Originally, this village had a population of 1,000 households and thousands of people, but the water snake spirit often transformed into a human and entered the village in search of delicious food, and then turned into a black snake and escaped into the river.

This is also the reason why outsiders in the village have taken refuge in the house, because any unfamiliar face may be a water snake spirit.

The people in this village are all food for the water snake spirit, and the water snake spirit is specially aimed at babies or young people under the age of twenty, these people have fine skin and tender meat, which is the delicious food of the water snake.

In just three years, there were only more than 100 people left in the village, most of whom were elderly.

A large number of young people were eaten by the water snake spirit, while some left the village.

These are what the woodcutter told Xu Ran.

"Young man, you better leave quickly, lest you be discovered by the water snake spirit and lose your life" The woodcutter roughly explained what was happening in the village, and tried his best to dissuade Xu Ran from leaving.

After all, this water snake spirit is not even an opponent to protect their land lord, and if this young man encounters a water snake spirit, he will definitely be fed by the water snake spirit.

"Uncle, don't worry, I have been cultivating in the mountains with my master since I was a child, and I have learned something, and dealing with a water snake spirit is a matter of being caught, don't be afraid, today I will do it for the heavens, accept this water snake spirit, and export evil anger for you" Xu Ran comforted.

"You, you are a cultivator" The woodcutter heard Xu Ran say this, and looked at Xu Ran with surprised eyes.

Although he is a mortal, he knows that there are many immortals in the nether realm who live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and those who are lucky will be taken by these immortals as apprentices to learn the Tao of immortals and the art of immortality.

Could it be that what the young man in front of him said is true?

Xu Ran nodded, and then said: "I will accept this water snake now, and return your village a peaceful life."

When the words fell, Xu Ran's figure flashed, appearing in the air of Liuhe dozens of meters away, his spiritual sense unfolded, and through the river, he carefully sensed the demonic energy in the river.

"Woodcutter, who is this man?"

"Is this man a youkai?"

After Xu Ran left, the old man hiding in the house came out to ask the woodcutter.

When the woodcutter saw that Xu Ran could fly, he was like the master he had occasionally seen before, and he was excited to tears: "This young man is a master of the Tao, and he passed by our village today, and he came to help us subdue the water snake spirit, we have been saved, we have been saved."

"The Virtuous Man"

"Immortals"

When the people around heard the woodcutter explain this, they all trembled with excitement.

Because of the arrival of the water snake spirit, the village suffered heavy losses, and among these old people there were sons and grandsons who were eaten by the water snake spirit, and they were full of hatred for the water snake spirit in their hearts.

"God is open"

"God has finally opened his eyes"

Some of the old men knelt on the ground, folded their hands, and showed extremely reverent expressions, repeating 'God has opened his eyes'.

Xu Ran stood above the Liuhe River, his spiritual sense unfolded, through the turbid river, carefully searched for the whereabouts of the water snake spirit, and after a while, Xu Ran sensed that there was a cave at the bottom of the river not far away.

Inside this cave, there is a black strip the thickness of a bucket.

This bucket-thick black water swirled all over his body, his eyes closed, as if he was sleeping, or cultivating.

"Sure enough, it's a black snake that has become a spirit, you are making waves here, eating and killing humans, maybe there is a sense in the dark, God asked me to kill you" Xu Ran muttered to himself.

With a thought in his mind, Xu Ran sacrificed the Qingfeng Sword, and the Qingfeng Sword suddenly became larger, from a slender soft sword that was only more than one meter long, to an enlarged version of the Qingfeng Sword more than ten zhang long.

Xu Ran's sword fingers were brought together, aiming at the river below, and the Qingfeng Sword, which was suspended in mid-air and magnified by more than ten zhang, suddenly rushed into the river.

Rumble!

The Qingfeng Sword stirred the surrounding river, the river was furious, and in the middle of the Qingfeng Sword, a huge whirlpool appeared, the waves were waving, the waves were crashing, and the sound of the water was deafening.

The river was lined up in both directions, and the ground seemed to shake.

At the same time, the water snake spirit at a depth of several tens of meters under the Willow River.

I saw this huge black snake the thickness of a bucket, as if sensing the movement above, suddenly opened its eyes, which were a pair of eyes about the size of an adult's fist.

There was a cold feeling in his pupils.

The water snake spirit spit out the snake letter, opened its mouth, and spit out human eyes: "Damn, I have reached the critical moment of transformation, I was suddenly disturbed, and I fell short, I hate it."

The water serpent spirit roared.

Then, the water snake spirit twisted its huge body, the surrounding bubbles gurgled upward, the river shook, and a black snake dozens of feet long suddenly broke through the water surface and splashed dozens of meters high.

The body of the water snake spirit was nearly a hundred meters, the body was thick, and a huge black and hideous head was held high, and two fist-sized cold eyes stared at Xu Ran below.

In the eyes of the water snake spirit, Xu Ran was just a small human being, about the size of a soybean.

"Youkai, youkai"

When the people on the shore saw the huge water serpent spirit coming out, they were so frightened that they sat down on the ground and fled in all directions.

"Human, this king is cultivating, and he was suddenly disturbed by you, and he fell short, let's say, how do you want to die" The black snake spat out, his voice was full of endless anger, and his two cold eyes were murderous.

As the black snake's words fell, several thick currents of water rolled up around it, circling around the black snake, making a roaring sound, and the momentum was amazing.

"Brute, you brutalize the people, you can't leave you behind, go to death" Xu Ran made a move, and a brilliant sword aura erupted from the Qingfeng Sword, slashing towards the body of the black snake.

This sword qi was as fast as lightning, and it instantly slashed at the black snake's body.

Tear and pull!

The scale armor on the surface of the black snake cracked like a devastation and withering, the blood rained down, the surface of the river turned blood-colored, and the black snake let out a terrible scream, and its huge body writhed.

The black snake looks like a rainbow, but in fact, it is only an ordinary human immortal, not even an earth immortal, and the hard scale armor around it can't even block Xu Ran's most ordinary blow.

"Damn human, I'm going to eat you" Under the stinging pain of the black snake, a pair of eyes filled with a cold look, endured the severe pain, opened its huge mouth, and bit Xu Ran.

Xu Ran's whole person jumped high, holding the Qingfeng Sword, jumped onto the head of the black snake, and then stabbed the head of the black snake with a sword.

The spiritual power continued to pour into the Qingfeng Sword, and the Qingfeng Sword burst out with brilliant light, only to hear a boom, the head of the black snake was directly shattered, and the sky was full of blood.

The huge headless corpse fell limply on the surface of the water, staining the river water in this area red, and the river water turned thick with blood.

This black snake, which looked mighty, became a dead snake.

Glancing at the headless snake corpse floating in the river, after standing for a few seconds, Xu Ran flew to the shore.
