Chapter 165 The Black Fish and the Black Dragon are fighting for territory at Wanlv Lake.
A group of cultivators rushed forward and pushed their way through the crowd.
In her previous life, Zhong Lingxin had helped her grandmother set up a stall and knew that this was a trick used by thieves to create chaos. She did not want to get entangled with these thieves, so she lifted her leg and released the cultivator she was stepping on.
Just then, the patrol team arrived and apprehended the thief who had just been released by Zhong Lingxin.
The thief's accomplices dared not confront the patrol team directly; they all glared at Zhong Lingxin with resentment before quietly retreating.
Zhong Lingxin smiled; he had been targeted by a thief.
A cultivator who had packed up his stall quietly reminded Zhong Lingxin: "Fellow Daoist, be careful. This group of thieves is a notorious gang of rogue cultivators in this city. They'll do anything. Fellow Daoist, if you have friends, stay with them. If you don't, leave quickly. Don't stay in this city. They're local bullies; you can't beat them."
Zhong Lingxin thanked the monk who reminded her.
Since it has already happened, there's no use in being afraid now, so she might as well just do what she needs to do.
However, as she walked, she also paid attention to what was behind her, and sure enough, there were always one or two cultivators following her.
She pretended not to know and walked straight ahead. Once she left the stall area, Wanlv Lake was right in front of her.
Several monks were chatting and laughing as they walked toward the small island in the lake.
Zhong Lingxin saw the lush green islands in the lake and was also inspired to visit. She bought a map, walked through the covered walkway, and headed towards the center of the lake.
Behind her, a monk quietly sent a message to his companion.
Zhong Lingxin pretended not to know and continued walking forward.
The small islands in Wanlv Lake are truly beautiful. Newly built pavilions and towers are nestled among weeping willows and blooming flowers, and small boats glide gently across the lake. You can unconsciously immerse yourself in the serene and spiritual atmosphere, and feel relaxed all over.
Because of the exhibition, many monks came to the island to visit.
Zhong Lingxin walked towards the secluded and sparsely populated areas, gradually moving away from the crowd.
The cultivators following behind her were secretly delighted.
This guy is obviously a cultivator with little experience, thinking he can defeat a whole group of them by himself.
They don't even realize that this is their territory, and they can call as many brothers as they want.
That damned monk dared to bring their brothers in; they'd kill him!
As darkness fell, Zhong Lingxin glanced at the map in her hand again, seemingly considering whether to go back.
Several monks who had been following her quietly surrounded her.
Zhong Lingxin's eyes seemed to hold a hint of nervousness and a touch of secret delight.
Several cultivators who had been following them sneered and stopped pretending. Two of them revealed their Golden Core stage cultivation and strode over to surround them.
Panic seemed to appear in Zhong Lingxin's eyes as she hurriedly ran towards the forest ahead.
The cultivators who had followed them all burst into wild laughter.
run?
It's too late!
Ignoring the wild laughter behind her, Zhong Lingxin, like a frightened bird, leaped onto her flying sword and dashed towards the mountains ahead.
The cultivators who were following Zhong Lingxin all mounted their flying swords, whistled, and dispersed to surround her.
Zhong Lingxin hurriedly put down her flying sword and darted into the forest, using the trees as cover to continue running forward.
In front of her, a Golden Core cultivator swooped down with a sinister grin.
Zhong Lingxin turned around and ran back.
Another Golden Core cultivator swooped down with a sinister grin.
Cultivators also surrounded them from the left and right.
Zhong Lingxin turned around and saw that, very well, they had all caught up.
She raised both hands and shouted, "Rise!"
Soon, the catching cultivators found themselves enveloped in a thick fog.
A cultivator cursed under his breath and threw out an explosive talisman.
The exploding talisman drifted in the thick fog of the evening breeze, fell to the ground, and disappeared before his eyes.
The cultivator was greatly alarmed!
How can this be?
How come his explosive talisman didn't even explode?
The same thing happened to several other cultivators, who were also shocked.
Zhong Lingxin coldly observed the behavior of the cultivators trapped in the illusion array and gave a cold smile.
She was no longer the young Qi Refining cultivator who couldn't bear to kill her fellow disciples in the sect.
Her experiences on the ancient battlefield had hardened her heart.
The ferocious killing intent emanating from the cultivators trapped in the illusion array was tainted by the countless souls they had killed.
Therefore, Zhong Lingxin had murderous intent when they caught up with her.
With a swift movement of her right hand, she grabbed a Foundation Establishment cultivator and brought him before her. The Soul-Slaying Sword was swung out silently, instantly killing him.
With sword strike after sword strike, Zhong Lingxin quickly killed several cultivators trapped in the formation, collected their storage equipment and magic treasures, and then flicked a wisp of flame onto them, annihilating them completely without leaving any clues for anyone to investigate.
The sky has completely darkened.
Zhong Lingxin decided to spend the night on the small island in Wanlv Lake and leave the island the next morning.
She hung a small treehouse on a big tree, so she could look up at the starry sky and admire the shimmering, tranquil lake.
Around midnight, the sound of rushing water could be heard from the edge of the island.
Zhong Lingxin glanced over and saw that it was a crab that had crawled ashore from the water.
The crabs crawled extremely fast, as if something in the water was chasing and eating them.
The rushing water grew louder, and under the moonlight, layers of waves lapped against the sand and stones on the water's edge.
Not far away in the water, there seemed to be a black bulge, heading towards the shore.
A faint, oppressive aura was also approaching the shore.
Zhong Lingxin looked at the black bulge.
The dark mound drew closer to the shore, and the moonlight shone on it, giving it a dark, white glow.
It seemed to be rushing towards the shore.
Gradually, Zhong Lingxin could see clearly that behind the black bulge, there was a subtle ripple.
The ripples were very fine, but extremely fast, chasing the black bulge ahead as it fled erratically.
Zhong Lingxin became interested, sat up, and looked at the black bulge and ripples.
As we approached the shore, the dark ridge was caught up by the fine ripples.
The black bulge raised its huge tail and slammed it down behind it; it was a large black fish.
At the same time, Zhong Lingxin also saw that the fine ripples were actually a black serpent, whose head leaped out of the water and bit at the large black fish in front of it.
The black serpent's head was slapped by the tail of the large black fish, rendering it powerless to attack and forcing it to sink into the water.
The big black fish took advantage of the situation and fled forward again.
Zhong Lingxin had heard about a fourth-tier demonic beast—the Big Black Fish—in Wanlv Lake when she first arrived there.
Unexpectedly, there was also a black dragon in the lake.
It seems that the giant black fish and the black dragon are fighting for the territory of Wanlv Lake.
It was obvious that the big black fish was no match for the black dragon and was being chased and attacked.
The big black fish slammed its tail behind it several times, not caring whether it hit anything or not, and continued swimming forward.
Behind it, the black dragon stopped, revealing only two gleaming little eyes on the lake surface, staring intently at the large black fish swimming fiercely ahead.
The large black fish seemed to be injured; its swimming was somewhat unsteady, and its speed was sometimes fast and sometimes slow.
