Mother-and-Child Sea Mines

Upon realizing he Soul Control, Xing Qi wore an expression of disbelief.

It wasn't that he had any objection to Yi Xuan's Soul Control; after all, he had already considered this possibility beforehand.

Rather, it was because, in his perception, the binding force of Yi Xuan Soul Control Secret Technique was simply too weak.

At this moment, Yi Xuan had already stepped out of the Black Tortoise. Looking at Xing Qi's incredulous expression, Yi Xuan naturally understood what the other was thinking.

However, Yi Xuan didn't explain anything, but instead instructed, "From now on, I will be your advisor in external affairs, strategizing for you, understand? Follow my arrangements. I can not only help you reclaim East Yan City, but also help you obtain North Wave City as well!"

Xing Qi was already extremely fortunate to have survived. Now that Yi Xuan was actually going to help him seize two cities, Xing Qi was naturally overjoyed.

With the mechanical shark no longer a threat, the group of Nascent Soul Cultivator hurriedly came to Xing Qi's side. From afar, they saw Yi Xuan standing with Xing Qi.

After everyone arrived, Xing Qi reintroduced Yi Xuan's identity to them. He explained that the misunderstanding between him and Yi Xuan was nothing more than a misunderstanding, and that it all stemmed from that old man, Hai Yue.

Yi Xuan looked at Xing Qi, who was giving a speech to everyone, and at the loyalty that the Nascent Soul showed to Xing Qi.

He nodded to himself inwardly; indeed, not just anyone could become the city lord of the Eternal Sea.

Look at Xing Qi. Even though he has lost East Yan City, the eyes of the Nascent Soul who follow him are still unwavering, which shows that his personal charisma is indeed strong.

An hour later, led by Xing Qi, the group of people arrived directly near North Wave City.

Looking at North Wave City, which had already activated its defensive formation, Xing Qi's expression was grave. He then said to Yi Xuan, "What did I tell you? That old man will definitely make ample preparations before we're even sure we've suffered heavy losses. Sigh, we should go to East Yan City first. Even if there are Hai Yue people in the city, I've been operating there for many years. Taking it will definitely be much easier than with North Wave City!"

On the way here, Xing Qi and his men had discussed this issue: whether to go to East Yan City first or North Wave City first.

According to their thinking, Hai Yue just left in the direction of North Wave City, so even if he had taken over East Yan City, his highest combat strength should only be Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Moreover, Xing Qi has many trusted confidants in the city. As long as Yi Xuan has a way to break through the city's protective formation, taking East Yan City will be relatively easy.

But Yi Xuan didn't think so; he felt they should go to North Wave City first.

When Xing Qi asked him why, he didn't say anything, but just smiled at Xing Qi.

Xing Qi was furious, but he couldn't argue back, since Yi Xuan was his Soul Control.

So, despite his subordinates' puzzled looks, Xing Qi followed Yi Xuan's suggestion and led his men to North Wave City.

Hearing Xing Qi's complaints, Yi Xuan patted him on the shoulder. "Don't worry, remember to charge straight in once the city's defensive formation is broken. Leave the city's defenses to me; Hai Yue and his men are yours!"

Upon hearing Yi Xuan's words, Xing Qi's eyes lit up. "You have a way to open the city's protective array? The protective array of North Wave City was built during the great war between your Human Clan and the Sea Clan, just like the one in my East Yan City. Even cultivators at the Body Integration Realm cannot break through it!"

Yi Xuan didn't answer his question, but instead instructed, "Don't worry about that. Just focus on dealing with Hai Yue with your men. If you can take him, it means you're capable of controlling two cities. If you can't..."

Before Yi Xuan could finish speaking, Xing Qi waved his hand and said, "You've already solved all the troublesome things for me. If I still can't take him down, I might as well just kill myself!"

Without further hesitation, Yi Xuan whispered the command, "Activate!"

From Yi Xuan's perspective, they did not see any changes in North Wave City.

However, the Sea Clan soldiers on duty above North Wave City noticed something was amiss in the city.

Because one after another, many black spheres slowly floated up from the city. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the black spheres were covered with many sharp spikes, making them look extremely dangerous.

Soon, the soldiers guarding the city reported this situation to Hai Yue.

Standing in the city lord's mansion, Hai Yue naturally saw the black sphere floating in mid-air. Having already witnessed Yi Xuan's mechanical troops, Hai Yue understood that these things must be Yi Xuan's doing.

It seems that Yi Xuan arranged this before leaving North Wave City.

Hai Yue remained very cautious about the unknown.

After instructing the soldiers guarding the city to keep their distance from the sphere, Hai Yue flew to the side of one of the spheres in mid-air. Just as he was about to probe it with his Divine Sense, the black sphere turned red.

Before Hai Yue could react, the sphere exploded.

As if receiving some kind of signal, after that sphere exploded, the spheres in the sky above North Wave City also began to explode one after another. The sky above North Wave City was instantly filled with explosions, and the aftershocks of the explosions stirred up the seawater above North Wave City into chaos.

Even many people in the city were overturned by the aftershocks of the sea.

Xing Qi, who was watching the situation inside the city from a short distance outside, naturally saw this scene. He even saw Hai Yue surrounded by water splashes and bubbles from the explosion. He immediately stood up, preparing to lead his men into the city.

Unexpectedly, a giant hand pressed down on his shoulder. Looking up, he saw that Yi Xuan had somehow already entered the Black Tortoise.

At the same time, Yi Xuan's voice came from the Black Tortoise: "Don't worry, the great formation hasn't been broken yet. What just happened was merely a rehearsal before the attack!"

After hearing Yi Xuan's words, Xing Qi looked towards the city again.

At this moment, the splashes and bubbles around Hai Yue in mid-air had disappeared. To the naked eye, apart from his clothes being somewhat disheveled, he was actually unharmed.

However, the exclamation from above startled Hai Yue.

Looking up, one could see that the protective array above North Wave City was now completely covered by countless black dots.

This is an underwater weapon, the mother-and-child mine, that Yi Xuan created after entering the Eternal Sea.

The mine that just exploded in mid-air above North Wave City was the mother mine. Although it looked powerful, it was just an exaggerated appearance. Its actual power was such that it would be difficult to kill even an ordinary person.

After the mother mine explodes, countless sub-mines inside will be released and will continue to rise due to the gas inside.

At that moment, North Wave City activated its defensive formation again, so countless floating sub-water mines covered the entire defensive formation.

Yi Xuan outside the city, decisively shouted, "Bomb!"

The entire North Wave City seemed to boil over like a pot of water.

Under the detonation of countless mines, the great formation of North Wave City lasted only three seconds before completely disappearing.
