Abyss Race!

Gollum-

Underwater, there was only suffocating darkness.

As soon as Jiang Han entered the water, he felt the surrounding currents become violent.

The water pressure all around felt like a hydraulic press squeezing me to death; my eardrums felt like they were going to burst, and my head was buzzing.

He clenched his jaw so hard that his pores on his body seemed to explode in the icy water.

Every nerve was taut like a fully drawn bowstring, not daring to relax even a little.

After that earth-patterned corpse turtle entered the water, it was as if it had become a completely different species.

Its bulky limbs were transformed into powerful paddles, and its flat tortoise shell became the best streamlined submarine.

The speed is astonishing!

Jiang Han held her breath.

The Qilin bloodline was circulating wildly within his body, providing him with a continuous supply of oxygen and heat.

He did not go upstream.

Because he knew that trying to outrun this thing in the water was suicidal.

He can only make use of the terrain.

"Whoosh—!"

A dark shadow swept past him.

Those are the giant tortoise's claws.

The water flow alone caused Jiang Han's cheeks to sting, and a tear appeared in his diving suit, from which a trickle of blood instantly seeped out.

Bloody smell!

This is the best stimulant for underwater predators.

This slight smell of blood is like pouring cold water into boiling oil.

The old giant tortoise twitched its nostrils and made a strange "huffing" sound from its throat like a broken bellows, its saliva mixing with the murky river water.

They looked as if they wanted to chew the person up and swallow them whole, clothes and all.

The giant tortoise suddenly turned around, its scarlet eyes leaving two afterimages in the dark water.

It opened its mouth wide, revealing a mouthful of fangs like saw teeth, and bit down hard on Jiang Han's waist.

If you bite down hard enough...

Forget about being cut in half, the whole person would be turned into mincemeat.

Jiang Han's eyes narrowed.

He twisted his waist forcefully in the water, his black gold ancient sword piercing the rock wall beside him, and used the force to roll over.

Click!

The giant tortoise bit down on the spot where he had just been standing.

It bit the hard rock and crushed it, the fragments exploding in the water and hitting Jiang Han like shotgun pellets.

"That beast!"

The impact crashed down with the waves, and Jiang Han felt as if he had been hit in the chest with a hammer, followed by a sweet taste in his throat.

His fingers were numb from the vibration, and the tearing pain in the web of his hand made his eyes twitch violently. The force was ridiculously strong; his bones felt like they were about to fall apart!

Jiang Han cursed inwardly.

too fast!

Moreover, this thing is even more agile in the water than that corpse dragon!

It was like a biological torpedo with teeth, biting down on Jiang Han and refusing to let go.

escape!

We have no choice but to run!

Jiang Han kicked off the rock wall with both legs, like a fish swimming wildly through the intricate underground river channels.

Behind him, an immense sense of oppression followed him like a shadow.

Every time I turned around, I could see that terrifying gaping mouth only a few centimeters away from the soles of my feet.

The live stream camera shook violently, startling viewers so much that they dropped their phones, and several felt a sudden wetness and chill in their crotches.

The comments section went blank; everyone had only one thought in their minds: "It's over. We're really going to become turtle food now, and we won't even have a complete corpse!"

"Splash—"

The water was turbulent.

The giant tortoise seemed to have grown tired of this cat-and-mouse game.

It suddenly accelerated, its limbs paddling at a speed so fast that it was invisible to the naked eye.

A tremendous suction force came, and Jiang Han felt his body being uncontrollably pushed backward.

That's the eddy created by the giant turtle opening its mouth to suck in water!

"Want to eat me?"

"I'll break your teeth!"

A ruthless glint flashed in Jiang Han's eyes.

He stopped running away and instead turned around, gripping the black gold ancient sword tightly with both hands, the tip of the blade aimed at the ever-approaching, gaping maw.

Since there's no way to escape...

Then let's go for it!

Even if it means death, I'll still shove a hole in your mouth!

Five meters!

Three meters!

one meter!

The giant tortoise's foul breath had already sprayed onto Jiang Han's face.

The veins on the back of his hand bulged out like earthworms, and his knuckles were pale and bloodless.

He stared intently at the interlocking fangs, his eyelids unblinking, and he could even see the bits of rotten flesh between the teeth.

The stench assaulted my senses, making my brain feel like it was about to boil; the knife in my hand was my last lifeline.

In the live stream, countless people closed their eyes in fear, unable to bear watching this bloody scene.

however.

At this critical moment.

Just as Jiang Han was about to thrust his knife out.

collapse--!

A muffled, deafening roar exploded underwater.

The sound was like a heavy hammer striking a bronze bell, causing the surrounding waters to tremble.

The giant tortoise, which had been so aggressive and about to devour Jiang Han, was suddenly pulled back as if by an invisible hand.

Its body suddenly stopped.

The immense inertia caused its head to tilt backward, its neck being constricted and deformed.

The bronze chain snapped and creaked, and green rust crumbled off.

The old tortoise's tongue was stretched out half a foot long, and its bloodshot eyes bulged as if they were about to pop out.

He flailed his limbs wildly, looking as pathetic as a mangy dog ​​being strangled, all traces of his earlier arrogance gone.

"roar--!"

A painful roar turned into a string of huge bubbles in the water.

Jiang Han was stunned.

He floated in the water, watching this incredible scene unfold before him.

Behind the giant tortoise, a thick bronze chain was now taut and straight!

One end of the chain was deeply embedded in its shell, even growing into its flesh.

On the other end, it plunges into unfathomable darkness.

It was tethered.

It was like a watchdog, chained up in this dark and sunless underground river.

That fatal blow was abruptly stopped because the chain had reached its limit!

The giant tortoise struggled frantically.

It paddled wildly with its limbs, stirring up the river water until it became extremely muddy.

It was unwilling to accept this!

The prey was right in front of them, just a hair's breadth away!

It charged again and again, only to be mercilessly pulled back by the chains each time.

The bronze chain emitted a teeth-grinding scraping sound, yet it never broke.

As Jiang Han watched this scene, her heart was still pounding, but a smile slowly appeared on her lips.

He sheathed his knife and swam to a safe distance of only half a meter from the giant turtle's mouth.

Looking at that face of impotent rage.

He stretched out his hand and made a throat-slitting gesture at his neck.

"You run pretty fast?"

He sneered inwardly. Although he couldn't speak underwater, his eyes said it all.

"pity."

"You're on a chain."

"No matter how fierce it is, it's just a watchdog."

The giant tortoise seemed to understand Jiang Han's sarcasm.

It roared even more frantically, its scarlet eyes almost dripping blood.

But Jiang Han had lost interest in playing with it.

He glanced one last time at the taut bronze chain, a thoughtful glint in his eyes.

then.

Turn around and float to the surface.

Leaving behind that colossal beast, roaring in despair in the dark abyss.
