a certain place in the deep sea
The Long March was sailing normally, circling a certain sea area at a slight angle, when suddenly a giant Soul Beast more than two hundred meters long burst out of the sea and struck the edge of the deck.
Deep Sea Demonic Whale King!
"They're here, let's get started!"
This huge creature deliberately attacked when Lin Chen and the others weren't paying attention during their conversation, which was extremely insidious. However, Lin Chen and the women, including Zi JI, reacted quickly.
" Heavenly Dragon Demon Dance!"
" Fire-Bathing Phoenix!"
" Ten Thousand Swords Pay Homage!"
" Eternal Wound!"
Zi JI instantly transformed into her true form, her enormous body constantly tumbling, creating a powerful attraction. On the other side, Huo Feng also unleashed its Eighth Soul Skill, launching a fierce attack.
Boom boom boom...
Unexpectedly, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King forcibly broke free from Zi JI's control. Its powerful Soul Power and defensive scales directly shattered the Huo Feng's attack, rendering the two women's attacks ineffective.
Ding ding ding...
Lin Chen's sword rain fell on its scales, scraping out long marks a foot long, but it did not completely break through the opponent's defense.
Bang!
Just then, Bibi Dong's single-target damage Soul Skill, Eternal Wound, pierced through its defenses, and a spurt of blood gushed out.
"Squeak..."
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King cried out in pain and dived back into the sea, quickly descending to a certain distance and following the giant ship.
The first round was merely a test of each other's strength, resulting in damage on both sides. Lin Chen's Long March suffered severe deck damage and a slight list, while the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King sustained only minor external injuries, and that was all...
Huo Feng frowned. "Husband, this big guy's defense is too strong. My attacks and Sister Zi JI's attacks are hardly effective."
Bibi Dong said seriously, "Its Soul Power is extremely strong, far surpassing that of my husband and me, and it's stockpiled around its defensive scales. It can be said to be a double defense of physical and Soul Power, so it's normal that you can't penetrate it."
Lin Chen nodded. "Just now I was just testing it to see if group attack Soul Skill would work. The result was obvious; it could easily resist even my attacks. To really hurt it, I have to use single-target attacks."
In that round, he and Bibi Dong used a group attack and a single-target attack respectively, just to test the limits of their opponent's defense. It can be said that they cooperated very well.
Bibi Dong analyzed, "We've gathered information about it, and it must also know our initial information. The next probing attack is probably coming soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, a strange movement came from ahead. Lin Chen led the women and quickly took to the air. A huge vortex was forming, and its diameter was gradually increasing!
One hundred zhang, one hundred and fifty zhang, two hundred zhang...
Soon, the diameter of the vortex exceeded the length of the giant ship, not to mention its width; the powerful gravitational pull directly sucked in nearly half of the ship.
Huo Feng cried out, "Oh no! It's going to destroy our ship!"
Lin Chen frowned and ordered, " Zi JI, row the boat."
"Yes!"
Zi JI instantly submerged, her massive body swimming directly beneath the giant ship, intending to forcefully pull the ship out of the whirlpool.
Thump... Splash...
Zi JI's body was nearly two hundred centimeters long, about half the length of the giant wheel. With her enormous body and powerful Soul Power, it would be quite easy for her to support a giant wheel.
However, this is based on the premise that it is not affected by external forces.
About a mile deep in the ocean, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King spotted Zi JI as she went into the sea. It opened its enormous mouth and lunged to tear Zi JI apart.
The short distance of one mile was covered in the blink of an eye!
Bang!
"Ouch, ouch, ouch..." Zi JI cried out in pain as several of her scales were torn apart by the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, leaving four wounds.
"He's up here again!"
Lin Chen shouted in a low voice, " Dong'er, act quickly and protect Zi JI!"
" Heaven Splitting!"
A giant golden sword cleaved through the sea surface and plunged into the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King beneath Zi JI.
Pfft!
"Squeak..." The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King screamed in agony, finally releasing Zi JI's body. Its massive body struggled violently, quickly withstanding Lin Chen's attack, but a sword wound more than ten meters long appeared on its body.
The bright red blood instantly stained the nearby sea.
Just as the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was trying to escape, Bibi Dong's attack landed on it. It was her Second Martial Soul form, the Soul Devouring Spider Emperor!
" Ninth Soul Skill, Abyssal Sundering Slash!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a pitch-black rift over three hundred meters long swept rapidly toward the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. With her Peerless Douluo- level Soul Power and red Soul Ring, Bibi Dong's attack would instantly tear apart even Zi JI's defense.
"Squeak..." A look of terror appeared in the eyes of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, and it quickly dived into the deep sea. It was very fast, and it had dived several miles in the blink of an eye, but Bibi Dong's attack was even faster.
Boom boom boom... Sizzle...
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King let out a miserable cry. Although the wound was not as deep as the sword wound caused by Lin Chen, it was very long. A crack more than a hundred meters long appeared on its body, and blood gushed out freely.
On the giant ship
Four bloody holes appeared on the lower abdomen of Zi JI, who had transformed into human form. It looked terrifying, and there was still cold Soul Power remaining inside, making it difficult to stop the injuries.
Lin Chen stretched out his large hand and placed it on her lower abdomen. A surge of scorching Soul Power quickly refined the cold Soul Power within her body, and then the wound showed signs of scabbing over.
"Okay, it's alright now."
Zi JI's alluring face paled slightly, and her golden pupils still held a hint of fear. If Lin Chen and Bibi Dong had arrived any later, she would have suffered far more than just minor injuries. Her attention had been focused on the ship, so she hadn't paid attention to guarding against the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King below.
Bibi Dong frowned slightly. " The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King is also injured, but not fatally. If it stays hidden and doesn't come out, it will be difficult for us to make a move."
Lin Chen frowned slightly and said calmly, "We can't waste any more time. I'll go down into the deep sea to hunt it myself."
Bibi Dong's pretty face changed slightly, and she quickly advised, "No, it's too dangerous. Although it's injured, it's not fatal. Besides, its strength increases exponentially in the deep sea. With that, it will be very difficult for you to hunt it in the deep sea."
Lin Chen smiled faintly, "Even if it doesn't work out, I can still retreat smoothly, so you don't need to worry."
Bibi Dong shouted, "What if you don't come back?"
Lin Chen was slightly taken aback, then remained silent.
Bibi Dong was somewhat agitated. "You can't just think about my divine exam, you have to consider others too. What use is this cultivation to me if something happens to you? What will happen to the other sisters who are waiting for you?"
"My husband, I rarely disagree with your decisions, but this time, absolutely not!"
Lin Chen Xin stirred, and he advised, " Dong'er, you must trust me. After these few tests, I am quite confident."
Bibi Dong clung to his arm, almost pleading, "Husband, please don't go. Let's wait a few more days. Please Dong'er 'm begging you~"
Huo Feng, standing nearby, also felt a slight sting in her nose and softly advised, "Husband, Dong'er is right. We are at a great disadvantage in the deep sea. Let's wait for it on the giant ship."
