"I heard that this Nine-Headed Serpent has nine heads?" Yan Xuehen recalled the information Shun had mentioned earlier.

"They sound tough to deal with." Although Yun Jianyue said this, she showed no fear whatsoever.

She and Yan Xuehen have now recovered most of their strength. Together with Zu An and Yu Yanluo, as long as they don't encounter a powerful immortal like the Demon Emperor, they can practically roam freely.

"What I'm more curious about is why so many of these monsters have snake bodies," Zu'an pondered. The previous Yayu Erfu's true form was a human head and a snake body, Xiu She was a snake, and now this Jiuying seems to also have a snake body.

"Why are you looking at me? How would I know?" Yu Yanluo's cheeks flushed slightly as she glared at him irritably.

Seeing her embarrassed look, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

The group continued on their way in this joyful atmosphere, and soon they left Shouhua Wilderness and came to a turbulent river.

The group exchanged bewildered glances: "Why does this look so familiar?"

It's no wonder they felt that way, because the great river in front of them was very similar to the Weak Water they had seen before, and its turbulent waves were even stronger.

Zuan squatted on the bank, put his hand into the river, felt it for a while, and then stood up again: "This river water is quite normal, unlike the Weak Water where everything sinks. But there's something strange about this river. I just checked it out, and it seems bottomless."

He used the Blue Duck's ability to sense the depth of the river. It was at least several hundred feet deep, if not a thousand feet. This was simply outrageous. You should know that in his previous life, the deepest part of the Yangtze River was only a little over a hundred meters, and that was only because of the Three Gorges Dam which was going to impound water.

This river is as deep as Shanghai!

"Is the Nine-Headed Serpent hiding inside?" The group was quite alarmed when they heard how deep the water was. After going through the previous challenges, they really didn't want to touch the water again.

For a while, the group couldn't find a good way to find Jiuying. Just when they were at their wits' end, they suddenly heard a faint cry of a baby.

"How could a baby appear in a place like this?" Yun Jianyue frowned.

Yan Xuehen remained calm. With her Supreme Forgetfulness Technique, it was difficult for her to experience any emotional fluctuations unless it involved Zu An and her.

Yu Yanluo looked around and said, "Let's go take a look. If it's a local person who accidentally left the child here, we can rescue him and return him to his family."

Having passed through the previous checkpoints, they also noticed that there were actually indigenous people in this world.

"Be careful, it might be a trap. There's a baby in this desolate place, it doesn't seem normal at all," Yun Jianyue warned.

Yu Yanluo nodded slightly and carefully searched the surroundings.

Soon they arrived at a reed bed on the riverbank, where the baby's cries were coming from.

"Could it be an abandoned baby?" Yu Yanluo frowned slightly. How could a normal child be left in a place like this? She had heard of people abandoning babies in places like reed marshes.

She parted the dense reeds, searching carefully for the child, when suddenly a gaping maw emerged from the reeds and lunged at her.

"Watch out!" the others hurriedly warned, while simultaneously offering their assistance.

Fortunately, Yu Yanluo was not the kind of naive and kind person. She had been on guard from the very beginning. At the critical moment, she lightly touched the ground with her toes and floated away, avoiding the fatal blow.

At this moment, Zuan and his group's attack arrived. As the gaping maw dodged, it straightened its body, and only then did the group get a clear look at its appearance.

It doesn't have just one gaping maw, but nine; it has a head, but a huge snake body.

Although it is smaller than the serpent at its peak, its nine freely swaying heads still make it look extremely creepy.

Because of the attack, the nine-headed monster roared angrily at the group.

At this moment, everyone finally realized where the baby's crying had come from—it was the sound coming from its mouth!

No wonder it's called Nine Infants!

At this moment, Yun Jianyue laughed: "It's more satisfying to have an opponent like this. There's no complicated backstory, you just have to fight."

Zuan chuckled, knowing she was complaining about the ferocious beasts they encountered in the previous levels. Each one had a complicated past, and sometimes they were too embarrassed to be ruthless when dealing with them.

At this moment, the Nine-Headed Serpent was somewhat angry. These tiny humans showed no fear whatsoever in front of its majestic body, instead appearing to be chatting and laughing.

This is absolutely outrageous!

One of its snake heads suddenly opened its mouth, and a jet of water shot towards the group, like a high-pressure water gun.

The group quickly dodged, and the spot where they stood was instantly blasted into a huge crater by the powerful flow of water.

Yun Jianyue snorted coldly and immediately swung her Star Moon Wheel to counterattack. However, several of the Nine-Headed Serpent's heads sprayed water at the same time, blocking her Star Moon Wheel.

The spray of water droplets resembled a dense barrage of bullets, leaving countless deep marks on the riverbank.

At this moment, the snake heads changed their previous method of spraying thick water jets, and instead sprayed out thin streams of water.

Wherever it goes, even hard stones are instantly and silently cut in half.

Yun Jianyue manipulated the crescent moon wheel to protect herself from the dense attacks, managing to block them completely, but she had no chance to counterattack for the time being.

Zuan was secretly alarmed. It is said that nothing is softer than water, but water is also extremely powerful. In his previous life, he had seen some videos explaining water knives, which could cut through iron like mud. He never expected to see it with his own eyes today.

At that moment, the surrounding air suddenly dropped, and snowflakes fell everywhere.

It was clearly Yan Xuehen who made the move; her Snowflake Divine Sword was a perfect counter to water-based attacks.
