Unparalleled Evildoer

Chapter 98 Dragon-headed giant turtle emerges from the water

Wuzhan didn't know how many days of journey it would take to reach the sealed place described by Bixia. Bixia didn't tell him, and he didn't want to ask.

Wuzhan knew that Bixia must have believed the rumor that he had unlocked the seal of Xingtian. Since the seal she mentioned was related to Gun, it must be the seal of God. Since Bixia couldn't unlock it, how could he do it? He agreed because he felt guilty and had no choice. Now he could only take one step at a time.

Bixia stared at Wuzhan for a long time, then suddenly threw a cloak to him, returned to the cabin and sat quietly, and the boat began to move steadily again.

Wuzhan picked up the cloak with a faint fragrance, said thank you, and put it on. It just happened to cover his upper body and made him much warmer. Wuzhan knew that he was afraid that his condition would worsen and he would not be able to walk.

……

The bright moon has risen to the middle of the sky. The boat is sailing on the wide river. The mountains and plains are far away and the water is flowing steadily. Occasionally, the roar of wild beasts can be heard, but they are also faint and tired. Wuzhai sits alone at the bow of the boat and he doesn't know when he closed his eyes.

"Roar..." A long, sharp roar broke the silence, stirring up a cold wind and causing ripples on the river surface. Wuzhan suddenly opened his eyes and saw a hundred-foot-high water column rising in the distance. Under the moonlight, it flashed silver light like a dragon emerging from the water, and suddenly, it fell into the water with a splash.

Wuzhan knew that with such an ear-piercing roar and such a high column of water, there must be a ferocious water monster lurking beneath the river. He immediately sensed a dark shadow surging under the boat, ready to jump out at any time.

Bixia had already stood behind Wuzhe, with her bamboo hat off. Her face was extremely beautiful under the moonlight. She frowned and stared at the rippling water surface, and said in a deep voice, "Finally found it!"

Wuzhan immediately understood why Bixia appeared here. It turned out that she was looking for a monster in the river. He wanted to ask what kind of monster it was so that he could be prepared. But he felt that it was unnecessary. He thought, "Since she dares to look for it, she must have the ability to subdue it. Then everything will be clear. Why bother asking?" He felt relieved and waited and saw.

The river surface returned to calm, as if the scene just now had never happened, and the lone boat was getting closer and closer to that location.

Suddenly, bubbles gurgled from the water in the distance, and splashes of water appeared. Bixia said in a deep voice, "Stay here and hold on tight!" After that, she formed a seal with one hand, and a ray of green light shot into the water in front of the boat. The green light spread out and wrapped around the bottom of the boat, and the boat stopped.

Bixia's graceful figure flashed, her feet surrounded by green light, and she landed lightly on the water, as if she had landed on the ground, without her feet getting wet. She held a green sword in her hand, and approached cautiously.

Seeing that she was about to reach the point where the water was rolling, Bixia stopped and stared into the water. The water also stopped splashing at this time, as if it had sensed Bixia's murderous intent. Before Bixia could see the underwater situation clearly, "Roar..." accompanied by a piercing sound, a column of water several meters wide gushed out from under Bixia's feet. Bixia hurriedly flew backwards to avoid the column of water. Then, Bixia saw a pair of fierce eyes flashing under the water and rushing towards her quickly. Bixia did not dare to delay. She lightly stepped on her feet, jumped high, and flew backwards.

With a bang, a huge dragon head broke out of the water, creating waves more than ten feet high, and opened its huge mouth, almost swallowing Bixia.

Bixia flew backward in the flying water, with water droplets splashing all over her body. She looked closely and saw that the huge dragon head was shaped like a horse's head, with fierce eyes like wheels, horns like several feet long black iron scimitars, a huge mouth covered with fangs, and dragon whiskers winding like a dancing long snake. The skin was like a green snake, flashing with cold light, and it looked ferocious and hideous. Seeing Bixia flying away, the dragon raised its dragon neck that was more than ten feet high, swooped down, and swallowed Bixia like an ant.

Bixia had never seen such a huge creature. Although she did not appear surprised, she was horrified in her heart. She flew more than ten feet away and saw the dragon head coming. Green energy was shining all around her body, and the edge of her emerald green sword suddenly increased by more than thirty feet. Her graceful figure flew on one foot on the water surface, and like a flying swallow, she jumped high up, her green clothes dancing, and rushed towards the huge mouth. Seeing that she was about to be swallowed by the huge mouth, Bixia's graceful figure spun and climbed up again to avoid the fangs and tongue. The green sword edge drew a crescent shape, sweeping across the fierce eyes, as fast as lightning.

The dragon head saw the sharp green light slashing towards its left eye, and the dragon head suddenly lowered, and the sharp dragon horn, with a cold light, suddenly slashed towards Bixia who was close at hand. With a "bang!", the green sword hit the dragon horn, and the green light burst out, dimming the bright moon. Bixia was shocked. The dragon horn was as sharp as a knife, as hard as iron, and powerful enough to move a mountain. Even though she was full of true energy, she still couldn't resist it at all. Fortunately, her body was light, and she used the force to flip back, drawing a beautiful arc in the night sky, and falling to the water like a crane with wings spread.

The dragon head was shocked by the sword light of Biqi, and roared madly, attacking without slowing down, like a mountain pressing down on the top, crashing into the falling Bixia. Bixia stepped on the water with both feet, and her body slid backwards, splashing water to both sides. Seeing the roaring dragon head coming, she did not hesitate, and flew lightly, like an arrow, avoiding the whistling giant.

With a loud 'bang', the dragon head plunged into the water, stirring up a water wall dozens of feet high that exploded in all directions. Before the water splashed down, the dragon head rose up again, like a towering pillar. It identified the direction, tilted its head back, opened its huge mouth, and swallowed the still speeding Bixia.

Bixia had circled to the side, and seeing the huge mouth swallowing towards her, she frowned, but instead of retreating, she advanced. A ray of green light pierced towards the broad dragon neck at an extremely fast speed. Before the huge mouth could change direction, the green sword had already pierced into the thick green scales.

The monster's neck was pierced by the sword. It roared in pain, and its long tongue flew out, hitting the tiny figure under it with a tremendous force.

Bixia risked her life by stabbing the dragon's neck, intending to cut the wound open, but the green skin was too strong, and it was difficult to cut with the sword. Seeing the red tongue coming at her, she quickly drew out her sword and stepped forward in an attempt to dodge.

When the monster saw Bixia dodge its long tongue, it became extremely angry. It roared angrily, shot out a huge stream of water from its mouth, and roared towards Bixia.

Bixia felt the overwhelming water column behind her. The area was too large for her to dodge, so she quickly turned over, her sword flying. A dazzling green light appeared in front of her and covered her. This move was Taishan's unique skill "Dai Shi Gan Dang". The surging water column hit the green light and instantly submerged it. There was a loud rumbling sound. After a moment, the green light flashed and flew out of the water column. Bixia was panting, with crystal water beads hanging on her jade cheeks, not knowing whether it was sweat or splashing water droplets.

Even though he was calm and unperturbed by the sight of such a monster, he could not help but feel fear. He stood on the lonely boat, his body swaying with the ups and downs of the waves. Although this monster was not as terrifying as the Earth-Devouring Beast, it was no less ferocious, especially since it appeared on the boat. If the monster attacked, there would be no escape, and he would be swallowed up immediately. He secretly hoped that if Bixia could not defeat him, she would quickly take him away.

As he was concentrating on paying attention, he felt the water under the boat recede in all directions, and a large black shadow slowly emerged from the water and actually lifted the wooden boat up. Looking around, he saw that the exposed black shadow looked like a bare giant rock. As the wooden boat tilted and rose, the exposed area gradually expanded, like an isolated island protruding from the river. The wooden boat began to shake, and Wuzhan was unsteady on his feet. He hurriedly leaned over to grab the boat wood. He didn't know why this strange thing happened suddenly, and wanted to call out to Bixia, but he saw that Bixia was blocked by the monster and had no time to pay attention to him. It was useless to call out. With a "puff", the green air under the wooden boat burst, and the wooden boat began to slide down along the bare giant rock. Wuzhan saw that it was not good, so he hurriedly jumped off the wooden boat and fell on the rock. He grabbed a crack while sliding and stabilized his body. Looking around, the isolated boat slid far into the water, and the crown-shaped island with a radius of several hundred feet was completely exposed above the water. Combined with the appearance of the dragon head, Wuzhan thought to himself: "Could this monster be a dragon-headed giant turtle?"

Legend has it that this giant turtle with a dragon head can live for ten thousand years. It is so huge that it often blocks rivers and causes flooding. As early as the time of Emperor Shun, it was hunted on a large scale and became extinct. I didn't expect to see it in the Yellow River.

The giant turtle roared ferociously, blood oozing from its huge neck which suddenly rose dozens of feet high. The huge turtle shell under its neck stood tall in front of Bixia. Bixia was horrified, thinking that it would be difficult to kill the giant turtle in front of her by herself.

It is said in recent months that a large number of ships and fishermen along the Yellow River suddenly disappeared, and several villages were mysteriously flooded overnight. Nearby villagers heard sharp roars at night and suspected that there was a water monster in the river. Fishermen along the river did not dare to go down to the river to fish, and people moved away from the riverbank. After hearing the news, Bixia went down the mountain alone, took a wooden boat, and searched upstream all the way to Longxi, but did not find any trace of the water monster, so she turned back. Unexpectedly, she found it here.

Although she knew it must be a fierce monster, she didn't expect it to be so huge and ferocious. She frowned and glanced at the turtle shell, and saw that the wooden boat had disappeared. Wuzhan was lying on the turtle shell, looking towards her. Although she knew he was in danger, she was unable to extricate herself and take him to a safe place.

The giant dragon head opened its huge mouth, descended from the sky, roared and swallowed Bixia. Bixia had no choice but to fly away to dodge. When the giant turtle saw Bixia dodge, its huge mouth suddenly stopped in mid-air, and its whiskers more than ten feet long rolled wildly and swung towards the retreating Bixia.

Bixia felt the long whiskers sweeping towards her from both sides and had no way to retreat. She hurriedly circulated her true Qi throughout her body. When she was about to be hit by the thick and hard long whiskers, she suddenly jumped up to avoid the long whiskers whizzing past. The long whiskers crisscrossed under her body and hit the water with a "bang", splashing water everywhere. Before Bixia fell, the huge mouth was already within reach, with a fishy smell in the air. The long tongue shot out angrily, wanting to smash her to pieces. Bixia was in the air, dancing with the long sword, and a green light became stronger. Suddenly, eighteen green sword auras flew out to meet the long tongue. This was the Taishan sword skill "Eighteen Plates Sun", which was sharp and swift.

Eighteen sword energies instantly hit the attacking long tongue, "Puff!" continuous sounds, green light flew, blood foam flew, the giant turtle roared in pain, and quickly curled up its long tongue and retracted it. Then, its long whiskers swung to both sides of Bixia. While falling, the figure suddenly turned over, and her body was like a leaf. She leaned over to avoid the first long whisker and leaned over to avoid the second long whisker. Before she could stabilize her body, a huge water column roared in. Bixia had no way to avoid it, so she could only hold the long sword horizontally in front of her body, and the green air protected her body.

'Boom...' The mighty force of the water hit the beautiful figure. Bixia's whole body shook violently, her bones were about to break, her internal organs were churning, and her body was knocked hundreds of feet away before she stabilized herself. Her chest was suffocated, and the blood rushed up. With a 'puff' sound, she spurted out a mouthful of blood mist, her face was pale, she bit her thin lips tightly, and stared coldly at the furious dragon-headed giant turtle.
