The two of them each carried one person, the princess and the general.
"Where is Luo Weixing?"
"He... just said he was going to relieve himself, now I'm afraid..."
Zhu Jiuyin whispered.
Chu Tian felt a pang in his heart. Luo Weixing, that old man, had lived a lonely life, taking care of his granddaughter Luo'er despite being blind.
When he had spoken to him earlier, his greatest wish was to personally see Luo'er married off.
It would have been even better if he could have seen it with his own eyes.
After Chu Tian's treatment, he could already vaguely see light.
This had made him very excited, and he had called Chu Tian a miracle doctor repeatedly.
Thinking of this, Chu Tian's heart ached. Damn Cloud Water Merchant Guild.
They actually used such a method!
Watching the ferry gradually sail away, still within his spiritual sense range, he moved his mind, preparing to teleport back onto the ship.
Boom...
Space shattered, interrupting Chu Tian's teleportation.
From the center of the vortex, a terrifying force erupted. If one were caught in it, they would be instantly crushed. Chu Tian's mind was violently shaken.
Without a second thought, he threw the unconscious Luo'er in his arms to the night-ranging cat.
The Moon God's Fury immediately appeared in his hand, and Chu Tian quickly created a clone, gathering its skill power, and slashed downwards.
The powerhouses still struggling in the air were instantly sucked into the center of the vortex.
They looked on in horror, wanting to cry out desperately, but found their bodies could no longer move.
Then their bodies were torn apart by an invisible force, quickly disappearing into the engulfing sea. All of this happened silently, as if an invisible mouth had swallowed them all.
There were millions of cultivators and ordinary people in the lower level. Except for Chu Tian, the night-ranging cat, Zhu Jiuyin, and the people they held, everyone else had disappeared.
Chu Tian's previous strike had directly cleaved through the power that bound them, otherwise, they too would have been pulled into the water.
"Roar..."
Suddenly, a roar came from below.
"Chu Tian, run! That guy below is the ruler of this冥海 (Ming Hai - Underworld Sea), even Zhao Lei wouldn't dare to confront it head-on!"
The night-ranging cat's expression changed drastically. Chu Tian was furious and was about to say something.
The sea eye below began to churn.
Buzz...
An even more powerful binding force rose, visible to the naked eye.
"You all go first." Chu Tian's divine sense moved.
Zhu Jiuyin and the night-ranging cat were enveloped by his divine sense and violently flung away.
Both of them were already powerful, and the binding force posed little threat to them.
With Chu Tian's added strength to propel them, they naturally flew without obstruction towards the Cloud Water Merchant Guild's ferry.
"Truly formidable, even the legendary冥海之眼 (Ming Hai Zhi Yan - Eye of the Underworld Sea) can be resisted.
Unfortunately, you shouldn't have provoked my Cloud Water Merchant Guild. Rest in peace!
In your next life, learn who you can afford to offend and who you cannot!" Gu Yun, the old man, grinned sinisterly and nodded to the person beside him.
The latter responded.
Boom... Bang bang bang...
As Zhu Jiuyin and the night-ranging cat were flying towards the ferry with the unconscious people, suddenly, in front of them, the stern of the ferry flashed with white light.
A divine beam thousands of meters wide shot directly at the two of them. The immense power made the void roar, stirring up boundless water vapor.
"Dodge..." Zhu Jiuyin forcefully pushed the night-ranging cat.
He himself was a moment too slow and was grazed by the light across his chest.
Splash...
Blood immediately splattered, and a layer of flesh was sliced off his chest by the divine beam.
Boom...
Chu Tian also naturally noticed the appearance of the divine beam. He had been observing the sea eye below with great caution.
Unexpectedly, that damnable old fellow had ordered an attack on him.
If he hadn't dared to split his focus to use teleportation, he would have returned immediately and slapped him to death.
However, the thing beneath his feet was too terrifying, preventing him from dividing his attention and making him unable to use his teleportation skill.
"You old geezer, you just wait!"
Chu Tian roared, swinging the Moon God's Fury in a wide arc, striking the tip of the divine beam.
Bang...
The divine beam exploded, and Chu Tian, due to the immense recoil, was sent flying backward in the air.
As a result, his flight caused the suction force from below to become even more terrifying.
Boom boom boom...
Simultaneously, centered on Chu Tian, hundreds and thousands of tentacles burst out of the sea within a hundred-mile radius.
Each of these tentacles was like a colossal jade pillar, immeasurable in thickness.
They were covered in suckers, appearing extremely disgusting.
"Damn it, are you reenacting Pirates of the Caribbean with me here? Kraken?"
Upon seeing this scene, Chu Tian's mind immediately recalled a movie he had watched.
At the same moment, Zhu Jiuyin and the night-ranging cat had just exited this range when the tentacles rose behind them.
"These damned humans, they've sped up, trying to shake us off!"
Zhu Jiuyin looked ahead, the Cloud Water Merchant Guild's ferry was continuously increasing its speed.
As the sea eye had disappeared and these monsters had surfaced, there was nothing to restrict their speed.
"Night... I'll take them. You... go intercept them. These guys are unforgivable!"
Zhu Jiuyin was injured and his movements were much slower. Moreover, he was not adept at speed.
The night-ranging cat, on the other hand, excelled in speed. Without a word, he took a deep look at Zhu Jiuyin's chest.
He tossed the few people he had captured with his cultivation to Zhu Jiuyin.
His body transformed into his true form in mid-air.
A body the size of a tanuki appeared, and with a whoosh...
He vanished from Zhu Jiuyin's sight.
Chu Tian, enveloped by the tentacles of the giant beast, gritted his teeth.
"Cloud Water Merchant Guild, you despicable scoundrels, you deserve to die! Once I get out... I will destroy your Cloud Water Merchant Guild!"
Chu Tian continuously struggled against the tearing force emanating from beneath his feet.
Around the hundred-mile radius, the continuous tentacles, each sucker seemed to be releasing a kind of suppressing force.
As the giant beast ascended, the seawater within a hundred-mile radius was blocked.
The sea eye was no longer visible from the outside.
But the seawater beneath Chu Tian's feet was still swirling.
However, the giant beast continued to rise.
Soon, he saw dense rows of fine teeth appearing beneath his feet.
Circle after circle, smaller and denser from top to bottom.
As the seawater receded from these fine teeth like a funnel.
"Damn, it's as disgusting as a giant abyss mouth!"
Chu Tian cursed, his body constantly resisting the oppressive force.
He raged against the vortex, but the suction force of the vortex was too powerful. His bones began to creak, and his sturdy physique was in danger of being crushed.
The suction force from below, coupled with the strange pressure from the suckers on the tentacles.
These two forces acted upon Chu Tian, like the intertwining of two laws.
