"Everyone close your eyes!"
Upon seeing the abnormal phenonon appearing on the river’s surface, Li Yan quickly warned.
The mbers of the Salt Gang imdiately bowed their heads and closed their eyes upon hearing this.
Though they were not Magicians, their years of smuggling salt had either seen them navigating such remote waterways or traversing desolate mountain paths.
Strange occurrences were things they had both heard of and witnessed.
Evil Spirits often confuse the five senses to harm people.
Therefore, in such a situation, bowing and closing one’s eyes is the best choice to avoid falling into a trap and interfering with Li Yan’s spell-casting.
Just as Li Yan gave his warning, the commotion on the river’s surface grew stronger.
The mist thickened, quickly becoming so dense that one couldn’t see their hand in front of their face, even concealing the bright moon in the night sky.
"Hehehe hahahaha..."
Strange laughter echoed from within the dense fog.
Vaguely, there seed to be red shadows flickering within.
Killing intent rose in Li Yan’s eyes, but he ignored it and continued stepping astride, forming a spell with his hands, and performing the "North Emperor Exorcism Technique."
"Eight Might Vomiting Poison, Fierce Horses Four Directions, Heavenly Guardians Leading, Great Commander’s Banner, Throwing Fire Ten Thousand Riders, Flowing Bell Eight Charges, Dare to Intervene, Refuse to Suppress the Truth..."
This ti, he chanted the spell at a very slow pace.
With the support of the "Thousand Thoughts" brocade arm protector and along with the magic platform, each word required manipulating vast amounts of Astra Bane Qi, making speed difficult to achieve.
However, the power was undeniably evident.
As the spell was cast, Li Yan’s raised left arm, clad in Demon Suppression Coin Fish Scale Armor, made a rustling sound, spreading a terrifying killing aura.
Whoosh~
In an instant, a fierce wind whipped up over the river’s surface.
Centered around Li Yan’s left arm, it was as if giant invisible hands erged from nowhere, churning furiously, driving the mist away visibly.
On the river surface ahead, nurous river drifters surfaced, revealing only half of their heads, with blue-purple skin, wet hair, and blood-red eyes fixed intently on them.
Upon seeing this, Li Yan snorted coldly.
He stepped the Astral Step and pointed forward with a hand seal.
Bang!
A river drifter’s head suddenly exploded, black water splattering everywhere.
But it was like stirring up a hornet’s nest.
Black smoke erged from these river drifters’ bodies, indicating a highly concentrated Yin Sha Qi, and the temperature on the river’s surface dropped rapidly.
Everyone’s breath beca visibly pronounced.
Rustling!
The river drifters, like fish, quickly dived into the water. When they reappeared, they surrounded the fleet, forming a circle.
Young boys to the left, young girls to the right, rotating in different directions.
"Hehehe hahahaha..."
A piercing and strange laughter rang in everyone’s ears.
Li Yan adjusted his hand seals, performing the Evil Removal Skill.
Bang! Bang!
With every pointed hand seal, a river drifter’s head shattered.
However, no hint of satisfaction showed on his face.
The "North Emperor Exorcism Technique" was supposed to directly confront this Evil Formation, utilizing the Innate Astra Bane Power to completely clear the Yin Sha Qi.
Yet, this array was quite peculiar.
It seed like a substitute technique, with a river drifter voluntarily absorbing all the spells, making it difficult for him to achieve a single decisive strike.
As the fleet got surrounded by river drifters, the demonic sound filled their minds, creating illusions around them, and the Salt Gang n started appearing unwell.
"Yin and Yang are illusions; the real object is below!"
Wang Daoxuan, who was proficient in this path, detected sothing amiss and said in a deep voice, "There must be a suppressive object below that must be destroyed!"
This ti, it was Li Yan’s oversight.
He assud that with his current Dao, magic treasures, and magic platform, dealing with this formation would be easy.
Yet, he didn’t expect that breaking this formation required finesse.
One would have to distract the river drifters and send soone down to destroy the suppressive object.
Of course, for them, it was just a matter of effort.
"San’er, it’s up to you!"
Li Yan continued with the mantra to suppress and kill the river drifters while calling out softly.
Lv San didn’t waste any ti, muttering incantations, forming a spell with his fingers, and rhythmically slapping his palm on the water’s surface.
Splash!
Two plus of water rose on the river’s surface, with huge fish fins faintly visible. Finally, two dark shadows ca from the rear waters.
They were exactly the two fish monsters of the river.
In desolate places by rivers, lakes, and seas, large fish occasionally gain spirituality, either through swallowing pearls and cultivating or causing harm.
These two large fish were captured along the way.
Despite their large size, their intelligence was diocre, and they were easily subdued by Lv San, who had practiced the "Mountain and Sea Spiritual Response Scripture."
The "Mountain and Sea Spiritual Response Scripture" was an Ancient Tis Wizard’s thod of communicating with Ghost Gods, making these little creatures insignificant, but handy for temporary use.
The two large fish surged beneath the water, stirring up murky sedint, eventually causing sothing to float to the surface.
It was a small boat, rising upside down, with runes painted with red paint on the bottom and several decaying coffin nails nailed in.
So broken iron chains still dangled from it.
Judging from the situation, it should have originally been fixed below, but had been broken loose by the large fish, thus floating to the surface.
"Ah——!"
The appearance of this object caused all the river drifters to erupt.
They let out a piercing wail and imdiately stopped confusing the people, their bodies emitting black smoke as they floated towards the boat.
Clearly, this object was their target.
The two large fish, barely awakened to spirituality, were so frightened by the sinister aura of these wicked things that they disappeared in a flash.
This also led them to slip out of Lv San’s control.
Temporarily controlled creatures were like this, easily startled and escaping.
But Li Yan wouldn’t miss such an opportunity.
He manipulated the hand seal, used the Divine Movent Skill, leaped onto the water’s surface, and with a series of steps, water splashed mighty as he jumped high above the small boat.
Crackle!
With his left hand forming a seal, electricity danced over his fist, crackling loudly as he descended with a mighty punch.
With a thunderous crash.
Water splashed, wood splintered.
