These earth spirit crocodiles can be regarded as spirit monsters among monster beasts, that is, "spiritual monster beasts."
They have some intelligence, although not much, but it is still some, and they do not rely solely on instinct. So when they saw Gu Heng and Qin Yiyao, their bloody mouths almost opened to the sky.
mortal!
There is also one in the Nascent Soul stage!
Isn't this delivering food to the brothers?
They were so excited that they showed their sharp fangs.
Several earth spirit crocodiles exchanged glances with each other, and then pounced over excitedly!
For a few demon spirits in the Spirit Severing Stage, eating a mortal and a human girl in the Nascent Soul Stage is easy, right?
The mortal and the girl had no expression on their faces. They were probably shocked. Such fresh ingredients were standing right here. How could it be fair not to eat them?
Qin Yiyao stood silently behind Gu Heng.
Oh, a few demon spirits that had just begun to gain intelligence regarded her and her master as prey.
It's just asking for death.
She raised her eyes and glanced at the demon crocodiles rushing over, a slight sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth. She didn't need to do anything. This should be a change beyond the circumstances. The master just waved his hand and these demons would be killed.
As for Gu Heng...
He wasn't afraid at all.
Aren't these just a few crocodiles that are slightly larger in size?
Although Gu Heng seemed to hear one of them speaking human language just now, he felt that he must have heard it wrong. How could a wild beast like this have the ability to speak human language?
Although Gu Heng was worried about encountering monsters, if he did, he would not be able to deal with it with his limited skills, and he would have to use the "temporary experience voucher", but that would be such a waste!
But these are definitely not monsters.
Although he didn't know the difference between ordinary wild beasts and monster beasts, he was willing to trust his sixth sense.
If these crocodiles don't scare him...
Then it's not a monster!
So Gu Heng got ready, and prepared to take out some handy weapons from the system backpack, so as to give these crocodile brothers some painless "relief"!
But at this moment.
Suddenly a strong wind blew.
Then Gu Heng saw a woman falling from the sky, waving a long sword in her hand. With a few flashes of sword light, she chopped all the crocodiles into pieces.
He sheathed the sword smoothly and stood in front of him in a very elegant manner.
Gu Heng blinked.
This must be a monk!
"Thank you, lady warrior."Gu Heng was a little confused, but since the other party killed these crocodiles so easily without any blood on his body, he couldn't lose his manners.
This woman had a cold and sharp arrogance. After hearing Gu Heng's thanks, she nodded slightly and said softly, "It's just a small favor."
"Strange, where are you from?"
The woman raised her eyebrows slightly.
"This girl and I both came from the Sunfire Capital. We heard that there is an ancient secret palace here, so we came here to take a look. We just saw the spire of the palace, which is quite beautiful."
Gu Heng also pointed out the place and stated what he was here for.
Sincerity is a very important thing, not to mention that this woman is probably a very powerful monk and she has no ill intentions, so there is no need to tell lies.
Besides.
I just came to take a look at this ancient secret palace. I haven't done anything wrong.
"You...are a mortal?"
"Yes, judging from what you did just now, I think you are also a very powerful monk."
Gu Heng flattered the other person subtly.
Although this is of no use.
I guess a lot of people would like to praise this kind of female cultivator who is good-looking and agile in swordplay.
The woman looked at Gu Heng, then looked at Qin Yiyao behind Gu Heng, who looked like a little girl hiding in the arms of her big brother. She was a little confused.
Why would a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage hide behind a mortal?
Moreover, mortals come to such a place...
It's too dangerous.
"You'd better leave quickly. The things in this mountain are not something you two can get involved with."
The woman thought.
She couldn't figure out what kind of hermit this man was. After all, the two-man team looked a bit like a master and his apprentice, but the little girl was also in the Nascent Soul stage. Such a young Nascent Soul stage was probably rare in the Riyan Dynasty.
So her master couldn't be a mortal.
However, she didn't care what the relationship between the two was.
This place is not suitable for mortals.
Fortunately, she also has the cultivation level of the sixth level of the fusion stage, otherwise these earth spirit crocodiles in the distraction stage would be really difficult to deal with. Just now, the ancient secret palace suddenly blocked the spiritual thoughts of all the cultivators in the mountains, making it impossible for everyone to perceive.
These evil spirits must have just launched a sneak attack.
Ate a few monks.
If she had come later, both of them would have been eaten by the crocodile.
"Uh, what does this mean, lady?"
Gu Heng raised his eyebrows."That's what I meant. Leave this mountain range quickly. You don't want to be eaten by something like this, right?"
The woman pointed at the remains of the Earth Spirit Demon Crocodile on the ground and didn't want to say anything more to this mortal. Having said this, she immediately leaped into the sky and rushed towards the direction of the monks' camp.
There are already "uninvited guests" from outside in this mountain range.
Now everyone's spiritual thoughts are blocked, which is like blinding their third eye. They can only use their physical bodies to report.
In this relatively remote area, there are already demon beasts in the Spirit Severing Stage. I'm afraid that there may be a fierce battle later!
"…If you can't explain it clearly, you'll be kicked out."
Gu Heng curled his lips.
to be honest.
What's so dangerous about this ordinary beast?
At least for him, Gu Heng, this was not dangerous at all. She could cut it into pieces with just a few swords. Gu Heng himself was not a helpless person. What was the difficulty in killing a few ferocious crocodiles?
But we can't blame her. I'm afraid all the monks think the same way.
I feel that if mortals encounter any wild beast, they may not be able to deal with it.
No way.
He turned around and looked at Qin Yiyao: "Girl, what do you think, should we go back home or continue walking and take a look?"
"continue."
The little girl also said she was not afraid.
The woman who was wielding a sword just now had a familiar-looking token hanging around her waist. There was no doubt that she must be a priest or elder of the Wanjian Immortal Sect.
Of course, it's not her fault that she has no tact.
Not everyone is like Jiang Lingyun, who can see at first glance that Gu Heng actually has "problems".
Anyone or anything in this mountain that could threaten her or her good master...
I'm afraid not at all.
Moreover, since the ancient secret palace was probably summoned by Gu Heng, wouldn't it be too unfair to Master's painstaking efforts if we don't go in and find out what's going on?
"Well, let's keep on going!"
"And don't look over there, these things are always gross."
Gu Heng glanced at the crocodile carcasses scattered on the ground with some disgust and resisted the urge to retch.
He really doesn't like blood.
It would be much better to use poison.
You can also leave an intact body so that you won't become a disabled person after being buried and reincarnated.
