Chapter 53: The Seven Phantom Crocodile Lizard Eels
......
Yi Ting walked along the river bank and looked downstream. The update is the fastest and the fastest to the eye
The river seems to be calm, but the banks are full of strange rocks, and many huge rocks are half-submerged in the river, so there is a hidden cháo in between, and if you are not careful, you may be swept into the depths of the water.
However, that is for mortals or beasts, as far as immortal cultivators in the forging period are concerned, short-distance treading water and galloping, riding waves and waves are common things.
It's just that if there is a demon beast hidden in the water, once it is dragged into the water, the only way to leave the river surface is to defeat the river demon in the water, but the difficulty is equivalent to challenging the opponent who has crossed two levels, and the chance of survival is really not high.
Yi Ting looked at the zhōngyāng of the river, his brows were furrowed more and more, because the depth of the river was bottomless, and the shallow riverbed on both sides was full of aquatic plants, so it was impossible to see the things in the water by visual inspection.
However, once the spiritual sense is extended to the water, it is affected by the continuous flow of water, and it is difficult to distinguish whether it is a creature that inhabits the water, especially the water monster beasts have a tendency to collect rest, hiding in the depths of the river or hiding among aquatic plants, and it is more and more difficult to find their traces.
In particular, Yi Ting's understanding of the demon beasts in the water is quite lacking, because in "Strange Beasts", ninety percent of the people introduced are terrestrial demon beasts, but in fact, the types of sea monsters, lake demons or river demons add up to much more than land demons.
However, the cultivation realm of the entire human race has a very limited understanding of the demon beast world in the water, the reason is that only monks who have reached the innate realm can ignore the resistance of the water environment and can go deep into the sea, lake, and river to explore.
But even so, the battle in the water is still dominated by demon beasts, so very few monks will devote themselves to the study of aquatic demon beasts, and the relevant texts that have naturally circulated in the world are even rarer.
Therefore, under the circumstance that he was not familiar with the aquatic demon beast habits, Yi Ting could not infer whether there would be a crisis lurking in it from the geographical environment of this place.
But many times, the sense of danger is an innate instinct.
Because the whole surface of the river is about 500 feet wide, but the open sandstone area on both sides of the river extends outward at least two or three miles away, and then the edge is bordered by forests, hills, cliffs and other landforms, the field of vision is not unbounded, but there are very few animals, birds, and so on.
Seems to be calmly a little unusual?
Yi Ting felt a vague sense of crisis in his heart, but he couldn't confirm it, so he could only continue to walk along the riverbank, hoping to find something abnormal.
Unconsciously, the camp where the Ren group was resting was almost completely covered by some strange rocks, but when Yi Ting turned around to confirm the direction, on a big rock next to the camp, there was a figure sitting on the big rock next to the camp, and it seemed that he was still looking in his direction, and he didn't realize that the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned and showed a smile, but Ren Er should not be able to see it.
Yi Ting speculated about the distance, thinking that if the people crossed the river in batches, then with the speed of the aquatic demon beasts, it was still possible to intercept the members who sneaked up on the back before crossing the river, so he planned to go further downstream to investigate.
Suddenly, a flash of light came into his eyes from the water, and Yi Ting turned his head to look at it intently, not sure if it was the rì light that came out of the water waves, or if there was something under the water with a strange sè color.
However, Yi Ting soon ruled out that it was the reverse shè light on the surface of the water, because a slender object of about three feet could be faintly seen, which was faintly emitting colorful light in the water, but it was impossible to see its specific shape.
Yi Ting still has a vague sense of crisis in his heart, but he can't help but have a strong curiosity about the shining fantasy things.
So after struggling for a long time, I looked around again, and found that there was a towering rock that jutted into the river not far away, a little closer to the place where the colorful light was shining, and its height relative to the river was still quite far away, so it should not be too dangerous.
At that moment, Yi Ting decided to move to the top of the high rock, and then take a good look to see what kind of strange thing was hidden at the bottom of the river.
......
In the camp where the Ren group was stationed, everyone had already disposed of the corpses of the demon apes, and then they were almost paralyzed on the ground, because they had not had a good rest for nearly a night, and they could really take a breath at this time.
"It's really tiring to cut the skin, cut the meat, cramp, and pull out the bones of so many demon apes in one go. "When there was silence for a while, Rengo would definitely be the first to speak.
"This is also a technical job for us, it's always good to practice more, you look at that Ren Qi, all the dissecting will be completed in three or two clicks, but his knife is really sharp, and I'm going to find a piece of jīng iron ore to build one another day." Ren Si was the first to reply, as long as it was related to cultivation, he had a strong interest.
"Exactly, the short knife given in this door, when I stab into the body of the demon beast, it will still give my hands numb, next time I want to find the jīng iron mine, don't forget me. Ren Roku replied sympathetically.
"Hey, in that case, then when this team mission is over, let's go find the Jīng iron ore together, that Rensan, what's wrong with you? You're so tired that you can't speak?" Renwu proposed, but it was strange that Rensan, who usually likes to raise bars with him, was a little quiet and weird at this time.
"Rengo... That..."Ren San exited, but hesitated for a while, not knowing what he wanted to say.
"Rensan, are you injured?!" Renwu felt that Rensan was really abnormal, and hurriedly asked with concern.
"I'm sorry... I was there at the time, but I couldn't help you... Almost..."Ren San suddenly came out of nowhere, and this intermittent sentence came out of nowhere.
However, Ren Wuleng paused, and immediately understood what he was talking about, and couldn't help but be moved in his heart.
"Hahaha, why is my brother saying this kind of thing, the situation at that time was difficult for everyone to protect, and it is normal for you to not be able to distinguish it, not to mention that I am not here now, don't take it to heart, otherwise, I will deliberately create an opportunity for you next time, but you have to move faster, don't let others take the lead." Hahaha..."Ren Wu said heartily.
"Don't mess around, this kind of thing that is related to Xìng's life can not be joked, you give me a good cultivation, don't always think about others coming to save you, I will definitely urge you to do it when I turn around!"
But just when everyone was chatting without saying a word, an exclamation suddenly sounded.
"Ah~~~~!"
You don't have to ask to know who it is, because the owner of the screaming voice is a girl, everyone looked back at the big stone on the side, and saw that Renji, who was sitting quietly on it, had bounced up, covering his chest with one hand, and seemed to be frightened, while the other hand pointed to the distance in the lower reaches of the river, and then continued to scream loudly:
"Renqi was dragged into the water by the demon beast!"
