The only thing that comforted Lu Xiaotian was that ordinary Profound Immortal Realm experts seemed to lack the ability to resist the water of this small stream. While it affected him slightly, it wasn't to the point where he couldn't resist it.
As for Night Cry and Corpse Curl, the two Heavenly Immortal Realm experts, they were clearly more resistant to the water of this small stream.
However, for the crimson and black dragons to have such a great reaction, it also meant that there was something formidable in the Netherwithered Sea that caused these two extremely formidable dragons to immediately withdraw.
Lu Xiaotian also wanted to leave at this moment, but he was afraid of that old monster, Jiangchen. That old fellow had disappeared without a trace once he fell into a deep slumber. He didn't even react to the deaths of Corpse Stream and Corpse Zhong. Clearly, he was a vicious and merciless person. While Night Cry and Corpse Curl were formidable, Lu Xiaotian felt that if he was careful and didn't give them a chance to launch a pincer attack, his chances of escaping by relying on the strangeness of this withered mulberry forest weren't small.
However, Lu Xiaotian didn't have the slightest confidence in facing this old monster, Jiangchen, who could awaken at any moment or was secretly observing everything in the surroundings. Before he had enough confidence in escaping, Lu Xiaotian didn't dare act rashly for the time being. He didn't want to infuriate Jiangchen and cause irreversible consequences.
When they arrived at this small stream, several more Profound Immortal Realm Withered Silkworm Combat Figurines entered the small stream in succession. The other Withered Silkworm Combat Figurines realized that they couldn't gain the slightest advantage in the current situation and withdrew. Lu Xiaotian, Night Cry, and Corpse Curl heaved a rare sigh of relief.
"Master's eyes are truly sharp. I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Dongfang to find clues about the Netherwithered Sea so quickly. What should we do next, Fellow Daoist Dongfang?" Night Cry said with a face full of joy.
"Let's recuperate for a while first. We'll search through these small streams after we've recovered. My knowledge of the Netherwithered Sea is extremely limited. "Lu Xiaotian hesitated for a moment before speaking. Since entering the withered mulberry forest, the strange changes along the way were too much for the eye to take in. Although Lu Xiaotian had some guesses, he wasn't completely sure whether these intersecting small streams connected to the Netherwithered Sea or to another dangerous place.
Tiye and Corpse Spiral nodded at the same time. Although they didn't suffer any losses in the fierce battle just now, they had consumed quite a bit of energy. After witnessing the power of these creeks, they calmed down and realized that these creeks, or the hidden dangers of the Dark Withered Sea behind them, would not be small. If they went there in their current state, they might not have a good ending.
After resting for a while, they recovered to their original state. The Space Force in their bodies, which had been almost exhausted, was now restored to normal. Night Ti and Corpse Xiao protected Lu Xiaotian in the middle. The three of them carefully passed through the air above the creeks and continued their search.
The withered mulberry trees in the area where the creeks intersected gradually became sparse. Behind him, two consecutive dragon roars sounded. Lu Xiaotian looked back and saw that the withered mulberry forest had already disappeared. In the dusky sky, a giant painting floated in the void. In the painting, the withered mulberry forest was faintly discernible, and a faint sorrowful aura emanated from it.
Lu Xiaotian sucked in a breath of cold air as a conjecture emerged in his mind. Could it be that the Withered Mulberry Forest they had entered before was just a painting?
The same shock appeared on the faces of Night Ti and Corpse Xiao.
This Dark Withered Silkworm Venerable's methods were truly powerful. He was actually able to refine such a lively withered mulberry forest into a painting. Even with the strength of Lu Xiaotian's Yuan Spirit, he had not noticed that he had mistakenly entered it. Even if he guessed that he was in a painting, Lu Xiaotian still could not identify the flaws in the layers of withered mulberry leaves inside.
At this time, Lu Xiaotian could not help but wonder if his Space was on the way to the Dark Withered Sea or if he had entered another painting.
As they continued forward, the creeks from before had turned into a surging river. The water inside was turbulent and surging forward.
The suction force from inside had increased by a few notches. Lu Xiaotian became more and more worried about whether he would be able to resist the suction force from the Dark Withered Sea.
"Two Fellow Daoists, this place is already like this, so the suction force on the other side of the Dark Withered Sea must be even stronger. I wonder if Senior has any methods to deal with it? If this continues, we may not be able to reach the Dark Withered Sea alive. " Lu Xiaotian said in a deep voice as they approached the unknown river. He was definitely not exaggerating. As the waters behind them grew larger and larger, according to the current trend, the situation was likely to be more serious than he had imagined.
"Master left behind some methods. As long as we reach the Dark Withered Sea, Master will naturally deal with the greater dangers. Fellow Daoist Dongfang, you can rest assured," Night Ti said.
"I hope so. But based on the current situation, if we don't have any other methods, we really won't be able to make it to the Dark Withered Sea alive." Lu Xiaotian was about to say something when his expression suddenly changed.
In the originally surging river, the seemingly ordinary river water surged with monstrous waves. The huge waves twisted, and the river water formed humanoid figures, beastly figures, zombie monsters, and so on.
These monsters roared and pounced toward the shore. Corpse Xiao slashed out with his scimitar. Boom, boom, boom. The oncoming monsters exploded into droplets of water under the scimitar and rained down like rain.
The sprinkling rain carried an astonishing suction force. Even if Lu Xiaotian wanted to avoid it, it was not realistic. There was no way to avoid the rain falling everywhere.
Night Ti stretched out his hand, and a large amount of Dove Corpse Fire gushed out. It formed a huge curtain of fire in the air, covering a relatively safe area above their heads.
Chi — —
The ordinary-looking rainwater hit the curtain of fire, creating wisps of smoke. It seemed that the rainwater had an astonishing corrosive power. The smoke twisted into the shape of ferocious-looking ghosts.
Night Ti and Corpse Xiao's expressions were extremely solemn. After fighting with these ghosts for the first time, they felt that the other party was not to be trifled with. And the two of them had to protect Lu Xiaotian, so their hands and feet were tied.
"These ghosts of the underworld are very powerful. Although they do not come from the true Weak Water, there are many of them and they are not easy to deal with. As time passes, Corpse Xiao and I will not be able to protect Fellow Daoist Dongfang, so we can only try our best to delay them. Fellow Daoist Dongfang, act according to your discretion and find an opportunity to break out of the encirclement. We have delayed Master's important matters." Night Ti pointed with his finger, and several corpse fire scimitars appeared, slashing at the several ghosts that had already passed through the corpse fire barrier.
"Ghosts of the underworld?" Lu Xiaotian's heart skipped a beat. To be able to make Night Ti and Corpse Xiao so nervous, their strength was definitely not small.
The unparalleled might of the Endless Dove Corpse Fire and the saber images first destroyed several ghostly figures, but these ghostly figures scattered into the gray rainstorm and did not completely dissipate. Instead, the rainwater formed fang-like ghostly soldiers that clashed repeatedly with the flaming saber formed by the Endless Dove Corpse Fire, causing sparks to fly in all directions. These ghosts of the underworld did not have the time to use any powerful abilities, but they were already evenly matched with the Endless Dove Corpse Fire.
