The Manta Ray Evil Birds swam in a huge circle around Mo Fan and the Bird Emperor. They might be greedy, but they were extremely cautious, too.

They made sure the Bird Emperor was indeed on its last breath. Their eyes suddenly emitted a corrupt light. Even their numb faces looked twisted and uglier!

A Manta Ray Evil Bird began to make its move. The rest of the Manta Ray Evil Birds were obviously not going to miss out on the opportunity, either. In addition to them, Mo Fan noticed a huge number of Featherless Birds that were asleep previously gathering toward them, too. They were excited after picking up the smell of the Bird Emperor’s blood.

A Manta Ray Evil Bird that was leading the way let out an unpleasant cry. Its head resembled a swordfish, and was like a sharp weapon that could penetrate everything. It was gradually speeding itself up by releasing a stream from its back!

The Manta Ray Evil Birds had perfectly straight bodies which minimized both air and water resistance when they were moving. They could also boost their speed significantly by propelling themselves underwater like a jet!

A clearly visible long trail was left behind in the dark sea. Mo Fan happened to be waiting for a chance to vent his anger when the Manta Ray Evil Bird ambushed them. He threw a punch right at the Manta Ray Evil Bird’s head!

The flames were greatly weakened due to the environment, but still sprang at the Manta Ray Evil Bird. It knocked the Manta Ray Evil Bird away, while the flames burned the outer layer of its skin.

The creature spun wildly and eventually stopped around fifty meters away. It lifted its head and glared at Mo Fan!

“Damn it, how is it still alive?” Mo Fan cursed.

It did not necessarily mean the Manta Ray Evil Bird was stronger than he thought. Under normal circumstances, even a Commander-level creature would struggle against Mo Fan’s Fiery Fist of three Soul-grade Flames. It was more than enough to kill a Manta Ray Evil Bird instantly, but Mo Fan was currently deep in the sea. The water resistance, pressure, and the lack of Fire Magic around him had greatly impacted the damage of his spells.

Mo Fan preferred the Fire Element as his main weapon. Little Flame Belle could easily give him the control of a Super Mage over the Fire Magic. He could only rely on the Fire Element if he had to fight so many Manta Ray Evil Birds at a time.

“This isn’t going to work. I must go back to land first. I’m going to die if I fight these things in the water!” Mo Fan murmured.

Mo Fan glanced at the Bird Emperor, which was now lying on the bones. He encapsulated the creature with his Will. It slowly floated up under Mo Fan’s control, covered in a silver light.

Xinxia’s medicine was working. The blood loss and damaged organs were barely under control, but the creature was no longer fit for battle. Mo Fan was already struggling to defend himself while fighting underwater, but he also had to escort a creature over nine meters long with wings extended to safety, from a depth of over a thousand meters! It was clearly a tough job.

However, Mo Fan did not want to abandon the Bird Emperor. He was extremely fond of the creature, similar to a kid who was infatuated with Gundam. He was extremely fortunate to have stumbled into a creature he was fond of. He would not allow it to die in such a humiliating way!

“You scum, come at me! You idiots are going to rot first at the bottom of the sea!” Mo Fan’s eyes glittered. He rarely had such a determined and stern look on his face.

The Manta Ray Evil Birds had no feelings for their Emperor. They merely respected its strength and did not dare to provoke it.

However, they would no longer have to stay on the island that was like a cage to them after killing the Bird Emperor. They could obtain greater strength by feasting on the Bird Emperor, and then they would be able to fly to other islands and conquer them. They would butcher everything in their way, reproduce, and proceed with their endless invasions…

They had picked up the scent of humans to the west of the island many times!

More Manta Ray Evil Birds arrived. The visibility underwater was very poor. To make things worse, the creatures could easily achieve the speed of a bullet without needing to build up speed. Mo Fan barely dodged them while using both Fleeing Shadow and Blink.

The creatures were attacking at an unpleasantly high frequency. Dodging the attack of a Manta Ray Evil Bird did not necessarily mean he was safe, as the creatures would turn around immediately, despite being sent away by their momentum, and fire themselves at Mo Fan like bullets again. Mo Fan was starting to lose his mind after more than a hundred Manta Ray Evil Birds were surrounding him.

Mo Fan was unfamiliar with fighting underwater. He was unable to boost his speed in the water like a Wind Mage or a Water Mage. He would be left with countless holes by now if it weren’t for his Shadow Element!

“The Nyx Regime won’t last for long too. What should I do now!?” Mo Fan’s heart sank. The Nyx Regime was not unbeatable, either. It would stop a nearby enemy at most. Mo Fan did not have a better plan in mind!

The area covered by the Nyx Regime slowly dissipated. A carnelian Manta Ray Evil Bird, obviously one of the Greater Featherless Birds, was cunningly waiting less than fifty meters behind Mo Fan. A spiraling stream of water jetted out of its back. It suddenly dove toward Mo Fan after folding its wings.

“Rock Barrier: Rock Shield!”

Mo Fan instinctively turned around and lifted his right arm like a shield before he even saw the danger. A faint golden-brown light flickered on his arm before dust particles gathered in front of it and formed a double-layered shield!

BANG!

The shield shattered into pieces right away like bubbles. Either way, Mo Fan’s Earth Element was still too weak for a battle of this level, not to mention how lacking his defenses had always been.

The Rock Shield merely weakened an enemy’s attacks to a non-critical level, like a piece of red cloth used to distract a bull, giving Mo Fan a chance to dodge the attack.

Fresh blood squirted out around Mo Fan. It spread rapidly like puddles, but soon thickened upon contacting the cold sea water.

Mo Fan lowered his head and saw an amount of flesh around the size of a hand had been sliced off his thigh. The pain was shocking when the wound was soaked in the icy sea water!
