Chapter 68 Whale Swallowing
However, crystal cores were not swallowed casually. They could only swallow cores with the same attributes as one"s own abilities. Those who swallowed the cores randomly were almost dead.
Kong Yun looked at his dantian with a strange expression. There was also something similar to a crystal core in his dantian. He didn"t know if anyone would kill him and dig up the crystal core.
Moreover, his ability was a metal ability. He hadn"t encountered a mutated beast using a metal ability yet. Doesn"t that mean he can"t evolve his ability by devouring the crystal nucleus?
"Your ability is very special. I haven"t seen a similar ability as you, so I don"t know what kind of crystal core you should devour." Ye Shiya said.
It was good that Ye Shiya didn"t say anything, but Kong Yun was even more depressed. The Buddha Sword had dug open the abdomen of the sea turtle, and there were actually more than ten white turtle eggs in its stomach!
"Turtle egg!" Kong Yun"s eyes lit up. Haha, the heavens still have eyes. They actually gave him a big gift.
This turtle was actually a female, and there were so many turtle eggs in its stomach. Kong Yun knew how valuable the mutated beast egg was.
He took out all the turtle eggs and took advantage of the fact that Ye Shiya hadn"t discovered them to transfer them into the spatial ring. If he wasn"t afraid that Ye Shiya would discover the secret of the spatial ring, Kong Yun would have stuffed the entire turtle into the spatial ring.
Standing on the ice and waiting for the warship to return, Ye Shiya had already sent a signal to the warship. They had already dealt with the sea turtle.
Kong Yun carefully cut the turtle, wanting to take away all the valuable things on its body.
Ye Shiya looked at Kong Yun in surprise. She looked at Kong Yun"s skilled movements. This was not something that could be practiced overnight. Adepts rarely did it themselves. Why did Kong Yun have such skilled movements?
"Isn"t that strange? I used to be a scavenger. All of this is about to become my instinct!" Kong Yun chuckled.
"Sc.r.a.p picker?" Ye Shiya looked at Kong Yun in disbelief. She knew very well what kind of person scavengers were. There were millions of scavengers in Haimen City. The only purpose of scavengers was to open up a path for mercenaries and the army. The mortality rate was frighteningly high. More than 50% of them would die on their first mission.
"Are you really a scavenger?" Although Kong Yun had personally said it, Ye Shiya still found it inconceivable.
"Yes, five years!" In just a short while, Kong Yun had finished decomposing the giant turtle. He placed it neatly and found two pieces of blue ore in the turtle"s stomach.
"Five years!" Even the cold Ye Shiya was moved. Sc.r.a.p picker was a profession with a high mortality rate. Kong Yun was actually able to be a sc.r.a.p picker for five years.
Kong Yun only smiled and did not answer. Ye Shiya did not ask further. The atmosphere was a little awkward when the two of them did not speak.
"Whoosh!" Kong Yun"s ears twitched as he frowned. There seemed to be a sound coming from the seabed.
"Did you hear anything?" Kong Yun asked.
"What sound? No sound?" Ye Shiya shook her head.
"No, there"s a voice approaching!" Kong Yun suddenly stood up and looked under the ice!
A huge black shadow slowly floated up. It was so big. This black shadow was at least several hundred meters long. It was even bigger than that warship. The sea turtle from before was like a baby in front of this black shadow!
"Be careful! Fire Phoenix!" Kong Yun hugged Ye Shiya and jumped up. A red bolt of lightning flew past and the fiery phoenix"s sharp claws grabbed Kong Yun"s shoulder!
"Boom!" The ice shattered, and a huge whale rushed out of the sea, its enormous body covering the sky!
At first, Ye Shiya resisted. She did not like to be so close to men, but when she saw this enormous whale, she was completely stunned.
Even though the fire phoenix was flying in the air, it still couldn"t leave the whale"s attack range. The whale that jumped out of the water opened its mouth and Kong Yun and the others were sucked in!
"Bang!" His enormous body landed on the surface of the sea, and monstrous waves soared into the sky. The distant battleships were also affected by the waves, and were blown hundreds of kilometers away by the waves!
"Ah!" Kong Yun and Ye Shiya cried out in alarm as they slid down the giant whale"s mouth into its stomach!
The giant whale"s body was simply too big. Its intestines seemed to be endless. Kong Yun and the others didn"t know how long they had been gliding. They grasped the right moment and condensed the Blazing Flame Spear into the giant whale"s flesh and blood. Only then did they stop sliding!
"Whoosh!" Kong Yun panted violently and pulled Ye Shiya onto the Blazing Flame Spear. Turning on the lights, he looked at the surrounding intestinal walls and smiled bitterly.
"Have you seen that giant whale before?" Kong Yun asked.
Ye Shiya shook her head, "I have traveled this route five or six times. It is the safest route opened by the Ye Clan. I have never encountered such a giant whale before!"
The whale itself is the overlord of the sea, is the largest creature on earth, Before the appearance of the Tian Qi virus, the whales in the ocean could reach tens of meters. However, the whale just now only revealed a head. Just that head alone was about one to two hundred meters long. In addition, they had been swallowed into their stomachs for so long, yet they had never reached the end. This whale"s body length had probably reached a thousand meters!
A giant whale over a thousand meters long had actually reached such a terrifying level after being infected by the Heavenly Apocalypse Virus!
No matter how powerful a human"s technology was, no matter how powerful an Adept was, it was undoubtedly impossible to deal with a giant whale that was over a thousand meters long. Even if the Fire G.o.d was here, it was unlikely that he would be able to defeat this giant whale.
The ocean was a forbidden area for humans. There were too many powerful mutated beasts in the ocean. Today, humans could not be the opponents of these mutated beasts!
"Fortunately, the giant whale"s mouth is big enough to directly swallow us!" Kong Yun smiled.
"You can still laugh?" Ye Shiya snorted.
"Why can"t we laugh? Aren"t we still alive? We have a chance before we die!" Kong Yun laughed heartily and turned on the illumination function of his brain. The darkness was immediately dispersed.
"Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!" The fire phoenix uneasily landed on Kong Yun"s shoulder. The giant whale just now had indeed frightened the fire phoenix.
Kong Yun looked at the slippery intestinal wall. They should still be in the intestinal tract of the whale. It was impossible for them to walk back. The intestinal wall was sticky, and there was no place for them to land. Unless they could fly, they would not be able to climb up.
"We can only continue down. The end of this intestinal tract should be the stomach. Be careful of his stomach acid. This big fellow dares to swallow anything. The stomach acid is definitely formidable. Everything can be digested. If he falls into the stomach acid, he will die!" Kong Yun said.
Ye Shiya nodded, "I will control my speed!"
"Take this and slowly walk down!" Kong Yun handed over two short spears and stabbed them into his intestines to stabilize his body.
Ye Shiya looked at Kong Yun and said, "The s.p.a.ce of your spatial items is not small. It can actually hold so many things."
"It cost me a lot of money!" Kong Yun chuckled as he took out two short spears and walked forward.
Although Ye Shiya was an A-cla.s.s Adept, her level of ability was much stronger than Kong Yun"s, and her strength was also much stronger than Kong Yun"s. However, her body was only slightly stronger than an ordinary person"s. It was impossible for her to compare with Kong Yun who possessed a metal ability. He stood in front of her. If he encountered any danger, his chances of survival would definitely be greater than Ye Shiya"s.
It wasn"t Kong Yun"s good intentions, absolutely not. It was just that he needed Ye Shiya"s strength. Ye Shiya"s life was definitely more useful than her death!
It could be said that Kong Yun had made the most correct choice because of their strength, but in Ye Shiya"s opinion, this was not the case. This man, who was not familiar with her, actually chose to protect her. This action touched the softest part of Ye Shiya"s heart.
Previously, if Kong Yun hadn"t hugged her the moment the giant whale attacked, she would have been buried at the bottom of the sea.
The short spear pierced into the intestinal wall, providing support for Kong Yun and Ye Shiya. They slowly advanced!
A void appeared in front of him. Kong Yun carefully moved to the edge. Looking at the continuously dripping gastric juice, this was the stomach of the giant whale!
He stretched out his short spear and a drop of gastric juice dripped down. With a "chi" sound, the short spear was actually corroded!
Kong Yun couldn"t help but suck in a breath of cold air. The corrosiveness of this gastric juice was so shocking that if a person went down, they would probably be instantly dissolved to the point that there wasn"t even any residue left.
Due to his helplessness, Kong Yun could only wear that golden armor. Although this would expose some of his trump cards, he could no longer care so much about life and death.
Looking down at the lights, there was a tumbling green stomach juice below, like a green ocean. There were also some remains that hadn"t been corroded. It was impossible to see what it was on his face anymore.
"There"s an island there!" Ye Shiya cried out in alarm. There was actually a small island in the middle of her stomach. This small island was only about forty to fifty square meters. It should have been swallowed by this giant whale.
"The intestinal tract of this giant whale is so constrictive that it didn"t choke to death after swallowing such a large island?" Kong Yun thought to himself.
There was only one big tree on this island. Its branches were luxuriant, and its stomach sap dripped down. It was blocked by the leaves, and then dripped down below. Furthermore, the leaves had not been corroded.
"Perhaps that island is the safest place!" Kong Yun took a deep breath. Obviously, he had already decided to go to that island.
"Hold me tight, let"s go to that island!" Kong Yun said.
"Hug you tightly?" Ye Shiya"s expression changed slightly.
"Alright, then I"ll suffer a bit. I"ll hug you tight!" Kong Yun hugged Ye Shiya, and the willow branch of his finger flew out, wrapped around the tree, and directly swam over!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
A burst of rushing water rushed out like a flood. Kong Yun and the others would be swallowed up by the sea water if they were a step slower and would be washed into their stomach juices. They would undoubtedly die.
