Tomb Raiding: All Things Merge, Starting with 400x Strength

A huge black shadow on the seabed kept approaching Zhang Hao. Zhang Hao discovered that the shadow was tens of meters long, like a giant dragon. When it got closer, he realized that it was a terrifying black fish. Its whole body was covered with huge black scales, like armor. Its eyes were on the top of its head, and it seemed to rely on its sense of smell to find its prey.

Zhang Hao recalled hearing about a terrifying deep-sea creature he had heard of before, the Black Dragonfish, which was completely black and resembled an alien creature, much like Venom from the movies.

They will attack any living creature in their vicinity.

Suddenly, the black dragonfish lunged at Zhang Hao. As Zhang Hao dodged the attack, he punched the black dragonfish on the head. The force of over ten thousand tons hit the black dragonfish's head, but it didn't crack it; it only dented it.

Zhang Hao was shocked. He had never seen such a terrifying creature before, no wonder his body was giving him a warning.

The black dragonfish's enormous body looked particularly ferocious in the dim seawater, surrounded by a chilling aura of darkness, as if it were a demon crawling out of the depths of hell.

Zhang Hao could sense that this was not just a simple fish; every inch of its scales concealed astonishing power and unknown secrets.

The black dragonfish's attack did not stop despite Zhang Hao's dodge. It seemed to be completely enraged, its huge body churning in the seawater, each tail swing creating towering waves that shook the entire underwater world.

Zhang Hao had to be more careful, using his agility to look for opportunities to counterattack during the gaps in the black dragonfish's attacks.

However, the black dragonfish's defense was beyond imagination. Even Zhang Hao's punch, which was powerful enough to shake mountains, only left a shallow dent on its head and could not cause any real damage.

This made Zhang Hao realize that against such an enemy, simple physical attacks were clearly not enough.

Just then, a thought flashed through Zhang Hao's mind: since the black dragonfish's scales were so hard, its blood must also contain even more powerful energy.

If one could absorb this blood, perhaps one's Qilin bloodline could undergo an unprecedented evolution.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao's eyes became firm and resolute. He decided to take a gamble and use his blood-sucking ability to fight against the Black Dragon Fish.

He took a deep breath, adjusted his mindset, and then charged at the black dragonfish again.

This time, he didn't try to fight it head-on with his fists. Instead, he skillfully avoided the black dragonfish's attack and quickly approached its body.

In the instant he approached, a thought flashed through his mind, and his blood-sucking ability was instantly activated. His hands seemed to transform into invisible straws, frantically drawing blood from the black dragonfish's body.

The black dragonfish felt an unprecedented threat. It let out a deafening roar and struggled violently with its entire body.

But Zhang Hao had already seized the opportunity. His blood-sucking ability was brought to its fullest potential at this moment, and powerful energy surged into his body continuously, causing the evolution of the Qilin bloodline to accelerate wildly.

[Ding! Bloodline evolution progress +50!]

This number shocked Zhang Hao. He had never imagined that sucking blood from the black dragonfish could yield such huge profits.

He became even more determined and continued to absorb the blood of the black dragonfish with all his might.

The black dragonfish's struggles grew weaker and weaker until it finally collapsed helplessly on the seabed, becoming yet another victim on Zhang Hao's path of evolution.

However, Zhang Hao did not let his guard down because of this.

He knew that the deep sea held many more unknown dangers and challenges.

He looked around and found that the surrounding seawater seemed to have become more turbulent because of the death of the black dragonfish, as if more creatures were attracted by the smell of blood.

Zhang Hao took a deep breath, preparing to face the challenge ahead.

He knew that his deep-sea adventure had only just begun, and there were many more unknowns waiting for him to explore and conquer.

He clenched his fists, his eyes blazing, as if he could already see himself standing atop the deep sea, looking down upon all living beings.

In the following time, Zhang Hao continued to venture deeper into the sea, engaging in fierce battles with various powerful marine creatures.

Each victory brought him closer to his goal: to evolve the Qilin bloodline to level 9 and increase its purity enough to open bronze chests.

With the demise of the black dragonfish, Zhang Hao's deep-sea journey reached a turning point.

He stood beside the enormous corpse of the creature, feeling the powerful energy surging within him from the blood-sucking, his heart filled with both the joy of victory and awe for the unknown challenges ahead.

He knew this was just the beginning; deeper into the ocean and more powerful creatures awaited his exploration and conquest.

Zhang Hao took a deep breath, composed himself, and his eyes gleamed with determination and resolve.

He knew that only by moving forward could he uncover the secrets of the deep sea and achieve his goal.

He dived into the darkness of the seabed once more, this time observing his surroundings with even greater caution.

Various strange creatures float in the sea, some shimmering with an eerie light, while others are completely hidden in darkness and difficult to detect.

With his keen senses, Zhang Hao cautiously swam around, searching for his next target.

Soon, he noticed the silhouette of a huge creature looming in the darkness in the distance.

The creature was enormous, seemingly several times larger than the black dragonfish, and was surrounded by an even more powerful aura.

Zhang Hao felt a chill run down his spine, knowing that this opponent would be even more formidable. But he didn't back down; instead, he approached with even greater excitement.

As the distance closed, Zhang Hao finally saw the creature's true form.

It was a gigantic deep-sea monster, its body covered with a hard shell, like a mobile fortress on the seabed.

Its eyes gleamed with a ghostly green light, revealing a primal and wild power.

Zhang Hao knew this would be a tough battle, but he was prepared.

He took a deep breath, adjusted his mindset, and then suddenly accelerated, charging towards the deep-sea behemoth.

In the instant he approached, he deftly dodged the giant beast's attack, simultaneously extending his hands to prepare to unleash his blood-sucking ability.

However, the deep-sea behemoth reacted exceptionally quickly. It seemed to have sensed Zhang Hao's intentions and immediately launched a counterattack.

In an instant, the underwater world was engulfed in fierce battle.

Zhang Hao and the deep-sea monster went back and forth, neither giving an inch.

With his agility and exceptional intelligence, Zhang Hao repeatedly deflected the giant beast's attacks and sought opportunities to counterattack.

The giant sea monster, with its enormous body and astonishing strength, launched a series of fierce attacks on Zhang Hao, attempting to defeat him in one fell swoop.

During this battle, Zhang Hao gradually discovered that the deep-sea behemoth's defense was much stronger than that of the black dragon fish.

Even with his full-force attack, he could hardly leave a mark on its carapace.

But he did not give up; instead, he focused even more intently on finding the giant beast's weakness.

He noticed that although the giant beast's shell was incredibly hard, there were some tiny cracks at its joints.

These cracks might be his breakthrough point.

Therefore, Zhang Hao began to adjust his tactics.

He no longer blindly attacked the giant beast's shell, but instead used his speed and agility to constantly move around the beast, looking for an opportunity to attack.

Finally, after a skillful dodge, he successfully seized an opening in the behemoth and punched it in the crack at its joint.

With a deafening roar, a crack finally appeared in the beast's shell.

Zhang Hao was overjoyed at the sight and immediately activated his blood-sucking ability.

His hands seemed to transform into invisible straws, frantically sucking the blood from the giant beast's body.

Powerful energies surged into his body, causing his Qilin bloodline to evolve once again.

[Ding! Bloodline evolution progress +100!]

This number shocked Zhang Hao. He realized that the evolutionary benefits from the blood extracted from the deep-sea behemoth this time far exceeded those before.

He became even more determined and continued to absorb the beast's blood with all his might.

The giant beast's struggles grew weaker and weaker until it finally collapsed helplessly on the seabed, becoming another milestone in Zhang Hao's evolutionary journey.

After the battle, Zhang Hao did not leave immediately.

He looked around and found that the surrounding seawater had returned to calm.

But he knew that this was only temporary peace.

Countless unknown dangers and challenges still lurk in the deep sea, waiting for him to explore and conquer.

He clenched his fists, his gaze fixed intently on the deeper seabed, his heart filled with curiosity about the unknown and a thirst for power.
