Killing God - Chapter 67

Chapter 67 Water Arrow
As the Qi Refining Realm disciples disembarked from the ship island and headed deeper into the demon island, the large ship docked beside the seaside embankment quickly quieted down. On the deck, Niu Xiong and Zeng Zhibai exchanged glances and frowned slightly. Among them, Niu Xiong, who was taller, looked towards the cabin and said with a hint of anger, “He just ignored it?”

Zeng Zhibai, who was standing beside him, had a look of disdain on his face as he coldly said, “It seems so.”

Niu Xiong gritted his teeth and spat, “There have always been dangers in hunting demons on the demon island. Senior Brother Wang Gen has warned us several times that we must secretly protect our Qi Refining junior brothers and sisters. He, Lin Hu, who is on duty on the demon island, has actually let go. Instead, he has let the two of us watch over him tirelessly.”

Zeng Zhibai sighed. He recalled that Lin Hu had just returned to his room as if he had nothing to do with himself. He clearly looked like he was letting go of the shopkeeper. He couldn’t help but shake his head.

Obviously, Niu Xiong’s temper wasn’t particularly good. He snorted and said angrily, “Why don’t the two of us go? We don’t have to help him wipe his butt every day and look at his face! If anything goes wrong on the island, Senior Brother Wang Gen will be furious and blame him. Let’s see who will be unlucky.”

Zeng Zhibai hesitated for a moment before smiling bitterly, “Forget it, forget it. That fellow is such a freak. If not for his understanding of him, Senior Brother Wang Gen would not have specially sent us here.” In short, Senior Brother Wang must know what we’ve done. Why bother fighting with him? Besides, the ones who went to the island were all junior brothers and sisters. If they were to accidentally injure the subordinates of the demonic beasts and ghosts on the island, it would not be good. ”

Niu Xiong remained silent for a moment, but he still nodded his head. Although his expression was somewhat reluctant, the overall situation was still the most important. He followed Zeng Zhibai and Zeng Zhibai out of the boat.

Both of them were direct disciples of the Ling Xiao Sect who had cultivated to the Origin Condensation Realm. His dao was far superior to those Qi Refining Realm junior brothers and sisters on the Demon Island, However, in general, Cultivators in the Origin Condensation Realm could not fly easily unless they could obtain some rare flying magic tools. The two of them were considered ordinary disciples in Lingxiao Sect. They did not have that kind of lucky chance, or they had the enormous financial resources to directly purchase one from a Chamber of Commerce like the Divine Immortal Gathering. Therefore, most of the time, they could only walk on the ground.

However, the difference in cultivation realm was still there. The two of them crossed the long seawall and arrived at the periphery of the forest. Zeng Zhibai glanced at the dense forest in front of them and said, “I think most of the people went in from here. However, there are still a few people on the periphery of the island. What should we do? Let’s go and take a look separately.”

Niu Xiong thought for a moment, but shook his head. “The outer ring of the island is only a few low-grade demonic beasts, such as the Armored Armadillo, Blue Pincer Crab, and Wind Bird. Their combat strength is average. As long as they reach the high-grade Qi Refining Realm, their physical strength can be suppressed by their spiritual energy alone. There is no need to bother looking at them.” “But the deeper the island goes, the more powerful the demonic beasts and ghosts are. I’m afraid that even the two of us will have some trouble dealing with some of them. It’s better to go inside and watch them closely.”

Zeng Zhibai nodded and said, “You’re right. Moreover, most of your junior brothers and sisters were heading towards the depths of the Demon Island just now. It’s indeed better to follow them.”

Having made up their minds, the two of them walked towards the depths of the forest. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared behind the branches and leaves in the depths of the forest, leaving behind only the long beach that had regained its calm. The seawater gently slammed against the coast. On the distant ship, a figure suddenly appeared. However, the short Lin Hu had arrived on the deck at some unknown time. After seeing Niu Xiong and Zeng Zhibai enter the depths of the demon island, he raised his eyes and looked into the depths of the demon island. Amidst the sound of the waves, there seemed to be a few more shrill cries of demon beasts coming from the depths of the island.

A strange expression flashed across Lin Hu’s face. He had a faint hint of hostility, but it quickly flashed by. After hesitating on the ship’s side for a moment, he slowly shook his head and walked back to the cabin.

④

The sound of waves echoed in Shen Shi’s ears. Along the long beach at the edge of the demon island, he had been carefully moving forward.

The vegetation on this demon island seemed particularly lush. Not to mention the dense forests on the raised hillsides, even at the edge of this island, it was mostly covered by lush forests. Only at the edge near the seaside, there were some open and blank beaches.

At this moment, Shen Shi was walking at the junction of the beach and the forest. Most of the time, he was even closer to the beach. After all, there were many branches and leaves in the forest. Who knew when a demonic beast would jump out from behind a large tree and pounce over.

After walking for a while, he gradually came to a distance from the seawall on the island. In addition, the coastline of Demon Island was not neat, and there were often abrupt curves. Therefore, at this time, Chen Shi could no longer see the large ship. On the endless beach, outside the woods, he was the only person left.

For some reason, amidst the gentle sound of the sea waves, Shen Shi suddenly felt a little dry-mouthed, and his palm seemed to be somewhat strange. He picked it up and took a look, only to discover that cold sweat had oozed out of his palm at some unknown time.

He silently wiped his hands off his clothes and calmed down. Just as he was about to continue searching for the demonic beast, he suddenly heard a low and strange cry coming from the forest about two zhang away. It was as sharp as a baby crying.

Shen Shi’s body trembled and he immediately stopped. His gaze was fixed on that place. After a moment, the vegetation in front of him started to flip, but a demonic beast walked out from under the tree in the forest.

His head was like a mouse, his entire body covered in armor. He was about five feet tall at Shen Shi’s thigh, and he had a large tail. It looked very strange. The most conspicuous part was the earthen yellow armor that was made of hard bones. It was very strong. At this moment, it circled around the beach and soon discovered Shen Shi, who was not far from it. He immediately let out a low roar and turned around, his tiny eyes shining with a vicious light.

Shen Shi swallowed his saliva and his breathing became somewhat rapid. This was the first time in his life that he had faced such a ferocious wild demonic beast. It was truly a lie to say that he wasn’t nervous. Fortunately, before coming to Demon Island, he was more or less mentally prepared for such a scene. Although he was nervous, he did not lose control in the end, and he quickly recognized the demonic beast’s origin.

To gather all kinds of spirit materials, one naturally had to know the source of the spirit materials, and one had to be familiar with the characteristics and appearances of all kinds of demonic beasts and ghosts on the Demon Island. The demonic beast in front of him was one of them.

Armored Armadillo, a First Grade demonic beast, strong and thick armor, difficult to injure with a sword or saber.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and did not move. However, his right hand was already slowly raised. At the same time, the spiritual energy in his Qi channels surged. Especially in the mysterious aperture between his eyebrows, the spiritual energy that had originally been condensed and fused suddenly activated. The water archery technique had already begun to circulate.

The Armored Armadillo was ranked very low in the Demonic Beast Tome issued by the Divine Immortal Society, It could be considered the lowest rank of ordinary demonic beasts. At the same time, it was not a ferocious demonic beast with a particularly aggressive temperament. Therefore, when they discovered that Shen Shi and the other were confronting each other, the iron-armored armadillo did not rush over to launch an attack immediately. Instead, it let out a threatening roar with the intention of scaring this weak human away.

But seeing that Shen Shi didn’t run, Instead, he stared at himself and raised his arm. As if showing some intent to attack, The Armored Armadillo was instantly enraged. No matter what, it was still a demonic beast. There was some ferocious energy in its body. It was instantly enraged by Shen Shi’s posture. With a roar, the Armored Armadillo pushed its hind legs forcefully and its huge body rushed towards Shen Shi. At the same time, it opened its large mouth, revealing its white teeth.

Just a breath later, it had already rushed out;

In two breaths of time, it had already run more than three zhang. At the same time, it saw Shen Shi’s arms shoulder-to-shoulder and five fingers stretching out.

In three breaths of time, the roar had already reached his ears, and his sharp teeth were not far away. Suddenly, a transparent stream of water about a foot long appeared in his palm.

The water is extremely gentle, changing without direction, capable of transforming everything into arrows.

In the armoured armadillo’s small eyes, he could clearly see that the stream of water had suddenly appeared in that human’s hand and was changing its shape at an extremely fast speed, as if it was being urged by a force of five elements. In the blink of an eye, it had turned into a sharp arrow aimed at him. However, with the IQ of the Armored Armadillo, the little head did not notice anything strange, nor could it see anything. At this moment, its ferocious eyes were only staring at this human, thinking that it would be able to knock him down in just a short moment, and then bite his neck off in one bite!

It pounced over, brandishing its teeth and claws, roaring furiously.

In midair, a bright light flashed, and a transparent water arrow shot out. It faintly let out a sharp howl as it rushed towards the armored armadillo.

The armoured armadillo was in mid-air. Before it could even react, it saw the transparent and sparkling water arrow suddenly arrive. In the next moment, an icy cold aura rushed into its large mouth.

“Boom!”

A deep but somewhat terrifying sound erupted from the mouth of the demonic beast. The entire body of the demonic beast was forcefully knocked back. It fell from mid-air onto the beach, and before the armadillo’s claws could cover its mouth, blood sprayed out of its mouth.

Shen Shi took a few steps back and pulled back the distance between himself and the demonic beast. At the same time, his heart beat wildly and he subconsciously began to condense the second water archery technique.

On the beach not far away, the armoured armadillo screamed and rolled twice. Then, its body began to twitch. At the same time, more and more blood flowed out of its mouth. Not long after, the demonic beast quieted down on the beach. It did not move at all. Only the blood stains dyed the sand beside it red.

Shen Shi waited for a while and slowly walked over. He tried to kick the armoured armadillo, but the armoured armadillo did not react at all.

Shen Shi heaved a sigh of relief. It was only at this moment that he felt his body suddenly weaken. The brief battle just now had brought life and death. It was truly an experience he had never experienced before. Looking at the sharp teeth and slender sharp claws of the armoured armadillo, as long as he called out to him, it would definitely be the result of flesh being torn apart.

He slowly squatted down and touched the armoured armadillo’s earthen yellow leather armor. His tentacles were rough and hard. This kind of demonic beast’s bone armor was as hard as steel, and ordinary swords could not be cut at all. Even if he had cultivated for three years and reached the middle stage of the Qi Refining Realm, he might not be able to defeat it in a melee.

However, a single water archery shot into the weakest mouth of the demonic beast’s body ended all of this.
