Chapter 151 - 151: 136: Illusions and Arriving at Quanjiang
The sound of the raging sea waves echoed in his ears.
Chen Sheng slowly opened his eyes.
What filled his sight was the boundless horizon of the sea.
The sea water underneath him was churning tumultuously.
Dark clouds filled the sky, as if thunder snakes were dancing wildly.
As expected.
He had returned once again to the ocean when he broke through the first level of Profound and True Martial Arts.
Before him…
Chen Sheng looked up.
Even though he was mentally prepared. But when his sight was overtaken by a huge pupil filled with playfulness,
Chen Sheng’s heart involuntarily shuddered.
And needless to say,
There was a vertical yellow pupil, staring at him coldly.
It was, yet again, Xuanwu.
It seemed like it was not satisfied with teasing him last time.
It had been waiting here for a while.
“You came again?”
Having had one experience before,
Chen Sheng’s mind quickly regained its calmness.
He met Xuanwu’s gaze, somewhat speechless.
After all, it was a divine beast.
Was it really that idle? Seeming to feel belittled,
Xuanwu snorted.
A thick column of Qi was exhaled from its nostrils.
The next moment,
This column of Qi turned into boundless gales, making it difficult for Chen Sheng to keep his eyes open.
It stirred up colossal waves that roared furiously.
Immediately after,
Before Chen Sheng could respond,
The giant snake beneath his foot once again opened its huge mouth.
And… grabbed him in its mouth.
Instantly, he was engulfed in darkness.
Closing in,
Was a rapid descent.
When Chen Sheng opened his eyes again, Below,
A vast black land came into sight.
More accurately, It was not the land,
But Xuanwu’s carapace.
It was just too enormous.
A glance reveals no boundaries.
What is it trying to do?
Chen Sheng was puzzled.
He was somewhat uncertain as to why he had to meet Xuanwu each time he made a breakthrough.
Could it be that,
He must gain its acknowledgement in the illusion,
To successfully upgrade? Before Chen Sheng could figure it out, Sudden changes took place.
A strange sensation arose from under his feet.
He looked down and saw that,
Unbeknownst to him, sea water began to seep out from Xuanwu’s carapace, rising visibly fast.
In just a few breaths, it had already reached Chen Sheng’s shins.
What is happening?
Chen Sheng looked on in confusion, observing his surroundings.
But compared to Xuanwu, he was just too minuscule.
The spikes rising from its carapace, from Chen Sheng’s point of view, looked like a range of continuous mountain tops.
The head of the snake that had grabbed him had also disappeared without a trace.
Soon,
The water level had risen more than two meters.
Chen Sheng had nowhere to escape and could only be submerged.
Gurgle gurgle_
Water was continuously flowing into his body through the holes in his face.
Chen Sheng’s eyes widened.
He was actually experiencing the sensation of suffocation.
In principle,
Having completed the first level of Profound and True Martial Arts, he should have been able to breathe underwater, and would not face the problem of suffocating in the water.
But at this moment,
It seemed as though all his abilities had been lost.
But Chen Sheng did not give up.
He flailed his limbs, trying his best to swim upwards to gain a chance to breathe.
But his rate of ascent could not catch up with the speed at which the water level was rising.
He could do nothing but watch as the water surface got further and further from him.
Chen Sheng, stuck in the illusion,
Seemed to no longer possess his unbeatable body, but was merely an ordinary person who was weaker than the weakest.
With the passage of time,
The sensation of suffocation was becoming increasingly intense.
Water had already occupied his lungs and throat.
Chen Sheng at this moment, his pupils were somewhat dilated.
The movement of his limbs was getting slower and slower.
The vision before his eyes was gradually blurring.
Consciousness was slowly dissipating.
In the end,
He once again plunged into darkness.
“Do not fear.” “Do not be afraid.’ “Accept them.”
“Now, they are friends.”
The Real World.
The Wastewater Discharge Area.
The heavy rain continues unabated.
The densely falling raindrops linked into a sheet, turning into a curtain of rain covering Heaven and Earth.
Whirl –
The raindrops struck the ground, causing friction with the air.
The resulting clamor drowned all other noises in the surroundings.
In the midst of the rainfall.
The deep blue rune pattern on Chen Sheng’s skin was gradually solidifying.
His brows were furrowed deeply, and his mouth was open, trying to breathe.
His hands trembled slightly, occasionally raising them.
It seemed like he was trying to grab onto something.
The raindrops falling from the sky around him were not flowing into the river along the slightly sloped ground.
Instead, they were eerily lingering on the ground.
Centered on Chen Sheng, the surrounding ground within a dozen meters.
Pooling water swiftly rose.
This pooled water surrounded Chen Sheng, periodically causing splashes, hitting Chen Sheng’s face.
It seemed,
Like it was trying to wake Chen Sheng.
One hour later.
At the entrance of Yinghui Grocery Store.
Qi Ming held an umbrella, shielding Li Hengkong from the falling rainwater.
“Ancestor, this is the registered residence of the Eagle Body Sect registered in the Martial Arts Association. ” “Just that…..”
Qi Ming’s face darkened slightly.
When the two were about to reach Quanjiang City, he had already tried to reach the trailing personnel via phone. But there was no response at all.
Clearly,
They had already been discovered by Chen Sheng.
Even though he had warned the trailing personnel in advance not to pay too much attention to Chen Sheng, and just needed to keep an eye on his movements.
With a martial artist of Chen Sheng’s level, anyone who stared at him for more than a second would be quickly noticed.
But it’s unknown whether the trailing personnel were too bold, or Chen Sheng had other means.
In short,
Qi Ming did not expect Chen Sheng to stay here waiting for them after discovering that someone was tailing him.
“Ancestor, someone must have tipped him off in advance—”
Saying that,
Qi Ming was about to pick up the phone, ready to pursue Chen Sheng’s tracks through other channels,
But was interrupted by a wave of a hand.
“It doesn’t matter.”
“He will come out.”
Li Hengkong still had a smiling face.
Having said that,
He stretched out his hand and pulled open the glass door directly.
The door was not locked.
It seemed like it was waiting for their arrival.
Li Hengkong did not hesitate.
He stepped in.
The shop’s lights were not on, and it was raining outside.
So it was exceptionally gloomy.
He did not continue to move forward.
Instead, he looked into the corner above.
In the gloomy environment, there was a little red light that flickered from time to time.
A surveillance camera.
When he was standing at the door,
had already noticed this camera.
“Eagle Body Sect Leader, Chen Sheng.”
“Suspected of attacking Xiang Zeng, a disciple of the Power Sect, in Haizhou City yesterday, causing him to be seriously injured, and causing a large number of casualties. The scene was severely damaged.”
“Today, Li Hengkong of the Kongming Boxing Club came to inquire and found that including Chen Sheng, all the members of the Eagle Body Sect had fled.”
“Thus, a manhunt is issued.”
Li Hengkong seemed to be speaking to the camera, and was also making a declaration.
Having said that,
He chuckled and stroked his white beard.
“Chen Sheng.”
“If you don’t come out today.”
“Tomorrow, this news will be reported directly to the Wu’an Bureau and the headquarters of the Martial Arts Association. ”
“Given the Power Sect’s domination, even if you can hide for a while.”
“Everyone related to you will suffer.”
“Good luck. ”
Having said that,
Li Hengkong closed his eyes and stood there without moving.
Waiting for something.
People are obtuse.
They are used to binding themselves with emotions.
During the decades he served at the Kongming Martial Arts Gym,
He had witnessed countless powerful martial artists being dragged down by so-called emotions, ending up with nothing.
Li Hengkong believed,
Chen Sheng would be no exception.
After a while,
Ring, ring, ring-
The phone ringtone came from outside.
Qi Ming picked up the phone, looking at the screen.
His pupils contracted immediately.
This number.
Came from the trailing personnel from before.
“Hello.”
Qi Ming put the phone to his ear, his face serious.
The next second,
Chen Sheng’s voice came from the other end of the phone. “You cheeky thing, remember when I saved your life?”
