Chapter 729 - 317: The Sea Stained Red Amidst the Storm

The dark clouds were like a toppled ink bottle, instantly staining the entire sky black. The previously shimmering sea surface suddenly turned dark and somber.

An unknown fierce wind began to blow, causing the calm sea to suddenly surge with waves.

The intense smell of blood was magnified infinitely in the salty sea breeze. Two shadows larger than before, tracing the scent of blood, silently cut through the murky seawater, rapidly swimming towards the corpse of the Furious Sea Shark and the fishing boat quietly floating on the sea surface.

The two sudden Furious Sea Sharks did not rush to surface. They chose to quickly weave through the deeper waters, creating massive undercurrents with their gigantic bodies, causing the ship to rock violently.

The fierce wind intensified, making the rocking of the ship even more severe. The people on board struggled to maintain their balance, clinging tightly to the railings to avoid falling.

Chen Yuan stepped forward, standing immovable in the fierce wind, his eyes sharp as a blade: "Spark, Cola, take them down!"

As the calm and steady voice rang in her ears, the initially panicked expression of Nan eased, and she stared ahead in daze.

A clear and loud cry, enough to tear through the heavy dark clouds, echoed through the sky as the Fire-breathing Bird on Advisor Chen’s shoulder suddenly spread its wings, its form growing larger against the wind.

Almost in the blink of an eye, a Blazing Heaven Falcon with wide wingspan and a gracefully exquisite body stood proudly beneath the sky. Its feathers seemed like flowing molten gold, emanating a faint golden flame.

As the Blazing Heaven Falcon rapidly ascended into the mid-air, its long, magnificent tail feathers trailed a brilliant rainbow light in the fierce wind, like a dazzling bridge of colors between the dark clouds and the sea.

"Chirp!"

Spark raised its head, hovering, exuding a warm glow that dispelled the darkness, forcibly spreading a dome of golden light beneath the lead-grey clouds, like a golden sun igniting the gloomy sky.

"Is this... Advisor Chen’s Blazing Heaven Falcon?"

The three people’s eyes simultaneously fell upon the Blazing Heaven Falcon, its majestic and noble figure deeply imprinted in their minds, unforgettable for a long time.

Thanks to Zhang Bai, both Nan and Tian had some understanding of the Blazing Heaven Falcon. They knew that the Flame Cloud Falcon’s advancement to become a Blazing Heaven Falcon would not have been possible without Chen Yuan’s independent research.

He was not only the most excellent and famous Beastmaster in Qin Province, but also a genius researcher who shook the academic world.

Perhaps over countless long days, Advisor Chen not only needed to devise the most scientific and effective training and breeding methods for the Pet Beasts, but also, hunched over his desk, sought the correct advancement conditions for the Flame Cloud Falcon through repeated failures and setbacks.

Sweat and effort forged the brilliance of Advisor Chen today.

Zhang Bai was filled with emotion: "Having both talent and diligence, no wonder Advisor Chen achieved such great success."

"Howl, howl!"

Seeing everyone’s attention drawn to the leader, Cola let out a disdainful snort and silently transformed into a swift, light brown shadow leaping out from Chen Yuan’s side.

Cola did not land on the deck or the sea surface. It seemed to step on invisible air staircases beneath its paws, swiftly ascending into the air, then stably hovering above the sea surface.

The two pure black silk ribbon-like fur strips swirling on either side of its body fluttered fiercely in the intensified wind like banners, carrying a silent rhythm.

Cola’s gaze was no longer gentle as usual but sharp as a blade, directly targeting the surging shadow beneath the water.

The muscles under its light brown fur were knotted and bulging, emitting a suppressed yet powerful low roar from its throat, the airflow surrounding its body driven by an invisible force gradually formed into a gale, stirring the sea: "Howl!"

The majestic presence of Cola captured everyone’s attention, and they immediately cast their gazes upon it.

"This is the Wind-controlling Dog that can fly." Nan murmured.

The aerial battle between the Wind-controlling Dog and the Dome Feather Frost Blade had once sparked heated discussions online. Now, witnessing it firsthand was even more awe-inspiring.

For a moment, the two Pet Beasts hovered in the sky, gazing down across the dark sea at the two Furious Sea Sharks swimming beneath the water. The overwhelming sense of pressure they naturally emitted seemed to transform into tangible shockwaves crashing down.

The sea roiled, the giant sharks trembled.

In the next moment, the originally savage and fierce two Furious Sea Sharks emitted a raspy and bizarre humming sound, suddenly swinging their massive tails, churning the murky splashes of foam as they turned around without hesitation, swimming back in the direction they came from.

Their swimming speed was astounding, disappearing for dozens of meters in an instant, their reflected images in everyone’s eyes rapidly shrinking.

Nan’s expression froze: "Even the Furious Sea Sharks can flee?"

Even facing powerful foes, the ferocious Furious Sea Sharks would fight to the end. Terrifying wounds and the dripping blood would only ignite their fury, driving them into a rage-fueled, relentless attack mode.

Unless... the enemy is so powerful that they don’t even dare to resist.

Tian gazed into the distance, his voice low: "Even the most ferocious Pet Beasts have their survival rules. Otherwise, they couldn’t have grown smoothly from infancy."

Clearly, the arrival of Spark and Cola instilled a sense of fear in these two Furious Sea Sharks, suppressing their brutish and violent nature, driving them to make a choice from the heart.

Chen Yuan naturally wouldn’t allow them to escape: "Chase them down."

Spark let out a clear and sharp cry, its delicate golden figure carving a dazzling trail across the sky, flapping its wide wings to scatter a shower of sparks, which fell onto the sea surface, creating a burst of white mist.

Its calm golden eyes locked onto the Furious Sea Shark on the left, its elegant neck suddenly stretched taut, and its magnificent, molten gold-crafted beak opened wide.
