Chapter 316 String Release
The big fish became agitated, its body began to twist violently, and the small boat began to wriggle rapidly in its intestines.
"Not powerful enough," the old woman said through gritted teeth, her voice seemingly coming from between her teeth. Although no wails or heavy breathing were heard, everyone could feel her pain.
"I still have one silver ball. We still have one chance to unleash our full potential."
Zhong Ming knew he couldn't muster any more power. The only thing he could think of was to awaken the old guys in the "Spirit Retirement Home" and deliver another blow. But whether he could awaken them or not was another matter. Wouldn't a single shot kill the fish?
"How about we try to revive the Hidden Wolf Army warriors? With his help, our chances of success will be much greater."
"It's a pity we don't have any medical cultivators." The old woman sighed; it was impossible for him to wake up in such a short time.
"Get ready, we..."
"I need another hour." It was quite rare for Chi Tong to actually make a request. Zhong Ming immediately became excited. Could it be that he was going to get some great treasures from Wanbing Valley?
The old woman hesitated for a moment, then agreed to her request.
The cabin was once again shrouded in darkness, and the small boat returned to silence, without emitting a trace of spiritual energy. It was like an ordinary stone, drifting with the current.
Some unusual noises came from afar, sometimes near, sometimes far.
"These are nuclear protozoa. They parasitize the giant bone abyss fish, helping it kill enemies that invade its body. In return, they share some of the food the giant bone abyss fish eats."
The old woman gave a brief explanation: these little creatures weren't capable of chewing through the ship, and might not even recognize the secrets hidden inside, so they would just walk right past it.
After a while, the rustling sound gradually faded away, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, regaining their strength amidst the jolts.
"Are you ready?"
"All right."
In fact, only Akame responded; the others were already prepared.
"start!"
Following the same pattern as before, Zhong Ming swung his sword upwards as soon as the battle began. This time, he learned his lesson and acted together with the old woman.
The old woman's silver ribbon spun continuously into a spiral drill bit. Under the flash of spiritual power, the smooth ribbon became as hard as steel. With a single strike, it pierced a large hole in the opponent. Then, some dust successfully seeped into the big fish's body through the gaps in the ribbon.
Zhong Ming slashed out with his sword, and a strange bow sounded beside him. The longsword shot out in response, as fast as lightning, disappearing into flesh and blood.
"Excellent archery skills." He turned around and was suddenly stunned. He saw that the bow with red eyes was not tied with a bowstring, but with a thin rope that she had just woven from her own hair.
I probably won't have the chance to see the red-eyed fairy with the buzz cut a second time in my life.
Zhong Ming immediately realized that when he shot the hook-and-sickle spear as if it were a bow and arrow, the bowstring had snapped completely.
His grip tightened instantly, and the intense heat emanating from the spear had reached its peak.
As the spear thrust forward, someone threw a lightning bolt, which landed right on the same wound. Instantly, lightning flashed and the light intensified. Everyone covered their eyes, but Zhong Ming, thanks to the effect of the red tassel on his spear, was not affected in the slightest and completed all his thrusts.
A whiff of burnt aroma wafted over, along with the unpleasant stench of fish belly. Taking advantage of everyone's discomfort, Zhong Ming immediately reached out and pulled Chi Tong away from his position, while also giving a shameless male cultivator a hard kick. The positions of the group were instantly switched.
He shouted, "Five breaths have passed, get on the boat quickly!"
This time, before boarding the ship, several people threw out a whole bunch of explosive, poisonous, and sharp objects. The moment the roof was closed, a cacophony of clanging metal and explosions filled the air, and the Giant Bone Abyss Fish definitely felt extreme abdominal pain.
Suddenly, everyone lost their balance, and the small boat tumbled over inside the fish's belly, with everyone huddled together.
Zhong Ming cleared a small area, shielding Chi Tong beneath him. Taking advantage of the chaos, he whispered in her ear, "Get me some cloth, any clothes will do, I'll fold you a hair-binding cap."
She hesitated for a moment, and soon after, a soft piece of silk was handed to his face, and a pair of jade hands pressed against his chest, so that he no longer needed to use his arms to support the cabin. However, his head would occasionally slam hard against the ship's wall, making the dragon soul inside him almost jump out and curse.
This continued for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, after which the big fish began to swim forward quickly and rhythmically.
They didn't know their location in the ocean; they could only estimate it roughly.
After things stabilized, the group began to channel their spiritual energy back into the small boat.
At this moment, Akame was wearing a light blue hair-binding cap.
Archers' head coverings are usually not like this; they are usually large cloth bags that hold all the hair and keep it from moving around. Akame's head covering is more like a tube, with one end on her head to hold all the "hair" inside, and the other end hanging down her back. It is unclear where the ribbon is, but it is tied to her chest to keep it in place.
It was stuffed with some miscellaneous fabric that couldn't be folded up, and at least it looked like it had hair.
However, almost no one cares about these outfits. After a battle, who has clothes intact? Even the soft armor under the robes might be damaged, let alone ordinary clothes.
The old woman calculated with her fingers and, enduring the excruciating pain, said, "In the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, we will drive the spirit boat forward at full speed. I am no longer able to fully control this ship. Please help me."
"no problem!"
Zhong Ming frantically circulated his meridians, forcefully drawing out the spiritual energy within the dragon vein. It soared upwards along the Zhongzhu acupoint, breaking through the stone barrier, entering the divine seal, and reaching the spiritual ruins. It shone brightly at the Shencang acupoint, thereby mobilizing the spiritual energy throughout his body and transforming it into the two ends of Yin and Yang.
One end was led by the extra spiritual power of the dragon vein, and the other end was led by the mica polishing brick that suppressed the vein. They flowed alternately and were poured into the spirit boat at the old woman's command.
In an instant, the spirit boat transformed into a blur, with countless streams of spiritual energy bursting forth, accelerating it to an unbelievable speed.
Well, to put it bluntly, they dared to do this because the old woman judged that they were almost at the... rectal area.
After a few breaths, the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly.
