The sword energy struck the giant crocodile, but it did not cause much damage, only leaving a sword mark on its skin.

Lan Qin's expression changed drastically. "How is this possible?"

She was well aware of the power of the Witch God Sword; if she used it at full strength, she could even kill the Xia King.

However, at this moment, only a sword mark was left on the giant crocodile's skin.

It's not that the giant crocodile is much stronger than the Xia King, it's just that it has thicker skin and tougher flesh.

While Lan Qin was still in a daze, the giant crocodile had already pounced close, opening its blood-red maw to devour her.

Fortunately, at the last moment, Lan Qin reacted and narrowly avoided the giant crocodile.

Although she managed to evade it, Lan Qin felt extremely heavy-hearted. She couldn't escape, and she couldn't defeat it either.

If nothing unexpected happens, she will surely perish in the belly of the giant crocodile.

The giant crocodile reacted very quickly, its tail sweeping directly towards Lan Qin.

It was extremely fast. Although Lanqin was prepared, her reaction was still a beat too slow.

With a "bang," Lan Qin was instantly sent flying sixty or seventy meters away by the giant crocodile's tail.

"puff"

Lan Qin had just managed to regain her balance when she spat out a mouthful of blood, her face turning pale, indicating that she was seriously injured.

"Damn Qin Feng, you bastard, I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"

If Qin Feng were here, she felt she would definitely not be in this situation now.

With the sword in Qin Feng's hand, there is a very high chance that he could cleave the giant crocodile in two with a single strike.

At this moment, the giant crocodile attacked again. Because she was already seriously injured, Lan Qin wanted to dodge but was powerless to do so.

Just as the giant crocodile was about to swallow Lan Qin whole, a blinding golden light flashed, and the giant crocodile suddenly split in two and fell to the ground.

Lan Qin was stunned for a moment, then looked closely and saw Qin Feng holding the Dragon Cloud Sword, hovering in the air at a height of seven or eight meters not far away.

She was surprised, delighted, and a little angry. "You bastard, if you had been any later, this beast would have eaten me."

Qin Feng ignored Lan Qin and landed directly in front of the giant crocodile's corpse, taking out a demon core.

This is no ordinary demon core; it contains potent poison. If refined into a poison pill, even a Nascent Soul cultivator would suffer greatly if caught off guard.

Qin Feng put away the demon core before looking at Lan Qin with a half-smile. "Are you sick?"

"Even if that beast eats you, what does it have to do with me?"

"Although you are my little maid, you do not treat me as your master."

"You don't respect me, yet you expect me to be nice to you? Do you think that's possible?"

Lan Qin was so angry that she wanted to bite someone. She was so frightened and embarrassed, what was wrong with letting her vent her emotions by cursing a few times?

Seeing that Lan Qin did not reply, Qin Feng took out a healing pill and threw it over.

Then, he threw the Dragon Cloud Sword into the air at a height of one meter. After the Dragon Cloud Sword grew to five or six meters in length and two meters in width, he jumped onto it.

Lan Qin was furious when she saw this. He could have flown on his sword to carry her, but he chose to fly through the air. He was obviously trying to take advantage of her.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and leaped onto the Dragon Cloud Sword.

Then she sat down to meditate and took healing pills to treat her injuries.

Qin Feng then controlled the Dragon Cloud Sword to fly to a height of a thousand meters.

Flying on a sword is much more convenient; you don't need to worry about poison gas or being ambushed by suddenly appearing poisonous beasts.

Two hours later, Qin Feng and his companion left the poisonous fog swamp and entered the rocky desert area.

As the name suggests, the Rocky Desert is a desert area, but it is full of all kinds of huge and strange rocks.

These strangely shaped rocks are densely packed together, varying in size.

At first glance, there was absolutely no sign of life.

Lan Qin's injuries had basically healed. She looked down at the densely packed strange rocks below, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"Did you notice?"

"These stones are arranged in an orderly manner, as if someone had placed them there?"

"Look over there, doesn't it look like it's arranged using the Yin-Yang and Eight Trigrams?"

Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction Lan Qin was pointing. Sure enough, the strange rocks were arranged in an orderly manner, like a huge Yin-Yang Bagua diagram.

He immediately stopped the Dragon Cloud Sword and began to study it with surprise and uncertainty.

Fairy Forest is alright, there's no real danger, but the Poison Mist Swamp is fraught with peril.

Now that he saw the Yin-Yang Bagua diagram, he suddenly suspected that the chaotic desert was probably not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Lan Qin looked around, her expression relaxing. "Although it's a bit strange, I can't see anything particularly unusual about it!"

"I don't think we need to worry about it. After all, we're thousands of meters in the air. Even if there's something special about it, it shouldn't have any impact on us."

Qin Feng thought Lan Qin's words made sense, so he directly controlled the Dragon Cloud Sword to fly forward.

"boom"

Just as Qin Feng and Lan Qin relaxed their guard, a deafening roar suddenly came from the desert below.

Qin Feng and Lan Qin were both startled and instinctively looked down, but they didn't see anything.

"not good!"

At this moment, Qin Feng's expression suddenly changed drastically. He sensed an extremely terrifying anti-air restriction force.

Before he could react, the Dragon Cloud Sword plummeted downwards.

When they were about 100 meters from the ground, Qin Feng finally reacted, quickly put away the Dragon Cloud Sword, and hugged Lan Qin.

As soon as she landed on the ground, Lan Qin, her face flushed, shouted, "Let go!"

Qin Feng was stunned for a moment. Only then did he realize that his palms were very full and firm.

He instinctively pinched it, first startled, then his expression changed drastically, and he quickly dodged back more than ten meters.

Lan Qin's face was ashen, and her eyes seemed to be spitting fire.

"Qin Feng, you bastard!"

"You...you actually dared to take advantage of me? Are you looking for death?"

Qin Feng looked embarrassed. "I didn't mean to."

"You know what happened just now; it was purely a subconscious action."

"I assure you, if there's a next time, I'll stand by and let you land freely!"

Lan Qin was so angry she felt like she was going to vomit blood. Was she referring to the person who hugged her during the fall?

It turned out that this awful guy had just pinched him.

no!

I must hold back!

I can't beat this guy, and if I keep arguing with him, he'll drive me crazy.

Lan Qin took a deep breath, then glared expressionlessly at Qin Feng. "You just wait, you better pray your strength will always be above mine!"

"Otherwise, I'll not only chop off your dog paws, but I'll also make you a eunuch."

Qin Feng curled his lip indifferently; he simply did not believe that Lan Qin's strength could surpass his own.

Even if that day ever comes, wouldn't it be enough for him to just stay far away?

"boom"

Just then, another deafening explosion occurred.

Qin Feng and Lan Qin's expressions changed, and they quickly looked around.

The result was the same as before; nothing unusual was observed.
