No sooner had the words fallen than Xiao Bai leapt into the air, transforming into her true form—the Demon Spirit Great White Shark—and plunged into the Ring Sea.
"Sisters, let's attack together!"
Zhu Zhuyun shouted, her eyes burning with a fanatical fighting spirit. Each of them was clad in armor woven from Ink Jade Divine Grass, crafted personally by Anna.
The texture of her Ink Jade Divine Grass was tough, comparable to refined iron, yet it was incredibly lightweight. Aside from a weakness to fire, it had almost no flaws, making it perfect for crafting armor.
And now, facing sea soul beasts, even that sole weakness could be completely ignored.
Furthermore, healing vines were interwoven within the Ink Jade armor, ready to help Zhu Zhuyun and the others recover from injuries at any moment.
"Alright, big sisters, let's proceed according to the plan!"
As she spoke, Anna abruptly released the Ink Jade Divine Grass, wrapping it around the waists of Zhu Zhuyun, Zhu Zhuqing, and Tang Yuehua. Then, activating the flight ability of the Blue Silver Emperor soul bone, she carried the three women into the air, adopting the same "Cosmic Sky Flow" tactic that Tang San had used.
Since the water of the Ring Sea could absorb soul power, Anna intended to stay out of the water if at all possible. However, as they soared high, dozens of water tornadoes erupted towards the sky, charging straight for them.
The attacker was none other than Xiao Bai and her subordinate Demon Spirit Great White Sharks. Looking at the four beautiful silhouettes in the sky, the corners of Xiao Bai's mouth curled up as she spoke in a peculiar tone.
"Hehe, I'll make up for the loss I suffered at Davis's hands with you girls. Don't blame your big sister; I'm doing this to cultivate your combat abilities. I'm helping you!"
Seeing dozens of water dragons attacking from all directions, encircling the four women, Zhu Zhuyun could not help but be shocked.
"What? There are even more water tornadoes than when Davis faced them! Did Xiao Bai hold back last time?"
Seeing this, Anna's expression turned grave, but she said, "Sister Zhuyun, don't be nervous. We just need to stick to the plan. Sister Zhuqing, I'm counting on you!"
"Understood!"
As she spoke, Zhu Zhuqing immediately burst forth with soul power. Her left arm bone bloomed with a pitch-black light, and invisible ripples covered the surrounding thousand meters.
"Left Arm Soul Bone Skill: Evil Spirit Orca Mirror Destruction!"
Ka-ka-ka...
A crisp, crystalline sound echoed. The incoming water tornadoes crystallized at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into countless sparkling crystals and mirrors, unable to advance an inch.
This was Zhu Zhuqing's task: to become the shield protecting Anna. After all, among the four women, she was the only one with a defensive soul bone skill.
"Alright!" Anna's eyes lit up. She simultaneously channeled her soul power to accelerate towards the island on the opposite shore, hoping to rush straight across before Xiao Bai could react. However, her wish was destined not to come true.
"It's useless! Deep Sea Swordfish King!"
At Xiao Bai's command, countless Deep Sea Swordfish rapidly gathered and fired innumerable water arrows. These arrows soared into the sky, shooting toward Anna and the others.
Watching the water arrows approaching, there was no panic on Anna's face. Instead, she opened her Evil Spirit Eye, gazing into the Ring Sea to pinpoint Xiao Bai's location.
Anna had one hundred percent trust in Zhu Zhuqing and the other two women. After all, they were not just companions; they were family.
"Evil Spirit Orca Mirror Destruction!"
Sure enough, just as the water arrows struck, Zhu Zhuqing exerted force again, turning every attack into crystal that shattered on the spot.
Under Anna's gaze, she finally determined Xiao Bai's position. She immediately condensed her soul power and injected it into her head soul bone.
"Soul Bone Skill: Illusion Space!"
Using the ability of the Illusionary Wisdom Skull Bone, Anna could not only enhance her own spiritual power but also connect the spiritual power of everyone in the group, forming a unified whole where their hearts were linked.
In this way, even without speaking, everyone could understand Anna's intentions.
Boom—
Suddenly, a deafening explosion rang out. Tang Yuehua made her move. A silver sphere condensed before her chest, shooting out a silver-gray beam straight at Xiao Bai.
"Soul Bone Skill: Evil Spirit Orca Demon's Rage!"
Tang Yuehua's role was that of the main attacker, specifically targeting Xiao Bai. Since the trial required that they not kill any sea soul beasts, and Tang Yuehua was the weakest of the four women, only she could let loose and attack with full force without fear of causing fatal harm.
Plus, she possessed an eighty-thousand-year soul bone. As long as she could stall Xiao Bai and allow them to rush to the opposite bank, they would succeed.
"There is an old human saying: to catch bandits, first catch their king. Are you planning to deal with me first? Interesting!"
Transformed into the Demon Spirit Great White Shark, Xiao Bai smiled faintly. A tyrannical aura suddenly erupted, forcibly blocking Tang Yuehua's Evil Spirit Orca Demon's Rage!
Bang—
The powerful airflow made the entire Ring Sea boil, causing the already turbulent surface to surge even more violently.
Tang Yuehua was startled. "It was blocked!"
"It's a domain! Sister Xiao Bai is a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, so naturally, she possesses a domain, and an extremely powerful one at that..."
Boom, boom, boom!
Before she could finish her sentence, massive sprays of water splashed up from the sea surface. Ten or so ten-thousand-year cultivation Demon Spirit Great White Sharks leaped out of the water, opening their bloody maws and lunging at Anna and the others, intent on swallowing them whole.
Just as the twelve Demon Spirit Great White Sharks were about to bite down, Zhu Zhuyun suddenly acted. She grabbed Anna, and her Soft Bone Rabbit soul bone radiated light.
"Soul Bone Skill: Teleportation!"
Whoosh!
In an instant, Zhu Zhuyun teleported Anna a hundred meters forward. The twelve sharks crashed directly into each other before plunging back into the sea.
"Sister Zhuyun, beautiful work!"
"Hehe, after all, my mission is to protect you!"
"Let's continue..."
Just as Anna continued flying forward, a massive Demon Spirit Great White Shark leaped from the sea, executing a whale tail slap that whipped heavily toward them. It was Xiao Bai.
"Soul Bone Skill: Nether Clone!"
Seeing that they were about to be swatted away, Zhu Zhuyun acted in time, splitting into two Nether Clones to block in front of them. They forcibly withstood Xiao Bai's tail slap. After taking the heavy hit, the two clones completely dissipated.
Then, Zhu Zhuyun activated her Teleportation skill again, sprinting toward the front.
"To think you have clones and can teleport as well. Let's see how you dodge this! Despair Light Wave!"
Before her voice had even faded, an invisible wave of light shot out from Xiao Bai's forehead, sweeping toward them with the force to destroy anything in its path.
"Not good, it's a mental attack!"
"Evil Spirit Orca Mirror Destruction!"
Zhu Zhuqing acted immediately, hoping to crystallize Xiao Bai's Despair Light Wave, but Xiao Bai's attack was too intense. The speed of crystallization simply couldn't keep up with the speed of the attack.
Seeing that they were only a little over a thousand meters away from the island on the opposite shore, Anna immediately said, "Sister Zhuyun, use your teleportation to get us to the island now. I'll hold off Sister Xiao Bai's Despair Light Wave."
"No problem!"
Zhu Zhuyun agreed immediately. As for whether Anna could block it, she believed Anna could do it.
"Divine Grass Domain!"
At this moment, Anna finally revealed her trump card—her innate domain. Under the enhancement of the domain, her spiritual power increased by fifty percent. And at this moment, she finally unleashed her ultimate move.
"Vast Sea Cosmos Shroud Skill: Universe Demon Breaker!"
