Under the starry sky.
Chen Feng stood alone in the cockpit. Besides staying alert to his surroundings, he also had to steer the yacht and keep it on the correct course.
After all, the yacht was running low on fuel; if he veered off again, that would be even worse.
So right now Chen Feng had to make sure that every last bit of fuel left on the yacht was spent on the way back, and that there wasn’t the slightest deviation.
The silent sea surface was so calm it was terrifying.
Maybe it was because the weather wasn’t good.
There weren’t even stars or a moon in the sky.
That made everything around them even darker.
For an ordinary person, finding their bearings would be impossible.
Luckily, Chen Feng’s Eye of Tianqi was powerful enough that even at night he could see as if it were dayti, seeing for miles at a glance.
Otherwise, he would have had to stop the yacht and wait for dawn before continuing on.
Ti trickled by, bit by bit.
Chen Feng kept his focus tightly concentrated, ready to respond to any ergency at any mont.
However.
As the return journey was already halfway completed.
There was still no danger.
On the contrary, everything was eerily calm.
The yacht continued steadily forward across the sea surface.
This made Chen Feng frown.
Sothing was off.
This was absolutely off.
Such a calm return trip.
Was absolutely not that fake old Taoist’s style.
If they really just made it safely back to Coastal like this.
That would be the weirdest thing of all.
Chen Feng drew in a deep breath and pushed his Perception to its maximum range.
That way, when danger ca, he could sense it earlier and take asures earlier.
Just like that.
In this unnervingly quiet atmosphere.
Chen Feng piloted the yacht alone, continuing across the sea surface.
Ti slipped away bit by bit.
Around two in the morning.
A beam of dark blood-red light suddenly dropped from the sky.
This beam of light happened to shine right on the bow of the yacht.
This made Chen Feng’s brows knit; he imdiately followed that blood-red beam up toward the sky.
And with that one look.
Chen Feng was completely stunned.
Because.
The dark clouds in the sky had already scattered at so point, revealing the moon.
Only, the color of the moon was a solid blood-red!
As the saying goes, when a blood moon hangs in the sky, great misfortune is sure to follow!
In an instant.
Every nerve in Chen Feng’s body went taut.
He could feel that danger was about to descend!
In that mont.
Chen Feng didn’t dare hesitate; he imdiately circulated the Five Elents Reincarnation Technique, ready to fight at any ti.
Just like that, about five minutes passed.
Still nothing out of the ordinary happened.
Even so, Chen Feng didn’t dare relax his vigilance and continued to wait quietly.
Ten minutes passed.
Twenty minutes passed.
...
In the blink of an eye, another hour had gone by.
Under normal circumstances.
By this ti most people would gradually relax, or at least drop their guard.
But Chen Feng did not.
The longer danger failed to appear, the tighter his nerves were strung.
Because whether from past experience or instinct, everything was telling him.
Danger was definitely lurking, just waiting for the instant he relaxed, and then it would suddenly strike.
And that mont was usually the most lethal.
So Chen Feng didn’t dare slacken in the slightest, still pouring all of his attention into watching his surroundings.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly a strange fluctuation ca from the sea surface.
Imdiately after, the entire sea and the yacht along with it began to shake violently.
This made Chen Feng’s expression change in an instant.
Danger, it really had co!
Chen Feng hurriedly worked to bring the yacht to a stop.
If he kept piloting the yacht forward at a ti like this, there was a very good chance he’d sail straight into a trap.
Staying still and eting change with constancy was the most rational choice.
"Buzz!"
Gradually, the sea surface and the yacht shook even more violently, as if there were an earthquake.
Chen Feng frowned.
His instincts told him that barring any surprises, the danger should be coming from the seabed!
Because this shaking of the sea was extrely abnormal.
It wasn’t like a tsunami or other natural disaster.
Otherwise there couldn’t have been absolutely no warning signs beforehand.
So if he wanted to find the real cause, he could only look to the bottom of the sea!
Thinking of this.
Chen Feng didn’t say another word; he imdiately used the Eye of Tianqi to look beneath the sea surface.
He wanted to see just what was causing trouble.
Yet.
With that one look.
Chen Feng’s face changed drastically.
Because he saw that in the water there was a colossal creature, rapidly closing in on the yacht.
Chen Feng hurriedly stared and took a closer look.
He saw that the size of that behemoth was far greater than that of a normal adult blue whale—at least a hundred tis the size of a normal adult blue whale!
Its outward appearance was sowhat similar to a whale’s.
Jet-black skin over its entire body, and around its mouth grew fangs even sharper than a shark’s.
Around its body, a mass of evil black aura coiled and churned, giving off a powerful sense of oppression.
To tell the truth.
This was the first ti Chen Feng had ever encountered such a gigantic monster.
Compared to it, even the Devouring Sky Python seed much smaller.
As for the Nine-headed Wolf that Ye Qiu had run into earlier, that wasn’t even worth ntioning.
After all, an adult blue whale was already the largest existence in the sea.
But this whale-like monster was nearly a hundred tis the size of an adult blue whale.
This was practically a moving sea island!
So islands weren’t even as big as it was!
Such a colossal creature exerted an imnse pressure on anyone facing it.
Speaking of which.
Since when did the sea have a monster this big?
If it were on Tianqi Island.
Running into bizarre creatures like the Nine-headed Wolf.
Chen Feng wouldn’t have found it strange.
After all, Tianqi Island itself was a miraculous existence.
It was only natural for it to nurture so oddly shaped lifeforms.
But right now.
He had clearly piloted the yacht away from Tianqi Island for half a day, covering nearly half the distance ho; at this rate it wouldn’t be long before they reached the mainland.
How could he still be encountering a gigantic creature that defied human common sense?
The more Chen Feng thought about it, the stranger it seed. He instinctively turned to look back.
And with that glance.
Chen Feng’s expression changed on the spot.
Because just one kiloter behind him, he saw a familiar island.
It was Tianqi Island!
All at once.
Chen Feng could no longer remain calm.
Because this was utterly impossible.
At dusk, he had piloted the yacht away from Tianqi Island with Lin ngyao, Tang Yuxin, and Sun Xiaoli.
Now it was past two in the morning.
By rights, they’d been sailing for nearly eight hours, and that was with a confird course.
How could they have traveled only one kiloter?
Could it be that during these eight hours.
The yacht had just been going around in circles in place?
That shouldn’t be it either.
He had personally watched the route with the Eye of Tianqi; there was absolutely no way it could be wrong!
