Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 2581 Fear

Tara struggled to keep himself afloat, his entire body splashing on the surface of the water. He seemed to have enough energy to keep swimming, but from what Alex could see, he was still going under.

Something was dragging him.

Alex immediately dragged the giant fish with him, making his way through the ocean. He kicked the water behind him so fast that he exploded forward, even surfacing. There, he continued kicking on it, and at some point, he was pretty much running on water.

Tara went under right as Alex arrived, so Alex immediately dove in, swimming toward him. To Alex's amazement, the thing that had caught onto Tara was an octopus, wrapping its tentacles around his leg as it dragged him.

The water around him was pitch black from its ink, making it difficult to see, but Alex could make out its shape.

What surprised Alex the most was that the octopus was rather small. It wasn't a regular-sized octopus, of course, but it wasn't that big that it should be a problem for Tara. This octopus was nearly three times smaller than the fish he had caught the other day.

Tara still flailed around underwater, panicking so much that he couldn't even think straight at the moment. All he really had to do was unwrap those tentacles and swim away.
