Rocks pierced through the sky, and stormy waves crashed onto the shore.
Under the setting sun, a giant thing jumped up from the water, facing Xu Yue's fist, and wanted to swallow him whole.
It is a pity that this thing failed to see the battle at Yidi Mountain, otherwise, it would not have dared to attack Xu Yue no matter what.
boom!
The two sides collided, the lake churned, and the water monster screamed. The scales on its forehead were suddenly dented, blood splashed, and the huge figure was knocked back into the water, struggling violently.
On the contrary, Xu Yue's figure also took a step back in the air, feeling a little surprised.
"Huh? It's still the spirit-splitting realm!"
Xu Yue looked at the huge black shadow below that had begun to flee hastily. After thinking for a while, he gently raised his right hand, and his fist exuded a holy light.
"If you run again, my punch may kill you." Xu Yue threatened.
But the monster in the water never listened to him. As its giant tail swung, it swam desperately to the bottom of the lake.
Seeing this, Xu Yue stopped writing. After shaking his head, he punched out.
"[Heaven's Fist] is being triggered. The host blasts out the sacred fist and causes huge damage to dark enemies."
boom!
The huge beam of light shot into the lake, and the water gave way wherever it passed. In the end, it directly formed a vacuum pipe, which was a wonderful sight.
Heaven's Fist was extremely fast and caught up with the water monster in the blink of an eye, but just passed it by. The huge energy continued to hit the bottom of the lake, creating a huge crater like a meteorite.
Finally, seeing this scene, the water monster could no longer withstand Xu Yue's pressure. It turned around, splashing water and bubbles, and kept begging for mercy.
At the same time, a series of intermittent divine thoughts entered Xu Yue's mind.
"Master... don't... kill..."
This is the case with monsters. Except for specific races, most of them are far inferior to humans in terms of spiritual consciousness and soul power. As long as their cultivation level is not at the level of god transformation, it is difficult to communicate directly with people.
It is not easy for this water monster in the Spiritual Realm to send out such spiritual thoughts.
"snort."
Seeing this, Xu Yue snorted coldly, the light on his fist slowly dimmed, and he withdrew his magical power.
"Come up."
Xu Yue curled his legs and sat cross-legged in the air, holding his chin and looking at the lake.
With a puff, the water monster surfaced again with the hollow on its forehead, and blood continued to seep from the wound, dyeing the lake water red.
But this time, the way it looked at Xu Yue was completely different. It no longer had the previous ferocity and greed, but only awe and fear.
"Why did you attack me?" Xu Yue looked at this ugly guy and asked.
"Hungry...territory..." The water monster sent spiritual thoughts intermittently.
"Are you a native monster in this secret realm, or do you come from the outside world?" Xu Yue asked again.
"No...Nanling...Lake..."
Hearing this, Xu Yue frowned.
If this continues, I'm afraid it will be dark before this guy can even say a complete sentence, let alone find out any valuable information.
So, Xu Yue thought for a while, and his hands lit up with a pale white soul light.
"Spare your life...don't kill..."
The water monster below suddenly became anxious. He wanted to turn around and get into the lake, but he was also afraid of being killed by Xu Yue on the spot.
"Don't be afraid, I would have killed you long ago."
Xu Yue smiled, and then, under the water monster's horrifying gaze, he gently placed his hand on its head.
"[Double Hands: Bright Soul Technique] is being triggered. The host can read, delete memory, and even rewrite cognition."
With a swish sound, the surrounding environment changed, and Xu Yue seemed to sink into a dark water. There were only bubbling bubbles everywhere and no light.
This should be the spiritual space of the water monster.
"Master, please spare my life!"
A frightened voice suddenly came from the front. Xu Yue looked and saw a half-human-sized strange fish kowtowing to him.
"I finally spoke fluently this time."
Xu Yue nodded, then glanced at this desolate spiritual space, and asked slowly: "Tell me, where did you come from, and what kind of place is this."
"Master, spare your life! I will definitely recruit you!"
The strange fish seemed to be completely frightened. After thinking for a while, he told everything he knew.
It was originally a water beast from a sacred lake in Nanling. When it was young, it accidentally ate a spiritual grass and began to practice spiritual wisdom. Now, it has been a hundred years and its realm has reached the early stage of the spiritual realm.
However, some time ago, a monk from Yidi Mountain suddenly descended from the sky, fished it out of the divine lake, and said that it would be given some kind of opportunity.
Then, it was thrown into the big lake in this secret place. It has been several months now.
Until just now, Xu Yue fell into the lake. Due to lack of spiritual power and weak breath, the strange fish didn't care at first, thinking it was something like a stone.
But as Xu Yue recovered from his injuries and his aura became stronger and stronger, the strange fish reacted and swam out from the bottom of the lake, trying to devour and refine it.
"Master, the little beast had evil thoughts for a moment, please forgive me, Master!" The strange fish kept admiring.
"snort."
Xu Yue glanced at it and didn't say much. After thinking about it, he asked, "Have you ever met anyone else in this place for so long?"
"No! Although the spiritual energy here is abundant and the cultivation is much faster than before, the surroundings are desolate and uninhabited. It is like a dead place." The strange fish said truthfully.
Xu Yue nodded. In this case, the secret trial has only started for one day. The trialists should still be scattered everywhere and have not found it here.
"Did the people from Yidi Mountain say anything when they left you here? What is the so-called opportunity?" Xu Yue asked again.
"Lord Dishan just said, let me practice here with peace of mind. If I am disturbed by Dishan disciples, there is no need to be polite... As for the opportunity, it is a small grass hidden at the bottom of the lake. It is very mysterious and of high grade, but ...But I can't pick it at all. The grass is shrouded in mysterious power and I can't get close. I can only swim around it and absorb the essence of the spiritual power emitted by the grass." The strange fish's tone was also a little aggrieved.
"Well……"
Xu Yue muttered, secretly thinking that Yidi Mountain was not a thing, just a trick to deceive the stupid monster, and then asked: "How big is this area? What's so special about other places?"
"Master, the little demon has been fond of water since he was a child. Although he has been able to survive dehydration at this level, he has not succeeded in transforming. He will have many inconveniences after leaving the water. In addition, there must be other demonic beasts living nearby. If you encounter one, There must be a fierce fight, so I didn't leave this lake." The water monster answered quickly and did not dare to neglect.
"That's it."
Xu Yue nodded, then stopped talking, frowned, and was silent in thought.
Seeing this, the strange fish also calmed down. It looked at Xu Yue with its fish-like eyes, not knowing what it was thinking.
Until a certain moment, a fierce light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the strange fish, and its consciousness returned to the physical body. It bit Xu Yue, who was still using the Bright Soul Technique above its forehead!
In its opinion, the opponent is distracted, and since the distance is so close, it will surely succeed with one strike!
"Roar!"
The orangutan wind came, making people sick, and the strange fish was excited, thinking that it was about to enjoy a delicious meal.
"Why bother."
However, a mocking chuckle made it feel like falling into hell.
"A demon is a demon. Just like the one named Zong, he has a violent temperament, is capricious, and cannot be trusted."
Xu Yue chuckled and shook his head, then pointed at the strange fish with one finger.
"big……"
boom!
This time, Xu Yue didn't give it any chance.
The blood exploded and was mixed with fish meat, but it couldn't touch Xu Yue at all.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing the water monster, victory point +1, and cultivation back to normal."
