At first glance, Junior Leopard thought it was a loach or a water snake hiding in the crevice and making a strange hissing sound. But after a closer look, he found that it was not.
This black creature wasn't very long, only about 30 centimeters. Its body diameter was only about two or three centimeters. It looked like a loach, but that was only its size. This strange creature was covered with fine black scales, which were much thicker than the scales on a loach. Under the moonlight, it faintly emitted a metallic luster. Only its neck had a circle of fins. When it hissed, the fins on its neck stretched out, forming a circle around its neck, as if it was wearing an umbrella over its body.
"So it's a little monster, it scared me!" Seeing the appearance of this creature, Junior Leopard's vigilance immediately dropped. In his opinion, even if this thing wasn't a loach, it was the same species as one. This world was so strange, it wasn't strange for a loach to look different from the world in his previous life. At most, it was just a little poisonous. This kind of creature that lived in the water, as long as he didn't enter the water, no matter how poisonous it was, it had nothing to do with him.
Thinking of this, Junior Leopard was relieved. He looked around again, and other than the strange creature in the crevice, there were no other abnormalities. He then jumped down and walked towards the Rootless Grass.
The few stalks of Rootless Grass here were enough. In the remaining four days, as long as he found the Wandering Flower, he would be able to complete the task.
In a good mood, he couldn't help but let his guard down. He walked a few steps to the side of the Rootless Grass and was about to reach out to pluck it. Just as he stretched out his hand, something happened.
As he approached the Rootless Grass, the strange creature in the crevice's cries became more and more ear-piercing. Junior Leopard didn't pay attention to it, treating it as a loach. No matter how loud it screamed, it wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
However, his hand hadn't even touched the Rootless Grass when the strange creature in the crevice fiercely sprang out from the crevice. It opened its big mouth and bit towards Junior Leopard's hand.
"F * ck —!"
Junior Leopard let out a strange cry and withdrew his hand, dodging the attack. He never thought that a small loach could jump out of the water at such a high speed. Most importantly, when the creature jumped out of the crack, it opened its big mouth. This time, Junior Leopard was really scared.
How was this a loach? It was a miniature version of the Alien from the Deep Sea in American blockbusters. The moment it opened its mouth, the head of this creature was like the Alien spores in the movie "Alien" opened, revealing rows of cold and dense teeth. These teeth were frighteningly white, and there were countless tiny sawteeth on them, with a faint blue light. Junior Leopard believed that as long as he was bitten by this monster, he would probably lose more than half of his life.
Junior Leopard shrank so fast that the monster's bite failed. Its body twisted and stabbed in mid-air. It actually turned around at a very strange angle and fell at Junior Leopard's feet. After landing on the ground, its body was like a snake, flashing to bite Junior Leopard's feet.
"F * ck —!"
This time, Junior Leopard was really angry. He raised his hands, and two Kunais shot towards his feet.
"Ding, ding —!" Two sounds rang out. The two Kunais accurately nailed between the head and the body of the creature, but they only produced two bright sparks. The monster's momentum was blocked for a moment, and then it bounced off.
Taking advantage of the creature's momentary pause, Junior Leopard abruptly soared into the air. Activating the Yanfu Inner Strength, he leaped three or four feet into the air. Almost at the same time, the creature also leaped into the air, skimming beneath his feet.
"What a strange creature!" Junior Leopard used Thousand Pounds Falling to the ground, and took advantage of the momentum to roll. It was the legendary Lazy Donkey Roll. He picked up the two Kunais on the ground, and with a leap, he jumped into the crack between the rocks. He pulled out the rootless grass, not daring to stay any longer. He used his body movement, wanting to get rid of this strange creature. However, just as he used his body movement, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, and all the pores on his body almost exploded in an instant.
"Oh no!" Junior Leopard was shocked, and his body rushed forward, falling face first to the ground. Almost at the moment when he fell to the ground, he felt an incomparably hot airflow almost brushing past his head.
"That's —!"
After falling to the ground, Junior Leopard's movements did not stop. Next, he did another Lazy Donkey Roll, rolling several feet away before he found a chance to get up. He finally saw clearly what had happened when he was about to run away.
Flames!
Black flames!
A large mass of black flames was burning strangely on the tree in front of the ground where he had just fallen. The tree, which was dozens of feet high, was now only left with its roots, which were less than a meter long. The mass of black flames was also slowly becoming smaller.
Looking back, he saw that the loach was not moving, and its body was slightly trembling. Junior Leopard's heart stirred, and he faintly grasped something important.
"Damn, after this guy spat out a mouthful of fire, it behaved as if I had used the Three Realms Division. It seemed that it had overdrawn its body, and it looked like it was f * cking overdrawn. What I did just now was in vain!"
Junior Leopard thought of how he had rolled a few more times, and his face became a little ugly. "I'll take advantage of your weakness to kill you. I don't believe that your body is really so hard!"
He jumped up, and his right hand touched his waist. With a flash of black light, the coal dagger was already in his hand. His right foot fiercely kicked the ground, and he rushed toward that weird loach.
Just as Junior Leopard had speculated, this weird loach had consumed a certain amount of physical strength when chasing Junior Leopard. After spitting out that mouthful of fire, its whole body had no strength left. Although this monster was strange, its body was too small, and its spiritual wisdom was not developed. Junior Leopard's movement was extremely fast, and the coal dagger in his hand was also the weapon of Xue Wuya, a Level Eight expert. Even if this weird loach's body was as hard as metal, under Junior Leopard's powerful blow, it was still cut into two, and it did not even have the chance to react.
"Clang!" As the sword cut through, Junior Leopard's heart tightened. The feeling of this sword was like using a sharp weapon from the Wu's ironware shop to cut an iron bar. Although it was also cut in two, it was very jerky, and there was a faint rebounding force.
"What kind of monster is this? How can it be so hard?!"
The coal dagger in his hand was at least a weapon that had been tempered a hundred times. It was much sharper than those so-called magic weapons in Jianghu. Junior Leopard had tried it before, and no matter how thick the tree was, it was like cutting tofu. There was no feeling of obstruction at all.
However, it was so difficult to cut this thing's body.
"No wonder my Kunai is useless against it. This thing's body is several times stronger than pure gold iron!"
However, no matter what, this sword had already cut, and it was cut in two.
Junior Leopard was finally relieved.
However, just when he was relieved, something strange suddenly happened.
His heart suddenly jumped.
"No, the danger is not over yet!"
A wisp of black flowing light flew out from the body of the loach that was cut in half. It floated in the air, faintly flashing under the moonlight.
"This is … a flame?"
Junior Leopard focused his eyes and saw that the black flowing light floating in the air was actually a ball of flame. This ball of flame was not big, only the size of a soybean. It was condensed and did not disperse. Apart from the shape of the flame, Junior Leopard could not even feel its heat.
However, Junior Leopard did not dare to be careless. Now he could not feel its heat, but in the depths of his heart, he felt a great deterrent from this thing. It was as if this small ball of black flame was wrapped in some kind of destructive power.
Junior Leopard took two steps back, and looked at the body on the ground with some reluctance. He turned around and wanted to leave.
What happened today was really too strange. The thing that appeared in front of him was also strange. It was not that he did not know that the body of the loach that was cut in two by him might have a great value, but the black flame in front of him made him hesitate.
