Chapter 260: Second Encounter
Inside the hotel, it was the dead of night.
A wave of fatigue washed over Li Feng. He didn’t think any further.
He put away his phone and went straight to bed, falling into a deep sleep.
Without breaking through to the Awakened level, continuing to grind dungeons wouldn’t yield any experience. He might as well rest.
While he slept, his Immortal Sword Body was also working. The injuries Li Feng sustained from the battle were continuously healing at an astonishing rate.
Early the next morning.
Li Feng woke up, feeling completely refreshed. He looked down at his skin and found it to be even more fair and tender. He poked it with his finger and felt an amazing elasticity.
After checking his body and confirming that everything was fine, he washed his face and went out for breakfast.
It wasn’t until noon that Shang Qing came looking for him.
He was dressed very plainly today, in a black tunic suit and wearing old-fashioned glasses. It was quite ostentatious because, after reaching the Awakened level, minor ailments like presbyopia were long gone.
Shang Qing wearing such glasses was clearly to make himself look more cultured. This left both Li Feng and Luo Yunyang somewhat speechless.
“Li Feng, I won’t be accompanying you to the Shang family this time. After what happened with the Li family, there shouldn’t be many people who dare to target you. Even if someone does want to make a move, they’ll probably wait until this period has passed. Nevertheless, you still need to be careful and not fall into any traps,” Luo Yunyang said.
He had already been away from the Luo family for a month and had many matters waiting for him to handle. He couldn’t keep accompanying Li Feng.
In his opinion, Li Feng staying in Daqian City was the safest option.
Li Feng nodded. “Don’t worry, I can take care of myself.”
He had the resurrection skill, which was his biggest trump card. At the very least, even Destruction level experts couldn’t kill him instantly.
Of course, the main reason was that he had a chance to summon the Mechanical Overlord. This was the source of his confidence in venturing out.
If he couldn’t seize this opportunity, he didn’t know when he would be able to reach the limit of his attribute points.
“With the protection of our Shang family, I wouldn’t be afraid even if the Li family came. Mayor Luo, you can rest assured. I guarantee that Li Feng will leave our Shang family safe and sound. If anyone is foolish enough to make a move, they will only end up as prey for our Shang family.” At the end of his sentence, Shang Qing’s killing intent was evident.
The Shang family was a colossal entity. They were based in the mainland and also had two Destruction level experts in their family. Their internal forces were intricate and complex. Once they mobilized, the power they could unleash far exceeded everyone’s imagination.
If someone really jumped out along the way, he would welcome it. He could demonstrate the strength of his family and maybe even trick Li Feng into marrying into their family.
Luo Yunyang smiled and said, “Naturally, I trust Elder Shang. It’s just that some people these days are really blind.”
The Shang family’s power was very unique. They always valued harmony and wouldn’t easily offend others. But if anyone thought they were easy to bully, they would be gravely mistaken.
Finally, he gave Li Feng a few more words of advice and then left, returning alone.
Li Feng and Shang Qing, on the other hand, arrived in front of a crimson airship.
This airship was huge, even more imposing than the Li family’s Silver Sword. The weapon systems mounted on it made even his back feel a little cold.
There were more than ten menacing cannon muzzles mounted on the top, bottom, left, and right of the airship, ready to unleash destructive power at any moment.
“How about it? Shocked speechless, right?” Shang Qing was a good person, but he liked to show off a bit. “This airship was built using a lot of Deep Blue Gold Sand. Even against Destruction level experts, it has a certain degree of resistance. As for Awakened level experts, they will die no matter how many come.”
“Deep Blue Gold Sand!”
◈◈◈
When Li Feng heard this term, his face showed a look of shock. He remembered Luo Yunyang saying that Deep Blue Gold Sand could be used to create weapons that threatened Destruction level experts.
He guessed that if this airship wasn’t so large and lacking in mobility, it might also be able to threaten Destruction level experts.
“Let’s go up. This journey will be absolutely safe.” Seeing Li Feng’s shocked expression, Shang Qing felt a little inflated.
Li Feng nodded. With such a huge thing, the journey would indeed be much safer.
After the two boarded the airship, it quickly took off.
Along the way, Shang Yan carefully introduced the weapon structure of this airship to Li Feng, all to show off the Shang family’s immense wealth.
“To build this airship, at least a billion in assets were spent. Some of the materials are priceless, even if some medium-sized families emptied their coffers, they might not be able to build it.”
“Wait, does going to your family require crossing the Great Heng Ocean? If so, I suggest we take a detour immediately.”
Li Feng interrupted him because he saw the familiar Great Heng Ocean and had a bad feeling.
“What’s wrong? Our family is in Flourishing City. Crossing the Great Heng Ocean is the fastest way,” Shang Qing asked, puzzled.
He didn’t understand. With this airship, why would the other party still worry about problems? So he smiled and reassured him, “Don’t worry! Sitting on this airship, I won’t say it’s the safest place, but in this small Great Heng Ocean, there is no existence that can shoot down our airship…”
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw a giant whale leap out of the Great Heng Ocean, creating waves thousands of meters high, as if it could block out the sun in the sky.
The whale’s body was enormous. Even just looking at its tail, its size exceeded that of the airship.
At this moment, everyone on the airship was frozen, unable to control their bodies. A sense of impending death loomed in their minds.
Boom!
Luckily, the giant whale had no intention of attacking them. It fell back into the Great Heng Ocean, creating a giant wave like a city wall curtain. Countless fish and shrimp were thrown out of the sea. The scene was spectacular.
This was the second time Li Feng had seen this giant whale, and he was still filled with indescribable shock.
This was a creature with Source level strength. To him, it had a kind of oppressive force that transcended his very being.
“Detour, quickly detour, fly out of the Great Heng Ocean.” Shang Qing’s face was pale, and he no longer cared about showing off. He roared.
Then, with lingering fear, he said, “What the h*ll is that thing? Even sitting on this airship, I don’t feel safe at all. It’s as if my life is in its hands.”
“I don’t know. When I took the Li family’s airship across the Great Heng Ocean, I saw it once. Including this time, it’s the second time,” Li Feng said.
This giant whale’s strength certainly didn’t suddenly increase. It must have lived in the Great Heng Ocean for a long time. But neither the Li family nor the Shang family had ever seen this kind of creature before.
This made him have a bad premonition. Its frequent appearance might be related to certain events, which could affect the entire Sky Blue Star.
“There’s actually such a dangerous thing in the Great Heng Ocean.” After the airship flew out of the Great Heng Ocean, Shang Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, with some excitement, he said, “The strength of this creature far exceeds any Destruction level expert I’ve seen. It might have reached a terrifying level. This is very valuable for research.”
He recalled that sense of threat, which even Destruction level experts couldn’t give him. The strength of this creature was definitely above the Destruction level. If they could research it, they might find a way to break through the Destruction level.
