97: A monster with teleporting abilities?

"Fire Finch Feather!"

Jia Gu Yi Yan continued to unleash Fire Finch Feather, incinerating the endless fish corpses that approached him.

Meanwhile, Mermaid Miss on the deck seemed to be searching for something, scanning the fish corpses on the sea surface.

"Careful!"

She suddenly yelled.

Just then, a fish corpse on the sea surface suddenly leaped up, opened its large mouth, and from within, a scaly claw extended, striking towards Jia Gu Yi Yan's neck.

Alerted by the Mermaid, Jia Gu Yi Yan had already become vigilant.

Facing the extended claw, he moved his body, leaving only a scattered flame afterimage in his original spot.

Jia Gu Yi Yan then somersaulted, activating his Basic Breathing Technique.

In an instant, his body glowed with brilliant fiery light as he stepped onto the sea surface.

He couldn't let the enemy be drawn to the Jennice, lest it affect others.

However, the moment Jia Gu Yi Yan landed on the sea surface, a fish corpse beneath him opened its mouth again.

Another claw extended from the fish's mouth, grabbing towards Jia Gu Yi Yan's legs.

This guy...

He can transmit parts of his body through the mouths of these fish corpses to attack!

It's this kind of ability!

However...

"I already realized your ability!"

"I've been waiting for this moment!"

Flames instantly surged from Jia Gu Yi Yan's legs, coiling around them!

Then, he stomped down fiercely towards the claw below!

As early as the monster's first attack through a fish's mouth, Jia Gu Yi Yan had already suspected that it possessed space-related abilities.

And he had been guarding against all the fish corpses.

Wary of the monster attacking him from the mouths of other fish corpses, he had preemptively activated his Basic Breathing Technique to gather strength.

All for this moment!

Bang!

Boom!

Brilliant flames surged as Jia Gu Yi Yan's leg descended, rapidly exploding on the sea surface and rushing outwards in all directions.

Countless fish corpses floating on the sea surface, centered around where Jia Gu Yi Yan landed, were engulfed by the incinerating flames, turning into swirling ashes that merged with the ocean!

However...

"It failed."

Jia Gu Yi Yan looked at the fish corpses that had been burned to ashes by the flames.

His attack missed.

Even with prior calculation, it still missed.

This guy is incredibly fast, able to instantly teleport his body between fish mouths.

At the same time, he is also very cautious.

He simply doesn't give Jia Gu Yi Yan any opportunity to attack.

If he wasn't mistaken...

This guy's body is hidden within the mouths of these countless fish.

He can instantly teleport and switch locations.

He simply won't give him a chance to hit.

And it also makes him...

Unable to find his true body!

Jia Gu Yi Yan clenched his fists, feeling incredibly troublesome inside.

But... his soaring fighting spirit was not affected in the slightest!

The more desperate the situation, the stronger the opponent.

The more excited Jia Gu Yi Yan would become.

He was inherently a person who loved to fight, and he enjoyed the feeling of battling powerful enemies.

"I really should be more cautious."

"I almost got my arm burned. This pervert's speed, reaction, and combat intuition are truly dangerous."

An eye hidden in a fish corpse's mouth watched Jia Gu Yi Yan, who was floating in the air and scanning his surroundings, becoming even more vigilant.

Although he was certain that the power of the recent attack couldn't threaten him in the ocean.

He still didn't want to confront Jia Gu Yi Yan head-on.

He still intended to continuously wear down Jia Gu Yi Yan, forcing out more information from him before fighting.

Or rather...

Never fight him head-on, just continuously wear him down from the side until he dies...

"Such a combat strategy also seems quite good."

However...

"Who is that woman? Why was she able to detect my attack ahead of time?"

The monster transferred an eyeball into the mouth of a fish corpse near the Jennice, observing Mermaid Miss on the Jennice.

And just as he transferred, that Mermaid suddenly turned her head, her eyes fixed on the fish mouth he had transferred to.

"!!!"

The monster quickly transferred away from that area!

"How is this possible? I was actually detected!"

"What the hell is that woman? How could she possibly detect my ability!"

The monster's heart nearly jumped out of its chest from fright.

Being vigilant to a certain extent, in another sense, means being timid.

Even when facing a battle he was ninety percent sure to win, he would cautiously fight from the side.

He would only fight when truly desperate and forced to.

And since he became a monster, such a situation has never occurred, not even once!

"No, everything is under my control. That woman is just a small interlude."

"However, I must eliminate her!"

The monster transferred two eyeballs into two different fish mouths, observing Jia Gu Yi Yan's movements from two directions.

At this moment, Jia Gu Yi Yan was using a clumsy method, continuously launching large-scale attacks with Fire Finch Feather.

'Damn it, there are more and more!'

'Is he trying to wear me down?'

Jia Gu Yi Yan looked at the constantly gathering fish corpses and understood the monster's intention hidden behind them.

To use these fish corpses to deplete his stamina.

And at the same time, showcase his abilities, preventing him from dispelling his transformation.

Because, once he dispelled his transformation and returned to human form to recover stamina,

It was likely that in that instant, the opponent would teleport through these fish corpses and attack him.

In that case...

Jia Gu Yi Yan took a deep breath, operating the Basic Breathing Technique to its limit, every cell in his body enhanced by the power of the breathing technique.

His bulging lungs were like a furnace, circulating power throughout his body, and surging flames continuously rose from his clenched fists, enveloping both arms and covering his shoulders.

"Burning Form, Fire Finch Feather Burst!"

"Break break break break break!!"

Floating in the air, his fists aimed at the countless fish corpses on the sea surface, his arms, in the Fire Finch's rapid punching, left countless afterimages and residual flames in the air.

In an instant, countless flames shot out from his phantom-like fists, transforming into a sky full of feathers, radiating across the entire sea surface.

Each feather that landed on the sea surface created a miniature mushroom cloud, shattering the surrounding fish corpses, and the aftermath swept fragments and ashes outwards, creating waves.

As the last punch landed, Jia Gu Yi Yan let out a long breath.

Then...

He punched again, and countless Fire Finch Feathers fell once more.

"It's useless, useless, just keep depleting your stamina!"

"These fish corpses, this sea area, there are as many as you want!"

The monster watched Jia Gu Yi Yan punching with all his might, completely unconcerned.

More and more fish corpses emerged from the seabed, swimming towards the Jennice's position.

Jia Gu Yi Yan stopped punching, looking at the fish corpses that once again filled his vision, breathing heavily.

But soon, he adjusted his breathing again, rapidly thinking of a countermeasure.

There were too many fish.

With such passive attacks, even if four of him died of exhaustion, he couldn't harm the monster in the slightest.

If there was some way to lure the monster out.
