CHAPTER 360: CHAPTER 360: SEA GIANT!

Swoosh!

The collision of metal and water echoed in his ears as a gigantic exotic fish swam past the front of the steel vehicle.

Very soon.

Baiyu realized the drawback of proceeding to the sixth layer in this way.

This vehicle hadn’t been modified.

Master Yi Xian’s vehicle was clearly a product of multiple upgrades, allowing it to traverse the water without obstacles.

The one Baiyu had stolen was just an ordinary vehicle.

It wasn’t even the latest model, and the pressure while moving underwater was immense.

"I can’t take it, Baiyu, I’m going to drown... glug glug glug..."

From the back seat.

A murmur came from Meng Siyu.

As she spoke, bubbles continuously streamed from her mouth, as if she were holding a large popsicle.

"Hold on for a bit, you’re a Tier Eight Martial Artist, can’t you hold your breath underwater for a few minutes?"

Baiyu was also feeling uncomfortable at this moment.

Water was flooding into the vehicle from the gaps, making breathing very difficult.

Even deep diving didn’t make one this uncomfortable; next time he drove in the water, an oxygen tank was a must.

He grumbled in his heart.

The distance from the fifth layer to the sixth layer was only about a hundred meters on the outside.

Though the vehicle was old.

At least the magic kinetic engine hadn’t shown any problems.

As time passed, the light curtain appeared again in their view.

Crack... crack...

However.

Just as they were approaching the sixth layer’s spiritual array light curtain.

The vehicle’s magic kinetic engine suddenly stopped and exploded with a boom in the water, sending the hood flying high.

It died then and there!

Seeing this, Baiyu was almost infuriated to the point of cursing.

Why break down now of all times!

"What now, Baiyu? My blood qi is already 70-80% depleted, and the water pressure here is too great. If we stay any longer, we’ll definitely feed the fish."

Meng Siyu gasped out in bubbles.

Although martial artists were extraordinary, they still seemed insignificant and humble in the face of terrifying natural forces.

It’s not unusual even to perish.

"Hang on."

Baiyu circulated his blood qi throughout his body, with drops of liquid blood qi exploding from the central hub and traveling rapidly through his bloodstream, turning into purest blood energy, which he injected into the vehicle’s magic kinetic engine.

Just like a heart pumping blood.

Baiyu’s entire body was now a massive converter, continuously transforming blood energy to inject into the vehicle, allowing the cold metal machine to start operating.

Buzz...

After a moment of silence, the vehicle continued to part the water, heading towards the light curtain.

Baiyu emitted a red gas all over his body, from a distance looking like his skin was oozing blood.

"It’s moving, it’s moving, glug glug!"

Meng Siyu exclaimed, her large eyes shining with dazzling light: "We’re saved."

"Shut up, woman!"

Their voices, under the water, clearly reached each other’s ears.

Meng Siyu shut her mouth tightly, watching Baiyu, who was enveloped in blood energy, and assumed he was using some kind of body-damaging secret technique.

Indeed, Baiyu looked quite terrifying at the moment!

After watching for a while, the joy on her face instantly disappeared, and her chestnut-colored pupils couldn’t help but constrict rapidly.

In the distance on the seabed, there was a giant with bluish-green skin and long whiskers stretching several dozen meters.

Unlike the Corpse Giant.

This giant was much larger, at least ten or even dozens of times the size of the Corpse Giant.

The visible part of its body already exceeded a hundred meters.

And that was just a small portion!

The enormous shark-toothed exotic beasts in the sea beside it looked like tiny shrimp.

The giant was draped in seaweed, aquatic plants, like a massive aquatic monster, striding forward, and there seemed to be a person standing on its right shoulder.

Although Meng Siyu couldn’t see clearly, she was sure.

That was a person!

A man standing on the giant’s shoulder!

"Baiyu, look over there..."

"I know, shut up, don’t make a sound."

Baiyu inwardly cursed at this moment.

The Corpse Giant was already formidable enough; this gigantic green-skinned giant must be invincible?

Its enormous body couldn’t even fit in the underground world of Zenith City.

Was this the monster that breached Zenith City...?

Baiyu seemed to have found the reason for Zenith City’s downfall; a terrifying giant like this was nothing short of an ultimate battle weapon.

Moreover.

This giant evidently had intelligence.

It had noticed the vehicle!

Although to it, this was akin to a speck of dust.

Baiyu’s heart pounded wildly.

At the instant the giant’s gaze swept over him, he felt like his soul was about to shatter, like an ocean aggressively pressing down on him.

This was undoubtedly a creature beyond the grandmaster level!

With this realization, Baiyu channeled all his blood energy into the vehicle without regard for cost, and the magic kinetic engine began to operate at full capacity.

The steel vehicle transformed into a swimming fish, quickly breaking through the water, heading towards the protective light curtain of the sixth layer’s spiritual array.

"Once we get near the light curtain, you jump straight inside. When we were at the fifth layer’s parking lot, the spiritual array light curtain had already recorded our information; it won’t stop you."

Baiyu controlled the vehicle to race towards the light curtain as he spoke rapidly.

"What about you?"

Meng Siyu’s eyes were filled with urgency; she already saw the gigantic green-skinned giant starting to move.

The opponent swung a palm forward.

It blotted out the sky and covered the sun.

The water swirled into gigantic vortices, with waves rippling outward layer by layer.

Any shark-toothed or sea king-type exotic beasts caught by the palm were instantly turned into a mist of blood.

"I have a way to escape, don’t worry about me."

Baiyu was naturally aware of the incoming attack from the giant; he clenched his teeth, and blood energy erupted.

One second, three seconds, five seconds!

As the vehicle touched the light curtain, Meng Siyu rolled out of the vehicle, getting slammed into the light curtain like a ball by the vehicle body.

Splash... bang!

She landed on the ground of the sixth layer, soaked, with her clothes plastered to her body, her long hair loose.

Baiyu had used the vehicle to push her in.

As if sensing something.

Meng Siyu looked up.

Outside the spiritual array light curtain, adorned with resplendent runes.

The giant green hand stirred up terrifying waves, slamming into the vehicle.

Then the seaweed-covered fingers curled.

Crack... crack.

The sound of metal being crushed echoed.

The vehicle was squeezed into a small iron sheet in the giant’s hand, everything inside shattered to pieces.

"Baiyu..."

Meng Siyu’s eyes widened, her nose tingled, and she murmured with a sob, feeling no post-survival joy.

Splash!

While she was lost in despair.

There came another sound of water breaking overhead, sprinkling droplets on her face.

Looking up.

Baiyu, drenched, stood on the empty ground in front of her, spitting out seawater.

"You... you’re not dead?!!"

Meng Siyu shrieked with delight.

"Yeah, lucky to have escaped this time."

Baiyu breathed a quiet sigh of relief.

If it weren’t for the Suffering Paperman given to him by the Third Prince, it would have been truly dangerous this time.

At that moment, he had to send Meng Siyu in first and then use the Suffering Paperman to lock onto her.

When facing the fatal attack, he instantly swapped places with the paperman.

This way.

Both of them survived!

If he were alone, he certainly wouldn’t have escaped the giant’s clutches.

This time.

The gamble paid off!
