Chapter 3242 Lesser Fullness (Beast Tide)
Thinking this, Ning Shuang asked, "Fourth Senior Brother, are you... are you really sure you can do it?"
"Won't you be able to play this white jade flute like this?"
Yang Rui: "Cough cough cough, Fifth Junior Sister, don't underestimate your Fourth Senior Brother, cough cough cough..."
"I won't die for now, cough cough cough..."
Ning Shuang: "..."
If you can barely speak, how can you play the flute?
Hua Nian immediately placed her hand on Yang Rui's back, gradually channeling her own energy into his body to make him feel better.
Fifth Junior Sister was unaware of the power of the white jade flute, but Hua Nian was.
Back when they were in the Netherworld Sea, the young lady's fifth senior brother relied on this white jade flute to dominate the battlefield.
She was utterly shocked at the time.
Yang Rui looked at Hu Xiaoman and gave her a reassuring look.
Hu Xiaoman felt a metallic taste rise in her throat again, but she tried her best to hold it in.
Although I don't know how to use the white jade flute in my fourth senior brother's hand, I can tell at a glance that this white jade flute is definitely not an ordinary thing.
Little Peach needs time to activate the minor formation of the Heaven-Slaying Divine Array, so she needs someone to help her share some of the pressure.
Hu Xiaoman nodded to her fourth senior brother.
Although my fourth senior brother was sickly, he was still very reliable at the most crucial moment.
Yang Rui brought the white jade flute to his lips and closed his eyes.
The next moment, a melodious and ethereal sound of a flute flowed from his lips.
The sound of the flute was neither high-pitched nor stirring.
It's like a clear mountain spring, tinkling and melodious;
It's like a gentle evening breeze in the forest, caressing your face.
The sound of the flute pierced through the golden light barrier, crossed the clamor of the ghostly array, and drifted into the distance, towards the endless wilderness and mountains beyond the border city of the ghost realm.
The Ghost Ancestor and the others were all taken aback when they heard the sound of the flute.
"Playing tricks!" Mei Zhentian scoffed disdainfully.
"Even when death is imminent, you still have the mood to play the flute?"
The surrounding cultivators who were watching the spectacle were also discussing it animatedly.
"What is that sickly child doing?"
"Playing a tune to beg for mercy?"
"I think he was terrified, knowing he was going to die, and he played a tune to send himself off."
"that is!"
"Although that woman in red is a formation master, she just coughed up blood."
"That's just how it is."
"Yes, I was actually fooled by her just now."
"Heh, our ghostly race is still the most powerful, hahaha..."
However, just when everyone thought Yang Rui was wasting his time, something unexpected happened.
"Boom...boom...boom..."
The earth began to tremble slightly and rhythmically.
At first, the vibration was very weak, like the gentle tapping of a drum.
But soon, the vibrations became stronger and more frequent!
It was as if a thousand troops were rushing towards this place from all directions!
"What's going on? Is there an earthquake?"
"No! Listen, what's that sound?"
Everyone listened intently and heard a series of loud "shush-shush" and "rumble" sounds, which grew clearer and clearer as they approached.
That sound was a torrent formed by the sounds of countless creatures running, crawling, and roaring!
Ghost Ancestor's expression changed. He suddenly looked up and gazed at the distant horizon.
At the edge of the wilderness, dust billowed and blotted out the sun!
Countless spirit beasts, demonic beasts, monsters... all sorts of creatures converged into a terrifying wave that defied description, rushing toward them with overwhelming force!
Those creatures, with bloodshot eyes and raging roars, seemed to have lost their minds, charging in only one direction.
"Beasts...beast tide!"
A monk screamed as if he had seen a ghost.
"My God! He... he actually summoned a beast tide with his flute music!"
The whole place was in an uproar!
Everyone was terrified by the apocalyptic scene before them.
The cultivators who had come to watch the spectacle screamed and scattered in all directions, fearing they would be swept up by the terrifying beast tide and torn to pieces.
Ning Shuang was also stunned.
She stared in disbelief at Yang Rui's retreating figure.
That fourth senior brother in her memory, who always had a medicine pot in his hand, would pant after walking a few steps, and cough after saying a few words, the fourth senior brother who had used up countless rare and precious herbs, the fourth senior brother who never paid back his debts...
Such extraordinary and all-powerful means?
Ning Shuang blinked: "Is it, or is it just my imagination?"
Blood trickled silently from the corner of Hu Xiaoman's mouth again. She immediately raised her hand to wipe it away: "Fifth Senior Sister, it's not an illusion."
"Fourth Senior Brother, we have really attracted a beast tide."
Ning Shuang suddenly jumped three feet high, her eyes sparkling: "Wow, my fourth senior brother is so amazing!"
Although she was excited, she kept her voice very low, afraid of disturbing the sound of the flute.
She moved closer to Hua Nian and asked softly, "Little Nian, where did my fourth senior brother get this white jade flute?"
She and her fourth senior brother had been fellow disciples for so many years, and she had been in charge of taking care of his health. She had never seen her fourth senior brother possess such a treasure.
Otherwise, she would have made him pay off the debt long ago.
Hua Nian took a deep breath, trying to calm her wildly beating heart.
Seeing such a scene again, she still couldn't help but get excited.
She said, "This white jade flute... we obtained it in the Netherworld Sea."
Hua Nian's voice trembled slightly, as if she had returned to that dark and dangerous sea.
"That place is even more terrifying than the legends say."
"The seawater is black, and it is full of all kinds of powerful sea monsters."
"They are corrupted by ghostly energy, becoming extremely violent and attacking any living thing that enters their territory."
“We encountered countless attacks along the way, and several times I thought I was going to die.”
"But... every time, it was Brother Yang Rui who stood in front of me."
Her voice lowered, and a picture appeared in her mind.
It was a pitch-black underwater cave, and they were surrounded by a group of sea monsters with countless tentacles.
The sea monsters' tentacles were covered with suckers and barbs, emitting a foul, poisonous odor.
Hua Nian was so frightened that her whole body went limp. All the insects she had conjured were shattered by the sea monster with a single blow.
It was Yang Rui. He coughed violently, and the blood he coughed up stained the seawater red.
He brandished his longsword, severing the tentacles that lunged at him one by one.
His swordsmanship was not flashy, but precise and deadly.
He was clearly a beast tamer, yet he refused to release his level-eight spirit beasts in front of such a sea monster—because he knew that if he released them, they would only be killed by the sea monster.
That was also the first time Hua Nian realized that her sickly older brother Yang Rui was actually such a skilled swordsman.
He was like a tireless machine, stubbornly protecting her even though his body had reached its limit.
That battle lasted a very, very long time.
It seems that once you enter the Nether Sea, time there stands still, making escape impossible.
When the sea monster was slain, the entire sea turned a deep red.
