“I was able to obtain the sea monsters’ information and thoughts while I was fighting the Trench Demon,” Ding Yumian told Mo Fan.

The Trench Demon was prying into Ding Yumian’s memories, trying to dig up her greatest fears to crush her will.

As the Trench Demon was prying into Ding Yumian’s mind, she could also obtain information from the sea monster’s thoughts while their minds were touching!

Other people might struggle to process the complicated thoughts of a species like the Trench Demon. After all, the darkness and evil of a species from the deep sea could easily overwhelm a normal human’s will.

But Ding Yumian was different. Her extraordinary talent for the Psychic Element had allowed her to process the Trench Demon’s thoughts!

“That’s great. We are unfamiliar with the creatures of the deep sea. Many Mages have died because they don’t understand the enemy,” Mo Fan replied eagerly.

“I could feel the Trench Demon’s sense of superiority. They are viewing themselves as supreme beings and prophets that control everything,” Ding Yumian sneered.

“Can you mimic it?” Mo Fan asked her.

“Mimic it?” Ding Yumian was confused.

“Like mimicking their sense of superiority, or their aura. The Trench Demon was controlling us to lure more people into its trap, so I was thinking of using the same trick back on them. You can mimic the Trench Demon’s means of communication and send an SOS signal to gather the sea monsters here,” Mo Fan urged her.

If the Trench Demon could use its powers to lure them into a trap, why couldn’t they use the same trick to lure the sea monsters into their trap?

The Trench Demon was obviously wise among the sea monsters if it called itself a prophet. The other species were not as intelligent. They might easily fall for the trap!

“I can give it a try, but… how are we going to deal with so many sea monsters at once?” Ding Yumian asked him.

Baiting the sea monsters here was not a problem, but how were they going to kill them? Ding Yumian was not sure if she could influence the sea monsters with her emotions and provoke them to kill themselves…

“It’s fine. Just gather them here and leave the rest to me!” Mo Fan declared confidently.

“Alright, I’ll do it!” Ding Yumian nodded.

The water was flowing upstream from the sea. The waves from the sea were causing half of the Huangpu River to flow in the opposite direction. As a result, the water was clashing halfway through Jiangming Bay and forming into a new lake!

Mo Fan and Ding Yumian had returned to Jiangming Bay. The area was spacious and the residents had already been evacuated.

The sandbank was already underwater, but the bridge still remained.

Ding Yumian stood on the bridge. Her hair drifted elegantly in the wind.

She was analyzing the Trench Demon’s memories. She noticed the Trench Demon was indeed considered superior among the sea monsters. Most of the sea monsters had to obey its orders.

Was it because of this species’ brainpower? Was it the reason the monsters were smart enough to invade inland using the river?

“How did it go?” Mo Fan asked her.

“I have only analyzed a part of its memories. I still need time to understand their complicated thought processes, but it shouldn’t be a problem to lure the sea monsters here,” Ding Yumian replied to him.

“Alright, it’s time to get our revenge, and let those sea monsters taste the Pearl Institute’s wrath!” Mo Fan proclaimed.

Ding Yumian felt a lot more relaxed after seeing Mo Fan’s reaction.

This time, Ding Yumian truly felt how influential the man in front of her was. He did not rely on the Psychic Element or some fancy speech, but his actions!

“Shall I begin?” Ding Yumian asked.

“Do it!”

The waves surging in from the sea were clashing fiercely with the waters coming from upstream. They could hear loud collisions of waves every half a minute.

The waves would explode after colliding with one another, fountaining in all directions!

At first, the waves were the only sound, but a faint rumble soon started coming from other directions. Dark creatures were approaching from along the branches of the river!

The river was almost filled with the creatures. Not only were they moving along the water’s surface, many of them were swimming underneath as well.

The debris in the river was either crushed into pieces or knocked into the air. Ding Yumian was spooked by the terrifying sight.

There were too many of them!

If she had not lured the sea monsters here, she would never have believed so many sea monsters were hiding in the river. It was far more than they had expected!

“Don’t be scared, this place will soon become a scorched ground covered in their graves!” Mo Fan was still standing beside Ding Yumian. He was calm and confident, with some anticipation of the upcoming battle!

He had been through many battles of a similar scale. This was nothing compared to when the army of Undead was released from the Great Pyramid of Giza!

“Mm,” Ding Yumian nodded, reassured.

She had to stay calm, as not only would her emotions influence others, they would also make the sea monsters suspicious while she was mimicking the Trench Demon’s summoning.

“It’s a lot simpler when I don’t have to look for them one-by-one,” Mo Fan grinned.

He looked at the waves coming from the sea.

Let’s start from there…

Mo Fan had activated his Lightning Acupuncture Points while the sea monsters were still in the distance. He kept building up Lightning Magic into a Chaos Vortex.

The timing was perfect!

“Super Spell: Mountain-Sweeping Lightning Curtain!”

Mo Fan shoved his hands forward. The wind started howling and the clouds darkened.

Thick pillars of lightning appeared and stuck all the way to the bottom of the river. Lightning chains interwove like spider webs, with hundreds of lightning arcs scattered in the sky!

The lightning pillars were massive and spectacular, like mountains standing imperiously between the Heavens and Earth!

But they did not remain still. The pillars of lightning were moving along the river, filling its entire width.

Each lightning pillar was brimming with destructive power. The pillars combined were like a lightning curtain splitting two worlds apart. Even the mountains and the land were tiny compared to the moving wall of lightning!

The sea monsters were heading toward Mo Fan in huge numbers, but they found themselves greeted by the lightning curtain, which was sweeping toward them at a shocking pace.

The sea monsters tried to escape, but it was too late.. The lightning curtain covered a massive area. The lightning chains spreading along the bottom of the pillars had filled the whole river!
