Chapter 159: Chapter 114: Seizing the Enemy Leader Amidst a Million Soldiers! Not Even Jesus Can Hold You Back, Black Heaven Blade·Eye-Penetrating Flow (6K)_3
However, compared to bees, their abdomens bore six gill-like organs, and in the place where one would expect to find wings on their backs, there were instead four unevenly sized, differently oriented long fins. The structure of their six insect legs was also different, webbed, making them more suitable for an underwater environment.
On their faces, where their mouthparts were, grew a single exoskeleton black hammer, resembling that of a rhinoceros beetle.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang——"
Countless Sea Wasps fell onto the deck, making a crashing sound.
All the Sea Wasps that fell onto the deck had several saber wounds on their bodies, from which amber-colored blood oozed out. Some of the Sea Wasps were still alive, their six legs constantly shaking and struggling as their stingers extended and contracted aimlessly into thin air.
Beside him, Chen Liang's eyes bulged in disbelief.
What is this? The legendary Saber Qi?
Why does a single slash create a water tornado?
Although I knew Mr. Xue was strong... this is just too outrageous.
"Teacher Wan, how many did that one slash kill?" Xue Jing asked indifferently.
After entering the Heavenly Blade Mindset, it wasn't just his pupils and expression that seemed to have taken on a touch of Divinity, but even his voice seemed to have been tinged with it.
Ning Fengwan was somewhat dazed as she faintly responded, "No more than three hundred, I guess..."
For some reason, her tone carried a hint of respect she herself hadn't noticed.
Xue Jing pondered for a moment.
Although he had exceptional physical strength and energy due to Health Cultivation, at the efficiency of three hundred per slash, it was unlikely he could inflict significant damage on a Sea Bee Swarm that numbered at least a hundred thousand.
He was uncertain whether he could even perform thirty more strikes of this caliber of saber technique.
"Need to think of another way." Xue Jing muttered contemplatively.
At that moment, the splashes on the sea surface suddenly became much more intense.
"Plop, plop, plop, plop——"
Countless Sea Wasps leaped out of the water, swiftly rushing towards Xue Jing's position.
Some of them were stretching out the exoskeleton hammers from their heads, others were raising their rears to expose their stingers, and the emotionless compound eyes sent shivers down one's spine.
Xue Jing wielded his Crouching Rabbit Sword in hand, slicing all the incoming Sea Wasps in half. The crunch of the blade slicing through flesh was incessant, as countless corpses of Sea Wasps scattered like rain.
Beside him, Ning Fengwan also manifested the Serpent Slayer Spearheads on her ten fingers, slicing through Sea Wasps.
Like dumplings being continuously dropped into boiling water, the endless stream of Sea Wasps showed no sign of halting, launching a relentless, fearless charge.
"Director Chen, you should take cover inside the cabin."
Xue Jing, while rapidly swinging his blade, said to Chen Liang, who was covered in blood from the Sea Wasps' corpses.
Chen Liang quickly nodded and crawled into the cabin.
"Crack, crack, crack——"
The ship suddenly tilted massively, nearly capsizing, followed by the blaring of incessant alarms.
"This is... The hull's breached, we're taking on water!"
Chen Liang stumbled and fell to the ground, his face pale with shock.
Xue Jing remained undistracted, constantly moving around the deck.
The Sea Wasps, like bullets, relentlessly aimed at his position, with no signs of confusion; wherever he went, they followed.
Upon noticing this, an idea sparked in Xue Jing's mind.
He continued to slay the endless Sea Wasps while surreptitiously surveying his surroundings with the corners of his eyes.
"I need the highest point of view... This cruise ship is absurdly tall."
Looking up at the observation deck dozens of decks above, Xue Jing pursed his lips.
"Teacher Wan, be careful on your own."
Xue Jing cautioned Ning Fengwan, then with a flash, he quickened his pace and started using the Light-body Skill, heading for the top of the cruise ship.
The Sea Wasps followed him as if they were his shadow, continuously launching attacks in his direction. Xue Jing jumped against the wall, grabbed hold of a railing on a balcony with one hand, and with a pull, swung himself upward.
Many Sea Wasps charged at him, only to hit the glass; their hard exoskeleton hammers shattered the glass, causing several hiding passengers to scream in terror.
"Black Heaven Blade·Whirlwind Thunder——"
Landing on one of the decks, Xue Jing unleashed a jet-black tornado of Saber Qi, shredding a line of Sea Wasps into pieces, gaining a brief respite to continue ascending swiftly.
Minutes later, he finally leaped to the topmost deck, then with several brisk steps, he charged to the top of the lookout tower's dome.
Xue Jing stood atop, scanning the surroundings with an unobstructed view.
In the dark night, under the illumination of the cruise ship's lights, numerous shadows emerged among black currents.
In Xue Jing's silver-white pupils, Dark Flame ignited.
With Shadow Flame adhering, the darkness could no longer obstruct his vision.
"The Sea Wasps can continue launching precise attacks on me, which clearly means they know my location."
"The one commanding the swarm can only be the Sea Bee King."
"It has seen my position..."
As he killed the Sea Wasps, Xue Jing's gaze swept across the sea.
"It is... on the sea surface."
The pupils burning with Dark Flame seemed as if they could devour all light.
With Level 7 Aiming, his vision surpassed human limits and fully activated, continuously adjusting the focus within his eyes.
Covered in the surrounding hundreds of meters, countless shadows, each nearly identical, made them hard to distinguish.
It was like searching for a morsel of glutinous rice in a vat of rice, one by one.
Xue Jing's mind was in ultimate tranquility, without a hint of impatience.
'Not this one... Not this one... Not this one...'
Memorizing every detail of a Sea Wasp's appearance, Xue Jing ceaselessly searched for the one figure on the sea surface that was different from the rest.
One after another, his speed grew faster and faster, from a few seconds per wasp, to one per second, to less than one per second.
