Chapter 887: Encounter (1)
The canoe hovered in the air for a few moments before falling back to the surface.
Li Chen used spiritual power to prop up a huge shield under the canoe, although the sea water of the Devil's Abyss has a spiritual power immunity effect, but Li Chen has used spiritual power to condense into a substance, and the shield formed under the canoe can still have a good buffering effect.
The shield made a huge splash on the surface of the water, but fortunately, there was no wind on the sea now, and the waves were relatively small, so Li Chen could see what was under the surface of the water with the naked eye.
However, this sea monster that sneaked up on him was very cunning, after failing to knock Li Chen's boat apart with one blow, it dived directly into the depths of the sea, Li Chen only saw its long tail flashing when it dived to the bottom of the sea, but he couldn't see the true face of this sea monster at all.
With the appearance of this kind of sea monster that could evade the detection of divine sense, Li Chen did not dare to stay in this sea area for long. He decisively increased the speed of his paddle, paddling towards the sacred mountain in the sea at the maximum speed he could now achieve.
Li Chen didn't know what level Fang Cai's sea monster was, but even if it was such a huge sea monster, if it was only an innate realm, he wouldn't dare to provoke it at all.
First, because the sea monster is fighting at home, once he falls into the water, he will inevitably fall into an absolute disadvantage.
Moreover, he was not sure about the rate of consumption of spiritual power in the seawater, and once the current balance of payments was broken, his situation would be even more dangerous.
As for exploring the specific traces of the sea monster, Li Chen didn't plan to do it. Although he has aura detection and can detect things more clearly and accurately, stopping the operation of the exercises on this sea and entering a state of complete closure of the five senses is no different from looking for death.
So now Li Chen could only try his best to escape, the sooner he could reach that holy mountain, the sooner he could enter the safe range.
Li Chen advanced extremely fast, and the white marks drawn by the canoe on the sea were even as straight as if they had been cut out by a sword.
However, no matter how fast Li Chen was, he could clearly feel that there was a behemoth quietly following him at the bottom of the sea not far below him, and the speed of the behemoth was not much different from Li Chen's speed.
Of course, Li Chen knew that thing was the sea monster, although he couldn't directly observe the sea monster with his divine sense, but he could use his divine sense to sense the changes in the water flow where the sea monster swam.
From time to time, the sea monster wanted to float up to attack Li Chen's canoe, but every time this time, Li Chen would use his spiritual power to strengthen the canoe's defenses, and then the sea monster would lie dormant again like a cunning hunter.
The contest between the hunter and the prey is often a contest of patience. This sea monster is definitely one of the more qualified hunters in this devil's abyss.
That sea monster is patient, and Li Chen is naturally not weak with it. Li Chen has always ensured that his spiritual power consumption is in a state where he cannot consume more than one percent at most.
He hadn't even thought about driving the krakin away, or finding a way to kill it.
Although there was a white filament of light in his soul, he didn't want to expose his secrets to the god-level people of the Relict Assembly because of this mere sea monster.
Even cultivators in a remote place like Mars could recognize that the white filament was not an ordinary thing, so it was impossible for the god-level figures of this relict clan assembly not to see that the white filament was not simple.
After all, this is a "living" existence laid out by god-level figures, and Li Chen doesn't want to let himself become a guinea pig in this god continent for people to slice and study.
Perhaps it was because of this sea monster that Li Chen found that there were no other sea monsters along the way to stop his movements, or maybe he had already been marked as prey by this sea monster, so the other sea creatures did not make a move on Li Chen.
Along the way, Li Chen also found a lot of fish living in this devil's abyss, some of those fish had spiritual cultivation, and some were ordinary fish.
Even when those fish encounters, the sea monster doesn't seem to be interested in hunting fish. As it passed between the schools, the weaker fish didn't even notice that a single Abyssal Troll could swallow their entire colony had spared them.
"What a brute, this is eyeing me! But why did it give up attacking as soon as it saw me using my psychic shield? Li Chen has never understood the actions of this deep-sea monster, and if it were a normal hunter, he would usually choose to kill with one blow instead of testing the prey back and forth.
This will not only alert the prey, but will also drain the hunter's own mental and stamina.
"Maybe it's trying to drain my spiritual power?" Li Chen guessed that because his spiritual power absorption speed was different from that of ordinary people, if it was an ordinary innate realm, it was estimated that he would only be able to maintain normal consumption when he acted on this misty sea, and in the face of this sudden situation, it was very likely that he would soon run out of spiritual power.
In this kind of speculation, Li Chen could be sure that this sea monster would most likely take the initiative to attack when its patience ran out, and the attack at that time should be the real strongest attack of this sea monster.
As Li Chen went deeper and deeper into the devil's abyss, perhaps because of time, the originally calm sea gradually swept by big waves. The average wave head can be more than two meters high.
In this case, the interference with the detection of divine consciousness was also the most obvious, and all kinds of bubbles were mixed in the chaotic seawater, and small fish were scurrying, making it even more difficult for Li Chen to catch the traces of the sea monster.
However, when he entered the stage of the waves, Li Chen's divine sense found the second person driving the small wooden boat in a misty white mist.
That person was Hung Ling.
The wooden boat that Hongling erected at this time was a blade-shaped wooden boat, and the hull should be made of the same material as the canoe used by Li Chen.
At the end of his wooden boat was another sampan-like oar, and he was using his spiritual power to control the oars to swing rapidly, and then propel the wooden boat forward.
The speed of his wooden boat was not much compared to Li Chen.
When Li Chen found him, he hadn't found any trace of Li Chen. Behind his boat was a whale with a huge one-horned horn.
The whale would burst out of the water and slam into the bottom of the small wooden boat.
This whale did not evade the detection of the divine sense like the sea monster behind Li Chen. It should be what it looks like in the late innate realm.
However, as mentioned before, the giant beasts in the sea are different from the monsters on the land.
Even the demon clan powers of the demon clan continent are unwilling to be classified with the sea giants.
Because the giant beasts of the same realm in the sea are the strongest compared to any race, their spiritual power stock and physical strength.
Therefore, it is also said that Kunpeng feeds on dragons, and this theory was transmitted to the earth from the Divine Continent.
