C217

The rainstorm hit the yacht, and the thumping sound of Pengpeng was unusually loud. It sounded very disturbing.

The strong wind turned into a monstrous wave. The yacht was shaking violently, and it was very difficult to move forward.

Xiao Mei'er's expression was abnormally focused and her eyes were calm. She did not show any signs of panic because she was getting closer and closer to the nameless island.

As long as the boat could enter that nameless island, Shen Lian and her would be able to survive for the time being … Just then, Shen Lian, who was outside, suddenly jumped into the cockpit. With a puzzled look on his face, he asked Xiao Mei Er, "Sister Mei'er, are you sending a distress signal?"

"I didn't send a distress signal! "What's wrong?"

Xiao Mei Er retorted.

"But I heard a strange noise from the stern."

Shen Lian said.

"What kind of strange sound?"

Xiao Mei Er's heart skipped a beat.

"It's that kind of clock, beep beep beep sound..." I thought you were sending out a signal. "

Shen Lian said.

"Bring me there immediately!"

Xiao Mei Er's expression changed as she realized the seriousness of the situation.

Shen Lian immediately brought Xiao Mei Er to the back of the yacht.

Then, Xiao Mei'er tilted her head to the side to listen. Sure enough, she could hear a weird beeping sound from the stern.

"Eh? "What is that sound?"

After hearing this sound, Xiao Mei Er quickly tried to figure out what it was, but the thunder and rain was too loud, and the weak beeping sound was very soft. For a moment, she could not figure out what exactly it was.

Seeing her serious expression, Shen Lian suddenly felt a great unease in his heart. He had an idea, so he activated the "Truth Mirror".

The spell headed towards the back of the boat where the strange sound was coming from.

Then, Shen Fa saw something strange. Near the stern of the ship, there was a strange device. On it was a changing set of red numbers. "Moreover, this number seems to be a time limit …" Swish! This, this is a bomb! "

Shen Lian immediately understood what was going on. This item was actually a ticking time bomb that had been installed at the back of the yacht and was about to explode!

"What did you say?" There's a bomb on board? "

When Xiao Mei Er heard this, she was stunned and revealed a look of disbelief.

"I'm not wrong!" "Hurry, hurry and get the life jackets!"

Shen Lian did not have time to say anything, as he had already noticed that there was less than a minute left before the bomb exploded.

After he finished speaking, Shen Lian pulled Xiao Mei Er along with him and rushed into the cabin. He randomly grabbed a life jacket and put it on her. He didn't even take it himself and just grabbed Xiao Mei Er along the bow of the ship before jumping into the vast ocean.

After falling into the sea, Shen Lian did not dare to stop at all. Instead, he mustered all his strength and pulled Xiao Mei Er along, swimming towards the distance with all his might.

The two of them had only swam a dozen meters when they heard a "Bang!" behind them.

A loud explosion was heard!

The yacht was instantly shattered in the explosion, which showed how powerful the time bomb was.

In addition, the shockwave from the explosion had turned into a monstrous wave that spread out in all directions.

Shen Lian and Xiao Mei Er were not far from the exploded yacht. In an instant, they were engulfed by the huge wave … The power of the explosion was extremely strong, and the two of them were not far from the yacht, so they were unavoidably affected.

Fortunately, the seawater had absorbed a portion of the shock wave, and in the instant of the explosion, Shen Lian activated the Zhen Qi from Dantian, spreading it all over his body, forming a stream of protective qi that embraced Xiao Mei Er and used his own body to protect her … Even so, when the shockwave spread out, Shen Lian felt as though a gigantic hammer had ruthlessly smashed into his back. That terrifying force was still able to forcefully tear apart his Astral Energy layer.

"Puff …"

Shen Lian only felt as if his entire body was splitting apart. Then, a sweet taste flowed down his throat as he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood!

"AHH!" Shen Lian … What happened to you, Shen Lian? You're hurt! "You, don't scare me …"

Xiao Mei Er was so anxious that she cried out when she felt Shen Lian spitting out blood. She naturally knew that Shen Lian had been reduced to such a state by the shockwave from the explosion because he had used his body to protect himself.

"Rest assured Sister Mei'er, I, I will not die …"

Shen Lian said to Xiao Mei Er.

"But you, you're already vomiting blood!?" "Sob, sob, sob …"

Xiao Mei Er actually started to cry from anxiousness.

"Sister Mei'er, don't... "Don't cry!"

Shen Lian comforted Xiao Mei Er and he took a deep breath in to keep his consciousness. Then he said: "Sister Mei'er, we must live! Can't... Confusion... We have to survive! "

"Yeah, yeah …" We... We must survive! "

Xiao Mei Er hurriedly nodded her head.

"Sister Mei'er, in front of us... Is that the island you were talking about? "

Shen Lian suddenly asked Xiao Mei Er.

Xiao Mei Er hurriedly looked forward. Under the illumination of the lightning in the sky, she could faintly see the outline of an island floating above the water's surface. However, it was still quite a distance away. It should be that nameless island! "Let's swim over there …"

Xiao Mei Er hurriedly said.

"Good!" Sister Mei'er, that island is quite far from us, and now that there's such a strong wind and waves, we have to do our best to avoid wasting our strength … "

Shen Lian reminded her.

"Understood …"

Xiao Mei Er nodded, and did not speak further, and swam with Shen Lian towards the nameless island.

The two of them swam nonstop. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the sky. A strong wind whistled as it blew across the sea, creating a tidal wave that overflowed the heavens as it constantly hit their faces … In a situation like that, their speed was greatly affected, but they did not dare to stop because if they did, they would be buried under the sea.

Both of them knew that if they wanted to survive, no matter how bad the weather was, how sore their limbs were, or how tired they were, they would have to keep swimming.

After all, Xiao Mei Er was an ordinary person. After swimming for half an hour with all her might, she was already exhausted and her hands and feet were almost cramping.

Even though Shen Lian was a Cultivator, he had basically no use for his techniques in this vast ocean. He could only endure and bitterly persevere on with his Zhen Qi from Dantian … Fortunately, Shen Lian's cultivation had reached the Core Formation stage. In such a harsh situation, the Qi Sea, Dantian and the powerful zhenqi stored within his veins were greatly affected.

It was also because of this that when Xiao Mei Er was almost unable to move, Shen Lian constantly urged her true energy. As she swam, he pushed her closer to that nameless island amidst the raging storm.

After swimming for at least two hours, the island was getting closer and closer … When Shen Lian saw the waves crashing against the reefs on the island in front of him, he knew that he had finally arrived at the island.

At this time, Shen Lian's true energy and physical strength had already reached the limit. He was too tired and could no longer swim. A wave of darkness assaulted him and Shen Lian gradually lost consciousness …
