Chapter 372: Violent Storm, an Immortal Saves the Day!

Liu Ming had already fallen into despair.

Even with his wealth of experience, his brain had simply stopped thinking in the face of such a terrifying scene.

Ocean whirlpools were generally not very large or dangerous. Only places with highly unusual surrounding geography produced massive whirlpools capable of swallowing people whole.

However, when a storm struck the open sea, everything changed.

Under the right conditions, the ocean winds and waves could form a terrifying whirlpool that would only grow larger and more frightening!

Liu Ming had once heard the older generation tell stories about a fleet from their village that had encountered such a whirlpool. Several ships were swallowed, and the men were never seen again.

He never imagined he would actually run into one himself.

His fishing boat's engine was already pushed to maximum horsepower, but the vessel was still being dragged backward at a visible rate.

Getting swallowed was only a matter of time.

His heart turned to dead ashes; Liu Ming had given up.

Fortunately, the other boats in the fleet had managed to escape.

It was just a pity for the brothers on this boat who had come out to sea with him.

But right at that moment, Liu Ming heard Ning Fei's voice crackle through the radio.

"Captain Liu, dump all the fish immediately!"

"I'm heading toward you right now!"

Those words instantly snapped Liu Ming out of his chaotic daze.

Right, dump the fish.

The boat's holds were packed full of their harvested seafood, adding a massive amount of weight to the vessel.

As long as the boat became lighter, the engine's horsepower would be enough to resist the whirlpool's pull.

"Open the holds! Dump the fish!"

Liu Ming immediately roared at his crew.

The crew members had been paralyzed by terror, their bodies refusing to obey them.

Now, hearing Liu Ming's shout, they sprang into action.

The holds were thrown open, and countless fish poured frantically out the side of the boat and into the sea.

The vessel grew lighter and lighter, and its backward slide began to slow.

It seemed they had actually managed to stabilize, at least for the moment.

Through the drone, the viewers were watching this rescue unfold.

Rainwater constantly washed over the drone's camera, creating an even more terrifying atmosphere in Ning Fei's Live-stream Room.

Everyone watched as the Qingfeng Cruise Ship turned around just as it neared the fishing boat, actually backing slowly toward it stern-first.

At the rear of Ning Fei's ship was a crane arm, the same one he had used earlier to catch crabs.

A steel cable hung from the arm.

The scene was truly frightening!

The viewers watched as Ning Fei actually stepped out of the captain's cabin and walked out onto the stern, braving the howling wind and rain.

What was he doing!

Everyone was stunned!

At this moment, the Qingfeng Cruise Ship pitched and rolled heavily with the waves.

If an ordinary person were in such an environment, the slightest misstep would see them thrown off the ship by a rogue wave.

But Ning Fei simply stood out there on the deck.

He was still wearing his Daoist Robe style short sleeves and shorts.

His signature Daoist topknot had been blown loose by the wind, making him look even more carefree and dashing.

Everyone watched as Ning Fei went straight to the stern, operated the crane arm, and lowered one end of the steel cable.

"Bai, reverse the ship, keep getting closer!"

Amidst the wind and rain, Ning Fei shouted the command to his AI.

"Yes, Captain!"

The Qingfeng Cruise Ship continued to slowly back up until its stern was right next to the bow of the fishing boat.

Since the Qingfeng was a cruise ship, its deck was roughly two meters higher than that of the fishing boat.

Then, a scene that made everyone's heart stop played out in the live-stream room.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared over the storm-tossed sea. In the distance spun a massive black whirlpool that looked ready to devour everything on the ocean's surface!

It was against this backdrop that Ning Fei, standing at the stern of the Qingfeng Cruise Ship with the steel cable's iron hook in hand, leaped directly off the ship!

Everyone's pupils violently contracted!

The image seemed to freeze. Everyone saw Ning Fei floating through the air like an immortal undergoing heavenly tribulation in this terrifying scene, before landing firmly on the fishing boat.

Though floods and tsunamis raged, he remained as steady as a mountain.

Fuck!

Temple Master Ning!

So badass!

An immortal! I saw an immortal!

The viewers only had time to gasp in amazement.

Because the current situation was far too critical, everyone's hearts were still tightly clenched.

Ning Fei sprinted a few steps forward, secured the steel cable to a thick pillar on the fishing boat, and snapped the iron hook shut.

In the wheelhouse, Liu Ming froze completely at the sight of Ning Fei's sudden appearance.

He thought his eyes were playing tricks on him.

"Is this an illusion?"

Liu Ming muttered to himself, his mouth hanging wide open.

At that moment, he saw Ning Fei shoot him a thumbs-up, signaling that it was 'done'.

Liu Ming knew it was real.

"An immortal! So there really are immortals!"

His mind went completely blank.

Ning Fei's image was permanently burned into his mind.

In such a doomsday-like scenario, perhaps only an immortal could be so calm.

Immortals saving the world, Daoists saving people—perhaps there was no difference at all.

"I actually know a living immortal."

Countless people were watching this scene unfold.

Across all the major streaming platforms, the popularity of Ning Fei's Live-stream Room had exploded.

Countless viewers were donating, sending gifts, smashing the like button, and flooding the screen with comments.

Then, another scene occurred that made everyone cry out in shock.

The backdrop was just as terrifying as before.

Ning Fei stood on the fishing boat, took a few running steps through the torrential downpour, and stepped directly onto the freshly secured steel cable.

Stepping on the steel wire, he lightly tapped his way across it with a few quick steps before floating effortlessly back onto the cruise ship.

The sight was exactly like a martial arts master straight out of a movie.

Right in the middle of this horrifying scene, he executed his Light Kung Fu with dashing, handsome movements, looking exactly like an immortal!

This scene was explosively cool!

This...

The viewers were dumbfounded!

From Ning Fei leaping off the cruise ship, to him floating back across the steel cable.

Every single one of Ning Fei's movements challenged the limits of the viewers' understanding!

An immortal! Only an immortal could achieve something like this!

This is a true immortal!

Temple Master Ning, Immortal Ning, I'm completely in awe!

So fucking badass!

Watching this has me so hyped!

Temple Master Ning! So fierce!

After returning to the stern of the Qingfeng Cruise Ship, Ning Fei first let out more of the steel cable, trying to ensure the angle between the cable and the sea surface was as small as possible.

This way, the pulling force would reach its maximum.

Then, Ning Fei commanded through the storm:

"Bai, activate S-class power, full speed ahead!"

"Yes, Captain!"

The Qingfeng Cruise Ship suddenly roared to life.

Countless white waves churned beneath the hull of the vessel.

Next, the viewers watched as the Qingfeng Cruise Ship dragged the fishing boat along, steadily driving away from the ocean whirlpool.

Towing the fishing boat, the cruise ship inched away from the terrifying gates of hell.

Finally, they reached the outer edge of the whirlpool, and the fishing boat was able to sail normally again.

"We're saved!"

Liu Ming slumped to the floor, gasping violently for air as he muttered softly.

In the live-stream room, the viewers' cheers completely erupted.
