Chapter 426 - 254: The Moment of the Hunt
Had it been on land, Li Ang would have certainly sighed a long sigh of relief, but now he was tens of meters deep underwater.
It was not yet time to relax, he still needed to quickly retrieve the [Psychic Crystal] from inside the fish’s belly.
However, having calculated the time he could continue holding his breath at this depth, and having glanced once more at the massive sunfish carcass, Li Ang decided it would be easier to drag the body to the surface and search there.
On land, faced with a sunfish weighing over ten tons and being incredibly large, Li Ang might have been at a loss for what to do for a while, but underwater, buoyancy significantly reduced its effective weight, and the strength required was not too much.
Li Ang fluttered his flippers, quickly ascending with the truck-sized sunfish carcass, and soon reached the surface.
For the average person, ascending this quickly would be unthinkable. The human body, moving from deep to shallow water, experiences a rapid decompression that causes oversaturated nitrogen to become dangerously unsaturated.
This could form bubbles within the body, causing compression, blockages, and other symptoms, which in severe cases could lead to disability or death—this is the decompression sickness that divers dread.
But for Li Ang’s body, this change in pressure was hardly a concern, as his body could regulate itself completely.

"It has been about ten minutes, hasn’t it? There’s still no sign on the surface, it looks like he’s gone."
