Chapter 136: Giant Lobster Monster
Chapter 136: Giant Lobster Monster
She couldn't help but think of her parents, who had loved her for many years, their kind faces and warm smiles resurfacing in her mind. She also remembered the brothers and sisters who had grown up with her, and the happy times they had shared together were still vivid in her mind. However, at this moment, these relatives were far away in another time and space, and she didn't know if they were well.
Thinking of this, Ziwei felt an indescribable pain well up in her heart. She couldn't imagine the immense grief and devastation her family would endure after her sudden passing. Would they weep and become depressed over the loss of their daughter (or sister)? Or would they bravely face reality and continue to live their lives well?
"Chen'er, what's wrong with you?" Fu Kang'an looked at her worriedly. What was going on with the scars that suddenly appeared on her body? Did he say something wrong?
"Did I say something wrong? I know this dream is ridiculous and I shouldn't have told you. Our Qing Dynasty would never reach that point. Don't be sad. I won't say anything more, okay?"
He was so upset that he wanted to hit himself to death. Why did he tell her such a ridiculous dream? This girl was so patriotic, and he didn't know how sad she would be when she heard that something like that would happen in the future.
At that moment, the previously calm sea suddenly became turbulent, with a howling wind whipping through, stirring up waves of raging seas. In the blink of an eye, a massive vortex formed in the sea, seemingly threatening to swallow up everything around it.
As the vortex rapidly spun, an enormous lobster slowly emerged from the depths. Its massive body towered over the water like a small mountain. Even more astonishing, its eyes glowed with an eerie light like two giant lanterns, creating a formidable sight.
Ziwei and Fukang'an, standing on the shore, were stunned by the sight. For a moment, they were filled with astonishment and fear, completely at a loss for what to do. After a long while, Fukang'an finally came to his senses and asked in a trembling voice, "What...what on earth is this? Could it be the legendary monster?"
The giant lobster looked up and down at the two people on the shore with great interest, and its gaze finally stopped at Ziwei and Fukang'an. It seemed to sense the rich spiritual energy in their bodies, and when it saw Ziwei, a hint of greed flashed in its eyes.
Being so brazenly watched by such a behemoth, both Ziwei and Fukang'an felt uneasy. Fukang'an suppressed his inner panic and said to Ziwei in a low voice, "Chen'er, I'll go get its attention. Take this opportunity to run away. Don't look back, and don't worry about me!" As he spoke, he slowly reached for the longsword at his waist and gripped it tightly, his eyes fixed on the giant lobster's every move, not daring to relax even a little.
However, Ziwei stopped Fukang'an and said firmly: "Don't act impulsively! How can this ordinary sword do anything to it? Let me do it!" Before she finished speaking, she waved her arm lightly, and a green vine as thick as an adult's arm instantly broke out of the ground and rushed towards the big lobster at lightning speed.
But then something unexpected happened. The giant lobster showed no fear at the swiftly approaching vine, casually waving its massive claws. With a few crisp "crackling" sounds, the seemingly indestructible vine was easily cut into several pieces, scattering across the ground.
"Hahahahahaha... You two insignificant little ants, how dare you attack this king! You really don't know your place! If you know what's good for you, just crawl into my mouth and maybe you'll die a quicker death. Otherwise, don't blame me for using my sharp pincers to easily mold you into meat patties like dough!"
The monster was roaring and showing its fangs and claws, and what was shocking was that it could actually speak in human language!
Ziwei's heart tightened when she heard the beast speak. In those novels, any beast that could speak human language was always a being with extremely high cultivation.
She had only just entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, and compared to the powerful demon beast before her, the gap in strength was enormous. Could she really defeat this terrifying creature? Thinking of this, Ziwei's heartbeat became increasingly rapid.
Fear did not completely occupy Ziwei's heart. She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and suddenly turned sideways, throwing herself into Fukang'an's arms like a bird flying into the forest, and hugged his waist tightly.
Fukang'an was startled by the sudden hug, but he reacted and held her tightly in his arms. It was rare for Chen'er to take the initiative to throw herself into his arms.
Feeling Fukang'an's warm and solid chest, Ziwei said in a trembling voice: "Fukang'an, if we are lucky enough to escape from the clutches of this monster today, then I agree to marry you!"
"Really?" Fukang'an was overjoyed when he heard this, and hugged the beauty in his arms tightly with his arms.
He lowered his head and sniffed the faint herbal fragrance emanating from Ziwei. The fresh and pleasant smell made his heart flutter.
Then, he raised his head, looked into Ziwei's eyes gently and firmly, and said firmly: "Chen'er, we will definitely be able to leave this place alive!"
With that, Fukang'an let go of Ziwei and drew the long sword from his waist. He raised it high above his head, pointing the tip of the sword directly at the arrogant lobster. At the same time, his eyes flashed with endless murderous intent, as if he wanted to cut the abominable monster into pieces.
"Fukang'an, don't act impulsively! This monster that can speak human language must have unfathomable cultivation. I'm afraid it's far beyond the ability of the two of us to contend with together." Ziwei shouted with fear on her face, her voice trembling slightly.
Fukang'an flung the sword he was clutching aside and quickly formed a series of magical seals with his hands. Instantly, lightning bolts as thick as thumbs flickered and danced at his fingertips, crackling with a clatter. Upon closer inspection, the lightning wasn't as sharp and ferocious as natural lightning. Instead, it resembled the dazzling fireworks of later generations: dazzling but seemingly without much lethality.
Fu Kang'an was only at the Qi Refining stage at this moment, yet he could actually perform such a miraculous lightning spell. If he ever managed to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, wouldn't the power of this lightning spell be even greater? Thinking of this, Ziwei couldn't help but feel secretly horrified.
She thought about it and took out some spiritual liquid from her personal space.
"Fukangan, open your mouth!"
