6743: C6743 Hooksnake Beast

C6743 Hooksnake Beast

The two of them were extremely fast.

As Lu Yu had expected, the number of wild beasts in the forest had obviously decreased. Even the most ferocious wild beasts had fallen into a state of hibernation.

Bai Suqing's legs had already recovered, and her movement speed was as fast as a flying arrow. Although they did not have any magic power, as cultivators, their physical strength was much stronger than ordinary mortals. It was not difficult for them to travel a few dozen kilometers.

After walking for about fifty kilometers, the two of them did not suffer any attacks. There was a small stream nearby, and the spring water was clear. The forest was dense and peaceful.

The two of them stopped here for a while and drank some water to rest.

Bai Suqing was barefooted and raised her skirt to wash her face with a clear spring water. Her beautiful face was as beautiful as a piece of white jade, so beautiful that it could not be described.

Lu Yu, on the other hand, kept looking around vigilantly with a slight frown on his face.

An intense sense of unease spread through Lu Yu's mind. This was a terrifying feeling. There seemed to be something hiding in the vicinity, and it was circling around them.

"Your face is covered in blood. Wash it off." Bai Suqing looked at Lu Yu.

Lu Yu waved his hand and continued to look at the forest nearby.

The forest was dense and there were towering trees everywhere. The layers of trees covered one's line of sight.

Bai Suqing's heart sank when she saw how cautious Lu Yu was. She quickly stood up and stepped on her shoes to come to Lu Yu's side.

"What's wrong?" Bai Suqing asked in a deep voice.

She was very clear that Lu Yu's expression was definitely because he had noticed something.

"This area is too quiet." Lu Yu looked around. "When we came here, there should have been at least some sounds of insects and birds. But now, all sounds have disappeared."

There was silence in the surroundings, and only the sound of the stream flowing could be heard.

Perhaps it was the sound of the stream flowing that made the two of them relax their vigilance. Thinking about it carefully, their expressions could not help but change.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, rustling sounds came from the surrounding trees.

Lu Yu's reaction was quite fast. The moment the sound came, he picked up a huge rock nearby and threw it in the direction where the sound came from.

Rumble!

The huge rock broke through the air and collided with the incoming person. However, the seemingly hard rock was actually shattered into pieces in an instant.

The strange sound entered their ears, causing their scalps to go numb. The sunlight shone through the dense trees and finally illuminated the huge monster in front of them.

This was a huge snake with a rather strange shape. Its entire body was covered in purple scales, and its tail was actually a sharp hook. There was even a faint dark green light flashing on it.

"What is this thing?" Bai Suqing let out a cry of surprise.

When he saw this huge snake, an ancient text flashed across Lu Yu's mind.

"The Mountain and Sea Scripture says that the Eastflow flows into the great river, and there are many strange snakes in it."

Back then, the Qin Emperor had given a portion of his memories to Lu Yu, including many of the things he had seen and heard in the Demonic Land.

Lu Yu had sorted them out and finally formed the Mountain and Sea Scripture, which contained many creatures that lived in the Demonic Land.

"This snake is called the hook snake, and it is extremely poisonous. I actually met this kind of thing here!" Lu Yu was shocked, and he immediately pulled away from the hook snake with Bai Suqing.

If it was in the past, Lu Yu's golden palm print would have probably turned this hook snake into a pile of minced meat on the spot.

However, Lu Yu was still injured and could not fight. Furthermore, his physical strength was suppressed, so it was very difficult for him to tangle with this huge monster.

"Let's go!"

The two of them did not hesitate at all and turned around to run.

However, with this movement, even more rustling sounds came from the originally quiet forest.

What made Lu Yu's scalp tingle was that in the surrounding dark forest, there were actually countless snake bodies covered in scales that were crawling and swimming around.

There was actually more than one!

"No wonder there is no other beast's aura here. It turns out that they have broken into the nest of snakes!"

Lu Yu was shocked, and he ran wildly with Bai Suqing, not daring to stop at all.

However, the huge hook snakes in front of them seemed to have long since set their eyes on them. Their sharp tails that were filled with poison followed the whistling of the wind as they rushed towards the two of them.

Crack! Crack!

The branches of the many towering trees in the surroundings could not withstand the terrifying power and were forcefully broken.

These hook snakes not only had astonishing speed, but their strength was also extremely strong. In an instant, they had arrived.

"Let's go!"

At this critical moment, Lu Yu did not care about anything else. He grabbed Bai Suqing's hand and rushed towards the direction of the bright light.

At this moment, his speed had erupted to its limit. No one knew better than him how poisonous these hook snakes were. If they were to get tangled up by them, even with the Martial Saint's recovery ability, it would be useless.

Suddenly, at the end of the road in front of them, a dazzling white light appeared. Looking into the distance, it was actually a plain.

"That is …" Lu Yu was shocked. At this moment, he did not think too much about it and rushed forward with Bai Suqing.

Behind the two of them, the hook snakes were already on the verge of going crazy. Their swimming speed became even faster.

"Those hook snakes don't seem to want us to pass through there." Thinking of this, Lu Yu suddenly felt a sense of hope.

He brought Bai Suqing and quickly rushed out of the forest's range. The place where they landed was soft and soft. It was actually a vast desert.

"How did we get into the desert?" Whether it was Lu Yu or Bai Suqing, they were all shocked by the scene in front of them.

This change was too sudden. It was clearly a dense forest a second ago, but in the next second, it had turned into a vast desert.

"Hiss —"

Countless hook snakes rushed to the edge of the forest and the desert. They let out a terrifying cry, but they seemed to be afraid of something and did not dare to approach.

A pair of ferocious and bloodthirsty eyes stared at the two of them through the forest. However, they did not approach at all. After observing the two of them for a long time, the hook snakes finally dispersed.

"They left? Could it be that there is something in this desert that they are afraid of?" Bai Suqing said in shock.

Lu Yu's eyes flashed with a trace of light, "The hook snakes like water, so they usually do not walk in the desert. However, if they want to hunt, they definitely won't care about these things. We should be careful."

Turning around, it was obvious that it was impossible.

Now, they could only forcefully barge into this desert. Lu Yu first locked onto the location, and the two of them advanced in the east direction.

After walking for a long time, they finally reached the depths of the desert and saw the scene there.2

In the desert, there was actually an enormous temple standing tall. It was built on a tall platform, and the long stairs led to the depths of the temple. It was majestic and imposing.
