Beast Taming Tower

Chapter 2432 The Four Scattered Escape, Devouring Whale

"Enemy attack!"

Chen Xuan roared, startling everyone on the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship, who rushed out of their secluded chambers.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan dared not be negligent and immediately pushed the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship to its limit.

hum!

The arrays and restrictions on the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship were operating simultaneously.

Dozens of terrifying beams of light, each as thick as a bowl, erupted directly from the array's light barrier and fell into the depths of the sea.

At that moment, a violent churning of the seawater began, and dark red essence blood gushed out from the seawater.

It seems that the sea monster has been hit.

This made Chen Xuan and the others overjoyed.

"Haha, these monsters actually dare to ambush us? They're courting death!"

"Who says otherwise? The formations on the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship can even instantly kill a Golden Immortal in the early stages. Dealing with these demonic beasts should be a piece of cake!"

"That's right, we must have killed quite a few demonic beasts just now. I just don't know how many of those beasts were when they ambushed us!"

While controlling the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship, Chen Xuan secretly used his divine sense to carefully investigate.

They discovered that beneath the azure sea, countless monstrous beasts were chasing after them in the direction they had fled.

The leading monster, in particular, was several times larger than the others.

Its broad back resembles a small mountain.

Its massive, streamlined body moves freely through the seawater at incredible speeds.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan's expression changed slightly.

"Fellow Daoists, those demonic beasts are still relentlessly pursuing us. One of them is enormous. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a very powerful whale-like demonic beast."

Chen Xuan looked solemn.

Upon hearing this, everyone present immediately changed their expressions.

The strength of whale-like monsters lies in their thick hides and strong defenses.

Moreover, it is very good at water-based attacks.

In the ocean, although these whale-like monsters are cultivated to the level of True Immortals, their combat power can crush True Immortals of the same realm.

Among the powerful individuals who ventured into the Boundless Sea to hunt demonic beasts, many perished under the attacks of these whale-like demonic beasts.

Soon, Aunt Qing, who had the highest cultivation level, also seemed to have sensed the danger in the sea.

As her eyebrows furrowed, her expression became unusually solemn.

"If I am not mistaken, the whale-like monster chasing us should be the infamous Devouring Whale."

"Otherwise, the power of that water jet just now wouldn't have been so terrifying!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions drastically.

The Sky-Swallowing Whale!

This is the best among whale-like monsters.

Not only are they formidable fighters, but they also have a volatile temper.

Once the enemy is locked on, it's a fight to the death.

Most importantly, the terrifying aspect of the Sky-Swallowing Whale lies in its extremely high level of intelligence.

When facing a True Immortal of the same realm, they are completely overwhelmed.

Moreover, once the Sky-Swallowing Whales appear, they come in large groups.

Dealing with even one Sky-Swallowing Whale is extremely difficult; dealing with a group of Sky-Swallowing Whales is simply a pipe dream.

"What? There's even a Sky-Swallowing Whale? Doesn't this mean we're doomed?"

"How could our luck be so bad? We've only been in the Inner Sea for a short time, and we've already encountered a powerful monster like the Devouring Whale?"

"This is unbelievable. Given the nature of the Sky-Swallowing Whale, there's definitely more than one. I'm afraid the others are already ambushing us elsewhere."

At this point, everyone's expression turned extremely grim.

Chen Xuan, who was in control of the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship, did not dare to be careless.

He secretly activated the Heavenly Illusion Demon Eye, carefully observing all the movements around him.

Soon, he discovered that a group of shadowy figures were shooting towards them from directly in front of the Tiange Sea Ship.

"As expected! There's another Sky-Devouring Whale lying in ambush ahead!"

Chen Xuan looked shocked.

As he spoke, he abruptly turned the Sky Pavilion Sea Boat around, heading diagonally to the left front.

The shadowy figures hiding in the darkness ahead also changed direction in an instant, splitting up to surround and intercept the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship controlled by Chen Xuan.

This scene made everyone's hearts leap into their throats.

However, although the speed of the Tiange Sea Ship is very fast, it is ultimately limited.

Compared to the giant whale, the king of whales in the sea, it is far inferior.

In the short time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, the Devouring Whale caught up with the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship controlled by Chen Xuan and launched an attack.

boom!

In the vast ocean, a giant whale, hundreds of feet in size, opened its mouth and spewed out a water column tens of feet in length and nearly a hundred feet in thickness, crashing towards the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship.

The terrifying attack shook the very air, causing the void to vibrate and hum.

No one dared to be careless. Before the Devouring Whale's attack could land, everyone joined forces to try and destroy the water column.

Unfortunately, the power of this water jet was terrifying.

Even with everyone's best efforts, they could not completely destroy it.

Moreover, it wasn't just one Sky-Swallowing Whale that made the move at this moment.

The swallowing whales, which were hiding in the shadows, launched their attacks almost simultaneously.

boom!

One terrifying column of water after another crashed down on the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship.

Even though Chen Xuan and the others were giving it their all, they were still no match for these Devouring Whales.

Before long, the protective array on the Tiange Sea Ship emitted a crisp cracking sound.

Visible cracks rapidly spread across the array's light barrier.

Upon seeing this, Fairy Xiuwen's expression changed drastically.

"Fellow Daoists, the protective array of the Heavenly Pavilion Sea Ship can't hold for much longer. Let's split up and escape."

"This is a nautical chart of the area, marking our next rendezvous point. Fellow Daoists, please do not lose it."

As Fairy Xiuwen spoke, she distributed jade slips to Chen Xuan and the others.

Chen Xuan appeared calm, but the expressions on the faces of the others turned extremely grim.

However, the protective array above everyone's heads had already reached its limit at this moment.

A series of teeth-grinding cracking sounds followed one after another.

Wow!

Visible cracks rapidly spread across the entire array's light barrier.

In just a short while, the array's light barrier shattered completely.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan activated his Thunder Wings without hesitation.

Boom!

Accompanied by a sharp thunder.

The moment Chen Xuan's Thunder Wings flapped, they were instantly swept away by a ball of lightning power and vanished at high speed.

In the blink of an eye, they had rushed several miles away.

Everyone else was astonished by Chen Xuan's incredible speed.

At this moment, however, no one was paying much attention to Chen Xuan.

They all took measures to escape in different directions.

Qingyang flipped his hand and took out a bright blue talisman, quickly infusing it with immortal power to activate it.

Wow!

In an instant, Qingyang's figure became blurry.

Before long, he transformed into a drop of water and disappeared into the ocean.

Aunt Qing and Fairy Xiuwen joined forces to activate a jade talisman.

He tore through the void and fled on the spot.

……

hum!

In the void, the howling of the wind rang in Chen Xuan's ears.

Chen Xuan dared not be careless and continued to flee for his life.

However, when he secretly activated the Heavenly Illusion Demon Eye and quickly scanned the sea below, he was immediately stunned.

There, a dozen or so giant whales were slowly following him in the ocean directly below.

As he accelerated, the giant whales also began to accelerate.

As he slowed down, the giant whales also began to slow down.

The lowest cultivation level among these Sky-Swallowing Whales is the early stage of Golden Immortal.

The leader of them was even at the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm.

Seeing that he was being followed by so many Sky-Devouring Whales, Chen Xuan's expression turned extremely ugly.

"These guys are really fast. But judging from their expressions, it seems like they're trying to work me to death?"

"Hehe, if it were an ordinary person, they would probably have been played to death by these Devouring Whales."

"But I have a large group of helpers, so I don't need to be too afraid of them."

As he spoke, Chen Xuan's divine sense rapidly spread out in all directions.

When Chen Xuan saw a small island dozens of miles in front of him, he was overjoyed.

The moment the Thunder Wings were activated, they shot directly toward the island.

The Devouring Whales that had been following Chen Xuan also frantically chased after him.

Within the time it takes to eat a meal, Chen Xuan and the group of Devouring Whales arrived almost one after the other.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan didn't stand on ceremony and released all the demonic beasts.

"Chen Quan, go out into the ocean and ambush them when the opportunity arises. If these Sky-Swallowing Whales try to escape, mark them immediately!"

"The rest of you, follow me and make the move."

At Chen Xuan's command, all the demonic beasts took action.

Soon, the Sky-Swallowing Whale, which was chasing Chen Xuan, saw that Chen Xuan had hidden on the island. It then began to leap out of the sea repeatedly, creating huge waves in an attempt to submerge the entire island.

But Chen Xuan completely ignored him.

With a thought, the divine sense within the Niwan Palace was rapidly activated to its maximum.

hum!

Several terrifying shockwaves of divine sense struck directly at the early-stage Golden Immortal Devouring Whales within the Devouring Whales.

In the blink of an eye, these early-stage Golden Immortal Devouring Whales were attacked by Chen Xuan's divine sense, their bodies trembling violently as if they had been electrocuted.

Little did they know, death had already arrived.

boom!

A tail hook, several feet thick, somehow pierced the water and went straight through the body of a giant whale.

Immediately afterwards, the hundreds-of-meters-long Sky-Swallowing Whale was torn in two by someone.

A lightning spear, as thick as a bowl, appeared out of the sea at some unknown time.

With a soft "whoosh," the lightning pierced through the body of the early-stage Golden Immortal Devouring Whale, instantly killing it.

There is also a water jet as thick as a bowl, quietly formed from the sea.

It pierced directly into the body of a mid-stage Golden Immortal Devouring Whale.

The Devouring Whale, which was not affected by the divine thought, was also killed instantly.

The battle had barely begun when the Devouring Whale's side was attacked.

The losses were exceptionally severe.

Fortunately, the Devouring Whales that were lost were not very powerful.

The fighting strength of the Sky-Devouring Whale pod was not greatly reduced.

At this moment, the leading Golden Immortal late-stage Devouring Whale also suddenly realized what was happening.

"Roar!"

The moment a roar was suddenly uttered, the seawater around the island suddenly surged rapidly.

Soon, it transformed into a wall of water hundreds of feet high, rushing towards the island from all directions.

They were trying to completely submerge the island where Chen Xuan was located.

Chen Xuan seemed to have been prepared.

With a thought, Thunder Wings were activated at lightning speed, disappearing directly from the island.

When they reappeared, they were already hundreds of feet high in the void.

From his vantage point high above, he secretly activated the Heavenly Illusion Demon Eye, taking in every move of the Devouring Whales.

When he saw the Devouring Whale below, along with the Devouring Whale at the late Golden Immortal stage, and more than eight others, his face immediately darkened.

"One late-stage Golden Immortal and seven mid-stage Golden Immortals. Could it be that the entire Devouring Whale swarm has come to hunt me down?"

Chen Xuan frowned.

As he spoke, he had already fully activated the Dragon-Seeking Sword.

hum!

A piercing sword cry rang out.

On the Dragon-Seeking Sword, countless sword shadows fell into the sea like a raging sandstorm.

The swarm of swallowing whales below immediately felt a sense of impending doom and scattered in all directions.

Only the Devouring Whale, a late-stage Golden Immortal, not only did not dodge, but roared at Chen Xuan and pounced directly.

"Well done!"

Chen Xuan sneered, and immediately a thought occurred to him.

The Dragon Seeking Sword, which originally exuded a terrifying sword shadow, suddenly increased in size.

Before long, it transformed into a giant sword hundreds of feet in size, which swiftly slashed towards the Devouring Whale, a late-stage Golden Immortal.
