Chapter 4971: 5.0723 Chaos Appears

"Ah!" A shriek suddenly erupted from the ship.

A young woman, dressed in a lake-green gauze dress, sitting at the bow of the ship and enjoying tea in the wind, couldn't help but cry out. She was peacefully sitting there, admiring the beautiful scenery of the sea, only to be drenched head-to-toe by an overwhelming wave. Her face immediately darkened.

"Watch out!" A short-bearded, strong middle-aged man suddenly burst out from the side, blocking the young woman with his sword. He swiftly unleashed a divine power, rushing towards the monstrous beast opposite.

Six legs, four wings, its entire body enveloped in raging flames. The gigantic beast's body was as robust as a small hill, towering majestically before everyone. Its terrifying size sent shivers down their spines.

A hint of astonishment appeared in the strong man's eyes. He muttered something, then swept his palm, and a longsword instantly appeared in his hand. He swung the sword horizontally, and the sword light, imbued with divine power, charged towards the colossal beast that was crashing towards them.

Alas, it was like a mayfly trying to shake a tree; this minuscule power was utterly insignificant before the beast.

The giant beast surged up from beneath the water, tearing open the waves with a single claw. With a loud "splash," the sea water parted, and the entire ship was torn in half by its single claw.

The woman in the green gauze dress couldn't help but shriek again. With the surging giant wave, she was heavily slammed into the water.

The short-bearded strong man's eyes widened. He yelled, "Miss!" and then quickly leaped into the water, rushing to rescue the young woman.

Who knew that the giant beast would roll and thrash back and forth in the sea, sending colossal waves continuously rolling forward. "Splash, splash," the water moved violently.

The frightened sailors who had fallen into the water screamed, desperately struggling in the sea, trying to get away from the giant beast as quickly as possible. However, they were so small. The moment the giant beast rolled in the water, with a single inhale and exhale, it sucked several sailors to its mouth, tearing them apart effortlessly with a claw.

The woman in the green gauze dress was submerged in the water, her entire face distorted with terror. She frantically flapped at the water, dog-paddling with all her might, continuously shrieking, "Mr. Shen, Mr. Shen..."

The short-bearded strong man grew anxious. He leaped out of the water in a quick movement, found an opening, flew a few steps through the air, and swiftly reached the side of the woman in the green gauze dress, pulling her out. The man ascended with the woman, rapidly launching themselves into the air.

However, the next second, a sky-high wave struck them again, slamming them both back into the sea. The enraged roar of the giant beast echoed in their ears.

The woman in the green gauze dress turned her head to look, nearly dropping her jaw in shock. She was practically within arm's reach of the giant beast. She could lift her eyes and see the colossal face of the beast, enveloped in flames, its features distorted, its eyes like bronze bells.

The woman in the green gauze dress shivered, her entire body trembling uncontrollably.

"Go!" The man made a decisive decision, pulling the woman in the green gauze dress, and leaped out of the water again.

"Mr. Shen, we..."

"Splash!" Several giant waves heavily slammed down on the two of them. The two unlucky souls were completely unable to resist this overwhelming force, and they were slammed back to the bottom of the sea by the surging waves. The woman in the green gauze dress even gulped down several mouthfuls of water, feeling quite unwell.

"Damn it," the strong man cursed under his breath, his face also becoming exceptionally grim. He hadn't expected to encounter such a crisis on this trip to the Sea of Wangchuan. He looked up and saw that several sailors had all perished in this disaster.
