three enormous shadows burst forth with deafening roars.
Their gaze pierced through the layers of water, revealing the shadow's true form, sending chills down everyone's spines.
It was a three-headed, enormous monster with four legs and a long tail. Its appearance was similar to that of a crocodile, but its size far exceeded that of any known crocodile creature.
Its enormous body is tens of meters long and covered with black scales as hard as iron, which reflect a cold light in the dim light.
The scales are arranged tightly without any gaps, like a natural armor.
Perhaps due to the impact with the air wall, their bodies were in pain, and at this moment their heads were raised high, their eyes, as big as human heads, were bloodshot and their ferocity was fully revealed.
On the raft, Xiao Wujie trembled and involuntarily took half a step back.
Chu Liyue's slender hands instantly braced against his waist, pulling him into her arms.
"Sweetie, are you alright?"
Taking a slight breath, Xiao Wujie shook his head at her, but his face turned pale.
The three-headed monster was enormous, and its strength was far beyond imagination. He was caught off guard and almost had his air barrier smashed through.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The team consisted of elites selected from top organizations, possessing exceptional qualities. After a moment of shock, they quickly regained their composure.
He unleashed a barrage of fire from his submachine gun, bullets flying from the muzzle like they were free, creating deafening gunshots.
But to everyone's horror, the dense barrage of bullets hitting the monster did not produce the expected blood splatter; instead, it sparked and produced a piercing screeching sound as sparks flew from the scales covering its body.
Amidst the hail of bullets, a dazzling streak of light shot past and struck a monster squarely in the eye.
Amidst the flying blood and flesh, thick mist billowed from the monster's nostrils, and a shrill roar emanated from its enormous mouth, enough to swallow a third of the fleet.
On a raft in the group, Leng Ruxue gracefully tossed her long hair and smiled.
But Xiao Wujie's gaze suddenly sharpened; Leng Ruxue's actions had clearly driven the monster completely mad.
A deafening roar erupted from its massive maw, and sharp teeth protruded from its mouth like rows of gleaming daggers.
The thick, powerful claws slammed into the water, creating huge waves that rushed straight toward the raft.
A bright light shone in his eyes, and an invisible wall of energy, carrying a raging storm, hurtled towards the rampaging monster.
The deafening collision resounded once more, and the three-headed monster's body was instantly sent flying backward, crashing into the water and creating a towering splash.
A thin layer of sweat appeared on Xiao Wujie's forehead, and his face was solemn. The impact of the air wall alone was not enough to kill these monsters.
However, this is only the outer perimeter of Old Black Mountain, and he must conserve his strength and cannot easily use those powerful killing moves.
"Use the propulsion of the water waves to stabilize the hull and move at full speed!"
Chu Liyue's slender arms tightly embraced Xiao Wujie's trembling body, her dignified and sharp gaze fixed on the direction the fleet was heading, and she spoke coldly.
Turning back, she reached out with a touch of tenderness to wipe the sweat from Xiao Wujie's brow, and spoke softly:
"Sweetie, can you still hold on?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wujie immediately nodded. He was only using his killing move; these three things were no match for him.
Feeling slightly relieved, Chu Liyue calmly spoke up:
“Sweetie, there’s a narrow passage ahead. These monsters are huge, so moving around in the narrow passage won’t be as easy as it is now.”
“My idea is to avoid engaging them, lure them into a narrow passage, freeze them with your freezing magic, and let the fleet use the water waves generated by their movement to accelerate forward and reach the destination as soon as possible.”
Do you think it's feasible?
Xiao Wujie's eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly nodded, believing that the plan was highly feasible.
Before the three-headed monster could catch up, he couldn't resist reaching out to hug Chu Liyue's neck and giving her a light peck on her luscious lips.
"Sister is amazing, I love her so much."
Her usually deep eyes were now glistening with tears, which stirred Chu Liyue's heart.
Chu Nanfeng, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but rub his forehead.
No matter how big the storm, it can't stop you two from showing off your love.
He lowered his head and gently nuzzled against Chu Liyue's chest a few times. Immediately, Xiao Wujie withdrew the unreserved dependence in his eyes, which was replaced by a cold and fierce glint.
His gaze, fixed on the roaring monster chasing after him, grew increasingly cold and somber.
Anyone who disturbs his sister's doting on him deserves to die!
Especially those who are ugly and have a bad temper.
He immediately showed these bastards who the boss really was!
On the deep green, winding river, the raft team sped towards a narrow section of the river ahead, splashing water everywhere from their sterns.
At the end of the line, Xiao Wujie stood tall, his aura astonishing. An invisible pure energy emanated from his body, causing the surrounding air currents to surge and the mountain mist to be completely dispersed.
The three-headed monster was enraged by the barrier of air; its enormous pupils were filled with savagery and violence, and it roared deafeningly as it charged forward with its massive jaws agape.
Even though they were already battered and bruised, they became even more ferocious.
Standing on the raft, Xiao Wujie's eyes were cold and deep, his chest rose and fell slightly, and he couldn't help but exhale a few heavy breaths.
This thing was incredibly strong; the impact of crashing into the air wall made his lungs tremble.
With her arms tightly wrapped around Xiao Wujie's waist and her cold eyes fixed straight ahead, Chu Liyue suddenly spoke:
"Sweetie, that's enough!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wujie immediately flicked his finger, and the three-headed monster, which had not yet fully caught up, was instantly thrown backward by the powerful air wall.
Its massive body crashed into the water, sending a huge spray of water sweeping towards the stern.
Just as the three monsters squeezed into the narrow passage, Xiao Wujie leaped into the air, his eyes gleaming with a cold light.
As their hands met, an endless chill burst forth.
The dark blue ice instantly covered the riverbed behind them and spread out rapidly.
One after another, ice blades rose from the ground, reflecting streaks of cold light like a mirror reflecting the rampant cold air.
At the very front of the ice layer are three lifelike ice sculptures of monsters. Beneath the solid ice, the monsters have four claws outstretched, sharp teeth protruding, and their pupils still display wildness and ferocity, yet they can no longer move an inch.
Amidst the towering waves stirred up by the monster, the fleet propelled itself forward, but everyone's gaze was fixed on the god-like figure above, filled with uncontrollable trembling.
Among the crowd, even the usually composed Ye Jinyu's gaze trembled slightly. In a flash, she lowered her eyes, concealing the emotions within them.
With a quick movement of his feet, Xiao Wujie landed steadily on the raft, one hand in his pocket, looking back and exhaling a breath of cold air.
As her black hair danced in the wind, she leaned into Chu Liyue's arms and softly called out "Sister" in a dependent voice.
Nestled among the mountains and atop the rushing torrents, this scene appears exceptionally beautiful.
