The person was chanting a curse, but their hands were wielding the black magic.

Moo!!

A deep, resonant roar exploded violently!

The entire enclosed space trembled!

The shadow behind Fushiguro expanded wildly, eventually forming a giant, cursed elephant the size of a mountain.

Unlike its previous use in dividing the battlefield in open areas.

This time, the moment the elephant appeared, thick water vapor spread around it, surging and spreading outwards from its center like a tide!

Lu Ziyun's pupils suddenly contracted.

The elephant's enormous trunk seemed to reach into the void, and then—

Like a waterfall cascading down!

The surging, muddy water, like a flood bursting its banks, surged and erupted wildly!

It spread and climbed along the ground at an astonishing speed, quickly submerging the ankles and rising towards the knees.

The entire enclosed space is visibly transforming into a giant water tank that is constantly being filled with water.

For the first time, Lu Ziyun's arrogance was replaced by genuine astonishment.

He actually deduced that my magical power is countered by water?!

"Lu Ziyun 1..."

"Your lightning is faster..."

"My water prison is still the best; it floods up even faster!"

Fuhei stood in the rapidly rising water, which had already submerged him by nearly three meters, completely engulfing the five underground levels.

"Mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah?"

"Mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah!"

Those were the marks left by Lu Ziyun as she struggled and rushed forward frantically underwater!

He clearly realized that this was a deadly threat and that he absolutely could not be trapped in the deep water!

With her astonishing level of magical power, Lu Ziyun suddenly unleashed a terrifying speed despite the heavy water pressure and resistance.

They launched an underwater attack, charging fiercely towards Fushiguro Megumi, who was forced to maintain full range of motion and thus unable to move flexibly!

boom!boom!boom!boom!

A dull thud echoed through the water.

Instead of using a wide-range lightning strike, Lu Ziyun poured all her magical power into her fists, unleashing the purest and most violent underwater combat!

The force of the punch directly squeezed the water flow, creating a brief vacuum channel, and slammed into Fushiguro's chest, abdomen, head and other vital areas!

Fuhei Hui felt pain, his pupils constricted, and blood spilled from his mouth, turning into red mist.

He cannot remove the elephant, which is the key to maintaining this water prison.

However, Fukuro only has one shikigami summoning space and can only rely on physical skills or Lu Ziyun to heal his injuries.

Unlike Lu Ziyun, the resistance of the water slowed Fu Hei's movements by several beats, and each time he blocked, his arms went numb and his internal organs churned.

He could only struggle to block, dodge, and deflect the force in the water.

Under Lu Ziyun's relentless close-range attacks, he was forced to retreat step by step, and the blood foam that kept gushing from his mouth stained the surrounding water a light pink.

However, in the desperate situation where he was struggling to hold on and was almost crushed by the underwater punch, Fukuro's consciousness, blurred by lack of oxygen and excruciating pain, caught a more fatal detail.

water!

This ubiquitous water will become Lu Ziyun's powerful tool for conducting electricity!

The unique electrical manipulation within Lu Ziyun's body did not seem to stop; on the contrary, due to the excellent conductive environment, its accumulated efficiency reached an unprecedented and terrifying speed!

A faint, extremely subtle flash of electricity flickered across the water surrounding them.

That's a sign of the efficient conduction and accumulation of electric charge in an aqueous medium!

"Oh no!" Fushiguro Megumi's alarm bells rang in her mind.

"Mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah!"

"Mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah!"

A fierce, excited light flashed in Lu Ziyun's eyes!

He took a hard kick from Fukuhei Hui, using the force to retreat several meters, his knuckles forming a palm print.

Sizzle!!

There was no deafening explosion, only a sharp, high-frequency piercing sound that exceeded the limits of human hearing!

A blindingly dark purple lightning bolt erupted instantly!

It transformed into a bolt of lightning, piercing through Fushiguro Megumi's hastily raised right arm.

"Well!"

An indescribable pain and numbness instantly engulfed Fu Hei!

He watched helplessly as his right forearm instantly carbonized, shattered, and disintegrated!

Losing an arm means he can't even form the complete Ten Shadow Palm Seal.

But just as his consciousness was about to be swallowed up by the excruciating pain and electric shock, a fierce light flashed again in Fu Hei's bloodshot eyes!

"Now, all of you!"

Fuhei roared with his last ounce of willpower.

The elephant, which had been hovering above the deep water, received its master's final instructions.

Its massive body slowly turned downwards, locking onto Lu Ziyun, who was still sluggish after unleashing a terrifying attack.

"Let's lift weights!"

"Kiss?"

"Mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah!"

Manxiang's mountain-like body, carrying the physical mass manifested through the enhancement of magical power, sank irresistibly towards the deep water area where Lu Ziyun was located!

Caught off guard, Lu Ziyun was struck hard by the sheer physical weight.

It rammed violently into the deep water! Terrifying water pressure surged from all directions, completely halting the upward momentum.

Meanwhile, Fushiguro Megumi, taking advantage of the violent water current caused by the downward pressure of the elephant, desperately paddled with his remaining left arm and legs.

He endured the pain of his severed arm and the dizziness from blood loss.

Swim as fast as you can towards a ventilation duct opening that you've already observed in your memory.

Every inch of movement felt like torture.

Consciousness teetered on the edge of darkness.

But Fuhei cannot stop; he must swim out and secure victory.

We can't stop!

Before the last breath of air ran out from his lungs, Fu Hei's fingers finally touched the solid, rough edge.

It's a broken pipe opening!

Like a dying fish, he used his last bit of strength to force his battered body into the cave entrance.

The body, missing its right arm, crashed heavily onto the floor above.

Is it over...?

Fuhei trembled, trying to raise his head in the slightest possible arc, a gesture that symbolized victory.

however--

Despite being submerged in deep water, Lu Ziyun wore a playful expression that was a hundred times more relaxed than Fu Hei's.

It seems that for Lu Ziyun, this is far from the end of his predicament.

"The accumulation of electric charge..."

A thought flashed through Lu Ziyun's mind, which was burning from lack of oxygen.

"It's never limited to the physical body."

Deeper still, amidst the ruins.

The magical power of the specially made stick-shaped implement had not yet subsided.

Lu Ziyun poured all her remaining spiritual energy into controlling the electric charge!

He frantically channeled the remaining charge within his body and the massive free charge in the surrounding water into the cursed electric baton located on the ground through directional transmission!

Crack! Crack!

The metal surface of the cursed implement suddenly lit up with a dazzling purple light!

The terrifying electrical energy was no longer spreading randomly, but was temporarily restrained by the specially made spell tool and released fiercely in the vertical direction that was most closely connected to the earth!

boom!!!

This explosion did not occur in water, but within thick layers of concrete and rock.

With that overloaded spell tool as the origin, an unimaginable amount of voltage surged, released, and destroyed along the building's steel bars and load-bearing structure!

The solid foundation and floors, five layers thick, cracked under the strain of the directional electrical energy detonated inside.

A vertical gap several meters in diameter pierced through the abyss at the bottom of the water, tearing through layers of obstacles and leading directly to the upper ground where Fukuro Megumi was!

The sunlight once again pierced Lu Ziyun's side, guiding him to a new heavenly ladder standing on the ground.

Soaked to the bone and dressed in rags, yet exuding an even more ferocious white aura than before falling into the water, he leaped out onto this ladder against the current!

"Yo, Sassibuli!"

Lu Ziyun's clear voice struck Fu Hei's nerves, which were on the verge of collapse.
