Chapter 739 The Return of the Gods 23
There is a bottomless abyss ahead. If you are dragged in, you will be skinned alive even if you don’t die.
Quan Jiu drew out his sword and cut off the tentacles. The sword made a metallic sound when it touched the tentacles. The tentacles paused, but were not cut off. However, they did not continue to attack, as if they were afraid of the sword in Quan Jiu's hand.
Staring at the tentacles on the edge of the cliff, Quan Jiu breathed a sigh of relief. Before he could breathe a second sigh, a rustling sound of friction came from behind him.
When she turned around, she saw a centipede with 100 legs more than ten meters high, with bloodshot eyes and long tentacles waving in the air, staring straight at Quan Jiu, who was emitting a fragrant aroma.
Quan Jiu: “…”
She seemed to know the second reason why people who entered the formation could not get out.
This is a demon beast in the Mahayana period.
Even a hundred of her current selves would not be enough for the other party to chew on.
"Hi~"
Quan Jiu raised his head and waved his paw obediently at the big boss in the maze.
Perhaps in the entire Cangkong Continent, only the elders of the Temple and the Hidden Family can defeat the centipede monster in front of them.
Having seen many panicked and scared humans, the centipede monster was stunned for a moment when it saw a human smiling and greeting it for the first time. But it was only stunned for a moment. The next second, it still swooped towards Quan Jiu.
There is very little food in the maze, and there is no way it will miss the delicious food in front of it.
"Bang--!!"
A long crack appeared on the edge of the cliff where Quan Jiu was standing, and the huge rocks on the edge of the cliff rolled into the abyss.
Quan Jiu had already moved to the side and rear of the centipede, barely avoiding the attack. She patted her chest and said:
“That was a close call.”
If you can't win, just run away, but the centipede monster obviously doesn't give her a chance. To make matters worse, the tentacles under the cliff emerge again, blocking Quan Jiu's way.
"grass!"
Quan Jiu cursed and simply stopped running.
"I'm just one person, not enough for you two to share. How about you discuss it and each of you take half?"
As both were Mahayana stage magical beasts, she could feel that the centipede monster was slightly more powerful than the tentacle monster.
After hearing her words, the centipede monster and the tentacle monster stopped attacking at the same time, obviously thinking that what she said made sense.
Neither of them was willing to share their prey, and there was a smell of gunpowder between the two monsters.
Quan Jiu simply gave up, sat down on the spot, and crossed his legs:
"How about this, whoever wins, I'll go with him."
The centipede monster took the lead in attacking the tentacle monster. Its dense tentacles wrapped around the black tentacles, making a scalp-numbing biting sound.
At this moment, another tentacle emerged from the abyss and wrapped around the centipede monster's head.
The pressure from the Mahayana stage monsters was no joke. If a low-level person entered the range of the pressure, their body would be crushed. However, Quan Jiu seemed not to feel the pressure and was watching and pondering the duel between the Mahayana stage monsters carefully.
In the end, the centipede monster with deeper cultivation gained the upper hand. Two tentacles of the tentacle monster were bitten off, and it lost its combat effectiveness. Dark red blood flowed all over the cliff, while the centipede monster only broke a dozen legs.
After driving away the competitors, the centipede monster finally took a look at today's spoils.
Quan Jiu sat on the edge of the cliff and smiled at it: "Awesome, brother."
Centipede Monster: “???”
It doesn't understand why humans can still smile so brightly before they die.
Before it could come up with an answer, the woman sitting on the edge of the cliff suddenly fell backwards, plummeting straight into the abyss!
The centipede demon hurried forward and tried to grab her body, but Quan Jiu was prepared and calculated the distance accurately, so the centipede demon only had time to grab a corner of her clothes.
There was a swirling and whistling wind in his ears, and a strong sense of weightlessness attacked his brain. Quan Jiu summoned his long sword and barely managed to fly in the abyss with the sword.
But the mountain wind was too strong, and her sword-wielding skills were not working from time to time. After crashing into the cliff wall several times, she gasped and fell to the ground with a thud.
“Cough cough cough…”
As soon as she landed, her chest began to boil and bright red blood flowed from the corners of her mouth.
Quan Jiu ignored her injuries and looked around the quiet surroundings. After making sure that the tentacle monster was not at the bottom of the valley, she carefully found a cave.
“Cough cough cough…”
She applied medicine, but the coughing did not stop. She had lost too much blood from the wound, and the temperature around her was too low, making it very easy for her to fall into a state of temperature imbalance.
There were no dead branches or leaves around to start a fire, so Quan Jiu searched the entire storage space before he found a modern red Zang cloak.
Um.
The one that aunt loves most when traveling.
She remembered that it was the apocalyptic plane, and her original body's younger brother stuffed it into her space.
The cloak was not thick and had average warmth retention. Even after Quan Jiu put it on, his hands and feet were still cold.
She walked out of the cave, ready to explore the way, but after taking just two steps, a light snowflake began to fall across the entire canyon...
Quan Jiu wiped away the snowflakes on his head and continued to move forward. The further he went, the lower the temperature became.
She hesitated whether to stop, but as soon as she turned back, she met the tentacle monster that was seriously injured by the centipede monster. With new hatred and old grudges, the tentacle monster launched a fierce attack on her.
After Quan Jiu stepped over a stone tablet, the angry tentacle monster suddenly stopped attacking and stopped moving forward. A hint of fear appeared in its eyes, and it looked at Quan Jiu with hatred that wanted to destroy the world.
Quan Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly and stood still without dodging, but the tentacle monster still refused to take a single step past the stone tablet.
Don’t dare to come over?
She turned and looked at the cave behind her. With the stone tablet as the dividing line, the place where the tentacle monster dared not come was covered with a thin layer of ice debris, and the cliffs on both sides turned ice blue.
Quan Jiu felt a little depressed.
Even against the centipede monster, the tentacle monster dared to fight, but when faced with this unknown ice valley creature, it actively avoided it. This only proved that the creatures in the ice valley were more dangerous than the great perfection stage magic beasts...
She did not move immediately, but sat there to heal her wounds. The tentacle monster did not give up either. Across the Chu River and Han River dividing the land, its pair of sinister black eyes stared at Quan Jiu's face.
The man and the beast confronted each other for three days, and Quan Jiu's injuries were almost recovered. Every time she made a move, the tentacle monster, which had closed its eyes to rest, would immediately open its eyes and look at her.
Facing the cold beast's eyes, Quan Jiu stood up slowly:
"You continue to guard here, I won't accompany you anymore."
If she didn't leave, this tentacle monster would probably stay with her until the universe collapsed.
Quan Jiu ignored the angry sound of falling rocks behind him and entered the ice valley cautiously.
There were small stones on the ground mixed with snowflakes, and after walking for a while, the soles of her shoes became wet.
The wet feeling was not pleasant. She frowned and endured the stickiness on the soles of her feet.
“Tick…”
The sound of water dripping on the stone wall.
Quan Jiu turned a corner and suddenly saw a clear ice-blue cold pool in front of her eyes. She looked around and after making sure there were no other living creatures around, she squatted down and poked the water with a finger.
With the fingertips as the center, ripples spread out in circles, and the water surface is shining with a rugged cold light.
Quan Jiu's fingertips felt slightly cold. Just as she was about to withdraw her hand, a large, bony hand suddenly appeared from the depths of the ripples, tightly grasped her wrist, and pulled it downwards!
