Lu Ping's peaceful cultivation life was soon disrupted.
About a month later, some fishermen reported to Lu Ping that fifty miles south of Huang Li Island, the fishermen had spotted a sea beast that was more than ten feet long swimming in the sea. Recently, the fishermen on Huang Li Island did not dare to fish in that area.
Fifty miles south is the island where Sheng Tao's cave abode is located.
Lu Ping's heart skipped a beat. It seems like this sea snake has sensed something.
When Master Immortal Liu gave him the mission, Lu Ping suspected that this sea snake was the companion or companion of the previous sea snake.
Now, the fishermen's report confirmed Lu Ping's guess. This sea snake must have some kind of secret technique that allowed it to track the location of the previous sea snake and discover where it died.
Lu Ping carefully recalled what happened in Sheng Tao's cave abode and confirmed that he did not leave any clues behind.
Fortunately, this sea snake appeared and fought with Qiao Xipeng, who was investigating the cause of his brother's death. This inadvertently confirmed the theory that the Xuan Ling Sect disciple was killed by the sea snake.
The Qiao Family cultivators had already given up on investigating Qiao Xixian's death and focused on killing the sea snake. This inadvertently allowed Lu Ping to escape the Qiao Family's suspicion.
The next day, Lu Ping went to the island and placed two sets of warning talismans around the island to monitor the sea snake that might appear in this area.
In fact, Lu Ping was secretly hoping for a fluke.
Maybe I can kill this Sea Snake Demon here!
This was not impossible. Lu Ping had already learned from Master Immortal Liu that this sea snake had been severely injured by the Qiao Family cultivators. For this, the Qiao Family had paid the price of one dead and one injured.
This sea snake was at most on par with the one from last time. Last time, he was able to kill a severely injured sea snake demon in a hurry. This time, it was also a severely injured sea snake demon. If he was unprepared, he would definitely be able to kill it.
Moreover, compared to a few months ago, whether it was his cultivation or magic tools, he had made significant progress. Not to mention that he still had a talisman treasure as a trump card.
Previously, after Lu Ping killed the Blood Condensation Realm sea snake demon, he obtained a huge benefit. This time, Lu Ping subconsciously didn't want the sect's elders to get their hands on these benefits.
After placing dozens of Landmine Talismans on the island, Lu Ping began to wait for the hare to come to him.
Half a day later, when Lu Ping was still paying attention to the sea surface three to four thousand feet away, a long, sad and angry howl suddenly came from the sea surface several miles away from the island.
Then, Lu Ping suddenly felt his whole body tense up, as if cold water had been poured over him from head to toe. The Spirit Sealing Talisman and Invisibility Talisman suddenly became useless.
The sea serpent had arrived!
Lu Ping was shocked and angry at the same time. The sea serpent seemed to have calculated his location. He saw a long white wave rising from the sea surface, heading straight in his direction. The warning talismans that he placed on the sea surface earlier suddenly became useless.
Lu Ping suddenly came to a realization. This sea snake demon was able to track the dead sea snake demon all the way here. He had personally skinned the dead sea snake demon, so this sea snake demon would naturally be able to recognize him as the murderer.
Lu Ping didn't have the time to regret now. The hundred-foot-long sea snake monster raised its huge head high and glared at Lu Ping with a cold glint in its eyes.
Although Lu Ping had a few ways to escape, it wasn't easy for him to come across one. He didn't plan on running away without a fight. No matter what, he had to weigh his options.
Moreover, he had experience fighting against Blood Condensation Realm experts.
More importantly, Lu Ping noticed that the aura of this heavily injured sea snake demon was not as strong as the previous one. This was a Level 3 Blood Condensation Realm demonic beast. Although it had broken through his previous series of traps, Lu Ping still had a chance.
A black stone tower rose up and circled above Lu Ping's head. Yellow light screens extended and extended from the eaves of the tower, as if they would fall down at any time, protecting Lu Ping within.
Lu Ping held the flying sword in his hand and faced the approaching sea snake demon.
The sea snake demon's angry roars did not turn into attacks. This was a demonic beast that was so calm that it made Lu Ping's heart palpitate.
A huge pressure rushed towards Lu Ping. The sea snake's divine sense penetrated Lu Ping's body like water, as if it was trying to see through all of his secrets.
The restless magic power finally burst out. Clumps of seawater unimaginably flowed upward, forming a thick and transparent wall of water in front of the sea snake monster. The sea snake monster's figure was faintly discernible on the other side of the wall of water.
Lu Ping's expression finally changed. He retreated without hesitation.
However, it was too late. The towering water wall collapsed, and a huge wave came crashing towards Lu Ping.
Lu Ping, who had nowhere to retreat, had no choice but to defend the stone tower on the reef. He allowed the waves to hit him, but the price he had to pay was that Lu Ping's arcane energy flowed into the stone tower like water.
Even though the stone tower was faintly discernible in the waves, it still stood tall. This surprised the sea snake demon. A human cultivator in the Blood Refining Realm had such a strong arcane energy.
Lu Ping was already regretting his carelessness. The last thing he wanted was to face a situation where arcane energy was the deciding factor. However, the sea snake demon seemed to have seen through Lu Ping's intentions. It immediately attacked with a large area of effect, making it impossible for Lu Ping to dodge.
Under the swaying stone tower in the huge waves, a sword light flashed like a waterfall, shooting in the direction of the sea snake demon. The waves along the way were split apart by the surging magic power.
Lu Ping had to change the current battle of attrition, so he chose to attack.
A trace of contempt flashed across the sea snake demon's eyes. However, the power contained in the Flying Swallow Sword made it turn serious.
Could it be that this human cultivator really killed its partner?
Impossible. Although this human cultivator was in the Blood Refining Realm, he was still far from being able to kill its Fourth Layer Blood Condensation Realm partner. This human cultivator must have seen its partner's corpse before, or he was an accomplice of the Blood Condensation Realm human cultivator who killed its partner.
In any case, this human cultivator had to use his life as a sacrifice for its partner.
A wave of seawater soared into the sky and turned into a water sword. It collided with the Flying Swallow Sword. Chi! The water sword was shattered, and the Flying Swallow Sword returned to its original position.
Lu Ping initially hoped that the attack would distract the sea snake monster, lessening the pressure on him and allowing him to escape from the waves' onslaught.
However, the sea snake demon's control of water was extraordinary. Its arcane energy in the Blood Condensation Realm was also incomparable to that of a Blood Refining Realm cultivator. Lu Ping had miscalculated.
Just as Lu Ping's mind raced, trying to think of a way to escape, a long howl came from afar. Before Lu Ping could react, a sword ray had already sliced through the air and flew towards him.
