Chapter 295 Ghostly Shadows of the Abyss
There are monsters like this in the deep sea.

Li Xuan had only seen an introduction to this monster in a picture book of 100,000 Whys when he was a child, and thought it was just made up. He never expected that it actually existed.

The deepest part of the Pacific Ocean is called the Mariana Trench, which reaches a depth of 11034 meters. Even if you put the entire Mount Everest, the world's highest peak, into it, the water level would still be more than 2000 meters above the summit!
At this moment, Li Xuan felt that the monster in front of him was somewhat double, and immediately realized that he might be experiencing "nitrogen poisoning," which is the limit of his diving ability.

His physical body is far superior to that of ordinary people; it can heal itself and live forever!
However, it has not yet broken free from the category of carbon-based life forms. Its basic structure has not changed, and the compressed air in the high-pressure oxygen tank behind it is also composed of 29% oxygen and 70% nitrogen, according to the normal air ratio.

The physical body can withstand high pressure, but blood cannot defy the laws of physics. Therefore, under high pressure, high concentrations of nitrogen gas will enter the bloodstream, causing poisoning symptoms similar to drunkenness...

In addition to the 70% nitrogen, the 29% oxygen can also cause oxygen poisoning, attacking cell structure and easily leading to conditions such as epilepsy.

Li Xuan's heart rate was rising. The instruments connected to his body immediately put Huang Yaozu and the others on the sea surface on high alert. Huang Yaozu picked up the microphone and warned, "We're almost 700 meters. Your body has already surpassed all current human limits. Going any further will really be dangerous..."

Li Xuan could sense that the source of the ghost was beneath the squid and ribbonfish fighting.

He activated the Eastern Peak Dharma lineage, and the Dharma power flowing throughout his body reduced the negative effects of the high pressure.

"I should be able to see the source soon. Whatever the outcome, it will start to rise in ten minutes."

"What? Your heart rate has reached 169? That's dangerous!"

During this time, Huang Yaozu on the deck had absorbed a lot of basic knowledge from what he saw and heard. His left hand trembled slightly as he said, "We can prepare to dive again, but not now! Even if you ascend immediately, it will be a slow ascent of up to 7 hours to avoid hypobaric symptoms that could endanger your life!"

Deep-sea diving is that dangerous!

The Pacific Ocean holds too many secrets for humankind, and its exploration rate is less than 30%. Safely diving to reach the destination is enough to surpass the achievements of many countries.

Li Xuan's voice came through the loudspeaker: "Ten minutes!"

Huang Yaozu opened his mouth, glanced at the people around him, and said, "It will rise in ten minutes!"

Underwater, the two giant marine creatures gradually determined the winner, as the ribbonfish's back was gradually bitten off by the squid. It twisted its body and bit the squid's soft tentacles, causing limited damage.

The ribbonfish, broken in two, sank slowly.

The squid sprayed out a stream of water, chased after it, and stuffed a segment of it into its mouth...

Li Xuan tried to remain silent and waited for the octopus to finish eating before leaving.

Unexpectedly, the octopus suddenly turned around, its mouth still stuffed with half of a silver ribbonfish's corpse, and swam towards Li Xuan.

Li Xuan: "Hmm?"

How could a mere meter or so in height be as alluring as half a seven or eight-meter-long ribbonfish?

What's going on in this squid's head?
Li Xuan was strapped with a safety rope, holding a gun in both hands, and assuming a fighting stance!
The squid seemed to sense the danger and swam in a circling motion, spraying out large amounts of ink—fine powdery particles that immediately obscured its vision…

This was the first time the two had met.

It then resorted to covert tactics.

Too cautious...

Li Xuan gripped the black spear, slowing his breathing as much as possible, covering his body with magic power, and carefully sensing the fluctuations in the water.

He thrust forward suddenly, the spearhead instantly extending ten meters. It felt soft and yielding, as if it had pierced into soft flesh. He must have hit it. He immediately changed the shape of the spear, the spearhead instantly becoming a double-edged scythe, and pulled it back sharply!

The weapon transformed into a fan, which he swung with all his might!
Using the reaction force, he burst out of the squid's black smoke and saw where he had just stabbed.

A smooth opening was cut through the middle of the giant squid's body, revealing a large number of translucent parts, which were probably its internal organs or something similar!

The squid never imagined that after defeating the silver ribbonfish, this tiny creature would inflict a gash on its body. In the ocean, a severe injury means death; even if it manages to escape, its lifespan is short, and a single whale fall will result in the survival of countless others…

Ignoring its injuries, the squid pounced fiercely, opening its tentacles and mouthparts, like a giant blood droplet covering everything!

The weapon in Li Xuan's hand immediately transformed into a double-headed umbrella, which he used to hide inside. The next second, he was swallowed by the squid's mouth, whose teeth resembled those of a parrot.

Gah...

The black umbrella was caught by sharp teeth and quickly bent down.

Refa!

power ups!

The black umbrella crackled with electricity, and the squid trembled violently, snapping its safety rope in the rage! It straightened up, dragging Li Xuan, still inside its mouth, plummeting vertically into the dark abyss!
A stream of blood spurted from Li Xuan's nostrils...

The pressure is rising too fast.

Huang Yaozu, who was on the sea, saw that the safety rope on the instrument had broken. His face changed. This was a top-quality steel-insulated rope that even a car couldn't break. How could it have broken?

……

Li Xuan struggled to get out of the squid's mouth and swam with difficulty.

He suddenly froze. At the bottom of the abyss, there was a dark mass that kept swirling around, looking like a group of super tadpoles wrapped around a black sphere with a diameter of more than thirty meters.

The squid's body, stunned by the electric shock, moved with the undercurrent towards the dark sphere. Its eyes instantly turned white and then turned into powder!

Li Xuan took down the detection radar from his waist. As soon as he pressed the active detection button, the data on it instantly reached its peak limit. This meant that the dark mass in front of him was the source of the ghost's frequency.

He was enveloped by a chill.

As I concentrated, I finally saw clearly what those tadpole-shaped things were.

It was a pile of heads stacked together to form spheres, trailing black smoke behind them, making them look like tadpoles. The most outrageous thing was that he could actually see the ghosts that Huang Yaozu and the others had personally killed during this period on their faces...

However, these are all ghosts who died by means other than lightning, such as being shot, hacked to death, etc.

In other words, Lei Fa did indeed kill the ghost, but ghosts killed by other means would accumulate in the deep sea of ​​the Pacific Ocean in some way.

We need to go up first.

Li Xuan walked toward the safety rope that was swaying in the ocean.

He grabbed the safety rope and immediately felt a suction force coming from below, the water pressure increasing again...

It was a black sphere formed from countless ghosts, and its center should contain some kind of core, a place that gave Li Xuan a chilling sense of terror...

The last time I was this scared was in the first world, "Minxiong Haunted House".

The safety rope slid slowly in his hands, pulling Li Xuan downwards!

……

On the sea, Huang Yaozu anxiously watched the instruments, unsure whether to reel in the safety rope or not. If Li Xuan wasn't on the rope, and he rashly pulled him in, Li Xuan might never come back...

Just then, Mi Zhijie, who had returned to the cabin, suddenly ran over, panting, and said, "Our small radar detected no fewer than twenty ships approaching, and there are some in the air as well!"

Huang Yaozu looked up and saw several black dots in the distance—helicopters!
