CHAPTER 761: CHAPTER 472: DEEP SEA GIANT DEVOURING DEMON

Ripples of void appeared in the sky above the sea, as Ji Xinghuo leapt out from its midst and immediately activated the invisibility of the Deception Mask, hovering motionless in mid-air.

"That was close!"

Only at this moment did Ji Xinghuo’s face finally reveal a trace of horror.

The duration of the Void Cage was six seconds, and the Star Realm Jump was completed just one second before it ended. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

However, he had not completely escaped danger yet.

For the Emperor Thunder Snake, a distance of 5000 kilometers was not far; it was chasing at full force with "Lightning and Thunder," and it could catch up in less than a minute, but only if it could lock onto his position.

"I can’t use Electromagnetic Induction anymore," said Ji Xinghuo as he converged his aura, with a faint flicker at the edge of his right eye’s pupil.

He kept the Myriad Phenomena active!

The next ten seconds were safe.

The danger warning from the Wanxiang Star Pupil also dropped to a lower level, which indicated that the Emperor Thunder Snake couldn’t track the jump; it had lost its lock on him.

"One last jump," Ji Xinghuo muttered as he activated the Star Realm Jump.

During this period of 73 Star Time, he still had about 1500 kilometers left to jump, so he might as well use it all up.

The shorter the jump distance, the quicker the completion.

A few seconds later...

Ji Xinghuo re-entered the jump channel, the scenery before his eyes shifting, appearing above the sea area over 1500 kilometers away.

The sense of danger and urgency dropped a bit again.

"This should be beyond the Sea Abyss domain of the Emperor Thunder Snake," Ji Xinghuo opened the map to take a look. However, he didn’t fully trust the map information; the so-called "restricted area" was arbitrarily set by humans, which meant nothing to the Emperor Thunder Snake.

And he had annoyed it; it might relentlessly pursue him.

The very thought of being caught up by the Emperor Thunder Snake made Ji Xinghuo’s scalp tingle, and he immediately flew northeast at full speed.

Rumbling...

He entered the Star Realm Supersonic, racing through the high skies, with the loud sounds of sonic booms echoing over the sea surface.

The Myriad Phenomena stayed activated.

In Ji Xinghuo’s sight, streams of light flickered, constantly displaying all possible occurrences in the next ten seconds.

Foreseeing ten seconds was his ultimate confidence.

If the Emperor Thunder Snake caught up, he would immediately release the "Dark Domain" to disrupt its Electromagnetic Induction, then enter his Dark Avatar, hiding within the Dark Domain to avoid a frontal confrontation with the Emperor Thunder Snake.

Jiu You emerged from the Supreme Dark Magic Ball, merging into his body. Ji Xinghuo’s eyes and skin glowed with a ghostly light.

Suddenly, a Shadow Clone was created.

This Shadow Clone, which had about 70% of the original’s strength, was powered with roughly 30,000 points of Star Power. After it formed, it immediately flew to the left and vanished into the horizon.

Ji Xinghuo himself continued to fly.

A few minutes later, the King of Annihilation absorbed Dark Energy to recover his Star Power and created a second Shadow Clone, which flew to the right.

Every three minutes or so, a Shadow Clone appeared.

In less than half an hour, the number of Shadow Clones reached their limit of eight. They scattered, heading in different directions. Some returned to the jump landing point, hiding in the air as sentries to watch for the appearance of the Emperor Thunder Snake;

some lurked at the bottom of the sea, some hid high in the air, or flew at full speed as decoys, jointly forming a defense line.

If the Emperor Thunder Snake caught up, they would definitely know.

However, after fleeing more than ten thousand kilometers, Ji Xinghuo had long left that sea region’s restricted area, and the Emperor Thunder Snake had not shown up.

Each Shadow Clone was safe and unharmed.

"It didn’t follow?"

Ji Xinghuo was somewhat puzzled, yet it seemed normal.

The Emperor Thunder Snake’s "Lightning and Thunder" was fast, but it was fruitless if it couldn’t find him. That was probably its weakness, lacking the ability for spatial Perception and tracking, but even with this knowledge, he dared not entertain the thought of confronting a Destructive Level beast.

Until the third day.

Starting from the first Star Realm Jump, more than 73 Star Time had passed, Ji Xinghuo immediately jumped twice more, crossing ten thousand kilometers.

"Should be safe now."

Ji Xinghuo took out the map, noting he was now over forty thousand kilometers away from the domain of the Emperor Thunder Snake.

The Wanxiang Star Pupil no longer showed any danger warnings.

"Thankfully, it was just a fright," sighed Ji Xinghuo in relief and dissolved all eight scattered Shadow Clones.

A dark golden light flew out, revealing the form of Doomsday.

Doomsday’s eyes still showed residual horror. Although it was an Annihilation Dragon, its current strength was far less than that of the Emperor Thunder Snake. This encounter had terrified it. Ji Xinghuo comforted it briefly, then said,

"Continue forward."

He mounted on the back of Doomsday, pointing forward.

In the interface of the Wanxiang Star Pupil, that arrow had been magnified several times, showing a remaining distance of about eighty thousand kilometers— not much farther now.

With no threats remaining, Ji Xinghuo was in no hurry to travel. He used Electromagnetic Induction to scan the surroundings for monsters and soon encountered a group of Dark Tide Manic Sharks, which he bypassed to attack and harvested over ten thousand points of Spiritual Origin Ability.

While advancing, he kept hunting.

A hurricane enveloped the sea ahead, but Ji Xinghuo did not hesitate, allowing Doomsday to fly directly into it.

The weather in the Sea Abyss changed rapidly; storms came and went quickly, generally posing no danger.

However, this time was different.

"Sea monsters?"

Through Electromagnetic Induction, he detected a huge monster.

Getting within dozens of kilometers, in the center of the storm at sea, tentacles long and thick whipped about, entwining a giant creature resembling a sea turtle, fiercely battling and causing huge waves, with roars piercing through the storm, causing air to tremble.

"So it’s the Rock Turtle and the Deep Sea Giant Devouring Demon," Ji Xinghuo recognized the two monsters, having seen them before.
