Qin Yun sat down on the ground, his face turned crimson, and wisps of white smoke rose from his head and body.

The cold water arrows sprayed by the giant fish demon beast are extremely cold, and although the Jiuyang True Qi can be dissolved and dispersed, it must be done with all its might, and the slightest delay may cause damage to the internal organs of the meridians.

Under the urging of Jiuyang Divine Skill, the majestic true qi continued to ascend to the meridians and acupoints of the back, and the invading cold power was dispelled by refining little by little, and it took a whole stick of incense before his face returned to normal.

Although it was said that he escaped safely, Qin Yun did not have the slightest joy in his heart.

Although he found Xiaoyue Lake, there was a group of giant fish and monster beasts guarding the lake, and with his current strength, he could kill one or two heads, but it was almost impossible to kill them all.

The key is still in time, he has been away from Lingyang City for nearly three days, if he can't rush back with the ten thousand empty bluestones within five days, the fortress that has lost the protection of the Ten Lands Divine Power Great Array may fall at any time.

What to do?

Qin Yun's mind swirled with thousands of thoughts, but none of them could solve the dilemma he was currently facing.

In the lake, his ten-percent strength can only exert two or three percent at most, but the giant fish demon beast is not good at stubble, but also occupies an absolute advantage in numbers, if he rashly dives down, it is almost equivalent to death.

Crash!

At this time, the originally calm Xiaoyue Lake suddenly rose, and four or five giant fish monsters appeared on the surface of the lake, revealing their black backs and fins from time to time, and one of them suddenly jumped out of the water. Opened his mouth and spewed out a long water arrow towards Qin Yun!

On land, how could Qin Yun be hit by the other party, and a dodge easily avoided it.

The water arrow hit the rock behind it, and it immediately exploded and splashed the frost on the ground, and the cold breath made the surrounding grass and trees instantly covered with white frost.

What the fuck!

The provocative attack of the giant fish demon beast immediately angered Qin Yun, and he immediately jumped onto the rock standing on the shore of the lake, opened the Qiankun space, put away the Tianwen Sword, and took out the Sunset Bow.

Don't think that hiding in the water won't help you!

Qin Yun pulled the longbow hard. He placed a dark iron arrow on the bowstring, and instantly locked onto a giant fish monster beast that was showing off its might on the surface of the lake.

Boom!

The bowstring was abruptly released, and the black armor-piercing arrow flew forward like lightning under the powerful elastic force. The body of the arrow revealed a faint red glow, and in an instant, it flew over a distance of nearly thirty paces and hit the giant fish demon beast!

Poof!

The armor-piercing arrow containing Jiuyang's true qi broke through the thick skin of the demon beast without any condensation. The entire iron arrow completely pierced through and disappeared, and a stream of blood suddenly spurted out from the broken wound.

The giant fish monster shook suddenly, and it writhed its huge body frantically, causing countless splashes on the surface of the lake, and even let out a tooth-aching scream, obviously this arrow caused it great trauma.

The other giant fish monsters around immediately surrounded them, and just like in the lake just now, they began to frantically attack the monster beast that was hit by the arrow, desperately tearing its body and devouring flesh and blood.

This kind of cannibalism made people shudder, but Qin Yun's eyes lit up.

Without hesitation, he pulled the Sunset Bow again. He placed the second armor-piercing arrow on the bowstring and let go of his hand after aiming at the other giant fish monster.

Sou!

The huge size of the giant fish monster beast is undoubtedly an excellent target, and the distance of twenty or thirty steps can easily hit the target without deliberately aiming, and this monster beast is also hit by an arrow without exception.

Wave after wave ripples rippled on the surface of the lake, and the demon beast that was hit by the arrow spurted blood from its death. And more and more giant fish and monsters came from all directions in the lake, one after another to join in this feast of death.

The ferocious stupidity of the giant fish demon beast and the cannibalistic nature of the giant fish demon beast undoubtedly gave Qin Yun the best chance!

He stood on a rocky hill overlooking the lake, and kept shooting armor-piercing arrows at the fish, causing more blood and death.

These giant fish demon beasts were powerful beings in the water, but their skins were not able to defend against the armor-piercing arrows that Qin Yun had infused with Jiuyang True Qi. Gradually, there are more and more monster corpses floating on the surface of the lake, but there are fewer and fewer giant fish that bite and compete for their companions.

After less than a stick of incense, Qin Yun's bag of armor-piercing arrows was exhausted, and there was no longer a single active demon beast on the lake, and all of them were corpses with gray bellies.

A large area of the lake was stained red with the blood of demon beasts, and there were some broken internal organs, and there was a fishy smell in the air.

Even Qin Yun himself didn't expect that what should be the most difficult thing would be solved so easily, dozens of giant fish demon beasts were shot by him in one go, even if there were still few in the water, there was nothing left, and there was no need to be afraid anymore.

Time was pressing, and he didn't care to take a breath, and immediately put away the sunset bow and jumped into the lake again.

Dive down and dive down, this time Qin Yun dived to the bottom of the lake at a depth of 100 feet very smoothly, and no giant fish and demon beasts came to disturb him.

The water at the bottom of the lake is relatively muddy, and some dark green aquatic plants grow in the silted mud, which rise and fall with the surging undercurrent, but I did not see the agarwood recorded in the notes.

Qin Yun sank his heart and swam in another direction, slowly swimming all the way to find it.

Due to the darkness at the bottom of the lake, the search was very difficult, and in order to have more light, he even held the Tianwen Sword in his hand to stimulate sword qi, and used the light of the sword to illuminate the way forward.

After swimming forward for about a few hundred steps, Qin Yun suddenly saw black shadows appear in front of him.

The vigilance in Qin Yun's heart suddenly rose, and he immediately stopped advancing.

But those black shadows hidden at the bottom of the lake did not move at all, Qin Yun thought about it and swam over cautiously.

When he got closer, he realized that the black shadows were not demon beasts, but thick trees, which were scattered at the bottom of the lake, some of which were buried deep in the mud, and they looked very old.

Agarwood!

This should be the agarwood recorded in the notes, the agarwood that can give birth to bluestone for thousands of years!

Qin Yun was excited in his heart, he was ready to fail or even fall in the swamp before he came, but he didn't expect that by chance, he not only discovered the place where the bearded guest had come a hundred years ago, but also successfully found a large number of agarwood.

Suppressing his excitement, he began to search through the pile.

The so-called agarwood refers to the natural death of fragrant trees such as sandalwood that is 100 years old for 100 years, and the trunk sinks into the water or mud, and after thousands or even tens of thousands of years of evolution, it finally becomes a kind of wood that can exude a special aroma and is extremely heavy.

Agarwood is hard to find, the price is also very high, rich people or Taoist qi refiners like to use agarwood as a spice to light the smoker, which can play a bright and refreshing, peaceful blood effect.

I don't know how many years these agarwoods have been sleeping at the bottom of the lake, if they can be sold outside, it is a huge wealth in itself.

However, Qin Yun didn't have the slightest interest in agarwood, what he wanted was the empty bluestone contained in the heart of the wood.

According to the description of the bearded guest's notes, the bigger and thicker the agarwood, the older it is, Qin Yun searched for a while, and found a trunk that was thick enough to hug, so he took the Tianwen Sword and began to dissect the tree segment.

At the bottom of the lake, which is more than 100 feet deep, this is by no means an easy task, it is difficult to find the heart of the tree in the first place, Qin Yun has no similar experience before, he can only estimate the middle position of the trunk and excavate.

The thicker the agarwood, the longer it has been in the water, and the more solid and fine the texture is, trying to break through the trunk of the tree is tantamount to piercing through the iron stone, but fortunately, the Tianwen Sword is extremely sharp, and Qin Yun can easily cut it as long as he injects a little true qi.

But he can't cut it big, in case he hurts the empty bluestone in the heart of the tree, it's too late to regret it.

After much effort, the chosen trunk was quickly dismembered, and a soft green glow could be faintly visible from its center, striking out from the dark bottom of the lake.

Qin Yun was overjoyed in his heart, and his movements became more and more gentle and careful.

He first dug out the whole piece of wood and tore the veneer wrapped around it directly with his hands, and finally obtained a turquoise gem the size of a baby's fist.

Looking at the empty bluestone in his hand, all the joy and expectation just now disappeared, because this piece of empty bluestone was obviously not comparable to the one in the Shenwei Great Array of the Ten Lands Underground of Huilongguan, both in terms of size and color.

In other words, it is definitely not a bluestone that has been empty for thousands of years, at most it is only a thousand or thousands of years, and it cannot meet the needs of the Shenwei Great Array.

Of course, the empty bluestone itself is also a rare treasure, and Qin Yun still included it in the Qiankun space.

Undeterred, he continued his search, as there were more agarwood trees ahead.

Then looking for about a few dozen trees, Qin Yun saw a long black shadow appear in the silt at the bottom of the lake in front of him, like a huge agarwood buried in it, and he immediately accelerated and swam over.

Judging from the exposed parts, this agarwood is likely to greatly exceed the one that was originally dug up by him, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for two or three people to hug it.

With a hint of surprise, Qin Yun stretched out his arm and stabbed the Tianwen Sword towards Mu Duan.

He also has some experience now, and he can tell the age from the hardness of the agarwood, as long as the agarwood is strong enough, then it is worth the time and effort to dig it out.

Ding! Ding!

When the tip of the sword had just pierced the skin of the agarwood, the Heavenly Talisman hanging from his waist suddenly vibrated violently.

At risk?

Qin Yun was stunned for a moment, and the long sword in his hand was stunned.

The next moment, the bottom of the lake suddenly shook, the silt was rolling and the turbid water was churning, and the black shadow that Qin Yun thought was agarwood arched high from under the silt, violently twisting and stirring up countless currents in the water.

Hiss!

A low roar shook the body of water, and Qin Yun's eyes couldn't help but widen - what appeared in front of him was a huge black-scaled python!rs
