A cultivator performed a flying escape divine skill and took to the sky, but had barely risen three feet before falling heavily back down: "There's a prohibition in the void, flying escape is impossible!"
The cultivators were at a loss, chattering anxiously, "What do we do now!"
But Master Owen Bertram was calm and unhurried, raising his hand to release Jerry Gourd.
The gourd radiated a strong, bright golden light, quickly expanding as soon as it left the master's palm and transforming into a mountain-like weight, crashing onto the surface of the water with a loud rumble.
The impoverished cultivators noticed that the water from all around surged towards them, automatically condensing into waves and splashing onto the gourd with a patter. The water that could dissolve magical instruments shattered upon hitting the gourd, leaving it safe and sound as it floated on the river.
