Mermaids were very weak in combat when they had no water to control, but as long as they had enough, they would become the most terrible enemies.
Mermaids were born to have an extremely great control over water elements, and the moat of The Rising Sun City became the basis of Xi Yan’s counter-attack.
The Aqua Sea Wave Prison did not do much damage by itself. Its real strength lay in the confinement of the enemy. As long as water could be continuously supplied, the water prison would never be broken.
Xi Yan knew that she wasn’t very strong, and that her attacks would be almost negligible for the devil generals, so she poured all her power into the imprisonment of the enemy. This was Xi Yan’s plan: to pin down Mu Tu, to prevent him from participating in other battles!
Mu Tu frowned at the Aqua Sea Wave Prison that confined him. He had once seen this kind of imprisonment ten thousand years ago in the battle between gods and devils. The multicolored mermaid that accompanied the Sea God at that time used this kind of prison to contain a devil general who had tried to sneak attack the Sea God. In the end, the Sea God killed the devil general in seconds with his own hands.
With the cooperation of a powerful ally, with this kind of imprisonment, it was not difficult to kill the devil generals.
Unfortunately, the number of powerful members of the alliance army was too small to find one that could cooperate with Xi Yan.
Mu Tu constantly attacked the barrier of the Aqua Sea Wave Prison. With each attack, a large amount of water was broken away to moisten the earth. However, the fusion of these water elements was too fast. Xi Yan continuously controlled the water source to irrigate the water prison. The gap that had just been broken by Mu Tu would be filled by fresh water right away; he was unable to create enough of a gap to leave.
Mu Tu didn’t expect that he would be trapped by a seemingly helpless mermaid. He began to attack the Aqua Sea Wave Prison crazily.
Every time a heavy blow struck the Aqua Sea Wave Prison, the distant Xi Yan shivered slightly.
Of all the skills of the merpeople, the Aqua Sea Wave Prison was the most taxing. Xi Yan did not know anything about the merpeople’s abilities before their hometown had been destroyed. Everything she knew she learned from other merpeople only after she was brought out by Shen Yanxiao. Xi Yan was not adept at using these abilities. The only one she could use well was this Aqua Sea Wave Prison.
Only the merpeople knew that the ability of the Aqua Sea Wave Prison to detain the devil generals depended not only on the mastery of water elements, but also on the one doing the imprisoning.
Once the Aqua Sea Wave Prison was broken, the merpeople who cast it would also die at the same time. This was the absolute imprisonment method of the merpeople; it was supported by their own soul.
Xi Yan only had such a move at her disposal, but it was also the deadliest one. If Mu Tu could be locked up until other people’s hands became available to kill, then Xi Yan could still live. If not…
Xi Yan knew the consequences she would face.
Xi Yan did not say anything about the Aqua Sea Wave Prison. Even if she were beaten to death, she would never open her mouth to speak about it, not even to Shen Yanxiao.
She was very aware that she was weak and could not compare with the others. She did not want to hold these others back.
She could only do her best to not become a burden to them.
Mu Tu’s attacks were becoming more and more frequent. Xi Yan’s soul was constantly receiving damage. Her slender body was shaking more and more miserably. She tightly held Neptune’s trident in her hands, and used it as a medium to continuously reinforce and fill up the destroyed parts of the Aqua Sea Wave Prison.
