Chapter 118 A Moment of Crisis!
Chapter 118 A Moment of Crisis!
The two women reacted quickly after hearing Lin Que's shout.
He immediately moved to a safe place and assumed a defensive stance, looking at Lin Que as if asking what was going on.
But the next moment!
They got the answer they wanted.
At the top of the towering tree, a huge black shadow swooped down towards the densely populated area as if night had fallen instantly.
"Boom~!"
Before anyone could react, the enormous black shadow charged into the crowd at incredible speed, sending some of the cultivators flying.
The cultivators who had been blasted away all looked terrified as they plummeted towards the foot of the towering tree.
But it wasn't over yet. The huge black shadow rose up again and launched an attack on the crowd that it had knocked into the air.
"what!!!"
"Help...help me!!!"
"Pfft~!"
"..."
Those cultivators who were attacked in mid-air cried out and begged for help.
However, it had no effect. The huge black shadow arrived suddenly like a black lightning bolt, and the cultivators moved back and forth in mid-air!
The poor cultivators were torn to shreds in mid-air before they even hit the ground!
Finally, it turned into specks of blood raining down.
"what!"
"What...what is that?!"
"Could it be... a ferocious beast?!"
The remaining cultivators who hadn't been attacked stared blankly at the scene unfolding in mid-air, all trembling with terror...
After killing the cultivators, the enormous black shadow hovered in the void.
As the shadowy figure gradually came into focus, it became clearer to everyone.
It turned out to be a ferocious beast resembling a giant black mantis, with two enormous curved arms that gleamed with a chilling light.
After killing those cultivators, it remained completely untouched by blood.
Its red eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty light as it stared intently at the remaining cultivators on the tree trunk.
Strangely, it did not launch a second attack.
This gave everyone a chance to catch their breath, but they still dared not be careless.
Fortunately, Lin Qing'er and Fairy Cai Li were reminded in time by Lin Que.
Neither of them were affected in any way.
Lin Qing'er looked at Lin Que, her alluring eyes flashing with a strange light, and in the end she couldn't resist.
He called out, "Tell me quickly, little brother Lin!"
"How did you know in advance? It was like this under the tree, and it was still like this on the tree."
"Even your older sister didn't sense it, but you knew in advance, little brother."
"This is making me more and more curious!"
"Little Lin, are you going to tell me or not?"
"If you don't tell me, I'm going to get angry!"
Lin Que did not answer, but frowned as he looked at the mantis-like beast in the void, muttering, "What kind of beast is this?"
"A cultivator who can easily kill a cultivator at the Sea of Life Realm must be of a high level."
Seeing that Lin Que did not respond, Lin Qing'er's face instantly turned extremely gloomy. She leaned close to Lin Que's ear and said fiercely, "Are you going to talk or not?"
"Believe me or not, once I leave the secret realm, I'll immediately hand you over to Zhao Changyun!"
"Don't make trouble!"
"Let's think about what to do first."
Lin Que was still frowning as he stared at the mantis beast when he pushed Lin Qing'er away.
Seeing that she had been pushed away so rudely, Lin Qing'er instantly transformed into a pitiful figure, sobbing, "Waaah~!"
"Brother Lin, how...how could you bully such a weak woman?!"
It seems that Lin Que has become accustomed to Lin Qing'er's unpredictable mood swings and ever-changing expressions.
If a late-stage Golden Core cultivator can be called a weak woman, then there are probably very few strong people in the world.
Knew it!
The Demonic Path is truly a demonic path; it's incredibly torturous...
At this moment, Fairy Cai Li also walked over, looked at the ferocious beast and pondered for a moment.
He said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a seventh-tier ferocious beast!"
"Its name is: Void Mantis!"
Lin Que asked, "Are you sure?"
"Seventh-tier ferocious beasts are no joke; they are comparable to the peak of the Golden Core stage!"
Lin Que was also very curious about Fairy Cai Li's breadth of knowledge; it seemed quite extensive.
However, he didn't ask, as if he had his own secrets.
"Hiss! It's actually a seventh-tier ferocious beast!"
The surrounding cultivators, upon hearing their conversation, all gasped in shock and began to whisper amongst themselves...
"What...what kind of secret realm is this?!"
"This is...this is terrifying!"
"We cultivators at the Sea of Life realm are no match for seventh-tier ferocious beasts."
"..."
"Does it have anything... Never mind!"
"Run!"
Just as Lin Que was about to ask if there were any weaknesses, he immediately sensed that the Void Mantis was preparing to launch a second attack.
He couldn't care less about anything else and hurriedly told the two women to run ahead.
As soon as she said those words, Lin Qing'er immediately returned to her normal self.
He took the lead and charged forward.
Lin Que and Fairy Cai Li followed behind Lin Qing'er, speeding up their run together.
Everyone stared blankly as the three disappeared into the distance, barely able to react.
But soon some people realized what was happening.
He immediately ran towards the top of the tree.
Those who haven't come to their senses yet are in big trouble!
"Boom~!"
After a loud bang, another group of people were sent flying.
"what!!!"
"Help!!!"
Unfortunately, no one dared to turn back to save them. For those at the Sea of Life Realm, being able to protect themselves and escape in the face of a seventh-tier ferocious beast was already quite an achievement.
To still think about saving people? That's insane!
Especially when rescuing someone in the Void environment, which is most favorable to Void Mantis.
That's nothing short of wishful thinking!
Unlike the first time, the Void Mantis didn't linger after its second attack.
Instead, they launched a series of attacks on the crowd.
Many perish during the race, and the survivors can only continue forward with a glimmer of hope.
No one wanted to rebel, and no one dared to rebel!
"Haha, get out of the way!"
"Anyone who doesn't want to die, get out of my way!"
Lin Qing'er ran ahead at lightning speed, and without saying a word, she simply raised her hand and sent anyone who blocked her way flying.
Show no mercy whatsoever!
Some cultivators were even thrown into the void by her and fell towards the bottom of the tree.
really!
Their methods are exactly like those of a demonic sect, showing no regard for the safety of others.
However, Lin Que didn't say anything about it, because if it were him, he would do the same if he really had no other choice.
After all, saving his life is the most important thing right now. He doesn't want to die here for no reason. Since someone is going to play the villain, Lin Que is naturally happy to see it!
In this treacherous world, it's always better to sacrifice your fellow practitioners than yourself!
Similarly, Fairy Cai Li merely frowned but said nothing.
Just as Lin Que was leisurely running behind Lin Qing'er.
All of a sudden!
A chill ran down my spine.
Lin Que's eyes widened, his dark pupils dilating instantly as he looked upwards.
A second Void Mantis appeared above his head.
And this time, it actually pounced on him!
Oops!
Now it seems there's no way to escape!
"Lin Que! Watch out!!!"
