Chapter 789: Bone-Transforming Water
Chapter 789: Bone-Transforming Water
Even if it's only at the initial seventh rank, it's still a genuine seventh-rank demon beast.
Although the Crimson-Tailed Flood Dragon is neither a royal family of demon beasts nor listed among the royal families of demon beasts, its strength is still not to be underestimated. In addition, this place is considered its territory, giving it a home-field advantage.
The three members of the Yu family were unable to break through after a long siege.
However, it's clear that the Crimson-Tailed Dragon is gradually losing ground, and it's only a matter of time before it's defeated.
Clearly realizing that it was no match for its opponent, the Crimson-Tailed Dragon began to retreat.
roar~
After a furious roar, the dragon's tail, several meters long, swept across, temporarily forcing Yu Lian and the other two to retreat.
With its gaping maw wide open, its target clear, it intended to swallow the Grade 8 Dragon Scale Lotus whole. To Zhao Mu and the others, this was merely a rare and precious natural treasure.
But for the Crimson-tailed Dragon, this was its hope for a transformation of its bloodline.
"Damn humans."
However, just as it pounced on the Dragon Scale Lotus, a white figure descended from the sky, and Yu Ying stood on the Dragon Scale Lotus with her sword in hand.
The sword's edge shot straight towards the Crimson-tailed Dragon.
It was taken aback, never expecting that this woman's strength was even more terrifying than the three people from before combined.
"It seems that Yu Ying is fully capable of killing a person in the early stage of the Four Extremes Realm, and may even have a chance to touch the middle stage of the Four Extremes Realm."
Zhao Mu watched from the sidelines and witnessed firsthand the strength of this Fairy Yu. She was terrifying, at least much stronger than him.
If it were him, there would be no way he could have so cleanly and decisively forced back a seventh-tier red-tailed dragon, or even made the beast feel fear.
"roar~"
Seeing that it could do nothing to the human woman, the red-tailed dragon could only turn around and flee in frustration. However, to its surprise, several more annoying humans appeared and blocked all its escape routes.
Boom boom boom~
Half an hour later, the Crimson-tailed Flood Dragon, which had just entered the seventh rank, was completely dismembered, except for the useless flesh.
Zhao Mu collected a basin of dragon blood, which would be perfect as the main ingredient for refining the Dragon Blood Pill.
Dragon Blood Pill is a body-tempering pill recorded in the Alchemy Manual. Its body-tempering effect varies depending on the quality of the pill. The blood of a seventh-order Crimson-tailed Flood Dragon might bring him some benefits.
"Brother Zhao, have you noticed any movements by the Yin family?"
After carefully putting away the Dragon Scale Lotus, Yu Ying landed beside Zhao Mu.
"No."
Zhao Mu shook his head and said, "Perhaps I guessed wrong, or perhaps I'm just not capable enough to discover the existence of the Yin family."
This is not modesty, it is the truth.
He does have a powerful soul, and according to my mother, someone like him has never appeared in the Yin family before.
But don't forget, he has never been involved in soul cultivation, and his development and utilization of the soul are almost zero. The Yin family, on the other hand, is a family that specializes in soul cultivation, with endless methods. It's not surprising that he couldn't detect them.
"We still need to leave this foggy area as soon as possible."
The harvest of Dragon Scale Lotus did not bring Yu Ying any joy; she remained worried.
"Ok!"
Zhao Mu nodded in deep agreement.
After this minor incident, the group continued their journey, encountering five more dangers along the way, and the situation was not good, resulting in the loss of two more people.
Everyone fell silent. Losing three people in such a short time while following the young lady was a great disgrace to them.
"We still haven't found anyone from the Yin family."
Yu Ying and Zhao Mu were fine, but the sword attendants accompanying them began to get restless, wishing they could immediately have a fight with the Yin family members hiding in the shadows.
"Something's not right."
As Zhao Mu walked to a large tree, he suddenly stopped.
"really."
Yu Ying nodded in deep agreement and said, "The fog around us has not only not weakened, but it seems to be getting thicker. We may have gone the wrong way and are heading towards the core instead of outwards."
"Does the Yu family have absolutely no record of this mist?"
Zhao Mu is also a bit lost now, because he can't seem to break free from his current situation, which has made him somewhat insecure.
"The fog in the tempering swamp is completely random, and it is impossible to deduce your location based on the experience of your predecessors. However, it is easier to distinguish if you encounter poisonous fog."
This kind of mesmerizing fog appears randomly, but poisonous fog is different. To be precise, it should be called poisonous miasma. Poisonous miasma is formed by special environments and is generally fixed in a certain area. When encountering poisonous miasma, the experience of predecessors can come in handy.
"Poisonous miasma?"
Zhao Mu murmured to himself, wondering if he could find any poisonous miasma.
Unfortunately, they still had no clue. However, when they expanded the search area, they unexpectedly discovered something.
"This is....."
"what happened?"
Seeing Zhao Mu's sudden change in expression, Yu Ying subconsciously asked a question.
"Purple Source Crocodiles, many Purple Source Crocodiles are approaching us from all directions, there must be at least a hundred of them, and there are probably at least three of them that are at the seventh level of Light."
"what!"
Yu Ying frowned, but the two sword attendants exclaimed in surprise.
Although the Purple Source Crocodile, like the Crimson Tail Flood Dragon, is a common demon beast, the latter is solitary while the Purple Source Crocodile is gregarious, appearing in large groups. Moreover, like the Ghost Wolf Fish encountered at the beginning, it possesses a combined attack technique.
even......
Because it lives in the tempering swamp, it is highly poisonous.
Given the same number, it is far more dangerous than the ghost wolf fish.
"Stay close, everyone! Charge out!"
Yu Ying gave the order decisively, and then said to Zhao Mu, "Brother Zhao, thank you for showing us the way!"
"it is good!"
Zhao Mu, without wasting any words about the current situation, focused intently on finding the best direction to break through. After a moment, he came to a conclusion and said to Yu Ying, "Go southeast. There is a highland there where the number of Purple Source Crocodiles is significantly lower."
"go!"
The Yu family trusted Zhao Mu completely and immediately followed.
During this period, many dangerous situations were mitigated by Zhao Mu's early warnings. Otherwise, the losses would not have been as simple as losing three people; they would have been at least doubled.
“In this swamp, the Purple Source Crocodile is faster than us, so someone has to cover our retreat.”
"Young Miss, let me do it."
"Young Miss, I'll go with Qingfeng."
"Young Miss, I'll stay too."
"..."
Everyone volunteered to cover the rear, but Zhao Mu said bluntly, "Those who cover the rear will surely die. We should all move together."
"Did you find something?"
Yu Ying communicated telepathically with Zhao Mu.
Under normal circumstances, having a few people cover their retreat would be the best option, otherwise, there is a good chance they would be wiped out. But Zhao Mu refused.
"I found two rats about three miles to the northeast."
"You want to stay and take the risk?"
“Since this Purple Source Crocodile was deliberately lured here, the escape route we have chosen must be even more dangerous. If we want to get out of trouble completely, we can only fight. I have a way to drag the person in the shadows down with me.”
"you......"
Just as Yu Ying hesitated, Zhao Mu did his best to investigate the previously confirmed breakout direction, and what he found startled him.
Gudu Gudu~
It was a strange body of water, bubbling and bubbling.
"That's... bone-dissolving water!"
