Chapter 579: Tears of the Merfolk Beneath Jingluo Lake (Part 4)
Xiao Xue was born with a trait that ghost spirits absolutely adore. Although Han Jing couldn’t quite understand how this trait came about—maybe it’s because the little girl is just a bit too cute. That was the only explanation she could think of. As a result, Xiao Xue became very familiar with those intelligent ghost spirits in the Ghost Realm, and generally, she wouldn’t let her spiritual insects harm them.
So now, seeing so many powerful ghost spirits, Xiao Xue was undoubtedly excited.
Han Jing patted Xiao Xue’s head, "Be good, be very careful later, and don’t get lost, understand?"
Xiao Xue nodded, "Got it!"
"Let’s go!" Han Jing controlled the Barrier to continue descending; the shaking became stronger. When they got close to the Mermaid Array, their Barrier was instantly shattered, and they were all thrown into the water.
Next, a massive whirlpool surged like a tsunami!
Lian Xichen quickly used a Barrier to protect An Chuxue, while avoiding the whirlpool and searching for a path down as An Chuxue directed him on where to go!
Han Jing only used a Barrier to protect Xiao Xue, exposing herself fully to the water. She grabbed Xiao Xue with one hand and quickly turned the other hand into mist, freezing the surrounding whirlpools into ice. But obviously, this couldn’t solve the problem as the ice was immediately shattered by a powerful force, turning into countless ice chunks that came rushing at Han Jing!
Xiao Xue dodged along with her mother while releasing her spiritual insects to devour the ghost spirits in the Mermaid Array, guiding them through.
However, they underestimated the power of the Merfolk Clan. The whirlpools’ erratic movement and rotation crazily tore through and devoured their attacks, as if in the face of the Power of Nature, human strength, no matter how extreme, was insignificant and irreversible.
Han Jing exerted a considerable effort to get close to An Chuxue and Lian Xichen, shouting at An Chuxue, "An’an, have you found a way? Where should we go?"
The vast expanse of Jingluo Lake made it difficult to find a flaw in the Merfolk Clan’s defenses. An Chuxue, following behind Lian Xichen, while dodging attacks and looking for a path, found it exhausting and had yet to discover anything new.
"Wait a little longer!" An Chuxue shouted.
This time, Han Jing plunged herself directly into the whirlpool, freezing and solidifying all the whirlpools within a hundred meters around them, causing the nearly frenzied attacks to momentarily halt.
She couldn’t maintain this for long, as the whirlpools were constantly moving. Han Jing had no expertise in Arrays, and if this really was an Array, there must be an array eye. Only by finding the array eye could they possibly break the array or escape it.
An Chuxue quickly scanned the surrounding gaps but still found nothing.
"Mirror, it’s not here. We need to move to another place. Is there a way for us to move towards the two o’clock direction? I’ve noticed the whirlpools are coming from over there!" These whirlpools were constantly shifting and disordered. Without her ability to see the movements on a large scale, it would be impossible to determine where they were spreading from.
Han Jing flicked her left hand, and a red ribbon instantly enveloped Lian Xichen and An Chuxue, then swiftly threw out a blue ribbon in the two o’clock direction!
