It is a lake hidden among the vast mountains. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The lake is wide and calm, with emerald green water reflecting the blue sky and bright daylight, and the air is moist and sweet.

It's quiet, not in the ordinary sense of the word, but deathly.

Within a radius of three miles from the lakeside, you can't hear any birds and cicadas, as if there is no trace of life.

Wei Yue walked cautiously, and in his hand, a small beast that had just been captured from five miles away struggled desperately, and the closer it got to the lake, the stronger its reaction became.

However, with the pitiful strength of its low-level desolate beast, it was obviously not enough to get rid of the shackles of the seven-vein martial artist, and it could only wail in vain.

Wei Yue went straight to the edge of the lake, and then he glanced down at the little beast that was already paralyzed with fright, there was not the slightest sympathy or apology in his eyes, not even the slightest mood swing.

He pulled a dagger from his waist, and in the sunlight, the thin blade glistened, as if in some kind of preparation, and it took a long time for him to take a deep breath and quickly cut the fur of the little beast's leg.

A faint smell of blood suddenly rushed into his nose, and he raised his hand to throw the little beast at his feet, and turned around and ran wildly without thinking.

As if smelling death, the little beast struggled with its limp body to escape.

As it struggled, a large amount of blood mixed into the lake, completely staining the nearby water surface red.

At this time, the originally calm water surface suddenly rippled, and a wave suddenly spread rapidly from the center of the lake to the lakeside.

The furious aura permeated the entire lake for no reason, and even Wei Yue, who had already run out of ten meters away, couldn't help but stagnate, and his speed slowed down.

And the little beast was already frightened and collapsed to the ground.

Crash!

The waves were getting closer and closer, and suddenly there was a splash in the sky, and a huge black snake the size of a bucket slowly emerged from the water.

The serpent's body was extremely long, nearly two feet above the water, like a dark cloud to block the sun.

Its huge eyes were indifferent, just staring at the little beast below.

The little beast was now completely curled into a ball, and its eyes were full of despair and helplessness.

Hiss!

The serpent swallowed its blood-red core, suddenly opened its huge mouth, and bit down at an indescribable speed.

Rumble!

There was a loud bang, and countless water columns exploded out of thin air, just an action of opening the mouth to swallow, and it actually had such a terrifying power.

However, just as it was about to bite its prey, a faint white light suddenly flickered in the distance.

In the next moment, I saw the little beast retreat towards the forest on the shore at a faster speed.

The serpent's mouth suddenly fell into the air, and it slammed into the lake, and for a time the black water mixed with silt covered the sky.

It was furious, its cold triangular eyes staring at the little beast that had escaped death with a bewildered face, and it did not hesitate to shrink and flick.

Shout!

Like an arrow from the string, the whole body broke away from the lake and chased after it.

At this time, Wei Yue, who was hidden in the forest, moved.

The thick-backed broadsword exploded with an astonishing sword aura under his control, and slashed at the huge head of the giant snake in the air: "Kill!"

The serpent apparently didn't expect a creature to lurk near its territory, and in mid-air it let out a low, angry roar, and the blood-colored core spat out like lightning.

The sound of an air explosion suddenly sounded in the air, and almost instantly, it had collided with Wei Yue's broadsword.

Wei Yue only felt that an irresistible tremendous force was transmitted from the blade to the palm of his hand, and the violent force shook his hands numbly.

Not only that, but with the snake core swallowing, the giant snake suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and an incomparably condensed black mist came straight towards him.

Black Water Snake Venom!

Wei Yue's face changed, and he quickly fell down without thinking about it, and at the same time shouted in his mouth: "Gao Shao!"

A response came from the woods not far from where he had been hiding.

At this time, the snake core had already bent in the air, and it was extremely agile and pursued.

Click!

Seeing the powerful snake core approaching the top of his head, a strange sound came from the air, and then a huge ice shield suddenly protected his body.

With a bang, the snake core slammed into the ice shield, instantly splitting the ice shield apart.

The giant snake was obviously not feeling well, and between its mouth opening and closing, it had withdrawn its snake core.

Disturbed by Wei Yue like this, it had long forgotten about the poor little beast, it swung its tail in the air, and the sharp snake tail instantly pierced into the ground, supporting its huge body straight up.

Suddenly, it opened its bloody mouth and swallowed it towards Wei Yue.

Shout!

The silence of the forest was heard again, and a streamer of light shot into its mouth in the blink of an eye.

Foul-smelling snake blood gushed out, and the giant snake shivered in pain, but it had already locked on to the location of the sneak attacker.

With a flick of its tail, it was pulled back from the ground, and it rushed into the woods with great speed to find the killer who had wounded it.

At this time, Wei Yue, who fell to the ground, rolled over and swung his knife again.

Clang!

The thick-backed broadsword stood at the tail of the giant snake without any pretense, making a sound of gold and iron, only to see the black scales suddenly explode, and flesh and blood flew out from under the blade.

The serpent was in pain, its tail raised suddenly, and it was drawn in the air.

Wei Yue had already taken precautions, and after the knife was deployed, he quickly retreated backwards, just in the range of the tail volley.

The snake's tail slapped to the ground, the earth shook, and all the trees and flowers within a radius of one mile were smashed by the huge force.

The four figures fled out of the forest in embarrassment, and merged with Wei Yue.

It was Lei Luo and the others.

This was the second day they had arrived at this chosen hunting spot, and with Wei Yue's experienced experience, it didn't take much effort for them to find the target of the hunt.

The Black Water Snake, a high-level desolate beast, can forge soldiers with scale teeth, and can be used in medicine.

The value of a black water snake is about 30,000 taels of silver, and if it is on the black market, it will be even higher.

The Black Water Snake is extremely difficult to deal with, it is invulnerable to scales, and its huge body is infinitely powerful, especially since it hides under the water all year round, even if the innate martial artist collides with it, there is nothing to be done.

However, this was not difficult for Wei Yue, and everyone discussed the countermeasures, so he captured a small beast alive and tied it with a rope as bait.

The Black Water Snake was really fooled, and was led out of its nest.

It rushed into the woods, but did not find any trace of Lei Luo and the others, but stabbed its tail again.

The intense pain made it almost go berserk, and as soon as the snake's tail fell into the air, its huge body coiled up.

Hiss!

At this time, it saw Wei Yue and the others, and its fierce eyes showed strong hatred.

"Tsk, this beast is really big enough!"

Gao Chao, who was supported by Lei Luo and Feng Xinyue, looked at the giant snake hill as if he was in a body, and said weakly: "Uncle Wei, what should I do next?"

According to the countermeasures discussed earlier, after luring the Black Water Snake out of its lair, Wei Yue was responsible for the main attack, and everyone was on the side.

Unexpectedly, its perception and speed were terrifying, and as soon as it was injured, it immediately detected everyone's hiding place.

Although Lei Luo and Feng Xinyue reacted extremely quickly, and immediately escaped with the mastery of exhausting all their strength due to the activation of the special move, the negotiated containment measures also failed.

Wei Yue didn't expect this to be the result, he smiled bitterly: "What else can I do? Either fight it to the death, or we will evacuate first, and then slowly plot!"

High-level desolate beasts, even in the face of innate martial artists, have the power to fight.

When everyone discussed countermeasures before, they had already thought of the possibility of failure, and they were not disappointed at this time.

Feng Xinyue held a longbow in her hand and said in a deep voice: "This time it's a startling snake, let's withdraw first!"

Lei Luo thought about it, and shook his head: "The price of fighting to the death is too great, let's withdraw!"

The three of them reached an agreement in an instant, and they wanted to leave here.

Strange to say, after the Black Water Snake was injured, it was originally furious and crazy, and the purpose of coiling together was to better attack.

However, for some reason, when he saw Lei Luo and the others, he didn't make any movements at all.

It's as if he's afraid of something, but there is a strong sense of jealousy in his eyes.

Seeing that everyone showed their intention to retreat, it had no intention of chasing and killing at all.

Lei Luo and Wei Yue had always been worried that this beast would not be relentless, but when they saw this scene, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, the girl who was closely following Lei Luo suddenly asked, "This is your prey, can you kill it and go back to the city to help me repair Shengyao?"

"Kill it......"

Lei Luo paused, glanced at Feng Xinyue, and said with a wry smile: "Let's not say that this beast is so powerful, even if you can kill it, I'm afraid it won't be enough to guarantee the ranking!"

Feng Xinyue thought for a while and said, "If we can hunt ten high-level desolate beasts, it should be enough for me and Gao Chao to get the quota for the government examination!"

Speaking of which, she was also depressed, and this trial was simply unlucky.

On the first night, they were assassinated, and everyone cautiously wandered around the periphery for five whole days, and the harvest was naturally pitiful and sad.

I thought that I could catch up with the progress of other students by going deep into Daze, but I never thought that the team had infighting, and the strongest Gao Minghui was also killed!

Although she also has a share of the credit here, there is no doubt that it will affect the results of the trial.

At this time, the failure to hunt the Black Water Snake made her pretty face even more gloomy.

Hearing Lei Luo and Feng Xinyue's words, the girl lowered her head as if thinking about something, and after a while, she smiled brightly: "Then ten, after you say that you have made up the number, you have to go back to the city to help me!"

Her beautiful eyes sparkled as she stared at Lei Luo.

Lei Luo was dumbfounded, just thinking that she was joking, and said casually: "No problem!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw the girl untie the long sword and slowly walk towards the black water snake.

Feng Xinyue was startled: "Hey, come back quickly, it's too dangerous!"

Gao Chao also shouted: "Girl, what are you doing!"

Lei Luo's face changed, and he chased after him, and he was about to pull the girl back.

Who knew that this girl seemed to be slow, but when she stepped out, she had already come to the front of the Black Water Snake.

The serpent was about to burrow back into the lake, when it sensed someone coming, and its body froze, and its huge head met it.

"Little snake, borrow your life!"

The girl's voice was still a little hoarse, but after a night of recovery, it was much better, and it was very crisp and pleasant.

Lei Luo followed behind him, and almost fainted when he heard this.

Lend your life to the ...... This is simply arrogant to the extreme.

Without hesitation, he reached out and grabbed the girl's arm.

At this time, I saw the girl suddenly swing her sword.

The dazzling light suddenly spreads all over the lakeside!

Boom!

In the sharp sound of breaking the air, blood rushed to the sky, and I saw that the huge head of the giant snake instantly broke away from its body......
