Chapter 184: Chapter 135: The Change of Dayin River!_2

"Go!"

Pan Yun and his two companions lit the Bright Night Divine Lamp and entered into the darkness, heading towards Lin Xiaoqi.

The sound of their footsteps mixed with the splashing of water gradually faded away.

Until the darkness returned to calm.

Lin Yan withdrew his gaze and, tilting his head, said, "The situation has changed, I will stand guard tonight, you all go in and rest."

"This..."

Chen Feng and the other Flag Commanders hesitated and said in a low voice, "You want to take the night watch?"

"At this time, are we still distinguishing between ranks?"

Lin Yan waved his hand, instructing the remaining five to enter the Pure Land.

He then crouched down, pressing his hand, which he had previously coated with water-repellent paste, onto the ground.

The water on the ground immediately dispersed in all directions, away from Lin Yan’s palm.

The water is normal!

Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew his hand and thought to himself, "It seems that Mr. Lu can be wrong too."

Mr. Lu would surely feel relieved knowing that he had guessed wrong.

The situation had not yet deteriorated to a very bad extent.

The water-repellent paste had worked, proving that the water of the Dayin River was still just ordinary river water.

——

Pan Yun and the others, following Lin Xiaoqi, kept running.

But not long after, they realized that Lin Xiaoqi had disappeared.

In the darkness, only their voices could be heard.

"Head left, check downstream, and remember your safety is paramount; retreat immediately if there’s trouble,"

"I have my own ways to protect myself; I’ll go upstream to explore first."

"Make sure to return to Pure Land within an hour and a half."

"..."

Pan Yun and the two men looked at each other.

The light of the Bright Night Divine Lamp revealed their slightly astonished faces.

"Truly a person Wu Chang, the Inspection Envoy, relies on, his cultivation might not be high, but he also has extraordinary courage,"

"Previously, the Inspection Envoy mentioned he was skilled at exploring and had artifacts; he’s different from us, the so-called skilled are bold and fearless."

"Well, we were supposed to explore along the Dayin River anyway; him checking upstream saves us half the trouble."

"Let’s go!"

Then, Pan Yun and the other two headed downstream.

The form of Lin Yan transformed from the Little White Ape strode quickly upstream.

It looked down, grinned, and thought.

The water-repellent paste really works!

Previously outside the Pure Land, its legs had been soaked wet.

But after applying the water-repellent paste, they dried instantly.

Now stepping in the water, the paper-made legs also didn’t get wet.

Continuing forward, it looked left and right to ensure no one was watching, then planned to shed the paper-made body.

Then it emerged from "within its chest and abdomen."

White wings flapped on its back, hovering in the air.

Looking back, it clicked its tongue, "It feels more comfortable moving in my own body, and it spares me from having to run; flying directly is the least effort."

Suddenly, the winged Little White Ape flew rapidly towards the channel of the Dayin River.

Transforming into a streak of white light, it vanished into the night.

Meanwhile, the paper body stood still in the distance.

The water of the Dayin River seemed to have spread on both sides.

The water level continuously rose.

Initially no more than half a foot deep.

About an hour later, it had reached the thigh-level.

But the paper figure, entirely smeared with water-repellent paste,

as the water level gradually rose, avoided the paper figure’s vicinity.

It was as if there was an invisible "barrel" around it!

The paper figure stood in the barrel, unaffected by the surrounding water flow.

Until after half an hour had passed.

The invisible barrel seemed unable to hold any longer!

Boom!!!

The water submerged the paper figure, instantly soaking it, then it dispersed, turning into many pieces of wet paper floating on the water.

——

On the edge of the Pure Land.

Lin Yan stood there, his eyes slightly closed.

He breathed slowly, his expression serene.

He had intended to take this opportunity to cultivate further, but his mind was continuously filled with scenes from last night, drinking with Pei Xiong, the General Flag Envoy, and others.

With a sigh, he sent these thoughts to the palm of his hand using the Nirvana Divine Egg, inside that willow sapling.

His own thoughts became much clearer, and his perception of the external world sharpened considerably.

Then, his expression subtly changed, he lowered his head, looking solemn.

His shoes were wet.

The water repellent cream had failed.

"This..."

Lin Yan quickly took out the water repellent cream and applied it in his hands.

He then crouched down and scooped up the water.

Looking at the water in his palm, his heart sank.

Just now, he had hoped that perhaps the water repellent cream’s efficacy was limited, only lasting for a while.

Now, it seemed that the water at his feet was different from before!

There was a problem with the Dayin River!

The "water" that had first overflowed to this Pure Land was supposed to be ejected by the tide, belonging to the original river water.

But now, the water flowing here must be from the river after the accident occurred!

His expression became more concentrated, just about to speak, he suddenly sensed a disturbance within the Pure Land.

In his mind, multiple thoughts flashed through.

In an instant, his heart tightened, and he took a large step backward, shouting, "Get up! Evacuate the Pure Land! Mount the horses, fast!"

"Inspection Envoy?"

Whether it was Chen Feng, the Flag Commander, or the other four junior flags, all were elites from the Observatory.

Even with Wu Chang, the Inspection Envoy on guard outside, they did not dare to completely relax their vigilance.

Hearing the shout of Wu Chang, the Inspection Envoy, almost at the same moment, all drew their swords from their sheaths and leapt up.

Only then did they see the water beginning to flow into the cave entrance.

"The water level has risen?"

Chen Feng, the Flag Commander, paused momentarily.

"Stop talking, mount your horses, let’s go!"

Lin Yan quickly approached, mounted a horse, and also took the reins of two others, heading directly out of the Pure Land.

"Go!"

Chen Feng and the four junior flags, without hesitation, mounted their horses and followed close behind.

They also simultaneously took the reins of Pan Yun and others’ horses, quickly exiting the Pure Land.

In the eerie night, evil spirits neared, coming to claim lives.

But there was a blood light, flickering intermittently.

It was Wu Chang, the Inspection Envoy, who had already drawn his sword, and with every cut, a bloody light flashed.

"The Blood Evil Divine Saber?"

Chen Feng exclaimed in surprise, "Wu Chang, the Inspection Envoy has also cultivated this highly risky forbidden technique?"

"Is it this sword skill?"

One of the junior flags, who had also heard of this technique, spoke out, "A Martial Artist of the Refining Essence Realm can use his own essence blood to drive away evil and break curses. I heard that this sword skill can push the functions of essence blood to the extreme?"

"It has great flaws. I never expected Wu Chang, such a prodigious exceptional being, to cultivate such a perilously flawed forbidden technique."

Chen Feng said this and then added somewhat relievedly, "But then again, if he had not practiced the Blood Evil Divine Saber, even as a Martial Artist of the Refining Essence Realm, he would only barely manage self-defense in the night and could not care for us..."

"Now that he possesses this sword skill, he can protect the few of us."

"Hurry up and follow, don’t fall behind, remember to light up the night with the Night Lamp!

"This night is too perilous, we don’t have the Bright Night Divine Lamp, we need to reach the next Pure Land as soon as possible!"

Following the voice of Chen Feng, the Flag Commander, the junior flags promptly responded, taking out the Night Lamp while riding.

And from ahead, Wu Chang’s voice came again.

"Chen, the Flag Commander!"

"Here!" Chen Feng spurred his horse, catching up: "Inspection Envoy..."

"Light up the beacon, tell Pan Yun and the others to come back!" Lin Yan spoke in a deep tone, "Make sure the location is precise, we can’t have them return to that Pure Land!"

"Yes!"

Chen Feng quickly lit something bizarre he took from his bag, and immediately upon lighting it, smoke billowed and rose.

Even in the night, one could still see a thin line rising into the sky.

After doing all this, Chen Feng couldn’t help but ask, "Inspection Envoy, why do we need to urgently flee that Pure Land? Although water was flowing into it, even if the water level rose all night, it couldn’t flood too high..."

"The water is problematic!"

Lin Yan’s voice was stern, "You can consider the water earlier as ’blood’!"

He turned his head, saying: "The flow of water into the Pure Land will cause the town object within to show anomalies!"

At that moment, Lin Yan’s mind recalled the last time they took refuge in a Pure Land.

That night, a woman committed suicide, causing the town object of that Pure Land to transform into a ferocious Blood Slaughter God General!

And tonight, with the Dayin River’s water becoming problematic and entering the Pure Land, it was akin to an evil spirit invading.

An incident was bound to occur in the Pure Land!

It was yet unknown, what the town object was in this Pure Land,

Whether it would like the last time, transform into a being similar to the Blood Slaughter God General,

Or would it manifest some other kind of ominous sign in a different way?

Regardless, this Pure Land was likely to become unusable for a while!
