Stepping into the gathering place of the middle-rank spirit beasts once again, Ling Aoran was not as cautious as he was last time. Instead, he boldly and quickly advanced because he had a life-saving method. Anyway, he had already learned the Jade Waves Treading the Moon. If he encountered a spirit beast that he could not defeat, he could still escape.
Ling Aoran didn't encounter any spirit beasts along the way as he walked deeper into the forest. The surroundings were eerily quiet. After passing through a flat mountain, Ling Aoran came to a large lake. This lake was not as clear as the beautiful lake in Heaven Basin. Instead, it was slightly turbid. One could vaguely see some stains and the remains of some spiritual beasts floating on the surface of the lake.
Silence. It was extremely quiet. This strange environment made Ling Aoran's hair stand on end. Because this place was really too quiet, Ling Aoran actually did not feel the energy fluctuations of a spirit beast nearby. Logically speaking, no matter how unbearable the lake was, there should be some spirit beasts moving around. After all, living creatures needed water to provide them with water. However, there was clearly a lake here, but there was not even a single spirit beast. This was too strange, too strange.
"Could it be that they just left for lunch break?”As soon as this thought appeared, it was immediately rejected by Ling Aoran. What a joke, even if spirit beasts were to take an afternoon nap, they wouldn't need to move their entire clan. " What's going on…" He lowered his head and thought for a while. Then, he looked around, but he did not find anything unusual. Ling Aoran could only shake his head helplessly and was about to leave for a place with spirit beasts.
Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!
Just as Ling Aoran was about to turn around and leave. All of a sudden, round bubbles began to rise from the surface of the lake. White mist was constantly rising from the surface of the bubbles, making a bubbling sound as if hot water was boiling. Immediately, the area of the bubbles began to expand…
"What happened? Could it be that the problem here was in this lake? Could it be that there's an extremely powerful spirit beast in the lake? Humph, humph, this is exactly what I want! In any case, there were no spirit beasts disturbing them in the vicinity. If there really was a powerful spirit beast in this lake, then ~~~ they would fight to their heart's content!”
Ling Aoran immediately gave up on leaving out of curiosity. Ling Aoran was currently in such a state of mind. Because of his confidence, Ling Aoran's desire to fight was outlined, and his blood was also boiling in excitement. In Ling Aoran's mind, he had the first style of the Three Savage Styles,'Mountain Crushing and Earth Splitting' in battle! It was a strength-type attack with extremely high lethality. Even if he couldn't win, he had Jade Waves Treading the Moon to escape, so why would he be afraid of him…
Just as Ling Aoran's imagination was running wild, the bubble continued to extend. It didn't take long. When Ling Aoran woke up from the hot blood, the area of the bubbles had expanded to a radius of more than 50 meters. Seeing this huge area, Ling Aoran subconsciously took a few steps back to stay away from the lake. At this moment…
Puff! Puff!
Suddenly, eight tentacles emerged from the surface of the lake, covering a radius of 100 meters. The tentacles continued to extend upward until they were about 60 to 70 meters away from the surface of the lake. They kept swinging in the air, looking extremely shocking.
"What is this? Octopus monster? But how could it be so big? Heavens, even its head hadn't appeared yet, and it was already so big that it was shocking. If it all appeared, how big would it be?! God, you don't have to play with me like this. It's not easy to have a chance to fight a spirit beast, but you sent me such a big guy! Moreover, it's still in the water. What's the use of my Jade Waves on the Moon?"
Ling Aoran was now considering whether to escape before it attacked him. After all, this monster was too huge. The tail of its tentacles was as thick as an adult. Looking at the sound of the tentacles in the air, it could be seen how powerful the tentacles were.
Ling Aoran estimated that this hydra was at least at the peak of the intermediate advanced stage. Otherwise, it would not be so fierce. Just looking at its size was enough to scare a group of spirit beasts silly. No wonder there were no spirit beasts around. It turned out that this was this guy's territory.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, in the middle of the eight tentacles, the lake water gradually swelled up like waves, and the ripples spread out in all directions. Not long after, a bald head popped out, causing water to splash everywhere.
'Wu'~~~~
An extremely dull sound was heard. When Ling Aoran saw the monster that emerged from the water, he was instantly dumbfounded! "Octopus! Oh, God! It was really an octopus! I didn't see wrongly, right? This is actually true ~~ I say, brother, you didn't transmigrate too, did you?”Ling Aoran exclaimed in disbelief. This was because the octopus he saw looked exactly the same as the octopus in his previous world. It was just that it was several times larger now.
"Human! You actually dare to trespass on my territory. How dare you! This is unforgivable!”The octopus monster's deep and loud voice sounded.
Hearing that this octopus could actually speak human language, Ling Aoran was so surprised that he could not even close his mouth. His mouth was wide open, and his face was blank. "You…you can…you can talk!!”Ling Aoran felt that his head was a little dizzy now. This was too ridiculous. A spiritual beast that could speak was at least a high-level one. Heavens, he actually encountered an existence above the Space-Breaking Realm! Was this the so-called bad start…
Hearing Ling Aoran's question, the octopus monster made a very human-like expression and rolled its eyes! The octopus snorted disdainfully and said arrogantly,"Foolish humans! Of course, the great Brother Octopus could speak. Brother Octopus had lived here for nearly ten thousand years. It was not strange that he could speak human language. Human, please explain your invasion. Otherwise, prepare to receive Brother Octopus's furious punishment! Wu ~~~~"
Hearing the octopus monster's words, Ling Aoran's heart thumped. After living here for nearly ten thousand years, it seemed that this guy really had some skills. If he couldn't fight with his strength, then he would just use his wits. Ling Aoran's eyes turned, and a plan came to mind. "Oh ~~ Brother Octopus, please forgive me for coming to visit. I heard from the spirit beast closest to this place that a tall, mighty, handsome, and strangely handsome man lives here all year round. Therefore, out of admiration, I came uninvited. Please forgive me, Brother Octopus.”Ling Aoran said without blinking, his face full of sincerity. If someone who didn't know saw it, they would think that he meant every word he said.
"Oh, there's actually such a thing!" When the octopus monster heard this, its two round eyes immediately lit up like light bulbs that were magnified countless times. It looked excited and asked hurriedly,"Did they really say that? Was Brother Octopus really the handsome man they were talking about?”
Seeing that it was so easy to fool, Ling Aoran secretly heaved a sigh of relief. As expected, flattery could not penetrate. "Of course. I came here after hearing the news. My admiration for Brother Octopus is like a surging river, endless, and unstoppable!”Ling Aoran's face was full of admiration, but he was laughing in his heart. This Master Xing's lines were really f * cking useful.
'Wu wu...!'
The octopus monster was very pleased with Ling Aoran's words. At this moment, the octopus monster was very happy to be praised by Ling Aoran. Its eight tentacles danced wildly in the sky, bringing up whirlwinds in the surroundings. Waves that were dozens of meters high also rose on the surface of the lake, pushing towards Ling Aoran who was standing on the shore like a surging flood.
Looking at the waves that the octopus monster had unintentionally raised, Ling Aoran felt helpless. He thought to himself," It's troublesome to be big. It makes such a big commotion at the drop of a hat. How can I let it go? It won't be fun if this momentum hits me." Seeing that the huge tsunami was already not far away from him, Ling Aoran did not dare to be negligent. He hurriedly circulated the Jade Wave Moon Step and quickly left the range of the wave.
Whoosh! A huge wave came crashing down and slammed into the shore of the lake with a loud bang. Instantly, water splashed everywhere. Many trees as thick as a person's thigh were broken, and the originally hard and flat ground instantly caved in. Ling Aoran, who was watching from afar, felt his heart palpitate. If this hit his body, no matter how strong his physical body was, he would lose a layer of skin…
"Hey ~~~! I say, Brother Octopus, are you trying to murder me? I'm your loyal fan! If I hadn't run so fast, I would have become fertilizer…"
Ling Aoran rushed to the front of the octopus monster with a face full of grief and indignation. He pointed at the octopus monster's face and cursed. Ling Aoran was very dissatisfied with the octopus monster's sudden attack. Facing Ling Aoran's criticism, the octopus monster knew that it had almost killed an innocent life because of its excitement. It could only accept Ling Aoran's criticism guiltily.
After a few hours of interaction, the relationship between the man and the monster gradually deepened. There was even a feeling of 'appreciation' for each other! The more Ling Aoran understood, the more he realized that this octopus was not a type of spirit beast, but a creature from the bottom of the sea. As for why it had been here for nearly ten thousand years, it did not know. Although it was not a spirit beast, its strength was comparable to a high-level spirit beast. In the past few thousand years, there would often be some blind spirit beasts that came to its territory to look for food or rest, but they were all turned into its own feces by the octopus monster. There was no lack of mid-level high-level spirit beasts among them.
"Hehe! Little human, Brother Octopus hadn't been as happy as he was today for a long time! In order to thank you, I want to give you a gift to show Brother Octopus's sincerity.”Seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, the octopus monster planned to return to the bottom of the lake to rest. It spat out a gray pearl the size of a fist from its mouth and handed it to Ling Aoran.
Ling Aoran, who was sitting on one of the octopus monster's tentacles, saw that it actually wanted to give him a gift. He curiously took the gray bead and examined it. He did not feel that there was anything special about this bead. Instead, it was very similar to the spiritual bead in his dantian.
"Brother Octopus, what's the use of this bead?”After looking for a long time, Ling Aoran couldn't figure it out, so he looked at the octopus monster with a puzzled gaze.
"Hoho ~ I don't know! I accidentally saw this bead thousands of years ago. At that time, I saw it shining and collected it. Do you like it? This pearl is one of my favorite treasures. If I didn't feel that I get along well with you, I wouldn't be willing to give it to you.”The octopus rubbed its smooth head with its thick tentacles and said reluctantly.
Ling Aoran was speechless when he heard that. He thought to himself,'You don't know what this bead is used for. What kind of treasure are you treating it as?!' You even gave it to me! How dare you take out a broken pearl ~~~
Of course, although Ling Aoran thought that way, he still had a happy expression on his face as he thanked her,""I like it. Thank you, Brother Octopus, for giving me such a 'precious' gift. I'm so...'happy'!”Ling Aoran's face was full of sincerity as he touched his conscience and lied. After all, this was also a kind gesture from the other party. Ling Aoran naturally could not hurt the octopus monster's 'young' heart. Otherwise, it would be too inhumane.
"Alright, little human, the great Brother Octopus needs to rest. Come and see me when you have time, understand? Goodbye…Oh!" He gently placed Ling Aoran on the shore and called out to him. The octopus monster slowly sank to the bottom of the lake and went to sleep.
Seeing that the octopus monster had disappeared into the lake, Ling Aoran casually threw the gray bead into his storage ring, turned around, and walked towards the dense forest. After wasting so much time, Ling Aoran still had to find his opponent…
