Shadowy, Bizarre Creatures!

Ye Jing watched as more and more people gathered on the deck.

However, none of them surpassed the Divine Realm Layer Five in strength.

This is quite normal. Generally, experts of this level are top guests of the sect, or the sect leader or deputy sect leader.

Sects that possess such powerful individuals usually have their own means of transportation.

They won't take such crowded public transportation.

In reality, most bandits wouldn't have a fighter of this level.

What kind of bandit would Divine Realm Layer Five be?

Therefore, the typical ferry escort configuration consists of one expert at the God Realm paired with several Peak of Humanity Realm.

The strongest guard this time was a Divine Realm Layer Two, and there was even an extra Divine Realm Layer Two expert on the team.

This is already an extremely luxurious configuration!

But even before the Divine Realm Layer Five, it was still no match.

Even if there were hidden powerhouses like that girl among these crew members, they dared not show themselves.

At this point, the bandits' favorite thing to do is to kill the one who sticks out.

Ye Jing looked at the aerial pirates on the deck, the unease still lingering in his heart.

Logically, once the source of the threat is identified, the feeling should disappear.

This is why Ye Jing didn't rush in to save them; he was just a Divine Realm Layer Five, so even if he posed a threat, it wouldn't be significant.

The other bandits can be easily dealt with!

They were also confident that they could protect others from these robbers.

That feeling of unease still lingered in my heart.

There were unknown dangers on this ferry.

Ye Jing frowned, repeatedly recalling the source of his unease in his mind.

He understood that this feeling wouldn't arise out of nowhere; there must be some kind of crisis lurking in the shadows that he hadn't yet realized.

He activated the Secret Method again, wanting to explore every corner of the ferry.

However, the ferry's array was still in effect, preventing him from probing with his Divine Soul.

"Qiuyue, give me two blank array plates."

"Yes, young master!"

Qiuyue took out two blank array plates from her Storage Bag and handed them to Ye Jing.

This was prepared in advance by Ye Jing. As long as the corresponding Array Pattern are engraved on it, it will take effect immediately, which is very convenient!

It just won't be very powerful!

However, it's still sufficient to resist the formation on this ship.

"We need to go inside and thoroughly search this ferry!"

Ye Jing finished carving the array on the two array plates and handed one to Qiuyue.

He originally wanted Qiuyue to stay outside, but the unease he felt made him uneasy about leaving Qiuyue alone outside!

So he plans to take Qiuyue with him, so that even if something goes wrong, he can take care of her immediately.

"Yes, young master!"

Qiuyue nodded, her beautiful eyes filled with a solemn expression.

She knew that Ye Jing had asked her to come along entirely out of concern for her safety.

Qiuyue gripped the array plate tightly, feeling the faint array light flowing on it, her eyes filled with determination. She would definitely not hold the young master back.

Although she is not as powerful as Ye Jing, she also has her own persistence and strength.

The two figures flashed and disappeared into the clouds, reappearing at the bottom of the ferry's cabin.

Ye Jing stared at the dark cabin, his brows furrowed, the unease in his heart growing stronger.

Something malevolent seems to be lurking on the ferry.

"Young Master, are we really going down there?" Qiuyue's voice was filled with worry; she had clearly sensed the ominous aura as well.

Ye Jing took a deep breath and nodded firmly. "We must go down, otherwise we'll never know the source of this unease."

The two cautiously entered the cabin.

The cabin was pitch black, with only the faint light emanating from the array plates in their hands.

Ye Jing extended his Divine Soul, vigilantly sensing every subtle movement around him.

The array he inscribed could not only conceal one's presence, but also reverse the array's ability to prevent Divine Soul probing on the ship.

However, he still couldn't detect any specific form; all his Divine Soul sensed was a sticky, gooey feeling.

It felt like entering a swamp.

"Young Master, the atmosphere down below is so strange." Even without the 'All Things Understood' ability, Qiuyue could still sense the evil energy below.

"Yes, be careful!" Ye Jing nodded gently, but he was very puzzled.

Why didn't 'All Things Understood' give him any warnings when they first boarded the ship?

And why am I only starting to feel it now?

Therefore, Ye Jing had not inspected the ship like this since boarding.

The interior of the ship's cabin was much larger than Ye Jing had imagined, filled with cargo, resembling a maze with intricate passageways connecting various unknown areas.

They proceeded cautiously along a passage, each step filled with vigilance.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew by, carrying a chilling howl, as if something was watching them from the shadows.

Ye Jing frowned slightly, and a faint golden light emanated from the array plate, forming a protective barrier that enveloped the two of them.

He stared intently into the surrounding darkness, trying to catch any unusual movement.

However, the darkness inside the cabin seemed to engulf everything, even their breathing.

"Young Master, I sense something ahead." Qiuyue's expression was grave.

Ye Jing nodded, signaling her not to panic, and raised her hand, creating a golden flame!

"Great Sun Golden Flame!"

The Great Sun Golden Flame is extremely yang and strong, and has a natural restraint against yin and evil things!

The shield he just used was the Great Sun Golden Flame.

Suddenly, a Dark Shadow swept through the darkness with astonishing speed.

Ye Jing reacted swiftly, and a golden light shot out, striking the Dark Shadow.

"Sizzle..."

The sound of burning filled the air, and the Great Sun Golden Flame instantly engulfed the entire Dark Shadow!

"Ah!"

With a piercing scream, the Dark Shadow was instantly burned to ashes!

Only a trace remained on the ground.

"What is this?" Qiuyue exclaimed in surprise, her brows furrowed!

Ye Jing frowned, squatted down, and carefully examined the marks on the ground.

The traces left behind by the burning of the dark Dark Shadow by the Great Sun Golden Flame emitted a faint, fishy odor.

"A creature I've never seen before, or perhaps it's not even a creature!" Ye Jing said in a deep voice.

The Dark Shadow burned very quickly, but Ye Jing still managed to make out some details.

Enveloped in Dark Shadow was a very slender human figure.

However, its limbs are as thin as chopsticks, and even its head is a thin black stick, all of the same thickness, bent and folded, like a dog standing up, full of eeriness!

"Huff huff..."

In the darkness, the sound of wind seemed to whistle.

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

Then a dense, crawling sound arose.

Ye Jing and Qiuyue instantly became alert, their eyes fixed on the darkness.

The next second, both of their pupils contracted.

The passageway in front of them was swarming with Dark Shadow, crawling densely all around them!

Neither the master nor the servant had trypophobia, but they still felt their scalps tingle looking at it!
