Chapter 473: Chapter 447: The Second Divine Creature
On the fourth day in the alternate world, as evening approached.
Chen Shouyi’s luck finally turned.
...
This is a large island covering thousands of square kiloters.
By the side of a lake on flatland, a large tribe of two to three thousand people resided.
The sun was setting in the west, and the male hunters of the tribe were returning with their prey. Nurous naked children were running around the hunting party, and the entire tribe was filled with laughter and joy.
This was the largest tribe Chen Shouyi had seen in the past few days.
A dense Domain of Faith enveloped this half-kiloter radius.
Chen Shouyi had seen a True God’s Domain of Faith before, and he could clearly discern the difference between the Domain of Faith of Divine Creatures and a True God, akin to the difference between a faint moonlight and the blazing sun.
This place evidently belonged to the forr.
However, he did not see any totems around.
Perhaps they were out hunting, or maybe...
His gaze swept over the Barbarians, finally resting on the lake.
There it was!
In fact, he had already seen nurous winding traces along the lake shore, similar to the ones left by giant snakes slithering by.
Without a doubt, it was a Giant Beast shaped like a serpent.
From the tracks, the estimated thickness was about two ters, but the length was indeterminable.
He waited silently for over two hours, and the sky grew dark, but the totem never showed up.
Who knows how long it would be before it erged!
If it took ten days or half a month, he didn’t have that kind of ti.
Not hesitating any longer, to be safe, he wolfed down a few pounds of Divine Flesh, instructed the Shell Lady to hide far away, and then quickly transford after taking off his clothes.
These few days of success had built up quite a bit of confidence in him, and even if the opponent was in the water, he believed they couldn’t harm him.
A massive body erged from the hill and started running, the ground shaking violently, trees blocking his path were directly knocked into the air, tumbling as they went.
Nurous Barbarians fled in terror in all directions.
The calm lake trembled incessantly.
Suddenly, a vortex ford at the bottom of the lake, and in the next mont, a ferocious head burst through the surface.
It looked like a dragon from mythology—not a Western dragon, but an Eastern dragon, with a serpent-like winding body, covered in silver-white scales, with sharp twin horns on its head.
Except for lacking claws and so differences in details, it was extrely similar to the Great Xia Country’s mythological dragon.
Of course, only similar.
It saw the giant running swiftly down the hill as if facing a formidable foe, roaring angrily, emitting powerful waves of energy that even caused dreadful changes in the surrounding weather, with white clouds in the sky rapidly transforming, rolling continuously, appearing and disappearing suddenly.
The air temperature rapidly dropped to freezing, countless snowflakes drifted down from above, and a thin layer of ice quickly ford over the lake.
However, seeing the imposing giant, it showed fear at heart, only staying in the lake and roaring loudly, not daring to go ashore. As the island’s ruler, it hadn’t been in a battle in quite so ti.
Spending every day dozing at the lake’s bottom, it didn’t bother anyone nor was it disturbed, yet it awakened to calamity descending.
A distance of one or two kiloters vanished in a breath.
Chen Shouyi casually uprooted a twenty-ter-high tree, hurling it fiercely towards the giant serpent in the lake’s center.
"Boom!"
The tree bood with a sonic explosion, its leaves shredded to pieces by intense air currents as it roared towards the Giant Beast.
The serpent’s scales stood upright, its head shifting slightly to dodge the tree, not even able to catch its breath.
Then it saw the giant wading through the water towards the lake’s center.
For a mont, the lake waters surged as if countless depth charges had been tossed in, with nurous dead fish surfacing, their bellies upturned.
Chen Shouyi ran a dozen steps, feeling reassured.
He realized the lake wasn’t deep; after covering a third of the distance, it barely reached his knees. Being seventeen ters tall, it was only around five ters deep, and the lake’s overall depth seed no more than ten ters.
Driven to this point, the Divine Creature finally couldn’t hold back.
Its eyes were filled with fury, head raised, spewing terrible cold breath as its massive body slithered forward, cutting through waves, rushing swiftly towards Chen Shouyi.
The two closed in quickly.
A thousand ters... Five hundred ters... A hundred ters...
It suddenly opened its mouth, spewing a pale blue, frigid air at Chen Shouyi. As soon as the air appeared, the lake surface froze instantly. Chen Shouyi’s pupils shrank, sharply sensing danger.
This pale blue color, evidently indicated that even the air was frozen. If hit, he might not be instantly shattered, but he would likely suffer severe frostbite.
Chen Shouyi did not dare be careless for a mont.
"Air Imprisonnt!"
He imdiately employed his Air Imprisonnt ability, freezing the icy breath instantly, immobilizing it in the air.
But the cold air could be stopped; however, the transmission of temperature couldn’t be entirely halted.
In the next mont, he felt a chill across his body. Accompanied by soft cracking sounds, ice crystals covered his body, yet they were instantly shattered by his overpowering force.
This level of cold couldn’t affect him.
Seizing this gap, like an icebreaker, he smashed through the ice blocks ahead.
The Divine Creature, seeing this, panicked, spewing another blast of cold air. This ti, it was even less effective; it was frozen a re few ters ahead.
If it weren’t immune to its cold breath, it might have been frozen itself.
After three consecutive blasts to no avail, it lost all will to fight, turning to flee imdiately.
"Trying to escape!" Chen Shouyi sneered internally.
By now, they were within forty or fifty ters. How could it escape now?
He quickened his pace, his massive hand diving into the lake, firmly grasping its tail.
With a single hand exerting an appalling force of six to seven hundred tons, he not only crushed its scales but also nearly flattened its tail.
Before it could turn to spew more cold air, he swung it up with all his might, smashing it heavily onto the lake’s ice.
"Boom!"
The ice split apart as if the lake below had been cleaved in two.
Even the lakebed was exposed, leaving a deep trench.
This creature, two ters thick and over thirty ters long, appeared rely like a slightly larger snake in Chen Shouyi’s eyes now.
Boom, boom, boom...
The explosive booms rang out incessantly.
The whole lake, several square kiloters wide, churned violently, raising seven- or eight-ter-high waves, turning into surging waters rushing ashore, sweeping away many Barbarians.
He smashed down a dozen tis.
Suddenly he missed a strike, realizing he had torn the tail off.
He imdiately stepped forward, fishing out the motionless mass of flesh and blood from the lake, gripping it by the neck. With a slight flick, he discovered it was already dead, even its brain matter having been knocked out.
"Alas, it was far too fragile," he said.
