The snake's back was so smooth that the scales were incredibly smooth, as if they were made of sapphire.
It also has a mucus-like substance on its body.
Although there were very few, they still made its body appear smoother.
It feels like smearing soap on glass.
If Jiang Wu hadn't had such amazing balance, he really wouldn't have been able to stand up.
Jiang Wu moved quickly along the undulating back of the snake, searching for a suitable point to exert force.
He quickly identified a relatively isolated area that was also conveniently located for exerting force.
Jiang Wu took a deep breath, channeling all his strength into his right arm. The Level 4 Rat King Claw Blade, accompanied by a piercing shriek that tore through the air, slashed down fiercely!
"Clang—!!!"
A deafeningly loud clang of metal clashing rang out!
It even sent up a tiny string of sparks!
Jiang Wu looked closely and was startled!
The level four Rat King Claw Blade, which was powerful enough to easily cut through steel, only left a slash about two-thirds deep on this dark blue scale!
It failed to completely eradicate it!
The scales were much harder than he had anticipated!
"Such hard scales!"
Jiang Wu's eyes grew even more serious. Without hesitation, he swung his claw blade again, slashing precisely at the same spot!
"Snap!"
This time, accompanied by a teeth-grinding cracking sound, the severely damaged scale was finally severed and flew away.
However, because the snake's scales are arranged in an overlapping pattern.
Below the cut, there was another dark blue scale.
Although a crack was cut into this dark blue scale, it still didn't hurt it!
That means you have to cut through this scale again to get to the snake's skin!
This left Jiang Wu speechless.
This level four sea serpent's defensive capabilities are simply insane!
The level-four mutated wild boar I killed back then was nothing compared to this sea serpent!
Could this giant sea serpent be a high-level or even peak fourth-order serpent?
No wonder the energy emanating from that mysterious substance on its body was incredibly concentrated!
Furthermore, its evolutionary direction is clearly extremely biased towards defense and strength!
It only broke one scale, and didn't even count as causing a minor injury.
For a sea snake of such a massive size, it might not even be considered a mosquito bite; it might not even be aware of it.
It continued to devour zombies frantically, writhing and destroying buildings.
It's time to get serious!
Without hesitation, Jiang Wu put away the Level 4 Rat King Claw Blade and pulled out the Level 5 Sky-Splitting Beast Claw Blade from the system storage space!
"Try this!" A fierce glint flashed in Jiang Wu's eyes as he aimed at the spot where the outer scales had just been broken, and the Level 5 Sky-Splitting Beast Claw Blade slashed down fiercely!
This time, there was almost no resistance!
"Sizzle—!"
A soft sound, like a hot knife cutting into solidified butter!
The scales that had already been cut open, along with the thick skin underneath, were easily sliced apart.
The giant blade penetrated deep into the giant sea serpent's body, leaving a wound that was over a meter long and several tens of centimeters deep!
Dark red blood, with a strong, fishy smell, gushed from the wound instantly, staining the surrounding blue scales.
The interplay of red and blue creates a surprisingly poignant beauty.
Without pausing, Jiang Wu struck again with his blade.
Without the protection of scales and snake skin, Jiang Wu's knife pierced the snake's body as easily as cutting tofu!
The wound was further enlarged and deepened, and the blood gushed out even faster!
It's done!
Level 5 weapons are indeed powerful!
Jiang Wu felt somewhat relieved, and gained a more intuitive understanding of the power of the Level 5 mutated material.
Although the wounds inflicted were still insignificant compared to the sea snake's enormous size.
It's like an adult getting a shallow cut on their thigh from a utility knife.
But at least it proves that as long as you have enough time, you can definitely use a level 5 Sky-Splitting Beast Claw Blade to make a ring cut on it!
Just then.
The giant sea serpent, which had been engrossed in devouring and destruction, suddenly stopped without warning!
All movements, whether crushing, devouring, or swinging, came to an abrupt halt at this moment!
It was as if time had been paused.
Immediately afterwards, an indescribable, almost tangible, terrifying sense of oppression surged from the front like a tsunami!
Jiang Wu suddenly looked up.
About a hundred meters ahead, the enormous blue "wall" began to rise and grow higher violently!
With a deafening roar and countless rubble and snow falling, the giant serpent's hideous head, along with more than a third of its terrifying body, suddenly stood upright from the ruins and dust!
Like skyscrapers rising from the ground!
Forty meters!
Fifty meters!
Sixty meters!
Even higher!
Its upright height easily surpasses that of any of the nearby buildings that have not yet completely collapsed!
Because of the angle.
The enormous shadow instantly enveloped a large area below, including where Jiang Wu was!
The sunlight was completely blocked, as if the daytime had instantly turned into dusk!
Jiang Wu had to look up to see the terrifying head that towered into the clouds, covered with bone armor and pale, giant eyes!
Those two pale, emotionless vertical pupils, like two enormous searchlights, slowly rotated.
Ultimately, they focused their attention on Jiang Wu, this "insignificant" individual!
A sense of oppression!
