And so, Su Luo controlled the Wind Boat to fly quickly over the vortex. However, just as they were about to leave the vortex area, for some reason the Wind Boat suddenly started shaking wildly as if it had gone mad!

The group was shaken so badly they lost their balance for a moment.

"Something's wrong! Don't let yourself fall!"

Lin Ji reacted quickly, grabbing the edge of the wind-blown boat with one hand and pulling Su Luo tightly with the other, preventing them from being thrown off.

Chu Wenqing and Feng Xiyue were not so lucky. Even though Lin Ji reminded them, they were a step too slow and were thrown off the Wind Chariot without warning.

Below is a vortex with its mouth wide open, seemingly capable of swallowing everything!

Su Luo shouted, "Chu Wenqing! Feng Xiyue!"

Lin Ji frowned. "Tsk!"

The moment they fell, they immediately summoned their swords, attempting to fly on them. However, they soon discovered that they were unable to mobilize their spiritual energy and could only let their bodies fall freely.

"What the hell! Why can't I fly on a sword?!"

"Damn it! There's a no-fly zone here!"

"Aaaaaah! I'm terrified of water!!!"

Hearing the voices of the two people below fading into the distance, Su Luo instantly realized that this area, like Fan Jing Mountain, must have some kind of formation or barrier preventing cultivators from flying on their swords! It might even be severely affecting their flying vehicles!

If that's the case, then the area beneath this vortex must be incredibly dangerous, and Chu Wenqing and the others are in grave danger!

So she flung away Lin Ji's hand, which was still tightly holding hers, staggered to the side of the boat, took out the Binding Immortal Rope from her storage bag, and threw one end overboard.

The treasures of advanced weapon refiners are truly exceptional!

Almost as soon as Su Luo threw it down, the Binding Immortal Rope fell at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, binding Chu Wenqing and Feng Xiyue and effectively preventing them from freefalling.

However, the two of them were tied up so tightly that they looked rather comical as they swung in the air.

"Uh!"

Su Luo was pulling the two of them, but she was almost pulled down because she wasn't strong enough. Fortunately, Lin Ji reached out in time and helped her hold onto the other end of the Binding Immortal Rope.

Under the moonlight, Chu Wenqing looked down at the huge, dark vortex less than five meters from her feet, and her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, quietly settled down.

"That was terrifying..."

He thought his life was about to end again! Waaah! What kind of place is this? Why is there a no-fly barrier in the human realm?!

Feng Xiyue was in extreme discomfort while hanging in the air. After the joy of escaping death dissipated, she turned her head and glared angrily at Chu Wenqing.

"Didn't you guarantee there wouldn't be any problems?! Is this what you mean by 'no problems'? If it weren't for Su Luo, the two of us would have fallen right in, and even with spiritual power, we probably wouldn't have been able to swim out!"

Chu Wenqing said, feeling wronged and confused: "I had no idea that this godforsaken place would have a no-fly barrier..."

"You just wait! I'll come up here and settle the score with you!"

"Waaah... No, senior sister, I was wrong..."

Affected by the barrier, the Wind-Riding Boat shook more and more violently. Su Luo was tossed around on the Wind-Riding Boat. Even though Lin Ji was there to cushion her fall and prevent her from getting hurt, she still felt so uncomfortable that she almost vomited.

Unable to turn back and unsure of Lin Ji's condition, Su Luo said with some reluctance, "Lin Ji, don't stand behind me, you'll get hurt!"

Lin Ji remained steadfastly behind her, whispering, "I'm fine, don't worry."

Where Su Luo couldn't see, a happy smile appeared on his lips, simply because Su Luo cared about him.

Su Luo knew that Lin Ji was trying to comfort her, but the most important thing now was to get out of here as soon as possible and then bring Chu Wenqing and the others up!

So she said no more and used her magic to make the Wind Chaser retreat, but the Wind Chaser did not react at all. It neither moved forward nor backward, but just kept shaking and spinning in the center of the vortex.

"Damn it! This won't do!" Su Luo gritted her teeth and frowned.

She couldn't escape, and she couldn't touch any barriers or formations in the sea! If this continued, Feng Xingzhou wouldn't last much longer, and she and Lin Ji would probably fall in with him! What should they do?!

Su Luo frowned in thought, but the sound of the two arguing below kept coming to her ears, which made her feel irritable and restless.

They were still holding tightly to the Immortal Binding Rope, not daring to loosen their grip even a little, while the two below were still arguing, even moving their bodies around excitedly!

Immediately, Su Luo shouted angrily, "Enough! Stop arguing! You two, hurry up here!!"

This was the first time Feng Xiyue and Chu Wenqing had been reprimanded so loudly by Su Luo. They were immediately frightened and shrank back, remaining silent.

Then, the two of them grabbed the rope and used their spiritual power to climb up little by little.

Just then, a sudden change occurred. A loud bang came from the dark sky, and black water gushed from the center of the vortex, emanating a terrifying pressure.

Lin Ji sensed something was wrong and subconsciously let go, pulling Su Luo into his arms, trying to use his spiritual power to resist the oppressive force.

Almost simultaneously, the oppressive force poured down, and Chu Wenqing and the other person were directly knocked unconscious by the pressure.

Su Luo was also overwhelmed by the pressure, her eyes were swollen and her head was spinning. She subconsciously gripped the Binding Immortal Rope in her hand. Even though Lin Ji blocked some of it for her, she still couldn't resist it and eventually fainted in Lin Ji's arms.

"Su Luo!"

Lin Ji gritted his teeth, staring intently at the girl in his arms. He called out twice, but she didn't respond. Suddenly, a fierce aura arose within him, and he stopped suppressing it, unleashing his full spiritual power.

With no one holding onto the Binding Immortal Rope, Chu Wenqing and Feng Xiyue fell into the sea while unconscious, about to be swept into the whirlpool.

Lin Ji caught a glimpse of them out of the corner of his eye and, naturally, couldn't just watch the two fall. He shouted sharply, "Cang Yan! Save them!"

"Yes!"

A response suddenly rang out in the air, followed by a cloud of black mist that rushed toward Chu Wenqing and Lin Ji at an eerie speed. Then, Cang Yan appeared in mid-air, holding one in each hand, and bowed to Lin Ji.

"Young Master."

Lin Ji held Su Luo in his arms, staring intently at the sea. His aura suppressed the pressure in the sea, and slowly, the whirlpool slowed down, and the Wind Chaser returned to calm.

Cang Yan jumped onto the Wind Chaser, his back and neck stiff.

Even though he was now at the late Golden Core stage, he couldn't help but feel a sense of fear when facing this pseudo-Nascent Soul stage youth under his terrifying pressure.

After a pause, Cang Yan said, "Young Master, it seems that there is not only a powerful anti-flying barrier below this vortex, but also a terrifying spiritual pressure. I can sense some ancient aura below, so this barrier was probably set up by a powerful array master."

Lin Ji snorted coldly, his eyes instantly turning blood red. He stared at the vortex below with murderous intent, and with a flick of his right hand, the ominous demonic sword Burning Heaven appeared in his hand.

"Pretend to be a ghost!"

Did he really think he was helpless just because he was hiding in the sea? No matter what kind of ghosts or gods they were, they would all die by his sword!

Then, Lin Ji embraced Su Luo with one arm, held his sword in the other, and channeled his spiritual power into the sword, slashing it towards the sea with overwhelming force. With a loud "boom," the terrifying vortex was cleaved open by the sword energy, revealing the sealed barrier inside.

Lin Ji twirled his hand again, gripping the demonic sword and thrusting it downwards. The longsword, carrying the force of a thunderbolt, pierced the barrier. The barrier immediately erupted with dazzling white light, then gradually began to crack and shatter, revealing the world within.

In just a few breaths, the boy cleaved the surging sea with a single sword and destroyed the ancient, advanced barrier inside!

Cang Yan narrowed his eyes, feeling gratified.

It seems he made the right choice!

The Young Master possesses such terrifying cultivation at such a young age; the Right Protector is no match for him. Once the Young Master returns to the Demon Realm, he will quickly become the most powerful and revered Demon King in its history, leading the Demon Realm to unify the world!
