OBS Chapter 379 Loach
Chapter 379 Loach
With Wei Lin leading the way, the pressure on everyone was greatly reduced. They cooperated with each other and quickly cleared a path.
But there were too many of them, and everyone didn't know how long they had been killing or how far they had run, and they all felt that all their spiritual energy was exhausted.
People were panting with exhaustion, and those with weaker cultivation felt their fingers holding the swords trembling, and they could hardly even lift their arms.
Fortunately, after running out of this muddy area, everyone saw that these long tails gradually became fewer, and in front of them, a dark cloud suddenly appeared.
"Look, what is that?"
Someone pointed that way.
Everyone looked over and saw that it was pitch black in front of them, with thick dark clouds pressing down, as if blocking the air.
The dark cloud was boundless and blocked their way right in front of them.
Everyone hesitated, not knowing whether they should go over, but they soon discovered that as they approached the dark cloud, Changwei began to shrink back, as if he had encountered something terrifying.
The crowd had no choice but to run over there.
When they got closer, they could see clearly that it was not a "dark cloud" but a huge dark forest.
The dense, thick and tall branches and leaves intertwined together to form a "sky" that covered the sky.
The tree trunks were pitch black, and even the leaves were stained with ink, leaving that area without a single ray of light. The darkness was filled with an ominous feeling.
The people became more and more frightened as they walked. Although everything was calm here and even Longtail didn't dare to come over, they just felt that there was something terrifying watching them in the woods.
The crowd was afraid to go over, but as soon as they stopped, those long tails appeared and drove them into the woods as if they were chasing away insects.
Wei Lin couldn't protect so many people, and he didn't want to protect them either. He only killed the long tails around him.
The others still had to save themselves, but most of them had exhausted their spiritual power. A sturdy man was about to be blown up by the tail, so he didn't care about anything else and crawled into the black forest.
I thought there was some terrible horror in the forest, but after the man went in, everything was calm and there was nothing there.
The man was stunned for a moment, then suddenly overjoyed. Seeing that even the long tail chasing him had retracted, he hurriedly shouted, "Come in quickly, you can hide inside!"
In fact, he didn't need to say anything, many people were forced into the woods, and when they saw nothing was happening, they all called outside.
The rest of the people couldn't wait to get in.
Lu Yan was also extremely tired. Although her spiritual energy reserves were much deeper than others, she could not withstand too many of these ghost things!
Seeing that everyone else was fine after going in, she pulled Gu Lingxue, and the two sisters jumped in one after the other.
Wei Feng and the people who were left behind also came in, followed by a small spider the size of a thumb.
The little spider moved its eight legs quickly, following behind the crowd.
This is naturally Meng Tianshui who inherited the water.
He has the advantage of bloodline and can transform into an eight-legged demon spider. Just now, everyone was dealing with the long tail, but only he turned into a small spider and was able to crawl through the gaps in the long tail.
The thing was too huge and posed no threat to a small spider like him, so he followed it here easily.
As soon as they entered the woods, the long tails stopped at the edge of the woods, wagging their tail tips, as if they were looking inside but did not dare to come in.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground one after another. They didn't even bother to pick up the fallen magic weapons and leaned against the trees to catch their breath and rest.
"What the hell is this?"
People were talking about it, but no one dared to go out and take a look.
The main reason is that this thing is too terrifying and cannot be killed, and many people died along the way.
When they fell from the temple, there were more than a hundred of them, but now only a small half are left.
You have to know that they are considered the elites of each faction, but they suffered such heavy losses. It shows how terrifying this thing is!
The key point is that they can't even see the whole picture of this thing, they can only see its long "tail".
Lu Yan was also thinking about what this thing was. She thought about all the books in the Ten Direction Sect's Sutra Library in her mind, and suddenly remembered what was recorded in a strange article:
There is a beast in the wilderness called the loach. It is a thousand feet long, covered with scales, has a violent temperament, and likes to live under the mud and feed on the flesh and blood of living creatures.
It is said that the loach has nine heads and a long, sharp tail with sharp spines. When the loach hunts, it likes to hold its tail upright to strangle its prey.
The innate magical power of this clan is that they can transform into a thousand tails, making them extremely difficult to kill...
"It's a loach!"
Lu Yan and Gu Lingxue beside her blurted out at the same time.
The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Gu Lingxue said, "You thought of it too? That's right, it's the loach!
I've seen it in the sect's records. This thing looks like a giant loach, except it has eight heads. But it likes to bury its head in the mud with its tail sticking out!
And the large number of tails just now was probably due to its illusionary magic, so it couldn’t be cleared away…”
"That's right," Lu Yan nodded, "but it is said that the loach lives in the desolate sea, how come it appears here?"
Gu Lingxue said, "I don't know about that..."
The two were talking when someone nearby heard them and asked, "What is the weakness of this thing? How can we kill it?"
It was obvious that none of them could get out unless they killed the loach. They couldn't be trapped to death in this woods!
Lu Yan shook her head and said, "Can't be killed!"
"What?" the man asked anxiously.
Gu Lingxue explained, "All those tails just now were illusions. Only by finding the true form of the loach can we kill it!"
This mud sea is so vast, and this loach can transform into so many tails, so its real body must be very huge. It is a fantasy to think that they can kill it!
Hearing this, everyone around was in disbelief.
So they are really going to be trapped here?
Wei Feng, who had been listening at the side, also frowned and said, "That's right, not to mention that the loach's body is hard to find, and its magical power is so huge, it must be at least an eighth-level monster. We can't defeat it!"
Everyone gasped when they heard about the eighth-level monster.
Wei Feng and Gu Lingxue are both disciples of the Holy Light Sect Master, and they are at the top of the Human Race’s Prodigy List. No one can disbelieve what they say!
A young girl started crying on the spot and said, "What should we do? Are we going to be trapped here and die?"
Even those who can get here must be people with outstanding cultivation and luck.
But after entering the Scarlet Flame Sea, they have been faced with one dangerous and high-intensity battle after another. Not only has they not gained the inheritance of the temple, but they may also be trapped and die here. Those with weaker mentalities could not help but collapse.
Seeing that everyone was beginning to feel frustrated and discouraged, Wei Feng said in a deep voice, "Don't worry! Let's take a break first and then explore the forest. Maybe we can go through from the other side!"
His voice was gentle, and his jade-like face shone brightly in the darkness, quickly calming people's fear and anxiety.
In this situation, he became the backbone of the group, and everyone immediately responded, "Okay, we will all listen to Senior Brother Wei!"
People gathered in twos and threes to rest.
Because they had to rely on Wei Feng, everyone consciously stayed away from Wei Lin, even though all of them had relied on him to get here and save their lives just now.
Wei Lin snorted and sat alone behind a tree.
He half-bent his legs, and the red robe on his body was almost torn into pieces. He simply tore it off, revealing a black corset underneath.
