I woke up to find myself transmigrated into a disabled child.

Chapter 443 The Awakening of the Halberd

With a flick of his silvery-white tail, Lezhi nimbly dodged the rocks standing in the riverbed; he almost crashed into them head-on. What a close call!

The river continued its ceaseless flow, and although the aquatic plants were not calm, they at least provided shelter for the creatures that inhabited them. However, because Lezhi was too large, even if it managed to grab onto the aquatic plants, it could not maintain its balance for long.

The water was moving too fast, and Lezhi, caught in its current, could not find a moment's peace. As if sensing his intention to save himself, the water became even more violent.

Compared to the forces of nature, his struggles were like a mayfly trying to shake a tree, utterly insignificant.

Having finally managed to grab a slightly thicker branch, Lezhi hadn't even caught her breath when she saw an even more turbulent wave gathering in the distance.

"Holy crap, are you trying to kill me...?"

He spat angrily and cursed, then immediately began thinking about how to save himself.

In Lezhi's current understanding, he was unaware that he could also control water, and instinctively began to use the wind he was already familiar with. The wind vortex that was originally aiding and abetting evil was suddenly attracted to the attention of another party, and the airflow, according to the user's will, entered the rushing river, stirring and resisting it.

The raging river met a formidable opponent, and its torrent gradually slowed. Seeing the method work, Yue Zhi was overjoyed and pressed on with his efforts.

Centered on him, the surrounding airflow rotates clockwise, decreasing in speed, and enters the river in a spiraling downward motion, guiding the direction of the river's flow.

The rushing water quickly merged with the wind, forming a circle around Lezhi. The unobstructed straight road was forcibly carved into a disc. The river was reversed by the wind, and the forces constantly collided and then canceled out. Lezhi, located at the center of the disc, gained a moment of respite with the help of the wind.

But this is not a long-term solution after all.

Although as long as Feng'er is still on Lezhi's side, he is theoretically safe for the time being, he is still in the river. If he wants to be truly safe, it would be best to find a way to leave this place.

But Reixiu and Maoqiu are still in the Red River.

The river roared beside me, and everywhere I looked, water vapor rose. The sky remained clear, but this did not hinder the river's rushing flow.

The long-brewing tide did not stop its advance because of Rakuchi Akira's arrival. The river's outburst was unstoppable, and no matter how strong the wind was, it could only protect Rakuchi for a time.

As the disparity in strength between the two sides widened, the whirlwind protecting Lezhi was gradually worn down, and the water flow that had been painstakingly turned against him also began to defect. Another wave crashed in his face, and he tried to dodge, but at that moment the whirlwind was scattered by the water flow.

"Mmm... gurgle..."

His body was suddenly slammed into the water, and he choked on a mouthful of water before he knew it. The force of the impact made his vision go black for a moment.

The next second, when Lezhi realized what had just happened, his first reaction was not panic, but rage.

The subjects dared to defy the authority of the monarch.

Emotions arose from the heart. When he opened his eyes again, his pure white pupils faintly tinged with a deep blue. The earring that had been sleeping on his right ear reflected the color of his eyes, shimmering and rising, elongating, responding to the monarch's call.

Without any manipulation, the trident, now restored to its original form, willingly burrowed into Lezhi's right palm, its body trembling, urging its master to grip it tightly and use it.

The moment his hand grasped the halberd, a deep blue light flowed between the clasp and the cross-shaped halberd. The newly awakened monarch held his power, commanding his subjects to bow down and submit.

The surging river suddenly fell silent; freedom was shackled, and from then on, they had something they had to obey.

…………

Besides the Red River, all the water systems of Jormungand were shaken. Due to the distance, they were only confused for a few moments before gradually returning to normal once they realized that the aura was not nearby.

Water can return to normal immediately, but people cannot.

The Phantom Sound Clan is the most sensitive to information among the three water-based clans. The tremor in their hearts is so real that they want to investigate it further, but they can't find the source for a long time.

Miaoyin suppressed her panic and was about to contact her friend when Ji Lin sent her a message first.

"Do you feel it?"

"you also……?"

Are the Han Hai tribes so perceptive?

Sensing the suspicion in Miaoyin's tone, Ji Lin didn't argue, but just gave a wry smile, "Normally I might have overlooked it, but this time is different..."

"If I'm not mistaken, that guy must have woken up."

Through the conch shell, Ji Lin's voice was slightly distorted, but Miao Yin could still hear it clearly. Her pupils trembled for a moment, and when she spoke again, her throat was a little tight, "Didn't that person say back then that it had already..."

"No, it is the source of water. As long as the Jormungandr water system exists, it will not disappear. It just stopped responding to us later. Gradually, the elders stopped talking about it, and the younger generation naturally did not know about the origin of the three water races."

It happened a very, very long time ago, so long that those who knew the truth have long since passed away.

"Are you sure? I mean, is it possible that there's been a mistake? After all, so much time has passed, and you haven't seen it with your own eyes, have you?"

She was already eight or nine parts convinced, but it was just too unbelievable. Unless the facts were 100% certain, Miaoyin dared not fully believe it even if there was only the slightest other possibility.

“If that’s what you’re going to say, well, it’s possible I’m wrong, but you should be prepared. If it’s true, the three water-based races should be ready.”

Lin didn't explicitly state what plan he was preparing, nor did he need to.

Silence fell between them; there was no need to continue the conversation, so Ji Lin cut off the connection first. Miao Yin put down the conch shell, just as she was trying to calm herself, when the conch shell lit up again, connecting with her, and a desolate voice came from within.

Sure enough, although Cang Ji was a little slow to react, he wasn't stupid. After a short while, he guessed the source of the anomaly. In particular, when he couldn't contact Ji Lin, Cang Ji knew that the two of them had already communicated beforehand.

Among the three water-based races, the younger generation may not understand what the recent events represent, but the clan leaders and the older, more experienced members are well aware of what they are about to face.

After hearing Miaoyin finish recounting her conversation with Ji Lin, Cang Ji fell silent.

After a long while, so long that Miaoyin thought he had forgotten they were still on the phone and was about to end the call, a voice came from the other end: "Actually, this isn't so bad."

Without waiting for Miaoyin's reply, the conch shell flashed, ending the conversation. Miaoyin was left alone, her expression complex.

…………

At the bottom of the Red River, unaware that his movements had alerted the aquatic creatures, Yuezhi, wielding a cross-shaped halberd, seemed to have his meridians opened by a martial artist, naturally learning to control water.

Just moments ago, they were being chased and battered by the water, but now the situation has immediately changed.

Without the wind forcing its way in, he simply raised his finger to stop the rushing water.

The surging Red River, once a free-roaming wild horse, was tamed in the blink of an eye.

Excess water still needs to be released, but no longer without order. Instead, it is guided by joy and directed to flow in a more suitable and harmless way.

Having figured out the river's course, Lezhi began to care about where his friends were. Although he still couldn't tell directions with his eyes, at least he didn't need to rely on them.

The water flow will naturally show him where his target is.

With the halberd clearing the way, Lezhi made his way smoothly and successfully found the yumu vine... uh, yumu vine ball, that's what it should be called.

Snow sealed the cabin in time. From a distance, the ferry now looked like a giant, irregularly shaped tung ball. If he hadn't clearly sensed that the person he was looking for was inside, Lezhi would have passed by it without even glancing at it.

Okay, that's an exaggeration. I might still watch it, but what should I do now?
