Chapter 535: The Ferocious Beast
Looking down at the crimson gold crystal in his palm, a faint smile finally appeared on his calm, handsome face.
He put the Crimson Flame Golden Crystal into his storage ring, intending to give it to Ye Fei after he went up.
Suddenly, he felt a scent mixed with a faint smell of blood coming from behind him. He turned around abruptly and saw several tentacle-like things emerging from the other side of the cliff, rushing towards him at an extremely fast speed!
Mu Jingshen's eyes narrowed, and he slashed at the tentacles with his hand, which were cut in half by his ice-type spiritual energy.
Ye Fei also noticed the tentacles and raised an eyebrow: "What are those?"
Before Mu Jingshen could utter a single word, the tentacle he had severed instantly transformed into a soft, gelatinous substance, which snapped tightly around the Shattered Void Sword beneath his feet!
Then, a bizarre scene unfolded—the gelatinous substance transformed into tentacles once more, forcefully wrapping around the Shattered Void Sword, seemingly trying to drag Mu Jingshen and the sword off the cliff!
Mu Jingshen stared at his weapon, which was covered in sticky, gelatinous substance from the tentacles. His face was so dark it looked like it was about to drip water, and killing intent surged from the depths of his eyes.
Daring to soil his sword... you're asking for death!
Mu Jingshen activated his Ice Spirit Root, emanating a chilling aura. Under his control, the aura condensed into countless icy blue sword blades, which he then sent flying with a wave of his hand!
At the edge of the cliff, red light emanated from Yun Fusang's eyes; this was the first time she had activated her pupil technique since regaining her sight.
The Realm of Eye Techniques, open!
Following the countless red lines connecting the realm of pupil techniques, Yun Fusang saw something hidden on the other side of the cliff—a strange and eerie beast covered in gray fur, which would be frightening if looked at for too long, with a tail formed from several thin tentacles.
Yun Fusang was surprised. What kind of spirit beast was this? She had never seen it before.
From an angle unseen by others, a purple light flashed in Li Yuan's dark eyes. He stared intently at the opposite side of the cliff, and after a long while, he said, word by word, "The Ferocious Beast."
"A ferocious beast?" Ye Fei subconsciously looked at Li Yuan. "What kind of spirit beast is that?"
"This spirit beast is a combination of a land spirit beast and a sea beast. Its tail has a powerful regenerative ability; even if it is broken off, it can regenerate in an instant, and..."
Li Yuan changed the subject, saying quietly, "Its food is humans."
Upon hearing this, everyone present felt a chill run down their spines!
“Generally speaking, the number of tentacles on the tail of the ferocious beast represents how many people it has eaten. For each person it eats, a new tentacle grows.” Li Yuan stared expressionlessly at Mu Jingshen, who was struggling against the tentacles. “It is hunting for food, and it seems to have a new target.”
Ye Fei's expression changed: "What's its weakness? What is it?"
Before Li Yuan could speak, one of the tentacles wrapped around Mu Jingshen's arm, and he immediately felt his hand being pulled by a great force!
"Depth of field!"
Seeing that his companion of many years was about to be taken away, Huang Rongyu felt anxious and instinctively made a summoning gesture with his hand. A dazzling light appeared in front of him.
The light faded, and the Fuguang Seven-Stringed Zither reappeared!
Huang Rongyu held the zither with one hand and plucked the strings with the other, sending several streams of brilliant golden energy filled with boundless killing intent toward the tentacles surrounding Mu Jingshen!
The moment the tentacles came into contact with the airflow, they instantly turned into a pool of stagnant water, and could not regenerate!
"Awooo..." The painful cry of the ferocious beast came from the other side of the cliff.
Huang Rongyu's eyes widened, his fingers trembling slightly on the strings as images that weren't his own rushed into his mind—
