813 Feeling More Wronged Than Dou E
Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms
"Mmm…"
The clock was ticking and Chen Xiaobei's stamina was reaching its limit. Under normal circumstances, Chen Xiaobei could recycle the air within his body and last for at least half an hour in the water. Now that he was placed in a circumstance where sea current was constantly taking a toll on him so there was no way that Chen Xiaobei could last any longer in a place like that. At the same time, tiny grains of sand entered his nose and traveled down his throat – making him feel really uncomfortable. It would be a miracle if Chen Xiaobei could stay alive in that kind of place more than a minute.
"Shit! Am I really going to die here? This must be a joke! There are many things waiting for me to do… I cannot allow myself to die in a place like this…"
A sense of despair started to rise in his mind. It was not because he was a weakling. There was simply nothing he could do to help himself. Even an elite with Celestial cultivation would not survive in a situation like. Only a demigod that possessed the ability to control the weather was powerful enough to go against such a calamity!
"He… Hehehe…"
Suddenly, a creepy laugh could be heard from the shadows beneath Chen Xiaobei.
The creature then started to speak in Zoolingualism, "What kind of trash is that? When did such a weakling have the guts to invade my territory? You are going to die!"
"Eh? So, this chaotic sea current was caused by this sea monster?"
Considering that Chen Xiaobei had already mastered Zoolingualism, he could understand every single word that the sea monster had just said. However, he chose not to respond to him.
"Little shit! Stop struggling!"
"Is he talking to me? So, he could sense my presence in the sea?"
Thought Chen Xiaobei was in despair, it did not affect his thought process. An ordinary human being would have freaked out and given up to try to survive. Just as expected, Chen Xiaobei's deduction was correct.
"I can sense your presence! This chaotic sea current will not stop as long as you are still breathing! Stop struggling! You are just torturing yourself! I suggest you give up and just die!"
Upon hearing that, the light of hope was lit in Chen Xiaobei's heart.
"Now I know that this series of chaotic sea current is caused by this sea monster, all I need to do is kill it and bring peace back to this area! But, how am I supposed to get out from this ferocious sea current?"
"What a stubborn piece of trash! With your strength, it is simply not possible for you to fight against this sea current! I shall bring you death personally since you refuse to give up!"
*Rumble*
Right after the sea monster finished talking, it started to move even more vigorously. And the speed of sea current was boosted tremendously.
"F*ck! That was not his full strength?"
Feeling dizzy, Chen Xiaobei could feel that he was stuck inside a tornado. Seemingly the sea current was going to rip his bones apart.
"That sea monster is right! It is definitely not possible to break out from this sea current with only human strength!"
Still, Chen Xiaobei's state of mind was still really calm in this life and death situation. Because he refused to give up, he finally figured out something to save himself.
"Since it's not possible to rely on human strength to fight this sea current, I shall bring forth divine strength to stop this chaos! Red Envelope Group!"
Just like figuring out the Dao path, Chen Xiaobei had taken a long time to find a way to overcome this dreadful problem. However, once he hit the right spot, he would be able to connect all the dots in his mind together and solve the problem.
"My mind is acting really funny just now! How can I forget that I have managed to snatch something that could be used in the water yesterday? I have to act quickly now! Let me see what the item does in water!"
Ding!
[Hydrophobic Orb: It was crafted by the Third Prince of East Sea Dragon King. Upon consuming it, you will be able to acquire the high-tier skills of water creatures! You will be able to breathe normally and talk inside the water! Other than that, you will be granted immunity from all kind of sea calamities! Do you wish to withdraw it?]
"Damn! This is exactly the things that I need right now! Withdraw! I need it now!"
With his sheer will, a white pearl was being withdrawn from his Infinite Space Ring and appeared in Chen Xiaobei's palm. Immediately, Chen Xiaobei swallowed it without saying anything.
"This is going to be so awesome!"
Having to shake his body involuntarily, Chen Xiaobei could feel the difference that brought forth by the Hydrophobic Orb.
*Whoosh!*
Once Chen Xiaobei exhaled, all the sands and seawater was flushed out from his nose. After that, no more sand and seawater entered his body. The most magical part was Chen Xiaobei could not breathe in the sea like he was on the land.
Right! You heard it right!
He now possessed the ability to separate oxygen from the seawater and supply to his body.
"This is way more comfortable now!"
Being able to breathe normally again, Chen Xiaobei let out a long sigh. The moment he opened his mouth, all the seawater was completely blocked from entering his mouth. It was as if there was an invisible barrier surrounded him.
"This is so freaking awesome! Glad I have this Hydrophobic Orb with me!"
The thing that he felt most excited about the orb was the final ability granted to Chen Xiaobei.
Immune from all the sea calamities.
All the sea pressure and sea current around him was completely disappeared. At that moment, Chen Xiabei could feel that there was no seawater around him even though he was still in the sea. And the most magical part was Chen Xiaobei did not lose the ability to float in seawater and fell to the bottom of the sea. In other words, the Hydrophobic Orb allows him to control the sea pressure, resistance, and floating ability.
Seawater would become his most reliable partner if he could master all his ability.
"Just like the saying goes, Good things and bad things are often connected with each other! It's actually a bad thing that I managed to snatch so many Red Envelopes! I almost forgot that I have the awesome Hydrophobic Orb with me! If I die here, I will experience more injustice than Dou E 1
After surviving the life threatening situation, Chen Xiaobei was finally relieved.
Tonight, he managed to snatch eighteen Red Envelopes. Right after that, he went and deal with some other small matters. Following by that, he went ahead to make love with Song Qincheng. Until he dived into the sea, Chen Xiaobei did not even have time to check on all the items that he acquired just now.
"Eh? Why are you still not dead? Let me give in more strength to speed up your death! I will respect you as a true man if you manage to hang in there for another half minute!" said the sea monster in disdain.
Clearly, he did not treat Chen Xiaobei as his proper opponent. In other words, it just underestimated Chen Xiaobei. That was the good thing about Chen Xiaobei forgot about his Hydrophobic Orb earlier!
*Swoosh*
A pitch black combat saber appeared in Chen Xiaobei's hand. He then dove toward the sea monster and the Chaos Sword Essence was following right behind him.
"Garbage! Die now! Hahaha…"
The sea monster was laughing out loud. It would not expect that Chen Xiaobei was laughing at it as well.
Someone or something was going to die! Chen Xiaobei was definitely not the one! Dou E, who is wrongly convicted of crimes by a corrupt court official for actions perpetrated by a rejected suitor, Mule Zhang. After her execution, three prophesied phenomena occur to prove her innocence, including blood raining from the sky, snow in June and a three-year drought.
