Shen Luo remained silent for a moment. Then, he continued to fly forward.
This place was too strange. His Divine Sense could only explore a small area. Therefore, he flew very slowly.
After flying for a quarter of an hour, there were no changes in the surrounding environment. There were no attacks from the Sound Beasts either. This made him slightly relieved. He considered whether he should speed up.
At this moment, a burst of splashing sound came from the front. It seemed that there was a body of water.
Shen Luo raised his eyebrows and sped up. A black body of water soon appeared in front of him.
This body of water was also vast and boundless. Clouds of black gas floated on the surface of the water. This made it look unreal.
He urged his Conveyance Light to approach the body of water. When he was about to take a closer look, his magic power suddenly stagnated. He couldn't operate it at all. He fell from the sky like an ordinary person.
Shen Luo was shocked. Seeing that he was about to fall into the black water, his body suddenly twisted. His waist bent into the shape of a shrimp. At the same time, his feet quickly stepped on the void.
Even though he was strangely unable to use his magic power right now, the tenacious strength of his fleshly body that he'd obtained from cultivating the Yellow Court Scripture was still present. His feet stepped on the air as he shot out diagonally with a swoosh and landed on the ground beside the body of water.
Shen Luo frowned and looked at the black water below.
This water had the effect of confining magic power. Falling into it was definitely not a good thing.
After he calmed down, he found that other than the fact that he couldn't use his magic power, there were no other abnormalities. Therefore, he didn't rush to leave. Instead, he looked at the strange black body of water in front of him.
Now that he was closer, he could see the black water more clearly. It was much more viscous than ordinary water. There were one or two bubbles at the bottom of the water. There was also a strange sour smell coming from it.
"It's corrosive?" Shen Luo picked up a long stone from his feet. He soaked one end of the stone in the black water. After a few breaths, he raised one hand and lifted the stone.
The stone soaked in the black water had shrunk a lot. Almost half of it had been corroded.
His eyes flashed. The rocks on the ground had been corroded by Yin Qi for many years, and their structure had changed long ago. They were much stronger than ordinary rocks, but they had been corroded to such a state in such a short time.
Shen Luo was just about to take a closer look when the black water in front of him suddenly exploded. A red shadow shot out like lightning, rolling towards him with incomparable speed.
He was shocked. He stomped on the ground and used the force to retreat.
However, he was unable to use his magic power and could only rely on his physical strength to move. Compared to when he used the Slanting Moon Steps and Fulgurating Shadows in the past, he was much slower. He could only barely dodge the red shadow's attack.
Shen Luo finally saw that the red shadow was a dark red tentacle with two rows of suckers on it. It looked very similar to an octopus foot.
However, before he could relax, there were three loud booms, and the black water exploded again. Three identical giant tentacles shot out from inside, flying towards him from different directions.
Shen Luo shivered. He used both his hands and feet to barely dodge the first two tentacles. However, the third tentacle fell from the sky. It was fast and urgent. He couldn't dodge it no matter what he did.
Suddenly, the Stone Splitting Footwork that he had just seen on the stone tablet appeared in his mind. His body subconsciously twisted to the left and right, causing his bones and tendons to crackle. His retreating speed immediately increased by two to three times, allowing him to escape from the tentacle.
With a loud bang, the tentacle fiercely hit the ground, creating a huge pit that was dozens of feet deep.
Shen Luo's eyes lit up with joy. This Stone Splitting Steps was actually so mysterious. He could move so fast just by relying on his physical strength. It wasn't much slower than the Slanting Moon Steps and Fulgurating Shadows.
However, his body still hadn't adapted to the Stone Splitting Steps. After forcefully using it, his muscles and bones ached, but it didn't affect him much.
At this moment, there was a low roar from the black water. The tentacle that had already fallen to the ground suddenly shot up. A red light flashed from the top of the tentacle. Suddenly, more than ten slender fleshy tentacles shot out. Their speed was much faster than the tentacles. In a flash, they caught up with Shen Luo and firmly wrapped around his body.
Shen Luo didn't expect that the octopus tentacles would have this kind of magical ability. He was about to desperately use his physical strength to struggle.
A black shadow shot out from Shen Luo's waist. It was the Ghost General. He was in midair, and a pitch-black saber light bloomed from his hand.
Swish swish!
The fleshy tentacles that wrapped around Shen Luo were cut off. The saber light didn't stop. In a flash, it chopped at the red tentacle.
With a "chi la" sound, the tentacle was almost cut in two. A large amount of blood spurted out and fell on the ground nearby. The ground suddenly emitted a "chi chi" sound as it was corroded into a deep black pit.
A sharp scream came from the black water. A huge octopus head slowly emerged from the water. It was the size of a house. Its two lantern-like blood-red eyes looked at Shen Luo. Its eyes were filled with madness and desire. The evil aura was so strong that it made Shen Luo's heart turn cold. The hair on his back stood up, and he hurriedly flew further away.
The blood-red octopus stared at Shen Luo for a moment. Only then did it slowly submerge into the black water and disappear.
Shen Luo let out a sigh of relief. He turned around and looked at the Ghost General. "You can still use your magic power?"
He had already used his soul to communicate with the mirror demon. This demon's magic power was also sealed. The Qiankun Pouch had no effect.
"Most of my magic power has also been sealed, but I can still use some." The Ghost General put away the black saber in his hand and said.
Shen Luo was a little surprised. With his current cultivation, he couldn't resist the sealing power of this place. How could the Ghost General resist it?
"The sealing power of this place is most likely related to the black water. This water is of the yin attribute. The Ghost General also has a yin soul body. Moreover, he has awakened the Ominous Punishment Divine Light. It is normal for him to be able to resist the sealing power of this place."
With this thought in mind, he retreated with the Ghost General. As they moved away from the black water, the sealing power around them began to weaken. When he retreated three hundred feet away, he felt that the invisible sealing power had completely disappeared.
"The magic power imprint is still in front of us. We have to find a way to cross this black water. I will try to fly over from a high altitude. It is good that you can use your magic power. Stay by my side and protect me." Shen Luo said to the Ghost General.
"Yes." The Ghost General replied.
Shen Luo was just about to leap into the sky when he suddenly turned his head and looked behind him. An aura was quickly approaching from there.
His eyes moved, and he waved his hand to put the Ghost General into the Qiankun Pouch. The Soft Smoke Silk Robe on his body flashed with blue light. The Invisibility Talisman was also in effect. His entire person disappeared from where he stood.
After a few breaths, a purple light flew over. It was mixed with wisps of lightning. Its speed was astonishing. In the blink of an eye, it was close to them.
The person in the purple light had obviously seen the black water in front of them. His speed slowed down a lot, but he still flew forward. Soon, he stepped into the range of the black water sealing power.
The light disappeared in an instant just like he had before. A human figure fell from the sky like a stone.
However, that person was also very powerful. As soon as he lost his spiritual power, a pair of light purple wings of several tens of feet unfolded behind him. He glided down from the sky like a giant bird and gently landed on the ground beside the water.
Shen Luo only saw the person's appearance at that moment. He let out a soft cry of surprise.
This person was none other than Yan Wushi.
