Chapter 544 The Wind and the Moon

The next instant, the ocean roared. Earthshaking shrieking burst out from the deep sea. Every drop of water was trembling. It was as if the creature was tearing apart its own body by the roaring and a horrible aether reaction was triggered in the deep sea. It seemed like the whole lightless sea quivered. With the shrieking, horrible force came together and broke Ye Qingxuan's illusion.

In just one blink, the anchor pointed Ye Qingxuan had planted for his magic was all destroyed. The colossal illusional realm collapsed into nothing in no time.

Then, winds and waves stopped moving. A weird silence filled the whole space. On the ship, the Son of Phoenix closed his eyes to check out the Mountain of Nomadism. Yet when he saw its movements, he trembled with fear.

One, two, three, four, five…17. It had created 17 aether waves! The horrible aether waves were generated from every huge joint of its body. The devils' blood with the power of catastrophe was ignited in fury and burning in the massive body. With the brutal nature of the beast as fire, and with its blood and breath as firewood, it was burning the fire of horror which was everyone's nightmare.

At that moment, in that body as huge as a mountain. Waves of the same frequency were generated from the biggest 17 parts of its spinal column. It was like 17 masters from the deep-sea joining hands to play the Symphony of Predestination, summoning the descending of nightmares.

A terrible whirlpool was thus generated. A hurricane then took shape between the sky and the sea. The dark clouds were rolling, endless thunder and lightning releasing formidable power. Drawn by the storm and vapor, lightning struck down from the sky with the fast spinning whirlpool, forming a bloodcurdling hurricane. It was like the column that supported the heaven from falling down.

The hurricane, no smaller than the Mountain of Nomadism, raised from the ocean up to the sky, booming and roaring, and released its sucking force. A huge amount of seawater was sucked in and immediately vaporized by the hot current, radiating a burning hot glow.

The hurricane took shape in just one blink, glowing like lava. It raged across the ocean along with the Mountain of Nomadism. The speed of the wind surpassed well beyond the measurable limit of humans. The wind gauge exploded, and the wind was still ramping up its power.

As the sea water was pulled backward by the wind and the hurricane, the iron ship was halted and drawn to the hurricane. In the middle of the hurricane, the furious shrieking of the Mountain of Nomadism was heard. The hurricane was getting closer and closer.

"Mr. Ye!" Igor was in such shock that he shouted toward the sky, "The Keel was only 70% charged! Do something or we are finished! So will be your ambition to save your country!" His voice was immediately torn apart in the hurricane and couldn't go beyond two meters. Yet Ye Qingxuan's voice came into his ears: "Don't worry. Just wait for a moment. You are safe as long as I am still alive."

Igor's face twitched. That's easy for you to say! We are safe when you are alive, but what about after you die? Maybe we'll live a few seconds longer than you do, but is that much of a difference?

He swallowed his urge to say something more, and yelled at the engine room, "Charge the Keel! I don't care if other engines will explode. Get the Keel ready as soon as possible!"

"Three minutes at least, Captain! Three minutes!" The second mate's voice came from the other side of the bronze pipe. "All engines are at maximum power! Even if you take me to serve as the aether transition pump, it will still need three minutes!"

"Three minutes it is, then!" Gritting his teeth and looking into the sky, Igor snatched the holy emblem into his hand and prayed to the God whom he had never believed. "Mr. Ye, my lord, you have been playing the boss the whole time. Now you're hanging out up there! Three minutes! If that thing refuses to die then, it'll be us!"

Up in the sky, Lola's voice was heard by Ye Qingxuan. "Need my help?"

"Will illusions help now? Don't worry and go back to sleep," Ye Qingxuan said. "You are not a saint. Thought realization of illusions might be powerful, but you can't turn more than 400 people into phantoms."

"Then you are on your own." Lola laughed mischievously and went back, leaving Ye Qingxuan struggling. He didn't expect that this monster's final move would be such a horrible music movement of modifications. It might not be as hopeless as facing a phenomenal catastrophe, yet for them, they both were so deadly that it was almost the same.

He was not very good at handling this sort of movement from the School of Modifications and usually got beaten up by a musician from the School of Modifications, not to mention a hurricane like this.

Yet, it was quite easy to nail it.

After resonation with the Quiet Moon, his Silent Dream had reached the final stage of the Wyrmrest Enchantment. One stage further and he could reach the "Ultimate" that could kill all the aether and open a silent realm of "colorless zone" above the black, red, yellow, and white zones. However, a movement like "The Sleeping World," which harmed oneself while killing the enemy was by no means to be used at will. If he entered into the Sleeping World now, it would ruin his ship first instead of the Mountain of Nomadism.

Remember, there were four aether engines overloaded now. The charging of the Keel would be finished in no time. If interrupted now, the depressurized aether in the engines will explode before being assimilated. Then, losing all the aether, Ye Qingxuan and his shabby ship would have to face a powerless yet still furious giant sea monster.

No matter what he did, they would die.

No way to cheat, no way to play his tricks, and no other moves to make, and not enough bags to catch the monster or sticks to knock it out. The only option left for him was…

"A duel?" Rubbing his face, Ye Qingxuan murmured, "I hate this kind of brutal fighting."

In the next moment, the hurricane came. Endless sea water was sucked into the sky and turned into fog, forming the horrible hurricane which expanded across the ocean and the sky. With thunder and lightning within, it was like the greyish-black column supporting the sky was spinning. Compared to it, humans were just tiny specks of dust.

Getting closer to it, Ye Qingxuan was almost torn apart by the wind. This was what it is like when the music movement of modifications reached its extremity. It was as if the whole world was put on the iron chopping board of God and beaten down by God's hammer and fire.

Staring at the Mountain of Nomadism at the deepest part of the hurricane, Ye Qingxuan smiled. "Let's fight the hard way then!"

Let me try and see where my limit lies… he thought.

The next moment, the Indigo Moon rose above the sea. Countless beams of light verged in the shape of an unreal moon, hanging above the sea. Facing the desperately huge hurricane, Ye Qingxuan stretched his hand forward.

Nature Interference!

In a flash, his body got into the "Vacuum" world. His willpower spread out in the moonlight, merging with the spirit of the music movement. Numerous music theories circulated, building the magnificent Symphony of Predestination layer by layer.

The moon quivered once and shed an indigo light as cold as metal.

The wind and the moon clashed.

With the bang, a big boom was generated, shaking the space several hundred nautical miles around.
