Chapter 66: Crocodile Sitting in Water, Disaster Comes from Heaven (1)
The person responsible for arranging specific matters was Li Xuangang's second uncle, Li Qingyang.
The other three tribesmen arranged to act together with Li Xuangang are Li Xuantian, Li Xuankun, and Li Xuanyu, who is the twelfth in the Xuan generation.
Five days later, the four of them received the breath-holding charm from their second uncle Li Qingyang, and then chose a direction to implement the plan of their seventh uncle Li Changzhi.
Four black figures rose and fell in the dense forest in the mountains, disappearing from Li Qingyang's field of vision in an instant.
At this moment, except for the twenty or so tribesmen who stayed at the Lingshan stronghold for defense, the rest of the Li monks were sent out by Li Changzhi.
After Li Qingyang watched the last group of tribesmen disappear in the dense forest, he turned around and walked up Lingshan Mountain to meet Li Qingjing.
After bidding farewell to their seventh uncle Li Changzhi, Li Qingyang and Li Qingjing also left the Lingshan stronghold, preparing to explore the locations of other third-level monsters in this area.
After Li Changzhi told the more than 20 tribesmen who stayed behind to pay attention, he turned into a ray of light and flew deeper into the Hengduan Mountains.
...
As Li Xuangang hurried on, he asked Li Xuankun next to him:
"Xuankun, how are your injuries?"
Li Xuankun subconsciously looked down at his abdomen, and then replied:
"It's no longer a problem."
After hearing the conversation between the two, Li Xuantian looked back and said:
"This operation is dangerous, please be careful."
Li Xuangang and the other three nodded to express their understanding.
Li Xuangang and his party of four, except for Li Xuankun who is at the sixth level of Qi refining, the other three are already in the later stages of Qi refining.
Among them, the second brother Li Xuantian is a monk at the ninth level of Qi refining, while Li Xuangang is at the eighth level. As for the youngest, Li Xuanyu, he is also at the seventh level.
After the four of them drove in silence for a while, at the signal of their second brother Li Xuantian, the four of them stopped at the edge of a cliff.
This cliff is not high, only about forty feet.
Li Xuantian asked the three of them to step back for a while, and then said:
"There is a pool under this cliff. I just noticed a subtle spiritual power fluctuation in it, but the spiritual power fluctuation disappeared as soon as I wanted to investigate it more carefully. There was no movement."
Li Xuangang, Li Xuankun, and Li Xuanyu all held their breath and listened carefully to Li Xuantian's story.
After Li Xuantian finished speaking, Li Xuanyu, who ranked twelfth, asked:
"I wonder what second brother is going to do?"
Li Xuantian raised his head and looked around, then said:
"Although I don't know if there is anything strange in the pool below, we still need to take necessary precautions. In this way... we each find some vines, and then go down to the bottom of the cliff first and observe it in detail.
After this pool, we will decide what to do."
The other three people all agreed with Li Xuantian's approach, so the four of them then found a few vines that were long enough from the surroundings, connected them together, and then followed these vines down to the bottom of the cliff.
At this time, they were less than twenty feet away from the pool in question that Li Xuantian mentioned.
After Li Xuangang and the others waited for the last Li Xuanyu to come down, the four of them used breath-condensing spells to suppress the breath to the lowest level.
Li Xuantian took the three of them and dived ten feet forward, then stopped in a sunken earth pit to cover the four of them.
Then, the four of them stood up and carefully used their spiritual senses to sense the pool not far away.
As expected by Li Xuantian, Li Xuangang also noticed the subtle fluctuation of spiritual energy this time.
After confirming that there was indeed something strange in the pool, Li Xuangang glanced at his second brother Li Xuantian again. He thought that his physical strength was already very strong, but he didn't expect that his spiritual consciousness was also so strong.
Although the second brother Li Xuantian is only a small level higher than him, Li Xuangang cannot guarantee that when he reaches the ninth level of Qi refining, he will be able to sense the subtle spiritual energy in a small pool fifty feet away from the cliff.
fluctuation.
Li Xuangang retracted his head, and then said to Li Xuankun and Li Xuanyu:
"Second brother's perception is correct. There is indeed something wrong with this pool."
Hearing this, Li Xuankun and Li Xuanyu both nodded silently.
After Li Xuantian also retracted his head, he said to the three of them:
"Now we have determined that there is a problem with this pool, but we don't know the specific conditions inside. We need to find a way to investigate. What do you think we should do?"
Seeing Li Xuantian asking, Li Xuangang frowned and thought for a while.
Just when he proposed to let his corpse refining go to explore the situation, Li Xuanyu spoke.
He said tentatively:
"Second brother, why don't you let me give it a try?"
Hearing Li Xuanyu speak, Li Xuantian asked with a trace of doubt:
"I wonder what you can do, Xuanyu?"
Li Xuanyu's mouth curved slightly, and then he spoke to the three elder brothers:
"A few years ago, Xuan Yu was lucky enough to become a talisman maker. Among the talisman skills I learned, there was a talisman called spiritual energy transformation. Although this talisman cannot be used for attack or defense,
But for this situation, it’s the perfect way to investigate.”
Since Li Xuangang has been busy in the past few years, he had heard that his twelfth brother Li Xuanyu had become a talisman maker, but he did not think of it for a while.
At this time, Li Xuanyu reminded him, and he instantly remembered the identity of the other party's talisman maker.
After receiving Li Xuanyu's explanation, Li Xuantian, Li Xuangang, and Li Xuankun all felt that there was no problem, so Li Xuantian said:
"In that case, then Xuan Yu, just give it a try. If something unexpected happens, we will retreat as soon as possible."
Afterwards, Li Xuanyu signaled to the other three people and then moved his body outward.
Then he took out a pure white talisman from the storage bag on his waist, with some blood-red patterns on it.
After Li Xuanyu took out this talisman, he mobilized the spiritual power in his body to activate it.
Then, the talisman in Li Xuanyu's hand suddenly flew into the air not far ahead. After a sudden change, a wolf-shaped monster appeared out of thin air.
This was the first time Li Xuangang saw this kind of talisman, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Seeing that Li Xuanyu had already started taking action, Li Xuangang and the others also focused their spiritual consciousness on the wolf-shaped monster that Li Xuanyu had transformed into using the talisman.
When Li Xuanyu saw that his talisman had successfully transformed, he did not dare to be careless and concentrated on controlling this wolf-shaped monster.
This talisman technique was accidentally seen by Li Xuanyu in the family library. Although this talisman of spiritual energy can transform into a realistic monster form, it can only be a pretense, and it needs to be performed by the inspirer.
It takes control to make it move.
Li Xuanyu controlled this "demon wolf-type beast" bit by bit to get closer to the pool.
The distance of more than ten feet does not last long, it takes about half a stick of incense.
The wolf-shaped monster controlled by Li Xuanyu walked to the edge of the pool.
This "wolf-shaped monster" walked around the pool for several times, but there was no movement in the pool.
Just when Li Xuangang and the others were wondering, the wolf-shaped monster controlled by Li Xuanyu made a gesture to lower its head and drink water in the pool.
The moment the wolf-shaped monster lowered its head, a huge figure suddenly emerged from the pool. In an instant, the wolf-shaped monster controlled by Li Xuanyu disappeared.
Because the figure's attack speed was too fast, it disappeared in the blink of an eye. In the entire pool, only the water splashing to the shore and the ripples that had not dissipated proved that some monster had indeed appeared just now.
However, because Li Xuantian and others were all focused on the situation at the pool, no matter how fast the figure was, they still captured the breath and figure.
The four of them lowered their heads and lay on the slope extending out of the pit. After a moment of silence, Li Xuangang said:
"It turns out to be a second-level high-grade bloodthirsty crocodile."
Li Xuankun on the side also nodded in agreement.
Li Xuanyu lowered his voice and asked:
"What should we do?"
Li Xuantian thought for a while and then said:
"Our mission this time is to clear out these monster beasts, and since this bloodthirsty crocodile only has a second-level high-level cultivation, it is natural to deal with it."
Upon hearing this, the other three agreed.
Next, the three people roughly divided the work for the next actions. Then they started taking action.
...
Next, Li Xuanyu once again used the method of transforming spiritual energy into objects, and this time what he transformed into was an earth horse beast.
The same trick was repeated, but this time the bloodthirsty crocodile did not appear. No matter how much Li Xuanyu manipulated the transformed earth horse beast to tease him at the edge of the pool, there was not even a single ripple in the calm water.
After waiting for an hour, Li Xuantian became a little impatient. He stood up directly and walked towards the pool while saying to Li Xuangang and the others:
"It seems that this bloodthirsty crocodile has seen through Xuan Yu's methods. If this is the case, then we don't have to be secretive and just go up and kill it."
Li Xuangang thought about it and felt that what his second brother Li Xuantian said was right.
So he also took out an Eight Spider Green Light Sword and followed behind Li Xuantian.
Next, Li Xuankun and Li Xuanyu also walked out of the sunken earth pit, took out their magic weapons, and followed Li Xuantian and Li Xuangang in front.
The distance of more than ten feet was not far, and the four of them came within ten feet of the pool in an instant.
Li Xuantian signaled Li Xuangang and the others to disperse, and the four of them formed a fan shape to surround the pool.
After the four of them stood still and prepared all the magic weapons in their hands.
Li Xuantian attached his spiritual power to the magical weapon called Minghuang Spear in his hand, then he held the Minghuang Spear with one hand and stabbed it into the pool with all his strength.
Under the blessing of Li Xuantian's powerful power, the Minghuang Spear turned into a bright yellow beam of light and pierced straight into the pool.
Because the speed of the Minghuang Spear was so fast, the water that touched the gun body seemed to be actively avoiding it. In an instant, Li Xuantian's Minghuang Spear had already penetrated deep into the pool of water.
Then, a white line appeared in the turquoise water.
After two or three breaths, Li Xuantian pinched a magic formula in his hand, and then shouted "Get up".
Immediately afterwards, something big seemed to happen below the pool, because huge bubbles kept rising slowly from below.
After these bubbles come into contact with the air, they explode on the water surface, forming "splashes".
Li Xuangang and the others retreated, waiting for the appearance of this bloodthirsty crocodile.
