Starting From Fooling the Elderly into Registering for a Cultivation Training Class

Chapter 78: The Pursuit at The Bottom of The Sea

Zhong Gufei took off his jacket and gripped his small iron hammer tightly. Then, with a small jump, he crossed the guardrail and jumped into the sea.

When he was younger, he could hold his breath for four to five minutes.

Now, after coming into contact with immortal cultivation, his physique had improved by leaps and bounds. He could hold his breath for half an hour without a problem.

As a sailor with more than 30 years of experience, Zhong Gufei’s swimming abilities were top-notch.

He jumped into the sea and opened his eyes. He saw what he thought was a whale.

Zhong Gufei’s pupils shrank. He was especially shocked.

The colossal shadow was not a whale but a massive creature that he had never seen before.

What is this??Zhong Gufei was utterly horrified.

There were rows of uneven spikes on this creature’s back.

It had hands and feet, and its tail was thick and long.

At first glance, it looked like an enlarged version of a lizard.

At the same time, Zhong Gufei was also very curious.

Very soon, he swam to the top of the strange creature’s head.

The creature’s eyes were closed. It looked like it was sleeping.

Zhong Gufei guessed that this creature was most likely hibernating in the deep sea and was washed here by the sea current.

If that was the case, they should not disturb it.

After all, they did not know anything about such unknown creatures. If they were extremely violent, everyone on the ferry would be in danger.

For safety’s sake, it was best not to move the ferry.

Thus, Zhong Gufei immediately swam towards the surface to inform the captain of the situation.

But right then, the giant creature’s eyes suddenly opened.

Its scarlet eyes looked ruthless, like cruel wild beasts.

Zhong Gufei, who was swimming upwards, felt his heart clench. He could not help but turn back for a look.

The giant creature was now watching him with hostility in its eyes.

Zhong Gufei suddenly had an ominous feeling.

I can’t be that unlucky, can I?

Because of this, Zhong Gufei sped up, distancing himself from this giant creature.

However, the giant creature’s eyes were locked on Zhong Gufei, as if it had treated him as its prey.

The giant creature swung its tail.

The massive water current was like a shockwave as it swept instantly towards Zhong Gufei.

Meanwhile…

The sea surface immediately became turbulent, and the ferry swayed left and right. It almost flipped over.

The captain and his co-captain stumbled back into the cockpit.

“Captain, what do we do now?” The co-captain looked pale, and he was especially flustered.

“What else can we do?” The captain clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. “We can only take a gamble.”

The co-captain understood what the captain meant. “Captain, what about him?”

“I can’t care for him now. There are dozens of people on the ship. We can’t just until we death.”

The captain had already hardened his heart, so the co-captain didn’t say anything else.

“Quickly check the oil pressure and whether the various circuits are functioning properly,” the captain ordered.

“Yes, Sir!”

At this moment, a warship suddenly appeared in the distance.

“Captain, the navy is here.”

“We’re saved.”

The co-captains eyes lit up. He was very agitated as if he had seen the light at the end of the tunnel.

The captain was equally agitated. He immediately sounded the horn and waited for the navy to arrive.

Under the sea.

Zhong Gufei was swept far away by the powerful current. Then, after stabilizing his body, he saw a giant creature charging towards him.

In an instant, a strong desire to live burst out of Zhong Gufei.

He knew very well that this creature was the ruler of the sea.

The longer he stayed, the more danger he would be in.

Thus, he used all his strength to desperately swim upwards.

He kicked his legs down and swiped with his hands. His body shot out like a cannonball.

He was getting closer and closer to the surface.

However, the giant creature wouldn’t let him escape so easily.

It opened its mouth and roared in the direction Zhong Gufei had fled.

The next moment, the currents in the sea became exceptionally unstable, as if it was warped.

Zhong Gufei was swept away again.

The giant creature immediately gave chase.

Zhong Gufei stabilized his body once again. When he saw the gigantic creature attacking him again, he instinctively swam backward without thinking.

He was even faster than ordinary motorboats, and he managed to dodge it safely.

However, the giant creature acted as if Zhong Gufei was its prey. It wouldn’t give up.

Thus, the giant creature swung its tail and charged toward Zhong Gufei once more.

…

In the capital.

“Sir, there’s a situation!” the female officer suddenly said.

The senior officer immediately came to her side.

“Sir, this monster in the Valley Sea suddenly swam towards the deep sea.” The female officer pointed at the red dot on the screen.

The senior officer smiled. “Isn’t it good that the monster is returning to the deep sea by itself?”

The female officer said solemnly, “Sir, this is an energy wave captured within a minute.

“After analyzing the data, I believe it is highly likely that this monster is enraged.”

“Enraged?” The senior officer was stunned. “What angered it?”

The female officer shook her head and analyzed, “The reason is unknown right now.

“However… the enraged monster’s emotions are very unstable. Although it is currently moving towards the deep sea, if it suddenly turns around, the consequences will be unimaginable.”

The senior officer looked grim. He rubbed his chin and stared at the rapidly moving red dot on the screen as if he were thinking about something.

“How is that ferry now?” asked the senior officer.

“The warship is escorting them back to the dock.”

“Check how many ships are now working in the Valley Sea.”

“There are eight of them.”

“Tell them to retreat to the dock immediately. From now on, seal off the Valley Sea.”

“Understood!”

“Xiao Hu, keep an eye on this monster. We must not let it harm the people of Xia Country.”

“Yes, Sir!”

…

At the bottom of the sea.

Zhong Gufei had been in the sea for more than twenty minutes now.

Behind him, the giant creature chased him relentlessly.

Although the giant creature could not catch up to him, he could not put a good distance between them either.

As time passed, Zhong Gufei felt his stamina slowly decreasing.

This situation was very bad.

Zhong Gufei looked back and estimated that the giant creature was less than fifty meters away.

He sighed inwardly.

If I knew this would happen, I wouldn’t have practiced the Disorder Splitting Wind Demonic Hammering Technique in the morning.

If my True Qi was full, shaking it off would be a piece of cake.

Zhong Gufei felt a little regretful, but there was nothing he could do. The matter had already happened, and he could only rely on himself to resolve it.

“No matter what, I have to return to the surface first. If this continues, I’ll suffocate to death before it catches up to me.”

Having decided, Zhong Gufei exerted all his strength and infused his last bit of True Qi into his legs.

Then, he kicked his legs down forcefully. Then, as if he was sitting on a rocket, he soon charged out of the surface.

Zhong Gufei took deep breaths as he surveyed his surroundings.

He was already in the deep. As far as he could see, there was only blue sky and blue sea.

At this moment, the giant creature followed.

Half of its body left the sea. A pair of large scarlet eyes glared at Zhong Gufei.

Zhong Gufei gripped the small iron hammer in his hand. “Don’t come over, or I’ll hammer you to death.”

At this point, there was nothing else he could do.

Since he could not escape, he could only face it.

The giant creature stared at him for a while, then suddenly opened its mouth and moved to bite him.
