As Gu Xi and Ai Si's mental energy surged, the energy flowing beneath the ice path weakened further and further, and soon disappeared completely without a trace.
Gradually, the nearby seawater returned to calm, leaving only a few barely perceptible ripples gently undulating.
"These ripples, they should be alright, right?"
Gu Xi muttered to herself, her eyes fixed on the rippling sea.
Although it looks like just ordinary ripples, who knows if there are hidden secrets inside?
After all, Ais had just shown her that turbulent waters could very well originate from small eddies.
"Plop! There's no turbulence now, so it should be fine. But it's best to check again with your mental energy just to be on the safe side," Ai Si said cautiously from the side, hearing Gu Xi's mutterings.
Gu Xi nodded, turned around and stared intently at the ripples on the sea, not daring to relax for a moment.
Then, she released her mental energy again, probing towards the sea below the ripples.
She only descended a short distance, but her mental energy felt as if it had touched something.
Immediately afterwards, a strange, unusual feeling suddenly returned.
"No, something's not right." Gu Xi's expression instantly turned serious, and his voice became solemn.
"Splash! Is it more than just energy fluctuations?" Flame Scale stretched its neck, its eyes fixed on the water's surface.
Flamescale's beak was that of a crow. As soon as it finished speaking, the originally calm ripples suddenly began to spin wildly, for reasons unknown.
In an instant, tiny whirlpools quickly formed, spinning faster and faster, and the roar of the swirling water grew louder and louder.
The surrounding seawater seemed to be caught in a huge disaster, helplessly sucked into the whirlpool, and eventually the small whirlpools were rolled into a large whirlpool, which eventually formed a powerful attraction.
"Oh no! Ais, Flamescale, protect everyone!"
Gu Xi shouted, her voice becoming shrill due to the sudden situation.
After shouting, she rushed towards the chubby little balls without hesitation.
Hearing Gu Xi's shout, the little chubby balls panicked and frantically moved their round bodies across the ice, trying to retreat as quickly as possible.
However, the vortex's suction was too strong, making it impossible for the few chubby little balls with only A-level mental power to stand upright.
Suddenly, the suction force of the vortex increased dramatically, and Little Fatty Ball 22 was pulled tightly by the powerful vortex suction force, dragging it quickly towards the center of the vortex.
"Oh no!" Gu Xi's eyes widened suddenly.
Er Er was desperately resisting the powerful vortex suction. Its fingerless fish hand frantically scratched at the ice, tearing its hand and drawing out faint traces of blood.
The bloodstains left streaks on the ice, which were particularly glaring.
Pulled by the vortex's suction, Er'er was like a helpless doll, her body uncontrollably crashing into the ice railing with a dull thud.
The other chubby little balls cried out in horror.
The vortex seemed unwilling to let its prey escape, and because it had not been able to completely sweep away the little chubby ball, it gradually increased its attraction.
The suction force tightened like a drum, causing the surrounding seawater to surge even more frantically towards the center of the whirlpool.
"Two! Two!"
"Two! Two!"
The little chubby balls let out terrified screams as they desperately rushed toward the little chubby ball being pulled by the suction force, only to be stopped by Flame Scale, who had received Gu Xi's command.
Now, not only Er'er, but also the other two A-level chubby balls are affected by this suction force and are teetering on the edge of danger.
Seeing the little chubby balls struggling fiercely, Flame Scale stretched out its body and its tail grew larger, directly encircling the little chubby balls and shielding them from the suction force.
Ai Si reacted quickly after hearing Gu Xi's instructions.
His eyes sharpened, and a powerful mental force surged forth, instantly enveloping the unknown suction force.
Immediately afterwards, a layer of crystal-clear ice spread out rapidly, freezing the suction force in place in the blink of an eye.
