Yellow Dragon River, Southern Border's third largest river, was over eight thousand kilometers long, originating from Huang Guo mountain, flowing through Xuan Ming mountain, Gui Bei mountain, Qing Mao mountain, Bai Gu mountain, Lei Ci mountain and others, finally flowing into the sea.
If one looked at the entire Southern Border from a bird's eye view, the Yellow Dragon River was like a character, passing through more than half of the Southern Border's area.
The character roared and stirred up the sand, the waves were grand and majestic. Splitting the shore, piercing through the gorge, shocking the earth, bringing the clouds and spitting out the mist into the sky.
The Yellow Dragon River's current was rapid, the yellow water surging. The fish, turtles, snakes and mussels in the river were full of vitality. At this moment, on the river surface, a bamboo raft was tossed about in the waves.
This jade green bamboo raft was tattered and full of scars. In the middle of the bamboo raft was a simple mast, with a white tattered sail. There were resources piled around the mast, stabilizing the center of gravity. The bamboo was tied up with hemp ropes. Some places were tied up again and again, evidently on the river surface, they had been urgently processed many times.
The river water surged forward, the bamboo raft rode the current, drifting with the waves.
Every time the river water slapped, the bamboo raft would emit sounds of being unable to bear the heavy load, making one's heart skip a beat.
On this bamboo raft that seemed like it could fall apart at any time, there were two youngsters.
One was a young man, with an ordinary face, wearing a black robe, black eyes and black hair. The other was a young girl, wearing a white robe, blue eyes and silver hair, looking like an immortal.
They were Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing.
Ever since the battle on Qing Mao mountain, Bai Ning Bing self-detonated the Northern Dark Ice Soul physique, trapping Master Tensuru temporarily. They spent a lot of effort to break out of the ice, cut down the green spear bamboo, and after building this bamboo raft, they immediately escaped.
Fang Yuan's Thousand Li Earthwolf Spider was already dead, while Bai Ning Bing's White Form Immortal Snake had flown away earlier, with no news of it.
The two did not have Gu worms to travel on, relying on their own strength, their speed was too slow, and would definitely be chased by Master Tensuru. Thus, Fang Yuan had no choice but to use this method.
Yellow Dragon River had a tributary at Qing Mao mountain, back then, that Rank five River Swallowing Toad had followed the main river channel of Yellow Dragon River and accidentally landed at the foot of Qing Mao mountain.
From the tributary, the bamboo raft entered the main river. Following the river, it traveled more than a thousand miles in a day. Naturally, its speed was extremely fast.
"It's already been five days. Looks like that old man won't be coming." Fang Yuan stood on the bamboo raft and looked behind him as he muttered.
The bamboo raft's speed was ultimately not faster than the Ironbeak Flying Crane King. However, the Ironbeak Flying Crane King was a beast after all, so it needed to rest. It couldn't be compared to the bamboo raft, which relied on the flow of the water to stretch on endlessly. The longer it took, the safer Fang Yuan would be.
Moreover, Fang Yuan remembered that after Master Tensuru killed Guyue, he came back alone. The Ironbeak Flying Crane King was most likely dead.
Bai Ning Bing glanced at Fang Yuan. Although she couldn't hear the contents of Fang Yuan's words, she knew what Fang Yuan meant.
She laughed. "What's there to worry about? If that old thing chases after us, we can just turn around and fight to the death. The battle on this Yellow Dragon River will be very exciting. But, if we die here, we might end up as food for the fishes and prawns. Hehe, this is quite interesting. "
Fang Yuan ignored her and stared into the distance.
Thinking about it, after five days, they were already very close to Bai Gu mountain.
In his memories, there was a hidden inheritance in Bai Gu mountain, it was set up by a pair of righteous rank four Gu Masters, waiting for a fated person.
"I did not personally experience Bai Gu mountain's inheritance in my previous life, I only heard about it. But it is said that in this inheritance, there are some rounds that require two people to work together to pass. "
Fang Yuan secretly glanced at Bai Ning Bing as he thought of this.
Although he was traveling with Bai Ning Bing, it was only because of the situation and the pressure of a strong enemy. He himself was only Rank one initial stage, he needed help to roam the outside world. Moreover, Bai Ning Bing had become a girl. And he had the Yang Gu, it was the same as having a hold on her greatest weakness, forcing her to compromise.
If they really entered Bai Gu mountain, would they really be able to work together?
This was a huge problem.
Bang.
Suddenly, a muffled sound could be heard.
"Not good, the rope fell off again." This sound was too familiar to Bai Ning Bing, she immediately cried out in alarm.
The river water was extremely strong, and in these five days, it had broken the rope binding the bamboo spear many times. But fortunately, Fang Yuan had made ample preparations before he set off.
"Quickly get the rope, I will handle this for now." Fang Yuan quickly squatted down and used his hands to hold the area where the rope had split, preventing the terrible situation from worsening.
The river water was extremely strong, and holding the bamboo raft required a lot of strength. Bai Ning Bing was far from being able to handle it, only Fang Yuan who had the strength of two boars could do it.
Fortunately, this situation had happened many times before, and Bai Ning Bing had experience in dealing with it, quickly fetching the rope on the bamboo raft's simple mast.
"Coming, coming!" She quickly came over and handed over the rope.
Fang Yuan quickly fetched it and quickly tied it, sweating profusely as he wrapped several ropes, barely managing to hold the raft in place.
"The bamboo raft is already badly damaged, according to this situation, it can only last for one more day. After one day, we will have to reach the shore. "Fang Yuan sighed.
The Yellow Dragon River was not safe, and there were many dangers hidden in the surging river water. If the bamboo raft collapsed in the middle of the river, Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing would fall into the water, and their lives would be in unpredictable danger.
Thud.
Suddenly, a soft muffled sound could be heard.
"What sound?" Fang Yuan instantly frowned.
Bai Ning Bing tilted her ears, her expression puzzled: "What sound, why can't I hear it?"
Ginseng roots grew out of Fang Yuan's ears, and almost immediately after, a continuous' thud 'sound could be heard. The bamboo raft also started to shake slightly.
"There's something in the river, it's attacking the bamboo raft!" Bai Ning Bing exclaimed.
With a whoosh, a black line shot out from the river beside the bamboo raft and brushed past Bai Ning Bing.
This black shadow was extremely fast, and could not be seen with one's eyes. Bai Ning Bing only felt a chill beside her ear, and a stream of liquid flowed down her cheek. She subconsciously touched it, and it was blood!
"What the hell is this!" She cursed, and looked up, only to see a shuttle-shaped black fish falling from the sky into the river.
"It's a Shuttle Swordfish, damn it, quickly reach the shore!" Fang Yuan shouted, and hurriedly pulled the sails.
This Shuttle Swordfish had two sharp heads, and a large midsection, like a shuttle. They could only be seen in the great rivers and seas. Often, there were hundreds or thousands of them. They were carnivorous, and often set out in groups to hunt prey that were dozens or even hundreds of times larger than themselves.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
One after another, black arrows shot out from the river's surface.
The bamboo raft shook violently, and a large number of Shuttle Swordfish hit the bamboo raft. Fortunately, the Green Thatched Bamboo was an excellent bamboo, and was extremely hard, so it was able to resist. A large number of Shuttle Swordfish stabbed into the bottom of the bamboo raft, causing it to be in a precarious situation.
The sails were adjusted, and with the help of the river wind, the bamboo raft tilted to the side of the river.
But the school of Shuttle Swordfish in the river did not give up. A large number of black shadows swam, and fiercely attacked.
Crack.
A Green Spear Bamboo broke, and a Shuttle Swordfish crashed into the bamboo raft; its momentum was exhausted, and it landed at Bai Ning Bing's feet.
Its body was covered in tightly packed scales, and its head was shaped like an awl, shining with a dark light. Bai Ning Bing looked at it helplessly. After she self-detonated, all the Gu worms on her body were frozen to death. Yin Yang Rotation Gu only saved her, but did not have the ability to revive her Gu worms.
Crack crack crack.
Next, a large number of bamboo shards broke.
The bamboo raft withstood the first wave of attacks, it was already outstanding enough. It could no longer withstand the second wave.
The river water spread, and the bamboo raft was damaged, starting to sink.
"Quick, quick, quick!" Fang Yuan cursed, and protected the sails. If the sails were lost, the bamboo raft would have no power, and Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing would die if they fell into the river!
The Shuttle Swordfish prepared for the third wave of attacks, and large numbers of Shuttle Swordfish shot out like a rain of arrows. The bamboo was pierced, the hemp ropes were torn, and the bamboo raft started to collapse.
Canopy Gu!
Fang Yuan barely activated the Rank three Gu worm, and immediately, the primeval sea in his aperture fell at a terrifying speed.
This was under the situation where he had a ninety percent A grade aptitude, and had the Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus.
Rank one initial stage green copper primeval essence could not meet the requirements of the Canopy Gu in terms of quality.
Even the white light armor that was formed was extremely weak, and did not have the aura of a Rank three cultivator.
Bam bam bam.
The Shuttle Swordfish crashed into the white light armor, producing a series of muffled sounds, but could not harm Fang Yuan. But Bai Ning Bing was already injured, and she frantically dodged on the bamboo raft, dodging the Shuttle Swordfish that shot up from below. At the same time, she stood behind Fang Yuan, relying on him to block most of the attacks.
The situation was extremely dangerous, and the sails were also broken, with many holes covering the surface of the sails. The bamboo raft's power was getting weaker and weaker. There was less than a third of the bamboo raft left, and a large amount of river water rose up, covering the feet, and it was about to sink.
"Damn it, could it be that even a Rank five Gu Master can't kill me, but I am going to die in the hands of these puny Shuttle Swordfish?" Bai Ning Bing sighed.
With another wave of attack, the bamboo raft would definitely collapse, and they would definitely die if they fell into the water.
However …
The Shuttle Swordfish group's attack had yet to arrive, causing Bai Ning Bing to hold her breath, her heart on edge.
"We've reached the shore, the Shuttle Swordfish group won't swim to the shallow waters. Huff! We are temporarily safe. "Fang Yuan let out a breath of turbid air, his body extremely sore and limp.
These days, he had not slept or rested, controlling the sails and constantly adjusting the direction of the bamboo raft. He had almost reached the limit of his stamina.
Bai Ning Bing also fiercely sucked in a breath of cold air, her white robe was dyed red with blood, and there were dozens of injuries on her body. Fortunately, she had battle talent, and with the bamboo raft to reduce the Shuttle Swordfish's momentum, she only suffered light injuries.
Fang Yuan glanced at Bai Ning Bing, and immediately felt pain on his body.
He was also injured, and blood flowed out continuously.
The Canopy Gu had only been activated for a few minutes, and the primeval sea in his aperture had completely dried up. Without protection, his body of flesh and blood naturally could not resist the Shuttle Swordfish.
His original plan was to drift for another day.
But there are unpredictable winds and clouds in the sky, and people have their ups and downs. Plans can never keep up with changes, and there was still a distance to Bai Gu mountain, but Fang Yuan had to reach the shore now.
The sails had already lost their use, and Fang Yuan used all his strength to steer the bamboo raft away from the reefs, and stranded on a beach.
The two waded through the water, stepping on the soft sand, and reached the shore.
Bai Ning Bing covered her injuries, and sat down. Her face was pale, "If this goes on, we will definitely lose too much blood, and it bodes ill! What Gu worms do you have that can heal me, quickly take them out. "
Fang Yuan smiled bitterly, where would he get a healing Gu?
