Chapter 611: Condescending

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation , Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Qin Haishan glanced at Tong Linyun with some relief. If it weren’t for a strong mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm expert following them, they wouldn’t have had many options facing this turtle monster.

Their only choice was for several people to step forward and try to resist as much as possible, allowing the boat to sail first. As for whether anyone would die afterwards, it would entirely depend on their luck.

Chen Fei remained expressionless, glancing back at the empty void behind, though there was clearly no one there.

After a moment, Tong Linyun returned. The turtle monster, unable to break through Tong Linyun’s defense, hesitated for a moment and didn’t continue wasting time here.

After all, one warrior could hold it back, and although the other Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts were somewhat weaker, if they were to besiege it, it might endanger its life.

The turtle monster’s attempt to besiege these warriors was not only because it obeyed the orders of the monster king, but also because it wanted to devour the flesh and blood of the warriors to accelerate its own growth.

Just as monsters valued warriors, warriors were also a great tonic for monsters. By consuming more, they could greatly shorten their cultivation and advancement time.

Therefore, this siege was half the monster king’s command and half their own willingness.

In the future, opportunities for such widespread consumption of warriors would not come easily.

The sea monsters on the surrounding sea surface became fewer and fewer, and the chaotic atmosphere accumulated dissipated, relieving the heavy pressure in everyone’s hearts.

A feeling of rebirth after disaster emerged in the hearts of all, not only for those in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, but even for Qin Haishan and others, the feeling was the same.

Chen Fei looked at the calm sea ahead, suddenly turned the boat in another direction, and ran towards it.

Everyone was startled, but no one objected. In the time just now, Chen Fei had already proved everything.

The boat had just sailed for a while when ripples appeared in the sea dozens of miles behind, followed by a dark shadow emerging from below the sea, swiftly chasing towards Chen Fei’s direction.

Compared to other sea monsters, the shadow appeared extremely slender, and the sinister shadow at the head position made people feel fearful.

Chen Fei sensed the movement behind him, frowned slightly, and scanned the surroundings with his Heavenly Eyes. At this point, it was far from safe. Underneath the sea behind them was a third-tier late-stage sea serpent monster. Chen Fei was not afraid now, but if a fight broke out, it would attract a lot of attention. Even if Chen Fei could quickly resolve the battle, the death of a third-tier late-stage sea monster would immediately attract attention.

But at the current speed of the boat, even if Chen Fei used elemental force to push it, it would definitely not be faster than the pursuit of the third-tier late-stage sea monster.

The commotion caused by the third-tier late-stage sea monster behind them was sensed by Tong Linyun and the others, and they all felt a slight change in atmosphere, their faces turning pale.

A third-tier late-stage sea monster was a force they absolutely couldn’t resist.

But now that they were already here, would they fail like this?

Although they knew that escaping from this siege was not so simple, and even life-threatening, they never expected that it would end with being buried by a third-tier late-stage sea monster.

Wouldn’t all their previous efforts have been in vain then?

Tong Linyun looked anxiously at Chen Fei. At this moment, it seemed that only Chen Fei could provide them with a sense of security. But facing a third-tier late-stage sea monster, even though Chen Fei could crush it at will in the mid-stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm…

But how could they resist a third-tier late-stage sea monster?

Qin Haishan and the others also looked towards Chen Fei. It was time for the next decision. Should they continue dragging the boat along, which might lead to complete annihilation, or should they each flee for their lives?

Dragging the boat along might result in total disaster, whereas fleeing separately might offer a slightly better chance of survival. At least some of them might have the opportunity to survive.

Especially since they were now far from the center of the sea monster siege, a little more distance and they could actually leave this area of the sea.

Chen Fei remained silent, continuously calculating his current position, the position of the sea serpent, and the positions of other sea monsters in the distance that might have sensed the commotion here.

As time passed, not only those in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, but even those on the deck who were in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, sensed the majestic momentum of the third-tier late-stage sea monster behind them.

The kind of breath that seemed to tear life apart made many in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm pale.

For ordinary third-tier sea monsters, they were already unstoppable for those in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, let alone this kind of third-tier late-stage sea monster, which was like a natural disaster.

And they knew that the Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts on their side couldn’t resist this third-tier late-stage sea monster at all. So, were they going to be abandoned, and in the end, each left to escape on their own luck?

Without the protection of Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts, even encountering a few second-tier sea monsters here would leave them with no chance of survival, and this area of the sea happened to have the largest number of second-tier sea monsters.

Qin Haishan and the others saw Chen Fei’s lack of response and felt anxious, but they didn’t know how to urge him. They could only turn to Tong Linyun.’ As the only mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm expert among them, Tong Linyun seemed more suitable to give orders at this moment than Chen Fei.

Feeling the gaze of the others, Tong Linyun couldn’t help but smile bitterly. If Chen Fei didn’t speak, how could her words be effective?

Moreover, Tong Linyun didn’t believe that her idea would ultimately be more correct than Chen Fei’s.

Ever since the last time when she was saved by Chen Fei in a nearly life-threatening situation, Chen Fei had occupied an absolutely special place in Tong Linyun’s heart.

Without experiencing the near-death situation and being saved by someone, one couldn’t understand this feeling.

As the third-tier sea monster behind them drew closer, the panic on everyone’s faces became more and more evident. The feeling of knowing that one might die in the next moment but being unable to do anything about it was the most despairing.

“No need to panic, it’s just a third-tier late-stage sea monster,” Chen Fei said softly as he noticed the expressions of the others.

Upon hearing Chen Fei’s words, Qin Haishan and the others were stunned for a moment, not quite understanding the meaning behind Chen Fei’s words. They even wondered if they were too nervous and had misinterpreted Chen Fei’s words.

Tong Linyun also looked at Chen Fei with some confusion. Did Chen Fei now have the power to resist a third-tier late-stage sea monster?

With Chen Fei’s strength surpassing that of a mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm expert, it wasn’t entirely impossible for him to resist a third-tier late-stage sea monster to some extent. But Chen Fei’s current words seemed to imply more than just barely holding off.

Chen Fei didn’t explain further. When the sea serpent approached within ten miles of the boat from behind, Chen Fei activated the mark on the back of his hand.

A fierce and brutal aura suddenly burst from Chen Fei’s body. Chen Fei then restrained this aura and smashed it at a position not far from the sea serpent. The sea serpent, which had been swiftly swimming, suddenly paused, its large eyes filled with fear and confusion. How could the aura of a peak third-tier sea monster appear here?

The slender body of the sea serpent rose abruptly from below the sea surface, looking at the human boats in the distance. Instead of dispelling its doubts, the confusion in its eyes deepened.

Were the humans on these two boats being targeted by other sea monsters, and was this a warning from them?

The sea serpent was filled with doubts, feeling that something was not quite right, but its pursuit came to a halt.

Compared to these two potential prey, the fate of offending a peak third-tier sea monster would undoubtedly be more tragic. With its current strength, the sea serpent didn’t have much resistance against a peak third-tier sea monster. After hesitating for a moment, the sea serpent returned to the sea, no longer pursuing the boats, but swimming towards other directions.

There were plenty of prey around; there was no need to take too much risk. Although Chen Fei immediately restrained the aura of the peak third-tier sea monster and directed it towards a distance, the fleeting aura still left Qin Haishan and the others dumbfounded.

They couldn’t handle a third-tier late-stage sea serpent, let alone a peak third-tier sea monster. Wasn’t this forcing them to walk into the jaws of death? However, Qin Haishan and the others quickly realized that the aura of the peak third-tier sea monster originated from Chen Fei, indicating that this was some kind of secret technique.

What kind of secret technique was this, so exaggerated that it could simulate such a fierce aura? They had never heard of such a technique before, not even the slightest bit of information.

Feeling once again towards the distance, they found that the third-tier late-stage sea monster had changed course, no longer pursuing them. Qin Haishan and the others couldn’t help but show expressions of joy on their faces.

Although they didn’t know what Chen Fei’s secret technique was, the fact that the third-tier late-stage sea monster had given up the chase was the most crucial thing.

While the Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts sensed the changes in Chen Fei’s aura, those in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, who didn’t have such strong perception abilities, were still confused, not understanding why the third-tier late-stage sea monster behind them suddenly gave up the chase.

The pursuit of this third-tier late-stage sea monster had been the last obstacle for the sea monsters. With the help of Chen Fei’s Heavenly Eyes, the boat changed course several times and finally completely escaped from the siege of the sea monsters.

Hundreds of miles away, the elemental energy in the sky was still in chaos, indicating that the battle between the Mountain Sea Realm and the monster king was far from over.

As the boat completely left the area where the Sea Dominion City was located everyone’s hearts were relieved and smiles involuntarily appeared on their faces.

Under the layers of siege by the sea monsters, they unexpectedly emerged unscathed, with many individuals escaping unharmed from the encirclement. This was simply unimaginable.

As the boat sailed into the sea cliff area for over a hundred miles, the expressions of everyone relaxed.

However, Chen Fei suddenly paused, gazing at the void ahead. Tong Linyun and the others were puzzled, scanning their surroundings with their senses, but found nothing.

“How did you develop this kind of perception? Back then, outside Sea Dominion City, you were able to detect me. And how did you generate the aura of the peak third-tier sea monster earlier?”

The voice came from all directions, and a figure emerged from the void, standing in the sky, looking down at Chen Fei, paying no attention to the others.

“I’m becoming more and more curious about you!” Shi Yuanmin chuckled softly.

Late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm?

Tong Linyun and the others, upon hearing Shi Yuanmin’s words and sensing his aura, turned pale.

Having just escaped from the pursuit of the third-tier late-stage sea monster, they now faced a late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm expert, and’ it was obvious that the newcomer was hostile.

Out of the frying pan and into the fire!

But the aura of the peak third-tier sea monster emanating from Chen Fei seemed to have no effect on Shi Yuanmin.

Shi Yuanmin now appeared without any restraint, clearly showing that he had no intention of sparing anyone present!
