Liu Ming, upon realizing that the elder behind him might have used some kind of mind-confusing secret technique, clenched his teeth, and began to form hand seals with his left hand, silently activating the Soul Locking spell.
A faint silver light began to flicker at the center of his forehead, and with that, a vast spiritual force was released, protecting his mind. Only then did he continuously change the hand seals and concentrate on piloting the flying boat at full speed ahead, gaining some distance from the Bronze flying car chasing behind him.
Seeing that Liu Ming seemed unaffected, Old Liu's eyes flashed fiercely, but his tone became gentler than before, even revealing a hint of concern, "Fellow Daoist, your mechanized flying boat is indeed extraordinary—capable of sustaining such long flight and its speed ever increasing. However, I advise you to look at what's beneath your feet first."
