By the beach.
Four Sky-Flipping Rays moved at supersonic speed, like four thin lines constantly circling Cai Menghuan and Wei He in rapid attacks.
Amid a string of crackling blows, force splashed in all directions.
The speed of sound was three hundred and forty meters per second, while Wei He's maximum speed could only reach around one hundred and sixty meters per second.
Without his conditioned reflexes and the blocking, buffering protection of his force, the gap in speed would have left him unable to react at all.
Even so, he was hard-pressed on every side, struggling immensely.
Three Gravity Pythons continuously circled the area, shifting from confronting the enemy head-on to assisting from the flanks.
Fortunately, while the Sky-Flipping Rays were fast, the points where their attacks landed were extremely easy to predict.
After all, true beasts like these had little intelligence. Their thoughts were simple; they only knew how to charge straight ahead, and their attacks mostly targeted vital points.
Cai Menghuan, nearby, was far more composed. The bronze flute in his hand precisely sent rings of force bursting outward.
The force transformed into discs, steadily blocking the Sky-Flipping Rays' points of attack.
Strangely, when his force vibrated outward, it naturally produced a faint hum.
After coming into contact with that hum, the Sky-Flipping Rays' movements visibly warped, and their trajectories gradually slowed.
