The tide was going to rise.
This made Su Fang think of the groups of piranhas in the forest. If that was the case, then let alone crossing the river, even his life would be in danger.
As long as he crossed the Fish Mouth River, the other side would be Nightmare Cave's territory. Nightmare Cave was also one of the territories controlled by Tianmen Province, so as long as he stepped onto the other side, he would have actually reached Tianmen Province.
"How much prey do you want?" After some consideration, Su Fang still couldn't resist the temptation and chose to cooperate with the Black Tortoise Spirit and the Dragon Tortoise Spirit.
The Dragon Tortoise Spirit immediately replied, "The more the better. Use a portion to attract the piranhas so we can safely cross the river. Leave the rest for me as food."
"Deal, wait for me for a bit."
Su Fang immediately turned around and ran into the forest.
The Black Tortoise Spirit that revealed its shell suddenly revealed its head from the water's surface.
Its head was actually like a large snake's head, but also like a dragon from legends, because of the black horn on its head.
The Dragon Tortoise Spirit's dark green demon eyes glanced at the shore and its head immediately sank into the water. A large number of piranhas surrounded it and attacked it, but how could the piranhas bite through such a sturdy turtle shell?
Six hours later, it was almost dusk. A figure fell onto the shore with a crash along with the rustling leaves. It turned out that Su Fang had returned.
He was dragging dozens of pheasants and hares, but didn't catch any large prey.
The Dragon Tortoise Spirit's senses seemed to be very powerful. It didn't even need to look to know that Su Fang had returned, "You have to be careful of some of the piranhas. Come to my back and bleed the prey. Try to throw them as far away as possible. The piranhas like fresh blood, so most of them will be attracted over. Then we can reach the other side."
Su Fang was also very skilled and daring. He jumped down from the three meter high shore and steadily landed on the Dragon Tortoise Spirit's back.
At this moment, the piranhas seemed to have also sensed the movement and appeared even more excited and savage.
The Dragon Tortoise Spirit began to move, but it wasn't fast. The piranhas didn't leave no matter what. Su Fang hurriedly followed the Dragon Tortoise Spirit's instructions and bleed the pheasants and hares before throwing them a few dozen meters away. In a short while, the piranhas sensed it and all scrambled to swim up.
The rest of the piranhas noticed the blood in the air. They jumped out of the water one by one and opened their mouths to bite Su Fang.
Pa Pa Pa
Fortunately, Su Fang was already prepared. He grabbed the spirit qi in his body and turned it into a wave of aura. He shook the incoming piranhas away. If it was a mortal, they would have been shaken to death. However, these piranhas were only shaken away. He did not expect them to be as powerful as a Qi eating martial artist.
He tossed out more prey, and as a result, the number of piranhas decreased. The Dragon Turtle Spirit also swam downstream slowly, and it only got rid of all the piranhas after the time it took to burn a stick of incense.
As for the prey that had been thrown away, they had long been snatched up by a group of strange red fish.
When Su Fang saw this, he finally heaved a sigh of relief and squatted down. His eyes flashed with curiosity. "Did you just say that this is the Ten Thousand Abyss River and not the Fish Mouth River?"
The Dragon Turtle Spirit replied hoarsely, "Fish Beak River is just a name you humans came up with. However, this river is actually the Ten Thousand Abyss River. Only the strongest among you humans know the true name of this river."
"It's just a river, not a sea. How could it be remembered by the strong?"
"Don't underestimate this Ten Thousand Abyss River. This river is bottomless. The shallowest part is dozens of feet deep. Most parts are hundreds of feet deep, and some parts are even thousands of feet deep."
"The river is this deep?"
"That's because this Ten Thousand Abyss River was created by you human experts a long time ago when they were fighting. That's why it formed this bottomless valley. Later, the river flowed backwards and formed the current Ten Thousand Abyss River."
"What kind of expert would have such strength?"
Su Fang's chin trembled. He did not expect a cultivator to have such strength.
The Dragon Turtle Spirit spoke again, "My name is Gebatu. I've always lived in the depths of this Ten Thousand Abyss River. I know this place like the back of my hand. I'm also very familiar with you human cultivators, so you don't have to worry. Crossing the river is a piece of cake."
It was a very strange name, but Su Fang also remembered this name. This was the first demon he had encountered that could speak.
Gebatu suddenly asked, "Are you a cultivator from Nightmare Cave or Tianmen Province?"
"This is my first time going out. I'm going to Tianmen Province's Touch the Heavens Gate to join Tianmen Province to cultivate." After chatting for a while, Su Fang did not have much vigilance against this Dragon Turtle Spirit.
"I've often heard humans talk about Touch the Heavens Gate. So you're going to Tianmen Province." The Dragon Turtle Spirit suddenly stopped talking.
At this moment, Su Fang gradually saw the other side of the river approaching. It was about two hundred feet away, and the river was still flowing rapidly. He did not know if the piranhas would appear, so he could only wait for Gebatu to slowly approach.
A turtle, he now had a deep understanding of this.
"Then your family can rest assured that you'll come out." Gebatu spoke again.
"My parents have passed away. Even my grandfather left me not long ago. This time, I'm going to Tianmen Province to find my father's remains."
"What a pitiful human."
"This time, I will definitely reach my goal in Tianmen Province."
"Your courage is commendable. Your courage is commendable."
The Dragon Turtle Spirit's turtle shell, which was floating on the river, suddenly sank when it was about to reach the other side of the river. Su Fang was lost in thoughts because the other party mentioned his family. At this moment, the entire turtle shell sank into the river, and then his legs sank into the water.
"What are you doing?"
Su Fang was stunned. He did not know why the Dragon Turtle Spirit suddenly sank.
However, when he saw that the river water reached his calves, he immediately used his strength to leap up and tried his best to reach the other side of the river. However, he only moved a few feet forward before he fell into the Ten Thousand Abyss River with his bag.
Gugu.
Under the water, Su Fang drank a few mouthfuls of water as soon as he fell. When he saw the Dragon Turtle Spirit suddenly swim towards him, especially when he saw Gebatu's head stretch out. It was actually three feet long, and when it opened its mouth, it revealed sharp teeth.
"So this Turtle Spirit set a trap for me from the beginning in order to eat me."
At this moment, he finally understood. In his heart, he wanted to tear the Dragon Turtle Spirit apart. However, he knew that he was no match for the Turtle Spirit in the water, so he immediately swam towards the shore.
The Dragon Turtle Spirit's precision suddenly increased. Its speed underwater had increased by ten times.
What kind of concept was ten times?
Su Fang had only swam a few feet when the Dragon Turtle Spirit swam in front of Su Fang. It jumped up from below and opened its mouth in front of Su Fang. It completely made it impossible for Su Fang to struggle or resist. Its mouth actually bit down on Su Fang's head and half of Su Fangda's body.
"Haha, another human cultivator has become my food." The Turtle Spirit was very pleased.
"Ah!"
But just as it was about to bite Su Fang to pieces, it suddenly let out a pained cry.
"Immortal Thorn Armor! Thank goodness I have the Immortal Thorn Armor! You damn Turtle Spirit, I'll kill you!"
Su Fang was wearing a magic treasure, the Immortal Thorn Armor.
Su Fang did not expect that.
The Turtle Spirit also did not expect that an ordinary cultivator would have a magic treasure, and a treasured armor at that.
Regardless, Su Fang poured all the spiritual qi in his body into the Immortal Thorn Armor. Although it was not spiritual qi, it should have some effect on the Immortal Thorn Armor.
Gebatu grabbed Su Fang and swam towards the depths of the Ten Thousand Abyss River. It seemed that he wanted to suffocate Su Fang to death. Even if he could not eat him, he wanted him to die without a burial place.
His mouth suddenly trembled and blood flowed out. It was so painful that it could only open its mouth wide. Su Fang swam towards the shore, releasing a dark light from his body.
It seemed that the Immortal Thorn Armor's power had injured the Dragon Turtle Spirit.
"This is the power of the pill!"
The Dragon Turtle Spirit was unwilling to see its cooked duck fly away. It immediately chased after Su Fang. Behind Su Fang, it suddenly saw some white mist coming out of Su Fang's bag.
Su Fang also smelled the strange medicinal fragrance. "Oh no, that Meridian Activating Pill in the Wu Family has been dissolved by the water."
"Huff, huff!"
Gebatu was really lucky. He spat out a beam of demonic light and sucked the white mist into his mouth. It seemed that he was more excited than swallowing a cultivator.
"Huff!"
The time difference caused by the Meridian Activating Pill allowed Su Fang to finally reach the shore. He rushed to the shore regardless of everything.
The Dragon Turtle Spirit also appeared on the surface of the river. Its eyes were filled with anger. "Human brat, don't run if you have the guts. Look at how you broke my teeth!"
"Come up if you have the guts!" Su Fang stood on the shore and could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Thinking about the Meridian Activating Pill, his heart ached. He could only stomp his feet. If he had known, he would not have wrapped it in cloth and swallowed it long ago.
However, he could not deny that it was this Meridian Activating Pill that saved him.
"Come down if you have the guts. How am I going to tear you apart? I'm so angry!" Gebatu could only stare at Su Fang. He could not do anything.
Su Fang did not intend to continue fighting with Gebatu because he was bitten. "Turtle Demon, remember this. Once I master my divine ability, I will definitely come back to deal with you!"
"Grandpa Turtle will wait for you!"
Gebatu could only disappear into the water.
"There are water monsters causing trouble in the river. Nightmare Cave!"
Just as he arrived at the forest, he saw a green stone tablet. Seeing the words carved on it, Su Fang almost vomited blood.
Why wasn't this stone tablet on the other side of the river?
"Nightmare Cave. Past Nightmare Cave is Tianmen Province."
After entering the forest, he also saw traces of being submerged by the flood. It seemed that staying in the forest would be dangerous sooner or later. He immediately flew away.
After two hours, although he did not fly out of the forest, he arrived at a mountain. Although this mountain was not a huge one, it did not have any traces of being submerged by the flood.
After cleaning a few bite marks and applying some medicinal powder, the pain finally disappeared.
"Are the Gu worms fine?"
Thinking about the melted Meridian Activating Pill, he also thought about the other treasures in his bag.
He immediately flipped through them. The three teleportation talismans left by his master were all there. The Flame Pattern Talisman from the Wu Clan was also there. The small golden scroll was also there. When he opened the wooden box, the three Gu worms were also alive and well.
"If I go to Tianmen Province, I will have to hide these treasures first. Otherwise, if someone finds them, there won't be a single one left." He calculated in his heart and began to prepare in advance.
He meditated and absorbed natural energy. After several hours of absorbing natural energy, his body finally returned to normal. Only then did he peacefully lie down and sleep.
Squeak Squeak
A flock of birds flew over the mountain, chirping non-stop, causing Su Fang to open his eyes.
After tidying up and picking some fruits, he walked down the mountain.
At noon, he finally walked out of the large forest near the Wan Yuan River. In front of him was an even more majestic mountain range and a large primeval forest.
Just as he walked out of the forest and arrived at the ravine that intersected with the mountain range, he suddenly trembled.
It seemed that the tide had indeed risen last night. There was some water in front of him, and many piranhas were motionless inside. It was quite frightening.
Fortunately, the water was not deep, otherwise Su Fang would have already escaped.
Boom!
Just as Su Fang went around the water, several large black bears suddenly rushed out of the forest on the other side.
They were indeed bears. When Su Fang saw these large bears, he hastily ran away in fright.
It turned out that these large black bears had blood-red eyes.
Ferocious Nature
These were wild beasts that possessed a demonic nature.
