Chapter 12 Slaying the Water Corpse
The lake water in front of Mu Yuan began to surge. Although he was in the middle of the river, the water spread out to both sides, as if it were welcoming something.
It wasn't because of external force, but because he released an extremely faint trace of divine power.
With just a sliver of heat, the water temperature at the bottom of the river suddenly dropped. Even the low-level monsters sensed something and turned to look in Mu Yuan's direction, then—trembled.
They didn't recognize Mu Yuan, but their instincts told them that the person lying in front of them was the true master of this body of water.
The roaring, ten-thousand-soul water corpse suddenly realized something was wrong.
Its rotting, hideous head rose from the deep ditch in the riverbed, half of its chin rotten away, revealing blackish-yellow teeth and decaying gums.
Two eerie green flames suddenly ignited in the eye sockets where there were no eyeballs, turning towards Mu Yuan's direction.
It emitted a piercing shriek.
The shriek pierced through the river like countless steel needles simultaneously stabbing into eardrums.
The mud and sand at the bottom of the river were shaken up and surged up, forming a murky fog.
The five sailors moved simultaneously, quickly forming a battle formation in front of Mu Yuan, and their killing intent was suddenly released.
Mu Yuan raised his hand.
The sailors stopped moving, but their formation remained intact.
He looked at the myriad souls and the water corpse, a slight smile curving his lips, gazing down at it with indifferent disdain.
"What are you! Where did you take my evil energy?!" the Water Corpse of Ten Thousand Souls roared angrily, its voice seemingly echoing the words of hundreds of people speaking in unison.
Any ordinary person who hears this sound would likely be unable to withstand its power and fall into a coma.
"Evil spirits! Die!" A divine voice rang out, and boundless divine power emanated from his body, forming a protective aura. The water soldiers behind him also charged forward, entangled with the other evil spirits around the water corpse.
The Water Corpse of Ten Thousand Souls was also furious. When he saw the white light emanating from Mu Yuan purifying the ghostly energy emanating from him, he immediately understood why the area he was in had become like this.
It's all the fault of this damned spirit!
How can a spirit be without malevolent energy and yin energy?!
After the Ten Thousand Souls Water Corpse roared, the surrounding water seemed to offer no resistance, and in the blink of an eye, it crossed a distance of more than ten meters and arrived right next to Mu Yuan!
A pale arm suddenly burst forth from the massive body and plunged viciously into Mu Yuan's face!
[To ward off evil spirits and dispel negative influences]
Mu Yuan's lips twitched slightly, and the next second! A dazzling golden light suddenly emanated from his body!
With a deafening roar, golden light, like a cannonball, slammed heavily into the body of the Myriad Souls Water Corpse, causing a loud explosion on the water's surface!
Golden light and black mist rose into the air, and the Myriad Souls Water Corpse was shaken by this, its body sinking directly into the deepest layer of silt.
Zhou Gang and Xu Meng, who were on the shore, immediately noticed the change in the atmosphere around them.
"They've already started fighting?" Xu Meng said in disbelief.
"Could it be that this water spirit didn't notice our presence?" Zhou Gang was also a little puzzled. Normally, if you really have the ability to sense this river, you should have appeared the moment they appeared.
Moreover, what he just said by the river wasn't just directed at Xu Meng.
Furthermore, he subtly told the river spirit just how powerful the Myriad Souls Water Corpse truly was.
"Chief, what should we do?" Xu Meng gripped the guillotine in her hand and looked up at Zhou Gang, asking.
"How long can you stay underwater at most right now?" Zhou Gang asked in return.
"I fought a C-rank river spirit before, and I could only last a minute in the river! But under normal circumstances, I could last at least three minutes!" Xu Meng said, looking at the clear river water at her feet.
"Then let's go take a look together." After Zhou Gang finished speaking, he gripped the River-Suppressing Iron in his hand and jumped directly into the river!
With two splashes, the moment the two entered the river, the River-Suppressing Iron in their arms emitted an invisible power, and the surrounding water seemed to stop flowing, without causing any ripples as the two swam across.
The water in the main river channel of the old town is larger and deeper than that in other tributaries.
The water surface is five or six meters wide and nearly a kilometer long.
At this very moment, a golden figure at the bottom of the river looks down at the struggling figure in the deepest part of the river.
Around him, five figures clad in scale armor, like guards, were battling dozens of strange creatures.
Water soldiers, as soldiers of the underworld, belong to the private army of the river god!
Fighting within the area under the river god's jurisdiction gives them a home-field advantage, and although their numbers are few, they are by no means weak!
They actually managed to restrain all ten strange entities!
At this moment, the Ten Thousand Souls Water Corpse, which had been slapped away by a palm strike, struggled to crawl out again.
The area that was just photographed has already been torn to varying degrees, and only the wriggling worms inside can be seen.
Black ghostly energy emanated from the wound, and the face of the Ten Thousand Souls Water Corpse was filled with a hideous expression.
"You can't kill me! Who are you! What is your background! Why didn't I sense your presence!" The Water Corpse of Ten Thousand Souls questioned, while frantically releasing corrosive ghostly energy, causing the water to surge.
However, no matter how the Myriad Souls Water Corpse manipulated its power, its power was like ice and snow meeting the sun as soon as it came into contact with Mu Yuan.
If they can't even make contact, how can they possibly fight?!
"Absolute control!" Mu Yuan gently extended his finger and pointed, and an invisible power instantly emanated.
The expression of the Water Corpse of Ten Thousand Souls changed. The ghostly aura emanating from the surrounding area was suppressed by an invisible force, and its own strength could only be exerted at half!
"How is this possible?" His already limited intelligence became even more confused in the face of this situation; he simply couldn't understand why his strength had suddenly decreased!
This is the ability to fight within the jurisdiction!
It directly weakens the opponent's strength by half and increases one's own strength by 30%!
"It seems I overestimated you." After realizing the strength of the Ten Thousand Souls Water Corpse after it was suppressed, Mu Yuan silently shook his head.
Then, he tapped his finger lightly.
A gray energy, resembling a stream of water, emanated from it and landed directly on the Wanhun Water Corpse, which was suppressed in place and unable to move.
Source cutoff: Guixu Yin!
This is a finishing move. Faced with this attack, the Thousand Souls Water Corpse was unable to move and could only watch helplessly as gray energy covered its body.
Although he sensed danger from this energy, the Myriad Souls Water Corpse remained completely calm.
"Give up! I can't die! You just wait! I'll suppress you beneath the mud at the bottom of the river for all eternity!"
After he finished speaking, the power of the Returning Void Guide landed on him!
The Water Corpse's face stiffened, and a clear look of bewilderment appeared in its eyes.
Because the connection between his infinite soul and his condensed corpse seemed to have been severed.
