Chapter 142
arge that it was bigger than two elephants. The nine tentacles had a length of several dozen feet with thorns like sawtooth on them. It was a horrifying scene.
"Boom!"
One of the tentacle cut at the hill Lu Li was on. The hill quaked, and a deep gully immediately emerged on the hill. Lu Li was shocked by the sight. The strength of the Nine-tentacle Octopus was terrible. If Lu Li was cut at, he would be turned into minced flesh.
"Kill the Xuan Beast."
Lu Li waved his hand. The five Green Dwarfs behind him ran forward. They were fast. They got into the valley in a blink of an eye and rushed into the water like sharp swords.
"Hunchback Tian, you stall the Xuan Beast. Let the Green Dwarfs attack it."
Lu Li shouted. Hunchback Tian gave out a mocking smile and said, "Island Owner Lu, the Nine-tentacle Octopus has very powerful defensive abilities. Your Green Dwarfs cannot break through its defense."
Hunchback Tian was holding a golden narrow saber in his hands. He was as fast as wind despite the camel-like hunchback. He morphed into a blur of shadow and darted around the hills. He would cut at the tentacle of the octopus every now and the. Surprisingly, no mark was left on the tentacles.
"Have the Green Dwarfs to stall it. I will attack his body."
Hunchback Tian shouted. Lu Li and Patriarch Nine in the distance gave out orders at once. They had the Green Dwarfs ran about randomly around the hills nearby to attract the Nine-tentacle Octopus’ attention.
"Whoos.h.!.+"
Hunchback Tian rushed behind a hill and hid there. When the Nine-tentacle Octopus was distracted by the Green Dwarfs, he secretly rushed into the water in the valley and made his way towards the body of the octopus.
"Hiss~"
When Hunchback Tian was about the get to the body of the octopus, it was alarmed. Three tentacles smashed into the water. Hunchback Tian shot out of the water quickly, but some green fluids burst out from the dirty water. An area was tainted green.
"Well done!"
Patriarch Nine yelled. The blood of the Nine-tentacle Octopus was green. Hunchback Tian’s sneak attack was successful. As long as Hunchback Tian could successfully make several other moves, the Nine-tentacle Octopus would be dead.
"Good!"
Lu Li finally knew Hunchback Tian’s fighting ability. A warrior at the peak of the Soul Pond Realm was really powerful and fast. If Hunchback Tian were to kill Lu Li, Lu Li would be dead before he even could realize what was happening.
Hunchback Tian rushed out of the water and slashed one of the tentacles of the octopus. With the counteracting force, he rushed downward again and dived into the water. Soon, he emerged from the water. Green fluids surged out of the water below him at once.
Hunchback Tian had lived for more than 100 years. Granted, he had failed in his 80 attempts to reach the Fate Wheel Realm, but he was seasoned in fighting. He jumped around on the tentacles of the octopus and cut at the body every now and then. Clearly, he was ready to torture the octopus Xuan Beast to death.
After the time for half an incense stick to burn, the water in the valley became dark green. The octopus started slowing down in its attack. Lu Li and Patriarch Nine threw each other a glance and they started feeling relieved.
"Swoos.h.!.+"
A man flew from the distance. He ran to Patriarch Nine to report something. Patriarch Nine’ expressions changed. He shouted to Lu Li, "Island Owner, more than 10 Second-rank Xuan Beast were erupted from the volcano again. There are more Xuan Beast of the First-rank. Let Hunchback Tian take care of this side. We need to go over there and fight."
"Okay!"
Lu Li nodded. After he called the Green Dwarfs back and handed over the matter to Hunchback Tian, he ran towards the mountains at his front-left.
Water raged among the mountains. Glimpse of low rank aquatic animals could be caught in the water. Lu Li was all the more confused.
How could the volcano erupt water instead of lava? This was too weird.
The terrain of the island was not high, but was still above the level of the Thousand-island Lake. Water flows downhill. If the water had come from the Thousand-island Lake, it could not be erupted from the volcano. If so, where did the water originate from?
Lu Li went on for another three miles and saw a volcano that was not exactly high or big. A huge waterspout were coming out of the crater. He could faintly see some Xuan Beasts coming out from the water.
"So much water? Where does it come from?"
This could not be the water from the Thousand-island Lake. There was no mist accompanying the water, so it was not a sign of the volcano eruption. It was not possible to find so much water in a volcano.
Since the water did not belong to the world the Thousand-island Lake was in, could it come from another world?
Lu Li could not figure this out. He didn’t have the luxury of time to ponder about this with so many Xuan Beasts coming out. The Xuan Beasts must be wiped out now. Tribe people on the island were not relocated yet. Once the Xuan Beasts got out, it would be a catastrophe.
