As for Jin Jian and Lu Yi, they had been waiting in the coral forest for a long time for Cherry Blossom to come. Both of them had a trace of anxiety and exhaustion in their hearts, as they each leaned on the coral to sleep.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the dream like a clap of thunder. The two of them quickly woke up and saw that in the darkness, the coral forest was suddenly split into two. Sea water gushed out and rushed into the sky.
Amidst the turmoil, Jin Jian grabbed onto the root of a coral and stabilized himself. It was as if he had fallen onto a reef. The impact of the huge water current caused his body to sway continuously in the water.
A prideful exclamation came from ahead. Jin Jian's heart stirred and he immediately looked around, only to see that Lu Yi was hanging on the other side. She was also tightly grabbing onto the root of a coral and her body was drifting in the water, at a loss of what to do.
Jin Jian hurriedly shouted, ”Hold on tight, don't let go.”
Lu Yi shouted, ”I don't have any strength left!”
Jin Jian said, ”I'll find a way to help you!”
As he spoke, he looked around and saw waves surging within a radius of 100 kilometers. They were like horses galloping in the water. Countless reefs were swept up by the sea water and passed by the two of them.
Jin Jian tilted his head and saw through the chaotic water shadows that Lu Lu was standing on the other side of the broken rock.
Jin Jian thought to himself, ”Right now, the undercurrents are as violent as a hurricane, and rocks are flying everywhere. However, how can I go around to save her?” With anxiety in his heart, he looked around to see if he could find a suitable environment.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the darkness was coming from the bottom of the sea. It brushed past the coral rocks, and then descended down to the bottom. It must have been two extremely powerful figures fighting at the bottom of the sea.
Jin Jian thought to himself, how about following this gust of wind to send me on my way? I should shorten the distance between me and Lu Yi to give her some peace of mind.
When he thought here, he took note of the situation and put his hand down. Suddenly, he felt a strong force wrap around his entire body and suddenly rushed forward, and as it surged forward, Jin Jian abruptly dropped his strength to stabilize his body, pulling himself out of the force, and grabbed onto a piece of coral on the broken rock.
As a result, Jin Jian and Lu Yi, who had originally been separated between the two halves of the broken rock, leaped and arrived at the corner of the broken rock.
When Lu Yi saw the avalanche of rocks breaking apart, a wave of frenzied darkness assaulted her. The sea was a mess like the apocalypse, and she was extremely anxious. When she heard that Jin Jian wanted to save her, she felt slightly at ease.
Unexpectedly, the next thing he knew, Jin Jian's body suddenly fell off the broken rock and was pushed to the side by the violent current, causing him to disappear. He thought that Jin Jian had been caught off guard and had been swept away.
This fear caused his strength to dissipate even faster. His body hung on the broken rock like a withered leaf on a treetop, which could be carried away by the gale at any time.
That originally somewhat annoying figure seemed to be hoping for him to appear, as she unknowingly shouted, ”Hey, little Sea Dog, little Sea Dog, Jin Yuanbao, Jin Jian, where are you? I beg you, come out quickly! ”
At this moment, Jin Jian, who was at the corner of the broken rock, was holding onto a piece of coral as he slowly made his way over. When he heard Lu Yi's shout, he knew that she was extremely afraid and hurriedly shouted, ”I'm here, don't be afraid, I'll come and save you in a while.”
When she heard this, she could tell his approximate position from the surging wind. She knew that not only was he not swept away by the surging waves, but he was actually walking closer and closer to her, so she was extremely happy and couldn't help but worry for a moment. She was afraid that Jin Jian might really be unable to hold on and be swept into the deep sea, so she quickly shouted, ”Then you have to be careful!”
However, when he looked around, the hidden waves were still wreaking havoc, but amidst the dark waves, it seemed to follow some sort of method. Even though the area of effect of the hidden waves was already very wide, the central zone still surrounded the broken rock where the two of them were standing, as if the hidden waves had arisen for the sake of the two of them. Every time it brushed against the wall of the rock, if he had not tightly grasped the coral on the broken rock, he would have already been drawn into the wild waves of tens of thousands of feet.
Jin Jian's heart immediately skipped a beat. He then thought to himself, ”Could it be that someone was plotting in secret and had deliberately used a Daoist magic to set off such a violent wave?” Otherwise, why would the surging waves only circle around us? ”
At that moment, Jin Jian understood that the surging waves controlled by a person's technique would be shackled by the person's thoughts. Different from the unpredictable surging waves in nature, people's thoughts have blind spots, so the power of nature controlled by humans is easier to break than the real power of nature.
Thinking up to here, Jin Jian suddenly stopped his body and used the power of the hidden impact to leap up the broken rock. He jumped onto the rock, grabbed onto the coral with both arms, and hooked onto a coral with both feet.
