Chapter 247: Farming in the Deep Sea, Massive Expansion (II)

In an instant, endless lightning erupted from the Thunder Beast, forming spheres of bolts, each as thick as an arm or thigh, that swept over a hundred meters in a spherical net.

All of the swordfish below level 4 that got caught in the net paused, and then the unstable energy within them was detonated by the lightning.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Hundreds of swordfish exploded, creating a shockwave that made the level 5 swordfish detonate as well, causing even more intense explosions. The overwhelming power destroyed the thunderbolt net, and the entire area shook.

The last three swordfish, all level 6, had been far enough away to avoid getting damaged, and now pierced through the raging waters to rush toward the Thunder Beast.

Driven by the will to survive, the ape erupted with a frenzy of spiritual shockwaves. It had tried to influence the Thunder Beast with the shockwaves, but that hadn’t worked at all. Now, its only hope was for these three swordfish to explode near the Thunder Beast.

Biu!

Flames erupted from the Thunder Beast’s back, and its lightning-wrapped tail darted about with enough speed to create sonic booms and afterimages.

The twenty-meter-long sword moved about as if it was being wielded by a master swordsman, slashing out sharp saber lights that tore the three level 6 swordfish rushing toward it into pieces, thanks to the saber arts that Chen Chu had been learning at the time.

While the tail dealt with the three swordfish, the Thunder Beast\'s claws gathered indomitable power, and golden-red flames and lightning materialized, forming two swirling lights around them.

Boom!

Under the Thunder Beast’s strike, the entire seabed collapsed. There was a deafening roar as countless rocks and soil flew up from the explosive force, tumbling like earth dragons. A violent water flow surged out for over a thousand meters, stirring up swirling sediment and making the surroundings murky.

The raging water slowly subsided to reveal a crater with a diameter of over a hundred meters on the seabed, with the earth crumbling within hundreds of meters around it. The level 8 ape’s body lay partially crushed deep within.

Its thick protective energy, its two-meter-thick scales, its flesh and bones as durable as alloys, all had been useless against the unstoppable force of the hundredfold explosion.

This was the terror of top-level abilities. The ability that the Thunder Beast had acquired when it was still weak now displayed formidable strength after it had broken through to level 7 and grown into a nearly fifty-meter-long colossal beast.

One similarity between mutated creatures and human cultivators was that the higher the level, the greater the suppression. Whether in terms of size, body strength, or ability power, the difference of one level meant almost complete dominance.

Unless these mutated creatures had awakened dragon or king-level bloodlines, there was simply no chance against higher-level opponents.

The Thunder Beast, however, was an exception. As other mutated creatures improved in strength, their bloodlines would evolve, and their bodies would be tempered by transcendent energy, becoming stronger and more resilient.

In addition to those things, the Thunder Beast also had its unique evolutionary energy. Each time it grew a bit, its cells would undergo frenzied division and compression. While its size increased at a somewhat normal rate, its body density was like a collapsing neutron star, with its strength becoming more terrifying and its defense astonishing.

This was the fundamental reason why it could easily fight opponents of higher levels. Its sheer strength and defense alone could rival a higher level beast. Coupled with its other abilities, crossing a major realm in battle was as easy as drinking water. Even in the middle stage of level 7, it could easily slaughter beasts in the beginning stage of level 8.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

With the hundreds of mutated swordfish gone, there was a mournful roar from the late stage level 7 ape as the Dragon Turtle and Kun worked together to kill it.

Boom!

The Kun beheaded it with a single bite.

However, after this battle, the magnificent purple coral forest was largely destroyed, with ruins floating about and countless marine creatures killed by the collateral damage. Most of these ordinary mutated creatures had died in the first two major explosions.

The Thunder Beast rose up, dragging the ape\'s carcass toward the Kun. As it approached, it let out a low roar. Roar! Let\'s go, time to get some good stuff.

Roar! Let\'s get some good food.

The Dragon Turtle also roared excitedly.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Come with me.

The water surged as the Kun swirled around, and in a blink, it rushed into the depths of the coral forest. The Dragon Turtle quickly followed, swinging its four legs.

Glancing at the level 7 ape’s carcass, the Thunder Beast shook its head slightly, then grabbed the ape\'s big foot with its other claw and dragged the two bodies along.

The colossal beasts quickly arrived at the center of the rocky forest the mutated creatures had been guarding, a small underwater mountain rising hundreds of meters.

At the base, a huge cavity, dozens of meters in diameter and extending downward, had been excavated, from which pure transcendent energy poured out. Feeling the surging pure energy emanating from inside, the colossal beasts became excited.

The Thunder Beast threw the bodies of the two apes outside the cave and led the way into the depths. Soon, the three colossal beasts traveled hundreds of meters underground.

They saw huge cavities filled with purple, slightly swaying coral plants.

Compared to the sparse corals on the rocks above, the number of corals in here was thousands of times greater, constantly emitting large amounts of purple energy substance, so much that the underground cave had almost turned into a purple world.

Gurgle!

The Thunder Beast took a deep breath, and instantly a burst of pure energy exploded inside its body, bringing a refreshing feeling to every one of its cells. With just one breath, it had already recovered most of the energy consumed in the battle.

Roar! Such pure energy.

Even the Thunder Beast couldn\'t help but growl excitedly.

Normally, mutated beasts needed to convert the transcendent energy they absorbed, and most of it would dissipate back into the world during the conversion process. Here, however, the purple particles the corals emitted after transforming the transcendent energy were like pure energy food, directly absorbable with almost no dissipation.

Most importantly, they could be absorbed with just a few breaths, a boon for these beasts.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Charge! Charge! Charge!

The three colossal beasts charged directly into the underground cavity, over a hundred meters high and hundreds of meters in diameter, opening their mouths wide to greedily devour and absorb everything.

With a combination of this energy and the long-term consumption of the growth crystals, their bodies underwent frenzied evolution, and the Thunder Beast’s evolution points continuously skyrocketed.

Crackling sounds filled the water as Thunder Beast\'s body visibly enlarged at an incredible speed, quickly reaching forty-nine meters, fifty meters, fifty-one...

The Dragon Turtle and the Kun also expanded in size.

When the Thunder Beast reached a length of fifty-three meters, the three colossal beasts finally stopped, as the surrounding purple energy substance had been mostly devoured. Moreover, as the purple substance in the water had disappeared, the purple corals also fell inactive, only occasionally emitting a bit of purple substance.

Roar! We were too impulsive, it seems these things are interdependent and can\'t be absorbed all at once. The Thunder Beast felt a bit regretful.

No wonder those Deep Sea Apes didn\'t consume all this energy. Those two mutated creatures had not been lacking in intelligence; they actually understood the concept of farming.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! So full, so comfortable.

Roar! So satisfying, but it\'s gone.

The Dragon Turtle, now at fifty-two meters, and the Kun at fifty-one meters, growled and roared, still reveling in the excitement of their increased size and strength.

Roar! Let\'s go, time to get to work.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Thunder Fiery, what else do we need to do?

The Kun was somewhat puzzled. Aren\'t all the enemies taken care of?

Roar! You two, go destroy all the rocky pillars around us, especially the purple corals growing on them.

Roar! But why destroy those beautiful things?

The Dragon Turtle was perplexed.

Bang!

The Thunder Beast struck its massive shell with a claw, sending the Dragon Turtle flying several meters away with a thunderous crash.

Roar! No more nonsense, just do as you\'re told, and do it quickly.

Immediately, the Dragon Turtle\'s neck shrank, feeling somewhat aggrieved as it swam away. Seeing this, the Kun hurriedly followed, afraid that the Thunder Beast might strike it too.

That guy is always bullying others.

Hmph! These guys never learn their lesson. The Thunder Beast snorted and followed them out of the underground cavity.

At this point, the Dragon Turtle and the Kun were already diligently destroying the rocks. Seeing this, the Thunder Beast took a deep breath and ascended to the top of the small mountain.

Boom!

The Thunder Beast demolished half of the mountain, and countless rocks buried the cave with rumbling crashes, plunging the surroundings into darkness and silence.

With the cave sealed and the surrounding purple corals destroyed, it was unlikely that any mutated creatures would discover the coral cave buried hundreds of meters below. In about half a month, they would return to see how the purple energy had grown. By then, they could determine whether it was a long-term hold or a short-term harvest based on its growth.

The Thunder Beast stood up and pondered on the collapsed peak. Nearly an hour later, when the Kun and Dragon Turtle finished their busy work, the Thunder Beast nodded in satisfaction.

Roar! Let\'s go back home.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Thunder Fiery, can\'t you let Baxia handle this kind of thing next time? It\'s exhausting.

The Kun weakly waved its fins.

Roar! Why? Why should I do it alone?

The Dragon Turtle was somewhat defiant.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Because you\'re the youngest, the third one, so you should do more.

Roar! Why am I the third one? I\'m clearly older than you.

Roar! Alright, let\'s head back first. If you have any objections, we\'ll settle it with a fight when we get back. The winner will be the second in command.

Amid low roars, the three bandit-like colossal beasts disappeared into the darkness, with the Thunder Beast still clutching onto two pieces of food.

With so much energy absorbed this time, coupled with the bodies of the two mutated beasts, its size would undergo another significant surge once it consumed some more growth crystals back home.
