Chapter 16
Devouring the Ghost Shark!
The moment the words left his mouth, the air seemed to freeze.
Jiang Han slightly turned the blade of the black gold ancient sword in his hand, reflecting a chilling light that pierced straight at the pale, swollen face.
A man and a python faced off, separated by a distance of more than ten meters.
The 30 million viewers in the live stream held their breath, and the chat window experienced a strange gap in that instant.
Everyone thought that the next second would be a cataclysmic battle.
however.
"Giggle giggle..."
The enormous human face suddenly split open.
The muscles at the corners of his mouth were pulled unnaturally toward his ears, revealing a dense array of barbed teeth that resembled a meat grinder.
It's laughing.
The voice was high-pitched and childish, yet it also had a hoarse quality like a broken bellows, much like a baby being choked and crying in the middle of the night.
"Holy crap! My ears!"
"Is that thing laughing? Did it understand the streamer's sarcasm?!"
"Stop talking, I'm getting goosebumps all over, my sanity is plummeting!"
"Run, streamer! It's charging up!"
Jiang Han did not move.
His golden vertical pupils narrowed slightly, and his muscles were taut to the extreme.
Instead of retreating, he took a step forward, his knife tip pointing upwards, his provocation palpable.
But the Netherworld Python did not pounce.
Its dead-fish-like eyes rolled for a moment, seemingly with a hint of mockery, before it suddenly jerked its scaly neck back.
"Splash—!!!"
The water surface exploded again.
A huge, dark shadow was dragged ashore from the deep water!
"That is..."
Jiang Han's pupils suddenly contracted.
That was a shark.
But it's definitely not an ordinary shark.
It was seven or eight meters long, its entire body was deathly white, it had no skin, and its bare bones were directly exposed. Its dorsal fin was covered with barbs like steel nails, and its eye sockets were sunken and burning with eerie green phosphorescence.
White Bone Ghost Shark!
This thing is called a variant of "Henggong Fish" in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. It eats water ghosts and is extremely ferocious!
But in the mouth of the Nine Netherworld Python, this infamous ghost shark was like a spicy snack.
"Snap!"
A sharp, teeth-grinding crack.
The Nine Netherworld Python's human-faced maw snapped shut, crushing the Ghost Shark's hardest skull.
The black blood plasma burst open instantly, splattering onto the surrounding rock walls and making a sizzling, corrosive sound.
"Crunch... crunch..."
The sound of chewing.
Slippery, sticky, accompanied by the crackling sound of bones shattering.
The pale face chewed while staring intently at Jiang Han.
Black blood flowed down its mouth, staining its half-smiling face red, creating an extremely eerie scene.
It is eating.
In front of their prey, they cruelly torture and kill another prey.
This is a form of showing off.
It is also a form of silent intimidation.
[System Warning! Target Creature Danger Level: Zombie King!]
[High concentration of cadaveric toxin detected!]
[It is recommended that the host attack the area between its eyebrows, its only weakness!]
Jiang Han watched this scene with a cold expression.
Unlike ordinary people who would be terrified and weak-kneed, he felt a long-lost excitement amidst the bloody chewing sounds.
"You have a good appetite."
Jiang Han spoke calmly, his voice echoing in the empty cave, "But the way they eat is too unsightly."
The viewers in the live stream were going crazy.
[Dude! Can you please stop commenting on our eating habits right now?!]
After it finishes eating that shark, you're next!
This mental fortitude... I would call it godlike!
Where are the people from Bureau 749? Do these monsters really exist on Earth?
Less than two minutes.
The enormous white-boned ghost shark was completely devoured, leaving not even a trace.
The Netherworld Python, still seemingly unsatisfied, stretched out its scarlet forked tongue and licked the human face at the corner of its mouth.
It looked at Jiang Han again.
The look in his eyes was no longer mocking, but a deeper, more sinister greed.
That was the look in their eyes when they saw a higher-level supplement.
Jiang Han, who had eaten the Tai Sui, was, in its eyes, a walking "human flesh Da Dan"!
"hold head high--"
It let out a low growl, and its massive body slowly writhed, causing the ground to crumble and scatter.
Jiang Han's fingers, gripping the knife, turned slightly white.
Is it coming?
however.
Just when everyone thought a great battle was about to break out, the Nine Netherworld Python suddenly stopped.
It seemed to sense something, and a trace of extremely human-like fear appeared on that human face.
It took a deep look at the Qilin tattoo on Jiang Han's back, and then slowly retreated.
The enormous body silently slid into the water.
Black ripples spread across the water's surface, but it quickly returned to calm.
gone?
The live stream room was completely silent.
What followed was a frenzy of comments erupting in the live chat.
[Holy crap? They ran away in fear?]
[Jiang Shen's killer gaze?]
Something's not right! This thing doesn't look like the type to back down!
Are you full?
Jiang Han remained vigilant.
He remained in the knife-holding posture for a full minute.
Only after confirming that there was no more movement on the water did he slowly exhale a breath of stale air.
"They haven't gone far."
Jiang Han sheathed his sword, but his hand never left the hilt.
He stared intently at the shocking black bloodstains and remaining bits of flesh on the shore.
"It's not afraid of me."
"It's wary of the smell on me."
"The taste of Qilin blood."
In that instant, the Qilin bloodline within him surged wildly, seemingly about to burst forth. The suppression from the bloodline of a superior being made that beast feel uneasy.
But this suppression can only last for a short time.
Once it realizes that Jiang Han's current strength is not enough to fully control the Qilin Blood, it will immediately launch a counterattack.
"Get out of here before it comes back, streamer!"
"Yeah, that's right! Know when to quit while you're ahead! This live stream today is legendary!"
Stop wasting your time! Staying alive is the most important thing!
Seeing the screen full of comments discouraging viewers from leaving, Jiang Han suddenly laughed.
That smile carried a hint of incomprehensible madness.
"withdraw?"
He turned his head and looked at the stench-filled shore.
"They ate the food on my turf, how can they not leave some interest?"
Under the horrified gazes of everyone.
Jiang Han actually started walking and headed towards the shore where the horrific massacre had just taken place!
