Chapter 778: Full Moon

The old toad crawled out of the cave, flicked its hind legs to shake off the soil between its claws, and pulled the fat catfish's long whiskers.

The legless frog flicked its tail and moved forward, cannot move followed closely.

Inside the cave.

The remaining tentacles made a final struggle. Three Luan-Dian-Feng-Dao Pills, combined with the Eight-Clawed King's wrinkled skin, were like dry firewood, a sense of withered decay arose spontaneously.

Without special physique, without special methods, such intense picking and supplementing, the Demon King would also fall into a state of near-death.

The Sea Shopkeeper, due to the change in gender, saw her body size shrinking and gradually expanding back, swallowing the Eight-Clawed King's flesh and blood in large mouthfuls. All the tentacles mixed together, struggling and waving, looking like a mad demon.

The momentum was terrifying, with a sense of not distinguishing between friend and foe.

Liang Qu didn't dare to get too close, nor did he want to move anymore, leaning into the corner of the cave and sitting down.

Pain.

Severe pain.

Hit by the Eight-Clawed King's tentacle once, killing intent rampaged in his flesh.

This wasn't simple destruction, but high-level mental oppression on low-level, causing flesh and blood decay, self-destruction and extinction, the same principle as Hunting Tiger staring a normal person to death.

If not for Liang Qu transforming into Bai Yuan, his body was tough, and he had buried Dragon-Tiger Golden Body, with high resistance, this light graze alone could have been life-threatening if it lasted long.

Not only the flesh, but frequent use of divine abilities also burdened his spirit.

His brain felt like a pool of solid-liquid mixed old pulp, hurting severely with a slight movement, and logical thinking was intermittent.

Exhausted.

Swish!

Frost covered, covering the entire cave.

The small octopus that split off and tried to flee was blocked by the ice wall and frozen in place.

The fat catfish flicked its long whiskers, smoothing the cave entrance. Long Eying landed beside Bai Yuan and gently stroked his head to comfort him.

"Liang Qing, can you move again?" The old toad landed in front of Bai Yuan.

Liang Qu was stunned: "Not over yet?!"

The old toad spread its double webs: "There's a small trouble, don't know what it is, the location is in the west we went to before, a bit annoying to this frog, well, not too annoying?"

West?

Liang Qu opened his big mouth, looking silly, long time no response.

After a while.

"Go, let's go!"

Got up from the ground.

Bai Yuan had Long Eying sitting on his left shoulder and the old toad on his right.

His physical strength was still quite abundant, only his brain was too tired to distinguish the path, making analysis, all relying on the old toad grabbing the fur on the back of his neck, adjusting the direction, he just rushed forward.

"Stop!"

The old toad fiercely grabbed the white fur, pulling Bai Yuan to a stop.

"Nearby."

"An octopus?"

Countless thin snake water flows swam.

Liang Qu's perception spread, easily finding the octopus lurking and motionless underground, not caring about thinking about the origin.

"Eying!"

No need for too much elaboration, one look communicated everything.

Just like before, trap first, then freeze... he tried his best to squeeze out the last bit of brain pulp.

"Once found, rest well, leave the rest to me."

Long Eying stroked Liang Qu's head.

"Too dangerous..."

"Time is up."

Time is up?

Liang Qu's thinking was stiff, turned a few times, and looked up at the sky.

The bright moon hung high, its silver light piercing through the water waves, spreading out a shimmering, faint glow.

That's right.

It was midnight.

"Leave it to Lady Liang..."

Splash!

Bai Yuan collapsed, caught by Long Eying.

The white flow dissipated, Liang Qu's figure appeared, leaning into her arms and sleeping soundly.

Gently laid flat.

"Trouble Frog Elder."

"Go, go."

Seeing Bai Yuan turn into a human with his own eyes, the old toad was surprised and uncertain, waving its frog webs, stepping forward to poke and prod.

How can a human turn into a demon?

Inside the cave, the octopus lying prone hid in the darkness, quietly waiting for time to pass.

Throwing a stone sees ripples, wind rises and lifts waves.

It was a lead-in.

Disturbing the heavenly secrets, guiding the disaster.

Right now there was no change, proving the disaster hadn't been affected, still falling on the main body.

If there was no news of the main body before dawn, it would flee alone, and live out the remaining twenty years...

Boom!

A huge ice pillar pierced through the rock layer, piercing the octopus that was restraining its breath and thinking. Countless ice crystals split and regenerated, like sharp blades stabbing into the body.

The octopus tried to split its flesh and blood to flee, but couldn't keep up with the splitting speed of the ice crystals.

Was the guidance successful?

Before being completely frozen, the octopus's eyeballs turned, only seeing a beautiful shadow under the moon, and the full moon behind the shadow.

Today's moon...

Really cold.

Crack, crack!

Ice slag shattered, frost covered the eyeballs, spiritual light dissipated.

"Mm."

His head was still dizzy, but much better than before sleeping. Liang Qu opened his eyes, was flashed by the dazzling sunlight at the cave entrance, subconsciously turned around, dodged the light, the familiar fragrance drilled into his nose, his palm stroked the long legs, cold and jade-like.

"Slept for how many days?"

"Five days, less than six." Long Eying gently patted Liang Qu's back.

"So tired."

"Elder was too nervous, didn't rest well and woke up in a fright, sleep a little more."

"Did it succeed? Tell me about it."

"The octopus discovered before the Elder fainted was mostly the manifestation of the tentacles on Hai Yun's body. The Eight-Clawed King didn't leave the tentacles on her, but brought them out as a decoy, and Frog Duke was also deceived.

I froze it, A-Fei helped pull it here, and the Shopkeeper is still refining the Eight-Clawed King in the cave. The next day she recovered her sanity and dispelled the killing intent left by the Eight-Clawed King for the Elder."

"Hehe."

Liang Qu couldn't help but chuckle.

Long Eying found it funny: "Why is the Elder laughing so... strangely?"

"A Demon King, actually brought down by us."

"After all, we prepared for more than half a year, the imperial court also extended a helping hand, and there was Frog Duke's help. The Eight-Clawed King was already very reluctant to count as a Demon King after the Yin-Yang reversal, and later the Elder suppressed..."

"It is a Demon King."

"Mm, it is a Demon King." Long Eying stroked his head. "It's a pity it can't be said, no one knows the Elder's feat."

Liang Qu wanted to squint for a while, but once the secret joy arose, he had no heart to sleep.

"Did the Sea Shopkeeper say when she would come out of seclusion?"

"She said try within two months, but if the Elder wakes up, you can go find her first."

"Go!"

Liang Qu jumped up, moved fiercely, his brain still ached a bit, fortunately it didn't hinder normal thinking.

Walked out of the cave.

Hundreds of finless porpoises surrounded, patrolling and guarding.

Fists waved giant pincers to say hello.

Sat on the fat catfish, arrived at the cave entrance where the Eight-Clawed King reincarnated, the old toad was overjoyed to see Liang Qu.

"Liang Qing! Quick, quick, quick, let's go ask that Demon to want benefits! The Eight-Clawed King's tentacles were all eaten by her!"

"Frog Duke, rest assured! Leave it to me, the Sea Merchant has a big family and a big business. Without the Demon King's tentacles, there must be other things to make up for it!"

The Sea Shopkeeper took over the sea merchants, must swallow the Eight-Clawed King to become a Martial Saint, otherwise she couldn't suppress the subordinates and guests, and the imperial court's debt couldn't be repaid at all. And the sea merchants didn't lack treasures. Without tentacles, exchanging with things of equal value was equally feasible.

Two people and one frog dived all the way and drilled into the cave.

In the large empty cave, the Eight-Clawed King's figure had long disappeared, replaced by the Sea Shopkeeper who was several times larger!

The wound on the Sea Shopkeeper's head hadn't fully healed. Inside the translucent body, some brown flesh and blood of the Eight-Clawed King could be vaguely seen, vitality not yet exhausted.

In addition...

Liang Qu's gaze turned to one side. In the corner was a huge frosted ice block. Through the frost, one could vaguely see the brown tentacles and a small octopus frozen inside.

"Little Water!"

The Sea Shopkeeper waved her tentacles to say hello. Perhaps because of suppressing the Eight-Clawed King's flesh and blood, she looked tired and weak. Noticing Liang Qu's gaze.

"The Eight-Clawed King's tentacles, left for Little Water."
