316: Huge waves, each showing their magical powers
"Boom!"
The surface of the Milky Way exploded, and the young man who had been swallowed earlier rushed out in a sorry state, still carrying a shark-like creature with its belly ripped open.
The Prodigies glanced at him and continued forward.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, everyone had surpassed the young man. The creatures in the river, perhaps wary of their strength, did not appear, which emboldened them considerably, and their speed began to increase.
Even those with great skill and daring suddenly accelerated, surging forward. In just a few breaths, they had covered hundreds of thousands of miles.
Xu Yuan looked into the distance, always feeling some kind of danger ahead, so he slowed his pace.
"What? Scared? So slow?"
Noticing Xu Yuan's actions, Luo Ni skirts mocked him.
"Idiot!"
Xu Yuan retorted!
"You!"
Hearing this, Luo Ni skirts wanted to attack but was held back by Jian Ming, who shook his head at her.
Although Jian Ming wished he could attack Xu Yuan, many people were already rushing forward. Who knew how far the source of the Milky Way was? If it was too close, others would surely succeed.
"Rumble!"
Just then, a deafening sound came from upstream, and the entire Milky Way trembled violently.
"What happened?"
"What's going on?"
The expressions of the Prodigies changed.
At the far end of the upstream, a boundless silver line swept down towards the downstream, covering the sky and earth.
As the silver line approached, everyone realized that it was a monstrous tidal wave, vast and endless. Wherever it passed, it seemed as if everything would be destroyed.
Rumble!
"Not good, quickly defend!"
The pupils of the Prodigies rushing at the very front constricted, their voices trembling.
"Northern Sea Black Tortoise Shield!"
A Prodigy shouted, and torrential energy surged out, forming a Black Tortoise that enveloped him.
"Heaven Suppression Pagoda!"
"Yin and Yang Myriad Manifestations!"
"..."
The Prodigies either unleashed Divine Abilities, threw out Emperor Armaments, or waved their hands to scatter Talismans... In short, each used their own methods to resist this sudden torrent.
The Prodigies at the very front bore the brunt and were instantly affected!
"Crack, crack, crack!"
The methods of several Prodigies were instantly shattered, and they were then engulfed by the torrent, directly swept into it, rolling down with the giant wave.
As the saying goes, "one force can conquer ten skills." The power carried by this monstrous wave was difficult even for a Peerless Quasi-Emperor to resist. Although these few were not ordinary Peerless Quasi-Emperors, this power was also beyond their ability to withstand.
"Ah!"
A scream was caught by the Prodigies amidst the earth-shattering giant wave.
A Prodigy was seen falling like a meteor. Unconscious from the impact, he was captured without any resistance by a terrifying crab creature.
The crab creature's pincers gleamed with cold light, like two giant scythes. A Quasi-Emperor's Physical Body, under these pincers, was as fragile as paper, instantly snapping into two.
Then, it opened its gaping maw and devoured the severed body, as if enjoying a feast.
Blood gushed out like a fountain, staining the entire Milky Way red.
This bloody scent instantly awakened countless creatures hidden deep within the Milky Way. They surged out like a tide, carrying endless killing intent, and launched attacks on the nearby Prodigies.
Some Prodigies, already tottering under the impact of the giant wave, now had to face the frenzied attacks of these creatures, immediately falling into despair.
And those creatures, being river dwellers themselves, now flickered through the Milky Way. Each attack carried a fatal threat, leaving the Prodigies defenseless.
The entire Milky Way plunged into chaos. The shouts of the Prodigies and the roar of the Milky Way intertwined, forming a terrifying symphony.
"Ah!!!"
"I don't want to die!"
At this moment, the Prodigies whose strength was insufficient, relying on their respective factions to gain points, wailed.
But wailing was useless; if their strength was not enough, they could only die!
However, for those Prodigies with true strength, it seemed easy and natural.
Boom, boom, boom!
Not far away, Feng Qian was seen moving against the wave, unleashing streams of Yin and Yang power from his hands, slaughtering one Milky Way creature after another.
On Jian Ming's side, he didn't even need to act himself. Luo Ni skirts unleashed the Emperor Art Divine Ability of the Ethereal Palace, and from her sleeves, countless colorful ribbons extended, constantly weaving through and slaughtering one creature after another.
And Xu Yuan was very direct; relying on his Physical Body, he...
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the silver giant wave disappeared. At this moment, more than ten Prodigies were missing from the scene. Nine of them had perished among the Milky Way creatures, and the rest were all swept downstream by the giant wave.
Among those remaining, some had faces as pale as paper.
"Is it... over?"
A Prodigy asked with trembling lips.
"It should be over!"
A Prodigy had already taken out a Medicinal Pill to quickly recover. In their current state, they couldn't sustain the upcoming actions. Fortunately, this space allowed the passage of weapons like divine boats, giving them a place to rest.
However, after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Rumble!
The entire Milky Way trembled again, and a deafening sound once more came from upstream.
"There's... still more!!!"
A Prodigy was scared and knew that continuing would be courting death. So, without another word, he headed towards the swirling platform from which they came.
"Buzz!"
Upon reaching the platform, he unhesitatingly vanished into the vortex.
The other pale-faced Prodigies also no longer hesitated, leaving the Heavenly Mandate Space one after another.
In just that short while, only about seventy people remained on the scene. Each of these individuals was a top-tier among Peerless Quasi-Emperors. Although some of them were a bit disheveled, they were not like those who had just left.
Moreover, this time, they had already begun to cooperate, which would significantly reduce the pressure.
Rumble!
In the distance, a silver line reappeared, pressing down on the Prodigies at an extremely fast speed.
Just as they prepared their defenses, a monstrous torrent poured down, crashing into their defenses, causing them to tremble wildly.
The might of this wave was even more fierce than before. The indescribable impact pushed many Prodigies back a considerable distance, but due to teamwork, they managed to hold on.
And under this impact, some Prodigies had already begun to move forward.
Feng Qian extended both palms, and facing the silver current ahead, he unleashed a Xuan Bird formed of Yin and Yang. Wherever the Xuan Bird passed, the silver river automatically parted to both sides, allowing Feng Qian to step forward.
The Young Hall Master of Heaven Suppression Hall was even more direct, directly bringing out a golden bell Emperor Armament. The continuous impact couldn't hinder him by half a step.
Xu Yuan also moved steadily amidst the giant wave. He adopted the most brutal method, resisting the impact with his powerful Physical Body, moving step by step upstream. He quickly surpassed the Prodigies and caught up with Jian Ming and the others.
"Hmph!"
Jian Ming's eyes turned cold upon seeing this. Wielding an Emperor Armament, he unleashed a sword strike, and a sharp Sword Qi swept out, directly cutting a hundred-zhang gap in the silver torrent before him. Then, with a sword strike and a step, he quickly led Luo Ni skirts and the others away.
"Heh heh!"
Xu Yuan sneered, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.
Vast Qi, like a volcano, suddenly erupted from Xu Yuan's body with a roar.
Then, like lightning, he charged forward. All the Milky Way creatures he encountered along the way instantly exploded...
