The Thunder God Novel - Chapter 88

Chapter 88 Rumbling Lake Water (Part 2)
Zhong Geng also commanded the boats to row into the distance. This level of damage was enough. Even though it was bloody and weak, it was absolutely unwise to continue fighting. Especially for beasts that were on the verge of death. They were the most ferocious. Without a 100% chance, it was better to avoid them.

The small boat quickly brought XinFeng to the side of the big ship. XinFeng jumped onto the big ship and came to Zhong Geng’s side. He said, “We just need to wait. There’s no need to continue.”

Zhong Geng nodded and said, “That’s right, let it weaken. We’ll see what happens then.”

When the signal was sent, all the fishermen and servants heaved a sigh of relief. They had witnessed the ferocity of the Lake Star Python and were scared out of their wits. If it weren’t for their strong desire to survive, they would have collapsed long ago. When they received the order, their limbs would be weak and they would have tried their best to sail far away from the Lake Star Python.

The Lake Star Python churned in the lake water. Large traces of blood fainted in the water and continued to bleed, causing the ferocious beast to gradually lose its strength. It suddenly dived down.

A fisherman cried out in alarm, “Ah, it’s missing … No, it’s diving!”

XinFeng said, “It can’t escape anymore. If it dived away from the beginning, we wouldn’t be able to do anything about it. But at this time, hehe, there shouldn’t be a chance.”

As the water pressure increased, the Lake Star Python lost more blood, so it wouldn’t last long and would float up again.

Zhong Geng was very experienced. He said, “Spread out and see if there are any of our people in the water. Send two small boats. Spread out the other boats for me. Don’t gather together!”

Lei Xingfeng stood at the bow of the boat and looked down at the water. The water here was extremely clear, and one could see very deep underwater. However, it was completely impossible now, because the entire surface of the water was dyed black with blood.

Zhong Geng also came to Lei Xingfeng’s side. He looked down and said, “I didn’t expect this Lake Star Python to be so powerful. Haha, it’s a pity that there’s so much Lake Star Python blood.”

Lei Xingfeng said, “Yes, this is only a trace of the Star Python’s bloodline. I really don’t know how powerful the Star Python is.”

Zhong Geng couldn’t help but shake his head and said, “That’s not something we can deal with, nor can we imagine.” The name of the Star Python was known to all cultivators. One of the Star Python’s skins was recorded in large and medium-sized sects. There were also many Star Python drums used for testing, especially the Star Python drums. Basically, every cultivator knew another thing. That was that the Star Python could not see it at all. It was said that this ferocious beast had long been extinct.

Boom!

The Lake Star Python flew up from the water. Its body was still stuck with dense harpoon crossbow arrows. The blood sprayed out from its body. Just as it emerged, it once again dived into the water.

Lei Xingfeng said, “Let the boat go back. It’s useless for them to stay here. Once they get hit by the Lake Star Python, they’re finished.”

Zhong Geng nodded and said, “Alright!” He immediately ordered the small boats to return, leaving behind only the large ship they were on, and the other large ship to stay far away from this place.

The fishermen on the boat seemed to have been granted amnesty. All of them immediately became energetic as they paddled crazily. Even the fishermen on the side of the boat found wooden boards and paddled desperately, hoping that the boat would leave this place of death as soon as possible.

Lei Xingfeng sighed and said, “They’re scared.”

Zhong Geng nodded and said, “Yes, we have no choice but to provoke the Lake Star Python. Once we provoke it, killing it is the safest option. A Lake Star Python that has malicious intentions towards humans will be doomed to ruin.”

Lei Xingfeng nodded. He knew that if the Lake Star Python escaped, once it survived, it would definitely retaliate crazily. The fishermen here would be miserable. They had no way to deal with such a huge Lake Star Python.

Boom!

The Lake Star Python appeared a thousand meters away again. It was obvious that its aura had weakened. It was a bit less violent and a bit more weak. Then, it dived into the water again.

Wu Zhen smiled and said, “I can feel its weakness. Haha, we will definitely win this time.”

Lei Xingfeng said, “There’s still some trouble. I guess we’ll have to wait until tomorrow at least. Today … shouldn’t be enough unless we launch another attack.”

Zhong Geng shook his head and said, “Forget it, there’s no need to hit me anymore. My arm is swollen. Today, I threw at least a hundred harpoons. I’m tired to death.” As he spoke, he gently pounded his right arm with his left hand, looking very helpless.

Boom!

The Lake Star Python rushed out of the water again. Suddenly, it spat out countless water arrows, carrying countless thick electric currents.

Zhong Geng said, “Fortunately … Fortunately, we have always used harpoons and crossbow arrows. We didn’t use any skills to hit it. Sigh, this kind of attack is useless against us, but the others are in a terrible situation. As long as we come here, one of them will probably die.”

Lei Xingfeng said, “The reason why the Lake Star Python doesn’t use its instinct to attack is because it’s not easy to store energy. Haha, when it wants to use it, it can’t find its enemy.”

Wu Zhen said, “Fortunately, I shot it blind first!”

Lei Xingfeng said, “This is the habit of hunters there, especially against powerful wild beasts. The first thing we do is to blind them. If we succeed, the hunt will basically be successful.”

The Lake Star Python flew out of the water again and again. Its aura was getting weaker and weaker. Gradually, it could no longer dive deeper and could only swim forward. Obviously, it had lost its direction and was only spinning randomly on the surface of the lake.

Zhong Geng carefully commanded the ship to follow behind him. The two were several hundred meters apart. He did not dare to get too close. He just hung behind him and waited for the Lake Star Python to lose its strength.

Someone came up and said, “The food is ready. Do you want to eat now?”

With that, XinFeng bellowed like a drum. He said, “Damn, I’m starving. Damn it, I haven’t eaten all day long. Hurry up and set it up. Oh right, boil a pot of prawns in white water for me! En, just add some salt. Don’t put anything else in. I’ll just point at the prawns and eat.”

The servant quickly placed a low table on the bow of the boat and placed a few bowls of boiled fish. The so-called boiled fish was boiled fish in white water with some salt. If the fish was fresh, it would be fine. If it wasn’t fresh, the fishy smell would definitely be unbearable to Lei Xingfeng. He began to miss Jin Dapang. If this fellow was here, he believed that he would be able to eat wonderful food.

Fish, shrimp, and some pickled vegetables. Lei Xingfeng was already very hungry, and he was no longer picky about food. He ate rice in large mouthfuls. The most satisfying thing here was the rice. It tasted very good. Even if there were no vegetables, it could be eaten free. It was too sweet.

Zhong Geng and Wu Zhen were both people who had not advanced to the next level, and they were all at a particularly edible stage.

One ate faster than the other, one more edible. The servants beside them were all dumbfounded. A bucket of rice was simply not enough. Another bucket of rice was served, but they still finished it. In the end, four buckets of rice were served. The fish and shrimp had already been eaten, and before they could cook, they served pickled vegetables. The three of them still ate sweetly.

Lei Xingfeng put down the big wooden bowl, touched his stomach and said, “I’m finally full. Sigh, this thing isn’t enough.” He still liked to eat wild beef. Unfortunately, in order to store more treasures in the Ancient Lun Treasury, he had abandoned all the meat he had prepared before. Otherwise, he would have meat to eat.

Zhong Geng said, “It’s fine. When we return this time, I’ll send someone to buy some meat.”

This place also had meat, but they were all domestic animals, not wild beasts. They were inferior to fish in the lake. XinFeng shook his head and said, “Forget it, you don’t need to prepare them specially. You can eat fish.”

Wu Zhen smiled and said, “I think … the Lake Star Python’s meat should be very good.”

Boom!

The Lake Star Python suddenly straightened its front body and smashed into the lake water again. It was obviously unable to swim anymore and slowly twitched in the lake water. Countless lightning bolts spread out.

XinFeng was pleasantly surprised, “It won’t work anymore!”

Wu Zhen said, “Well, it’s not as long as I thought.”

Zhong Geng said, “It’s getting dark. Shall we go up and take a look?”

Lei Xingfeng shook his head and said, “No need. Tomorrow, it will be dead. There is no need to take risks at this time. You are not afraid. Your subordinates are terrifying. Haha.”

The surrounding fishermen showed expressions of gratitude. If Zhong Geng gave the order, they would be unable to resist. They could only execute it. If the Lake Star Python died, it would be fine. If they faked their deaths and launched the final attack, the cultivators would be fine and they would be finished.

Zhong Geng thought for a moment and said, “Alright, I’m in a hurry. Let’s wait for one night. It shouldn’t last until tomorrow.”

Lei Xingfeng said, “Arrange a vigil. I’m going to cultivate.”

Zhong Geng said, “You don’t need to worry about this. Wu Zhen will arrange a clean room.”

Wu Zhen invited Lei Xingfeng into the cabin.

This was a very small room. XinFeng didn’t care about it. He just needed to sit down. After Wu Zhen left, he immediately started cultivating. After half a day of battle, he urgently needed to cultivate and reflect. This was the method that Old Man Lei Bao taught him to review battles.

XinFeng had been cultivating very hard ever since he reached Milun Master. With his aptitude, once he cultivated with all his strength, that round of strength would increase rapidly. It would take about 100,000 rounds of strength for a Milun Master to advance to Milun Master. However, the advancement of a Milun Master was completely different.

To advance to the next level, a Milun Master needed to condense his true body. Once he succeeded, he would become a Milun Master. This was an earth-shaking change. To condense a ring of true body, it would require at least a million Lun Force. Many people were stuck in this step, unable to accumulate that much Lun Force until they died.

This was related to talent and potential. Those with excellent potential could increase their Lunli by tens of thousands in a single day, while those with poor potential could only increase their Lunli by a dozen in a single day. The gap between them was simply too great.

The most deadly thing was a checkpoint, The advancement of Milun Master to Milun Adept involved a process from quantitative to qualitative change. Therefore, only quantity was not enough, and the quality of Lun Li needed to be changed in order to advance smoothly. Lei Xingfeng had a deep understanding of this. After all, the grandfather of a super expert was different from ordinary cultivators. He knew more, had a deeper understanding, and had more reasonable methods.
