Prologue
"Poof".
An emaciated figure leaped into the river, making a splash.
The owner of the figure seemed to be a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, dressed in gorgeous clothes, but half of his body was stained with blood, and as soon as he entered the water, he swam his legs back and down the river to the bottom of the river.
Woohoo......
Arrows shot from behind with a fatal sound, stabbing diagonally into the water.
The sharp arrows chased after the boy quickly, cutting wounds on his cheeks, arms, thighs, etc., and the blood instantly stained the surrounding water, but fortunately it did not hit the vital point.
The young man clenched his teeth, used his hands and feet together, tried his best to squeeze the last bit of strength of himself, and desperately dived towards the bottom of the river.
The nearby water suddenly became turbulent, and a strong undercurrent swept around his body, instantly rushing it several feet away.
The boy was not surprised and rejoiced, and swam forward quickly with the undercurrent.
The rain of arrows in the rear continued to pursue, but when they arrived here, they were overwhelmed and dispersed under the impact of the undercurrent, and they could no longer pose a threat to it.
The young man in Chinese clothes secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his hands and feet did not relax, and he quickly dived to the bottom of the river and continued to fight forward.
Only the farther he escapes, the more likely he is to escape.
In the blink of an eye, he walked forward with half a stick of incense under the water, and there was no movement behind him.
It's just that after staying underwater for so long, his breath is almost to the limit, there seems to be a muffled thunder in his chest, his mind is swollen, and he is about to risk surfacing for breath.
However, the surrounding undercurrent suddenly became several times stronger, and a loud roaring sound could be heard under the water, and the boy couldn't stabilize his body at all, and was directly swept away.
The sound of the rushing river in front of it was even louder, like a water dragon circling, forming an undercurrent whirlpool of tens of zhang in size.
Many rocks with intertwined canine teeth towered among them, like the tusks of a giant beast, tearing apart and engulfing everything.
The young man in Chinese clothes was shocked, although his water nature was good, but now he was seriously injured and his breath was about to run out, and he didn't have much strength, if he was caught in such a huge undercurrent whirlpool, he would definitely die.
Panicked, he hurriedly plunged his hands into the dirt below, trying to grasp something to steady his form, and his right hand touched something hard, what seemed to be a reef.
The young man's ten fingers slammed into force, and the figure that was carried by the torrent stopped slightly.
However, the object in his hand was not solid, and before he could fully stabilize it, it fell off from the mud at the bottom of the river, and his whole body was swept away by the undercurrent whirlpool, and he slammed into a black reef with a "bang".
The boy couldn't hold on any longer, and a mouthful of blood mixed with large bubbles spurted out at once, and blood gushed out from multiple arrow wounds all over his body.
At this moment, he only felt that the bones in his whole body seemed to be scattered, his mind became more and more dizzy, and his breath had been discharged, and he had no power to resist, and he was about to be completely engulfed by a huge whirlpool.
A cloud of blue light suddenly lit up from his right hand, illuminating the seabed within a few zhang radiation, and the originally turbulent undercurrent vortex suddenly subsided and disappeared silently.
Everything around them also became silent at this moment.
The young man in Chinese clothes faintly felt as if there was a cool sense injected into his head, his spirit was lifted, and the feeling of being depressed was also relieved by most, and he suddenly looked at his right hand in surprise.
Faintly, the glowing thing was what had just been scooped up, like a bowl-sized quaint cyan incense burner.
And the blood flowing from the wound on his right hand was like a thread around the incense burner, and quickly penetrated into it.
The boy was about to take a closer look when the blue light on the incense burner suddenly burst out.
His mind felt like it had been hit hard, much stronger than when he had just hit the reef, and at this moment, strange images began to churn in his mind.
The sky was torn apart, and the earth was devastated......
Under the blood-colored sun, the west wind set off thousands of miles of wild sand, and a behemoth covered with spikes and claws, like a snake but not a snake, writhed its body, its body turned up and down, and a large area of lightning gathered around it......
A huge figure half-naked, covered with strange tattoos, was tied to the cliff face that reached into the sky, his eyes were closed, and two bloody tears had dried up......
The stars shattered in an instant, and the moon dimmed, leaving only endless darkness in the heavens and the earth......
These images flashed through the boy's mind, as if they had not left the slightest trace.
Before any thought could arise in the boy's heart, he instantly lost consciousness.
The cyan incense burner turned into a green shadow, blending into his right arm, turning into a light cyan mark......
