Pets (1)

"Damn, that attack power is terrifying." Fanxin looked at the shattered Diamond Armor on his body, admiring it while also being extremely shocked.

Fortunately, he was wearing Diamond Armor; otherwise, he would have been riddled with bullets and would have been dead long ago.

"Continue," Fanxin commanded after a moment's hesitation.

Although this training is dangerous, it forces him to gradually become stronger, and he is willing to accept this dangerous training. He has decided that he will spend several hours every day in his Diamond Space. He is ready to accept the training of these Diamond Beasts.

Training continues.

Fanxin kept dodging and avoiding, while the Diamond Beast formed an allied army, approaching him step by step. Countless Diamond Spikes rained down from the sky, heading straight for him.

Because they were so densely packed, he could never avoid them. Even when he used his diamond knife and Dragon-Slaying Sword to parry, he couldn't deflect all the Diamond Spikes that were about to hit him.

He trained inside for three hours, his body covered in wounds. Fortunately, most of his injuries were mitigated by the Diamond Armor; otherwise, he would have been dead long ago.

Three hours later, he called a halt.

Afterward, he left the Diamond Space and returned to his bedroom. He took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and then went out onto the deck.

"What are you doing in your room?" Just then, Ren Fang came over, handed him a cup of coffee, and asked.

"Training? I've been training in my own Diamond Space. I've been battling those Diamond Beasts. Although they fight without any strategy, their attack power is very strong. I can feel the pressure when I fight them. This pressure is helping me to slowly become stronger." Diamond Beast Fanxin took the coffee, took a few sips, and said with a smile.

"Can I go?" Ren Fang hesitated for a moment before asking.

"No, you can't go." Upon hearing this, Fanxin shook her head and refused without hesitation.

Because of his Diamond Armor, he could fight the Diamond Beast. However, Ren Fang could not. If Ren Fang could not dodge, she would be injured by the Diamond Spikes. The Diamond Spikes were too dense, and if Ren Fang was hit, she would be seriously injured.

"Then I want to become stronger too!" Ren Fang began to whine. She meant it sincerely, because she also wanted to help Fanxin share his burdens. If she wasn't strong enough, she wouldn't be able to help Fanxin; instead, she would become a burden to Fanxin.

Seeing Ren Fang persisting, Fanxin hesitated for a moment before saying, "Alright, alright! But once you're inside, you have to listen to me, understand?"

The Diamond Beast only obeys his commands; if he tells Diamond Beast to attack, Diamond Beast will never stop. But Ren Fang can no longer command the Diamond Beast. If she acts recklessly and ignores his advice, the Diamond Beast might kill her.

"Okay, I'll listen to you," Ren Fang chuckled and said.

Fanxin nodded, took Ren Fang's hand, and looked at the scenery at the bow of the boat.

"Hey, what's that?" Just as the two were admiring the scenery, the Little Black Cat suddenly meowed.

The two looked in the direction of the Little Black Cat and their expressions immediately changed. They saw a storm heading straight for them. The storm was very strong; after it passed, the waves surged dozens of meters high, like a wall of water.

"That's a storm! Quick, hide the ship on the seabed!" Fanxin Xin shouted.

His ship couldn't withstand such a strong storm; if he didn't take evasive action, it would definitely capsize.

"Understood." The Little Black Cat nodded, immediately furling the sails and retracting the mast. After that, it opened the ship's protective shield. In no time, the ship was completely enveloped by the shield.

"Dive down," the Little Black Cat commanded.

Under its control, the ship immediately submerged and sank to the seabed. The storm was on the surface, and the ship, having submerged, should not be affected.

Once we entered the seabed, everything became calm and peaceful. However, the seabed was pitch black, and we couldn't see anything clearly.

The Little Black Cat suddenly remembered something and immediately took out the huge luminous pearl and placed it in the center of the boat. The pearl emitted a bright light, making everything on the seabed clearly visible.

"Fanxin, we don't know our way around, how do we get there?" the Little Black Cat said.

"Then let's stay here! In a few hours, we'll surface and move forward," Fanxin said after a moment's thought.

"That's fine then." The Little Black Cat nodded, steered the boat, and stopped it at a depth of one thousand meters on the seabed.

Afterwards, they rested in the restaurant while Ren Fang and the Su sisters made desserts in the kitchen.

Everyone enjoyed the meal.

However, perhaps joy turned to sorrow! Just as everyone was celebrating, a colossal creature appeared – a gigantic sea serpent, its size countless times that of the ship. To the sea serpent, the ship was merely its eye.

Robots were monitoring the ship from all sides, so the sudden appearance of the sea snake was naturally detected by the robots.

The Little Black Cat was the first to know what was going on; its expression changed, and it let out a strange cry.

"What's wrong?" Fanxin frowned and asked.

"Boss, there's a behemoth outside... there's a giant outside staring at our ship!" The Little Black Cat was so frightened that it could barely speak.

Upon hearing this, Fan Xin Fanxin nodded, rushed out of the restaurant, and went up to the deck.

Once on deck, he looked up and, sure enough, saw a colossal creature circling around, enveloping the ship. It didn't attack immediately; he wondered what it was thinking.

Everyone came out, and when they saw that enormous creature, everyone was unsettled. Those with a weaker constitution started sweating profusely.

"Captain, I... what should we do?" Su Hai asked. She clung tightly to Su Mei, terrified, worried that they would be devoured by the sea snake.

"Boss, what should we do? It's deep in thought right now. We need to think of a solution!" the Little Black Cat said immediately. It meant they should leave immediately, otherwise, they and their boat would become food for the sea snakes.

"What do you think we should do?" Fanxin asked, looking at those who hadn't spoken.

"Kill it, then stew it and eat it," Langyue said, licking her lips.

It's not afraid because it can survive underwater. So even if a sea snake swallows it whole, it can still break open the snake's belly and escape successfully.

"Stop messing around! Do you even know how big it is?!" The Little Black Cat punched Langyue and shouted in dissatisfaction.

It's a demon-wielding ability user; it can't fall into the sea, or it'll be dead. Langyue's actions are undoubtedly provoking the sea serpent, with unimaginable consequences. Therefore, it disagrees.

"I'll do whatever you say," Ren Fang said calmly. She believed in Fanxin's abilities, so she wasn't afraid.

"You decide! As long as you can live, that's fine," Lin Haicheng said with a dry laugh. He couldn't defeat this monster, so he had no choice but to leave it to fate.

"Hehe, that's good." Fanxin smiled and said, "Hey, what do you guys think about keeping it as a pet?"

Upon Fanxin Xin's words, everyone stared wide-eyed and gaped in disbelief.

The sea serpent was enormous, comparable to Sea Kings, and possessed immense strength; a single tail could destroy a warship. They were barely able to escape, yet this Fanxin wanted to keep it as a pet—wasn't that a joke?

"Captain, you're not joking, are you?" the Su sisters asked hurriedly.

Fanxin shook his head, indicating that he was absolutely not joking.

"It won't succeed. That sea serpent is too big. Look at its scales; each one is as big as us. If it gets angry, our ship will definitely be destroyed," Ren Fang said. Although she trusted Fanxin, she didn't quite agree with his decision because it was far too dangerous.

"I have no objection, hehe, then we'll have a good helper when fighting naval battles with others in the future," Langyue said excitedly.

"Whatever you want! As long as you can live," the Little Black Cat said. It didn't stop him, because it had been with Fanxin for over ten years and knew Fanxin personality. Once Fanxin made up his mind, no one could change it. So, since Fanxin had said so, he would definitely do it.

Although Fanxin's actions were reckless, it felt that success was not impossible, because Fanxin could now move freely in the sea at great speed, and it believed it still had a chance of defeating the sea serpent.

"What a madman," Lin Haicheng said with a wry smile.

He could only manage a wry smile, for what was about to unfold was inevitably a breathtaking battle, one in which he would be utterly powerless.

"Alright, everyone, don't be so pessimistic," Fanxin said. "Later, Ren Fang, the Su sisters, Little Black Cat, and Lin Haicheng, you all need to hide in Wolf Valley. Don't come out unless I call you, understand?"

"Understood."

Ren Fang and the others said.

"That's good. Also, Ren Fang, you need to prepare the fourth level of Wolf Valley. If I successfully subdue it, that behemoth will be placed on the fourth level from now on. Unless there's a major battle, I won't use it." Fanxin nodded and said.

His decision to keep this giant sea serpent as a pet was not a whim, but rather purposeful. Sea serpents are marine creatures, and if he encounters serious trouble at sea in the future, one that even he himself cannot resolve, he can release this sea serpent to shield him.

Sea serpents are enormous and incredibly strong; once they unleash their power, they will wreak havoc on a vast area. This would give them a chance to escape.

"Understood, I'll go prepare right away." Ren Fang nodded slightly upon hearing this and said, "However, it has a huge appetite, what will we feed it in the future!"

The sea snake was so huge that its appetite must be enormous; the food they usually bought wouldn't even be enough to fill its teeth. Therefore, she was somewhat troubled about feeding this sea snake.

"Hmph, aren't there Sea Kings? Every now and then, I'll just hunt Sea Kings down and throw it in for it to eat, isn't that enough?" Fanxin said with a smile.

"Oh, I see! Then there's no problem." Ren Fang nodded slightly and said.

"Boss, Sea Kings are huge creatures too, why do you want to keep sea snakes?" The Little Black Cat sensed something was wrong and immediately asked.

Sea Kings are enormous creatures, especially Sea Kings in the Calm Belt. They are incredibly large; you would look tiny next to them.

"Don't ask any more questions, I have my own plans." Upon hearing this, Fanxin waved his hand and said, "You all hurry up and go into Wolf Valley! I'm about to make my move."

Seeing that Fanxin wouldn't say anything, the Little Black Cat had no choice but to keep quiet. Afterward, it led everyone into the Wolf Valley.

Only Fanxin and Langyue remained on the boat.

"Hey, what exactly is your purpose?" Langyue asked curiously. From the Little Black Cat's words, it also sensed that something was wrong. If Fanxin wanted to feed large creatures, there were plenty in the Calm Belt. Fanxin could have as many as he wanted. There was no need for Fanxin to be bothered by this sea serpent.

"Hehe, look at the head of this sea snake, what do you see?" Fanxin said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Langyue, using the light of the luminous pearl, took a closer look. She saw two protrusions on the snake's head that looked like two horns.

"Nothing special, just two protrusions, like two horns," Langyue said.

"That's right. This snake can no longer be called a snake; it's slowly evolving," Fanxin said. "Snakes generally evolve into dragons, although the possibility is extremely low. However, I'm willing to take the gamble."

"Oh, so you're planning to create a dragon, right?" Langyue said.

"Not bad." Fanxin Xin chuckled and said, "I have dragon blood and a dragon soul; I can make it evolve completely."

The dragon blood belonged to the Arlong, which he collected specifically when his soul invaded the Arlong's body. He believed the dragon blood would be of great use, so he collected it and kept it for future use. The dragon soul, however, belonged to the Giant Dragon, most of which had dissipated into the air. But before leaving this world, the Giant Dragon left behind a portion of its unconscious soul.

He believed that with these two things, he could completely transform a snake into a dragon.

"Hehe, you've got quite the ambition," Langyue said.

"Of course. Alright, enough talk. The ship is yours, and I'll take the sea serpent," Fanxin said.

"No problem," Langyue nodded and said.

Fanxin nodded, and then without further hesitation, he immediately activated the protective barrier. As soon as the barrier opened, seawater rushed in. However, Langyue was not worried at all; it immediately created a giant water wolf to control the seawater.

Fanxin slipped through the gap in the protective shield and went outside.

After Fanxin left, Langyue immediately closed the protective barrier. Then, it sailed away and went somewhere else.

The Fanxin to subdue the sea serpent was futile; the serpent would not yield. A great battle was inevitable, and the region would be thrown into turmoil. Therefore, it had to sail away, or the ship would be doomed.

After Fanxin left, he did not make a move immediately. He waited until Langyue had sailed the boat away before he began to act.
