The battle between the two sea monsters is stunning.

After being slammed into the sea, the giant Longbo roared violently, and the Shattering the Void Qi and Blood around him roared once more. Dark red flames erupted from his body like a volcanic eruption, burning the surrounding seawater into a surging mist.

He grabbed the head of the corpse whale with both hands, his huge, millstone-like hands digging into the whale's grayish-white, rotting flesh. With a forceful rip, he tore the whale off its shoulders and slammed it violently into the sea.

Boom!!!

The massive body of the corpse whale crashed onto the sea, sending waves surging outwards like a tsunami. Yet, the next moment, the corpse whale floated up as if unharmed, its ghostly arms, like countless tentacles, coiling around Zhao Longbo. These ghostly arms, carrying a chilling Ghost Qi, clung to Zhao Longbo's body like countless giant pythons, attempting to drag him back into the Ghost Haunt.

Zhao Longbo's Qi and Blood, Shattering the Void, struck the barrier formed by the Ghost Haunt, but it did not severely injure Whale Marquis as it had last time.

Without the martial arts intent to Shattering the Void, no matter how strong Qi and Blood are, it is still a physical form of damage.

Both Hu Mang and Chen Xiaosan watched this scene in shock, as it was rare to see a monster fighting another monster up close like this.

After a long pause, Chen Xiaosan suddenly said:

He tried to run away.

Although the two monsters in front of him were locked in combat, Zhao Longbo was consciously leading the corpse whale southwest.

Under the "Unity of Heaven and Man and man" with the consciousness of the Dragon Vein, Hu Mang seemed to be able to see a part of the future. For example, in one scene of the "future", after smashing the corpse whale into the sea again, Zhao Longbo actually took out three more Sea-Calming Divine Pearl and gave one to each of the Faceless Sea Lord, Whale Marquis, and the Withered Tide Snail Mother that surfaced. Then, by using a method similar to "Nascent Soul Rainbow Transformation", he burned his Qi and Blood and Shattering the Void to escape.

This time, the Shattering the Void was no longer just an artistic concept. Driven by the opponent's abnormal bloodline, this Shattering the Void seemed to actually crack the surrounding void, even breaking open a corner of the Corpse Whale's Ghost Haunt.

Seeing this, Hu Mang couldn't help but think to himself.

"Isn't this bloodline a bit too abnormal? Even the thousand-year-old demon snake of the Azure Mysterious Realm doesn't seem to be this abnormal. Could it be that Earth Star isn't a fragment of the Upper Realm, but rather the Saha Continent is?"

If it's from the upper realm, then that's a different story.

After all, the concentration of Qi and Blood in the Human Immortal Lightning Puppet Hu Mang had seen before didn't seem to be this exaggerated, even though it was just a wooden puppet mechanism.

Hu Mang's mind raced.

"Unfortunately, my cultivation level is insufficient, or more accurately, my Dao cultivation is insufficient. I only evolved two of the Five Qi. Otherwise, I would not only be able to deduce the future, but also how to restrain the opponent."

The most abnormal aspect of the Azure Mysterious Realm version of the Unity of Heaven and Man and Man is that once one merges with the sect's grand formation, not only can Law Power increase dozens of times, but one's own realm can also advance by leaps and bounds by taking advantage of the power of merging with the spiritual mountains and rivers of heaven and earth. According to what Hu Mang saw in the Scripture Pavilion, if a cultivator who has reached the Three Flowers and Five Qi Great Perfection can merge with the grand formation of a major innate sect, he may even possess the ability to rival the Yang Spirit.

The Dragon Vein consciousness can be seen as a "human evolution" of "Unity of Heaven and Man," but Hu Mang made an embarrassing discovery: as part of the evolution of the Heavenly Dao, his cultivation was really not high.

We can "see" the future, but we cannot predict it.

However, the state of "Unity of Heaven and Man" still gave the Hu Mang a little inspiration.

He looked in a direction to the south. In this state, he could sense a cyber female cultivator, similar to Jiang Kuisha but with an aura at least ten times stronger than Jiang Kuisha, lingering in that direction.

In other words, even if he takes advantage of the opportunity when the three sea monsters won't attack the Ghost Dragon Vein to break into the battlefield, there's still a high chance that someone else will steal his thunder.

After all, when it comes to manipulating Dragon Vein, his ancient method of raising dragons is nothing compared to those cyber dragon-raising methods.

As Hu Mang was pondering a solution, he suddenly felt a sense of alarm. This alarm did not come from physical instinct, but from fragments of future visions brought about by the "Unity of Heaven and Man".

In that scene, a red dot suddenly appeared between his eyebrows, as if he had been dotted with cinnabar, and then his entire head exploded instantly.

"Are you kidding? This is a manifestation of my consciousness!"

The ghostly flames in his eyes suddenly flickered, and the Hu Mang instinctively tilted its head. The next moment, half of the Sea Yaksha mask exploded, scattering fragments everywhere. The right half of the mask, along with the ghost's right shoulder, disappeared, as if forcibly erased by some invisible force. The ghost also flickered violently for a moment, like a candle flame swaying in the wind, sometimes bright and sometimes dim. Its connection with the Dragon Vein's consciousness plummeted to a low point in an instant.

"Holy crap, what's going on with you, Devil Dragon Bro!?"

In the blink of an eye, half of the older brother's face next to Chen Xiaosan exploded in anger.

Could it be that someone used Mysterious Transformation to assassinate this guy?

But the Mysterious Transformation shouldn't have caused such great damage.

Hu Mang did not answer, but instead looked coldly at the giant Longbo in the center of the battlefield. Sure enough, Zhao Longbo put away the fishing rod, looking somewhat disappointed.

At the Palembang dock, Hu Mang, who had just rescued Wei Kaishan, touched his cheek, where a long, bloody gash stretched all the way to his ear.

Damn it, what kind of bizarre attack is this? It can even hit the main body!

As expected of the overlords of Nanyang, the Nascent Soul level experts of the Wanshun Sea Hall are all incredibly powerful.

Without a top-tier Heavenly Devil Field, the Buddha Woman is practically immortal.

Add to that a freak who possesses the ability to Shattering the Void's Qi and Blood and High Antiquity bloodline, a fishing rod that resembles Immortal Weapon, and this bizarre attack.

If he hadn't achieved Unity of Heaven and Man with the Dragon Vein, Hu Mang would have truly capsized this time.

Damn it!

"Chen Xiaosan, do you want revenge?"

Hu Mang gave the other party a cold look, and suddenly said.

"How do we get revenge?" Chen Xiaosan asked immediately, his spirits lifting.

The Hu Mang quietly handed him something, then used its Divine Sense to transmit its message.

Chen Xiaosan nodded with a sly look on his face, and then his figure vanished again, turning into Ghost Qi.

Seeing that his trump card had failed, Zhao Longbo finally gave up and pulled out another object from his waist—a tortoise shell.

The tortoise shell was grayish-brown all over, with fine cracks and ancient patterns covering its surface, like a fossil eroded by time for countless years, gleaming with a somber luster.

According to the memories of his own Longbo Bloodline, it was the shell of Mountain-Bearing Giant Ao. Legend has it that the giant turtle that carried mountains on its back had an indestructible shell that could not be shaken even by the collapse of the sky and the cracking of the earth.

"Damn it, I really don't want to wear this thing! That fatso always says I look like a green-shelled turtle when I wear this!" Zhao Longbo cursed, slapping the "turtle shell" onto his body. The shell grew in the wind, expanding, extending, and covering rapidly like a living thing, transforming into a giant Longbo Giant Body.

The corpse whale crashed into it, but couldn't even break through its defenses.

Sitting on the back of the corpse whale, Whale Marquis's expression changed slightly. His gaze fell on the giant tortoise shell armor. He could feel the ancient power contained within the armor, as steady and heavy as a sleeping mountain.

Zhao Longbo reeled in his fishing rod and charged outwards, braving the attack of the corpse whale. His feet landed on the sea surface, and even the large and small whirlpools formed on the surface of the sea could not disturb him.

The black tortoise serves as a shield, and all evil spirits retreat!

If Zhao Longbo had taken out that thing earlier, he wouldn't have been so badly injured.

However, the shell of the giant turtle weighs as much as five mountains, and even he could not wear it for a long time.

"Why isn't this masked guy reacting at all?"

Zhao Longbo sensed something was wrong. Could it be that the other party was also in a hurry to run away?

However, when he looked at the other person, he found that the other person remained stationary and did not move, and the mask gradually recovered under the influence of the Ghost Qi.

"Regardless, it's safer to first knock this corpse whale to the bottom of the sea, and then use the three Sea-Calming Divine Pearl to suppress it."

Three more precious pearls appeared in Zhao Longbo's palm.

Before he could even do anything, the tickling sensation on the soles of his feet made him instinctively look down.

Waves began to ripple on the water's surface without anyone noticing.

Wave?

With the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl suppressing the waves, how could there be any?

Oh no, it's Seaquake! Seaquake that can drain all Spiritual Qi!

Zhao Longbo's face turned pale instantly.

The ripples suddenly intensified, as if stirred by an invisible hand, and the seawater began to spin, surge, and sink wildly, forming a huge concave surface, as if the entire sea area was falling towards that center.

The Seaquake was like an invisible black hole, frantically devouring all the Spiritual Qi around it.

The Law Power within Zhao Longbo's body, Golden Core Great Perfection, was completely devoured in just a few breaths.

To Longbo Giant Body, besides needing the bloodline of this High Antiquity giant, one also needs one's own Law Power. Once the Law Power is drained, the transformation naturally cannot be maintained.

The negative effects of losing Law Power didn't stop there. As the transformation was canceled, the boiling Qi and Blood of Longbo began to backfire on his body. The body shell of Longbo, which was previously unbreakable, began to crack with cracks that only appeared in his "giant body" state. Backfired by the Qi and Blood that shattered the Shattering the Void, the Three Dantian in Zhao Longbo's body exploded one after another, his eyes bulged out, and then his eyeballs also exploded.

Chen Xiaosan, who witnessed this scene underwater, couldn't help but exclaim "Holy crap!" as he looked at the grayish-white stone he had lit in his hand.

Is this thing really that powerful?

As one of the dragon Dragon Vein treasures spewed out by the Dragon Blood Tide, ambergris has a very special effect: when it is lit, it will cause Seaquake.

On the Seaquake, the Spiritual Qi will be completely swallowed up by the sea in a short period of time.

The prepared Hu Mang suddenly sprang into action, transforming into multiple overlapping figures under the influence of the Heavenly Devil Field. It grabbed a tortoise shell and a fishing rod, simultaneously blocking another streak of light that had entered the battlefield.

I've spent so much time setting things up, and I'm finally about to open the treasure chest. And you want to snatch it from my jaws?

Forget about meat, they won't even leave you any broth!!
