King of Creation-Chapter 719 - 710: Sudden Change in the Lake
Chapter 719: Chapter 710: Sudden Change in the Lake
"Look, quickly, it’s the Spirit Boat!"
"Young Hero Ye’s Cloud Winged Tiger King really brought the Spirit Boat over!"
"We did it, Master, we did it!"
When the massive Spirit Boat appeared in everyone’s view, those who had been staring intensely at the lake cheered, with the Beast Taming Sect’s senior disciple Ma Yue cheering joyfully like a child.
The moment the Spirit Boat came into view, Ye Zhen felt a sense of exhaustion.
It took over an hour for the Cloud Winged Tiger King to reach the opposite shore. It took two hours for him to return with the Spirit Boat. During these three hours, Ye Zhen was extremely tense and focused, his back already soaked with sweat.
Normally, for someone in the Vein Forging Realm, being soaked with sweat would be almost impossible.
Roar!
The moment the Spirit Boat touched the shore, the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten let out a tremendously excited roar, leaping towards Ye Zhen.
Just as everyone thought the massive body of the Cloud Winged Tiger King would knock Ye Zhen down, the kitten quickly shrunk in size from over a hundred meters to the size of a palm, pouncing into Ye Zhen’s arms like a pet, completely lacking the dominance of a Tiger King.
Ye Zhen gently stroked the kitten, comforting the overly excited kitten, listening to its joy after completing the challenge.
"I’ve dealt with demon beasts for half my life, and such a Spirit Communication-capable beast as the Cloud Winged Tiger King is truly one of a kind. Other Spirit-natured beasts are probably less than a tenth as capable!"
While praising, Yang Yiguan’s loving gaze seemed as if he wanted to snatch the Cloud Winged Tiger King for himself.
"Now that the Spirit Boat is here, let’s not delay any further and quickly pass through Ten Thousand Spirit Lake!" suggested Lan Shuiqiao, the Hundred Poisons Master.
"Good!"
Yang Yiguan nodded and said, "Let’s embark while it’s still early and reach the opposite shore sooner. Let’s get on board then!"
Ye Zhen, holding the kitten, was the first to leap onto the Spirit Boat. A pile of dry bones at the bow caught his attention, especially the neck bone, which was tied with an extremely heavy chain.
"This might be a demon servant that the Beast Taming Sect had chained here to control the Spirit Boat. No one has tended to it for nearly a hundred years; it likely starved to death." Seeing Ye Zhen staring, Yang Yiguan explained.
Soon, everyone boarded the Spirit Boat in succession, even Divine Calculator Bian You, whose legs had gone completely limp, was carried onto the Spirit Boat by Shadow Blade Shao Mo.
After a night of treatment, the wounds on Bian You’s body had mostly healed, yet his Spiritual Power still could not circulate freely, and many of his pierced organs were still recovering.
"Allow me to steer!" Yang Yiguan released a ripple of Spiritual Power under his feet, and as soon as the Spirit Boat reached the shore, it shot out like an arrow from a bow, creating ripples.
The pressure from this Tiger Shark King of the Overturning Sea-made Spirit Boat was indeed terrifying. From afar, when still over ten miles away, various large demon beasts in the distant waters scattered like frightened rabbits, clearing the path directly traveled by the spirituality.
The Spirit-natured yet immobile water plants became rigid in an instant, crushed mercilessly by the advancing Spirit Boat.
Ye Zhen estimated that the imposing aura of the Sea Beast Spirit Vessel spanned about ten miles. No matter its location, there would be no demon beasts within a ten-mile radius around the Spirit Boat.
Watching everyone observe the scenery from the side of the boat, Ye Zhen suddenly frowned, "Everyone, don’t get too close to the edge of the boat. With billions of water creatures in Ten Thousand Spirit Lake, it’s not impossible for one or two daring beings to emerge unafraid of the Sea Beast Spirit Vessel’s power!" freēnovelkiss.com
An image of the enormous splashes in the bizarre water area appeared in Ye Zhen’s mind from what he had seen through the kitten’s eyes.
"With not a single trace of a demon beast in a ten-mile radius, isn’t Young Hero Ye being overly cautious?" laughed Shadow Blade Shao Mo.
Ye Zhen said nothing more, only gently tugged on Feng Qingyue, pulling her away from the boat’s edge into the center of the boat.
Seeing this, Lan Shuiqiao and Hu Qingtong, who were viewing the scenery of Ten Thousand Spirit Lake, exchanged glances and silently moved back as well.
Just as Shadow Blade Shao Mo was about to step back, the Divine Calculator Bian You on his back sneered, "Scared like a mouse!"
"There’s no need to back away. Not only does this Spirit Boat bear the pressure of Fug Hai Tiger Shark King, but it also has a huge formation meant to amplify the threat of the demon beasts. In such a situation, even with billions of water creatures, no demon beast would dare encroach upon us!" Bian You declared.
Ye Zhen coldly stared at Bian You, then turned his head to carefully watch the distant waters.
Ye Zhen didn’t want to waste words with a man close to death.
Because Ye Zhen had already decided that no matter the outcome of exploring Ten Thousand Beast Valley, before leaving, he would definitely kill Bian You.
Even a disabled enemy is still an enemy!
Ye Zhen would never allow an enemy who was intent on killing him to survive.
"Don’t be nervous. The kitten has already made the trip back and forth. After we get out, how about I join you for a drink?" Feng Qingyue gently hooked Ye Zhen’s palm with her pinky, seeing how tense he was and actively trying to soothe him.
A mischievous smile suddenly spread across Ye Zhen’s face, "Just having a drink?"
Feng Qingyue’s cheeks flushed a bright red, "Besides drinking, what else do you want to do?"
"What do you think?"
"Always thinking about naughty things!"
"Naughty things? How do you know I’m thinking about naughty things?" Ye Zhen chuckled mischievously.
Feng Qingyue pinched Ye Zhen’s palm fiercely with her fingertips, causing his mind to sway. What could happen after they got out? Could there be a chance?
Although the two communicated through Divine Sense, their intimate gestures were observed by everyone, and Yang Yiguan, who was steering the boat, just chuckled at the scene.
This spectacle once again made the Divine Calculator Bian You criticize, "Hmm, shameless...."
Boom!
Just at that moment, a thunderous sound of water striking from below resonated.
In an instant, the thousand-meter-long huge Spirit Boat began to sway violently as if it were about to tip over!
"Be careful!"
"What’s wrong?"
"There’s something under the boat? How is that possible?"
"What happened?" Gasps suddenly erupted.
That vast expanse of water that Ye Zhen had seen before flashed through his mind again, "Don’t panic, use your spiritual power to stabilize the spirit boat, we absolutely cannot let the spirit boat capsize!" Ye Zhen cried out.
As he yelled, the spiritual power around Ye Zhen’s body instantly streamed towards his feet, his figure suddenly sank, and Feng Qingyue beside Ye Zhen did the same, with the force of the spiritual power sinking, not less than tens of thousands of pounds!
Bang!
The boat that had just been lifted abruptly sank down and heavily slapped onto the water surface, seeing this, the others followed suit, and the previously swaying boat immediately stabilized again.
Bian You’s face turned pale, and he immediately questioned Yang Yiguan, "What’s going on?"
"Yang, what is really going on? Didn’t you say this spirit boat is incredibly safe? What is it under the boat?"
Bian You was still severely injured, if something truly unexpected happened, he’d be in the greatest danger, how could he not be anxious?
Yang Yiguan’s face also turned extremely pale in an instant, "Could it be ’it’?"
Everyone’s gaze sharpened, all turning towards Yang Yiguan, "It? What thing?"
"The Water Beast King, Ten Thousand Spirit Lake hasn’t been tidied up for over a hundred years, with such dense spiritual energy, perhaps a new... Water Beast King has emerged!" Yang Yiguan said.
Hu Qingtong pressed further, "The Water Beast King, what grade might it be?"
"Heavenly Level High Grade Peak, just shy of a Spirit Beast!" Yang Yiguan said.
Hearing this, Shadow Blade Shao Mo and Bian You both sighed in relief, "As long as it’s not a real Spirit Beast, we should be able to kill it with extreme ease, right?"
However, Yang Yiguan’s face showed no sign of relief, even paler, "You don’t understand the terror of an aquatic demon beast,
Aquatic demon beasts are much larger, among the same grades, an aquatic demon beast’s strength is usually several times that of a terrestrial demon beast, and moreover, this place is... Ten Thousand Spirit Lake..."
Woo!
Before Yang Yiguan’s words had fallen, a piercing wooing noise suddenly erupted from the depths of the water, the entire lake surface below the spirit boat suddenly collapsed down as if it had just caved in.
It was as if the lake water below had been sucked out, the massive spirit boat immediately sank a hundred meters, directly down to the bottom of the lake.
Boom!
Water from all directions poured back in.
In the water, six tentacles stretching a thousand meters and a massive brown tail pincer, like a water whip, lashed towards the people submerged in the water.
"One-tailed Crab King!"
"Be careful, this is a Heavenly Level High Grade One-tailed Crab King! No, not fearing the spirit boat’s pressure, its grade might already be near a Spirit Beast...."
Boom!
Yang Yiguan’s voice was drowned out by the lake water cascading down.
The six tentacles and the massive one-tailed pincer each locked onto a target, bombarding with fury.
The six tentacles targeted Yang Yiguan, Ye Zhen, Feng Qingyue, Lan Shuiqiao, Hu Qingtong, and Ma Yue, while the massive one-tailed pincer, carrying a wave of water, fiercely clamped towards Shao Mo, who was carrying Bian You on his back.
Shao Mo’s spirit light around his body burst forth, his form flickering, attempting to dodge.
But, fighting in water was completely different from on land, the actual speed was so far from what he had imagined, especially in a state of utter panic.
Before the pincer even arrived, the whirlpool created by the one-tailed pincer’s strike had already fiercely hit Shao Mo.
The enormous force of the whirlpool created by such a huge one-tailed pincer was more than a million pounds; just the whirlpool alone made Shao Mo involuntarily fly out, and as for Bian You, who was on Shao Mo’s back, he was directly blasted off Shao Mo.
Crack!
A terrifying snapping sound rang out, the just separated Bian You was immediately bitten by the one-tailed pincer, and with one twist of the pincer mouth, turned into minced meat, blood immediately spreading everywhere!
"Master, save....!"
Ma Yue’s scream for help could only get out one phrase before being submerged by the lake, the massive and long tentacle directly smashed Ma Yue’s protective spirit armor, wrapping Ma Yue up like a zongzi, rapidly rolling towards the massive mouth of the One-tailed Crab King.
"Yue’er!"
Yang Yiguan’s eyes suddenly bulged, a black long whip in his hand erupted with an amazing spirit light, furiously lashing out.
But just as the long whip flew out, another massive tentacle directly whipped down towards Yang Yiguan, immediately wrapping around him!
Whizz whizz!
Golden Heart Sword light in the water created fast rippling waves, directly severing a several meters long tentacle aimed at Ye Zhen’s head.
Feng Qingyue’s Purple and Blue Double Rings were even more ferocious, directly looping around the massive tentacle, a twist of the rings shredded the massive tentacle, not just that, the Purple and Blue light flickering, the rings locked on the massive tentacle moving alternately forward, rapidly shredding the thousand-meter-long tentacle inch by inch!
Woo!
Under the pain, the giant one-tailed pincer of the One-tailed Crab King let out a howl, biting towards Feng Qingyue! (To be continued.
