Mortal Mirror
#221 - Chapter 221: Horrible Creatures, Moment of Life and Death
Li Ergou was about to go and help the injured when he heard a loud noise behind him. He turned around and saw a giant tentacle emerging from the ancient well. The tentacle reached the sky, several dozen feet long and incredibly thick.
As soon as the tentacle appeared, it lashed out at the crowd below, instantly turning several constables into mincemeat with its immense force.
Then, the tentacle swept across the ground. Anyone who was too slow to escape would be sent flying. Li Ergou didn't want to die, so he ran frantically, barely dodging the attack.
But then he heard Chen Bajin's loud voice, "Holy crap, someone save me!"
Li Ergou turned to look and saw that Chen Bajin had been sent flying into the air. The guy was spitting blood and looked seriously injured.
At that moment, he fell from the sky, and the tentacle seemed to see the situation around it. It lashed out at Chen Bajin again.
If Chen Bajin, who was already seriously injured, was hit by the tentacle again, he would surely die.
Li Ergou wouldn't watch his good brother die in front of him, so he immediately summoned his Fish Scale Sword and attacked the tentacle.
The tentacle was thick-skinned and tough. The Fish Scale Sword only managed to cut a small gash in it.
But this attack angered the tentacle, and it wrapped itself around Li Ergou.
The tentacle looked clumsy, but it was actually very fast. In the blink of an eye, it was right next to Li Ergou.
Ye Wanwan and the others shouted for him to be careful. Ye Wanwan also shot three arrows in a row, but ordinary arrows had limited power and only tickled the tentacle. If she had her Divine Light Arrows, it would be a different story.
Li Ergou wanted to dodge, but he didn't expect the tentacle to be so fast, so fast that he couldn't do anything.
Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, he could only summon the Xuanwu Armor. Six pieces of Xuanwu Armor floated out and instantly wrapped around Li Ergou.
At that moment, the tentacle arrived and wrapped around Li Ergou, trying to crush him. But it didn't expect Li Ergou's Xuanwu Armor to be so strong.
Li Ergou was also giving it his all, pouring all his spiritual power into the Xuanwu Armor, even though his body was also very tough.
But if even the Xuanwu Armor couldn't withstand the tentacle's immense force, his mortal body would be even more vulnerable. The thought of being crushed into mincemeat terrified Li Ergou, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
As he and the tentacle were locked in a stalemate, a stream of light suddenly came from the sky. Before it got close, Li Ergou saw a flash of light and something flew over.
It was a small sword, only a foot long, like purple crystal.
Li Ergou was overjoyed, a savior had arrived! But before he could celebrate, the tentacle lifted him up and used him to block the small sword.
Li Ergou's eyes widened in disbelief. He thought, "Holy crap!" This fish demon is too unethical! Before he could think more, the flying sword was already close. He just hoped that the hole it made would be small, and that it wouldn't kill him.
To his surprise, the purple sword actually turned in mid-air and shot into a large tree not far away with a whoosh. With a loud boom, the tree was blasted into countless pieces.
Li Ergou swallowed, feeling grateful that he had survived a disaster. Surely good fortune would follow.
It was then that he saw the newcomer, dressed in white. It was Bai Su.
He was about to shout for help, but the tentacle suddenly contracted and retreated back into the ancient well.
This caught Li Ergou off guard, and he spat out bubbles in the water.
After recovering slightly, Li Ergou realized that he was in a huge underwater cave. The cave was huge and dark, and he didn't know where it led.
He looked down and saw a huge fish covered in dozens of tentacles. The fish was over ten feet long. It was a giant black carp, and each of its scales was the size of a dustpan.
Li Ergou was amazed. This fish was too big! He wondered how many years it had been cultivating. Seeing this fish, he couldn't help but think of the figure in the Old Dragon Pit. Perhaps that guy was even more terrifying.
Remembering that guy's warning, Li Ergou quickly shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
This big guy below was also too terrifying.
The big fish was shaking, and countless tentacles began to retract. Li Ergou realized that the tentacles were interwoven on its back, eventually forming a pair of wings.
Li Ergou struggled, but he wasn't as strong as the fish. The tentacles brought him to the fish's mouth, and the fish opened its mouth to throw him inside.
He could see circles of teeth inside the fish's mouth, which was terrifying. Li Ergou was horrified at the sight.
Just when he thought he was doomed, a sword light came from behind, and he saw a figure being dragged by the sword light, swimming over quickly.
Seeing this person, he was grateful. It was Bai Su! Could it be that this woman came to save him? What a good person! He was almost moved to tears.
But when Bai Su saw the huge fish, a look of surprise flashed across her eyes. Then, she turned around and ran away. Li Ergou thought, "Holy crap!" You're not being fair! Why did you run away? I'm here!
Perhaps Bai Su had a change of heart. She stopped and looked back. Soon, she and Li Ergou made eye contact. Li Ergou quickly waved, signaling her to save him.
But now they were underwater, and Bai Su's cultivation couldn't be fully utilized. Still, she couldn't watch Li Ergou be eaten by the fish demon, so she summoned her flying sword and slashed at the fish demon.
The fish demon paused for a moment, looking at the small flying sword, but ignored Bai Su and continued to stuff Li Ergou into its mouth.
Seeing this, Li Ergou was annoyed. In his desperation, a flash of inspiration came to him. Didn't he cultivate water-based spells? In the water, wouldn't water-based spells be more powerful?
With a thought, he formed a hand seal, and countless streams of water were stirred by him, instantly turning into a spear over ten feet long, stabbing directly into the fish's mouth.
A look of fear flashed in the fish's eyes. The spear was too big, giving it a great sense of oppression. The other tentacles didn't have time to reach out, so it had to use its tentacles to carry Li Ergou and hit the spear.
The spear looked huge, but it was just for show. Li Ergou was waiting for this opportunity. Then, he changed his hand seal, and the spear shattered into countless bubbles, making the water chaotic.
At this time, Bai Su's Frost Sword arrived. The Frost Sword was extremely sharp and was a high-level magic weapon, several times stronger than Li Ergou's Fish Scale Sword.
The sharp sword light landed on the fish demon's tentacles, and with a flash of cold light,
the thick tentacles were instantly cut off by the sword. Li Ergou was finally free. When the bubbles dissipated, Li Ergou was gone. The fish was dumbfounded.
It looked around, but couldn't find Li Ergou. It didn't stay, but angrily swam forward.
At the same time, Li Ergou and Bai Su emerged from a crack in the rock. Seeing the fish swim away, Li Ergou breathed a sigh of relief, but Bai Su told him to look up.
When he saw what was above, his body stiffened, and he felt his scalp tingle.
