Zhou Qing's strength doesn't mean he is invincible underwater, but he can come and go freely.

To be honest, even if Zhou Qing really encountered a wild beast in the tendon and vein realm, he was not afraid.

The shrimp soldiers and crab generals told Zhou Qing about three resource points, two of which had spiritual plants. They were extremely hidden and no beasts could discover them. Zhou Qing took them directly, very easily.

And at the third resource point, there was actually a skeleton and a spiritual plant that looked like a lotus root.

Zhou Qing scratched his head. He never thought that the nonsense he and Bai Ruoyue had talked about would actually come true.

But Zhou Qing's vigilance was also raised to the highest level.

Sure enough, a pair of blood-red eyes lit up next to the lotus root, and as the water surged, a crocodile more than ten meters long appeared in front of Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing's heart tightened, and his spiritual sense was beating, reminding him that the crocodile in front of him was not simple.

This is most likely a very rare crocodile at the tendon and vein level! Zhou Qing was unlucky. The information given to him by the shrimp soldiers and crab generals mentioned this crocodile, but they said that this crocodile was only at the skin and flesh level.

If the shrimp soldiers and crab generals did not lie, it means that the crocodile broke through later.

The big crocodile opened its bloody mouth and rushed straight towards Zhou Qing.

For wild beasts, unless they encounter a creature that they are instinctively afraid of, they will not retreat. They will only choose to tear apart everything in front of them. They are very stubborn.

From a distance, Zhou Qing could smell the fishy stench coming from the crocodile's mouth.

Dog thing, no, it's crocodile thing, you should brush your teeth! Zhou Qing took the fragment of the weapon and didn't run away immediately.

He had also felt the strength of a warrior in the tendons and veins realm when he practiced with his senior brothers on weekdays, and the strength of Taibai disciples was definitely excellent among those of the same level.

With his skills, he may be able to defeat this crocodile.

This is how spiritual practice works. Every time a strong person breaks through, the improvement he gets will only get greater and greater, and the benefits he gains will far exceed those of a weak person.

The strong become stronger and the weak become weaker. This is an unchanging truth.

"call!"

The water flowed violently, forming whirlpools. When the crocodile swung its tail, it created countless rapids.

Zhou Qing just barely dodged the crocodile's attack and hit the crocodile on its back with his gun. The crocodile felt the pain and swayed.

While the huge size brings abundant energy and great strength, it also makes it easier to become a target.

However, the defensive power of this crocodile armor is quite exaggerated.

"puff!"

After dodging a lot, Zhou Qing was still hit by the crocodile's tail and was knocked away.

The blood and qi surged and there was a faint pain, but fortunately the inner armor was there to cushion the pain.

Compared with wild beasts, humans do not have sharp claws and fangs, nor strong scales, but humans have weapons, which to a great extent eliminates the innate gap between the two sides.

The crocodile came up again, and this time Zhou Qing swam nimbly onto its back. As the crocodile rolled, Zhou Qing rolled with it, bombarding the beast all the time.

Occasionally, when he was hit by the crocodile's tail, Zhou Qing would hold on to the crocodile's feet tightly to stabilize his body and prevent himself from being hit and flew away.

The crocodile became more and more manic, going crazy at the bottom of the water, and even rushed into the mud at the bottom of the river. The stones on both sides of the river wanted to drive Zhou Qing down.

But how could Zhou Qing be hurt by such means?

The biggest difference between humans and wild beasts is wisdom! Beasts are beasts. Even mortals can use wisdom to hunt and kill all kinds of beasts, not to mention that Zhou Qing also has strong strength, so he has more room to maneuver.

The crocodile beast's huge size allowed it to run rampant in this river area in the past, with few rivals. But this time, facing the "tiny" humans, its size has become a burden.

The more it struggled, the faster its own strength was consumed. Even its sturdy scales could not withstand the impact of the weapon fragments.

At a certain moment, Zhou Qing found the right opportunity, and when the crocodile opened its mouth wide, he poured out his tremendous mental power and attacked the crocodile.

At the same time, the ability to control ordinary water obtained by upgrading the water-repellent bead fragments was activated to limit the water flow around the crocodile, making the crocodile sluggish for a moment.

Zhou Qing took the broken gun barrel and stabbed it into the bloody mouth of the crocodile beast, deep into its throat, and then stirred it violently a few times.

The beast's blood flowed out instantly, dyeing a large area of ​​water red. The crocodile beast went crazy in pain, and its body swung violently.

A tremendous force came from the crocodile under him. Zhou Qing held the gun barrel with both hands and did not continue to lie on the crocodile. He swam flexibly, pulled out a part of the gun barrel, and then stabbed it back in heavily.

One step to the stomach! At this point, the battle was decided. The crocodile, which had been severely injured, could no longer make any waves and could not escape even if it wanted to.

Who says you can't kill someone without a spear? It can be said that such a beast is much easier to deal with than a warrior in the tendon realm.

Zhou Qing did not delay and immediately went down to pick the lotus root spiritual plant, took the skeleton with him, and dragged the corpse of the crocodile beast to the surface of the river.

"Big sister, look, there's a crocodile in the sky!"

Zhou Qing surfaced and shouted, and when Bai Ruoyue looked up, he threw the beast's corpse into the sky, splashing water everywhere.

The wonder of the crocodile in the sky is achieved! "Is this a water beast of the tendon realm?!" Bai Ruoyue was shocked, "Zhou Qing, you are so brave, aren't you? You dare to cause trouble for this beast?"

"Big sister, I'm not the one who's causing trouble for it, it's it who's causing trouble for me."

After reaching the shore, Zhou Qing pointed at the skeleton and said:

"I found this underwater, but this skeleton doesn't look like a human skeleton?"

I saw that this skeleton had a long tailbone between its thighs, three long and pointed finger bones in each hand, and a green bone between its eyebrows that was bent upward like a horn.

This is clearly not a human.

"This should be the skeleton left behind by the monster after its death." Bai Ruoyue said.

"monster?"

Zhou Qing bent down and took a close look at the seventh rib of the skeleton.

It was only under the sun that I discovered that this seventh rib was different from the other bones and had a faint blue glow.

When underwater, no matter whether it was observed with the naked eye or examined with mental power, no difference was found in this bone.

"Did you find anything else besides the skeleton?"

"Nothing."

Zhou Qing shook his head. He had examined it carefully and found only a skeleton and a lotus root, and nothing else.

“Empty!”

Zhou Qing reached out and knocked on the seventh rib and found that it was hollow, which surprised Zhou Qing. He tried other bones and they were all different from that rib.

"Is there something in here?"

Zhou Qing thought about it, and extended his mental power, touching the seventh rib. Before he could continue to extend it inside to check, he saw a green light spreading on the ribs, and a square piece of jade actually came out of the ribs and fell to the ground.

Look at that rib again; its color is no different from the other bones.

“Could this be…”

Looking at the square green jade, this word popped up in Zhou Qing's mind.

Jade slip?

He is familiar with this thing!
