Chapter 335: Section 122: The Ship Ghost’s Self-Rescue
Three chill shadow claw monsters surrounded the Fishman youth.
They let out simultaneous screeches, lunging at the youth from three different directions.
Besieged, the youth just laughed coldly, undaunted. With one hand, he let go of i Lan’s waist, tightly grasping the fishtail with both hands.
He spun on the spot, using his feet as a pivot, and flung his arms out wide, swinging i Lan around with a whooshing sound, forming a large circle.
i Lan’s long hair was slung out to the forefront, and the seven-colored Divine Light from her body ford a huge light ring.
Three Golden Level chill shadow claw monsters that brushed against the light ring were imdiately knocked away without any suspense.
...
The youth shifted his stance slightly, moving the light ring slowly and relentlessly pursuing the attack, cornering two chill shadow claw monsters against a wall and literally spinning them to death.
The last claw monster tried to counterattack, leaping towards the youth’s back.
He moved swiftly upon hearing the sound, stepping forward to dodge the monster’s lunge.
Then, he spun in mid-air and yanked the fishtail, smashing i Lan down like a hamr.
i Lan’s back of the head hit the claw monster, killing it instantly. Then it smashed onto the hard tallic floor, creating a head-shaped deep pit.
A twitch ran through the corner of i Lan’s eye.
Her upper body was almost embedded in the floor tiles, and hair spread out in all directions, resembling a mop.
The Fishman youth quickly retracted i Lan and held her in his arms, “Tower Spirit, where are there more intruders?”
The Tower Spirit promptly replied, directing the youth.
Holding i Lan with renewed confidence, the youth took the offensive.
Relying on his divine body, he slaughtered the chill shadow claw monsters that had invaded the Deep Sea Monster Fish one by one.
The youth was fierce and formidable, yet also feeling an anxious restlessness, “I only have one last Pearl Bubble left, I must finish the battle quickly before it runs out. It’s very likely that once the Pearl Bubble completely disappears, I won’t be able to use the divine body like this.”
According to the Fishman youth’s analysis, the reasons he could touch i Lan without being hard by the divine body were because of the Blood Core Mutation that altered his life form and due to the Faith Disguise of the Pearl Bubble. Both were crucial; lacking either, he wouldn’t be recognized by the Goddess i Lan.
Bang!
The Deep Sea Monster Fish shook violently and couldn’t move.
Its fish mouth and tail were grasped by the chill shadow giant’s hands.
The chill shadow giant let out a thunderous roar as if to say, “Finally caught you!”
He tilted his head back, then used his forehead as a Siege Hamr, viciously ramming into one side of the Deep Sea Monster Fish.
Boom!
The Deep Sea Monster Fish was solidly hit, shards of tal flew everywhere, and the sturdy alchemy fra buckled under the headbutt of the chill shadow giant, completely deforming.
The chill shadow giant’s entire face was smashed into the middle part of the Deep Sea Monster Fish.
At this critical mont, the Fishman youth holding i Lan rushed over.
The chill shadow giant opened its massive jaw and bit at the Fishman youth.
“My lord, it’s up to you!” The youth felt the terrifying aura of the Holy Domain and promptly erected the Goddess in front of him.
The Goddess acted like a pole, her head blocking the chill shadow giant’s upper jaw, her tail propping up the lower jaw.
“Huff! Huff…” The Fishman youth gasped for air, his heart pounding, everything was too thrilling.
The chill shadow giant couldn’t bite down.
i Lan might appear delicate in her divine form, but she was indestructible with Divine Light enveloping her.
The chill shadow giant’s mouth began to lt violently upon contact with the Divine Light.
It roared again, bursting forth with a surge of pitch-black chill from its throat.
Wuuu…
The billowing chill rolled out, as black as smoke, freezing everything.
The Fishman youth was only silver, and if he fought alone in this black chill, he wouldn’t last even a second. But his body was close to the Goddess, safe and unhard thanks to the Divine Light.
“Truly worthy of being i Lan!”
Suddenly, the youth’s eyes widened. He noticed that the Divine Light on the goddess was rapidly fading.
“This is it!” The ship ghost was overjoyed, passing through the door and arriving in the captain’s quarters.
“This is the captain’s quarters, if I find that key control valve, I could…”
The ship ghost was presented with nurous buttons of different colors and many control switches that moved up and down.
“Damn it… which one is it?!”
“Doesn’t matter, let’s try this out!”
The ship ghost knew ti was of the essence, and to a certain extent, he understood the situation even more keenly than the Fishman youth.
He knew i Lan might awaken at any mont, possibly the next. But for him to escape this place was incredibly difficult. The first step was to absorb the Soul Crystal to increase his own strength.
The ship ghost tried pressing a few buttons.
Only then did he reveal a trace of his presence.
But he quickly froze in shock.
As the ship ghost pressed the buttons, there was only one response; he heard the voice of the Tower Spirit: “Detection of fish-shaped stern dismantling button activated, malfunction found, malfunction found, troubleshooting has been arranged at the end of the queue.”
The ship ghost realized the situation, clasped his head with both hands, and roared in his mind, “Why?!”
“Why does this alchemy ship still have a ship spirit?!”
It wasn’t actually a ship spirit but a Tower Spirit, the Central Tower spirit from the War rchant’s Alchemy Factory, which the youth had transferred over.
Of course, the ship ghost was unaware of this precedent, but that did not stop him from realizing: the alchemy ship was under the control of a ship spirit, without the proper authority, he couldn’t bypass the ship spirit to control the ship.
“Calm down! Calm down!”
“I still have the strength for one more strike, as long as I eliminate the ship spirit, I’ll be able to control these valves and buttons.”
The ghostly ship ghost forced himself to calm down as he began searching for the Tower Spirit’s vessel throughout the Captain’s cabin.
He couldn’t find it!
A very ominous premonition arose in the ship ghost’s heart, “Could it be that the Tower Spirit’s vessel is hidden inside that chamber?”
To enter that mysterious chamber, he needed to open the door. To open the door, he had to press the valves. And to press the valves, he needed to eliminate the Tower Spirit. To eliminate the Tower Spirit, he had to find the vessel, to deal a fatal blow. But the vessel might very well be inside the mysterious chamber.
“Damn it… I’m going to be pissed to death!”
Although he had already died.
He found himself trapped in a vicious cycle.
“Am I dood today?!” After trying for a long ti, the rage in the ghostly ship ghost’s heart gradually subsided, replaced by panic and despair.
Boom!
Another tremor.
The ghostly ship ghost floated in mid-air, yet motionless.
Ever since he had entered the Captain’s cabin, such tremors had been occurring continuously, and the Tower Spirit kept reporting damages from various parts of the ship, which he had grown accustod to.
“Wait, what did I just hear?”
The ship ghost suddenly snapped to attention.
“The hull of the first Core Cabin has been breached?”
“Could it be that cabin?”
Clinging to this single hope, the ghostly ship ghost imdiately darted out of the Captain’s cabin, through the corridor, and quickly arrived at the first Core Cabin.
“Hahaha!” He found the first Core Cabin, exactly the one he wanted to sneak into, and it was already damaged, forming a large hole.
“There’s still hope, I still have a chance to escape from here!”
Just as the ship ghost was about to crawl into the cabin, with a loud bang, the Fishman youth holding the Goddess crashed into it first.
Two Golden Level Cold Shadow Claw monsters, closely followed and entered the fray.
The Fishman youth kept retreating, using the i Lan Goddess as a shield to fend off the formidable enemies.
The ghostly ship ghost looked on for a mont, and panic struck him even harder.
He noticed that the layer of Seven-Colored Divine Light on the surface of the i Lan Goddess’s divine body had dimd significantly.
The defense of the divine body was rapidly weakening.
And the Goddess was starting to get injured in the fierce battle!
Her forehead, due to being used as a spearhead too many tis, was already bruised. Her cheeks were also sowhat swollen.
The fair and delicate waist even started to redden.
The Goddess’s brows were tightly furrowed, and the corners of her eyes stood upright, revealing a surge of anger!
The ship ghost was terrified, and he wouldn’t be surprised if the Goddess woke up the next mont.
“This Fishman is too brazen, too terrifying!”
The ship ghost felt as though he were walking a tightrope at the edge of a cliff.
“I must act in the blink of an eye!!”
The ship ghost rushed into the cabin as well.
A shock of astonishnt hit him once again.
He saw the still-maintained magnificent Array and even the core Divine Artifact within it.
A Gold Coffin with sides inlaid with Green Jade carvings, outlined with silver. The reliefs depicted elegantly undulating serpent bodies and magnificent, broad wings.
“Could this be the Green Jade Gold Coffin? The Divine Artifact of the Feathered Snake?”
Such artifacts were extrely rare, and with the ship ghost’s knowledge, he imdiately recognized it.
“There is actually a Divine Artifact hidden here!! What exactly is the background of this Fishman Divine Son? Could it truly be an arrangent of the i Lan Goddess?”
For a while, the ship ghost was filled with confusion.
Why would “junior brother” help this Fishman youth?
How did they discover his deep sea chamber and take out all of his treasures in one go?
And this Fishman was also very strange, although recognized as the Divine Son, his attitude towards the i Lan Goddess was surely more sacrilegious than that of a Desecration Priest!
Thump thump thump…
In the ongoing battle, the Fishman youth, holding the i Lan Goddess, continued to retreat.
Although the youth had killed one of the Cold Shadow Claw monsters, another one joined, still maintaining the number at two.
It would have been fine elsewhere, but here, the youth had to protect Zi Di within the Green Jade Gold Coffin at all costs, which sowhat restricted him and forced him to adopt a rigid defensive stance, falling into a disadvantage.
“Tower Spirit, shut down the Array!” the youth roared.
The Array imdiately shut down, and soon, the youth retreated to the edge of the Array. His fight with the Cold Shadow Claw monsters affected the Array, causing a large portion of its edge to be destroyed.
Luckily, he shut down the Array beforehand; otherwise, a functioning Array damaged could lead to Magic Power chaos, causing the Array to collapse or even explode, which would inflict even greater harm on the youth.
“Good opportunity!” Without the Array in the way, the ghostly ship ghost imdiately shot in, flying above the Green Jade Gold Coffin.
In the next mont, he saw the slumbering Zi Di and also the twelve frescoes depicted with black lines on the inner walls of the coffin. The frescoes illustrated the various tales of the Feathered Snake God.
The ship ghost was certain about the Green Jade Gold Coffin, and at the sa ti, he was overjoyed: “How could there be so many Soul Crystals?”
