After searching for a long time, his target had finally appeared. Xiao Lingyu could not hide his excitement.
However, the environment here was different. He did not let his guard down because of his excitement. Instead, he scanned the area.
He did not know if it was because he was too nervous or too excited. Xiao Lingyu felt that when he focused all his attention on the King Bodhi, he was also locked on by a hidden aura.
"Maybe it's because I'm too nervous."
Xiao Lingyu hesitated for a moment. Seeing that there was no danger, he took a deep breath and reached out for the King Bodhi.
However, just as his hand was about to touch the almost transparent King Bodhi, a rapid stream of water rolled up from the bottom of the pool and instantly wrapped around his body.
At the same time, a huge force surged into Xiao Lingyu's body. He could not move at all. It was as if he was tied up by a very powerful rope.
Xiao Lingyu's heart skipped a beat. Then, the purplish-black Chaotic Primordial Flame came out of his body.
As soon as the Primordial Flame appeared, Xiao Lingyu felt much more relaxed. The feeling of being tied down disappeared.
However, at this moment, another stream of water rushed towards him. He roared and used one of his arms to form a dragon fist. He smashed it towards the stream of water.
Bang!
An explosion sounded from the water. The pool water around Xiao Lingyu was immediately shaken away. His body was also pushed out of the water by the stream of water.
Splash …
The pool water spread out in all directions. A toad-like Demonic Beast revealed its huge head. Its two demonic eyes glowed with a dark green light. They stared at Xiao Lingyu. The anger in its eyes was obvious.
Croak!
The Demon Beast let out a cry, and a dark green water arrow immediately flew out of its mouth, flying towards Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu felt that he had been locked on. Therefore, he did not dodge. In the next moment, he held the Silver Moon Broken Sword tightly in his hand and slashed out.
Although the Silver Moon Broken Sword shattered the water arrow, Xiao Lingyu's body was once again pushed up a few hundred feet. However, before he could stabilize his body, his body had already disappeared under the effect of the Invisibility Divine Robe.
Xiao Lingyu's sudden disappearance caused the toad-like demon beast's pair of big eyes to immediately narrow. From its body, there was a very powerful wave of thought, sweeping in all directions.
This toad-like Demonic Beast had the cultivation of the late stage of the Martial Monarch Level. There was no need to doubt its strength. However, it could not compare to the Divine Sense of a Celestial Prime. Therefore, it could not find Xiao Lingyu's location.
Although Xiao Lingyu was temporarily unharmed, he did not dare to rashly fall into the water again. This was because as long as the Invisibility Divine Robe fell into the water again, his body would be exposed, and then he would receive the fierce attacks of this demonic beast.
The Demonic Beast's attack might not be able to do anything to Xiao Lingyu. However, if it guarded the King Bodhi Medallion with all its might, Xiao Lingyu would also have a headache.
This stalemate lasted for a few hours. Xiao Lingyu did not act rashly. The Demonic Beast continued to float on the surface of the water, looking more patient than Xiao Lingyu.
However, not long after, waves of croaking sounds came from the direction of the underground river. At the same time, there were waves of Bat Demons hissing.
The few toad-like Demonic Beasts that had gone out to look for food had returned. After a few moments, they all fell into the pool with a splash.
Then, a dense swarm of Bat Demons rushed over from the direction of the underground river. In the blink of an eye, they filled the mountainside.
These Bat Demons kept hissing at the toad-like Demonic Beasts in the pool, as if they were angrily protesting. The toad-like Demonic Beasts, on the other hand, extended their long and wide tongues from time to time, sucking the Bat Demons into their big mouths.
These toad-like Demonic Beasts were actually feeding on the Bat Demons!
Even though Xiao Lingyu had been carefully and quickly dodging, there were simply too many Bat Demons here. They were too dense. Before he could hold on for twenty breaths of time, he was exposed because he had bumped into a Bat Demon. Then, countless Bat Demons surrounded him and rushed over fearlessly.
Unable to hide his body anymore, Xiao Lingyu released the Chaotic Primordial Fire.
These Bat Demons that lived in dark places disliked high-level flames the most. They also feared high-level flames the most. Therefore, when they saw the purplish-black Chaotic Primordial Fire and felt that its power was too strong, they only surrounded it and did not dare to rush over.
The Bat Demons were not very intelligent. Previously, Xiao Lingyu did not harm them, so they did not have much hatred for Xiao Lingyu. Very soon, they turned their attention back to the toad-like Demonic Beasts on the surface of the pool.
Countless Bat Demons rushed forward one after another like black arrows, continuously attacking the surface of the pool. However, the toad-like Demonic Beasts had gathered together. Their tongues were like invincible whips that swept in all directions. The Bat Demons rushing over were just sending themselves to their deaths.
At this time, Xiao Lingyu took the opportunity to retract the Chaotic Primordial Fire and hide his body again. He hid in a crack in the stone wall so that he would not be exposed again.
However, it did not take long before Emperor level Bat Demons rushed over. Moreover, they brought along countless Monarch level Bat Demons.
The Bat Demons' cultivation was not as high as the toad-like Demonic Beasts below. Moreover, they were at a natural disadvantage because of the toad-like Demonic Beasts below. However, they had the advantage in numbers. If they continued to attack crazily, the toad-like Demonic Beasts below would not have an easy time.
Xiao Lingyu watched from the side with fear. If he did not have the Invisible Divine Robe, once he was blocked by the Bat Demons, even if he was not weak, he would probably be exhausted to death. It was no wonder that Mao Zhen and the experts of the Wonderful Pill Sect did not dare to come over to collect the Bodhi King even though they knew that he was here.
The Bat Demons had counterattacked the toad-like Demonic Beasts more than once or twice. The reason why the toad-like Demonic Beasts could still stay here safely was because they had a Late Emperor level Bat Demon. Although the Bat Demons were numerous, they did not have a Late Emperor level Bat Demon. Therefore, every time they attacked, they would return without success. They would still be hunted down by the toad-like Demonic Beasts.
Croak!!
Seeing that the ordinary Late Emperor level toad-like Demonic Beasts could not hold on any longer, the Late Emperor level toad-like Demonic Beasts suddenly let out a loud cry, causing the entire mountainside to tremble.
Then, a powerful aura surged up, instantly wiping out more than half of the Bat Demons that remained in the mountainside.
The Great Emperor level Bat Demon seemed to be very good at judging the situation. He immediately called for his people to retreat. In a few moments, the mountainside was empty.
Xiao Lingyu was a little depressed. He had originally thought that he could watch from the sidelines and wait for the Bat Demons and the Toad-Like Demonic Beasts to fight until both sides were injured. Then, he would sit back and reap the benefits. Unfortunately, these Bat Demons were so cowardly. The moment the Late Emperor level toad-like Demonic Beasts appeared, they all fled. Xiao Lingyu's plan became a pipe dream.
A Late Emperor level toad-like Demonic Beasts was already a headache for Xiao Lingyu. Now that there were a few more Late Emperor level toad-like Demonic Beasts, it would be even more difficult for Xiao Lingyu to obtain the Bodhi King.
Xiao Lingyu did not dare to act blindly without thinking. He could only continue to wait for an opportunity. He decided that if there was really no better opportunity, he would wait until the Late Emperor level toad-like Demonic Beasts left to hunt for food again. Then, he would force his way in.
A month passed. The Emperor level toad-like Demonic Beasts that had already sunk into the water did not emerge.
Half a year later, the water surface was still very calm.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye, and they still didn't show any signs of coming out to look for food. As for the late stage Emperor level toad, it slowly sank into the water.
It was only then that Xiao Lingyu realized that Emperor-level Demonic Beasts would definitely be able to sustain themselves for a very long time. They definitely wouldn't come out to hunt for food every few days.
"I don't know how long it will take to refine a divine pill. I can't wait any longer!"
Xiao Lingyu's patience was worn out. He took a deep breath and slowly sank into the water again.
There was a saying in the secular world, "If you're willing to be cut to pieces, you'll dare to pull the emperor off his horse!"
Now that Qing Xuan was in a critical situation, Xiao Lingyu couldn't care less. Qing Xuan was willing to risk her life for him, so he naturally wasn't a coward.
This time, as soon as Xiao Lingyu fell into the water, several water arrows flew towards him, and he was pushed out of the water again.
It was obvious that the toad-like Demonic Beasts were very vigilant, or perhaps the late stage Emperor level toad had already informed everyone to be careful.
Xiao Lingyu had long expected this situation to happen, so he didn't panic. He hid in his Spiritual Abode and let it rush down quickly.
Unfortunately, when his Spiritual Abode rushed down, he was depressed to find that all the toad-like Demonic Beasts, including the late stage Emperor level toad, were actually guarding the King Bodhi Pill. Xiao Lingyu couldn't appear quickly and quickly take the King Bodhi Pill away.
They already knew what Xiao Lingyu was going to do, so they were very focused on protecting him.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Lingyu steeled his heart and invited out the more than a thousand armored puppets that he had already refined. Then, he ordered them to attack at the same time.
These more than a thousand armored puppets might not be very strong individually, but at least their skin was rough and their flesh was thick. Their armor's defense was extremely strong. When they charged together, they were like a steel fortress, giving people a heavy sense of oppression.
The toad-like Monster Beasts were also shocked by the appearance of so many Iron Armoured Puppets. But soon after, they shouted at the same time, and a dark green light curtain suddenly appeared, protecting them inside and blocking the Iron Armoured Puppets outside.
"This isn't enough!"
Xiao Lingyu smiled disdainfully and slashed at the dark green light curtain with his Silver Moon Broken Blade. However, the light curtain was also incomparably strong, and could actually bounce off the armored puppets' attacks.
However, no matter how strong the light curtain was, it gradually showed signs of collapsing under the constant bombardment of more than a thousand armored puppets.
In addition, Xiao Lingyu was constantly burning with the purple-black Primal Chaos True Fire. The dark green light curtain only lasted for less than the time to drink a cup of tea before it exploded with a loud bang.
After the light curtain exploded, the toad-like Demonic Beasts stretched out their tongues at the same time, sweeping the armored puppets around and messing up their formation.
