Chapter 1191: Chapter 1191: Su Linglong’s Heaven’s Net

On the sea ship, over half of the thousand martial artists were taking a sea voyage to the Shenwu Continent for the first time. Faced with the repeated and incessant ramming by hundreds of Dragon Scale Whales, they panicked, became disorganized, and were only focused on self-preservation. How could they possibly think about proactively attacking the Dragon Scale Whales and driving them away from the ship?

On the contrary, some martial artists who had been to the Shenwu Continent before had experienced such situations and were no longer surprised. Knowing that if the sea ship were to be overturned or damaged the consequences would be unimaginable, they began to counterattack under the command and coordination of Wu Rongshan.

"Facing a sea beast attack, everyone on our sea ship either flourishes together or suffers together. So those who are not afraid of death, follow me and get off the ship to repel the sea beasts!"

Steward Wu Rongshan of Green Bamboo Stronghold leapt from the lookout tower to the deck and roared loudly.

Moments later, Wu Rongshan, along with hundreds of willing Vast Level Perfection fighters, and dozens of Cosmic Level beginner experts, bound sturdy ropes around their waists. Then, holding the ropes with one hand and waving their spiritual artifacts with the other, they jumped from the ship and aggressively attacked the Dragon Scale Whales that were ramming the ship.

Among the fighters, there were also Su Linglong, Dongfang Ruhua, Linghu Qianjiao, Linghu Baimei, Zhuge Lian, and others including Ghost Hand, Niu Ben, Xiong Yingxiong, and Wu De.

Wu De, merely a beginner at Vast Level, originally did not want to risk jumping down to battle with the fierce, brutal, and incredibly powerful Dragon Scale Whales. However, under Fang Bai’s taunting gaze, he gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, grabbed a rope, and with loud shouts, jumped down.

Fang Bai lightly tapped his toes and leaped onto the sea ship’s watchtower, his divine sense dispersing and closely monitoring the martial artists who had jumped off the ship.

Fang Bai remaining on the sea ship was per Wu Rongshan’s intention.

To Wu Rongshan, Fang Bai was the strongest among all the martial artists on this ship. By staying on board, he could intervene and rescue any martial artist in danger, thus minimizing casualties on their side.

Hundreds of martial artists who jumped down from the ship, tightened their ropes when they were still several tens of meters above the sea surface, suspended in mid-air, each looking for opportunities to strike at the sea beasts ramming the ship using the spiritual artifacts in their hands.

Although these fighters were mostly of Vast Level Perfection, with the augmentation of spiritual artifacts, their attack power was already very close to that of Cosmic Level experts. Moreover, there were many more of them than the sea beasts, almost making the ratio two to one, therefore giving the spirit beasts in the sea quite the trouble.

Although the sea beasts had strong defensive capabilities and were not seriously injured, when the powerful spiritual artifacts slashed and stabbed at them, they could feel pain, reducing their ability to ram the ship with full force.

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

...

Several crisp sounds of a blade scraping metal, along with sparks flying, came from Su Linglong and others attacking. They were using newly crafted high-grade spiritual artifacts made by Fang Bai, chopping at the layer of scales on the Dragon Scale Whales.

The cultivation level of Su Linglong and the others, although only beginner level at Vast Level, gave each of them the ability to challenge those beyond their level. Coupled with the help of high-grade spiritual artifacts, their attack power was comparable to Cosmic Level beginner experts. Their spiritual artifacts easily split the layer of scales covering the Dragon Scale Whales, also leaving long wounds on their bodies.

Although only slightly wounded, the fierce-tempered Dragon Scale Whales became infuriated and stopped ramming the ships, instead launching a furious attack on Su Linglong and the others.

"Boom!"

An adult Dragon Scale Whale swung its massive tail, creating a wave several meters high that crashed towards Su Linglong above.

Su Linglong forcefully pulled on a rope with her left hand, her figure nimble as a swallow, leveraging the momentum to rise two meters and barely dodging the onslaught of the wave.

"Behold my Heaven’s Net!"

Su Linglong’s beautiful eyes sparkled with a cold gleam, and amidst her shrill shout, she quickly waved the wood element spiritual artifact "Jade Soul Hook Rod" in her hand, weaving thousands of hair-thin, green wood element qi into a massive net in the air, which she cast down over the Dragon Scale Whale beneath her.

Su Linglong was employing the wood element martial arts "Heaven’s Net," a technique she learned from Fang Bai.

Although Heaven’s Net doesn’t directly take lives, those martial artists who are caught and have insufficient strength find it exceedingly difficult to escape, unable to move or fight back, leaving them open to attacks.

The Dragon Scale Whale couldn’t avoid it in time and was securely ensnared by the Heaven’s Net made from thousands of strands of wood element qi.

These strands of wood element qi were like solid matter, tough and elastic; the more the Dragon Scale Whale struggled, the tighter the net tightened around it.

However, deploying Heaven’s Net consumed a vast amount of essence energy, and after casting it once, over half of the essence energy in Su Linglong’s Qi Sea was depleted. Struggling to deal with other Dragon Scale Whales, she immediately swallowed a Gathering Yuan Pill.

This Gathering Yuan Pill, a high-grade one long coveted by Cosmic Level Experts, had been given to her by Fang Bai not long ago. A single high-grade Gathering Yuan Pill could be exchanged for a hundred middle-grade ones at the Martial Artists Trading Market, highlighting its immense value.

As its name suggests, a Gathering Yuan Pill is an elixir for condensing essence energy.

The higher the grade of a Gathering Yuan Pill, the faster and more vigorously it consolidates essence energy. A high-grade Gathering Yuan Pill can absorb a large amount of essence energy from the surrounding space in a short period, which martial artists below the Cosmic Level Realm or without a powerful body cannot withstand; it might even cause their bodies to explode.

Su Linglong, possessing an Innate Spiritual Root and having cultivated high-level cultivation techniques martial arts passed down by Fang Bai, could fully withstand the rapid influx of massive amounts of essence energy, faring better than even ordinary Cosmic Level Experts.

With the aid of the high-grade Gathering Yuan Pill, Su Linglong quickly recovered her depleted essence energy and reinvigorated, she swung the Jade Soul Hook Rod again, casting the Heaven’s Net towards another Dragon Scale Whale.

The same scenario played out with Dongfang Ruhua, Linghu Qianjiao, Linghu Baimei, Zhuge Lian, Wu De, Ghost Hand, Niu Ben, and Xiong Yingxiong.

Each, exceptionally gifted and once mentored by Fang Bai, wielded high-quality spiritual artifacts forged by him, and their strength was comparable to Su Linglong’s. After a fierce battle, they too managed to repel several Dragon Scale Whales.

Simultaneously, steward Wu Rongshan and other martial artists from the Green Bamboo Stronghold teamed up in pairs or triples to significantly challenge many Dragon Scale Whales, driving them to dive deep into the sea and flee.

However, some relatively weaker martial artists were injured or even killed by the counterattacks of the Dragon Scale Whales. Although Fang Bai was vigilant in every direction, he was unable to be omnipresent; managing to save some but inevitably unable to save others, he could only sigh inwardly upon witnessing the fall of fellow martial artists.
