Chapter 343: Fighting the Stinging Mother Beast
Song Wen and Rong Jingyun each swore a soul oath.
Song Wen would not reveal Rong Jingyun's transformation of her husband into a zombie, or the Barrier Breaking Pill.
Rong Jingyun would not reveal Song Wen's cultivation strength, or the Cold Pond Karst Cave.
Then.
Under Rong Jingyun's leadership, the two came to an underwater fork they had passed before.
Rong Jingyun pointed to a dark passage with surging rapids.
"Follow this dark passage, keep going forward, and after more than a hundred miles, you will reach the Cold Pond Karst Cave."
As he spoke, Rong Jingyun handed Song Wen a jade slip.
"In this jade slip, there is a route map I drew based on my memory. If you encounter a fork in the road, you can follow the route on the map."
Song Wen took the jade slip, "Thank you."
Rong Jingyun said, "Elder Wu, the Zhemu beast is very powerful. Jiehui and the other two have not been able to defeat it. Are you sure you can kill it? Although the Yin-Yang Blood-Crying Branch is precious, it is not only found in that cave. The two of us can work together to search in the underground river. Maybe we can get one or two without taking risks."
Song Wen said, "Thank you for your kindness, Elder Rong. I I still want to give it a try. Even if I am not a match for the mother beast, I can still protect myself. "
Rong Jingyun said, "Then I wish you a smooth trip. You and I are in trouble. From now on, if I meet in the secret realm, I hope Elder Wu will not hesitate to help me. "
Song Wen said, "Elder Rong, don't worry. As long as it does not endanger my safety, I will definitely help. If I am in trouble, I also hope that Elder Rong can help me a little. "
Rong Jingyun smiled and said, "Of course."
Song Wen said goodbye and turned to go into the underwater secret passage.
Rong Jingyun turned around and returned to the cave where she killed the burrowing beast.
She was seriously injured, and this place was just right for healing.
......
Song Wen sneaked in the underwater secret passage, very carefully.
Rong Jingyun mentioned that she had encountered three underwater monsters in the secret passage.
Song Wen was lucky. He only encountered a fish monster in the early stage of the second stage.
He released all the aura of his cultivation without reservation.
The powerful aura of the late stage of foundation building scared the fish monster away as soon as it was released.
When fighting with monsters in the water, the blood flowing from the monsters would flow downstream, which might attract other monsters in the water.
Song Wen was unwilling to fight monsters in the water unless necessary.
Half an hour later, Song Wen was less than a mile away from the cold pond cave.
The tentacles of the stinging mother beast were three or four miles long and transparent, making them difficult to detect. Song Wen had to be careful.
The six holy armor Gu slowly explored along the secret passage, almost inch by inch, to ensure that the tentacles of the stinging mother beast did not extend into the secret passage.
Fortunately, the holy armor Gu walked out of the secret passage and came to the cold pond cave, and did not find any traces of the stinging mother beast.
Song Wen restrained his breath and slowly went upstream. Avoid alarming the stinging mother beast.
The secret passage was narrow and underwater, so Song Wen's many methods were not easy to use.
It was not wise to fight with the stinging mother beast in the water.
Following the secret passage, he came to the cave, and Song Wen emerged from the water and slowly walked up to the river bank.
Relying on the memory from Jie Hui's mind, and with six holy armored Gu clearing the way around, Song Wen groped forward in the darkness, slowly approaching the Yin-Yang Weeping Blood Branch.
The cave was rugged and uneven, with stalagmites and pits everywhere. In order to avoid alarming the stinging mother beast, Song Wen did not use any spiritual power, and walked slowly, one deep and one shallow, very slowly.
It took a cup of tea, and Song Wen finally arrived, a mile away from the Yin-Yang Weeping Blood Branch.
According to the news sent back by the holy armored Gu, there was indeed a 500-year-old Yin-Yang Weeping Blood Branch growing in a cluster of stalagmites.
But the holy armored Gu still did not find any traces of the stinging mother beast.
The stinging mother beast disappeared, and Song Wen no longer waited. He let the two holy armored Gu sneak over and prepared to steal the Yin-Yang Weeping Blood Branch without alarming the stinging mother beast.
When the holy armored Gu was still three feet away from the Yin-Yang Weeping Blood Branch, a slender tentacle suddenly broke through the water and lashed at the two holy armored Gu fiercely.
The tentacle was extremely fast, like a long whip, breaking through the air with a piercing whistle.
The holy armored Gu did not dare to fight, and it was too late to retreat. They quickly flew to the ground below.
There were countless pits of different sizes on the ground of the cave, which was just right for avoiding the attack of the tentacles.
"Bang!"
The tentacles hit the ground fiercely.
Stones flew.
A large number of stalagmites were broken.
The ground was also smashed and collapsed.
The two holy armored Gu hid in the cracks of the rocks in time and avoided the full-strength attack of the stinging mother beast.
Seeing this, Song Wen, who was a mile away, no longer hid his figure.
Since the attempt to steal the Yin-Yang Blood-Crying Branch failed, the only way left was to attack violently.
Two ghosts and three corpses, five figures appeared beside Song Wen.
The silver corpse had thick skin and flesh, and took the lead.
Following closely behind were two bronze corpses at the peak of the second level.
The ghost king held a ghost knife and followed behind the two bronze corpses.
The red-haired ghost general, the weakest, held the eight-flag ghost banner and walked at the end.
The silver corpse first fought with the stinging mother beast.
One of the eight tentacles of the stinging mother beast hit the silver corpse.
Instead of being hit and flying, the silver corpse took advantage of the situation and wrapped its arms around the slimy tentacles.
The tentacles wanted to wrap around the silver corpse.
But the silver corpse grabbed it with one claw, cut off the extra tentacles, leaving only the part it was holding.
The silver corpse dragged the tentacles and walked backwards, trying to drag the stinging mother beast out of the river.
It was extremely powerful, and every step it took crushed the rocky ground.
The slender tentacles were pulled straight, as if they would break at any time.
The stinging mother beast was a water-based monster, and it could only exert its strongest strength in the water. Naturally, it was unwilling to be easily dragged out of the water.
Its other seven tentacles whipped at the silver corpse.
The two bronze corpses guarded the right side of the silver corpse to block the tentacles that were pulled out one after another.
The ghost king protected the left side of the silver corpse and kept waving the ghost sword in his hand.
All the tentacles that were pulled out were cut off one by one by the ghost king.
Three of the tentacles of the stinging mother beast were cut off many times by the ghost king from the original length of more than three miles, leaving only one mile long.
Slowly, the huge body of the stinging mother beast hidden under the river was dragged out of the water and came to the shore.
Perhaps sensing the deadly danger, the stinging mother beast actually cut off its limbs to survive, and took the initiative to cut off the tentacle that was grabbed by the silver corpse.
The silver corpse, who was pulling the tentacle forward with all his strength, lost all resistance on his body, and his body became unstable, rolling out like a rolling gourd.
The stinging mother beast moved its body and immediately wanted to escape back into the water.
Song Wen, who had been preparing for a long time, could not do as it wished.
Silver lightning as thick as a bucket fell from the sky.
The soul-splitting blade, which had never been used since it was obtained, flashed with a cold light and shot out.
"Boom!"
The thunder came first and fell on the stinging mother beast.
The dazzling lightning flashed in the darkness, illuminating everything in the cave.
The stinging mother beast's skin and flesh were torn apart, and the minced meat flew around.
The lightning raged on its body, making its movement to escape into the water slow down a bit.
The cold light suddenly appeared.
The soul-splitting blade came to kill.
Just as it was about to penetrate the body of the stinging mother beast, it was blocked by a scarred tentacle.
The tentacle was almost broken at the root, but the stinging mother beast also avoided the fate of being disemboweled.
