Witch, I'm really not an ancient god of the deep sea!

Chapter 379 Can she really do it?

Why is it hitting me? The Ice Witch raised her head, and a pair of bloodshot red eyes reflected in her pupils!
Their eyes met, and in that instant, the Ice Witch sensed an intense killing intent!
Wait, could he have done this on purpose?
A hint of doubt flashed through the Ice Witch's mind.

But soon, the wise woman understood everything.

The Black Hunter couldn't have done it on purpose; it was for the greater good!

This attack can also clear out the raging snow dragons and protect some of the crew.

Secondly, on this vast ocean, there is no sharper or harder material than the Ghost of the Underworld.

If a wall is needed to beat up the Dragon King, the Ghost of the Underworld is undoubtedly the most suitable wall!

"This guy's mind is pretty clear even in his berserk state..." the Ice Witch thought to herself.

However, did he overlook a crucial element?

I'm still at the bow! The Ice Witch's eyes darted around rapidly.

In that brief moment, everyone instinctively distanced themselves, completely ignoring her.

And she was positioned right in the center of the attack!
After all, she is an elegant ice witch.

How could an elegant witch be injured?
boom!
The shockwave from the battle between Blizzard Dragon King and Dawn surged down.

Click!

At the last moment, the Ice Witch snapped her fingers, activating time stop.

brush!
A kinetic statue depicting a hunter battling a dragon was placed above her head.

The Dragon King's blood-stained head was only one centimeter away from her.

"so close……"

"As expected of me!"

A bead of cold sweat trickled down the Ice Witch's face, and a smile crept onto her lips.

She was almost hit.

The Ice Witch wiped the cold sweat from her brow.

"That wretched little black-haired guy! He didn't even warn me beforehand!"

The Ice Witch frowned, raised her right hand high, and gave Chen Qi a big middle finger.

Why does it feel like he's glaring at me? The Ice Witch was taken aback.

She shook her head, adjusted her position, gracefully stood on the side of the boat, and then snapped her fingers again.

Click!

As the Ice Witch's long, silvery hair danced in the wind, time began to flow once more.

Boom!

The Blizzard Dragon King's massive body slammed into the sharp bow of the ship, sending crimson dragon scales flying.

In that instant, the Blizzard Dragon King landed on its back, its limbs outstretched, its vulnerable white belly fully exposed to view!
The proud dragon king who ruled the ice plains had eyes filled with confusion and pain, and let out a frantic wail.

However, faced with the mournful cries of the White Dragon King, the terrifying crimson gleam in Chen Qi's eyes did not diminish at all; on the contrary, it made him even more pleased.

"Come again!"

"More, more!"

"More and more and more!"

Ignoring the body's cries of pain, Chen Qi's eight 20-meter-long tentacles on his back coalesced into an incomparably sharp spear, gathering steel-like blade energy, and pierced towards the Blizzard Dragon King's chest like a dense downpour!
The Dragon King's heart, located in his chest, is his vulnerable spot!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The entire ship was accompanied by a deafening roar as it shattered.

This guy's fighting style... The Ice Witch tried her best to maintain an elegant figure by the side of the ship.

This was the first time she had seen Chen Qi fight with all his might.

A dragon king, just like a pitiful little thing in the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom, was tied to the ground and rubbed hard.

As a Saint-level Dragon King, this is truly pathetic, an insult to the strength of a fifth-tier monster... The Ice Witch's lips curled into a faint smile.

However, before she could fully analyze Chen Qi's fighting style...

brush!
Suddenly, a piece of ice scale grazed her face.

The Blizzard Dragon King's chest rose and fell like a boiler, emitting an unprecedentedly dazzling white light, and a continuous stream of cold air emanated from its chest!
The last bit of energy!

The Blizzard Dragon King angrily bit its fangs, using all its strength to break free from the Black Hunter's restraints!

Chen Qi did not back down at all, and clenched his fists.

No need to back up!

Force against force!

Blade against blade!

In that instant, bright red blood gushed from Chen Qi's body, accompanied by an unprecedented roar.

The two sources of spiritual power, the Heart and the Wrath of the Blade, also unleashed their final power!

A scorching red wave of air suddenly spread out.

With boundless brute force, Chen Qi used the same trick again, grabbing the blood-red tentacles with both arms and pulling the Blizzard Dragon King down from the sky, slamming him once more towards the Ice Witch's location!
"???"

Again?

The Ice Witch opened her mouth wide, looking like a kitten bewildered in the wind.

Unlike ordinary superhumans, she can activate her domain without consuming spiritual power, and she can activate it repeatedly!
Nevertheless, activating the domain twice in a row still requires a certain amount of reaction time.

The Ice Witch has discovered that the hunter and the dragon are fighting without treating her as an ally!
Boom!

Suddenly, Chen Qi, like a scarlet afterimage, rushed past her right side, whipping her hair around.

Then, the Blizzard Dragon King's body, bound by tentacles and accompanied by boundless crimson shockwaves, rushed towards her like a falling meteorite!

Click!

The Ice Witch activated time stop and attempted to escape.

However, the shockwave had already impacted her body!

Like a bowling ball hit by a blast of air, the Ice Witch's frail body, weighing less than 90 pounds, tumbled repeatedly on the deck!

Bang! Bang!boom!
Her head hit the deck repeatedly, making a particularly crisp sound.

Finally, the Ice Witch landed on her neck, her buttocks sticking up high in the air like a curled-up worm, with a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of her nose!
Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

Her body was too fragile after being revived in the Witch's Coffin.

In that instant, she, the strongest witch, was like a grunt wounded in the battle between two supreme beings!

Still a super little grunt with his butt sticking out!

"Damn it, damn it..."

The Ice Witch regained her footing, slammed her fist on the deck, and looked at the frozen hunter and dragon:
"What a disgrace, what a disgrace!"

"I've made a note of this, Little Black Hair!"

The Ice Witch laboriously extended her right hand, wiped away the blood from her nose, and reached a safe position.

Then he gave the little black hairy boy the middle finger!
As an elegant witch, she would never forget this!

Fortunately, she managed to freeze time at the last moment!

Otherwise, the elegant woman would have had to make such an unsightly appearance in front of everyone.

However, Chen Qi was able to unleash such terrifying spiritual power at the last moment.

The Ice Witch gazed at the horrifying scene before her.

All around the hunter and the dragon were turbulent waves of energy, like ink wash painting, which stained the world red.

Under normal circumstances, both ordinary spiritual power and physical strength are invisible and colorless!
However, after spiritual power is sublimated, ordinary spiritual power without control becomes visible.

With the release of the Blade Phase, the surging spiritual energy field, like a red wave of beasts, ran rampant on the ship!
If he continues to grow, there is no doubt that he will surpass Finn and become the first among their new generation to reach the fifth rank!

This guy… The Ice Witch couldn’t help but recall the image of fate once again.

Fate sometimes misses out on some insignificant beings, some people with dice-like fortune.

No one in this world can escape the divination of fate.

Those who are blurred in the image of fate are all insignificant beings.

Such an important person, yet, vanished without a trace in the unfolding drama of fate.

Could it be that he is destined to die? Therefore, he had no significant impact on fate? Did fate simply ignore him?
It's necessary to perform a revised divination... The Ice Witch put away her mocking expression contorted with pain, returned to her icy demeanor, and then snapped her fingers again.

Click!

Time flows again.

Chen Qi's red eyes moved, glaring at the Ice Witch, before unleashing all his killing intent upon the struggling Blizzard Dragon King.

boom!
The body of the Blizzard Dragon King was once again slammed into the frozen sea by Dawn.

There's no need to hold back, and no need to care about your own body!
war!
Chen Qi didn't give the Blizzard Dragon King a chance to struggle. The twelve tentacles behind him twisted and intertwined, then snapped shut, forming a large, bright red hand that gripped his head.

The giant hand slammed forward, pinning the Blizzard Dragon King to the hull of the Ghost of the Underworld.

Boom! "Roar—"

The Blizzard Dragon King opened its massive maw and released its final ripples.

However, it was all too late.

Chen Qi's eyes burned fiercely, and his muscles bulged like molten iron as he unleashed his final attack.

Die, Dragon King!
Each twenty-meter-long tentacle transformed into a terrifyingly sharp blade, aimed directly at the Dragon King's battered chest!
The life of the Blizzard Dragon King is as fragile as a candle flickering in the wind!

Boom! Boom!
Twelve tentacles, coupled with two fists, smashed down one punch after another!
The heavy, muffled sounds, like thunder, shocked everyone present, even startling the bloodthirsty snow dragons!

The two sides in the battle were like two terrifying behemoths tearing each other apart.

Boom! Boom!
Visible rings of blood waves surged out continuously.

At the same time, ring-shaped bloody gashes appeared on the Blizzard Dragon King's heart-protecting scales, which were harder than steel.

Bang!
Finally, with a terrifying sonic boom, the twelve tentacle spikes converged, transforming into a dragon-slaying spear that pierced through the dragon's protective scales and aimed directly at its heart!
As the Blizzard Dragon King's increasingly faint howls faded, the smoke of battle gradually dissipated.

The roar gradually subsided, and everything slowly returned to calm.

Upon seeing the cold heart on the Dragon King's chest, the hundred snow dragons scattered and fled.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Chen Qi's chest heaved as he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

He then used all his strength, and finally a prompt appeared before his eyes.

[You have hunted the king of the Icefield—the Blizzard Dragon King, gaining 100000 Inspiration Points and 20 Hunter's Flames.]

The hunt is complete.

Chen Qi dragged his exhausted body, pulled his fist out of the Blizzard Dragon King's scalding flesh, and then gasped for breath.

As the cold wind blew, everyone stood by the boat, staring blankly at the scene.

In the wind, Chen Qi's body was already soaked in his own blood and the scalding dragon's blood.

Even after the battle ceased, he still exuded the domineering aura of a bloodthirsty beast.

In the end, the hunter triumphed in the battle between the hunter and the dragon!

The outcome is decided!

The Ice Witch is right, she's not kidding!
Even without any of their help, the Black Hunter can defeat the Blizzard Dragon King!
After a brief silence, the crowd cheered:
Is this a battle between humans?

"Even Captain Palu would need to activate his domain and have a lot of luck to defeat a fifth-tier opponent."

"The way they bound the Dragon King is truly professional!"

"This ship is still intact! Just being on it makes my butt feel like it's going to be shaken to pieces!"

"Two monsters! How could a hunter choose to use a berserker's fighting style!"

"The Ice Witch anticipated this; we underestimated the Black Hunter!"

"Captain Palu, you're a complete waste! You should just hand over your title as one of the Four Great Emperors of the Sea to Lord Black Hunter!"

The group discussed it animatedly.

And once again, a bright red notification appeared before their eyes.

[The Blizzard Dragon King is dead; its dragon blood has stained this coffin, reducing the crack distortion by 3%, currently at 82%!]

[Reality and the Rift intersect; the blood of the Great Whale has once again stained this place, increasing the Rift's distortion by 9%, currently at 91%!]

A staggering 91% distortion in bright red! Everyone was shocked.

They didn't expect that after the death of the Blizzard Dragon King, the aberration level would increase instead of decrease!

When the crack distortion reaches 100%, collapse or advancement will occur.

The collapse and ascension of an A-order rift, the scale of the destruction, will pollute the entire ocean.

The collapse of the A-level rift is a true catastrophe that will destroy the world!

At this moment, Buli looked at Chen Qi beneath the Dragon King's corpse and asked:

"Um, everyone, what should we do next?"

At this moment, Chen Qi's spiritual energy field has gradually returned to calm, but no one dares to approach!

No one knew whether Chen Qi, after going berserk, would attack them.

Chen Qi's eyes were lifeless, the ferocity in them gradually faded, and all his strength vanished instantly.

He overexerted himself too much.

As a result of the aftermath of the battle, the little crow, battered and bruised, struggled to its feet, came to the bow of the ship, and looked toward Chen Qi.

As a ship's doctor, she could tell Chen Qi's condition at a glance.

The battle just now has destroyed his internal organs.

Now, Chenqi is unable to move.

That body was nearing its limit and needed immediate treatment from a professional doctor.

It would be very dangerous for Qi to stay on the ship... The little crow gritted her teeth, and couldn't help but recall the scene where Chen Qi risked his life to save her from the battle of the Dream Beast.

Should I help Chenqi up? The little crow was torn.

Perhaps this is an opportunity to repay Chenqi's kindness!

Finally, she mustered her courage, reached out her hand, and prepared to jump off the boat to rescue Chenqi...

However, her body was too fragile.

Upon merely touching the residual spiritual energy of Chen Qi, a drop of blood immediately fell from her finger!

Ouch! I… The little crow bit its lip.

Just then, under the twilight, a dazzling figure appeared in front of the little crow!
brush!
Undeterred by the turbulent swaying, Fen stood up again, jumped off the boat, and embraced Chenqi.

Such a hot body... Fen held the dazed Chen Qi, braving the scalding heat of the blade, and anxiously carried him onto the ship, carefully laying him flat on the deck.

"..."

The little crow froze, unsure how to express its feelings.

Only then did she truly realize that the familiar figure was no longer a weak crew member of the Sawshark like herself, nor was she the little cook adrift at sea.

The current young chef is a legend on par with the witch, a powerful figure recognized by the Ice Witch and Palu, one of the Four Emperors!
She once thought that Chen Qi would escape the clutches of Whale Father, just like her, and live an ordinary life in Moonstone City.

Now, she has not been able to escape the power of her father, and Chen Qi is no longer a powerful figure she can reach.

The little crow was overwhelmed with mixed feelings and didn't know how to express its complex emotions.

"..."

Fen interrupted the little crow's thoughts:

"Dr. Crow, please stop the bleeding! I'm preparing the medicine now, please perform the surgery!"

Fen said with extreme anxiety.

Now, Chenqi, riddled with problems, must be treated; the slightest mistake could leave extremely serious long-term consequences.

Me? Me, to lead a surgery? The little crow was taken aback.

During this period of adventure, although her strength did not increase much, her medical skills received full training from the Black Whale Gang!

Time was extremely tight, so she didn't argue. She carefully took out her medical kit and her sharp, extraordinary scalpel.

This was her first major mission after boarding the ship!

But can she really do it?

She gazed at Chen Qi's riddled, bleeding body.

In the battle just now, Chen Qi exhausted all his spiritual power, like a piece of cast iron being heated red-hot in a furnace.

She knew about a special surgery—the Blood Casting Technique.

This procedure was created by a saint specifically for this state where spiritual power and physical hands are burned out.

If the surgery goes smoothly, Chen Qi's body may experience an unprecedented improvement, or even a breakthrough!
This breakthrough is something countless cup fortune tellers dream of.

However, there is a major prerequisite: her surgery cannot afford even the slightest mistake.

Not even the slightest mistake can be tolerated!

Otherwise, Chen Qi will suffer from a lifelong illness.

However, she is still only a third-tier experimental subject, lacking both the precision and strength of her spiritual power.

The little crow turned its head and saw its trembling right hand and the gleaming scalpel in its hand!

Her body was covered in wounds from the aftermath of the battle.

That was a surgery developed by a sage; the probability of failure was as high as 99%!
Not a single mistake can be made… The little crow trembled, silently repeating this phrase to itself once again.

Can she really do it?
