Chapter 606 - Exchanging Blows
Once he had reached Grandmaster Greater Completion, Jiang Feng did not leave the clamshell. Instead, he decided to first stabilize and familiarize himself with his current power.
Since he knew that Qingqiu was alright, he had calmed down and was no longer in a rush of going down.
Not to mention that the earlier he went down, the earlier he would die.
Only when he had become powerful would he have the confidence to face the danger down there.
After he had stabilized his power at Grandmaster Greater Completion, he then continuously ate the remaining 21 Super Enhancing Pills to see if he could break through into the Abyssal Realm.
Unfortunately, even after spending another ten hours in the shell and eating another 16 Super Enhancing Pills, he was only able to increase his power to the peak of Grandmaster Greater Completion. He was only one step away from reaching the Abyssal Realm.
“It seems that in order to reach the Abyssal Realm, just purely filling up my body with inner chi is useless. I still need to find understanding and comprehension in both martial arts and humanity!”
In truth, after eating the tenth Super Enhancing Pill, he had already reached the peak of Grandmaster Greater Completion. The remaining six pills had only enriched the inner chi within his body, but they did not allow him another breakthrough into the Abyssal Realm.
And that was why he did not choose to eat the remaining 5 Super Enhancing Pills. There might be other uses for them later.
Since he was no longer going to digest any more Super Enhancing Pills, there was no need for him to stay within the shell. He then turned to the mermaid that had been observing him and said, “Let me out.”
The mermaid did ask him for more Super Enhancing Pills before that, but he did not give any to her. He only promised to give the pills to her after they had left this place.
The mermaid was not angered when she heard this, and she merely maintained her smile.
Once out of the shell, he put on his oxygen mask and then began to practice his martial arts after readying the Xingyi Fist’s stance.
Every move he made under the water was met with great resistance due to the water pressure. It was very difficult for him to even punch, although enhancing it with inner chi would allow him to unleash great power.
In order to familiarize himself with fighting underwater, he continuously swung his fists.
“Crushing Fist!” He shot his fist toward a rock in front of him. His powerful chi caused the water to ripple as it slammed into the rock, causing it to instantly crack.
“As expected, my fists and inner chi are greatly weakened in water. My punches’ power can’t even reach the level of Grandmaster Lesser Completion. It’s going to be difficult for me to fight with the sea monsters unless I activate my chi shield.” He frowned as he looked at the cracked rock. He then continued with his training, trying to master how to control his inner chi when he was in the water.
As he trained, he could feel his fists becoming lighter, and he could feel less of those pressure from before.
Not only that, he could finally fight with his fists under the water at the full level of Grandmaster Greater Completion. However, it would expend more inner chi from his body.
However, the cost of the inner chi was nothing to him thanks to the existence of Enhancing Pills and Super Enhancing Pills.
Once he had increased his power and his fists had become more powerful, there was no point in staying there anymore. He was going to meet up with Qingqiu, and then exchange a few blows with the sea monsters.
He then turned to the mermaid and said, “Come, let us go to the next layer!”
Jiang Feng then entered the clam. The mermaid also nodded and entered the clam. She then controlled the clamshell and headed toward a nearby trench.
There were around a thousand meters in distance between the first area and the second area.
The clam quickly descended as they sat in the clamshell controlled by the mermaid’s inner chi.
The second layer of the ocean was very quiet. There was no movement at all.
If it was not because Jiang Feng had received Qingqiu’s message, he would even think that there were no sea monsters here.
Since they wanted to ambush him without him knowing, he naturally would not do anything to reveal that he knew. He then slowly headed toward where Qingqiu was.
The mermaid followed tightly behind him.
“I didn’t expect there to be so many sunken ships, airplanes, and skeletons. It seems that all the ships and planes that went missing all ended up here for some unknown reasons!” He kept on scanning the second layer of the deep sea as he walked toward Qingqiu’s location.
There were many sunken ships, airplanes, and skeletons in this second layer.
He did not have to even think to know where the sunken ships, airplanes, and skeletons came from.
Roar!
Just as he was about to reach where Qingqiu was, there was a roar coming from not too far away all of a sudden. There was a giant shark to his left pouncing straight toward him as it opened its bloody mouth.
“Crushing Fist!” He was already prepared for this, so he had quickly infused inner chi into his fists and smashed it toward the shark.
Boom!
The seawater was divided by his attack as his fist violently slammed into the shark’s head, and it immediately created a depression on its head.
The shark was at most at Grandmaster Lesser Completion level, and would not be able to defeat him at all. His one attack had greatly injured it as it lay limp on the mud.
Roar!
At this time, a dragon roar could be heard and a ship in front of Jiang Feng was torn apart. Then, a Green Dragon jumped out from within, his claws clawed at the two sea monsters that were hiding in front of him. He roared, and the two sea monsters were shredded to halves.
“Boss!”
After killing the two sea monsters, Qingqiu then instantly went by Jiang Feng’s side.
Jiang Feng jumped and landed on Qingqiu’s giant head.
When the mermaid saw this, she too controlled the clamshell and latched onto the Green Dragon. She was incredibly careful the entire time, afraid that she would anger him.
When he had reached this place, Qingqiu had yet to find out the reason that the group of elites from the Yin Sect had been slain. Therefore, his mission was still incomplete.
As Jiang Feng himself was quite curious about what was deeper down, he then said to Qingqiu, “Qingqiu, let’s go to the next layer!”
“Understood!” Qingqiu nodded and quickly headed toward the trench that would lead them to the third layer.
“Roar!”
At this time, a roar could be heard. Then, the Sea Wyrm leading a school of sea monsters appeared around Qingqiu, surrounding him tightly.
“Let’s go, there’s no need for us to stay here!” Jiang Feng said to Qingqiu as he clenched his fists, and kept on using Crushing Fist and Exploding Fist on the Sea Monsters.
The two attacks that were from Xingyi Fist had flexible range and were extremely potent. All the sea monsters that were struck all had the mark of a fist on them as they lay in the mud in pain.
Whoosh!
When the Sea Wyrm saw that Jiang Feng had already injured around eight of his sea monsters, it became extremely furious and conjured a ball of water in its mouth as it attempted to attack Jiang Feng.
“Roar!”
Qingqiu let out a roar and crushed the ball of water using its chi-infused claw.
Jiang Feng then used this chance and attacked the Sea Wyrm.
When the Sea Wyrm saw his attack, it did not choose to dodge. Instead, it whipped its tail straight toward Jiang Feng’s fists.
Boom!
There was an explosion and Jiang Feng almost fell from Qingqiu. The Sea Wyrm had also suffered injuries as its body was forced back for quite some distance. Several of its scales from its tail were been torn off.
“Looks like the Sea Wyrm has yet to reach the power of the Abyssal Realm. Otherwise, I would not even be able to injure it at all!” After exchanging blows with the Sea Wyrm, he was already able to estimate the Sea Wyrm’s true power.
And at this time, Qingiqu managed to enter the third layer of the deep sea without any more interference.
