"Don't eat me, please don't eat me!" The middle-aged man clutched in its hand screamed in terror.
Beside him, the woman held in its other hand had already become a headless corpse.
The King of the Deep Sea ignored the middle-aged man's wails, opening its mouth wide, ready to decapitate him.
Suddenly, its movements paused. It casually tossed aside the middle-aged man in its hand and turned to look at the other end of the street.
The discarded middle-aged man, ignoring the pain, quickly scurried away.
There, a middle-aged man, 1.87 meters tall, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and possessing a refined appearance, emerged.
"Finally, a stronger human has arrived, hahaha." The King of the Deep Sea's face twisted into a sinister grin; fighting those trashy opponents had bored it to death.
Fang Wenyu reached out, unbuttoned his suit and the white shirt underneath, and casually hung them on a nearby potted plant, revealing his sculpted muscles.
He looked at the monster before him and said casually, "I'm very curious how a monster like you appeared here. You know, there have never been any records of a monster like you appearing before."
"Want to know? Then defeat me!" The King of the Deep Sea's mouth stretched into a grin, revealing blood-stained fangs.
Fang Wenyu took off his glasses and tossed them aside, his expression turning serious: "That's exactly what I intend to do."
One monster and one human stood opposite each other, separated by more than fifty meters. The air seemed to solidify.
Whoosh! The next moment, both figures moved simultaneously, transforming into afterimages as they charged towards each other.
The King of the Deep Sea formed its right hand into a fist and swung it, whistling, towards Fang Wenyu, who had already rushed in front of it.
Fang Wenyu's lips curled into a cold smile. Without even looking at the punch, he delivered a right punch of his own.
"How dare you ignore my punch, how arrogant!" The King of the Deep Sea, seeing this, felt provoked, roaring as it increased the force of its fist, smashing it towards Fang Wenyu's head.
Bang! A loud sound came from the road behind Fang Wenyu, where a crater suddenly appeared.
Meanwhile, the King of the Deep Sea's punch to his head seemed to have no effect, causing no damage whatsoever.
Bang! Another loud sound echoed, and the scales on the King of the Deep Sea's chest burst open, its body recoiling seven or eight meters backward.
'How is this possible? My attack actually had no effect on him.' The King of the Deep Sea felt the pain in its chest, then looked at Fang Wenyu, who was walking towards it expressionlessly, its fish-like face filled with shock.
Whoosh! Without giving it more time to think, Fang Wenyu moved his feet and shot towards it, his fists blurring into afterimages as he struck.
"Damn it, I don't believe you're all the same!" The King of the Deep Sea roared and charged forward as well, striking at Fang Wenyu with both fists.
Bang bang bang!
Each of Fang Wenyu's punches was powerful and heavy, creating indentations on the King of the Deep Sea's body, its scales flying off and scattering on the ground, some even embedding themselves into the pavement like darts.
In contrast, the King of the Deep Sea's punches, when they landed on Fang Wenyu, seemed to be redirected, causing the ground behind Fang Wenyu to continuously explode into craters a meter wide, sending debris flying and kicking up clouds of dust.
Within a second, the two exchanged hundreds of punches. The King of the Deep Sea was once again forced back, its body covered in dents and shattered scales.
"Is that all you've got?" Fang Wenyu looked at the King of the Deep Sea with deep eyes. Aside from a bit of dust, there was no sign of injury on him.
The King of the Deep Sea, hearing these words, seemed provoked. Its face immediately contorted in fury as it roared, "Mere human! Mere human!!!"
As it roared, dark clouds began to appear in the sky, blocking the sun, and gusts of wind picked up.
Fang Wenyu looked at the sky, taking a breath, only to feel a sticky sensation in his nose and mouth: "Is it going to rain?"
Pitter-patter! The next moment, large raindrops poured down, soaking his hair.
He suddenly noticed that the monster in front of him seemed to be in an unusual state; its wounds were healing, and its body was expanding, growing from four meters to six meters.
"Human, I will make you pay for your arrogance!" The King of the Deep Sea roared at Fang Wenyu. Under the blessing of the Sea's Descent ability, its strength had reached its peak.
Fang Wenyu looked at the King of the Deep Sea: "Then come and try!"
His Awakened ability, Heavenly Rotation Body, could transfer attacks based on his reaction speed. Theoretically, as long as his reactions kept up, no attack could touch him.
Of course, the cost was stamina; the stronger the attack, the more stamina consumed. However, he was confident he could wear down this monster.
Bang! The King of the Deep Sea once again shot towards Fang Wenyu, its massive fist carrying immense power, smashing fiercely towards his head.
"Useless attack." Fang Wenyu sneered, pushing off with both feet and leaping up, delivering a kick to the King of the Deep Sea's head.
The King of the Deep Sea's punch had no effect on Fang Wenyu, not even managing to move his body.
Boom! Suddenly, the entire street behind Fang Wenyu exploded. Dozens of meters of road shattered inch by inch, and the buildings on both sides were also affected, collapsing directly.
Bang! Fang Wenyu's kick also landed on the King of the Deep Sea's face, making it stagger and retreat backward, its feet crushing the concrete.
A thousand meters up in the sky, Jiang Yan watched as the street below was fiercely battered and shattered by the intense battle between the human and the monster. The combat radius was expanding rapidly, with numerous surrounding buildings collapsing.
His eyes flickered: 'This must be a Level Five Awakener. He can actually suppress the King of the Deep Sea. His ability must be damage redirection.'
Jiang Yan had been observing Fang Wenyu. Especially every time the King of the Deep Sea threw a punch, an attack on the ground would invariably appear out of thin air behind him.
'At this rate, even the King of the Deep Sea, with the blessings of Deep Sea Breath and King's Trait, will inevitably be defeated.' Jiang Yan pondered for a moment and immediately ordered the King of the Deep Sea to retreat.
Even a monster can't endure being beaten unilaterally.
Below, the King of the Deep Sea, its body oozing blue blood, roared as its fists blurred into afterimages, striking Fang Wenyu, but the result was still ineffective.
Meanwhile, Fang Wenyu's every punch and kick continuously inflicted damage upon it, and these injuries accumulated on the King of the Deep Sea.
Fang Wenyu's face showed a leisurely expression. Having fought to this extent, he had a good grasp of the monster before him: "Your strength is decent, barely reaching Level Five. Unfortunately, you met me, so you can only blame your bad luck."
His Heavenly Rotation Body was the bane of close-combat fighters.
The King of the Deep Sea received Jiang Yan's order to retreat in its mind. It glared furiously at Fang Wenyu, then turned and fled.
"Trying to run? No such luck." Fang Wenyu pushed off with both feet, chasing after the King of the Deep Sea, his speed even faster than the monster's.
Whoosh!
The King of the Deep Sea, sensing the situation, suddenly made a sharp turn. Its neck swelled, and a thick jet of water suddenly sprayed towards the pursuing Fang Wenyu.
"Futile effort!" Fang Wenyu casually waved his hand, and the water column was redirected to the architectural ruins on the left.
Seeing this, the King of the Deep Sea immediately turned and fled. Fang Wenyu would not let him go; having killed so many people and caused such widespread destruction, at least several surrounding streets had been turned into ruins.
The human and the monster chased each other like this. Jiang Yan, watching from above, frowned: 'So troublesome.'
At this rate, the King of the Deep Sea might really get killed, which was a loss Jiang Yan could not accept.
Thinking this, Jiang Yan's expression turned grim.
'Go, to the city center!' Jiang Yan understood his own strength; directly confronting this middle-aged man would certainly lead to defeat. It was better to lure him away.
Ghost Buddha appeared beside him, its eyes hollow and eerie.
