Chapter 458: The Road to Survival
The ship was breached, and at the same time, Zhan Chen felt a huge vibration coming from the soles of his feet, and his body was involuntarily thrown out and fell into the sea. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although he was still ignorant of what had just happened for a while, the heart that had been hanging before had sunk to the bottom, was he really in a catastrophe?
He was not the only one who fell into the sea, but there were nearly thirty people in the same boat.
Seeing that his plan was successful, Tie Xiong couldn't help but laugh heartily: "Hahaha, human race, none of you can survive!
But at this moment, he noticed that the other sailing ships that were following the ironclad ship began to turn their bows and flee in the opposite direction, so he thought: "This ironclad ship has sunk, and the humans on it will be food for us sooner or later, but if other ships escape, it will not be good." Yes, I don't want to let go of any of the human beings, let them all die, and bury my son!"
Then he suddenly ordered in a loud voice, "Little ones, let's sink the other ships first, and then eat them all at once!"
Because of his decision, Zhan Chen and the others had some time to breathe, and everyone hurriedly took out the empty gourd that had been prepared and hugged it tightly, at least to ensure that they would not be drowned.
Although it was temporarily saved, the ironclad ship quickly sank into the sea, and the people on board had to jump into the sea one by one, and everyone had a look of despair on their faces.
At this time, Liu Qiming and the other five immortals showed their means again, and each used the air technique to levitate on the water.
This kind of immortal technique can make his body levitate above the ground without falling, but it needs immortal yuan to support, obviously Liu Qiming's ability is limited, and the limit of flight altitude is more than ten meters. It can't be like the immortals that Zhan Chen saw in the book, soaring in the sky easily. If you can only do this, it will not be enough to escape the Kraken.
Seeing this, Zhan Chen thought silently: "No, staying here with them is just the word 'death', I have to find another way to survive, the first thing is to avoid the attacks of those demon clans!"
He raised his eyes and looked around, and saw a reef not far away from the water, and his eyes flashed, and he actually put away the gourd, dived into the water, and swam hard in the direction of the reef.
There were only a few people who had the same choice as Zhan Chen, and most of them instinctively stayed around the Dao powerhouses, hoping to get their protection.
Soon Zhan Chen swam around the reef, and was pleasantly surprised to find that there were many gaps in it that could be hidden, just thinking: "In the water, even if I have the cultivation of the Martial Saint Great Perfection, I'm afraid I am not an opponent of a ninth-order demon beast, instead of fighting with them, it is better to borrow this reef to hide first, avoid the edge, and wait until these demon beasts are evacuated, I will find a way to leave!"
So, Zhan Chen surfaced, got behind the reef, and continued to pay attention to the situation on the surface of the sea through the cracks in the rocks.
He didn't wait long, just to see the tragic scene, the more than 20 sailing ships were all destroyed, the warriors on the ship, all fell into the water, although the number of warriors is superior, but in the water ten percent of the strength can not play thirty percent.
And the Kraken was already good at fighting in the water, and his arrogance was even more arrogant, and those warriors were slaughtered by these bloodthirsty creatures.
At this point, Tie Xiong returned with his subordinates and surrounded Liu Qiming and the other five Dao powerhouses again.
A decisive battle soon began at sea, and the battle lasted for three hours until nightfall. In the end, even Liu Qiming and other immortals who entered the Dao were not spared, and the strength of the immortal-level junior demon beasts was beyond the scope of what they could deal with.
Zhan Chen watched silently during the whole process, his emotions had always been very excited, and he wanted to rush out and kill all those demon beasts, but he also knew very well that he was powerless.
At this time, not only can you not rush out recklessly, but you also have to hide yourself deeper, and you can't even breathe a little, because once you are discovered by those demon beasts, then you will definitely die.
After Tie Xiong led the demons to kill all the people, he really walked away satisfied, completely ignoring Zhan Chen's "little shrimp".
It wasn't until they were all far away that Zhan Chen breathed a long sigh of relief that he had finally escaped the fate of the death penalty.
But he immediately realized that although he escaped the death penalty, he was still given a suspended death sentence, and there was a vast sea nearby, and a large number of demon beasts lurked in the vicinity. His hope of survival is still very slim.
"What should I do?" Zhan Chen's heart became more and more anxious.
At this moment, a cry came from afar in the sky, which attracted his attention, and he couldn't help but look up, only to see a huge demon beast passing over his head and throwing it to the southeast.
Seeing this scene, hope rekindled in his heart: "Yes, I can't give up, maybe the Ten Thousand Laws Continent is right in front of me, with my Martial Saint Great Perfection cultivation, maybe I can persevere!"
So, Zhan Chen made a decision in an instant, and he quickly left the reef and swam in the direction where the demon beast flew......
It's one thing to take a boat, but it's another thing to swim by yourself, although Zhan Chen has the cultivation of the Martial Saint Great Perfection, but the speed of traveling in the water is less than one percent of the iron boat, and it consumes a lot of physical strength every day to swim in the water, and sometimes you have to fight with demon beasts, which is really miserable!
But Zhan Chen was still bitter and happy, he regarded life in the water as a kind of cultivation, with this mentality, he approached the goal step by step, and successfully left the Ten Thousand Dangers Reef.
After leaving Wanwei Reef, Zhan Chen's situation was even more difficult. Because he was facing a vast and boundless sea. And this time, there was no bare reef for him to rest on.
Every morning when his physical strength is exhausted, he can only hold the gourd and float on the water to rest. Even so, he still doesn't give up, because he always has the instinct to survive in his mind, whether there is a dream to come true, and there are agreements with relatives and friends, which always support him.
Unfortunately, things are often full of twists and turns. On this day, he was targeted by a powerful demon beast again, it was a ninth-order high-level nine-clawed squid king, its appearance was no different from that of an ordinary octopus, but it had nine tentacles up to five meters long, stretched out, fangs and claws, and was extremely hideous.
The kraken spotted Zhan Chen and immediately pursued him as his own delicacy. Zhan Chen desperately fled, but the enemy still approached step by step.
The squid king chased him unhurriedly, and at the same time held a cat-and-mouse banter attitude, and said with a smile: "Whahahaha, human, you give me a hard struggle, only in this way, I will eat your meat more deliciously!"
Zhan Chen didn't respond to it, but ran away with all his attention, thinking anxiously in his heart: "It's not good, I will probably be planted here today! Ninth Order High-level Demon Beast, if this is on land, even if it is five heads together, it will not be my opponent, but unfortunately it will be ...... in the water."
At this time, the Nine-Clawed Squid King had already pounced on it, and Zhan Chen had to stop, take out the Yin Yang Fish Dragon Sword, and slash at it.
However, the resistance of the water made his sword speed a few points slower, and as soon as the squid king's long beard moved, he flashed his sword qi very calmly.
Then, suddenly, it opened its mouth and spewed out a thick stream of ink, which instantly blackened the seawater. Zhan Chen's vision was also blocked because of this, and he couldn't tell its specific location.
Suddenly, he keenly sensed that there was a crisis attacking below, and subconsciously looked down, only to see a huge tentacle emerging from the black sea, attacking him, and he wanted to dodge to the side.
But his body had no strength in the water, let alone his footwork, and he was half a beat late, and his feet were grabbed by tentacles.
As soon as the tentacles wrapped around Zhan Chen's feet, they pulled him down fiercely, trying to drag Zhan Chen into the deep sea.
How could Zhan Chen let it get his wish, he pulled out his sword and slashed at the tentacles, and cut off the tentacles.
The Nine-Clawed Squid King roared in pain and quickly stepped aside.
Zhan Chen saw that he had finally injured it, and he was not without pride, and yelled at the demon beast: "Beast, how?!"
The Nine-Clawed Squid King shouted angrily, "Human, you still dare to hurt me?"
"Hmph, if you keep pestering, I'll cut off all your tentacles!" Zhan Chen threatened.
When the squid king heard him say this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then laughed wildly: "Hahaha, human, it seems that you don't know my natural powers, so you will be ashamed to say that you want to cut off all my tentacles, and I will let you see it today!"
Then, the squid king shouted, "Regeneration!"
An astonishing scene happened, only to see that the tentacles that had just been cut off by Zhan Chen had regrown at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally recovered to its original state.
"Reborn with a severed limb, how is this possible?!" Zhan Chen exclaimed.
"How is it impossible, our demon clan has a lot of skills! I can't kill it, human, no matter how much you struggle, it's in vain!" said the Nine-Clawed Squid King, and pounced towards Zhan Chen again.
One man and one demon started a big battle again. However, Zhan Chen soon felt that his chest was dull and he had difficulty breathing, and secretly shouted: "No, I have to go to the water to breathe!" So he abandoned the battle and fled, swimming towards the water.
"Boom, human, you're going to flee there. The cunning squid king relied on his speed advantage in the water and quickly ran in front of Zhan Chen.
"Get out of here!" Zhan Chen was furious, and another sword slashed out, driving the squid king away, and finally surfaced to the water, and took a few big breaths of fresh air.
At this time, the squid king's attack came again, and Zhan Chen had to be tired of fighting...... As the minutes passed, he also felt that his strength was constantly passing, but the damn demon beast seemed to be still a hundred times more energetic.
Zhan Chen gradually felt that he couldn't support it anymore, and a trace of unwillingness appeared in his eyes, thinking: "Obviously there is only one step left, and the Ten Thousand Laws Continent is right in front of me, is it really the heavens that are going to kill me?"
Just when he was about to completely despair, he vaguely heard a clear crane cry from high in the sky.
