Oceanblaze Beasts (Part 2)
“Where are those three? They would be able to hold these oceanblaze beasts off,” thundered Lu Xiong.
“Let’s think about that after we figure out how to deal with all the enemies in the trees, skies and these incoming tentacles!”
The dragon tortoise took no its tortoise form with two horns. The two dragon carps turned into their carp forms so that they had four claws to fight with instead of just two arms. The hippopotamus used its size to its advantage.
Mu Yu’s proficiency with Wood Spirit proved too much for the oceanblaze beasts’ tentacles as he hurled them into each other. Qiao Xue weaved through the trees, trapping the fiend beasts in bubbles and freezing them. Despite their valiant efforts, though, there was just no end to the enemies.
“Mu Yu, put me down and escape. I don’t want to become a burden,” advised Lu Xiong.
“Your whinging isn’t making this any easier, so don’t speak up if you don’t have anything helpful to say,” responded Mu Yu.
“It’s all Big Earthworm’s fault!”
“I didn’t mean to make the kid cry.”
“It is not your fault Lord True Dragon; it is just their nature to react that way.”
“Let’s leave it at that. Mu Yu, cast Gentle Wind Interlinked Hearts so that we can join the fight,” suggested the dragon vine.
“Nah, I already have an idea.”
Mu Yu cast a formation into Wood Spirit, creating vines and hurling them around. He then cast formation text into everyone’s body to merge them with the first formation. Suddenly, the oceanblaze beasts stopped attacking, affording Mu Yu a small window to drag everyone back to him.
Mu Yu quietly instructed, “Suppress your qi, quick! They can’t see us since I’ve cast an illusion formation on us.”
“Is this enough to deceive them?” asked the eldest dragon carp, surprised Mu Yu could drag all of them back at once even though their cultivation was equal.
“As long as you don’t start attacking them,” answered Mu Yu, trying to rush everyone away since he used himself as the formation’s foundation.
The oceanblaze beasts focused on trying to locate the group using their sense of smell. Luckily, Mu Yu was ahead of them and covered their scents already.
Qiao Xue pointed to a river. “Let’s go to the river. I don’t think there are any oceanblaze beasts there.”
There was no point going to the river because she was the only one who could perfectly blend in with water to sneak past the group on guard duty at the ocean.
They had to tread deliberately in order to provide Mu Yu enough time to constantly adjust the formation to the environment since he mobilised what should’ve been a fixed formation. Even though some oceanblaze beasts yielded and left, there was still a group parking atop a dune they arrived at. They took a detour around the group and jump onto the water.
Qiao Xue generated a platform for them to stand on the water surface, separating them to prevent them getting soaked. She lowered the water level, then housed everyone inside a big bubble to enter the water.
Mu Yu assuaged himself with exhale, only to hear the hippopotamus verbalise a warning.
“The temperature is going to drop!” Qiao Xue warned upon seeing the encroaching tentacles.
The temperature plummeted as Qiao Xue froze over the river within a twenty square metre area, freezing their predators at the same time. Unfortunately, the strategy provoked those flying above. Given their numbers and brute strength, it was a quick job for them to purge the ice. Although she managed to slip away in time, the oceanblaze beasts had the homed in on the bubble and utilised their tentacles to propel themselves swiftly through the water.
Qiao Xue stalled their pursuers through incarcerating the oceanblaze beasts, albeit barely. Joining her, Mu Yu pulled tree roots from the shore over to form a wooden wall, forcing the oceanblaze beasts to charge through so that he could bnd them once they charged through.
Rumble!
“It’s a waterfall! Hang on!” Qiao Xue instructed.
The bubble flew off the ridge and began a rapid downfall. Mu Yu belted everyone in using tree branches to prevent passengers in the bubble crashing into each other.
“Where does this river flow to?”
Below them wasn’t a body of water but a seemingly bottomless stone cavern. Above the waterfall were more oceanblaze beasts lying in wait for hostiles, although they had to dive into the stone cavern since they couldn’t leave the waterfall.
Given the only light in the cavern came from above, tension flourished in their minds.
Qiao Xue broke their fall halfway down the waterfall because not even she could discern what lied at the bottom. “They aren’t chasing us into his cavern. What’s next?”
Mu Yu cast a formation, lighting up the rocky walls desecrated with moss. Adrenaline still pumping, their sense of smell was heightened enough to pick up on a gag-inducing smell.
“Well, I don’t know if we’ll be able to out until the oceanblaze beasts have picked up all of their k-”
“I know where we are now!”
