Chapter 249: Escape in the Lake
“Is there any way to deal with the attack by the monster in the lake?” Lu Xiaotian asked in a deep voice.
"Of course there is. Fellow Taoist is different from others, but it is also necessary for the fellow Taoist to take the little girl to Blackwater Lake, and then the little girl will tell the fellow Taoist the method." The girl had eaten once just now. Unfortunately, although she was grateful for Lu Xiaotian's actions, she still had some reservations. After all, this was her last magic weapon to save her life.
“Deal!” Lu Xiaotian didn’t expect that the girl actually had a hand in hand. Even though the monsters in the lake were powerful, they might not be able to defeat him. There were too many black beetles. Could it be that the monsters in the lake were There are more monsters than black beetles. Of course, it's not bad if you can avoid trouble.
The skinny old man was quite powerful. He was already in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and the bald man was not too slow. The girl glanced at Lu Xiaotian in surprise. Lu Xiaotian’s cultivation seemed to be only in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. Although her weight is much lighter than that of a bald man, this weight is not enough for Xiu Xiu. As far as the monks are concerned, there is not much substantial difference. The annoying young monk was pushed back with one punch before. Now he is no slower than the skinny old man. There is a lucky smile in the girl's eyes. It seems that Her luck wasn't too bad, at least the strength of the young man in front of her was far from what it seemed, and his character was much stronger than those who left directly.
Several people ran away, but because of the oil bottles, the speed was slightly slower than those who left before. Several times I encountered small groups of black beetles encircling me from the front. Although they are said to be small stocks, they actually number in the thousands. There was a small area of darkness, which looked very ferocious and terrifying.
“Hi!”
The skinny old man is a wood monk. When faced with this situation, he stretched out his left hand, and a thick ivy stretched out from his sleeve. It didn’t look big. The green vines protruding from his sleeves are not short, they are dozens of feet long. One end of the vine was tied to a branch of a towering tree overhead, like a swing. It pulled the bald man along and swung a long distance in the blink of an eye. After doing this several times, he was out of the interception range of the black beetle in front. There is no need to fight head-on, it is actually a good idea. Although those black beetles climbed up the tree, it still took a certain amount of time to climb down the ivy. Although a very small number of black beetles climbed from the tree to the ivy, the thin old man shook the black beetles from the green vine with a slight shock. The vines shook open. I didn't expect this old man to have such a skill. However, most people can't imitate it. Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but smile bitterly. His demon-binding rope is a good magic weapon. It can be stretched to a certain extent, but it can't reach the exaggerated level of Qingteng. It seems that the skinny old man's Rooting an ivy is not easy, and being a wood cultivator brings certain conveniences. Most people simply cannot imitate it.
When the girl saw that the skinny old man had escaped from the trap, her complexion changed greatly. However, the skinny old man already had the bald man as a dragster and could not take care of more. It was not good for her to do this. Go say something. It was just that I originally thought that the two sides could join forces, but suddenly half of them were missing. Naturally, I felt a little nervous.
Lu Xiaotian thought for a moment and directly used the Hanhuang Seal. A large seal of black ice appeared out of thin air. The cold air even made the girl shiver. As for the black beetles that were close, they were frozen into ice cubes. A layer of frost continued to expand outward with the ice mark as the center. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of black beetles were frozen stiff, and those who got close were frozen to death. Although black beetles are not afraid of life and death, all monsters always have the characteristic of seeking advantages and avoiding harm. Especially the cold air makes these black beetles who are not afraid of pain have an instinctive fear, that is, they will not freeze to death. , the movements will also slow down.
Under the control of Lu Xiaotian, the Xuanbing Seal continued to move forward, forming a passage formed by a refrigerator wherever it passed. Lu Xiaotian took the girl and left quickly. The reason why he chose the Cold Desolation Seal was naturally because the Cold Desolation Seal consumes the mana within the magic beads. It is not a battle for foundation-building monks, but is used to clear the way among these low-level black beetles, and the mana consumed is much smaller. If it's more, he can last longer.
These black beetles did not act as a delay, and Lu Xiaotian had already rushed out with the girl.
"Suggest a friendly way!" The thin old man originally thought that Lu Xiaotian would have to spend a lot of time, but he didn't expect that he would come out so abruptly. It was heart-wrenching to see. He used the ivy to be a bit tricky. , the seemingly young young man in front of him has real abilities. He didn't know what kind of treasure it was, but he could feel the powerful aura contained in this mysterious ice seal. I'm afraid it wouldn't be easy for him to take over this mysterious ice seal, but the other party could keep it like this. What a strange thing. I don’t know what magic weapon was used to have such an effect. Just looking at Lu Xiaotian's movements, there was no sign of using a magical weapon. Could it be that the other party was an ice monk? The thin old man couldn't help but think to himself. For a moment, Lu Xiaotian had already rushed in front of him.
After breaking through the obstruction of the small group of black beetles in front, Lu Xiaotian stopped using the Han Desolate Seal. Later, we encountered several waves of insects of different sizes. Lu Xiaotian repeated his old plan and used the Cold Desolation Seal. There is no limit to the number of times the Cold Desolation Seal can be used. As long as the mana in the magic bead has not been exhausted, it can be used repeatedly. With the improvement of strength, although the degree of reliance on the magic beads is reduced now, the magic beads play a very crucial role in many cases. Just like this time, the black beetle, who is not cold-tolerant, has an instinctive fear of the severe cold. For Lu Xiaotian, as long as he briefly stops the impact of the black beetle tide, he can rush out of the opened gap. With Lu Xiaotian repeating his old plan, the thin old man behind him also took advantage. Even Ivy was too lazy to use it and ran out directly behind Lu Xiaotian.
"Ahead is the lake." Breaking through several waves of insects, the girl was extremely excited and pointed forward. In fact, he didn't need the girl to guide him right now, he could feel the moisture in the air and the sound of the rippling tide on the lake.
Among the towering giant trees and surrounded by mountains, a black lake was rippling, and the lake water showed a blue-black color. Although it is blue and black, it gives people a sense of purity, like a blue-black gemstone under the blue sky.
At this time, a large number of black beetles had gathered by the lake. Seeing a large number of monsters jumping into the water, the black beetles with extremely low intelligence became impatient, and some of them also jumped into the water. , but the lake is so deep that you can’t even make a single wave when you get in. There are also some orangutans covered in black beetles, and the black wolf is miserable. Howling, he jumped into the water, and the water washed away the black beetles on these monster beasts. He took a breather temporarily, but before these monster beasts could take a breath, a bloody mouth opened in the lake water, revealing a cold and cold mouth. With one bite, a huge mountain ape was bitten in half, and the upper body was still howling miserably.
Lu Xiaotian was surprised. It seemed that the girl was right. This Blackwater Lake was not a good place, and those who escaped first might not be able to get a good deal.
Lu Xiaotian looked at it intently, and there were indeed a few bloody rags floating on the lake, which looked vaguely familiar. These people arrived earlier, but I'm afraid many people have died.
At this time, a large number of black beetles have gathered at the lake. Some black beetles have even rushed into the lake in groups like ants, but they were quickly dispersed by the lake water. More black beetles surged in. edge. What follows is even more difficult to count.
"How to avoid the monsters hunting in the lake?" Lu Xiaotian asked the girl in a deep voice, looking at the undercurrents and whirlpools surging one after another in the lake, and the ferocious mouths that broke out of the water from time to time.
"Use this, take a drop, and apply it on your body." The girl raised her mouth and took out a small bottle from the storage bag, uncorked it, and found a strong fishy smell inside.
"Don't dislike this thing. This is the urine of the seventh-level black water dragon. Ordinary monsters will stay away when they smell his breath. There is only one drop in it. As long as you follow Next to me, those monsters will run away after smelling the smell and will not hurt us." The girl was also very unhappy with the contents of the bottle. When she saw Lu Xiaotian frowning, she quickly explained.
Lu Xiaotian nodded. At this moment, the girl had poured out the liquid inside, smeared it on her wrist, and held Lu Xiaotian tightly at the same time. Lu Xiaotian used the Cold Desolation Seal to clear the way, breaking through the obstruction of the black beetle by the lake, and jumped into the lake with dozens of other monsters.
With a splash, this blue-black water does not make people feel cold, but has a touch of warmth. The thin old man behind him gritted his teeth and jumped into the lake.
The monk's eyesight is naturally far beyond that of ordinary mortals. Even in the lake, he can see extremely far using his spiritual eyes. As soon as he fell into the lake, Lu Xiaotian saw several huge blue sharks. , black crocodiles, man-eating jellyfish, and monster beasts with the appearance of poisonous water. Dozens of them are rushing towards this side. Each one of them has the strength of level four or even above. Some of them have very powerful auras, and they are already Reached the sixth level. It is undoubtedly a very scary thing to have a conflict with these monsters in the water. Lu Xiaotian was also a little nervous, especially when he saw those sharp teeth. He felt tense and wanted to use the molten water bead. He bought a molten water bead at a high price in the underground auction in Wangyue City, but it was of no use. It happened several times, but each time it played a huge role, especially in the water. When the monk entered the water, his attack, defense, and speed were all compromised, but the melted water beads made the monk feel at ease in the water. . Use all your strength. It is precisely because of the molten water beads and Lu Xiaotian's own strong defense capabilities that he is not too afraid of entering the lake.
However, there was a sudden change and the molten water beads had not yet been used. The monsters in the water seemed to feel a very terrifying aura. These ferocious guys were like frightened birds, running away crazily in all directions.
"Haha, little girl, I didn't expect the things on you to be so effective. It's all thanks to you this time." The skinny old man and the bald man were almost green with fear when they saw the monster beast under the water. It is inevitable to be ecstatic to find life in a desperate situation at this time.
"Although this thing is a little disgusting, I got it with great difficulty, and it's an advantage for you two." The girl said a little depressed.
"Suffering a loss is a blessing." The thin old man smiled. He was able to escape from the disaster. He was in a good mood and rarely joked.
Farther away, it seemed that two people in the water had noticed the strange phenomenon here. It turned out to be the twin brothers, who were besieged by three poisonous jellyfish and were overwhelmed. They panicked and hurriedly approached the girl. Bian escaped.
“Shameless!” the bald man yelled angrily.
But Lu Xiaotian was more direct than the bald man. With a flick of his hand, the black flying sword shot towards the man in front of him.
“Damn it, we are all monks in Xuanye City, shouldn’t we help each other at this time?” Although the man was not threatened by Lu Xiaotian’s sword, he clearly felt Lu Xiaotian’s hostility.
"Why didn't you say anything when you left us and escaped? Now don't try to use us to escape danger." The girl was particularly supportive of Lu Xiaotian's actions.
“That’s right, you shameless guys, please wish yourselves the best.” The bald man also said with disdain.
"It's shameless. If you behave obediently, I will spare your lives for a while. If you don't appreciate me, don't blame me for being rude." The other twin said angrily.
"Then use your skills." Lu Xiaotian smiled coldly and punched out the Hanhuang Seal. In normal times, he would not bother to pay attention to this kind of thing. Today he encountered several changes one after another. , The luck was so bad that the only thing to blame was that these two guys were unlucky enough to hit the muzzle of the gun.
“Seeking death!”
The twin brothers got rid of the siege of several poisonous jellyfish and rushed towards Lu Xiaotian with fierce expressions. Both of them were at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment and had extraordinary strength. Naturally, they had no interest in Lu Xiaotian or the girl who was in the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Although the bald man was angry and the skinny old man had unclear intentions, the two of them had no choice. If they didn't rely on each other's strength, they would soon be besieged to death by other monsters in the water. Since there is a girl and a weakling like Lu Xiaotian, they naturally know how to choose.
Several poisonous jellyfish were very afraid of the aura emanating from the girl's side. After chasing the twin brothers for a short time, they did not dare to chase them any more. The twin brothers escaped the pursuit of the poisonous jellyfish, each carrying a thick-backed sword, one with a sun pattern on it, and the other with a moon-shaped pattern.
The two of them took action together, and a sun-shaped and a moon-shaped sword energy alternately struck at Lu Xiaotian. The two sword qi were not very powerful originally, but when they alternated, they gave people a sharp feeling that penetrated into the bone marrow. With the two complementing each other, the power exerted increased by half. In a hurry, even the late-stage foundation-building monks may not be willing to take such a blow.
