Then, Xia Mu floated in the middle of the water and slowly pushed forward with his right hand.

"boom!"

A hemispherical water wave appeared underwater, hurtling forward and repeatedly striking Ye Sheng's body, causing him to sink deeper and deeper into the water.

"Ye Sheng!"

With a startled cry, Jiu Deya quickly put on her diving suit, leaped into the water with a splash, and swam rapidly towards Ye Sheng.

Then, the water surface gradually calmed down and remained still for a full three minutes.

"The Eye of the Wind King can manipulate water underwater? That's amazing..."

Professor Mans stroked his stubble and chuckled.

"Ye Sheng is the strongest when he's with Aki. This is interesting..."

Chapter 113 The Application of the Eye of the Wind King

"I see!"

Selma patted the railing, looking excited: "Ye Sheng really went easy on me just now. Xia Mu could see him within 50 meters of depth, but if it's deeper, vision is almost useless!"

"Don't be too happy yet. Xia Mu's performance with Word of Power far exceeded my expectations. I wonder if he has received special training." Professor Mans said, looking at the river. "Words of Power that purely manipulate the elements are very malleable, whether it's the Eye of the Wind King or Blaze."

In his mind, he subconsciously ruled out the controlling nature of Junyan's high-risk incantation.

“And he may have more than one Word of Power…” Mans added, “Nono has seen him use a red flame.”

"More than one Word of Power?! How is that possible?!" Selma exclaimed, covering her mouth. "Red flames? Is that Word of Power: Blaze?"

Mans shrugged and said, "Your understanding of the dragon world is still very superficial. Who says that everyone can only have one Word of Power? Since some people's Word of Power can evolve, why can't they have two?"

“Who exactly is he…?” Selma murmured.

Mans shrugged indifferently: "None of that matters, anyway, he's my student."

Selma rolled her eyes; it was the first time she'd ever seen a professor so eager to take on students.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, the current around the boat became rapid.

The two stopped talking and focused their attention on the water, so they didn't see Erii silently grabbing a diving helmet.

underwater.

Xia Mu descended to a depth of about 100 meters. The surrounding water was dark, and it was almost impossible to see anything except for a hazy light.

But now that the sun has set, the water's surface, with only a lingering glow, can't let in any more light.

He knew this was the real test.

What should you do if you encounter danger in deep water where there is no sky or land?

The water suddenly started flowing, and Xia Mu turned around instantly, but found nothing unusual.

He remembered that Ye Sheng's Word of Power was a snake, which could probe by releasing retrievable signals to the surrounding area, covering a range of thousands of meters.

When vision is ineffective, his words are practically cheating.

Caesar's Kamaitachi has the same effect.

"puff!"

Suddenly, a long, straight leg swung onto his back.

Xia Mu felt his center of gravity become unstable, and his whole body was flipping up and down in the water, and his sense of direction was suddenly lost.

This is the experience of Shudeya and Ye Sheng: the first move was not intended to cause harm, but to make him lose his sense of direction.

Swinging up and down in deep water is terrifying. Without light and without knowing your direction, it's no different from being at someone's mercy.

"Puff bang bang bang..."

Xia Mu felt long legs constantly reaching out from all around his body, grabbing him and kicking him repeatedly.

It was clearly Akito Shoji's foot; the force wasn't great, but it still caused him pain, and if it continued, he would gradually lose strength.

At this rate, about three minutes...

"Whoosh!"

The moment the vortex wall unfolded, the water flowed around you like a turbine, but this time it failed to sweep over you.

Jiu Deya clearly dodged in time after Ye Sheng reminded him.

"I can't see it, and it's not like it's just some drifting shadow on the ground..."

Xia Mu was being hit, but at the same time he was thinking and feeling the flow of water.

Fortunately, even if his physical strength is not as good as Erii's, it is much stronger than before, and he can withstand a beating.

The Eye of the Wind King is actually weakened a lot underwater, with its endurance only one-third that on water.

"He can sense things through snakes, can I sense things through the wind?"

Xia Mu closed his eyes, since he didn't need them anyway, and then let the water flow around him slowly rotate.

The rotation range gradually expands from around the body to about three meters.

"Wow..."

Suddenly, the water began to surge abnormally.

Xia Mu almost instinctively stepped back to avoid it, and sure enough, a whip kick missed his original spot.

"Wind-driven momentum!"

Before Shuto Aki could recover from the loss of balance, he waved his hand, and the entire stream of water surged forward, making Shuto Aki feel as if he had hit a wall.

At the same time, due to the excessive force of the impact, her hand inevitably loosened for a moment, and she lost the hand she thought she would never let go of...

"Ye Sheng!"

She struggled to move forward, but couldn't control her body.

Xia Mu successfully grabbed Ye Sheng's arm, intending to kick it, but found it was just soft and limp.

"Ok?"

He pulled Ye Sheng closer, only to see a bitter smile on the other's face behind the mask.

The Word of Power: Serpent will cause the user to become paralyzed when it is released.

Every time Ye Sheng released, Jiu Deya would hug him tightly from behind to hold him in place.

That was also the only time they could openly embrace.

He is now in a dilemma. If he breaks the spell, he won't even be able to see the Shotoku Aki. If he doesn't break it, he has already lost.

"Whoosh!"

At that moment, a fiery red color appeared in his perception.

"That is…"

Ye Sheng tried to struggle, but Xia Mu locked him in place.

He shouted loudly, trying to tell Xia Mu that something had happened, but unfortunately their helmets were not on the same frequency, so they couldn't transmit their voices at all.

"drop!"

Xia Mu finally agreed to his connection request.

"Xia Mu! Aki has had an accident! I'll show you the way! Hurry!" Ye Sheng said anxiously.

"Take another closer look," Xia Mu said calmly, releasing him from his grasp.

Seeing his confident demeanor, Ye Sheng calmed down slightly and released the "snake" again.

Then he "saw" the girl in the water as if she were standing there, casually reaching out and gently placing her hand on Shudeyaki's shoulder.

But Jiu Deya was unable to struggle at all, because the river water around her was gradually turning into ice.

"Xia Liyi?!"

Ye Sheng was both surprised and speechless: "She actually came down too."

Xia Mu grabbed his arm and swam towards him: "You're two against one, and she's not allowed to help me?"

“You two are a couple, right? You can’t dive together on missions in the future,” Ye Sheng said.

“I know we won’t let her come with us. It’s safest for us to stay on shore and dive down at the same time,” Xia Mu said.

Ye Sheng paused for a moment: "That makes sense. At least... at least we won't all be in danger together, but if there is danger, we won't be able to rescue each other in time."

Xia Mu glanced at him and said with a smile, "No, we are different from you, so we can't be compared."

"You...we..."

Ye Sheng shut his mouth. He couldn't respond to that question because he wasn't sure if the professor and the others were listening to their conversation up there.

"Kakaka…"

As is well known, ice is less dense than water.

When Erii saw him coming, she casually released Shutoku Aki and put a ring of ice on Ye Shengye, so the unfortunate couple floated up.

“Mumu…”

Her figure seemed unaffected by the water; with a kick of her delicate legs, she swam towards Xia Mu and landed steadily.

Burning Words

However, the wetsuit was very form-fitting, and her clothes were soaked through...

Chapter 114 A Heart Pure as Ice…

"Quick! Pull them up!"

Mans and Selma were startled to see Ye Sheng and Jiu Deya floating motionless on the water.

Once they were pulled up, they discovered they were simply trapped by ice. The ice wasn't very thick, and Mans crushed it with each foot.
