The Growth of a God

Chapter 15: Epic Creatures (5/5)


An hour later, on the cloudless sea for thousands of miles.

The bone ship carrying the Skeletons had already left the front sea and headed for the true realm of the ocean.

Sailing through the wind and waves, borrowing the momentum of the wind...

The bone ship, transformed from a joint of Gu Sheng's finger, seemed to carry some kind of magical power of its own, continuously advancing by harnessing the ocean and the force of the gale.

"Is this the 'Exorcism Technique'?"

Seeing this, a Skeleton following along couldn't help but mutter in amazement.

The skill of Exorcism and Demon Control is not unfamiliar to the Skeletons,

because it is a mysterious power that originally spread from the Immortals.

Not only the Skeletons, but many individuals among the Hundred Races of Mountains and Seas were also taught by the Immortals.

Unfortunately, the Exorcism and Demon Control Skill has such high requirements for learners, resulting in very few people able to use this magic.

Helplessly, the Immortals had no choice but to split the skill into "Exorcism Technique" and "Ghost Control Technique" to lower the learning threshold.

Even so, those who can truly master it are still few and far between.

"Wait! What is that!?"

Just as the group was marveling at the magic of the bone ship, a massive whirlpool suddenly appeared on the distant sea foam.

Immediately following, a storm descended from the sky, and with visible speed, turned this place into the center of the storm.

Swirl... swirl... swirl...

In the blink of an eye, the once cloudless bright sky was filled with the menacing clouds of a stormy weather.

Such an exaggerated and terrifying change in weather could not possibly be a naturally formed storm.

"That is... the Storm Ray!"

Looking up with a serious expression, the well-informed Gu Sheng immediately recognized the culprit behind this weather change.

In the Mountain and Sea Realm, the Skeletons and the Hundred Races of Mountains and Seas have never been mainstream.

Those Mountain and Sea Strange Beasts, who had recovered from the apocalypse, with their terrifying size and power, are the unquestionable rulers of this era.

"Storm Ray?"

Following Gu Sheng's gaze, the crowd suddenly noticed a massive shadow flying at the center of the storm.

Its size is so enormous, its posture so steady...

With the rhythm of every inhale and exhale, it seemed as if the storm was dancing along with it.

Such a terrifying existence has already surpassed normal biological cognition, a monster of epic level that could only be conceived in the Mythical Era.

"The Storm Ray is the ruler of the sky, the predator of the ocean."

"Its breath can stir up storms, its speed can slash through waves."

"Most importantly, this creature is filled with curiosity, actively pursuing, or even hunting, any novel thing that appears on the sea surface."

"It's said that the Merfolk once tried to tame this terrifying epic creature by utilizing the curiosity of the Storm Ray."

"As a result, they had to move their tribe to deeper waters due to the revenge of other Storm Rays, barely escaping a crisis of annihilation."

After simply explaining the specific information about the Storm Ray, Gu Sheng's tone seemed to have regained its calmness.

In fact, not just Gu Sheng.

Even the other Skeletons, after the initial shock, did not show much panic.

On one hand, it is because the Skeletons are naturally predisposed this way.

On the other hand, it's because they had already considered the likelihood of encountering such a situation before setting out to sea.

"A Ke, can you handle it?"

A Skeleton with a relatively good relationship with A Ke suddenly turned and asked softly.

"..."

A Ke did not respond immediately to the Skeleton's question, but looked towards Gu Sheng at the bow.

"A Li has told me about your situation, you can take action without worry!"

Facing A Ke's enquiring gaze, Gu Sheng replied calmly.

"Mm."

After receiving a positive response from Gu Sheng, A Ke responded as quietly as usual.

Then, A Ke gently pushed past the Skeletons in front of him and walked step by step to the position at the bow.

"Be careful, A Ya is still waiting for you to come home."

As if seeing something, Gu Sheng suddenly advised at the last moment.

"And I promised A Li, since this time it was my decision to take the risk, I will undoubtedly ensure all of you return safely in the end."

His steady steps paused for a moment, A Ke remained silent.

.........................................................

"Ooo!"

The moment A Ke stood on the bow, the Storm Ray not far away clearly noticed his presence.

Accompanied by a series of echoing cries between heaven and earth, the curious Storm Ray began to actively approach the bone ship.

It was at this moment that A Ke suddenly raised his head to gaze at the sky, his entire being exuding an astonishing hostility and murderous intent.

Whoosh!

He tore off the black robe enveloping him.

Only then did A Ke's true form emerge in everyone's sight.

Unlike ordinary Skeletons, A Ke's true form was a complete war machine.

Located on his head, besides the frontal skull, there were two identical faces growing on the sides behind.

The skull with three faces endowed A Ke with the ability to see and hear in all directions.

Even in the most intense battlefield, A Ke could quickly grasp the enemy's reactions and maintain his composure.

Furthermore, to match this astonishing insight, A Ke's body had also undergone obvious special modifications.

Under the skeletal frame, six pale skeletal arms with multi-segment joints could perform strange movements beyond the capability of ordinary creatures, or even Skeletons.

"I... have arrived!"

The skeletal holes at his hip joint suddenly erupted with air streams.

A Ke, at this moment, displayed a ferocious mantis-like stance and suddenly lunged at the nearby massive storm.

Swoosh—Boom!

By the time everyone reacted.

The great sound of the howling wind suddenly came from above, and A Ke's figure had already vanished into the storm.

Next, a series of collisions and wails came from the storm.

Apparently, the Storm Ray had not expected that someone in this world would dare rush into the storm to duel with it.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sharp sounds of bladed weapons clashing echoed, indicating the madness of A Ke's battle.

Lost the vision? Then fight by intuition...

Skeletons broken? Just grow new bones again...

As long as A Ke could still move, his mechanically calm self continued to relentlessly ambush and wound the Storm Ray.

This is the most special aspect of A Ke, or more precisely, the Second Generation Skeletons.

The bones constituting the bodies of the Second Generation Skeletons come from the Bone Beast, so naturally, they also inherited the Bone Beast's ability to automatically grow bones.

And this trait, when applied to combat, equates to having a certain degree of Immortal Body.
