“The black tornado! What do we do?! It’s a once in a century event! Why did we have to meet it?!”

“I don’t want to die! Oh god, help me!”

“No! No! Don’t come here!”

Panicked shouting erupted on deck.
They knew there was no escape from a black tornado.
There was only one ending.

The wind made the ship sway and it was difficult to even stand.
They had to hold onto something to keep balance when the waves hit.
People were toppling all over on deck.

“Everyone in the cabin!” Ming Xi yelled.

Even the siblings, pale faced as they were, went inside.
Everyone’s expressions were serious.
No one could have predicted something like this would have happened so soon after what happened with Mofei.
It had only been one day!

Two more people came in after them.
They were Mofei’s companion: Myron and Tang.
The waves had hit them hard and they were drenched.

“What do we do?! I knew we shouldn’t go to Biluo; now we’re dead!” One of the guys yelled while clutching his head.
It was obvious he was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

“I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die!” said the other.

“Can you two quit it already?! We aren’t ordinary people.
Even if we get swept away, we won’t die, so stop your screaming and crying.” Jier did not appreciate their theatrics.
He slammed the table, glaring at the two cowardly men.

The wind and waves were already annoyingly loud; having these two be so loud was only making his head hurt worse.

Xiao Wu touched the ring on her finger.
Both Little Bun and Little White were inside the dimensional space.
The black tornado outside made her frown.
Why did she feel anxious, panicked, as though something was about to happen?

The two guys listened to Jier, but they looked over with a sneer.
“Don’t you know? That’s a black tornado, a rare once-in-a-century thing.
It nullifies internal energy.[notes] Basically, no matter how powerful you are, you’re just an ordinary person in front of a black tornado.
Otherwise, why do you think those people outside are so frightened? It’s because they know they’re dead.”

Jier’s pupil’s shrank slightly.
He had never heard of a black tornado before.
It wasn’t just Jier.
Ming Xi and the others had never heard of it either.

They were all citizens from the main continent so their knowledge of maritime phenomenon was limited.
Black tornado? They thought it was a black tornado because it was black.
They never thought it was a special tornado that blocked inner energy.

“Are you serious?” Margaret tried to use her qi for magic, but found she couldn’t.
She was like an ordinary person.

Jier and the others also tried, but found they had no luck either.
It was useless, whether they tried qi for magic or martial arts; they were just ordinary people.

“It’s coming! It’s coming!”

“Oh help! I don’t want to die!”

“Please, someone save me! I don’t care who! Just save me!”

The crew and guards hired by Hart wailed in ragged voices filled with fear.

The black tornado was coming.
They knew what to do.

“Everyone! Hold hands! Do not let go!” Ming Xi’s yell brought everyone back to their senses.
They formed a circle as they held hands, even Myron and Tang joined in, after all no one wanted to die.
As long as there was hope, they would hold on.

Soon enough the merchant ship was swept up in the tornado and everything began spinning all topsy turvy.

“Ah!”

Everyone screamed.
It felt like they had turned into spinning toy tops.
It felt like the ship was being torn apart.

Feng Wu held tight onto Ming Xi and Jier.
She couldn’t even open her eyes because the wind was so fierce.
A sea creature suddenly smashed into the group.
Ming Xi and them were OK, but Byron, Tang, and the siblings were hit hard by the creature.
They were hit very hard and involuntarily released their grip.

Ming Xi didn’t have the luxury to worry about them.
He was still connected to Feng Wu, Jier, Leo and Ink,m but things were still dangerous.

It wasn’t just one sea creature caught up in the tornado, but thousands.
Not to mention there were all the bits and pieces of the broken ship.
No matter how these things hit, it would be painful.
They would be seriously injured even if they survived the impact.

They would have been fine if they still had their abilities because they could have created a shield, but as ordinary people they couldn’t do anything other than pray not to get hit.

There is a saying: What you most fear is what will come to you.
They had, through luck, escaped the first catastrophe, however the second came quickly.
This time it wasn’t a sea creature that smacked into them, but rather they were the ones who would hit the sea creature.

A huge fish was struggling in front of them.
The wind picked the group up and tossed them in the direction of the fish.
Who knew what impact would bring?

“Find a way to get to the middle!” Ming Xi yelled.

A pity the wind was too loud and his voice was lost.

“What did you say?!” The wind blew their voices away as soon as they spoke.

Ming Xi had no choice but to use his eyes to communicate.
Fortunately, everyone understood and quickly cooperated.

Moving to the center wasn’t easy.
There was also a problem.
There was the immediate issue of their oncoming collision with the fish.

It was just an ordinary sea creature and not a magical beast, even still, it wasn’t small.
It had really thick skin.
They weren’t sure if their thin arms and legs would break upon collision.

No matter how unwilling they were, they still bumped into each other.
Luckily it was at the soft underbelly of the fish and not the harder back or head areas.
It was painful, but they escaped without internal bleeding.

They weren’t sure what was worse – the fear or the pain.

The faster the wind turned, the more beasts and creatures were ensnared.
There was so much marine life enmeshed in the tornado.
Several other ships also got caught.
