I'm Really Going to Become an Immortal

Chapter 221: Chapter 176 Shipwreck? Time? Detector? Shoot Everything to Pieces!!!_2

What he valued was merely the process of participating in the treasure hunt.

Thinking thus, Chen Yun, whose ideas had grown firm in his heart, had already arrived next to this enormous, ancient wooden shipwreck.

Casually picking up a wooden plank, Chen Yun didn’t even exert much effort, and the plank shattered, drifting apart in all directions with the seawater.

It wasn’t the poor quality of the ancient ship.

It was that time is too merciless.

Chen Yun watched as the wooden fragments, now extremely fragile under the erosion of time and seawater.

He watched them drift far away with the current.

Chen Yun’s thoughts also couldn’t help but unconsciously drift.

Time is a very serious attribute.

From ancient times until now, no person or thing has been able to withstand the passage of time.

Not only do people become dust and bones, but dynasties rise and fall repeatedly, even planets disappear someday.

What about himself then?

Chen Yun couldn’t help asking himself this question.

Under the relentless passage of time, could he endure? Could he transform into a truly immortal existence?

Or, not considering so far into the future, had his lifespan increased with each cycle of slumber evolution?

Chen Yun had no answer to this question.

He could only say, he reckoned that his lifespan had increased through each cycle of evolution.

But there was no actual verification, no strong evidence to prove he truly made significant advances in his lifespan.

Perhaps... he might not be able to achieve longevity?

Yet, given his current state, nearly perpetual like a machine, it seemed more logical for him to achieve longevity, right?

The more he thought, the more agitated Chen Yun became.

Until his rationality balancing mechanism came into play, allowing Chen Yun to regain his Heart Like Ice, unfazed by calamity state.

Looking at the decaying shipwreck before him in the sea.

Chen Yun’s gaze gradually shifted, his wavering spirit slowly faded.

Replaced with full determination.

"If I cannot achieve longevity, then I’ll just meet the same end as you—it’s nothing to fear."

"And I’m confident..."

"I won’t end up like you!"

Muttering, Chen Yun fiercely swung out his right fist.

The strength which had been upgraded to about twelve tons suddenly erupted.

He slowly lifted his arm, and it seemed as if invisible currents of water were drawn by this burgeoning strength, forming whirlpools around him.

Deep-sea creatures felt an unusual disturbance and swerved to avoid it, and even the fierce deep-sea predator sharks weaving through the reefs displayed rare caution and awe.

Following an almost spiritually perceived thunderous roar, that massive arm suddenly swung down, shaking the nearby seas with its strike.

Although the resistance of the water was tremendous, at this moment, it seemed as if even the water made way, as twelve tons of strength were released without reservation.

It was as if a giant on the seabed awoke from slumber.

The seabed sand churned under the shockwave, like being struck by an invisible hammer, and sediments rose to form a spectacular sandstorm, slowly spreading through the water.

Nearby, fragile corals and rocks were lightly touched by the ripple of this force and turned to dust, and even farther solid rocks showed deep cracks.

Under the influence of this strength, water surged with layers of ripples, rapidly propagating in all directions, many marine creatures feeling that distant yet real shock.

And the shipwreck that was targeted.

Its fate was not much better than that of rocks and corals.

That punch, with a thunderous force, struck the sleeping shipwreck. For a moment, time seemed to freeze, followed by a thunderous sound; although the sound should have been muffled underwater, the burst of force made the nearby seascapes tremble.

The wooden structure of the shipwreck at that moment appeared so fragile, like an eggshell meeting a hammer, shattering so thoroughly instantly.

The sound of breaking wood resonated through the water in shocking ripples, and the ancient ship’s wreckage scattered everywhere, like a slow-motion explosion.

Each piece of debris carried the dust of history, slowly sinking into deeper darkness.

In that instant.

It wasn’t just the shipwreck that was shattered.

Chen Yun’s heart, which rarely became anxious.

As he calmly looked around to see everything returning to tranquility, so too did his heart.

Time, this enemy.

You never know who the victor is until the very last moment.

And Chen Yun was certain, he would be the victor.

Weakness, retreat, and anxiety had all been cleared away under the force of the punch just now.

Thinking this,

Chen Yun prepared to leave the place.

However, within the 300-meter sensing range of the Transparent World, a new object suddenly intruded.

The metallic structure, starkly different from its surroundings, unavoidably caught Chen Yun’s attention.

It was clearly an unmanned submersible detector, bearing the flags of the rods and the lighthouse.

About 3 meters long, it resembled a small torpedo but was flatter and larger.

Its surface seemed to have a low detectability coating, but under Chen Yun’s spiritual power, any anti-sonar coating was ineffective.

When it entered within 300 meters of Chen Yun, he immediately detected it.

Unmanned submersible detectors are typically used to explore various underwater environments and can perform multiple tasks, including intelligence gathering, hydrography, anti-submarine warfare, and mine laying and sweeping, etc.

Countries habitually deploy unmanned submersible detectors without any faction markings along the coasts of other nations; after all, intelligence is crucial.

And if there are no faction markings, it doesn’t really matter if they are discovered.

Every year, fishermen from various countries fish out dozens of unmanned submersible detectors that can’t be traced back to any owner.

So, it was not odd that this detector blatantly bore the flag of another country.

In this area of dark reefs, the tallest Su Shi Reef has always been contentious and coveted by various parties.

A few years back, thieves from a certain peninsula audaciously built a sea platform over Su Shi Reef, which rises more than 4 meters above the sea level, claimed it as their territory, and even deployed a portion of their military force to exert actual control.

They also had the backing of a country across the ocean, which could said to be extremely audacious.

Thus, it was not surprising for Chen Yun to encounter this unashamedly identified unmanned submersible detector here.

The reason this unmanned submersible detector had come

was likely due to the loud noise made by Chen Yun’s punch that destroyed the shipwreck.

The constant sonar operational from the sea platform near Su Shi Reef detected something unusual, so they sent this small sonar-equipped device to investigate.

This made Chen Yun narrow his eyes slightly.

With the technology level of the opponents, they definitely couldn’t directly see what was happening over here, and he was sure there were no detectors deployed nearby.

So his presence hadn’t yet been discovered.

At this distance, the other side could only use their inevitably low-precision sonar to vaguely detect the "object" that he was.

But such a small unmanned submersible detector couldn’t possibly be equipped with high-precision sonar.

Moreover, the immense chaotic noise from the exploding shipwreck made it difficult for the approaching unmanned submersible detector to detect clearly.

For now, it could only vaguely confirm the existence of a cylindrical object about two meters in size.

Determining a more precise size and shape was difficult.

Yet, as sonar serves as a means to reflect sound waves to detect the nature, shape, and size of objects, at this distance it was almost instantly deciding.

Chen Yun’s position had essentially been pinpointed.

Should he try to flee, it was likely he wouldn’t outrun the unmanned submersible detector.

His speed was only sixty kilometers per hour, whereas the other side was at least one to two hundred kilometers per hour.

So, after only a moment’s thought,

Not wanting to be caught and discovered, Chen Yun unhesitatingly let his eyes emit a red glow, intending to destroy it before more information was revealed.

Looking toward the direction of the unmanned submersible detector, the red light in his eyes began to accumulate gradually.

The seawater around his eyes also started to boil.

Bubbles burst forth violently and crazily.

An endlessly terrifying momentum began to build.

The next instant,

Two beams of red light shot straight through the sea, carrying an unrivaled strength and heat as they tore through everything, speeding towards the deeper depths of the profound ocean at a terrifying speed.
