Tianying hurriedly took out a small shovel and tried to pick the fruits, but was stopped by Lu Xuanxin. Her eyes flashed with vigilance and caution, as if she had sensed some danger.

"Be careful! Such precious things must be guarded by magical beasts." Her voice was solemn and serious, and she was obviously full of worry and anxiety about this picking operation.

Tianying looked around cautiously, but found nothing. She felt an inexplicable doubt and uneasiness in her heart, as if she was shrouded by some unknown force.

"Xuanxin, doesn't this spiritual treasure have a guardian beast?" There was some hesitation and uncertainty in her voice, and it was obvious that she was full of doubts and confusion about this picking operation.

Lu Xuanxin also felt strange. She searched carefully again and again, and also used her spiritual sense to explore, but still found nothing. She felt an inexplicable doubt and uneasiness in her heart, as if she was disturbed by some unknown force.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it." She murmured to herself, trying to comfort herself from the anxiety and uneasiness in her heart. However, her eyes still flashed with vigilance and caution, as if she was ready to deal with unknown dangers at any time.

At this moment, a green arrow suddenly flew out from the pool and headed straight for Tianying. The arrow was extremely fast and had a fierce momentum, as if it was going to kill Tianying with one strike.

"Be careful!" Lu Xuanxin had been on alert the whole time, and immediately shouted when she saw this. At the same time, she swung out a spiritual wind blade to cut down the green arrow. Her movements were swift and agile, as if they had been tempered by thousands of hammers.

Tianying was already a three-star spiritual master, and her reaction was extremely fast. She dodged the green arrow the moment it shot up. Her eyes flashed with surprise and vigilance, and she was obviously full of doubts and uneasiness about this sudden attack.

"Sizzle!" After missing the first shot, the green arrow bounced up again after falling to the ground, and this time it shot towards Lu Xuanxin. The arrow seemed to have a spirit, chasing Lu Xuanxin closely.

Lu Xuanxin was more agile and had moved away when the green arrow was first launched. She stared at the small figure warily, trying to see its true face.

"It's a water arrow snake!" When the green arrow landed again, they finally saw its true face - a small snake as thin as a chopstick and about half a meter long. This kind of snake often hides in the water and is difficult to detect. Although it is not a real monster, its speed is not inferior to that of a three-star monster, and it is good at surprise attacks, which is difficult for ordinary people to guard against.

"Hiss!" The little snake didn't hit the target twice, and didn't continue to attack. Instead, it stood up, and its green eyes scanned back and forth between the two women. Its eyes flashed with cunning and ferocious light, as if it was ready to launch the next attack at any time.

"Xuan Xin, I feel like it... has a soul?" Tian Ying was frightened by this inexplicable feeling, and she involuntarily approached Xuan Xin, wanting to find out what was going on. Her eyes wandered over the water arrow snake, and the snake's eyes seemed to reveal an unusual agility, which made her feel a little cold.

"Hiss!" The water arrow snake suddenly stuck out its head, revealing half of its body. Its scales flashed coldly under the sunlight, as if warning Tianying not to act rashly.

"This water arrow snake actually has a soul? There must be some treasure hidden at the bottom of the pool!" Xuan Xin was not afraid, but her eyes lit up, with a gleam of curiosity in her eyes. She frowned slightly, as if thinking about something, and then relaxed her brows and decided to explore further.

"Xiao Xuanxin, what problems have you encountered?" Gui Jianchou came over from a distance. He was tall and had a somewhat unruly smile on his face. He asked loudly. His voice echoed in the air, sounding particularly loud.

"Hiss!" The water arrow snake became even more angry when it heard the voice of the ghost. It slapped the ground with its tail, raising dust, and jumped up and pounced on Tianying. Its movements were swift and fierce, like a flash of lightning.

Tianying reacted quickly, a red light flashed in his hand, and his spiritual power condensed into a sword. The sword body emitted a faint red light and instantly slashed at the water arrow snake. But at this moment, something unexpected happened!

Two more water arrow snakes shot out from the pool, their speed so fast that it was shocking, and they headed straight for Tianying. Their eyes revealed the same agility and anger, as if they were driven by some kind of power.

"Sister Shuang, be careful!" Xuan Xin was horrified. She quickly gathered her spiritual power and turned it into a sharp wind blade, slashing at the two water arrow snakes. At the same time, she rushed towards Tian Ying like a cannonball, trying to help her resist the attack.

When Gui Jianchou heard the shout, he immediately sped up and rushed over. With his agile figure, he reached Xuanxin's side in a few steps. Shen Longyuan also dropped his fishing gear and ran over, his face full of anxiety and worry.

This water arrow snake seemed to have real intelligence, and could dodge attacks flexibly in the air. It cleverly resolved the attacks of Xuanxin and Tianying, and instead turned around and launched a fierce attack on them. Their movements were swift and accurate, and each attack was aimed directly at the vital points.

Tianying seized the opportunity and quickly retreated, escaping from the encirclement of the snakes. She panted, her face pale, and said to Xuanxin: "Did we break into a snake nest?" Her voice was trembling, and it was obvious that she was frightened by the attack just now.

"I'm afraid that's true." Xuan Xin stared at the water, which was turbulent, as if hiding a huge terror. Her eyes revealed a bit of solemnity and worry, and she was obviously aware of the seriousness of the situation.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" Gui Jianchou arrived and asked Xuanxin with concern. He was relieved to see that she was okay. But he still looked around vigilantly, fearing that there would be more danger. However, they didn't notice that there was a snake in the bushes staring at them, and the snake's eyes revealed a bit of cunning and viciousness.

"Be careful!" Xuan Xin's face suddenly changed. She was keenly aware of the snake's presence. She pushed Gui Jianchou away and gathered a flame shield to protect him. The flame shield emitted a blazing light, protecting Gui Jianchou firmly inside.

The snake attacked Gui Jianchou but was blocked by the Flame Spirit Shield. It hissed angrily and twisted its body to avoid the flames. Its eyes revealed a bit of fear and anger, and it was obviously frightened by the power of the Flame Spirit Shield.

Xuan Xin saw this and had an idea. She found out that these snakes were afraid of fire, so she removed the flame shield and used the flame to surround the snakes. The flame was like a fire dragon, tightly wrapping the snakes, making it unable to escape.

"Hiss!" The snake's voice was full of fear, sadness, and begging for mercy. Xuan Xin seemed to understand its voice, her face changed, and she pulled Tian Ying and Gui Jianchou back. An inexplicable emotion surged in her heart, with both sympathy for the snake and vigilance against unknown dangers.

But it was too late, or perhaps they realized it too late. The water suddenly surged, and countless water arrow snakes shot out like raindrops, with a fishy wind blowing in the face and water vapor pressing in. Their eyes revealed the same agility and anger, as if they were driven by some force to kill the invaders.

"Quick! Flame Spirit Shield!" Xuan Xin shouted anxiously, and at the same time he had already propped up the Flame Spirit Shield to protect the three people. The Flame Spirit Shield was like a solid barrier, firmly protecting the three people inside and resisting the fierce attack of the water arrow snake.

"Shen Longyuan, don't come over!" Tian Ying saw Shen Longyuan rushing over and shouted hurriedly. There was a bit of anxiety and worry in her voice, fearing that Shen Longyuan would also be attacked by the water arrow snake. Shen Longyuan stopped, not because he didn't want to help, but because he was also being stared at by the snake. His face was pale, and his eyes revealed a bit of fear and helplessness.

Tianying looked at Xuanxin anxiously: "Xuanxin, what should we do? Shen Longyuan is not of fire attribute, he will be in danger." There was a bit of trembling and pleading in her voice, and she was obviously very worried about Shen Longyuan's safety.

"Shen Longyuan, quickly use the earth wall and earth arrows to resist!" Xuan Xin was quick-witted. She knew that Shen Longyuan was of earth attribute. Earth can overcome water, and these water arrow snakes should be able to be restrained by earth arrows. There was a bit of firmness and determination in her voice, and it was obvious that she had come up with a countermeasure.

But Shen Longyuan was at a loss: "Sister Xuanxin, I don't know how to do it! Not everyone can be as proficient in magic as you." There was a hint of helplessness and bitterness in his voice, and he was obviously very frustrated with his own incompetence.

Xuan Xin then remembered that she was practicing the Transformation Technique of the Chaos Heart Sutra, which allowed her to control objects and transform. She had forgotten this and suddenly became anxious. She looked at Shen Longyuan's helpless eyes, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart. She knew that she could no longer hide it and had to do her best to save Shen Longyuan.

"Brother Jianchou, hold on to the flame shield!" Xuanxin shouted to Gui Jianchou. Her voice was firm and resolute, and she had obviously made a decision. She knew that she could no longer hide her full attributes and had to go all out to deal with the crisis at hand.

Although Old Lady Li had warned her not to expose all her attributes easily, she could no longer care about that at the moment. She first asked Gui Jianchou to hold up the flame shield to protect the three of them, and then quickly formed seals and chanted a spell. Her fingers drew complex trajectories in the air, and she muttered something, as if she was summoning some mysterious power.

"Earth Spirit! Follow!" Xuan Xin shouted and stomped the ground. Invisible waves spread through the soil, bringing Shen Longyuan from a distance to them in an instant. The power of the earth spirit was like an invisible big hand, holding Shen Longyuan firmly in its hand, and then instantly pulling him to Xuan Xin's side.

However, Xuanxin also used up a lot of her spiritual energy. She became pale and coughed, almost falling down. Tianying quickly supported her and asked anxiously, "Xuanxin! Are you okay?" Her voice was filled with anxiety and worry, and it was obvious that she was very concerned about Xuanxin's safety.

Xuan Xin shook her head to indicate that she was fine, then sat down to recover her spiritual power. This time she had consumed too much energy. If it was just for her own escape, she might have been able to retain some strength, but now she had almost exhausted all her strength to save Shen Longyuan. Her face was as pale as paper, and her breathing was a little rapid. It was obvious that she needed some time to recover her spiritual power.

The three looked at Xuanxin worriedly, not daring to disturb her, and could only deal with the attacks of the surrounding snakes. They knew that they could only rely on themselves now. Guijianchou waved the big knife in his hand and cut off the water arrow snakes one by one; Tianying condensed his spiritual power and turned it into ice arrows, shooting at the water arrow snakes; and Shen Longyuan, although he did not know magic, he also bravely picked up a big stone and smashed it at the water arrow snake. The three of them cooperated with each other to resist the attack of the water arrow snake. Although the situation was still critical, none of them chose to give up. Because they knew that as long as they were united, there would be no difficulties that could not be overcome.

After a while, Lu Xuanxin gradually came to his senses. He took a few deep breaths, as if he had sucked all the tense atmosphere around him into his chest, and then slowly exhaled, as if he had dispelled all his worries. He took out two three-star elixirs again, put them into his mouth without hesitation, and began to refine and absorb them. His face looked particularly resolute under the warm light of the elixir, and his eyes flashed with an unyielding light.

When he opened his eyes, the scene in front of him made his heart tighten. Gui Jianchou's face was as pale as a piece of paper, and sweat rolled down like pearls that had broken off the string. His hand that was outputting spiritual power was trembling slightly, and it was obvious that he was already at the end of his strength. Lu Xuan felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart. This usually cheerful partner actually showed such a fragile side at this moment.

He turned to the battlefield and saw Tian Ying and Shen Longyuan fighting hard. They killed several water arrow snakes, but in front of the dense swarm of snakes, their efforts were like a drop of water in the ocean, insignificant. The swarm of snakes seemed endless, and every time they swung their swords to kill, more snakes would surge up, making people feel desperate.

"Xuanxin, this is not a solution. Sooner or later, we will run out of energy and die here." Tianying was slightly relieved when she saw Lu Xuanxin wake up, but her tone was still full of worry and anxiety. Her clothes were soaked with sweat and stuck to her body, revealing her tired but tenacious figure.
