The sudden turn of events left the Dao Entrants panic-stricken. No one knew what had happened.
The plan had been going smoothly. By now, Lu Ye had slain at least seven or eight thousand enemies, and no one knew how many Storage Rings filled with Dao Bones he had collected. If nothing unexpected happened, Lu Ye would sooner or later wipe out every enemy that had invaded, all by himself.
Yet Lu Ye, so powerful he was practically invincible, had actually fallen just like that?
Where had the enemy come from?
Who had struck?
There was no time to think. Everyone rushed toward where Lu Ye had fallen into the sea, but one person was faster than all of them—Hua Ci.
Almost three breaths after Lu Ye fell into the sea, Hua Ci had already arrived. Without the slightest hesitation, she plunged headfirst into the Myriad Phenomena Sea.
At the sight, Mang Dang shouted, "Guard the Star Abyss Gate first!"
No matter what had happened to Lu Ye, once he had fallen into the Myriad Phenomena Sea, no one other than Hua Ci could help him. Even Dao Entrants like them could not venture deep into that splendid sea.
Meanwhile, without Lu Ye blocking them at the Star Abyss Gate, invaders were already beginning to emerge one after another.
They had to stabilize the situation quickly. Otherwise, once more and more enemies invaded, they would have no way to hold them back.
Beneath the sea, Hua Ci was filled with anxiety and worry, yet her expression remained utterly calm. She quickly found Lu Ye, carried him out of the Myriad Phenomena Sea, and landed on the nearby Jade Sword Island.
She could sense that Lu Ye was still alive, but he seemed to have fallen unconscious.
This was highly abnormal.
