Chapter 871: Blood Lobster? Lobster?!
Amethyst Elder’s purple-robed body crossed the sky, moving as fast as a meteor as he covered ten thousand miles in the sky.
The Southern Region was a wasteland at the border of the Hidden Dragon Continent. In this area, the spirit energy was thin, and the military force was low.
To Amethyst Elder, those people were stupid. However, they could never escape this stupidity unless they walked out of this place and went to a bigger world.
He knew the Heavenly Secret Saintess came from this rural, barren land. Also, he a.s.sumed that the Heavenly Secret Saintess had had a chance to get out of this rural area and be nurtured by the Heavenly Secret Holy Land, which was a great opportunity for her.
Why would she leave the Heavenly Secret Holy Land and come back to this place?
She was destroying her future.
Moving in the air, with his sight, he could see the fire of war on the lands underneath.
Thick Nether energy turned into layers of clouds, covering everything.
The manic demon scorpions swaggered around, slaughtering stupid human beings on the Southern Region.
Amethyst Elder sighed with emotion, blaming the sky as he felt pitiful for the people here.
What was the meaning of the existence of the Hidden Dragon Heaven Pa.s.s? It was to protect these areas from the Ruin Prison’s demon invasion.
However, Amethyst Elder understood clearly that the Heaven Pa.s.s Tribulation couldn’t stop those devils from Ruin Prison.
Those devils always wanted to invade this world. Once that happens, the consequence would be… more terrifying than now.
What he could do now was to protect his family and increase his cultivation base. Perhaps he could find a shelter in the future to survive.
“So… I must destroy the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk!”
Amethyst Elder’s eyes focused, looking malicious. His body crossed the sky, heading toward the Illusory Spirit Swamp.
With his cultivation base, Amethyst Elder didn’t spend much time reaching the Illusory Spirit Swamp from Light Wind Empire.
A moment later, a lake appeared in his vision. It wasn’t like what was happening in the Light Wind Empire as the demon scorpion race hadn’t attacked this place yet. Thus, the fire of the war didn’t last as long as he had imagined.
Rumble! Rumble!
Far away, immense steam rose, slapping his face.
The Illusory Spirit Swamp was near the Endless Sea. The salty smell from the sea waves made Amethyst Elder frown.
Finally, he arrived in Serpentmen City.
Compared to the imperial city of Light Wind Empire, Serpentmen City was a little plain, but it had better defense.
As soon as Amethyst Elder arrived, his eyes lit up.
It was here… Right here!
He lifted his head. A crack emerged in his palm, and a rolling, bright eye showed up.
“Yes, the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk’s aura is right in this big city!” The eye looked excited, its voice hoa.r.s.e but echoing.
“In this big city?” Amethyst Elder looked at the Serpentmen City below him, asking casually.
A moment later, he decided to plunge into the Serpentmen City.
However, all of a sudden…
Amethyst Elder lifted his head. He looked out in the distance, where a strange wave of energy was shooting into the sky.
The eyeball in his palm rolled instantly.
“That aura?! It’s… It’s… Move! Move to that fluctuating explosion! Quick!” The demon eye screamed in fright.
Amethyst Elder was perplexed. To this demon eye, what was more important than destroying the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk?
Anyway, as the demon eye asked him to go there, he would go there…
Stepping forward, his body zoomed away.
…
The lake with b.l.o.o.d.y water was so calm with little rippling.
Bu Fang sat cross-legged at one end of the boat, breathing steadily.
As for the gold shrimp that had transformed into Ao Bai and the beefy demon scorpion, both of them were sitting on the other side of the boat.
The two of them looked frightened. Watching the bubbles rising from the lake, they couldn’t help but take in breaths of cold air.
This lake was so mysterious.
Blood water. It forbade them from flying and even restrained their cultivation base…
At this moment, they couldn’t use any bit of energy in their bodies except for their body’s physical strength. As experts who got used to using energy, it was torture to them.
The small boat moved slowly and languidly, drifting toward the two ancient-looking boats.
Gurgle. Gurgle.
The bubbles arose around the boat. A moment later, shadows swarmed toward them.
Ao Bai and the demon scorpion sucked in a breath of cold air. They were scared seeing the shadows coming.
Those creatures gave them a dangerous feeling. If they fell into the lake, whatever those shadows belonged to would slaughter them instantly!
Swis.h.!.+
Blood water splashed, and a ferocious spirit beast emerged.
Ao Bai’s soul and body s.h.i.+vered. Indeed… they were that sort of brutal spirit beast!
Blood lobster!
These blood lobsters weren’t bigger than three hands, but their claws were narrow and sharp with layers of teeth. People felt cold seeing them.
The blood lobsters were almost extinct. How could they appear in this remote Southern Region?
Ao Bai was confused.
He felt lucky he didn’t fall into the water. Once he did, those blood lobsters would surround and skin him alive!
The blood lobsters lived in groups. They would tear the ones who invaded their territory into pieces, nibbling them to death.
The Endless Sea had a legend, which said that creatures should move away wherever those blood lobsters came.
However…
The Shrimp Ancestor had eliminated this blood lobster tribe in the Endless Sea. This tribe was eradicated! However, there were so many of them now in this lake inside the Southern Region.
Ao Bai’s face turned even paler.
“You stinky shrimp. You’re shrimp, and they are shrimps too. Since they’re your relatives, can you talk them out of this?” said the muscular demon scorpion, s.h.i.+vering and scared out of his wits.
Although the demon scorpion man didn’t recognize those blood lobsters, he could still feel the danger. Earlier, when he fell into the water, those creatures had given him that dangerous feeling, and the sense of imminent death made him transform back to his real body and get out of the lake immediately.
“Idiot! Are you pig?! I’m a gold shrimp. I’m not a blood lobster! If we can talk to them, why would they show their claws like that? Besides, you also got pincers, so why don’t you go and talk to them?!” Ao Bai rolled his eyes, shouting at the demon scorpion man.
Demon scorpion was dumbstruck. Having a pincer meant that they were relatives?
Where did this exotic shrimp get this logic?
On the small boat, Bu Fang immediately noticed the blood lobsters. His calm mind s.h.i.+vered, and he couldn’t help but open his eyes, watching the blood lobsters surround the boat. He looked surprised and… excited.
“Big… lobster?!”
Bu Fang was bewildered. He didn’t expect to see lobsters in this lake.
Thinking about those blood lobsters, his eyes turned even brighter. He swallowed his saliva, his Adam’s apple moving up and down.
Spicy lobster? Stewed lobster? Plain lobster? There were even thirteen flavors… So exciting!
Originally, Bu Fang thought that he would never have a chance to eat such delicacies. However, who knew this pond had so many lobsters? They were beautiful cooking ingredients.
Anyway, those lobsters may look a little big, but it didn’t affect Bu Fang’s desire for them. He was simply drooling and itching to cook them.
When Ao Bai and the demon scorpion saw Bu Fang’s expression, they became even more frightened.
Was the human scared out of his mind? What kind of expression was that?
That drooling face… What was he planning to do?! Didn’t he know that the three of them would lose their lives because of those blood lobsters?
There were so many blood lobsters surrounding them, so how could this little boat stand against them? Once those blood lobsters jumped in here, this boat would sink. And then, let alone people… even the boat would be chewed off.
This lake… was f*cking bizarre.
It was understandable that they couldn’t fly, but what about restraining their cultivation base? Moreover, even if they couldn’t use their power to cross the lake, why would this lake have so many blood lobsters?
They had to face the blood lobsters’ big pinchers without their powers… Wasn’t this delivering food from a thousand miles away?
“Human, don’t smile. You’re frightened… At this moment, those blood lobsters want to eat us. It’s not that we want to eat them! You should at least show a scared face.”
Ao Bai consoled himself, thinking that this kid could be possibly dumb.
Bu Fang indifferently looked at Ao Bai for a while as he was busy thinking of how to fish those blood lobsters.
The small boat continued to move further, but the blood lobsters that protruded above the water surface didn’t move. Their compound eyes rolled, gazing at the three fatty meat blocks on the boat.
Bu Fang furrowed his brows. However, a moment later, the corners of his mouth rose in a curve, and he took out the fis.h.i.+ng rod he had carefully stashed in his system dimensional bag.
The fis.h.i.+ng line already had a hook, so all he had to do was hook a piece of b.l.o.o.d.y spirit beast meat. After that, he wielded the rod, throwing the hook not far from him.
Rattle! Rattle!
Instantly, the blood lobsters were stirred up.
It seemed those fellows had caught the smell of blood. They hurried to rush after the hook, trying to vie for that piece of meat.
Ao Bai and the beefy demon scorpion man were bewildered. They had never thought that the human would do this…
Wait a minute!
What the f*ck did this human want to do? What was he doing?!
Fis.h.i.+ng for lobsters?!
He wanted to die!
He should stay on this boat. It seemed like those blood lobsters didn’t dare to attack them as long as they were on this boat.
However, why would this human want to fish those b.l.o.o.d.y lobsters?
He thought they were food?
Once this human fished up a mighty blood lobster to this boat, not to mention the fact that their cultivation base was restrained at the moment, the three of them would definitely become resentful souls under… those blood lobsters’ pincers!
Bu Fang didn’t react to Ao Bai’s and the muscular demon scorpion man’s frightened expressions.
Did his fis.h.i.+ng bother these two? No matter what, after he cooked a spicy lobster, they definitely won’t get a share!
Buzz…
Suddenly, his fis.h.i.+ng line became taut. He got something on his hook!
Bu Fang’s eyes brightened. A moment later, he used force.
Rattle! Rattle!
The blood-colored water splashed everywhere as the blood lobsters around went wild.
Indeed, after pulling up the fis.h.i.+ng line, Bu Fang had caught a blood lobster. Up in the air, its legs moved together with its two big pincers.
This lobster did have meat inside the sh.e.l.l!
Bu Fang’s eyes brightened.
Ao Bai and the muscular demon scorpion man were so scared that they had almost hugged each other…
That d.a.m.n human! He was simply insane!
He wanted to bury them altogether, didn’t he?
The blood lobster Bu Fang had fished up looked bewildered at first. Then, its compound eyes shot lights, and the two narrow but ma.s.sive pincers opened instantly.
As if there was some restriction, that blood lobster couldn’t attack the small boat.
However, if someone on this boat wanted to die and fish it onto this boat… that blood lobster wouldn’t hesitate to kill them all!
The fished blood lobster raised its claws, releasing a terrifying murderous aura. It was about to tear the three of them into pieces!
As the blood lobster in the sky opened its pincers and mandibles, hissing and shouting, Ao Bai turned ashen. He had never expected that he, the third crown prince of the gold shrimp tribe in the Endless Sea, would be scared by a shrimp…
That d.a.m.n guy just pulled the blood lobster up into the air!
