Chapter 41: The Bottom of the River
This giant Jiao is covered with hard scales, and its protective ability is amazing.
"Sting!", Li Shengtian's spear stabbed on the scale armor of the giant jiao, drawing a dazzling light, and the scale armor of the giant jiao was cut out of a long spear mark, and there were blood stains looming.
At the same time, the giant Jiao spat out a water arrow and hit Li Shengtian's chest. Li Shengtian's spiritual power shield was instantly broken, and the whole person's qi and blood surged, and even the people and boats retreated dozens of meters away.
Although this giant Jiao only has a condensation stage, its strength is strong, and it is not much different from the vulture that Li Shengtian and the others fought fiercely when they came, but that vulture has the cultivation of the Divine Pill realm.
The bones in his chest seemed to be broken, and Li Shengtian felt a heart-piercing pain, he must kill this giant Jiao as soon as possible, otherwise his life would be in danger, and he would no longer retain his strength at the moment, and his whole body's spiritual power was mobilized, and he used his strongest attack, which he named "Lightning Strike".
The spear pointed at the giant Jiao, and the spiritual power passed through the tip of the spear, forming a condensed spiritual power beam, and the highly concentrated spiritual power beam crossed the distance of dozens of meters and fell down on the giant Jiao's abdomen.
With a "bang", the huge body of the giant Jiao rolled violently under the blow of this spiritual power beam, and a thick wound appeared in its abdomen.
Under the pain of the giant Jiao, roaring again and again, the huge body stirred the river, for a time the huge waves on the river surface were monstrous, the giant Jiao felt the threat of death in this small human being, it was unwilling, suddenly raised its body, the surrounding river quickly condensed on its body, forming a huge water dragon, the water dragon swirled, quickly rotated towards Li Shengtian, the terrifying suction made Li Shengtian even if he was more than ten meters apart, he also felt that it was difficult to move, if he was caught in the water scroll, he would definitely be stirred to pieces.
What a domineering giant Jiao! Li Shengtian once again adjusted the spiritual power in the group, the blow just now, the spiritual power in the body actually consumed a quarter, in the face of this attack of the giant Jiao, Li Shengtian knew that there was no way to avoid it, and he had to do his best to kill it.
A beam of spiritual power that was even more brilliant than before burst out from the tip of the spear, and when the waterspout formed by the giant Jiao arrived, it exploded into the water scroll.
A wild roar came from the water roll, followed by an earth-shattering explosion, and at this moment, Li Shengtian was swept away and fell fiercely from a high altitude into the river.
Li Shengtian, who didn't know the outcome, struggled to surface, looked at the place where the battle had just begun, and silently used the little spiritual power he had left, ready to make a final attack.
A giant Jiao corpse of more than 100 meters was floating quietly on the river, the neck of the giant Jiao was broken, and the river surface was bright red, and it was completely silent.
Li Shengtian exhaled a long breath, and then he felt that his whole body seemed to be weak and weak, and he had to hurry ashore to find a place to recover from his injuries, in this dangerous secret realm, it was not a good thing to be injured.
Looking at the huge body of the giant Jiao, a thought suddenly popped up in Li Shengtian's mind, that is, whether there would be any treasures in this giant Jiao's lair, a demon beast like this must occupy a place of spiritual power to cultivate, so that it is possible to achieve cultivation.
Li Shengtian decided to go ashore first, and wait until he recovered from his injuries and recovered his spiritual power before coming to the river to find out.
At this moment, he was only a few hundred meters away from the other side of the river, maybe it was the nest of this giant Jiao, Li Shengtian stepped on a piece of driftwood, urging the only little spiritual power left in his body, and when he drove towards the opposite bank, there was no water demon blocking him along the way.
A hundred meters away from the riverbank, under a giant tree that can only be embraced by several adults, Li Shengtian is sitting in the cave of the tree, which is soft sawdust, and it is very comfortable to sit in it.
On this trip, he prepared some elixirs to heal injuries and replenish spiritual power, such as Xiao Yuan Dan, a third-level elixir, which was specially used for the elixir of spiritual power replenishment by monks in the enlightenment period, which he bought from the Zongmen Alchemy Hall for a thousand lower-grade spirit stones.
After swallowing the pill, Li Shengtian breathed a sigh of relief and quietly digested the pill.
The night was coming soon, and there was a sudden sound of animal neighing by the river, Li Shengtian was sure that there must be a group of beasts drinking by the river at this time, he held his breath and concentrated, unwilling to attract the attention of some powerful demon beasts, the injury at this moment was half healed, and a few broken bones were coming from a hint of itching, which was a sign of imminent healing, and it might be healed in another day.
When it was dawn, Li Shengtian lay down and rested for a while. After waking up, he did not come out of the tree hole, but continued to swallow a healing pill, and then recovered.
In the early morning of the next day, Li Shengtian finally recovered completely, the spiritual power in his body was more abundant, and there were faint signs of breaking through to the ninth layer of enlightenment.
Emerging from the tree hole, Li Shengtian strode towards the river, and now he was going to search the giant Jiao's lair to see if he could find any treasures.
With a "plop", Li Shengtian jumped into the river, plunged down, and swam towards the depths of the river. The spiritual power quickly covered the surface of his body, forming a protective film that allowed him to breathe freely, however, for the monk, it was completely possible to breathe inside for a day or two, but Li Shengtian was still used to inhaling normally and did not make any more moves.
The water of this big river is also quite deep, and Li Shengtian's divine sense probed to the bottom of the river, and it took about 500 meters or so to come into contact with the silt at the bottom of the river, which shows how terrifying the depth of this river is.
As the depth of the dive became deeper and deeper, the light was no longer so strong, and the river seemed a little dim, Li Shengtian controlled the spiritual power to support the shield, and his divine sense always paid attention to the surrounding environment, in case there was a water demon attack, the pressure under the water was getting bigger and bigger, and with his strong spiritual power reserves, he also felt quite difficult.
The bottom of the river was overgrown with aquatic plants, and some small fish that glowed with their own light swam past Li Shengtian from time to time, and some even curiously touched Li Shengtian's shield, and then were gently flicked away by Li Shengtian's spiritual power.
Finally arrived at the bottom of the river, Li Shengtian's spiritual power was consumed by more than half, and he had to take out a medium-grade spirit stone and hold it in his hand, absorbing and replenishing spiritual power at all times, and maintaining the operation of the body's protective aura.
At the bottom of the river, there are not only aquatic plants spreading and growing, but also many strange boulders, some of which are as tall as a small hillside. Li Shengtian unfolded his divine consciousness and explored in all directions, his divine consciousness could cover a radius of eight hundred meters, which was far higher than the strength of a monk's divine consciousness in the normal realm of enlightenment.
Li Shengtian walked at the bottom of the river, not letting go of every suspicious place, and walked for nearly a thousand meters, and there was a sudden formation fluctuation in front of him, which was the place where two big stones were close together.
Isn't it the lair of the giant jiao? How could it be such a place, there is no appearance of a nest at all! Li Shengtian was puzzled in his heart, but he still walked over cautiously.
This should be an extremely advanced formation, Li Shengtian estimated that it had reached at least level seven, but due to too much time, the operation of the formation had basically stopped, and there were even damages, and now it looked like it was only equivalent to the level of a fifth-level formation.
Li Shengtian has studied formations, he is a fourth-level formation master himself, and it is obviously not difficult to enter the formation in front of him. I saw him take out three small flags from the storage bag and sprinkle them at the bottom of the two boulders, and the array flags disappeared into the formation eye.
I only heard the sound of "creaking" coming from the boulder, the two boulders that were close together slowly separated, and a bright light gate appeared in front of Li Shengtian's eyes, and a rich aura overflowed from the light gate, making people feel comfortable all over.
Could this be the lair of the giant jiao, how did the giant jiao enter? Li Shengtian had great doubts, he took a step and stepped into the formation gate to find out.
The sight inside the gate is a sight to behold!
