Luwu was smiling, looking colder than ever. When Bai Ya's figure disappeared from everyone's sight, he leaned down, clung to the edge of the cliff with one hand, and quickly slid down. No need to think too much, he must have escaped from the cliff, just like Bai Ya originally thought. Qi Huan grabbed the invisible spider silk with both hands, cursed, and shook the web back and forth with force. However, this thing is extremely strong, and with his little strength, he can't shake a tree like a cricket.
The waves are still lapping against the stone wall, the sound is monotonous and confused.
At this moment, under the faint starlight, Qi Huan saw five pale and thin fingers rising up in the air and making a gesture, as if they were grasping the invisible threads crisscrossing around him like him. With this movement, Shuangyue Jun pulled calmly. There wasn't even any force that caused the veins to bulge. Both he and Liu Shenghan heard a few crisp sounds, as if the strings of a piano or a bow had broken, one after another. The strong spider silk did cut his hand into a deep ravine, but they noticed that after the transparent spider silk came into contact with his hand, a few thin white threads spread out in the air, like ice needles. was easily torn into pieces. Then, Shigeyue-kun took a step forward and stepped out of the obstacle that had disappeared.
"You, you..." Qi Huan's tongue was knotted. He moved his legs and feet and poked his head in the direction that Li Wu left. He didn't see anything. "You have this method, why didn't you use it earlier? It's not like that. Let Lao Bai jump down like this!"
Mr. Shuangyue turned a deaf ear. He walked to the edge of the cliff, staring at the place where Li Wu disappeared, and said to himself: "You walked fast enough. Unfortunately, you missed the so-called ability to open mountains and split seas."
As if in a blink of an eye, the Demon-Sealing Blade was already unsheathed and held by Lord Shuangyue.
He looked at the wakizashi in his hand, wondering what he was thinking. This was a perfect opportunity to see the true face of this magic weapon. Qi Huan on the side couldn't help but look over.
Judging from the standards of human weapons, at first glance, it seems that the blade of the Demon-Sealing Blade has undergone an unsuccessful quenching and is entangled with broken veins. But with a little light at night, you can see these cracks on the blackened dagger, emitting a faint, cold light, just like the stars falling down to add to the painting. He could vaguely see strange patterns on the cracked blade surface. It was too dim to see clearly, but it made people instinctively frightened.
He has no research on Shura's weapons, nor is he a craftsman skilled in this art. Qi Huan only felt that this knife exuded an indescribably powerful aura and contained dangerous evil, as if nothing could suppress it. However, the master it chose remained calm and aura. There seemed to be something that he could not describe but could only feel, hovering in Lord Shuangyue's breath, echoing the Demon-Sealing Blade.
This is like the restraint between the scabbard and the sharp blade, or a mysterious balance. At this moment, even though he knew how Lord Shuangyue hated such curses, Qi Huan still couldn't help but have a strange thought:
Lord Shuangyue and the Demon-Sealing Blade, from a certain mysterious realm, they may be considered a match made in heaven.
While Qi Huan was thinking wildly, Lord Shuang Yue held the knife in front of him with both hands, ending the brief pause. Immediately, facing the direction where Bai Ya fell, he jumped.
Qi Huan was startled and hurriedly chased him to the edge of the cliff. Lord Shuangyue's figure in the field of vision quickly shrank, becoming a blur of color that was difficult to identify in the night. This process was very fast, and in a moment, he touched the surface of the sea.
Qi Huan's eyes widened slightly. Before he had time to lower his head, the scene in front of him changed dramatically.
Liu Shenghan walked over at some point and looked into the distance with him. In their eyes, the slightly turbulent sea surface seemed too quiet and extremely simple. There was a crack that appeared as ordinary as a sharp knife cutting through a block of tofu... but it was extraordinary. Just because what is cut easily like tofu and maintains cracks like a solidified object is the originally turbulent sea.
There were vague shadows flickering between the gaps, something familiar. Qi Huan thought that it was the dragon shadow he had glimpsed flying next to Lord Shuangyue again. They guarded Lord Shuangyue's whereabouts and cut off thousands of hectares of waves. The sea water was split by the magic weapon in his hand, but this scene was more like - facing the Demon-Sealing Blade and its master, even Haitao spontaneously backed away to make way for a smooth path.
This seemingly ordinary scene, because of its extraordinary nature, and even more so in the silence, makes people feel disconnected and shocked.
The sea was much deeper than they had previously thought. Looking along the cutoff and diversion point, Qi Huan could only see a deep, dark ravine. Soon, the small figure representing Mr. Shuangyue could no longer be seen clearly. Only the Dragon of Disaster chases the cracks in the sea and flies down. Soon, they all plunged into the darkness.
"This is much more convenient." Qi Huan heard Liu Shenghan beside him mutter to himself.
"Convenient? What do you mean..." Qi Huan turned his head and half of his words were stuck in his throat, "——Hey, wait!"
Before he finished shouting, Liu Shenghan had already jumped into the crack in the sea water, followed Shuangyue Lord quickly, and fell into the sea where they were out of sight. Qi Huan was immediately dumbfounded.
"This...ah?"
Just leave me here? No one tells me what to do now?
There was no one around, only the whistling wind answered the questions in his mind. This cliff stands on the seaside, and the night wind blows in the face, which is strangely deserted.
At this moment, all my friends who were traveling with me fell into the sea. Qi Huan craned his neck to take a glance, then immediately retracted his head, and took two anxious steps back and forth, occasionally stopping, but then hesitating. He did not lack courage, but just one glance at the turbulent scenery made his whole body feel uncomfortable, from his hair to the tips of his toes.
The previous encounter in the Yaksha territory and the deep sea cast a heavy shadow over his heart. At this time, returning to the place where the pain had been branded, he simply felt that his long-lost and almost forgotten illness came back to life. My skin was itchy and my joints and internal organs ached. He even had to look at his arm carefully in the night light with a slight nervousness, just to make sure that there was no reticular bloodshot like when he first got sick. Bora
There were no ominous marks on his arms, but it still made him uneasy. He swallowed and took a step towards the edge of the cliff. It was just fear, he secretly convinced himself.
Glancing down from the corner of his eye, Qi Huan still shivered and suddenly withdrew his gaze. The place underneath that was split open by Shuangyue Lord may be out of water. If it falls to the ground...
He couldn't think any more, lest he get entangled in more worries. Didn’t Liu Shenghan jump down anyway? Qi Huan closed his eyes suddenly, held his head high, pinched his nose, strengthened his legs and feet, and jumped towards the dark crack.
Suddenly, the roar of the wind and the feeling of weightlessness enveloped him.
The descent was very long. Just now he saw the two friends falling into the sea too fast. Now what happened to him was so different that Qi Huan couldn't help but feel surprised and weird. After a while, Qi Huan felt that he should have touched the sea long ago. He could still smell the sea vapor lingering on the tip of his nose, but he could breathe as smoothly as on land.
Qi Huan couldn't help but open his eyes - he had to jump in his heart.
He was already in the sea.
This is probably not a very deep place, and there is still light from the sky. He accurately jumped into the crack in the water that Lord Shuoyue had split, with the sea cut across him beside him. Qi Huan squinted his eyes and could see scattered fish swimming happily where the starlight could still reach. There are also looming shadows in the darker areas of the water, presumably other sea dwellers that cannot be seen clearly. It was so dark at night that I could only see a rough outline, and there weren't many aquatic animals here. It's just that this scenery is really rare, and people can't help but sigh at how bizarre it is.
As it fell, the light became dimmer. The darkness made time difficult to measure. After an unknown period of time, Qi Huan suddenly felt a sense of dampness. Immediately afterwards, there was a splash of water.
He moved his arms nervously, and after a moment of reaction, he fell safely into the water. It seems that Mr. Shuangyue did not kill him all the way to the end, but deliberately left some room to slow down his fall.
Qi Huan raised his head. Whether it was an illusion or not, he seemed to be able to see a glimmering gap representing the sky. There is the sea under the feet and on both sides. Only this crack is filled with air, which is basically the same as the ground.
The situation created by the Demon-Sealing Blade that split mountains and seas is really strange.
It can be said that the place where Bai Ya is located is definitely not under the sea crack where Qi Huan is - it is even much more magical. The position of the air and sea water around him was completely opposite to that of Qi Huan.
At this time, he raised his head and moved his eyes away from the edge of the water that almost touched the soles of his feet. Within reach of his head, the shark stretched its arms and tail in the water, gently and lightly. Bai Ya felt somewhat uncomfortable. Despite the barrier of scales, it seemed a bit rude to stare at a girl and look her up and down like before. He slightly shifted his gaze and wanted to speak, but almost swallowed sea water again. He had to hold his breath and try his best to make mouth shapes, pointed at himself, and then gestured to the shark to ask:
You saved me?
"I saved you." The shark probably understood, and she turned briskly, "I saved you - someone sank, I saw it, and swam over to see. Many people like this are already dead... No Breathe. But you don't."
Bai Ya in the water wanted to say something, and started gesticulating awkwardly. Obviously, the girl didn't understand. She frowned, showing a thoughtful expression, trying to explain the idea she wanted to convey more clearly:
"You're cold and hard, like stone. Maybe dead... to you. But no, you're not dead - there's something moving inside, but it's not the heart... it's something else, we Know what it is.”
Although Bai Ya sounded a little tired, he could understand it somewhat, not to mention the surprise. He was still soaking in the water and felt that his body needed new air, so he swam down and out of the water. He fell out of the water and hurt a little. After standing up in embarrassment, he shouted to the sharks in the sea.
"I...maybe almost drowned, just a little bit." Bai Ya smiled, but he guessed it wasn't a pretty smile, "I should thank you."
After that, he wiped his face vigorously, especially to clear away the water near his mouth and nose, so that he could speak more easily. The clothes were wet and clinging to my body felt uncomfortable. Then, he raised his head, pushed back his sticky hair with both hands, and asked:
"Before I met you, I thought the sharks couldn't speak."
"We can talk in the water - we can only talk in the water. Once we reach the shore, we can't. The places where the sound is produced will stick together like fish gills. You won't do this." She gestured. , pointing to his own throat, "I'm not very good at speaking your language either."
Her voice is a bit different than when heard in the water, maybe because the sound is transmitted from the water. Maybe Bai Ya's own voice is just as strange to the other person's ears.
"I understand."
"That's good...good."
