"Binding Spirit Array, trap!"
As the phantom of Jiao Long’s Eye was caught off guard, Yun Ran swiftly formed the seals to trap it, otherwise, it would undoubtedly flee.
The Heavenly Thunder Order, tuning into Yun Ran’s intent, also rapidly expanded at this moment.
"Heavenly Thunder, descend!"
Following Yun Ran’s command, those nearby in the oceanic region watched as thunderclouds quickly gathered overhead, their expressions immediately changing drastically.
Someone had summoned the Heavenly Thunder!
"Quick, other than the Special Administration Bureau’s ships, everyone else retreat immediately, as far as possible!"
The big shots from the South China Branch stationed here were all solemn, for he was well aware of how many of their own were on that cruise ship.
Taoist Xia lacked such ability; therefore, it could only be that young girl Yun Ran.
He had indeed heard of the Yun Family young miss’s ability to summon Heavenly Thunder.
But having never witnessed it before, he largely considered the Yun Family young miss someone specially endorsed by Director Xie.
Others would show some respect, lifting her palanquin to build her reputation.
"Quick, push to maximum horsepower, evacuate all surplus ships!"
The people of the Special Administration Bureau were certain that the vanished cruise ship must still be nearby.
It’s just that it has used some special Xuan Sect methods to obscure their sight; thus, they cannot leave.
The rescue ships lingering nearby were racing back for their lives, as these seasoned seafarers had witnessed the mercilessness of the sea.
The thunderclouds grew denser, covering the whole area, and from a distance, it appeared as though the sea and the sky had merged into a single line.
Even those not from the Xuan Sect, upon witnessing such a scene, felt their hearts leap to their throats; such Heavenly Thunder could overturn this entire region of the sea.
Everyone prayed silently, hoping the thunderstorm would not trigger a tsunami.
The Xuan Sect people who stayed behind were busy yet organized, quickly using all the Magic Artifacts and talismans they had brought with them on their boats, hoping to withstand the onslaught.
In the sky, the thunderclouds visibly entwined with purple and blue light, a sign that lightning was about to strike.
In no time, a roar like that of an ancient fierce beast echoed across the sky.
"Boom~ Clang~"
The sea’s surface also became violently tumultuous, with terrifying waves curling up on what had been a relatively calm surface.
A disaster visible to the naked eye seemed to be imminent.
The faces of the Special Administration Bureau’s people turned graver, but they had done all they could; now, all that remained was to leave it to fate.
Also, at this moment, some of the self-important individuals from the Special Administration Bureau felt, for the first time in the face of such overwhelming power, just how insignificant they really were.
The torrential rain poured down with the purple lightning, and the thunderous roar, along with the blinding flashes of light, almost shattered the spirits of those still nearby.
"Boom~"
A massive bolt of lightning struck a spot that they had investigated before and found nothing.
Then, unexpectedly, the shadow of a cruise ship appeared before the eyes of everyone from the Special Administration Bureau.
"This... why does it look like a mirage of Hai City?"
"No, it’s not a mirage. This is that missing cruise ship. It’s right before our eyes, yet we did not see it.
Had the Heavenly Thunder not been powerful enough, it might have been impossible to break the forces binding the ship."
...
After the first Heavenly Thunder dissipated, the second one seemed to be still gathering strength and did not immediately follow.
The cruise ship’s shadow, initially faint and ethereal, dispersed like a puff of smoke when gently blown by the wind.
"The cruise ship has disappeared! My God, what kind of power is this, that even the Heavenly Thunder cannot completely destroy?"
Meanwhile, people like Yun Ran on the cruise ship felt a significant reduction in pressure when the first Heavenly Thunder struck.
Although from the outside, the cruise ship seemed to be bound once again, the force that locked and confined it had already dispersed by one-third.
A few more Heavenly Thunders, and this spatial-temporal Law Power would be completely shattered by the Heavenly Thunder, which contains High-level Heavenly Rules.
Taoist Xia looked at Yun Ran in shock. Clearly, Yun Ran was despised by the Heavenly Dao, so why would the Heavenly Dao be willing to bring down Heavenly Thunder for her?
This was not normal!
Shortly after, there were several "bang bang bang..." explosions.
Yun Ran looked in the direction of the sounds, and only then did she see that behind the altar’s light and shadow, several jars made of an unknown material had exploded.
What surprised her even more was that several people rolled out from inside, and their aura was very similar to Asheng’s. However, at the moment, their bodies were entirely covered in mucus.
Taoist Xia also looked over. Despite being worldly and experienced, he felt a wave of nausea at the sight. This was clearly the method used by Evil Cultivators to forcefully create Ghost Gu.
[Host, isn’t this the method used by Rong Gu before to create those ghosts, specifically capturing people with Xuan Sect techniques to refine them...]
At the time of the Heavenly Thunder, the Ghost King Pearl, which had sneakily hidden, seemed to have seen something that frightened it even more.
Without any pretense, it fled back into Yun Ran’s pocket as if running for its life.
Yun Ran still remembered how the Ghost King was terrified to death when encountering Rong Gu’s jars, crying out in fear, facing those remarkably fierce ghosts that could devour a Ghost King in one bite.
Now, these people, not yet fully refined, had already frightened the Ghost King to such an extent?
The Black Robed People were all stunned, turning into skeletons in black robes, and Asheng and others were almost refined into ghosts.
All these signs confirmed Yun Ran’s suspicion that behind this so-called sacrifice, someone was waiting to reap the benefits.
"These methods are so vicious and disgusting; they definitely have something to do with Rong Gu."
Thinking of this, anger erupted in Yun Ran’s heart.
Back then in Hai City, she had laid out a Heavenly Net, and even though she had injured Rong Gu, someone intentionally rescued her.
[Host, do you think it’s Rong Gu acting, or has someone acquired these Forbidden Techniques from her, attempting to replicate them?]
"It’s not her; all her methods are despicable and not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao. She remained unharmed before only because she had the ability to deceive the heavens.
But deceiving the Heavenly Dao is not so easy. I destroyed half of her talismans, and she was grievously injured; if she acted again, she would definitely not escape the pursuit of the Heavenly Dao.
Thus, it must be that she made a deal with certain people. On one hand, she needs more resources to recuperate, and on the other, she is retaliating against the Special Administration Bureau."
If Zhao Mingzhu hadn’t decided to get rid of her this time and sent her onto this cruise ship, Rong Gu and the mastermind behind the scenes might have succeeded in their plan.
Now, this first Heavenly Thunder has slain the previously appeared apparition of Jiao Long’s Eye, but it will soon reappear.
