C896 Black river
Bloody Hand nodded. In his previous plan, he had already touched the surrounding terrain once, so he understood this Black River.
It wasn't because there was no way to bypass this Black River, but rather, that it could only be bypassed in a completely opposite direction.
By the time Qi Tianyu and the others had bypassed the Black River, Ao Bai would already be nowhere to be found.
Therefore, he might as well take a risk. This way, the time that he needed would be much longer than taking a detour.
As a King of the Ao Yue Kingdom, Ao Bai was naturally well aware of the terrain of his own land. When he first came out of the spatial teleportation, he did not know where he had fallen to;
He knew that if Qi Tianyu and the others wanted to chase him, they would have to cross over a black wall or choose to go around it. This way, Qi Tianyu and the others wouldn't be able to catch up to him so quickly.
Thinking like this, Ao Bai set up a simple Barrier near him and started to circulate his energy to heal his injuries.
The accident that happened when he fell out of the Spatial Array was too sudden, Ao Bai was not prepared for it. This fall had injured Ao Bai's internal organs, if he did not heal in time, Ao Gu would not be able to escape for more than a few steps.
Qi Tianyu and the others quickly chased after Ao Bai. Before they even neared the Black River, they had already heard the intense sound of waves splashing in the water.
"Pa, pa, pa ?" The waves were crashing against the shore one after another. Although the river looked calm in the distance, the waves near the shore were even faster than the waves.
It wasn't hard to imagine how dark it was under the water.
At this time, the sky had already turned slightly white, but the river surface was still pitch-black, with no end in sight.
No matter how strange the Black River was, Qi Tianyu and the rest still had to take a risk and pass through.
"Rumor has it that the River Flame of the Black River is extremely strange, and contains a mysterious power. If one doesn't touch it soon, they will lose their ability to resist, and directly sink into the water." The Blood Rogue continuously told Zhu Liner and the others all the information she knew.
"Moreover, this kind of strange river actually harbors a unique fierce beast, the Black Fish Beast. There was a name of fish, but it was a real monster. It looked extremely ugly, but its might was extremely powerful.
From ancient times until now, after tens of thousands of cultivators who had come to investigate the river had sunk into the river, they were torn to death by Black Fish Beast and then swallowed into their stomachs. "
Qi Tianyu added with a serious expression on his face. In his past life, there was no such memory as having this strand of Black River, let alone any Black Fish Beast.
Presumably, this Black River was also the result of the Black Dragon's failure. After the matter with the Ao Yue Kingdom settled, Qi Tianyu thought that it was time to walk around the upstream of this Black River.
"You guys be careful. Follow behind me and use the Spiritual Energy to fly across the river. Remember to stay as far away from the water as possible. I'll go scout ahead." Qi Tianyu instructed, and took the lead to fly out.
The width of the river surface was over a hundred meters, and as long as Qi Tianyu and the rest used their full strength to fly across it, it would only take a few seconds.
Of course, this was under the premise that no unforeseen circumstances would occur.
However, the Black River was not so easy to let Qi Tianyu and the others pass.
Not long after Qi Tianyu flew to the sky, "Bang ?" A gigantic monster suddenly broke out of the water, opened its bloody mouth and directly rushed towards Qi Tianyu.
Qi Tianyu was shocked, the appearance of the monster was too sudden, causing him to be caught off guard. Fortunately, Qi Tianyu had already paid full attention to his surroundings, and the moment the monster broke through the water, Qi Tianyu had already reacted.
Qi Tianyu's body prepared for danger faster than his brain could think, it was purely a reaction.
This Black Fish Beast was completely black, and only with its bell-like big and red mouth, Qi Tianyu could vaguely make out its facial features.
Qi Tianyu instantly activated the Energy of Human Body's Shackle on his feet, he agilely changed his footwork and landed on the Black Fish Beast's face, borrowing the momentum to jump back on the shore.
"Tianyu, are you alright?" Brother Qi, are you alright? " Although Zhu Liner and the rest were mentally prepared, they were still shocked. How did this Black Fish Beast appear so soundlessly?
Qi Tianyu shook his head, "I'm fine."
Then, he turned his head, his cold gaze meeting the eyes of the Black Fish Beast within the Black River.
Seeing that his attack did not work, the Black Fish Beast glared at Qi Tianyu and the rest as it slowly sank into the flames. It did not even cause a trace of water, as though its appearance was just an illusion of Qi Tianyu.2
If he did not personally witness that soul-stirring scene, Qi Tianyu truly thought that all of this was just an illusion.
"What's going on? Why did I not sense any traces of Black Fish Beast when I released it? Could it be that it could have slipped away that fast?" Tang Yiyue did not believe it and released the Spiritual Energy to probe a few more times, but to no avail.
"It's not that it's moving fast, if I'm not guessing wrong, it's still hiding under the water, waiting for us to send it back for fast food." Qi Tianyu said as he coldly observed the water's edge.
"How is this possible?" Tang Yiyue was in utter disbelief. One must know that Human Cultivator was beside them and was unable to hide his aura, let alone such a huge Black Fish Beast.
"There should be some kind of Forbidden Power on the surface of this Black River. It's precisely because of this kind of Forbidden Power that this Black Fish Beast is able to run rampant within this Black River. It's quite interesting."
If not for this, how could Qi Tianyu have nearly been injured by the Black Fish Beast that suddenly appeared?
"In other words, there are countless Black Fish Beast like the one just now within this Black River." The Bloody Hand immediately understood what Qi Tianyu had said.
Qi Tianyu nodded his head, "That's right, this river seems calm, but I wonder how many Black Fish Beast are waiting for us to fill the gaps between their teeth."
After saying that, Qi Tianyu stared at the surface of the river, deep in thought.
"What do we do if it's so painful? We can't touch the water from the Black River and there's a hidden danger lurking in the river. Can it be that we won't be able to pass by until we kill all these Black Fish Beast?"
Zhu Liner's delicate little face revealed a conflicted expression. This kind of situation would take too much time, it would be better to just take a detour and come here.
Let's first let them go, then we can slowly deal with them when we have time in the future. Let's first let them wander around in the Black River for a while. "
"Then Brother Qi, what should we do to be able to pass this Black River?" Bloody Hand could not help but ask, in his opinion, it was impossible for them to fly without killing the Black Fish Beast.
