Chapter 104 Encountering a Thousand-Meter-Long Beast
On the attribute panel, Jiang Feng's lifespan had already reached 800 years.
"Haha, immortality is well within reach."
His strength could be said to have increased several times over; his Power and Agility had soared from 10,000 to 40,000, a fourfold increase.
His Physique was even higher, reaching 70,000, and he was almost approaching the threshold for another molting.
Jiang Feng felt that he was either molting or on the path to molting, his strength constantly rising.
His Mental Energy had also reached 50,000, and his Evil Snake Domain was sufficient to cover a radius of five kilometers—a small county town was nothing more than that.
Both his Thermal Sensing and visual range were now measured in kilometers; he was finally no longer that half-blind creature who was completely in the dark beyond one kilometer.
With his current strength, one could say he was invincible against behemoths within 200 meters.
Against behemoths under 300 meters, he had an over 80% chance of winning, and against those under 500 meters, he had at least a 30% chance.
Only behemoths over 500 meters might be able to pose a threat to him.
After all, the larger a behemoth grew, the more terrifying the increase in its strength.
With 40,000 Power and 70,000 Physique, Jiang Feng's current Strangulation force could easily reach over a thousand tons, with a maximum Strangulation force exceeding 2,000 tons.
Now, if a 10,000-ton warship were in front of him, he could easily capsize it.
His bite force also exceeded 500 tons; after all, snakes did not have an advantage in biting, and being able to reach such a level was entirely due to his size.
Unknowingly, another ten hours passed.
Jiang Feng had already completely devoured the first shark, increasing his Physique by 8,000 points.
With another 1,000 points, he would be able to trigger another molting.
However, the carcass of the other shark had clearly begun to rot and decompose. It was summer now, and the temperatures were high; it had long been over twelve hours since the shark died.
Jiang Feng couldn't be bothered to devour it, mainly because he felt disgusted.
Besides, this kind of rotten meat wouldn't add much to his Physique.
Jiang Feng surfaced, and Su Ling, who had been dazed at the bow of the boat, immediately stood up in pleasant surprise, "Xiaobai."
"Su Ling, I'm ready. I'll take you flying now."
"Xiaobai, aren't you going to sleep? You haven't slept for a whole day and night," Su Ling said with some concern.
"No need, I slept a little while I was devouring."
Jiang Feng wasn't lying; apart from tinkering with the system, he had been sleeping the entire time he was devouring, and sleeping didn't affect the devouring process.
"Oh, alright then," Su Ling nodded.
"Stand steady!" Jiang Feng happily twisted his body, like a little child, biting the rope and sprinting forward rapidly.
His Agility had now reached 40,000, and his speed was incomparably fast.
Jiang Feng did not deliberately suppress his speed and swam faster and faster.
Gradually, his snake body was floating directly on the surface of the sea, skimming across it rapidly, as if flying while pressed against the water.
On the fishing boat, Su Ling grabbed the mast tightly. The oncoming sea breeze, mixed with broken waves, blew so hard she couldn't open her eyes.
She had no choice but to turn around and face away.
This time, because Jiang Feng had deliberately raised the rope, the bow of the boat was lifted high and was not submerged by the waves.
At first, the boat was still on the surface of the sea, splitting the walls of waves and plowing a deep white scar across the water.
Later on, the scar became shallower and shallower until it disappeared completely.
Because the boat had taken flight; Jiang Feng's speed was so fast that the boat, like a kite, was blown directly up by the immense wind force, lifting it off the sea surface.
Feeling that the boat was no longer bumping, Su Ling slowly opened her eyes.
Looking at the boat gradually moving away from the sea surface, Su Ling had a feeling as if her soul was about to leave her body.
Is this what Xiaobai meant when he said he would take me flying?
It really flew up?
But, why do I feel a little scared?
Su Ling really wanted to ask Xiaobai to stop, but the sound of the wind was too loud, and she couldn't get the message across at all.
The boat was now four or five meters above the sea surface, and Su Ling seemed to hear the sound of a sonic boom.
The rope pulling the boat was taut, and at some moment, it finally couldn't bear the load and snapped in the middle.
"Ah!" Su Ling let out a scream.
A sudden sensation of weightlessness struck her, and then she and the fishing boat slammed heavily onto the surface of the sea.
Jiang Feng, who was sprinting, suddenly felt the rope in his mouth go limp, and the pulling force disappeared instantly.
Oh no, Su Ling is about to fall into the sea again.
Jiang Feng hurriedly halted his forward momentum and looked back, but where were the fishing boat and Su Ling?
Damn, the inertia carried him too far.
Fortunately, Jiang Feng's Thermal Sensing detected a small red dot behind him.
Jiang Feng quickly swam toward the small red dot.
However, just at this moment, Jiang Feng sensed a huge patch of red suddenly appear to the side of the small red dot.
That red color almost occupied the entire range of his sensory boundary.
A bad premonition suddenly rose in Jiang Feng's heart.
His sensory boundary was hundreds of meters wide, yet it wasn't even the full picture of that creature.
As he continued to approach, Jiang Feng's expression grew increasingly grim.
He still couldn't sense its full appearance—how huge of a behemoth was this?
Jiang Feng was anxious; that behemoth was approaching Su Ling.
This was a behemoth over a kilometer long.
Jiang Feng was horrified; with no time to think, he suddenly accelerated and rushed in front of Su Ling.
He opened his mouth to bite onto Su Ling's clothes, and then immediately flashed away using the Star Escape Technique.
Not long after Jiang Feng left, a behemoth over a kilometer long poked a terrifying and hideous head out of the sea.
It looked with confusion at the little spicy stick that had disappeared from the sea surface.
Why did it suddenly disappear?
Just now, it had been attracted by a little spicy stick flying on the sea surface and wanted to catch it to study, and maybe have a snack on the side.
Forget it, better to go find other behemoths to eat to repair its injuries.
It was none other than the kilometer-long behemoth, the Mosasaurus, which had previously been struck by the Dragon Kingdom's nuclear bomb. One-tenth of its head had been blown off, and other parts of its body had suffered large-area burns.
Fortunately, it had sensed the danger of the fireball in advance and submerged to the bottom of the sea; otherwise, it would have been killed instantly by that terrifying fireball.
It had felt for the first time that kind of terrifying power that could cause its death. Fortunately, its Physique was strong enough, and after escaping that area, its body was slowly recovering.
If it hadn't been severely injured, that little spicy stick just now would not have been able to escape. Right now, it couldn't even unleash huge waves.
It remembered that the direction from which the fireball had flown seemed to be that way, and the Mosasaurus turned its head to look in that direction.
Once its injuries recovered, it would definitely go over there to take a look.
Fifty kilometers away, Jiang Feng's figure appeared abruptly.
The threat that behemoth had just posed to him was far greater than the threat posed by the 200-meter behemoth he had encountered when he first went into the sea to chase the Eight-Headed Snake Monster.
How did he just casually encounter a behemoth over a kilometer long?
"Xiaobai, what's wrong?" Su Ling, who was being carried in his mouth, looked bewildered.
She had only just fallen from the sky with the fishing boat not long ago when Xiaobai returned to pick her up, followed by a dizzying spin, and then she didn't know what happened after that.
Jiang Feng didn't answer and used the Star Escape Technique again.
This time, Jiang Feng continued to escape for another fifty kilometers, already a hundred kilometers away from the kilometer-long behemoth.
Now it should be safe!
Jiang Feng's nervous mood eased slightly, and he put Su Ling down.
