A vast, boundless black forest stretched below. The Ice Lion flew over it at incredible speed, with a huge mass of purple lightning clouds close behind, moving just as fast.
Ye Yuhuan and the others stood on the deck, their expressions tense.
The rumble of thunder rang out as three incomparably thick purple lightning pillars descended from the sky, striking toward the Ice Lion.
Ye Yuhuan formed a hand seal. The Ice Lion lit up with dazzling white light and accelerated, dodging the three purple lightning pillars.
With a deafening boom, the three purple lightning pillars struck the ground, leaving three enormous craters as black smoke billowed upward.
A huge mass of purple lightning clouds appeared high in the sky. Looking closely, one could see that the purple lightning clouds were formed by more than a million Purple Lightning Mayflies, including no fewer than three Eighth Order Purple Lightning Mayflies.
If they had not possessed the Spirit Treasure Ship, Ye Yuhuan and the others would never have escaped being caught after traveling very far.
Ye Yuhuan furrowed her brows tightly. Ahead lay an azure sea stretching beyond sight.
She changed her hand seal, and the spiritual light around the Ice Lion surged again. Its flight speed increased dramatically, covering a hundred thousand miles in an instant.
Strangely, the Purple Lightning Mayflies did not pursue them. It was unclear whether they had given up or were wary of this sea region.
"Could there be an Eighth Order Demon Beast in this sea? Or perhaps a powerful Restriction?"
"Are there too many Eighth Order Demon Beasts here? We traveled around the Mystic Sun World aboard the Ice Lion for ten thousand years and encountered only two Eighth Order Demon Beasts. After entering the Daoist Sanctuary, we've already encountered no fewer than six."
