Shang Lin then looked at the talisman in his hand, then turned to Situ Pojun, and innocently defended himself, "After all, it lives in the ocean. Even if it is an evil spirit, it is still a marine creature. However, it doesn't seem to be a simple evil spirit. There seems to be a solid black shadow as well. It's a pity that my talisman can still be effective on land, but it's a waste in the sea."
As soon as Shang Lin finished speaking, he put away the talisman in his hand, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness again. He then asked Situ Pojun, "You should know what that is, right?"
Situ Pojun stood in the darkness, almost invisible. "You're right, it is indeed an evil spirit from the sea. However, they never cross the line to harm people, but falling into the sea is a different story. So how did this greasy man fall into the sea?"
Shang Lin frowned at Situ Pojun, "Never crosses the line?! Do the evil spirits in the sea have their own set of principles?" What a joke! They don't even have self-awareness, okay?
Suddenly remembering the evil spirits in the cabin corridor, Shang Lin continued, "You didn't sense the evil aura in the cabin, did you?"
Situ Pojun's eyes were fixed on the sea below. "The evil aura in the cabin gathered because of my presence. The things in the sea have nothing to do with me. But they really don't cross the line, so this man either accidentally fell into the sea or was thrown into the sea by someone. Moreover, I told you before that this auction was very dangerous. I just didn't expect that the danger would begin before the auction even started."
Shang Lin secretly circulated his spiritual power, trying to see what was in the sea, but was stopped by Situ Pojun, who said, "Don't do anything reckless. This is the sea, not land."
Shang Lin was about to say, "What did I do wrong? I just wanted to check."
The next second, he keenly sensed that a powerful suction force was slowly forming in the seawater, as if it were about to pull everything around it in.
Shang Lin subconsciously took a step back, only to see the greasy man's corpse being swallowed up by the gradually appearing vortex, followed by a chilling aura rushing towards his feet.
Situ Pojun grabbed Shang Lin's arm and pulled him away from the stern of the ship with the speed of a sudden gust of wind, instantly reaching the center of the ship.
Shang Lin looked at the stern and asked Situ Pojun, "Didn't you say they wouldn't cross boundaries to harm people? Then what just happened?"
Situ Pojun's face was ashen. "There must be something that's more attractive than their inability to cross boundaries. Could there be something on this ship that's drawing them in?"
Shang Lin subconsciously thought of himself, wondering if he had applied three talismans to conceal his aura. After all, that chilling aura just now seemed to have a tangible quality, coming towards his feet.
But now that they were in the middle of the boat, that chilling aura hadn't followed them. Could it be that Situ Pojun had misjudged, and that the evil spirits of the sea truly couldn't cross boundaries to harm people?
Just as Shang Lin was wondering, he heard hurried footsteps. It wasn't just one person's footsteps, but three people's, and coincidentally, they were all running towards them.
Shang Lin glanced at Situ Pojun subconsciously and immediately sent him a telepathic message, "Can you make me invisible too?"
Situ Pojun grabbed Shang Lin's arm again and transmitted his voice, "Okay, but you have to cooperate. Hold your breath and concentrate."
"Okay, sure."
