At this moment, Shen Luo and Ying Luo had already fallen nearly twenty to thirty meters, and were less than ten meters away from the waterfall on the other side. Hearing the commotion behind them, they planned to throw Ying Luo towards the waterfall, and borrow the momentum to retreat. Although this move was extremely dangerous, it was still better than being killed by the wild leopard, killing two birds with one stone.
At this critical moment, an ear-piercing screech came from above the waterfall!
A green shadow swooped down from the opposite mountain peak. It was a giant green eagle with a golden crest on its head. Its wings were dozens of feet wide when it spread out, and it had a pair of sharp sickle-like claws under its body.
A huge pressure was emitted from its body. It was not inferior to the wild leopard in the slightest. A whirlwind rolled down from its wings.
The moment the giant eagle appeared, the golden light in the wild leopard's mouth receded, and its body that was charging down also paused.
Shen Luo first felt the pressure from the wild leopard slightly reduce, but then he was suddenly swept away by a gust of wind.
He hurriedly raised his hand and grabbed again. A water rope shot out from the opposite waterfall and wrapped around his body, but it was immediately broken again.
However, the two of them stabilized after being swept away. They stuck close to the waterfall and fell straight down. Their bodies were quickly submerged by the splashes of the waterfall.
"Wild leopard, you dare to intrude into my territory! Go back to your nest! "The giant green eagle's eyes emitted a sharp cold light as it stared at the wild leopard.
"Goshawk, this cliff is just a boundary. You disturbed my mood and even spoke rudely. Are you tired of living?" The wild leopard glanced at the place where Shen Luo and Ying Luo were falling. It quickly withdrew its gaze and looked at the giant eagle opposite. Its golden pupils emitted golden flames. It was obviously angered by the words of the other party.
"What, if you are not satisfied, then let's fight again!" The giant green eagle screeched and its body suddenly turned into a blurry green shadow. It instantly arrived in front of the wild leopard and its two green eagle claws slashed down.
The wild leopard also roared towards the sky. Its body emitted a golden light as it faced the attack head-on.
Rumble!
The golden and green lights collided fiercely, causing the air to tremble violently, setting off gusts of wind. The entire mountain peak seemed to be faintly shaking.
Fifty to sixty feet below the waterfall, Shen Luo's body was suspended in midair. Seven or eight water ropes were tied to his body, and the other end was tied to the rocks on the mountain wall nearby.
At this moment, Ying Luo was lying on Shen Luo's back. Her wet black hair was draped over her shoulders. She gently bit her lips and hugged Shen Luo's shoulders tightly without caring about the difference between men and women.
Rumble!
Loud rumbling sounds came from above. It was as if there was thunder in the sky, mixed with the roars of wild leopards and giant eagles.
Ying Luozhen raised his head slightly and looked up, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes.
"Looks like we're not fated to die today. Let's hold on tight." Shen Luo quickly retracted his gaze and reached out with both hands.
The water ropes on his body were like flexible tentacles. They constantly wrapped around the rocks below and slowly brought the two of them down. From afar, it looked like an eight-legged spider was quickly crawling down.
This valley was actually very deep. Shen Luo didn't dare to make too much noise in order to avoid attracting the attention of the two demons above. As a result, it took them half an hour to reach the bottom.
At the bottom of the valley was a large river that was seventy to eighty feet wide. The current was rapid and the end couldn't be seen at either end.
The Fa Li in Shen Luo's body was nearly exhausted. He barely managed to use the Water Treading Art to run along the river for a distance. He found a place where he could put Ying Luo down. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief and sat on the ground.
"I'm sorry to have troubled you, Big Brother Shen." Ying Luo used her hands to gently dry her wet hair and said gratefully to Shen Luo.
Shen Luo made a shushing gesture towards Ying Luo and looked up at the sky.
The sounds of battle above could no longer be heard. He didn't know if it was because the two terrifying demon beasts had stopped fighting or because they were too far away.
He withdrew his gaze and soaked his body in the river. He started to use the Nameless Art to recover his Fa Li.
When Ying Luo saw this, she carefully looked around and stood guard for Shen Luo.
Shen Luo didn't dare to stay here any longer. After recovering a bit of Fa Li, he immediately got up and used the Water Treading Art to rush forward with Ying Luo. After running for about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the valley's entrance.
Their field of vision suddenly opened up. The river extended forward and converged into a rather large pool. The pool was surrounded by lush green grass and the environment was quite peaceful.
"It seems we're safe for now. The Wild Leopard seems to be very curious about my origins. It probably won't let this go. "Shen Luo looked around and put Ying Luo down as he spoke.
"I didn't expect Miniscule Mountain to have such terrifying demon beasts. Moreover, there seems to be quite a few of them. Fortunately, these powerful beasts haven't left the mountain. Otherwise, the hundred Longevity Villages would have already been destroyed. "Ying Luo looked back at the mountain peak and said with lingering fear.
"If we want to find a way out of the mountain, we can't avoid dealing with these high level demon beasts." Shen Luo sighed and said.
When Ying Luo heard this, a trace of sadness flashed through her eyes.
The valley wasn't too far from Longevity Village. The two quickly arrived near the village.
"Yi!"
Shen Luo's face revealed a look of surprise as he exclaimed in surprise. He saw more than a dozen young and strong men with cloth bags around their waists and baskets in their hands coming out of the village. They were rushing towards the west.
"They're going to the lake in the west of the village to fish and pick the Blackgrass there." Ying Luo explained.
"There are demon beasts roaming around here. Isn't it dangerous for them to come out like this?" Shen Luo asked in confusion.
"I don't know when it started, but demon beasts would appear around the village every once in a while. We killed a group of them yesterday and it's been quite safe for a while. Even if it's dangerous, someone has to go out. Otherwise, the villagers won't be able to eat. "Ying Luo's expression dimmed as she said with a forced smile.
"Does Miss Ying want to escort them to prevent any mishaps?" Shen Luo asked again.
"No need. These people are the elites of the village and have the ability to protect themselves. Furthermore, my duty is to protect the village. Unless there are special circumstances, I can't leave the village." Ying Luo shook her head and said.
Shen Luo's expression didn't change as he muttered in his heart.
Although the Longevity Village was dilapidated and there weren't many people, the rules were perfect and reasonable. Perhaps this was the reason why the village could survive in a dangerous environment surrounded by demon beasts.
He wasn't a talkative person and naturally wouldn't comment on the rules of the Longevity Village. The two quickly arrived at the entrance of the village.
The Azure Ox was guarding the entrance with a long spear. Seeing the two return safely, it let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly welcomed them into the village.
Ying Luo asked about the day's situation. After learning that there were no abnormalities, she brought Shen Luo into the village.
"Sorry, it seems that we won't be able to find a way out in a short time." Shen Luo said with an apologetic expression.
"Brother Shen, don't say that. Ying Luo was a little delusional and almost put you in danger. That's right, what do you plan to do next? "Ying Luo hurriedly waved her hand at Shen Luo and changed the topic.
