A set of swordsmanship moves taught by the Elf Sword Saint swiftly dispatched two Shadow Demon Summoners.
One Shadow Demon yielded a deep purple Shadow Demon Core, while the other produced a Source Material.
Lu Heng had no time to study what the Source Material was, quickly turning to support other teammates.
Liu Haiyang and others are indeed Ocean System Warriors, among the humans, they have the strongest underwater combat power, but fighting against the Sea Demon Clan who inherently belong to the deep sea, they have no advantage.
Shadow Demons are also a type of demon creature that can survive without oxygen, meaning the Shadow Demon Summoners do not need Underwater Breathing, underwater acceleration, or similar skills, inherently possessing one or two more skills than the human Ocean System Warriors.
Therefore, although Liu Haiyang and others fight in the water, the pressure is still enormous.
Team members with low combat power frequently face danger.
Fortunately, Cao Lixiong, the Deep Sea Energy Shield Guard, relies on his class ability to help his teammates withstand many attacks, barely holding the situation together.
Even so, the Ocean Team is in great danger, with some members already injured, blood flowing into the seawater, driving the Shadow Demons even more frenetic.
Liu Haiyang immediately made a decision, ordering the entire team to escort the injured member ashore.
Jiang Shaoran rolled up a giant wave to send the injured member to the sea surface.
As the injured teammate just surfaced, two Shadow Demons burst through the water.
The two Shadow Demons laughed eerily, and shouted in demonic tongues: "Powerful seawater, we will become even stronger."
Indeed, this was true.
After leaving the seawater, due to their special body structure, they possess extremely strong flying abilities.
They could dive down from the sky to hunt their targets.
These two Shadow Demons, after bursting out of the water, flew a hundred meters high, then turned to dive down, their speed increasing rapidly.
When the dive reached 30 meters from the injured teammate, the two Shadow Demons were surrounded by a ring of white mist, exploding with a thunderous roar.
This was clearly a Sonic Boom Cloud; the two Shadow Demons, during their dive, broke the sound barrier, extending their claws, to attack the injured teammate below.
The injured teammate had just surfaced and had no time to find a place to land before being attacked by a sound explosion level assault from behind.
The injured teammate had not yet heard the sonic boom when the claws of the two Shadow Demons reached his back.
Because the two Shadow Demons broke the sound barrier, their attack arrived ahead of the sound explosion.
Only one person on the scene could detect this terrifying attack, and that was Su Muyu.
She noticed the two Shadow Demons breaking the sound barrier, showed a worried expression, and immediately shouted in the communication channel: "Quickly dive into the water!"
The transmission speed of the communication channel was faster than sound speed, so the injured teammate heard this reminder and wanted to dive into the water to evade.
With the resistance of water, just diving one or two meters deep could, even if attacked by the claws of Shadow Demons, prevent critical injury.
However, by the time Su Muyu issued the reminder, it was already too late to dive.
After the two Shadow Demons broke the sound barrier, they crossed the 30 meters distance in just 0.1 seconds.
Just when the injured teammate was about to be pierced through by the Shadow Demons, a sword shadow stabbed from the left sky.
After ascending to Level 43, Lu Heng's agility attribute had reached 161 points, and [Wind God Step] after charging could shoot out at an extreme speed of 620 meters per second.
This was already close to twice the speed of sound, very fast indeed.
However, to intercept the two Shadow Demons that had also broken the sound barrier, 620 meters per second was still insufficient.
Therefore, when Lu Heng saw the Sonic Boom Cloud erupt on the two Shadow Demons, he activated [Shadow Traversal], with a speed boost of 300%.
Together with the acceleration from [Wind God Step] charging, the speed instantly broke through to 958 meters per second, nearly three times the speed of the two Shadow Demons.
At the moment just before the two Shadow Demons were about to pierce the injured teammate, Lu Heng's sword light anticipated, one horizontal sword, slicing across the bodies of the two Shadow Demons.
A near triple sonic speed sword, the kinetic energy from the light screen was enough to explode through everything.
When the two Shadow Demons were merely a meter away from the injured teammate, they burst open violently, emanating two plumes of Shadow Energy.
The injured teammate, at the moment he turned back to see the Shadow Demons, thought he was going to die on the spot.
He had seen this Shadow Demon attack means before, relying on speed and the sharpness of their claws to pierce through the target's chest, ripping the target into two halves.
Yet, just as he thought he was going to die, he saw a sword light from the sky, slicing the two Shadow Demons into two magnificent dark purple fireworks.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and find a place to bandage your wound!" Lu Heng blocked two Shadow Demons for him, turned back to see the stunned Ocean Team member and quickly reminded.
"Uh...yes! Yes!" The injured member hurriedly scanned around, then swam toward the distant reef.
He belonged to the Ocean System fortification, his swimming speed was very fast, and in no time he was ashore, beginning to treat his wound.
Lu Heng continued to support other teammates.
Just now, after slaying two Shadow Demons, he absorbed 2000 points of energy.
Also, an additional Shadow Demon Core was extracted.
Su Muyu, after surfacing, unfolded the Sky Dome Lord Wings, flying in the air, feeling much freer.
One Shadow Demon refused to leave her alone, so she led the Shadow Demon around in the air, while simultaneously controlling the Chongming Bird to assist other teammates.
If she were to recall the Chongming Bird, she had the ability to battle this Shadow Demon, but other teammates needed help more, so she divided her attention, using the flying speed to pull the Shadow Demon while controlling the Chongming Bird to help other teammates.
