Chapter 227: Level-Three Monster
Ding! Ding! Ding!
His phone rang. Qin Chuan did not look at the caller ID and picked it up.
Guan Zexiao’s voice came through the phone.
“Sect Master, you’re finally out.”
Guan Zexiao sounded anxious. It seemed that something had happened.
Qin Chuan frowned as he asked, “What’s wrong?”
Guan Zexiao cut to the chase, “Yesterday, we observed a monster swimming towards our southern seas.
“At present, the monster has stopped outside the sea area. There was no movement for the time being. We think it went back into hibernation again.
“But we cannot predict when it will wake up after all. Its presence there would ultimately be a threat to us.
“I can’t let this unpredictable bomb stay there.”
“It’s just a monster, you guys should be able to handle it. There’s no need to be so nervous!” Qin Chuan teased.
“It’s more special this time. According to the energy fluctuations, we believe it’s a level-three monster.
“It is our first time encountering a level-three monster. We have no combat experience.
“However, after a night of battle simulation, we roughly concluded that it would take a million tons of nuclear weapons to destroy it.
“You also know that such a large number of nuclear weapons would cause a huge commotion. It would be difficult to explain to the public.
“It cannot be a small conflict or a military exercise between countries.
“We activated nuclear weapons, but the people are not fools. It will definitely cause social unrest.” Guan Zexiao explained.
Qin Chuan didn’t say anything else and immediately replied, “I understand what you mean. Give me the location of the monster.”
“Alright, I’ll send it to you right away.”
After Qin Chuan hung up, he received the monster’s location on his mobile phone.
After which, Qin Chuan soared through the air and flew towards the location.
Qin Chuan estimated that the strength of this level-three monster was equivalent to an early-stage Golden Core cultivator.
Although Qin Chuan was only in the fifth cla.s.s of Golden Core, his cultivation technique had reached the third cla.s.s, so he should be able to kill it easily.
A few minutes later, he arrived.
It was night.
As it was close to the tropical zone, the temperature would not be very low, even in winter.
This was the open sea. Usually, many merchant s.h.i.+ps pa.s.sed by.
But, because of the monster, the government informed the merchant s.h.i.+ps they couldn’t sail in the area for the time being.
Currently, it was time for the monsters to awaken, and there would often be monsters appearing.
Although there were only one or two of them, ordinary level-one monsters were no less than natural disasters to humans.
Therefore, if all the monsters were to awaken, it would be doomsday.
Presently, Qin Chuan stood in the air above the sea.
He saw many wars.h.i.+ps from Xia Country.
Just then, his phone rang.
“Mr. Qin, this is Xia Country’s Yellow Dragon No.1 Battles.h.i.+p.”
“h.e.l.lo!” Qin Chuan replied coolly.
“Our superiors have already instructed us to take orders from you.
“The weapons and ammunition on our battles.h.i.+p are ready. Please instruct us what to do next.”
Qin Chuan immediately replied, “All of you stay where you are and observe the situation in the nearby seas. No one is allowed to come near here.”
“Roger that.”
After the call ended, Qin Chuan executed the water-avoiding spell and dived into the sea.
This part of the sea was not considered deep, only about two thousand meters deep.
With that thought, he spread out his divine consciousness.
Currently, Qin Chuan’s range for divine consciousness was 30 kilometers, twice that of an ordinary Golden Core cultivator. It could be said to be quite abnormal.
After extending his divine consciousness, Qin Chuan quickly discovered the level-three monster.
This level-three monster was almost a hundred meters long. Its head was a huge fish head. It looked just like a deep-sea fish. It was extremely ugly and terrifying.
This fish head had a long antenna with a ball at the end emitting blue light.
From afar, it looked like a hand-held lantern.
Although the monster’s head was similar to that of a fish, its body structure was still that of a reptile.
Very quickly, Qin Chuan arrived before the giant fish head.
The monster’s eyes were closed, and its breathing was steady as though it had fallen into a deep sleep.
This was a good opportunity to kill the monster.
But Qin Chuan did not make a move.
He released his aura slightly.
The next moment…
The monster suddenly opened its eyes.
When it saw the human before him, the monster’s eyes glinted with a ferocious light. It immediately raised its claws and snapped out.
A level-three monster was extremely terrifying, with almost 100,000 tons of pressure.
Such strength could easily destroy a hundred-meter tall hill.
Qin Chuan did not dodge the gigantic claw that was approaching him.
After his cultivation level and cultivation technique had improved, Qin Chuan wanted to test the extent of his physical strength.
In the blink of an eye.
A gigantic claw appeared in front of Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan stretched out his palm in defense.
The level-three monster was over a hundred meters in size. Even its fingernail was larger than Qin Chuan.
It could be said that their bodies were not even in the same dimension.
With such a huge disparity, Qin Chuan’s small palm and the monster’s large claw collided.
A loud bang resounded as if a comet had crashed into Earth. A huge shock wave instantly swept everything around them, and everything was scattered and destroyed.
The calm sea surface above instantly surged with huge waves.
In the center of the storm of energy, Qin Chuan was like a rock, unmoving.
His palm was pressed tightly against the monster’s claw.
The monster’s eyes widened in shock.
It did not expect an insignificant human to be as strong as it was.
The monster was feeling very displeased.
As a level-three monster, it could easily destroy a city with a population of millions.
But its attack was blocked by an ant-like human.
Although it wasn’t using its full strength, it was still humiliated.
If other monsters were to find out about this, how would I survive in the monster circle?
No, I must tear this human apart and grind his bones to dust.
The monster was furious, and its rage erupted like a volcano.
In an instant, blue patterns lit up on the monster’s body and quickly covered its entire body.
Its aura expanded exponentially, equivalent to a cultivator at the mid-stage of the Golden Core Realm.
Of course, it was just the ordinary kind.
When he saw the changes in the monster’s body, Qin Chuan’s expression remained the same, without any hint of panic.
He also knew that the monster’s casual attack earlier was not everything it had. He had not utilized his full strength either.
Moreover, in the earlier exchange, he had roughly deduced the level of his own strength.
Just then, the monster’s other claw slapped over.
Judging from the energy fluctuations, it was much stronger than the first attack.
“You came at the right time!” Qin Chuan smiled as he stretched out his hand to resist.
Bang!
With another loud bang, the two sides began their second confrontation.
The shockwaves from this exchange were even more terrifying than before.
The ground on both sides instantly sank, forming a huge crater.
Qin Chuan had still managed to block the attack.
When it saw this, the monster became even more shocked and furious.
It roared at Qin Chuan, and the lantern-like antenna on its head emitted a dazzling blue light.
The surrounding energy particles surged into the feeler.
Qin Chuan knew that the monster was about to unleash its ultimate move.
