The chain of metallic gravel slowly descended. The Manta Ray Bird Emperor hovered above the valley. Water was still flowing down the mountain and surging into the lower areas fiercely, as if it was going to form a huge reservoir.

A man in a light gray outfit was floating in the water. He looked no different from the broken wood that was drifting on the surface. He was facing down, while his bloated limbs were swaying along with the current.

The Bird Emperor circled above the corpse a few times. It remained on alert for some time, and did not approach the water recklessly.

The Bird Emperor opened its mouth, and fired a water projectile at the back of the corpse.

The corpse suddenly turned into a black mantle, which disappeared as the projectile struck it. The Bird Emperor immediately realized it was a decoy, and quickly left the area.

“It’s too late!” Mo Fan’s voice suddenly appeared. A man covered in dark lightning arcs launched himself from the wall nearby. He slammed into the Bird Emperor’s back like a hammer imbued with wild lightning.

A few dozen lightning bolts were bundled together before Mo Fan unleashed them with his stomp. It actually looked like a lightning hammer descending from the sky, smashing right into the Manta Ray Bird Emperor’s back. The resulting wound was even bigger than the previous cut left by the Rebelling Shadow!

The Bird Emperor cried out in pain. It struggled to resist the Lightning Magic whose damage had been amplified twelvefold. The lightning surged right into its body, making it feel as if its organs were going to explode at any second.

The Bird Emperor struggled fiercely. It immediately dashed forward in a blur of light to stop the lightning hammer from hurting it, but Mo Fan was long prepared for that. He had finally tricked the Manta Ray Bird Emperor to a perfect altitude and distance for his counterattack. There was no way he would give the creature a chance to return to the sky!

“Space Rhythm: Gravity!” The lightning covering Mo Fan did not dissipate. A silver hexagon established itself and encapsulated the Manta Ray Bird Emperor and Mo Fan, who was holding onto the creature’s back!

The Manta Ray Bird Emperor tried to fly away, but it felt like its body was held in place by some powerful magnet, like it was carrying over a hundred tons of extra weight. It started falling down instead!

However, the Bird Emperor’s wings were surprisingly strong. It managed to recover and remain in the air even under the pressure from Mo Fan’s Space Rhythm. It was slowly moving out of the Space Rhythm’s area!

“Transforming Rock: Binding Gravity!” Mo Fan quickly cast another spell when he saw the Bird Emperor about to break free from the Space Rhythm.

Space Magic involved compressing an area to multiply the force of gravity. On the other hand, the Earth Magic modified the structure of the ground to manipulate gravity. Mo Fan used both spells on the same area. It basically added another huge mountain to the Bird Emperor’s back. If the creature tried to hold back, the overwhelming force might even crush its bones!

The two spells were extremely effective against an agile creature like the Manta Ray Bird Emperor. It was having trouble just beating its wings to remain flying, and was slowly being dragged to the ground.

The Bird Emperor did not give up. It was moving toward the center of the valley where the water was accumulating at. Mo Fan was a little puzzled. The water in the valley was going to disappear eventually. It was unlikely that the Bird Emperor could turn the situation to its favor, even if it had the ability to control the water!

The Bird Emperor suddenly withdrew its wings while Mo Fan was thinking. It had turned into a triangular sword diving straight to the bottom of the valley at a terrifying speed under the strong force of the two spells. Mo Fan’s heart almost jumped out of his throat from shock. He was falling straight to the bottom of the valley with the Bird Emperor!

“What is it trying to do? Is it trying to take me down with itself?” Mo Fan was astounded when he saw he was getting closer to the bottom of the valley.

Was it forcing him to cancel his spells?

“Must it really be so resolute!? Damn it, is it trying to see who’s tougher? Go ahead and crash, then! We’ll see who’s still standing in the end!” Mo Fan cursed. He decided to go all out with the arrogant Manta Ray Bird Emperor.

Mo Fan would not miss out on the opportunity to subdue the Manta Ray Bird Emperor. Manipulating the gravity with two spells was the only way he could think of to defeat the Manta Ray Bird Emperor, so he had no intention of giving up on it!

The Manta Ray Bird Emperor was diving like a meteorite. It was suicidal, especially when Mo Fan’s spells had multiplied the force of gravity on it.

The Bird Emperor dove into the water like a swordfish. The water was not too deep. The resistance of the water was nowhere enough to provide them with some buffering. The Bird Emperor continued to drag Mo Fan who was holding on stubbornly and plunged right at the bottom of the valley!

“I’m never... going to let go...(gulp gulp)” Mo Fan’s throat was filled with water after his shout.

Mo Fan retained consciousness. He realized the Bird Emperor was serious with its decision, too. It did not bother slowing down even though it was about to crash into the bottom of the valley.

Mo Fan did not withdraw his spells despite the Manta Ray Bird Emperor’s reckless decision. However, just as Mo Fan thought the Bird Emperor was going to kill the both of them, it somehow dove into a cave at the bottom of the valley!

Mo Fan was in complete darkness. He was very close to the walls, but the creature was still diving deeper into the cave, now filled with cold water.

Mo Fan thought the Manta Ray Bird Emperor was going to crush both him and itself. He did not expect there to be a bottomless cave in the valley. The Manta Ray Bird Emperor was not trying to break free from the spells when it was moving around. It was aiming for the cave before diving straight into it!

The cave was shockingly deep. Mo Fan initially thought the Bird Emperor’s spell had merely filled the cave with water, but after the water became colder and cloudier, and he accidentally tasted a hint of saltiness from it, he realized the cave was filled with water from the sea instead of the Waterfall!

The valley was located at the center of the island, around seven kilometers from the sea. However, Mo Fan noticed the space clearing up after they dived another hundred meters deeper. The vast place was filled with seawater instead!
