Chapter 323 Leviathan

It was a spirit beast that looked like a whale. Why did I say it looked like a whale? It was because the beast looked too scary.

Even the part of him that was exposed above the sea was several hundred meters high. The entire body of the giant beast was black.

The people on the deck couldn't see how long it was, but it must be at least a thousand meters long! This didn't even include the other party's body hidden in the seabed.

Of course, it's OK if it's big, but...

"Crack, click, click!"

There was a sound as if something was being chewed, and Ao Hongchen's eyes became solemn, because the tens of thousands of giant swords he had just sent out were actually bitten in Leviathan's mouth and chewed like food.

Yes, tens of thousands of giant swords attacking from all angles were caught by the opponent's mouth, and not a single one was missed.

Because this giant beast has many mouths all over its body, each of which is tens of meters in size, full of sharp teeth, and in each big mouth is biting his sharp sword.

The thousand-meter-long giant sword that he condensed was now in the huge mouth of the giant beast. He kept thrusting the sword into its mouth, leaving only the hilt outside.

"What the hell is this?!"

In mid-air, Makino saw the clearest, because he was in mid-air and at a certain distance from the Xingluo, so he saw the whole process completely.

Just now, when Leviathan leaped into the sky and smashed down, he saw the entire size of this giant beast. The overall length was several thousand meters long, and the height was definitely over a thousand meters. The most important thing was that this giant beast was covered with eyes.

Yes, it was an eye! Makino was sure that he was not seeing things!
However, when Ao Hongchen launched the attack, the eyes on Leviathan suddenly opened as wide as possible and turned into a mouth! It took all of Ao Hongchen's giant swords.

Can eyes and mouths be interchangeable? Even the legendary evil-eyed tyrants are not so evil!

Especially now, Makino could clearly see that some mouths turned into eyes again after swallowing the giant sword, while some still maintained the appearance of mouths.

(For details, please refer to the final boss in the Digimon reboot: Abaddonmon (Negativemon). It just looks like a whale.)
Is this the true appearance of this soul beast? It looks like a deep-sea demon whale, but its body is covered with mouths and eyes! Even if its bloodline mutated, it wouldn't look like this.

"But it's nothing to be afraid of!"

So what if the opponent can devour energy attacks? Their Body Sect relies on their bodies to fight. And looking at the appearance of Leviathan, although it seems to have swallowed Ao Hongchen's attack, it seems to be very reluctant.

Rather, it is more like a ferocious beast that is over 200,000 years old, and can actually withstand the attack from Ao Hongchen, who has the strength of a demigod. This is enough to make it proud.

"If you retreat now, I can spare your lives. Otherwise, you will all stay."

Ao Hongchen flew into the air, and his demigod-level aura pressed directly towards the sea. He did not take the initiative, and the previous attack did not kill Leviathan, so the other party would definitely be on guard against him next time, and would not jump out of the sea casually again.

If he continued to fight, Ao Hongchen was confident that he could kill the beasts here, but that was only on the premise that he was alone. If he really pushed the other party into a desperate situation, they might want to drag the people on the cruise ship to be buried with them.

At least in Ao Hongchen's opinion, given Leviathan's huge size, it would not be difficult for it to overturn the giant ship if it did not care about its own life. Or if it self-destructed before dying, it would definitely affect the giant ship.

Leviathan's multiple eyes looked at Ao Hongchen, and then it let out a roar, and the surrounding sea water began to gather towards it.

"Want to take action!" Makino sneered, and the giant blade in his hand flashed red.

"Wait." Ao Hongchen stretched out his hand to stop him, "The other party doesn't seem to have any intention of launching an attack."

"Leviathan, you!!"

At this time, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King let out a roar, because it discovered that Leviathan was actually devouring the corpses of soul beasts in the sea!
That was in the battle just now, when a large number of sea soul beasts were killed, including some human soul masters. After all, neither side had any intention of holding back, so casualties were naturally inevitable.

At this moment, Leviathan opened its big mouth, and the tentacles of the octopus beast that were cut off by Cai Yue'er, the soul rings and corpses that emerged from the dead soul beasts, as well as the mecha parts and battle armor parts on the soul masters were swallowed equally.

“Here’s the reward!”

Leviathan glanced at the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, and then swam towards the depths of the sea. It had no sense of companionship.

To it, all sea soul beasts were food. It came to participate in this war just to devour as many soul beasts and human corpses as possible.

Now that Ao Hongchen has taken action, it seems that it can no longer fight. Although it seemed to have easily taken Ao Hongchen's attack just now, its body has already suffered considerable damage, and it is really not suitable to fight again now.

It was just a ferocious beast that was just over 200,000 years old, and Ao Hongchen was a demigod. If they really fought, it would definitely be killed by Ao Hongchen. It still had huge potential that had not been developed, and it didn't want to die young.

Moreover, even though the Demon Soul Great White Shark King screamed so loudly, it should also want to devour the corpses of the soul beasts to recover from its injuries. It knew the nature of this soul beast very well.

"One day, sooner or later, I will eat you all." Leviathan glanced at the octopus beast and the two hundred thousand year old soul beasts, then swam towards the deep sea without looking back.

The deep sea is the safest place. Even Ao Hongchen will never dive there easily.

"Retreat!" A roar of reluctance sounded. The giant octopus swung its eight legs violently, and a thick black smoke burst out from its body, covering up all the air.

Muye and Ao Hongchen were suspended in the air, with no intention of chasing.

In the sea, the sea soul beasts that were previously full of energy quickly sank into the water and disappeared without a trace in an instant like the receding tide.

The thick black fog lasted for a long time before slowly dispersing. The sea became quiet again, and cheers rang out from the two large ships.

"You have to give me an explanation later." Ao Hongchen glanced at Muye, and then disappeared.

"You old man, when I brought food to Lufa, I didn't see you asking for the truth, but now you've turned your back on me so quickly."

Muye said with dissatisfaction. When he was training Tang Wulin, he would bring a special sea soul beast to help him replenish his body after each training. He also prepared some of these things for Lufa.

After all, they are all his disciples, so he can't be partial to one over the other! As a result, when he brought it to him for the first time, Ao Hongchen checked it and found that it was a good thing, so he accepted it as a gift. But now that something went wrong, the old man turned his face and refused to acknowledge him.

"But at least it left a legacy for the Body Sect."

Although Tang Wulin had no intention of betraying the Tang Sect, he still called him Master. If they hadn't been in decline for too long, Muye wouldn't have been so desperate. He just wanted to leave a legacy for the Body Sect.

Makino threw the giant blade in his right hand and it turned into a red mecha again, easily tearing open a space crack and disappearing without a trace. He himself also turned back to his original size, and no one knew how he did it, but he put on a clean white chef's robe again.

"A bad old man."

Muye said something dissatisfied, shook his body, and disappeared without a trace as if he had merged into the void. "Na'er, Xiaoyan, are you okay?" Nan Fusheng asked the two.

"fine."

"Brother Fusheng, don't worry."

Xu Xiaoyan and Na'er both said something.

“Hey, there’s me too! You heartless thing!” Fors said dissatisfiedly.

"You." Nan Fusheng glanced at her. "You have been acting as a magic turret in the back, how could you be injured?"

"Is this the same? Can't you just care about me?"

"Oh, so you're not hurt?"

"You're just telling me now, are you just trying to fool me?" →_→

"Then, I won't urge you to practice anymore?"

"I forgive you!"
"I was just joking, but you took it seriously."

Listening to the bickering between Nan Fusheng and Fors, Xu Xiaoyan and Na'er couldn't help but laugh, and their mood suddenly relaxed.

A headcount is now being taken on board to confirm whether there have been any casualties.

The inventory of the entire ship was quickly completed. Under the protection of the large ship and the powerful men, only a small number of people were slightly injured, and the death toll did not exceed ten. Those were the unlucky ones who were attacked by the sea soul beasts.

Fortunately, some key personnel did not die, which will not affect this exchange activity.

As for who attracted the sea soul beast? This matter was destined to be left unresolved. The ship soon resumed its voyage.

After Nan Fusheng and his colleagues finished counting the entire ship, they returned to the third deck, where the chefs were preparing breakfast again.

"Na'er, don't you want to go see Wulin?" At the dinner table, Nan Fusheng said kindly as he looked at Na'er who was eating without restraint.

"No." Na'er shook her head, and Gu Yue's figure appeared in her mind. "Brother doesn't look seriously injured, and there will be others to take care of him."

As she spoke, Na'er began to eat again. She seemed not to be as concerned about Tang Wulin's situation as before.

"Really?" Nan Fusheng nodded and said nothing more. Among the four of them, only Na'er, the big eater, was not full. The others had basically finished eating before the attack.

"That Leviathan guy is still standing still. Is he digesting the food and healing his wounds?" After a little sensing, Nan Fusheng relied on his sensing ability of his clone to immediately sense Leviathan's current location.

It was still staying where the battle had just taken place and had not left.

"It must be hiding deep in the sea to heal its wounds. After all, it took a strong blow from Ao Hongchen just now."

"But I didn't expect that Leviathan would have come here."

Nan Fusheng was a little surprised to encounter Leviathan in the ocean, but not too much. After all, only in this vast ocean could his two Chimera soul beast clones grow rapidly.

Because this place is far from the mainland, there is no need to worry about disturbing humans. The downside is that it is full of dangers.

Fortunately, his two clones have grown up. Although they are still dangerous, they are at least within the tolerable range.

The giant beast Leviathan, this clone also belongs to a special type of soul beast clone.

Unlike Augustus, Leviathan evolved completely from the perspective of a war machine. In the process of continuous devouring, it began to evolve at a strange angle.

Yes, weird! It didn't evolve any weird abilities. From the beginning to the end, Leviathan only had one ability, which was its mouth, a mouth that swallowed everything.

The Chimera Soul Beast is a very complex creature. Because it has no fixed route, it basically relies on devouring different soul beasts to evolve itself, so each Chimera Soul Beast looks different.

Just like Augustus, who was originally a good giant octopus, evolved directly into an octopus with a human body and an octopus head.

Recently, Nan Fusheng paid some attention to it when he was free, and found that Augustus swallowed some weird thing and actually grew a pair of wings for himself. This time, he can't escape the title of the evil god of Cthulhu.

The same is true for Leviathan. During its evolution, it abandoned other abilities and only developed its own devouring ability. To this end, it also used its own characteristics to constantly look for specific soul beasts to devour.

In order to facilitate swallowing, it has evolved a large number of mouths. In order to better find prey and avoid powerful opponents in the dangerous sea, it has evolved a large number of eyes.

At the same time, in order to avoid having obvious weak points, its eyes and mouth have become the same organ. In other words, its eyes are its mouth.

And its huge size evolved so that it can better store energy.

Just like that, a strange-looking giant beast, Leviathan, officially appeared.

Nan Fusheng originally wanted to name it Beelzebub, which means gluttony, but it ended up naming itself Leviathan.

Nan Fusheng initially considered his sea soul beast clones as life energy collectors. However, after seeing Leviathan's performance today, Nan Fusheng had a new idea in his mind.

"It is already a fierce beast now. Perhaps in the future it will have the potential to become a god. With its full-point devouring skill, it has a clear advantage in digestion and growth speed."

His eyes flickered slightly, and Nan Fusheng looked at the scenery outside the window, shook his head, and didn't think about it anymore. After all, that was a matter for the future, so for now, let it go with the flow and let them develop on their own.

There were no more accidents during the rest of the journey and both ships sailed smoothly.

However, Nan Fusheng discovered something strange.

That was Gu Yue's attitude towards Tang Wulin, which had changed significantly. She seemed to care about him, but sometimes she became cold, just like the face-changing in Sichuan Opera.

"Did the fusion of the Tyrannosaurus Rex spirit and Tang Wulin stimulate her?"
