Chapter 1702: Soldiers coming to stop them
Bai Ziqi's ship was indeed hit by the first big fish, and the force of the collision was extremely shocking. Amid the flying wood chips, He Lingchuan even saw more than a dozen sailors being knocked into the sea.
But this big ship was incredibly solid, and it glowed with blue and white light the moment it was hit. It was obviously protected by several layers of formations such as reinforcement and balancing, and the effect was quite strong. The power of the sea monster was obviously enough to overturn it, but the hull just swayed like a pendulum, and the main sail got caught in the water several times. But there seemed to be an oversized ballast stone at the bottom of the ship, which could keep it straight every time, and the amplitude of the swaying was only large at the beginning, and it would gradually stabilize after swinging seven or eight times.
The giant fish was very annoyed when it failed the first time. It turned around by wagging its tail in the distance, accelerated again and rushed over. When it was about to hit the first ship, it opened its mouth wide, trying to bite a big hole in it.
No matter how sturdy a ship is, it is impossible for it to remain unscathed when encountering the mouth of this abyss.
At the same time, two other big fish also came up.
However, after they succeeded for the first time, all the ships emitted a strong red light!
The seventeen ships were very close to each other, so the red light diffused and intertwined. From the bird's-eye view where He Lingchuan was, the red light completely enveloped the entire fleet, 360 degrees, with no blind spots in all directions.
Then, the two giant fish slammed heavily into Bai Ziqi's ship.
This time they used all their might and were determined to smash the ship to pieces. However, it seemed as if they had hit a solid iron plate. Bai Ziqi's ship only shook slightly a few times before it stabilized, without even causing any big waves on the sea.
How to describe it? It's like putting a big wooden board in a basin of water. No matter how the water ripples, the amplitude of the wooden board's rise and fall is limited.
It's very stable.
The first giant fish turned around and rushed over, taking a bite of the boat, shaking its head and tail, trying to drag it to the bottom of the sea.
Its power is not small, but a strange scene appeared:
The seventeen ships were shaking in unison, but none of them was seriously hurt. Bai Ziqi's ship was not damaged, but the giant fish seemed to be stuck in its mouth, and it could not break free from the ship no matter how hard it shook.
"One move affects the whole body." Aunt Zhu understood. "They put the god on the boat, and the seventeen boats are connected as one! If your fish wants to overturn Bai Ziqi's boat, you have to overturn all seventeen boats together!"
This was just like the concerted battle formation that Bai Tan's army used when facing the stone beasts in Yaowang Palace, except it was an oversized and enhanced version. No matter how powerful the three giant fish were, they couldn't overturn seventeen boats at once.
Bai Ziqi's move couldn't deal with a hurricane, but it was more than enough to deal with a few giant beasts that were causing trouble.
Even Dong Rui could see that this time, there was no need for the gods to intervene.
Aunt Zhu's subtext is, why don't you just increase the quantity, add another ten or eight big fish, and turn the coastal waters into a mess. After all, every formation has its limits.
Just go for it and confront me head on.
But at this moment, several golden lights suddenly emerged from Bai Ziqi's boat and pierced directly into the fish's eyes!
The fish was caught in the boat and had not yet gotten out, so it could not escape the opponent's counterattack.
Another golden light penetrated from its mouth.
After just a dozen breaths, the giant fish suddenly turned into flowing water and flowed away from the deck.
This was originally a magical power that allowed him to transform into a giant. After suffering a fatal blow, he could no longer maintain it and was immediately reduced to his original form.
A few more golden lights appeared from the boat, and they chased the other two giant fish and did the same thing.
When the sea calmed down, the golden light did not return to Bai Ziqi's hands, but swam to the front of the boat and turned into seven huge swordfish!
The sea wind here had changed direction at some point, blowing from Silver Pearl Island to the sea. The fleet was sailing against the wind, and it was very difficult. But as soon as the seven swordfish appeared, they dragged the entire fleet towards the shore, faster than the ships sailing with the wind!
"Eternal Light Spirit." This time it was He Lingchuan's turn to explain to the immortals, "Bai Ziqi was promoted from the Light Envoy of the Heavenly Palace to the Cloud Envoy, and he is good at using light spirits. But I have seen his light spirits, and they were not so powerful before. They must have been blessed and infused by the Heavenly Demon."
The Tiangong and Huanzong teams didn't even fight each other, nor did they test each other, they just started with a life-and-death fight - now the Huanzong was unilaterally attacking, and the Tiangong team led by Bai Ziqi was temporarily unilaterally resolving and defending.
However, in this world, the magic of the Heavenly Palace cannot be used again and again, so the best option for the fleet at the moment is to reach the island as soon as possible.
No matter how talented Bai Ziqi was, he had too few opportunities to fight against immortals. He lacked experience and suffered a loss in the first encounter.
However, the Huan Zong's attacks began to become cautious and not as aggressive as before.
He Lingchuan's eyes flashed as he looked at the Haoyuan Golden Mirror.
This mirror seems to have a wide range of uses, and is closely connected to this world. The Illusion Sect probably doesn't dare to let it exhaust its energy, otherwise many incredible magical powers cannot be performed.
That's why the immortals switched to a lower-cost Black Fish Formation, but in the end they were unable to defeat Bai Ziqi.
Lamp spirits also have the ability to materialize.
Those swordfish were swimming very fast. In half a quarter of an hour at most, Bai Ziqi's fleet would be close to the beach of Yinzhu Island.
If the problem can be solved at sea, it is best not to tow it to land.
Elder Xu grabbed a large ball of ointment from somewhere, added water to the bowl and rubbed it for a few times to let it dissolve, and then poured it into the Haoyuan Golden Mirror.
The Soul-Capture Mirror was very dissatisfied when it saw this scene: "Why does he throw all kinds of junk into the Hao Yuan Golden Mirror? The precious mirror is not a trash can!"
But after Elder Xu's ointment came into view, everyone saw a large mass of black oil quickly emerging from the seabed, dyeing the entire sea area black, with a layer of oil on the surface.
The sea water, which was crystal clear just now, turned into a black muddy swamp with bubbles coming out of it in a blink of an eye.
The swordfish transformed from the lamp spirits seemed to be swimming in thick sesame paste. They flapped their wings for most of the day but advanced less than a hundred feet.
Xiao Wencheng walked back and retreated to the side of the long table.
There was a sand table on the table. He stretched out his hand and flicked it, and the sand table quickly enlarged and focused on Silver Pearl Island and the surrounding sea area.
Where the beach is, where the river is, where the town is, and where the valley is are all clearly shown on the sand table.
Xiao Wencheng and the two elders each lit a stick of incense, faced south, closed their eyes, and prayed silently with extremely pious expressions.
Who else could they worship? Of course, it was Master Qianhuan.
The three of them stopped talking and opened their eyes almost at the same time, and a little incense ash in their hands fell onto the sand table.
The three of them just lowered their heads and stared at the bit of incense ash, their eyes fixed on it.
After a while, the incense ash disappeared into the sand.
Elder Xu heaved a sigh of relief: "The Immortal Master has acquiesced! Senior Brother——"
Xiao Wencheng nodded.
At this time, Bai Ziqi's fleet was also shown on the sand table, and it was approaching the northeastern coast of Yinzhu Island.
