--- Chapter 262 ---
A big gray-colored speedboat glided on the ocean and traveled at such a high speed. From afar, the transportation looks like an oversized dagger slicing the surface of seawater.
One could see people sitting on the boat's seats, enjoying the evening ocean breeze. Huo Yuhao sat before the Shrek Seven Devils' male members and showed them his sleight of hand.
"Look at this." Huo Yuhao said while placing three rubber balls on the table and brushing his empty hand over them. Magically, the rubber balls disappeared.
"Woah!" Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and He Caitou were impressed. They didn't detect any extra moves or tricks when Huo Yuhao did it.
'Why am I here?' Wang Dong helplessly thought. Since Wang Dong hasn't revealed her identity as a girl and is 'still' cross-dressed as a boy, she sat with them on this journey.
She grumbled unhappily inside but glanced at Huo Yuhao from time to time. Even though he was such an annoying guy, Wang Dong has admitted he was handsome and genius.
Everyone she learned about him fear screamed extreme confidence. Yes, he could act calmly in front of danger like the Extraterrestrial Race and sacrifice his lifespan to help them.
Like, what kind of woman wouldn't find that attractive?
Thinking about it, Wang Dong blushed and started viewing Huo Yuhao from a different angle.
"Wang Dong, are you okay?" Xu Sanshi noticed Wang Dong's blush.
"If you're feeling unwell, you might want to rest more. I'm still battered from the Secret Realm's incident."
"U-Uh, I'm alright..." Wang Dong responded awkwardly. She tried to hide her blush and buried her face flat on the table.
Huo Yuhao glanced at Wang Dong and mumbled, "No way, right?"
"Well, should I continue?" He shook his head and asked the boys.
They eagerly nodded and told him to do more magic tricks, leaving Wang Dong speechless.
After Huo Yuhao increased his sleight of hand's operation speed and coordination, Evo finally sent a notification.
[Ding! You have developed a passive skill]
[Tricky Arm (F)]
[Using specific and instantaneous movement, construct a tangible yet invisible arm to assist you in action. With higher proficiency, this passive skill will increase one's dexterity and attack speed permanently while providing extra arm to fight]
A smirk formed on Huo Yuhao's face because this skill alone had solved Three Lives, Three Daggers' technicality.
"Let's not stop this." He added the number of rubber balls in his trick and even enhanced the [Tricky Arm] with his Mental Power to make it look puzzling.
On the other hand, Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, He Caitou, and Wang Dong were 'extremely' confused because they couldn't tell how Huo Yuhao did his trick.
It happened before their eyes, but they couldn't spot the trick. Heck, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi literally used Tang Sect's Purple Demon Eyes to see through Huo Yuhao's trick. But still end up with no result.
[Ding! Tricky Arm(F) has upgraded due to your rapid progress]
[Tricky Arm(F) has become Temporal Arm(C)]
[Temporal Arm (C)]
[Utilizing rapid movement and mental power to mess with one's senses, quickly produce a tangible yet invisible arm to assist you in action. With higher proficiency, this passive skill will increase one's dexterity and attack speed permanently while providing sixteen extra arms to fight]
Huo Yuhao didn't stop as he began to analyze a more efficient way to operate his new passive skill excellently. After a while, he finally raised Temporal Arm's grade from C to A.
He wanted to increase this skill's grade, but the boys and Wang Dong gave up because he gave them headaches.
"Should I use an Upgrading Ticket?" Huo Yuhao pondered while watching the sunset. He frowned and stubbornly decided to raise his Temporal Arm to S Grade at least.
The sun slowly descended, and the moon replaced it.
The temperature began to drop, and everyone on the boat released vapor every time they breathed. Huo Yuhao controlled the All-Terrain Mobility Car to add another barrier while adjusting the atmosphere.
"Much better." Everyone comfortably sat on their seats.
"Thanks, Yuhao!" Tang Ya even gave Huo Yuhao a thumbs up.
Unfortunately for them, Huo Yuhao has already immersed himself in his world.
Scathach and Qianye Ying'er are talking with the girls when they suddenly detect three massive entities approaching their speedboat. Xuan Zi and other Title Douluo meditated silently on the boat, but their eyes were suddenly wide open.
"T-Three 100,000 years old Spirit Beasts are coming!" The other Title Douluo shouted.
Everyone panicked, and Xuan Zi facepalmed.
"Don't shout, for fuck sake. You're making everyone panic." Xuan Zi smacked his fellow elder on the head.
The Title Douluo realized his mistake and weakly responded, "S-Sorry."
"Aih, everyone calm down. I will talk with them first." Xuan Zi stood up and jumped off the boat, floating to the incoming Spirit Beasts.
Xuan Zi hovered above the sea and watched a giant blue octopus, an eel, and a stingray appear with overwhelming presence. Since the 100,000-year-old Spirit Beast is capable of coherent thought, they immediately demand something from Xuan Zi.
"Humans, you must offer us something to pass this area!" Said the giant blue octopus.
"Give us one of your people, and we will set you free..." Added the eel while squirming on the reed.
The stingray didn't say anything, but its eyes were 'already' locked on the people aboard the speedboat.
"..." Scathach.
"..." Qianye Ying'er.
Scathach's face darkened, "They are asking for a beating."
"Yeah..." Qianye Ying'er agreed.
"I thought we had cleaned the sea routes to Java Island?" The God Slayer was ready to throw her Gae Bolg.
"Apparently, the increase in sea traffic attracted Ocean Sea Beasts' attention." Qianye Ying'er pulled up her Dragon Nest's exclusive phone and gathered information through GIANA's Network.
Scathach and Qianye Ying'er knew that Dragon Nest had guaranteed everyone that the surrounding sea between Java Island and Douluo Continent was 'purposely' cleaned from danger.
Yet, surprising variables like this still happen.
Meanwhile, Xuan Zi's expression was grim.
Even though he was Level 98 Hyper Douluo, simultaneously fighting three 100,000-year-old Spirit Beasts is undeniably challenging. Not to mention, his forte is fighting on the land and not the freaking ocean.
He's in a very disadvantageous situation.
"Jian, protect the students!" Xuan Zi roared as his upper robe loosened and a pair of curved red Ox's Horn appeared on his head. He is also visibly younger, with red tattoos on his shoulders.
Two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red spirit ring manifested around Xuan Zi.
The other Title Douluo, Jian Bo, nodded and summoned his martial soul. He cursed because their journey had been chaotic ever since leaving Shrek Academy.
Two days ago.
They entered a Secret Realm and fought with the Extraterrestrial Race.
Now, they encountered three 100,000-year-old Spirit Beasts who wanted to rob and eat them alive.
"Fucking hell!" The more Jian Bo thought about it, the more he believed how unlucky they were.
Unknown to Jian Bo, their unlucky strike stemmed from the blue-haired young man nearby.
The three 100,000-year-old Spirit Beasts were intimidated by Xuan Zi's strong aura. But they still have advantages over this powerful human.
"Don't you think we need to help them?" Qianye Ying'er leisurely leaned against the rail.
Scathach glanced at Huo Yuhao and responded, "Let's wait for a few minutes."
Xuan Zi fiercely fought against the three Spirit Beasts, and every time a stray attack passed through his defense, Jian Bo would do his best to repel them away.
It continued for a few minutes until Xuan Zi successfully injured the giant octopus and the eel.
"Hateful human!" The giant octopus hatefully said.
"My face hurts. This human punches my face!" The eel hissed.
Xuan Zi grinned and mocked, "I can punch you guys more."
The giant octopus sneered, "Hmph, you're too late for that!"
Xuan Zi finally realized the absence of a 100,000-year-old sting ray and turned around in horror. "JIAN!" He shouted at the top of his lungs.
Jian Bo blinked and saw a sharp, dark spear approaching at extreme speed. It targeted his forehead.
"Oh no..." He wanted to dodge, but he couldn't. There are students and teachers behind him.
Slash!
A sharp wind sliced through the atmosphere and split the dark spear into two.
"AAAAAAAAARGHHH!" A roar of pain echoed in the sea. The sting ray has lost its tail.
BAM!
An invisible force followed shortly after and smacked the stingray away from the speedboat. Everyone was confused, but a shadowy mist quickly covered their field of vision.
[Ding! You have an active skill]
[Hiding in the Abyss (B)]
The stingray heard a footstep and saw someone walking on the water. Its eyes widened as a handsome blue-haired young man descended to the battlefield, brandishing his grim reaper's scythes.
