Chapter 172: Fierce Battle in the Deep Sea
Chapter 172: Deep Sea Jī Battle
Xu Jin didn't have a tight water buckle like Tu Yaoqin, and he couldn't be shirtless, so he had to jump into the water with his clothes. 【Reading.com】
In his previous life, as an assassin, Xu Jin knew how to swim. But it's just a meeting, and searching for spiritual grass in the vast sea like this is not enough to see. And Xu Jin hasn't been in the water for a long time. As soon as he arrived in the water, Xu Jin only felt that his eyes were dark, and he was busy reciting Professor Tu Yaoqin's mantra, but in a moment, his eyes brightened up little by little, and his breathing was smooth, and no seawater poured into his mouth.
Xu Jin was overjoyed, it seemed that this trick really worked.
After adapting to the environment in the water a little, Xu Jin immediately released his divine thoughts. Divine Thoughts were greatly restricted in the water, and could only be released forty or fifty zhang away, but as far as the eye could see, it was only three or four zhang away.
The underwater world is breathtaking.
The water on the shore is not deep, the sunlight can shine directly into the water, and as far as the eye can see, there are white sandy beaches, and all kinds of small fish swim around Xu Jin in groups. There are no fishermen in Tianlong Sea, and small fish are not afraid of people at all.
Xu Jin didn't rush to find Tu Yaoqin, and took out the guide plate with his backhand.
The guide wheel is truly wonderful, and it does not hinder its use in the water. The surroundings were calm, and the low-level demon beasts that had been active nearby before were gone, and Xu sensed the spiritual pressure of Xu Jin and the others, and hurriedly fled for their lives.
Sure that there was no danger, Xu Jin was swimming towards the deep water. While swimming in the water, he experimented with the mantra taught to him by Tu Yaoqin, but in a moment, Xu Jin initially mastered the method of movement in the water, and the nine secret tricks in his body flowed, and he could even perform the art of resisting the wind in the water. Natural speed is not at all comparable to being in the air. But compared to the small fish around him, Xu Jin's speed is much faster.
As soon as you reach the deep water, the sunlight immediately dims, and you can only see a foot or two away.
As soon as the Nine Shadows were running, the spiritual pressure moved, and the fish in the sea were frightened and avoided them one after another.
Xu Jin continued to move forward, and the deeper he went into the water, the more limited the power of his divine thoughts became, and the pressure he felt all over his body also increased greatly, and the speed of his progress slowed down. Xu Jin estimated that it was now more than 100 zhang underwater.
It seems that although he is practicing the water genus xìng exercises, and there are secrets taught by Tu Yaoqin, there are restrictions on activities in the water. Further down, I'm afraid it's even more difficult to move.
Fortunately, at this time, Xu Jin's divine thoughts had already sensed Tu Yaoqin's spiritual power, which was not far ahead.
Xu Jin hurriedly sped up and swam over.
Tu Yaoqin was standing next to a reef at the bottom of the sea, as if she was contemplating something. The moon-white sè water on her body still shone with a faint halo in the deep sea. The slender body is dazzlingly beautiful under the halo of light.
Xu Jin slowly approached her side.
Tu Yaoqin turned her head to glance at him, and then looked intently at the reef.
Xu Jin followed her eyes and saw that on the reef, there were two small white huā, like an umbrella, constantly rising and falling in the seawater, white and transparent, emitting a hazy luster, which was very similar to the jellyfish in the sea.
"This is jellyfish. ”
Tu Yaoqin said, and the voice clearly came into Xu Jin's ears.
Xu Jin nodded.
Although this thing looked like a living thing, the Jumang Sacred Tree in Xu Jin's body had already sensed it. This was unexpected by Xu Jin, who did not expect that he would also have a sense of the grass and tree spirits in the deep sea, and the Jumang Sacred Tree.
Born a holy relic, it is really extraordinary.
"Let's pick it then."
Xu Jin said.
"Hmm. ”
Tu Yaoqin was about to make a move, Xu Jin suddenly felt a slight spiritual pressure, and saw two huge jellyfish suddenly rush out of the cave at the bottom of the reef. Like jellyfish, the whole body is white and transparent, but it is dozens of hundreds of times larger, and the body is all stretched, several feet.
Xu Jin was slightly startled, and then calmed down. Although these two giant jellyfish have huge bodies and the spiritual pressure on their bodies, they are only equivalent to third-order demon beasts. Such low-level demon beasts, monks usually disdain to hunt them. Only in the offshore waters, some monks brought their disciples in the Qi cultivation period to practice, and they would take these low-level demon beasts as the objects of training.
"This is the demon beast that guards the jellyfish grass, don't hurt their lives. ”
Tu Yaoqin said in a low voice.
Xu Jin bowed his head slightly, raised his right wrist, and the cold shadow arrow shot out, and the two giant jellyfish were frozen into ice sculptures in an instant before they could come to their senses. Xu Jin only used three points of strength, and soon after, the ice melted, and the two jellyfish would be free.
Tu Yaoqin took out two jade boxes from the storage bracelet, picked the two jellyfish grasses, put them in the jade boxes, turned around and swam in the other direction, Xu Jin followed closely by the side.
Although the guide disc did not show any danger. However, in the deep sea, the sensing range of the guide disk is also greatly weakened, and it can only detect one or two hundred zhang away. High-level demon beasts move extremely fast at the bottom of the sea, far beyond their match. The distance of one or two hundred zhang is instantaneous, and there is not much difference from face-to-face.
Naturally, it is better to be careful.
Tu Yaoqin's slender twin tuǐ swayed gently in the water, like a mermaid, very fast.
Xu Jin turned his head away and didn't look at her.
Although he is a cultivator, he is also a young man, and he has only been reborn in the yang world for more than 20 years, just when his blood is strong. Walking side by side with a young woman who is extremely beautiful in the depths of the sea, her eyes are full of Tu Yaoqin's graceful figure, and it is difficult to do it if you want to stop your heart.
After swimming for a while, Xu Jin suddenly turned north.
Tu Yaoqin was slightly surprised, but she still followed, but she didn't know what Xu Jin had discovered.
Swimming past a reef, it was dark in front of you, but it was a deep underwater basin.
In the center of the basin, a large area of dense seagrass grows very luxuriantly, but among the seagrass, there is a red light flashing, look closely, a strange-looking red huā blooms in the seaweed, the size of a palm, like seven tentacles, very beautiful.
"This is the seven-star huā......" Tu Yaoqin said, her voice moving slightly: "This seven-star huā is already mature, at least two hundred years old, how did you sense it?"
Xu Jin said: "I don't know, I just feel that there is something abnormal here." ”
The secret of the Jumang Sacred Tree is still not easy for people to know.
Tu Yaoqin turned her head to look at him.
This is already more than a hundred zhang deep in the sea, as far as the eye can see, less than a zhang, and beyond a zhang, it is a blur. The two were very close, and Tu Yaoqin turned her head and almost got together with Xu Jin's head.
Xu Jin hurriedly turned his head, but he never saw Tu Yaoqin in the water smiling, and seemed to think that Xu Jin's movements were very interesting.
"In the vicinity of this mature seven-star huā, there must be a high-level demon beast guarding it, so you have to be careful. At the bottom of the sea, our supernatural powers are not easy to use. ”
After Tu Yaoqin smiled, she reminded again.
The white light flashed under Xu Jin's feet, the flying cloud boots appeared, the red light flashed in his right hand, and the yīn Luo blade was also held in his hand, and with another stretch of his left hand, the ghost shield turned into a two-foot size, blocking in front of Xiōng. Since supernatural powers are not easy to use, there is only hand-to-hand combat. The Cloud Boots are made from the flesh wings of the Flying Fish Beast, and they should also be useful underwater.
Xu Jin was fully armed and said, "You go and pick, I'll deal with the demon beasts."
"Good"
Tu Yaoqin did not hesitate, her body swung slightly, and rushed towards the center of the basin very quickly.
At this moment, the guide wheel suddenly vibrated violently. In fact, there was no need for a guide disk to warn, Xu Jin's divine mind had already sensed a powerful spiritual pressure movement, and it was rushing towards the basin extremely quickly.
This demon beast has at least a fifth-order cultivation.
If it was above the sea, the fifth-order demon beast was naturally not in Xu Jin's eyes. But it's at the bottom of the sea, that's another story.
In the blink of an eye, two huge tentacles cut through the sea water and smashed towards Tu Yaoqin. Two other equally huge tentacles swept towards Xu Jin. But it turned out to be a giant octopus, with eight tentacles as long as more than ten feet, as thick as a water tank. Two basin-sized eyes glittered with a green glow in the swarthy water.
"Evil Barrier"
Xu Jin snorted, his body flashed, and the red sè sword skyrocketed, and he snorted, like a cracked silk. A huge tentacle that swept towards Xu Jin was instantly cut in two.
The octopus shuddered in pain, and the remaining three tentacles retracted very quickly.
At this time, Tu Yaoqin had already picked the seven-star huā.
The octopus was furious, its huge body shook violently, and a stream of pitch-black venom spewed out, and the entire sea water suddenly became pitch black and smelly.
"Sealed"
Xu Jin snorted lightly, and the Cold Shadow Arrow was released, and suddenly an incomparably hard wall of Xuan Ice was erected in front of him, instantly freezing the entire pitch-black sea water several feet away.
Tu Yaoqin quickly retreated to his side, and with a shake of her right hand, a snowy short blade emerged, about one foot and two inches long, slender and sharp, a bit similar to a water-splitting stinger.
With a loud bang, the ice wall suddenly exploded, and seven huge tentacles swept in.
In the sea, the brute strength of demon beasts is truly amazing.
"Disease"
Tu Yaoqin screamed lightly, and the water thorn shook, and more than ten cold rays suddenly radiated, shooting towards the octopus like lightning.
"Hurry up and lead it to the surface. ”
As soon as Tu Yaoqin struck, he said, turned around and left.
"Not necessarily"
Xu Jin said indifferently.
Before Tu Yaoqin could say anything, the sword in front of him was dazzling, and Xu Jin sent out seven or eight "Soul Breaking Slashes" in one breath, and in an instant, he slashed at the seven tentacles of the octopus. The demon beast's body is strong, and the "Soul Breaking Slash" can't cut off the tentacles, but it also makes it painful, and it hurriedly takes the tentacles back, opens its big mouth, and spews out a stream of pitch-black venom.
The ghost shield in Xu Jin's hand was unleashed, even if it was in the deep sea, there was a faint sound of ghost crying.
Tu Yaoqin couldn't help but widen her eyes when she saw Xu Jin rushing straight forward with the venom, and there was a look of surprise and anxiety on her face.
Doesn't this person know how powerful demon beasts are in the sea?
I saw that the black light in front of Xu Jin was everywhere, and as soon as the venom touched this black light, it immediately rolled back, and he couldn't get close. Xu Jin's figure quickly disappeared into the sea water in front of him, and he was out of sight.
The next moment, the sea suddenly tumbled violently, as if boiling, and after a while, the deep sea became silent again.
