Chapter Title: Battle of Heaven
As Liu Feng and Bai Mu, the two lively characters, left, Chen Chu felt that the hotel base had turned a bit desolate.
However, this did not affect him.
Back in the hotel, Chen Chu continued to cultivate. He hesitated to exchange contribution points for energy crystals, which caused his usual cultivation speed to slow down significantly.
During his practice, Chen Chu’s consciousness sank to the sword armored beast's side.
Two hundred meters deep under the ocean, a black mutated beast, now grown to eight meters, lurked in the darkness, its body completely still, with its two sides’ crimson feathered horns slightly retracted.
Not far from it, three crystal horn mutated fish, each ten meters long, were patrolling their territory, searching for the dangerous creature that had been continuously attacking their kind.
After more than ten days, the sword armored beast had almost hunted down all the crystal horn mutated fish under nine meters in length.
In this situation, these slightly intelligent mutated fish became more vigilant. The remaining six mutated fish, each ten meters long, would patrol the area every day.
Even the three enormous mutated fish, measuring fifteen, twenty, and twenty-three meters respectively, would send out one of their number daily to patrol a surrounding area of several kilometers.
However, the ocean is not like land; it is three-dimensional.
Therefore, as long as the sword armored beast lay still on the hundreds of meters deep seafloor, the crystal horn mutated fish would not detect it.
Unless they were unluckily to encounter each other face-to-face in close proximity.
Once the three crystal horn mutated fish swam away, the sword armored beast, sensing the nearby calmness of the water, began to move slightly: “These guys are too alert; they are hard to kill.”
In its perception, a single ten-meter-long crystal horn mutated fish could be killed in an instant by the sword armored beast.
But if the opponent gathered in groups of three, it would be a bit troublesome, as their freezing beam energy attack was too fast for it to guarantee it wouldn't be frozen itself.
Moreover, if it attracted a ten to twenty-meter-long crystal horn mutated fish, it would be quite troublesome, even for it.
After all, these creatures might not be strong in physical combat, but their high level meant that their energy attacks were terrifying; that freezing cold light was something even the sword armored beast feared.
“Forget it, let them go for now.” After weighing the options, the sword armored beast chose to turn and leave, deciding to come back when it was stronger to devour them.
In the pitch-black depths of the sea, the equally dark and fierce mutated beast vanished in the blink of an eye.
With the speed of the sword armored beast, it quickly swam out of tens of kilometers of ocean, and once it was far from the territory of the crystal horn mutated fish, it began to ascend.
The ocean is the ocean; as the sword armored beast reached a depth of over fifty meters, two ten-meter-long mutated great white sharks appeared ahead.
Compared to ordinary great white sharks, these two mutated sharks were even larger, their bodies covered in armor-like gray scales and filled with sharp teeth.
At this moment, sunlight pierced through the water, illuminating the surroundings, allowing the sword armored beast to see far and enhancing the sight of other fish as well.
Thus, when the black mutated beast approached within several dozen meters, the two mutated great white sharks also noticed it.
In comparison to the two robust mutated great white sharks, the sword armored beast, while looking fierce, seemed less intimidating with its tail making up half of its body.
So, with a swish of their tails, the two mutated great white sharks stirred up a massive amount of water, charging towards the sword armored beast in a hunting formation at high speed.
Buzz!!
As they closed in on the sword armored beast, the two mutated great white sharks opened their mouths, unleashing an invisible sonic wave that made all the small fish and shrimp within a ten-meter radius turn belly up.
