Chapter 331 - 198: Fist-fight with a Sea Lion, Fierce Battle with a Deep Sea Giant Shark_2
His current cultivation had advanced to the peak of Origin Fluid Realm, not only had his Yuan Hai surged to eighty feet, but his body had also become stronger. It was only natural to use Red Sun Breaks the Sky to kill a Sixth Rank mid-stage sea beast.
Zuo Qiuye’s eyes shifted as he looked down at the battle below and said, “The Deep Sea Giant Shark is powerful, and our losses would be significant if it breaks through its current realm. Lu Yun, how about we join forces and take it down?”
Lu Yun nodded and smiled, “That’s what I had in mind.”
The Deep Sea Giant Shark was already at the limit of the Sixth Rank, and having devoured the body of a Rune Seed Realm expert, its strength had increased dramatically, bringing it only a step away from the Seventh Rank breakthrough.
Although Lei Canghe, Tan Chen, and Shang Cang were strong, they could barely suppress the Deep Sea Giant Shark at the moment.
However, as time went on, the Deep Sea Giant Shark’s strength gradually increased, showing signs of being on par with Lei Canghe, Tan Chen, and Shang Cang.
Its aura even continued to rise, hinting at the possibility of a breakthrough.
As Zuo Qiuye had said, if it managed to successfully advance, it would reach the Seventh Rank.
At that time, the cost of killing it would be too high for them to bear.
“Today, I will break through, and even if you bring more people, it will be useless. Once I reach the Seventh Rank, all of you will become my food!”
The Deep Sea Giant Shark roared, with its massive body squashing the mountains below.
Fortunately, this was not the deep sea, as even without the Seventh Rank breakthrough, Lei Canghe, Tan Chen, and Shang Cang would still be hard- pressed to suppress it.
“Buzz!”
Without speaking, Lei Canghe’s Yuan Hai roiled, his Gold Body surged, suppressing the Deep Sea Giant Shark. He raised his hand and interwoven thunder and lightning struck the shark. Soon after, the thunderous noises crackled, leaving its body charred and scales flared.
A huge palm fell from Tan Chen, with dazzling patterns and colorful lights on it, filled with a vast flame. This flame was even more powerful than Lu Yun’s Fourth Rank White Lotus Flame.
Shang Cang pulled his bow to its maximum tension and a myriad of golden light points gathered from the depths of the sky, forging an incredibly powerful golden arrow. With a whoosh, the arrow pierced through everything, targeting the eye of the Deep Sea Giant Shark.
The combined attacks of the three Golden Body Realm peak experts, Lei Canghe, Tan Chen, and Shang Cang, thundered through the sky, shaking the clouds and crushing several low, nearby mountains.
Boom—
Thunderbolts ran rampant, golden light filled the sky, and flames spread all over. Under these terrifying attacks, the massive body of the Deep Sea Giant Shark surfaced once more.
Its jet-black body looked like a massive black hole amidst the vast lights, appearing extremely deep and horrifying. Its solitary eye coldly staring at Lei Canghe and the others in the sky.
The numerous tiny, unseen special scales on its body flickered with cold light, absorbing the residual thunderbolt energy.
Lei Canghe, Tan Chen, and Shang Cang all had sinking hearts. Although they had high expectations of the Deep Sea Giant Shark, its physical power still exceeded their calculations.
Their intense attacks didn’t have much of an effect and even seemed to have helped the shark absorb energy faster.
“If you insist on this, don’t leave, stay here. Once I devour one of you, I might be able to greatly shorten the time it takes for me to advance,” roared the Deep Sea Giant Shark.
Lei Canghe snorted coldly, “I would like to see, is it you who devours us, or us who eradicates you.”
Hearing this, the Deep Sea Giant Shark laughed. Its laughter was extremely hoarse and unpleasant.
“Eradicating me? You’ve already missed the best opportunity. Now that I’ve already consumed more than half of that Human Race Rune Seed Realm expert’s body, my physique has reached its limit. Your attacks can’t even break my flesh.
Once I devour one of you, my bloodline will mutate and I will successfully advance to the Seventh Rank. At that time, none of you will be able to escape.”
As it spoke, the Deep Sea Giant Shark’s massive body suddenly churned, the giant tail swinging toward Lei Canghe, who was in the sky.
At the same time, a beam of deep black light shot out in an arc toward Shang Cang and Tan Chen.
The enormous electricity caused the air to rip apart, as the bright light scattered and formed a dense black net.
This time, the Deep Sea Giant Shark launched an attack for the first time.
Before this, it had either dodged or defended. Now that its offense and defense had reversed, it was clear that its previous words were true — its physical power had reached its current limit.
Without thinking much, Lei Canghe stretched out his hand and grasped a huge Sumeru Hammer that appeared out of thin air. On it flickered golden thunder, with vast runes emerging and spreading over the Sumeru Hammer.
Though it was impossible to manifest runes without Rune Seeds, Lei Canghe could still unleash their power via weapons.
He infused the Sumeru Hammer with seventy-two Law Runes, causing the hammer’s black body to change and its golden thunderbolts to become even more immense.
“Great Sumeru Thunder Hammer!”
Lei Canghe held the end of the hammer handle with both hands and swung it around a large circle in the sky, forming a sea of golden thunderbolts before colliding it with the Deep Sea Giant Shark’s attack.
The energy from the shark’s tail and Lei Canghe’s thunderous sea violently collided, causing the light in the sky to bend, as if being absorbed by some terrifying force.
