Chapter 874

"Whoosh!"

The white air current dissipated; gravel rolled along the way, and mud and sand rose like a curtain.

The torrent surged and whistled, as if an iron blade had scraped off a layer of ground!

Human and fish.

Who exactly swims faster?

Ci Ji had such confusion for the first time. Clearly in the water, how could it fail to catch up to a weak human Jiang Zongshi?

Even more bizarre, despite being a Jiang Zongshi, the opponent seemed to possess more than one divine ability...

*Whoosh-la-la. *

The torrent snapped the water weeds.

Liang Qu licked open his mouthguard, swallowed a recovery elixir worth a thousand silver taels, and a verdant halo appeared on his back at some point, continuously replenishing his stamina and vitality. Within his dantian, azure brilliance flickered; every time it pulsed, a little bit of blue cloud was restored.

He had long accumulated enough Qi to use 【Water Travel for a Thousand Miles】 again, but he had been using 【Water Travel】 to drag Ci Ji along, fearing that if he ran too fast, the opponent would give up the chase.

His perception spread backward.

Empty.

But he knew there was another situation behind him.

Among the gravel of the Pufferfish tribe's territory, Bai Awei curled into a stone, motionless, secretly sucking blood, quietly stealing the information drifting in with the water current.

He was being followed by two Great Demons!

If Long Long Binglin and Long Long Eying failed to achieve a quick victory and let the Yellow River Carp catch up, they would definitely fall into an unfavorable situation.

Even with a quick victory, with Great Demons in pursuit, they wouldn't be able to take away too much loot this time, letting others take advantage for nothing.

But it was just right.

The Yellow River Carp moved.

Another Great Demon was left alone!

"Quick, quick, quick!"

"Be nimble!"

"Pack it all up for me. If any piece is missing, I'll hold you Pufferfish accountable!"

In the Pufferfish territory, the Dog-Head Fish Great Demon barked orders, directing the Pufferfish to clean up the flesh and blood exploded from the leader Ci Jing.

In the large net woven from water weeds, piece after piece of Great Demon flesh was piled into a small hill.

While no fish was paying attention.

The Dog-Head Fish extended its long fin and flashed, secretly touching a large piece of Ci Jing meat that should have belonged to the Yellow River Carp and stuffed it into its mouth. Before it could chew twice, it caught a glimpse of a fish looking at it in its peripheral vision.

A Pufferfish spirit creature was staring blankly.

*Tch. *

Caught stealing food.

It flicked its tail.

*Bang! *

"What are you doing?"

"How dare you kill my tribe's fish!"

Blood mist scattered, broken spikes flew; the Pufferfish were astonished and filled with endless rage, their emotions stirred.

The Dog-Head Fish said coldly: "It was stealing food!"

"Bullshit, how could Pufferfish commit cannibalism!"

"Who stole..."

"Get to work!"

Ci Xia interrupted the Pufferfish.

"Ci Xia Great Fish..."

"Get to work!"

The Pufferfish in the tribe were all humiliated; after stifling their anger for a while, they lowered their heads bitterly.

"Slow!"

The fish looked up.

The Dog-Head Fish pointed to the spirit creature flesh shattered into dregs in the water weed net.

"Clean it up! Don't mix it in and give it to the Yellow River Great Fish; it will dirty its mouth."

Ci Xia felt infinite grief and indignation in its heart.

The best outcome today was for Ci Jing to survive, for the Pufferfish to consolidate their forces, rely on the protection of the Iron-Head Fish King, and linger on in a desperate situation.

If it was the worst outcome...

Endure!

Ci Xia stepped forward personally to clear out the flesh of its tribe's fish.

Seeing its once-equal opponent bow its head and submit, obediently cleaning up the leader's flesh for tribute, the Dog-Head Fish was triumphant and secretly delighted.

The Pufferfish and Dog-Head Fish had been arguing for so long that their strengths were naturally equal; both had two Great Demons, and their cultivation realms were similar, making them evenly matched.

Ci Jing was originally the one demon with the most hope of breaking through a realm to become what humans call a Jiang Zongshi, influencing the balance of power. However, who would have thought it would suddenly die today.

From today on.

The Dog-Head Fish tribe would swallow everything of the Pufferfish tribe!

Completely digested, perhaps they could nurture another Great Demon, flourishing!

Thinking of this, the Dog-Head Fish wished it could leap out of the water and swim through the Great Lake. The only pity was that the matter didn't happen two days earlier, so it wouldn't have had to invite the Yellow River Carp to divide the legal rights of the treasure land, saving the extra cost and earning a portion of Great Demon flesh for free.

The intense joy diluted the warning signs of crisis, until a certain moment, when it erupted with a *boom*.

"What's going on?"

The Dog-Head Fish's heart tightened, and it looked around vigilantly.

While the situation was unclear.

A trace of cold current permeated.

*Rumble! *

A towering iceberg rose from the ground, the cold air like a tide!

"This..."

The Dog-Head Fish's pupils dilated, it flicked its tail to shatter the spreading azure ice blocks, and moved upward.

But just as it avoided it, another shadow suddenly descended, reflecting on its skull.

The person had two horns on its head, azure pupils, hands clasped together, flicking a dragon tail, with blue veins writhing all over its body, just like a bent bow shooting a great eagle, smashing down with all its might!

*Boom! *

The white current dissipated.

The Dog-Head Fish's eyes bulged, bloodshot, its bones creaked, and it fell, tumbling right into the rising iceberg!

The sharp mountain peak pierced into the Dog-Head Fish's abdomen, and the blood froze into blood crystals.

*Bang! *

Countless ice caltrops burst and spread, piercing layer by layer.

"Ah!"

The Dog-Head Fish let out a miserable scream; the bone-chilling cold almost froze its sense of pain, and the high spirits that drove the Pufferfish disappeared without a trace. It twisted its body with all its might, snapped the ice pillars, and swam outward.

Escape!

Must escape!

The bloody fish intestines froze onto the iceberg, snapping off as it pulled.

Long Long Binglin fought hard to intercept.

Above the iceberg, a ten-zhang ice cone broke off and fell, piercing the silt, and the splashed smoke and sand shrouded the entire Pufferfish territory.

The Pufferfish were all stunned.

What's the situation?

The arrogant Dog-Head Fish turned into a stray dog in the blink of an eye!

"Ci Xia Great Fish... this... what about us..."

Ci Xia's thoughts turned rapidly.

It thought of something, then looked to the north, and an irrepressible ecstasy surged in its heart.

There was actually a third situation!

If the Pufferfish and Dog-Head Fish each lost one Great Demon...

"Don't bother! Don't talk about it!"

The other Pufferfish thought for a moment and immediately understood.

Beyond their loneliness, a sense of comfort and relief suddenly arose; it was the fortune in misfortune, as things hadn't reached the worst possible point.

Looking again at the leader's flesh around them.

"The remaining leader..."

"How much have you collected?"

"Seven or eight out of ten of the large pieces, about fifty percent overall."

"Look for more."

Before the words fell.

*Click-clack. *

The sound of sharp crab legs colliding with rocks like gold and iron rang out.

A dark red crab demon smashed through the thorn fence, knocking down a large area, appearing before the fish. Behind it, more than a hundred Finless Porpoises were lined up, spreading out like wings, forming a whole, with extraordinary momentum.

The Pufferfish spikes exploded again.

Both sides stared at each other.

The crab demon stepped forward.

The surrounding shattered rocks were attracted and attached to the crab shell bit by bit. By the time it reached Ci Xia, it had transformed into a super-giant "Rock Crab King" of several dozen zhang, looking down from above, overlooking all living things!

What a strange spirit monster; clearly not yet at the peak of spirit monsters, but its momentum was not inferior at all!

The Pufferfish felt fatigue in their hearts, their spikes drooping. First their King died, then the Dog-Head Fish showed off its power; the blow to their morale today was denser than the sea tide, and they all looked toward Ci Xia in the middle.

Ci Xia hesitated.

The Finless Porpoise group.

It goes without saying who the visitor was.

The Da Shun Finless Porpoises were not just famous, but an iconic species.

Can they fight?

A Finless Porpoise group, a powerful crab demon.

There were five Pufferfish demons in the field; it wasn't that there was no way, they could fight it out.

But...

Is it worth it?

Ci Xia gritted its teeth; despite all its unwillingness, it lowered its spikes, retreated, and cleared the way.

The other Pufferfish remained silent and followed Ci Xia off the road.

The crab legs landed, and the earth trembled.

Brother Quan Tou looked at the Pufferfish that had given up the path, did not hesitate, shuttled through the school of fish, scooped up the water weed net bag with its two giant pincers, gathered all the Great Demon flesh scattered on the ground into it, threw it onto its back, and left swaggeringly under the gaze of the Pufferfish.

Yuan Tou looked back once, flicked its fins, and over a hundred Finless Porpoises each carried a piece of flesh and swam away whistling.

……

The Great Demon aura was not concealed, and the spirit creatures along the way all fled to avoid disaster.

"Puff!"

The crab retracted into its shell.

Tie Jun traversed the water area, leading three spirit monsters, heading toward the Pufferfish tribe at full speed. Halfway through, its long tail paused slightly.

"Dog Two's aura is also gone!?"
