Bing Wuqing didn’t say anything, and just stared at him. In order to ensure that Leng Leng and the others could escape safely, he had to keep an eye on Xue Jianfeng for at least an hour. Otherwise, with their weak strength, Xue Jianfeng would catch up with them again in the blink of an eye.
Just as the two of them were confronting each other, their eyelids suddenly twitched. A powerful and fierce aura of a spirit beast was rapidly approaching from the distance, and in the blink of an eye, it had arrived in front of them!
It was a lizard, but not an ordinary lizard. From head to tail, it was more than ten meters long, and its entire body was covered with dense silver-gray scales. Its huge mouth was full of sharp teeth, and from time to time, it would spit out a lump of saliva with a pungent smell. When it landed on the ground, it actually corroded a deep pit, which was really frightening and made people’s scalps go numb.
“The ancient giant lizard!” Xue Jianfeng and Bing Wuqing blurted out almost at the same time. There was no doubt that this was one of the ten most ferocious and terrifying spirit beasts in the small Jianghu of the immemorial era. They had never thought that it would exist in this place.
The ancient monitor lizard didn’t stop, nor did it have any intention to waste time with the two of them. It roared and charged towards Bing Wuqing, who was the closest to it.
However, this was not surprising. The ancient giant lizard was famous for its strength, but it was also famous for being brainless. Other than having a strong sense of territory, this fellow’s mind was a complete mess. It did not have any clear consciousness, only the most basic animal instincts.
At its level, any other spiritual beast would have developed intelligence and their intelligence would not be much weaker than humans. Unfortunately, the primordial monitor lizard was recognized as one of the most retarded spiritual beasts. No matter how high its strength level was, it was still a wild beast that only knew how to kill.
Seeing this, Bing Wuqing furrowed her brows slightly and quickly retreated. Unexpectedly, although the ancient monitor lizard’s body looked very cumbersome, its movements were not clumsy at all. On the contrary, it was extremely Swift, and its speed was far above that of an ordinary human expert. Even Bing Wuqing was caught up in the blink of an eye.
Bing Wuqing was startled when she saw the other party’s stinky saliva biting toward her. She immediately unleashed her most skilled ice attack without any reservation, causing the ancient monitor lizard’s speed to drop. It was the same as the black Mantis that Leng Leng and the others had encountered earlier. It was the type of ice attack that was the most difficult to resist, and its effects were outstanding.
Bing Wuqing took the opportunity to escape. This ancient giant lizard was obviously an existence comparable to an expert in the exceptional gold core realm. If she was bitten by it, she would either die or be injured, especially that mouthful of saliva, which was extremely terrifying. Just a little bit of it corroded a big hole in her body. Even if her vitality was tenacious enough to survive, she would be plagued with diseases in the future, and it would be impossible for her to recover from it for the rest of her life.
However, before they could get more than ten meters away from each other, the blood-red tongue in the immemorial giant Lizard’s Mouth suddenly shot out like a sharp arrow, targeting Bing Wuqing.
This time, its speed was more than ten times faster than that of its movement technique. Bing Wuqing had no way to escape. Just as she was about to be hit, her hands quickly formed a seal, and a thick ice wall suddenly appeared behind her. Although the ancient monitor lizard’s Red tongue was extremely fierce and could easily break through the ice wall in an instant, the ice wall continued to thicken as it was broken through. In the end, it still managed to block the attack by a hair’s breadth.
“Phew! This lizard!” Bing Wuqing heaved a sigh of relief, not without lingering fear. On the other side, Xue Jianfeng couldn’t hide the look of regret on his face. If only Bing Wuqing had been killed by the ancient lizard just now. Not only would she have one less obstacle, but she would also have one less competitor. It was killing two birds with one stone. What a pity.
Even with her toes, Bing Wuqing could figure out this fellow’s intentions. As such, after enduring the first wave of the immemorial giant lizard’s attack, she did not plan to fight it head-on. After all, even if she could win, Xue Jianfeng would only benefit from it. Thus, she chose to retreat. In the current situation, preserving his strength was the best strategy.
“F * ck! You’re too cunning!” Xue Jianfeng was just about to gloat over her misfortune when he saw Bing Wuqing running in his direction, while the immemorial giant lizard was chasing after her relentlessly. In the blink of an eye, the man and the lizard were right in front of him.
Xue Jianfeng’s reaction was a beat slower, and he was instantly left behind by Bing Wuqing. The immemorial giant lizard, which was right in front of him, bit him again. Xue Jianfeng hurriedly raised his sword to block it, only to find that not only was the beast’s skin thick, but its silver-gray scales were also too hard. Not only was his sword unable to break through it, but it even numbed his right hand, and he almost dropped his sword.
At the same time, the ancient monitor lizard, which had missed its target, used the same trick again. Its blood-red tongue came out again. Although it was soft and harmless, it was covered in the most terrifying saliva. As long as it touched you, you would be dead.
Xue Jianfeng’s body was a little stiff from the recoil. If he had not seen this move before, he would have been caught off guard and suffered a great loss. Fortunately, he was prepared. As soon as the primordial giant lizard’s Red tongue came out, he immediately descended from the sky and used the ninth heaven sword, cutting off the tongue.
A broken tongue that was a few feet long jumped around on the ground. The immemorial giant lizard, which had suffered a great loss, immediately let out an extremely ear-piercing roar. The veins all over its body were throbbing violently, and its already ferocious beast eyes were instantly filled with blood. It had already begun to go crazy.
Xue Jianfeng’s heart skipped a beat as he felt the brutal aura from the immemorial giant lizard. He had poked a hornet’s nest!
It clearly had the intelligence of a wild beast, but it was one of the ten most terrifying spiritual beasts in the ancient martial world. There was no doubt about the strength of the ancient monitor lizard. It was almost invincible among its peers. If its original combat power was one, then after going berserk, its combat power was at least five, or even more!
In the face of such an existence, with Xue Jianfeng’s current strength, it was not certain whether he could win. Even if he could win, he would definitely lose his life. Furthermore, Bing Wuqing was watching him like a tiger watching its prey. He had been eyeing Bing Wuqing just now, and it was hard to say whether Bing Wuqing didn’t have the same plan at this time.
As soon as the primordial giant lizard went berserk, Xue Jianfeng turned around and ran without hesitation. He no longer cared about hiding. It was a hot day, but every step he took left a clear snow Seal under his feet that melted quickly. With every melted snow Seal, his body movement speed increased by a notch. After stepping through ten snow seals, his body movement speed was at least twice as fast as before!
“Traceless in the snow!” Bing Wuqing’s heart skipped a beat upon seeing this!
