Chapter 1302: The Power of Divine Punishment, Favor From Heaven
Relying on his own strength, Wu Yi would never be able to defeat these water spirits. It was Wu Yi's ability to defeat one of them.
In the past, the monks who were qualified to be favored by the Dragon Kings of the West Sea and selected as guardian spirits were already quite superior among their peers, and they must be proficient in one way.
In order to defeat all the water spirits in one go, either they can break through smoothly and crush them with absolute strength. Or they can only rely on external forces.
The black lotus absorbs the calamity of the Human Dynasty, which is an external force, and the trapped force comes from the heavenly calamity, which is also an external force.
Both are related to the calamity, and it happens that what these water spirits are most afraid of is the calamity force, so Wu Yi's thoughts can also be inferred.
Facing thousands of powerful water spirits, after finding out their weaknesses, Wu Yi did not retreat but advanced, and played close combat with the water spirits.
The following scene can be described as magical, just like a catfish entering a sardine tank, the sardines swam desperately, fearing that they would be caught up by the catfish.
Lights and shadows whistled in the sky, and rainbow lights flickered, bright or dark, with different colors. These were many water spirits running away. Among the countless rainbow lights, there was a light that was quite conspicuous, because wherever this light went, the water spirits there would retreat in all directions.
At this moment, it all depended on the escape techniques of each family. Even though they were refined into water spirits, these people still had the instinct to fight. If they couldn't get away, they would use their magic to nail Wu Yi to the spot, and even evolve the star map with their bare hands, preparing to trap Wu Yi to death.
So, although Wu Yi was ready to promote the spread of the calamity energy and let these water spirits be destroyed by the heavenly punishment, after all the efforts, none of them succeeded. Each water spirit was very capable, and after some training, they even learned to cooperate.
The water spirits wanted to lock Wu Yi to prevent him from running around, and they used various means. They should also understand the threat of the calamity energy around Wu Yi to them, so in terms of the sharpness of the magic, it was far better than before.
Wu Yi's response was much more crude and violent. He rushed forward. Most of his magical powers were blocked by the trapped force, and his spiritual energy was disordered and collapsed. Even if he broke through the obstacle of the trapped force, he still had the black lotus, which could at least protect his inner demon body from being lost.
It was a game of cat and mouse. If you caught it, you would die. If you ran slowly, you would die.
Each water spirit was agile and nimble. They chased back and forth, left and right. They often lost their target while chasing. They had no choice but to find the target again. It was better to say that the mouse was teasing the cat than the cat catching the mouse!
They kept chasing and escaping. In the process of chasing and escaping, magic skills emerged one after another, and magical powers were frequent. Outside the Crystal Palace, there was a gorgeous scene.
A month later, Wu Yi still did not touch a water spirit. Yes, you read that right. He did not touch even a single water spirit. No water spirit was noticed by the Heavenly Dao because of the contamination of calamity.
It seems that Wu Yi has a thousand choices, and the water spirits are all cruising around the Crystal Palace and will not leave the Crystal Palace. It is like putting your hand in a fish box to catch fish. No matter what, you can catch fish.
But in fact, the fish in this fish box are not ordinary fish, but piranhas. When you catch fish, you have to worry about being bitten back by the fish.
In addition, Wu Yi's strength is limited, and the water spirits are also cunning. Within a certain period of time, Wu Yi can only choose one target, and the water spirits can rest. After all the efforts, it is not difficult to imagine the bleak result.
But to say that there is no gain at all is to underestimate Wu Yi. Do you think he will persist for three months without meaning? Impossible.
In the process of chasing and escaping, Wu Yi spread out the black lotus. What is the black lotus? The black lotus is a symbol of calamity. Near the Crystal Palace, the calamity is getting stronger and stronger. While avoiding Wu Yi, the water spirits must be careful to be contaminated by the black lotus, otherwise they will not be able to get good results.
The calamity energy on the water spirits is like a fire that is difficult to extinguish. Even if there is only a little bit of calamity energy, they will have to spend thousands of times more energy to dissipate it. If the calamity energy spreads, they may even have to cut off their arms to survive.
The water spirits are still decisive. Now none of them leave the scene, which shows that they still have consciousness.
On the one hand, the water spirits extinguished the black lotus spread by Wu Yi, and on the other hand, they continued to consume Wu Yi's energy from a distance, playing a protracted war with Wu Yi.
The battle seemed to have returned to the beginning, but of course it was not that simple. The black lotus that was differentiated could not be extinguished so easily. While taking action, the water spirits also needed to be careful not to let the calamity energy take over their bodies, and the speed was very slow.
The water spirits are not low in intelligence. The advantage is that they are flexible against the enemy. Wu Yi has not gained any advantage in the fight with them until now, but there is also a disadvantage, that is, the cooperation is not high. When it is necessary to sacrifice, no one chooses to sacrifice, and each of them protects themselves. This matter of extinguishing the black lotus is an example.
After another month and a half of preparation, the black lotus finally enveloped the Crystal Palace. Then, the calamity burst out, the black fog was heavy, covering the sky and the sun. For a moment, the bright night pearl was dim, and the Crystal Palace lost its original splendor and nobility.
The calamity quickly dissipated, and none of the thousands of water spirits could be immune.
The result of everyone being cautious is that when an avalanche occurs, no snowflake that braves the world is innocent. The relationship between the collective and the individual is always so thought-provoking. Should I focus on the collective? Or the individual? Why should I choose to sacrifice? Why not others sacrifice?
The calamity was so deep that some water spirits could not hold on any longer. They cut off their arms one after another to survive. Even if they cut off their bodies that were stained with calamity, there would be an end to it.
In the turbid water, even the most noble people would find it difficult not to fall, and some of the fall may not even be realized by themselves.
As the water spirits were discovered by the Heavenly Dao as an outlier, the sky above this land was suddenly red and terrifying. There was bright blood in the sky, which fell bit by bit, and boundless calamity was accumulating.
And this change directly sentenced these water spirits to death. Wu Yi triggered the calamity carried by the black lotus, which had a limit after all. Persistence was victory. Against the Heavenly Dao, even Taiyi Shangxian would not have this idea. Would he seek death?
The continuous heavenly punishment eliminated the water spirits that should have left long ago. Wu Yi eliminated a large number of outliers for the Heavenly Dao, which was truly acting on behalf of the Heavenly Dao, not just talking about it.
For this, Wu Yi also gained a lot. The heavens favored him, and Wu Yi gained the golden light of merit that was not weaker than the power of heaven's punishment. He was as light as a swallow and was ready to be canonized as a saint.
This time, he gained a lot.
