Chapter 652: Chapter 17: Heaven and Earth Net Grand Formation · Nine Heavens Spirit Lock

After completing the preliminary preparations, the Longbo Giants’ netting operation proceeded surprisingly smoothly.

However, the Jin’ao, who had already awakened their intelligence, were not easily dealt with.

Upon noticing the rapid decline in the number of creatures in this sea area, the Jin’ao began to frequently resurface in this region.

Unfortunately, by the time they realized the severity of the situation, the [Heaven and Earth Net] had already completely surrounded the sea area.

Thus, during this period, the sounds of the Jin’ao’s wailing and the noise they made while attempting to forcibly breach the [Heaven and Earth Net] were frequently heard.

Fortunately, there was a prior warning from Divine Monarch Mengzhang.

Plus, the Longbo Giants’ initial target was the ruins of the Longbo Kingdom.

Therefore, when facing those Jin’ao that forcibly tried to break through, the Longbo Giants simply captured them, removed the ruins of the Longbo Kingdom from their backs, and released them.

But everyone understood this was merely the beginning.

These released Jin’ao were not considered threats at all.

The leader of the Jin’ao, which always stayed hidden in the sea depths, was the real danger.

As long as it didn’t show up, this hunting event would not end.

However, the problem now lay here.

No matter how much the Longbo Giants narrowed the coverage of the [Heaven and Earth Net], the Jin’ao leader remained unseen.

Moreover, after their initial panic, even the Jin’ao mostly stopped trying to forcibly break out of this sea area.

"This situation is very abnormal..."

"This group of Jin’ao seems to have collectively evolved intelligence in a very short time."

Transforming into a human form beside Xiluo, Ying Long frowned as he looked at the seemingly calm sea area not far away.

The Jin’ao were not categorized as intelligent creatures, but more like a beastly existence.

Only a few Innate Divine beings born among them are classified as intelligent creatures.

But now, the situation is that this group of Jin’ao, originally without intelligence, is gradually gaining wisdom, which obviously isn’t a normal scenario.

"Anyone with eyes can see their situation is abnormal."

Reclining lazily on the cliff, Xiluo lightly swung her tail and said.

"But what does this have to do with me?"

"Since you’ve taken over this group of Longbo Giants, you’re the one who should be troubled now."

Hearing this, Ying Long merely continued to ask without surprise.

"Where is the teacher? Where is he now?"

Since he finished instructing Luo Qiao, Li Boyang had mysteriously disappeared.

Ying Long initially thought he might learn about his whereabouts from Xiluo but received only a blank stare in return.

"If I were you, I wouldn’t be concerned about these trivial matters right now."

Before Ying Long could understand the meaning behind Xiluo’s words, he saw the distant sea surface suddenly surge into a tumultuous wave.

Rumbling...

Clearly, it was just the surging of sea waves, yet it emitted a sound akin to thunder and an earthquake.

The next instant, the Longbo Giants in this sea area began to exclaim in surprise.

For in this brief moment, the [Heaven and Earth Net] covering the entire sea area tightened.

It was as if something was dragging the [Heaven and Earth Net] from the seabed.

The massive force even directly pulled several unprepared Longbo Giants into the sea.

Fortunately, the other Longbo Giants quickly reacted and hurriedly exerted force to hold the [Heaven and Earth Net].

Thus, a truly spectacular scene emerged.

From afar, the enormous net seemed to encompass the entire ocean and suddenly pulled taut.

And giants as majestic as mountains flexed their muscles, standing firm like steel nails entrenched on various islands.

These islands were arranged according to some pattern, firmly embedded in the water vein’s nodes, remaining unmoved despite the drag on the net.

Moreover, these nodes themselves emitted a certain power.

When the drag force reached a certain level, faint arcs of light began to spread along the golden threads within the [Heaven and Earth Net].

——Heaven and Earth Net Array: Nine Heavens Spirit Lock!

......................................................

Deep within the seabed, within a massive trench.

"Woo!"

The gigantic Jin’ao leader forcefully sank into the trench, its body enmeshed in golden threads.

Almost upon the array’s activation, a latent and powerful Thunder Power surged into its body along the [Heaven and Earth Net].

Every cell in its body was struck by electrical current, its agony far beyond words.

Yet even in such circumstances, the Jin’ao leader exhibited extraordinary resilience.

It wasn’t aware that its captured kin had been released.

It merely wanted to use its method to gain a slender chance of survival for the remaining Jin’ao.

"Woo!"

Seeing such, despite the fear on their faces, nearby Jin’ao still swam near their leader.

For these Jin’ao, who had begun to develop intelligence, the leader was no longer merely a leader.

An elder, even a parent, seemed more like the identity this Jin’ao leader held in the minds of the Jin’ao.

In such an emotional scene, finally, a brave Jin’ao overcame its fear of the lightning and charged at the [Heaven and Earth Net] as well.

Sizzle...

This Jin’ao lacked the resistance of its leader and was instantly electrocuted.

Upon witnessing this, the remaining Jin’ao also charged heroically at the [Heaven and Earth Net], doing their utmost to share the leader’s burden.

To be honest, had Ying Long not intentionally reduced the array’s power and refrained from executing the Jin’ao...

In mere minutes, these Jin’ao would have suffered massive casualties.

Even so, watching those paralyzed peers, the Jin’ao leader still involuntarily let out a mournful cry.

"Woo!"

As if making some determination, a trace of human-like resolution emerged in the Jin’ao leader’s eyes.

Instantly, the Biyou Palace upon its back shone brightly.

Like a giant black hole, it absorbed all the thunder flowing through this place, further causing the [Heaven and Earth Net] to plummet, trembling the entire sea area as if intending to shatter the array.

In a flash, the Longbo Giants ashore simultaneously exerted force.

The floating islands forming the array indeed began to move, causing the sea vein nodes of this sea area to change.

This unexpected change evidently bewildered the Jin’ao leader.

It only felt that its familiar sea area turned incredibly foreign at this moment.

Ocean currents, water directions, hidden reefs, riverbeds...

Everything had changed.

Even with the Jin’ao leader’s power to shift mountains and overturn seas, it seemed so small in the face of true worldly transformation.
