What do you mean by saying that the corpses I sew are all ominous creatures?
Chapter 397 Underwater Currents
The team struggled forward along the steep, slippery rock face in waist-deep water.
The force of the water flow is great, and each step requires a considerable amount of effort.
Just as we had advanced about fifty meters, the cool sensation between my eyebrows suddenly jerked violently.
In my perception network, several huge and cold energy bodies suddenly appeared in the depths of the dark river, which originally only had cold water.
They were skimming along the riverbed, swimming silently and rapidly against the current towards our location, clinging to the silt at the bottom of the river.
Stop.
I lowered my voice and said quickly.
Zhang Xuanqing and his hunting dog, who were walking in front, immediately stopped, and the entire group fell silent.
"What's wrong, Consultant Chen?"
Shan Yan asked in a low voice from behind.
"Something's coming from underwater. It's quite big, and there's more than one."
I stared calmly at the churning, dark green water two meters away, and the malevolent energy within me began to gather at the tip of my right finger.
"They carried a strong aura of yin energy, and their arrival was ill-intentioned."
Upon hearing my words, everyone immediately tensed up.
On land, this fully armed squad can crush most monsters.
However, in such a waist-deep, turbulent, and underground river, not only is everyone's movement severely restricted, but more importantly, the penetrating power of bullets is greatly reduced underwater.
If you fire blindly, it will be difficult to kill the underwater monster.
Moreover, the loud gunshots would create terrifying echoes within the cave, and might even cause stalactites overhead to break and fall.
"Don't fire."
Zhang Xuanqing had obviously thought of this as well. He gripped the hilt of his sword behind his back with a solemn expression.
"Underwater visibility is obstructed, and if they drag you into deep water, the consequences would be unimaginable."
"Everyone move closer to the rock face and form a defensive formation!"
As I watched the abnormal ripples gradually spreading across the water, I spoke:
"Master Zhang, Captain Shanyan, don't be nervous."
Leave the underwater stuff to me.
"Just maintain your formation and keep moving forward."
Shan Yan paused for a moment, then said, "Advisor Chen, you can't see anything underwater at all, how are you going to shoot?"
"I don't need to see with my eyes."
I replied calmly, then suddenly thrust my right hand forward with a sword-like gesture.
"Whoosh!"
A very faint whooshing sound rang out.
A black afterimage shot out from my chest in an instant, and then with a "plop," it silently disappeared into the dark green river.
Those are the black bone needles I incorporated into the tendons of the Meteorite Sea Mirage Dragon.
After breaking through to the early stage of the Fiend Core realm, my spiritual power underwent a qualitative leap, and the limit of my Qi control expanded to more than fifty meters.
Within this area, the bone needle felt like a nerve growing into my body.
Although the resistance of the water flow exists, it is almost negligible under the influence of my malevolent energy.
I closed my eyes and focused all my attention on the cool sensation between my eyebrows and the feedback from the bone needles.
In my mind, a three-dimensional underwater image composed of energy fluctuations gradually became clear.
About ten meters to our left, three monsters, each over three meters long and resembling giant salamanders, were swimming close to the riverbed.
They are covered with a thick layer of dark blue scales, have thick limbs, and sharp webbed claws.
The most disgusting thing is their heads, which have almost no eyes, only a gaping maw covered with barbs.
This is clearly a mutated creature whose genes have been completely distorted by the evil energy.
At that moment, the water monster at the front seemed to have sensed our scent.
With a sudden flick of its thick tail, its massive body, like a torpedo, cleaved through the water and lunged straight at the calf of the leading hound.
"court death."
I silently recited the command and maneuvered the bone needle hovering underwater to meet the attack.
Even underwater, the bone needles move at an astonishing speed.
It transformed into a black current, invisible to the naked eye, and instantly pierced through the monster's wide-open mouth.
"Pfft!"
The terrifying penetrating power of the bone needle was on full display at this moment.
It pierced the monster's hard upper jaw without any resistance, going straight through its brain.
The instant I pierced through, a thought flashed through my mind, and the malevolent energy attached to the bone needle erupted violently.
The monster's brain tissue was instantly turned into a mess by the violent baleful energy.
Its massive body stiffened abruptly underwater, and before it could even utter a scream, it lost all life.
Then it drifted downstream with the rapid current.
"The first one is solved."
I closed my eyes and said in a deep voice.
"Keep moving forward, keep up the pace."
Although no one could see what was happening underwater, seeing my calm and composed demeanor immediately put their minds at ease.
The hunting dog swallowed hard and immediately quickened its pace in the water.
However, the bloody smell emanating from the death of the first monster actually aroused the other two water monsters.
They became even more frenzied, flanking the compass and spirit pivot in the middle of the formation from the left and right.
"Still not giving up."
I slightly hooked my finger.
The bone needle that had just pierced the first monster underwater did not retract. Instead, under my control, a semi-transparent thread that was barely perceptible to the naked eye suddenly extended from its tail.
I quickly changed several hand seals in front of my chest, multitasking.
Under my precise mental control, the bone needle, carrying the several-meter-long mirage dragon silk, weaved and intertwined underwater.
In the blink of an eye, a deadly cutting net was laid out on the path that the two mutated salamanders were bound to take.
The two monsters were completely unaware of the impending danger and continued to sprint at full speed, propelled by the current.
Tragedy struck when their massive bodies collided with the invisible net woven from mirage dragon silk.
The terrifying toughness of the Mirage Dragon Silk, amplified by the monster's own inertia, transformed it into the sharpest cutting machine.
"Sizzle—"
Accompanied by a barely audible muffled sound underwater.
The two three-meter-long water monsters, upon contact with the Mirage Dragon Silk, were like tofu hitting an iron chain, and were forcibly cut into countless pieces.
Their dark red blood instantly spread in the water, but was quickly washed away by the rushing underground river.
With a flick of my finger, I cut off the supply of malevolent energy.
The mirage net, covered in bits of flesh, was quickly swept away by the current and disappeared into the icy river water after losing its skeletal structure as a fulcrum.
The black bone needle, like an obedient fish, circled in the water and returned to my side.
I didn't retract it completely, but instead kept it hovering half a meter below the water's surface, ready to deal with any new threats.
