"Roar—!"
The Sea-Burning Giant Whale let out a muffled, thunderous roar. Its enormous tail fin slammed violently against the sea, instantly raising gigantic waves dozens of zhang high. At the same time, it opened its colossal maw again. This time, it did not unleash a single pillar of flame, but countless dark-red fireballs that swept down upon Chen Qing and Xu Min like a rain of meteor fire, blotting out the sky!
Every fireball contained terrifying heat and corrosive fire poison, nearly sealing off every possible avenue of escape for the two of them.
"Scatter!"
Xu Min gave a soft shout. Her movement technique unfolded, and like a startled swan skimming through shadows, she darted through the gaps in the dense rain of fire. Her longsword left its sheath once more, sword light flickering in countless points as she precisely detonated the fireballs she could not evade in midair. Sword Intent collided with scorching fireballs.
Ice and fire intertwined, while mist billowed upward.
Chen Qing also unleashed his movement technique, his figure flashing and twisting above the sea like a swimming dragon.
The Mysterious Dragon Spear spun like a wheel, its black-green spear light forming a barrier that either deflected or sent the incoming fireballs flying.
Yet there were simply too many fireballs, and they were too powerful. The occasional stray one struck his protective True Essence, still jolting his Qi and Blood into turmoil. The fire poison carried by them was even more stubborn, forcing him to divide his attention and circulate his True Essence to expel it.
This Sea-Burning Giant Whale not only possessed astonishing defenses, but its attacks covered a vast area and carried tremendous power. Moreover, it was in the open sea, holding every advantage of terrain. It was truly difficult to deal with.
