Not long after, as the sound of footsteps approached, the Litu Sect group walked out of the jungle and came toward the mountain basin.

There were eight of them in total, all wearing black robes embroidered with blood-colored suns. While looking strange in color, the coldness coming from them was also particularly obvious.

Especially under the black robes that covered their heads, the cold gazes they occasionally revealed while moving forward had no emotional fluctuations, as if the lives here were meaningless existences in the eyes of the Litu Sect.

That sense of indifference toward death made these loose cultivators and alien races in the basin highly alert. Even the Sea Ghost organization, which was always known for its cruelty, was incomparably dreading them one by one.

Because cruelty was also a part of human nature, but these people of the Litu Sect were killing machines without any emotions.

As they walked, the coldness also spread, permeating the entire basin. Many loose cultivators changed their expressions and finally chose to leave.

Toward the loose cultivators who left, the Litu Sect didn't even glance at them. After they arrived, they sat down cross-legged and didn't move.

Xu Qing's gaze swept over these people of the Litu Sect, and he didn't see the little girl's brother from the scavenger camp back then, so he withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes to meditate.

As for the old man Ban Ban Quanlu, he didn't go back. He found a place aside to avoid the poison gas and sat cross-legged, while being vigilant against Xu Qing and other cultivators around, while also muttering in his heart.

"This kid agreed so quickly, I always feel something is wrong, he has no good intentions."

Just like that, in the solidified atmosphere of the mountain basin, ten days passed.

In these ten days, no sea lizards arrived.

This phenomenon made the cultivators here have a faint premonition, and the sea surface around gradually had fewer waves, becoming more and more calm.

It was as if a storm was coming, incomparably suppressed.

The sea surface was like this, and the basin was also the same. Everyone was in silence, only the big snake beside the old man often looked at Xu Qing and made gurgling sounds.

Xu Qing couldn't understand and didn't pay attention, but let himself stay in a peak state at all times.

The dagger was wiped by him, and the iron sign was sharpened by him to a sharper edge. As for the alliance, it was just a casual agreement. Xu Qing would not trust the old man, and he also knew that the old man would not trust him either.

And the suppression here changed at dusk on the eleventh day.

The ocean rumbled at this moment. After ten days of calm, the waves seemed to wake up from their sleep, lifting violent surges.

Bursts of terrifying auras rolled out from the ocean, spreading to all directions. When they permeated the entire island, Xu Qing saw several vortexes appearing on the distant sea surface, rapidly approaching the island.

Many cultivators noticed this scene, most of them remained silent, but their cultivation bases were circulating, making themselves able to take action like lightning at any time.

Soon, the first vortex approached the shore. As the seawater rumbled and splashed, a behemoth with a body of a full fifty zhang and a purple-black color suddenly drilled out of the sea surface and stepped onto the beach.

Under the sunset, its body seemed to be covered with a layer of treasure armor. This treasure armor emitted a dark light, and while looking incomparably tough, a pressure far exceeding Qi Condensation erupted from its body.

The strength of the momentum made the sand and soil fly around, spreading to all directions.

It was exactly a Foundation Establishment sea lizard!

Whether it was the treasure armor on its body, the sharp claws on its limbs, or the vertical pupils of its eyes, everything made the sea lizard exude endless killing intent.

And it clearly possessed wisdom. After going ashore, it shook its body, raised its head and swept its cold gaze across the island, finally looking at the mountain basin, revealing a touch of contempt in its eyes, and then walked with big strides, coming with a rumble.

The strength of the momentum made the cultivators in all the mountains on the island feel their hearts shake and their breathing become rapid after noticing it, and their expressions turned pale instantly, having a feeling of being suppressed.

And it was not just one Foundation Establishment sea lizard that arrived.

After the first sea lizard, as the vortexes approached one after another, the second Foundation Establishment sea lizard also went ashore and stepped into the jungle.

Then came the third one.

And the aura of this third one was even stronger, its body reaching a hundred zhang. As it walked onto the beach, it roared toward the sky, and suddenly a storm appeared in the surroundings, sweeping all directions while making the trees in the jungle shake violently.

Even the cultivators in the basin felt the fishy wind blowing in their faces even from such a distance.

That sense of suppression in cultivation base was even stronger at this moment.

Even Xu Qing's pupils contracted rapidly, feeling the terror of these three Foundation Establishment sea lizards.

In his feeling, the first two were already very strong, and as for the last one, he felt a faint stinging pain in his eyes just by looking at it.

This made Xu Qing take a breath, his mind rapidly comparing the Jin Gang Sect ancestor with them, and the answer after the comparison was that even the relatively weaker first two sea lizards could tear the Jin Gang Sect ancestor to pieces.

"Two middle-stage Foundation Establishment, the last one is actually late-stage Foundation Establishment! The first two together are worth over ten thousand spirit stones, and the last one... can be sold for fifteen or sixteen thousand spirit stones easily! Xu Qing, let's really form an alliance this time!" The old man Ban Ban Quanlu's eyes were shining, and he spoke rapidly.

Also shining were the cultivators around the basin. Whether it was the Sea Ghost or those alien races, they were all greedy at this moment. The temptation of tens of thousands of spirit stones was too great for the prices in the Endland world and for these cultivators.

Xu Qing also had a heavy expression, looking at the three Foundation Establishment sea lizards walking from the beach, feeling a strong danger. All the hair on his body stood up at this moment, and the skin on his body vibrated slightly.

This was caused by the aura suppression, and at the same time, it was also his body telling Xu Qing that it was ready to take action.

"If I can get a Foundation Establishment sea lizard skin on this trip, I can return fully loaded, and these are enough to support the promotion of my magic boat and my own cultivation, allowing me not to worry about spirit stones for a short time!"

Cold intent rose in Xu Qing's eyes.

The sea lizard skin he had obtained before added up to about two thousand spirit stones, plus the items on the people he killed, and the inquiries from Senior Sister Ding along the way, his current income had reached about four thousand spirit stones.

"Get a Foundation Establishment sea lizard skin, and then leave this place!"

The moment Xu Qing made up his mind, a loud rumbling sound came from under the mountain, and the three Foundation Establishment sea lizards had already approached the top of the mountain.

They didn't choose to fly, but crashed all the way, using the breaking of trees to facilitate their skin shedding.

At this moment, they rushed directly into the mountain top, ignoring everyone, walking with big strides, and stepped into the basin amidst the rumbling.

Because their bodies were too large, the three of them were in the basin together at this moment, immediately occupying more than half of the basin, and observing Foundation Establishment creatures at such a close distance made the breathing of all the cultivators here seem to stop.

Not to mention that soon they roared toward the sky, and the roars from the three Foundation Establishment sea lizards themselves possessed lethality.

At this moment, as they spread out, it was as if the world was rumbling, and the impact formed by the sound waves swept all directions directly.

Some cultivators whose physical bodies were not strong enough couldn't avoid it in time, their bodies shook violently, and they spat out large mouthfuls of blood and were injured directly.

The surrounding trees were even more vulnerable, all shattered in these sound waves.

Looking from afar, the sound formed by the roars of the three Foundation Establishment sea lizards continued to spread to the surroundings, making the nearby mountains the same, trees destroyed, and some people with low cultivation bases had no chance to escape, falling down one after another with screams.

Xu Qing's body also shook violently, but his physical body was sufficient. At this moment, he was not greatly affected in these sound waves, but the tree crown under him turned into ashes.

Xu Qing's figure landed. He didn't care about the destruction of the tree crown. His eyes were like a hawk, staring at the basin, waiting for the moment when the skin shedding was completed.

And the old man Ban Ban Quanlu was also fully focused. The surrounding Sea Ghosts and the alien cultivators who had endured the sound waves were all the same.

Just like that, in the waiting of all parties, an incense stick of time passed. Among the three Foundation Establishment sea lizards in the basin, two middle-stage Foundation Establishment sea lizards struggled to complete their skin shedding.

The moment the lizard skin fell, they turned their heads and took a bite each, swallowing a large piece of their own lizard skin amidst everyone's heartache, and then leaped suddenly, rising directly from the basin, and let out a low roar in the sky.

And although the lizard skins they shed were missing a large piece, they were also full of strangeness, actually shrinking on their own and turning into the size of a palm in the blink of an eye.

The moment this happened, all ten or so Sea Ghosts rushed out, and the other loose cultivators and alien races around also did the same. At this moment, no one cared about the Sea Ghost's former threat. In the face of huge interests, it was enough to make too many people red-eyed.

The old man Ban Ban Quanlu was also the same, rushing suddenly.

And Xu Qing's speed was even faster. In an instant, except for the Litu Sect who didn't move, all the cultivators here rushed over.

There were two Foundation Establishment sea lizard skins, and each of them had more than a dozen people fighting for it.

Xu Qing chose the one closest to him, and the old man Ban Ban Quanlu chose the same. Although the two didn't like each other, they still chose to join forces to a limited extent at this moment. Of course, precautions still existed.

The two approached in an instant, and their killing intent erupted toward the contenders.

Xu Qing circulated his cultivation base, waved his hand, and drops of water permeated around him, whistling toward the four directions. He even took out his dagger, waving it with cold intent, and fought directly with an alien cultivator of the Sea Ghost organization.

This Sea Ghost organization cultivator had a Great Perfection of Qi Condensation cultivation base and was very fierce, but Xu Qing was even stronger. He clenched his left hand into a fist and punched the other party directly in the chest, the Demon Shadow behind him roaring and suppressing along with it.

This alien cultivator roared and immediately counterattacked, even taking out a talisman treasure, but under Xu Qing's blow, he still spat out blood, the talisman treasure almost collapsed, and his body was knocked back seven or eight zhang away.

The old man Ban Ban Quanlu was equally fierce. Ropes suddenly appeared outside his body, and all the loose cultivators and alien races fighting with him were instantly strangled by the ropes, and some even spread rapidly toward Xu Qing.

Xu Qing knocked back several people in a row and was about to grab the lizard skin, but ropes appeared in an instant and wrapped around him. But Xu Qing had been prepared, snorted coldly, and his whole body's Qi and blood expanded outward suddenly.

Amidst the rumbling, all the ropes around him shattered. Seeing that his hand was about to grab the lizard skin, at this moment, four Sea Ghost organization cultivators rushed toward him with red eyes, forming magic techniques one after another, and killing intent erupted.

The old man Ban Ban Quanlu was also the same, being besieged and blocked by loose cultivators.

Two more Sea Ghost cultivators rushed directly toward the lizard skin, and it looked like they were about to succeed, but the void beside the lizard skin suddenly twisted, and a huge snake head materialized from mid-air, biting toward the lizard skin, actually holding it directly.

Its expression seemed to be excited. This big snake looked at Xu Qing and the old man, and with a sway, it was about to go and help Xu Qing... but the old man's eyes lit up, he laughed loudly, the light of the talisman treasure appeared outside his body, shaking back the crowd and rushing directly toward the big snake.

After hugging it, the old man was full of excitement.

"Good boy, well done."

Xu Qing's Demon Shadow appeared behind him. This shadow roared, the sea of fire scattered, making the few Sea Ghost cultivators beside him scream and spit blood and retreat. Xu Qing didn't pay attention to them, turned to look at the old man, cold light flashed in his eyes, and he was about to rush over.

But at this moment, in the basin, the hundred-zhang sea lizard that everyone had never approached to disturb roared toward the sky.

The lizard skin on its body shattered directly, and its newborn body drilled out suddenly. It seemed that it didn't have time to swallow its own lizard skin. As soon as it appeared, it rushed toward the sky.

Its Qi and blood continued to expand, as if it was about to surpass Foundation Establishment!

The aftermath of the roar spread like a hurricane, causing the hearts of the people here to shake, and many were even shocked to bleed from their seven orifices. Then, the shattered lizard skin of the late-stage Foundation Establishment lizard shrank suddenly, turned into three parts, and scattered.

The aura emitted from these three parts of lizard skin was incomparably shocking, surpassing the previous two too much, and even faintly, there was a flash of golden light on them.

As soon as this golden light appeared, the eight directions rumbled, and even the clouds surged on their own. A sense of holiness spread out, giving Xu Qing the feeling of the pressure test when he faced the blood of a divine creature when he first joined the Seven Blood Child!

"This... I misjudged it. This late-stage Foundation Establishment lizard actually has a trace of divinity in its body. The aura of this divinity contained in this lizard skin makes its value soar!

" The old man Ban Ban Quanlu's eyes were straight, and he exclaimed in surprise.

The Litu Sect group aside also opened their eyes at this moment, revealing cold light. This was what they were waiting for!

Surprised or not~~

Happy or not~~

Is the little newbie handsome or not~~
