Chapter 127 - 124:1... I’m Not Dead?
Their size was not much different from the one encountered earlier, and some were even larger!
The ferocious mouths of the creatures opened in unison, their sharply barbed teeth utterly terrifying.
What to do?
What should be done?
Dense threads of blood filled Gu Qingyuan’s eyes as he ceaselessly pondered this question.
Gu Qingyuan’s mind raced frantically, yet he could think of no solution, for here in the water, everything depended on Bi Fang alone!
But could an oxygen-deprived Bi Fang truly face three monsters at once?
This question was unsolvable!
Hold on!
It wasn’t just Gu Qingyuan; every viewer watching Bi Fang’s live broadcast was uttering the same prayer at this moment.
Giant crisis!
Massive crisis!
Bi Fang pursed his lips, tasting the flavor of blood, his heart, which had slowed due to the consumption of oxygen, now beating fiercely once again, the sound booming like a loud bell.
He felt his body getting hotter and hotter, his chestnut-colored pupils trembling slightly, fixated on the monster fish diving toward him.
However, just as Bi Fang braced himself for a full-on battle, a tremendous force suddenly struck from behind!
This force, like the hand of a god or a high-speed train, violently struck Bi Fang’s back!
It was the water, the water!
Bi Fang instantly understood that the water in the pool was flowing backward!
It was a difference in pressure!
This sudden inrush propelled Bi Fang quickly toward the cave entrance, not just him, but also the three monster fish were hit by the massive current, directly pushed out of the cave!
The perspective shook too violently, and even with a balance system, viewers felt as if they were in a tumbling washing machine.
The torrent, like a giant hand, clenched Bi Fang in its grasp and hurled him violently out of the cave, eventually smashing him against one of the monster fish.
The roar of the rapid current suddenly whooshed by Bi Fang’s ears.
Though Bi Fang could not see the full image of the monster fish behind him, he could still clearly see its tail, and he certainly wouldn’t miss this opportunity, stabbing it with a Hunting Knife without hesitation.
This creature relied entirely on its tail for such swift movement in water!
If he could injure this tail, he could immediately slow the monster’s swimming speed and agility!
The tail of the Tiktaalik was not enshrouded in thick bone like its head. Bi
Fang’s knife plunged into its flesh without any hindrance.
In an instant, Bi Fang could distinctly feel the body of the monster fish shudder, then it violently shook its body, flinging him away.
Under the tremendous force, Bi Fang, from holding his breath for so long, felt a reflexive physiological constriction in his lungs and inadvertently swallowed a mouthful of water!
But he didn’t engage in a prolonged fight; taking advantage of this force and the fact that the other several monsters were washed away, he quickly headed upstream toward the river’s surface.
At that moment, he was bursting with two hundred percent of his speed!
The sound of water here was too loud; it definitely could not be a structure like that of a water pipe. If the interior was full of flowing water, the sound would be greatly reduced, so there must be a water surface, air!
Right now, Bi Fang had reached his limit of holding his breath; if he couldn’t breathe air soon, he would drown without the attack of the monster fish.
But the monster fish weren’t vegetarians; how could they just watch their prey escape?
The other two monster fish had been flushed away to who knows where, but the one with the injured tail had adjusted its course and was rapidly swimming toward Bi Fang!
Five meters, the distance between them was less than five meters!
Bi Fang, seeing the water surface within arm’s reach, steeled his heart. He did not turn back to confront the fish but instead shot straight for the water’s surface.
Five meters!
Three meters!
One meter!
Finally, when the monster fish was just one meter away from Bi Fang, about to bite his leg, Bi Fang finally broke the water surface, managed to take a quick gulp of air, and immediately wrapped his arms around his neck, somersaulting to dive back down, directly into the gaping maw of the monster fish!
The audience in the live stream watched in horror as Bi Fang’s entire head was swallowed whole by the monster fish over two and a half meters long!
Splash!
The monster swallowed Bi Fang’s head in one gulp, and its massive body crashed into the river like the whip of a god, kicking up a huge spray of water.
Swallowed!
Everyone was stunned, and as Bi Fang had created one miracle after another, they simply could not accept that a guy who called himself the number one explorer would meet his end here!
Gu Qingyuan, Lin Chang, Lin Xue, Wu Mingtao, Yao Jun, and Wang Yongbo, all friends of Bi Fang, were at this moment beside themselves with rage.
Could it be that Bi Fang would really die just like this?
Inside the Underground River!
Bi Fang only felt a tremendous force strike his head, and then he was plunged into a dark, sticky environment, accompanied by a foul stench.
An unprecedented sense of urgency!
But there was still hope!
Bi Fang had not dived recklessly, otherwise, compared to losing a leg, the importance of his head was unquestionable. What he wanted was precisely this effect!
Humans’ necks are too fragile, so when he dived, Bi Fang used his hands to protect his head, and because the monster’s mouth was too large, it had swallowed not only his head but also his hands that were protecting his neck!
In the end, the monster could not outwit human intelligence!
Bi Fang reached back and grabbed the Hunting Knife, stabbing forward fiercely!
In an instant, Bi Fang felt the entire fish cavity suddenly tighten, like a vacuum pump sucking air, causing his shoulders to ache.
The pain triggered the monster fish’s fury, but it also stirred up Bi Fang’s wildness!
Far from letting go, he twisted and sliced the Hunting Knife even more ruthlessly!
Boom!
The monster fish’s whole interior constricted in a squeezing motion, and it began to struggle violently.
Bi Fang’s head spun wildly.
The monster fish thrashed its tail wildly, immense pain engulfing its entire body, followed by a deep, heavy roar, it opened its bloody mouth and spat Bi Fang out once more!
The audience in the live stream felt darkness and then light, and water came back into view!
“Ha ha!”
Bi Fang burst out of the water, creating a great splash, and swam toward the riverbank without looking back!
After inflicting a severe blow on the monster fish, releasing Bi Fang, it quickly swam downwards.
Bi Fang coughed, with river water constantly pouring into his mouth and nostrils, creating an unbearable physiological urge to vomit, which he suppressed as he swam to the bank in agony.
In front of the camera, the waterline bobbed—it was unclear how Bi Fang had managed to do it, but that didn’t stop the viewers’ celebration!
Within a second, hundreds of comments formed a storm in the live stream!
A dense flurry of gifts made the entire screen impenetrable.
The only thing that could limit Bi Fang’s live stream popularity now was Wolf Fang’s ceiling capacity!
Wang Yongbo was all too aware that many of Wolf Fang’s streamers deliberately avoided streaming during Bi Fang’s times, fearing it would affect their viewership!
After about fifteen seconds, Bi Fang finally reached the beach of the Underground River.
He rolled over with the last of his energy, then lay on the bank, gasping for breath like a dead fish.
A drop of water from the cave ceiling fell on Bi Fang’s forehead, cold to the bone.
“I… didn’t die?”
The river flowed quietly beside him, fish swam in circles like spinning vortexes of light, their bioluminescence allowing Bi Fang to see the grandeur of his surroundings.
He struggled to his feet, and the moment he looked out, Bi Fang forgot all his fear. His soul was filled with immense shock, and when he saw it all, everything seemed worth it…
“Splash!”
Water suddenly burst, and another monster fish leapt onto the bank!
Just as it vaulted from the water, Bi Fang kicked it fiercely with his foot, sending it straight back into the Underground River, and he cursed loudly.
“You damn thing, dare to scare me when you’re not even a meter long!”
