The detonation plan worked out by the MDT successfully destroyed the portal, and the deep-sea whirlpool quickly dissipated after the bomb exploded. However, things did not end there — something was wrong with the water.
Bursts of chaotic torrents gathered from all directions, completely unlike the normal activity of a body of water. The temperature of the entire body of water was dropping rapidly, and this abnormal loss of temperature was clearly not a natural phenomenon. The siren queen raised her upper body vigilantly. The tiny scales under her cheeks flashed with a pale blue light as if she was sensing the information conveyed by the water. "Something... Something seems to be awakened... A huge consciousness is watching here!"
Hao Ren quickly connected the communication. "MDT! Something is not right here. What can you see? "
The voice of the MDT came with a burst of interference noise. "The sea level is deforming... Two huge low-temperature storms are forming at the north and south poles at the same time, and the seawater is moving unconventionally... Get out of there! Something's heading towards you! "
Without the MDT's reminder, Hao Ren also saw "that thing". It was a strange frozen water, spreading out of nowhere, and the seawater along the way was frozen into icicles in the blink of an eye. Now this fierce white ice tide was only a few hundred meters away from Hao Ren and his team!
"Retreat!" Hao Ren roared. He could not care less about the engineering ship anymore. He grabbed Shaqira, who was closest to him, and rushed upwards. "MDT, teleport us out!"
The MDT's voice was still mixed with strong interference noise. "... Failed! Coordinate misalignment! The Wall of Reality has not fully recovered. Teleportation is disrupted! "
"Holy moly..." Hao Ren looked back. "Then give me a solution! There's an ice storm behind us with a temperature of one or two hundred degrees below zero, and the water pressure here has begun to torment my shield! "
"Keep rising, get out of the deep sea. As long as you leave the collapse point of the Wall of Reality, I can teleport you out," the MDT said quickly. "Hurry, the sea is beginning to freeze. This place is not right!"
"Damn it, now everyone knows that this place is not right!" Hao Ren roared. He, Y'zaks, and the three sirens rushed to the surface of the sea as fast as they could. Behind them was a strange ice belt of half a kilometer wide, which was actually an invisible cold mass of water. Wherever it passed, only the ultra-low temperature ice that could instantly freeze steel into powder was left. Soon, Hao Ren realized that this freezing force was not the worst: because the entire water began to freeze at the same time!
Crystal clear icicles kept appearing in the water, and countless sharp ice crystals rained down on the group's shields and barriers like a hail of bullets. At the same time, the powerful water pressure became more and more intense. The group was clearly rising, but the water pressure around them felt like they were falling into the deep sea. A strong sense of drowning came out of nowhere. Hao Ren finally knew what deep-sea phobia was.
"We can't control the water here!" cried Shaqira. There was a thin layer of ice on her tail, and she was trying her best to maintain the water enchantment around them. Hao Ren and Y'zaks could quickly float in the water almost entirely because of the power of the three sirens, but now their forward speed had slowed down significantly. "The water here is controlled by a more powerful force... It doesn't listen to me!"
Y'zaks roared, and his body suddenly burst into a red light. Scorching magma and molten iron erupted from his body, melting a large area of ice crystals around him in an instant. The next moment, he turned into a huge lava demon, and a dark green Demonic Shield covered the water enchantment that the three sirens had built, which greatly reduced the pressure on them.
Y'zaks turned his head and said to the siren queen in a booming voice, "You take us up. I'll deal with the water pressure and cold."
The power of the great demon only dispelled the ice within a certain range, but the entire sea was about to freeze into a whole. Huge chunks of ice rolled in from all directions, and at the same time, blocked them from going to the sea. Hao Ren looked up. Under the illumination of Y'zaks' demonic flame, he saw layers of glaciers forming rapidly in the deep water. Connecting the situation that the MDT had just mentioned, he suddenly realized an incredible fact:
The entire planet of Io was rapidly freezing!
Although it was hard to believe, Hao Ren believed that the planet (or perhaps some ancient consciousness sleeping on the planet) had awakened and was trying to freeze the outsiders who disturbed it inside its body. The glaciers contained a powerful force, and they were not natural products at all — and this force obviously would not allow the intruders to leave!
Hao Ren took out his gun from the dimensional pocket, but he quickly realized that the radiation of this thing would contaminate the entire water and accidentally hurt the sirens and demons around him, so he switched to a graviton bomb. While throwing grenades to blow up the glaciers, he shouted in the communication channel, "Still can't teleport?"
"Just a little bit more!" The MDT's voice was also very anxious. "Some force has slowed down the recovery of the Wall of Reality, and now the noise generated by the friction between the two worlds is preventing me from locating your position. This is the power of the big universe, and it's two universes! Give me a few minutes to crack it! "
A huge ice cone hit the shield around them. Sorma and Shaqira screamed at the same time: they had lost control of the water.
The scales on the Queen of the Sirens glowed. She used her powerful magic to forcibly seize control of the water from the entire sea. Fortunately, she did not let them stop. If they stopped here for even a few seconds, they would be frozen in an instant.
"Hurry up!" Hao Ren shouted into the communication device while trying to open a path in the ice. "I suspect I will be frozen with three fishes in a few minutes! Now only Y'zaks has no ice on him! "
The more powerful low-temperature torrent and the impact of the water began to destroy the structure of the Demonic Shield. This was the power of the entire sea of Io. Although it was just water, its impact was enough to flatten any mountain on the surface. Y'zaks used his own demonic power to fight against the natural force of the planet itself. No matter how strong he was, he could not gain the upper hand in this confrontation. So the Demonic Shield began to dim at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The rumbling voice of the great demon came from behind Hao Ren. "I feel that the sea is full of anger, resentment, and annoyance... I am very familiar with this kind of negative force, but it should not be here!"
Hao Ren blasted an underwater glacier, revealing a passage that they could barely pass through. "What did you say?"
"I mean, I am very familiar with this negative force!" Y'zaks roared. "This is a vengeful spirit! This sea is full of the howling of vengeful spirits. I have heard this sound countless times in the soul furnace of Serathon! "
Hao Ren instinctively froze for a moment, and then he was shocked. "Is there such a powerful vengeful spirit in the world?"
"That's why I said it should not be here!" Y'zaks replied loudly.
Hao Ren wanted to ask something more, but a deafening roar from above interrupted everyone's movement.
"Boom!"
The huge roar sounded again, shaking the entire sea that was about to completely freeze. It was like using a hammer to violently hit a solid ice ball, and where Hao Ren and the others were now was a narrow gap in the ice ball. The roar almost gave them the illusion that the world was collapsing.
The seawater around them was almost completely frozen, and there was no way to move forward. Even the power of the sirens could not do much in such an environment. However, as the roars continued, the thick layer of ice above them began to crack.
"Boom!"
Another roar came, and Hao Ren finally noticed a faint flash of light above the thick and dark ice. It was an explosion.
No matter what kind of explosion it was, the way forward had been cleared.
Hao Ren threw two graviton bombs to widen the gap between the underwater glaciers, and then before the crack closed again, he led everyone forward. "Everyone, keep up!"
Finally, after crossing the glacier, the interference caused by the collapse of the Wall of Reality faded. A white light flashed in their eyes, and they finally left the planet that had turned into a frozen hell.
