The two of them arrived at the river bank and saw that the river was gurgling. The algae in the river was soft and gentle, flowing along with the water, just like a graceful dance.
Between the algae, there was a small golden fish seed swimming back and forth with extreme agility.
The blue water, the gentle algae, and the lively fish among the algae naturally formed a fascinating scenery.
"Such a cute little fish seed", Yu Ruyi's eyes lit up as she crouched down to catch the fish.
Lin Yue suddenly pulled her back and shouted: "Don't move recklessly!"
Yu Ruyi was at a loss: "I only caught a small fish, I'm not drinking the water in the river … You see how cute the little fish are. "
Lin Yue sneered, "Take a look at what is in the middle of the river."
After Yu Ruyi heard this, she looked into the distance.
In the middle of the emerald river, there were a few white objects mixed together to form a coral. The small fishes were swimming back and forth in the middle, obviously treating the place as their home.
"What is that?" "It's only a few corals …" Yu Ruyi swept a glance, curled her lips, and gave a disdainful look.
"Look carefully, corals don't have skulls …"
"Skeleton head!?" When Yu Ruyi heard this, he could finally see it a little more carefully. Her expression changed greatly as she exclaimed in shock, "There's really a skull head!"
There were a few skulls embedded in the middle of the coral like object. However, the entire thing had already been moved and those skulls were embedded in the coral, making it difficult to find them at first glance.
"Puff!"
A golden little fish swam to the side of the water, curiously looking at the two people on the shore, it suddenly waved its tail, and actually flew out from the water, and suddenly bit Yu Ruyi's hand like golden lightning!
"Ah!"
Yu Ruyi was shocked, she flung her arm fiercely and sent the little fish flying. However, when she raised her hand, a piece of flesh that was bitten by the golden-coloured fish was actually missing.
"Be careful!"
Lin Yue growled. He grabbed Yu Ruyi's back and pulled her far away from the water bank.
"Pfft!" Puff! "Puff!"
Just as they left the water's edge, the originally carefree and adorable little fish suddenly shot out from the water and pounced towards the place where Yu Ruyi was standing just now.
Dozens of small fishes were crazily devouring the rock by the river, and in the blink of an eye, a deep hole was formed in the rock!
Only after the golden fish had used up all its energy did it finally stop moving. Slowly, it died on the riverbank.
"This!" What kind of monster is this!? "When Yu Ruyi saw this scene, she was scared pale and broke out in a cold sweat.
Lin Yue's expression turned cold, and said solemnly: "This river is close to the earth's vein, and its spirit is very strong, where the fish seedlings grow here, it can be considered a type of spirit creature, their attack power is extremely strong, the bones in the middle of the river, is probably when someone was attacked by the fish seedlings and died, in short, this kind of thing is very terrifying."
"Rustle, rustle, rustle …"
From within the coral of the corpse, a series of intense rubbing sounds suddenly rang out, as if someone was whispering in his ear.
Yu Ruyi said with an uneasy expression, "Could it be that the skeleton is talking?"
Lin Yue was also confused, but he knew that it would be better to leave this place as soon as possible. Lin Yue looked at his surroundings and found that the place the Martial Soul was sensing was still at the upstream of the river, there was a green light flashing, he did not know what it was.
"Lin Yue! "It's a school of fish!"
Yu Ruyi suddenly exclaimed, pointing at the pile of skeletons as she said that.
Lin Yue looked over, and sure enough, from the gaps between the bones, countless little golden fish swam out, and with the speed of a breath, they rushed straight towards them!
"Quick, flee!"
With such a crazy shoal of fish, if they really went ashore, with Lin Yue's and Yu Ruyi's current cultivation, they would be completely devoured in the blink of an eye!
"Where are you going!?"
Yu Ruyi looked around in panic. The path they took was blocked by a huge boulder, so they would definitely not be able to return, and the two sides of the waterway were in darkness. She did not know where it led to, but who knew if she would meet an even more troublesome demon!
"Run upstream!"
At this time, Lin Yue could not care so much anymore. With a low shout, he rushed towards the place that emitted the green light.
Yu Ruyi looked at the waterway and saw that the number of fishes was increasing, the originally lush green water surface was quickly turning gold!
"Gu gu gu gu!"
Bubbles emerged from the water as ripples spread out in both directions. A three foot tall wave was chasing after them along the river!
This fish is too ferocious! Yu Ruyi clenched her teeth and followed Lin Yue.
The golden fish shoots swam extremely fast in the water, constantly approaching. A portion of the fish shoots suddenly jumped out of the water, shooting towards the two like a bolt of lightning.
These fish shoots flew into the air, forming a squirming golden path right behind Lin Yue and his companions.
In the blink of an eye, the golden path rapidly caved in, turning into a several feet deep ravine!
"Lin Yue... "I … I can't escape anymore …"
Yu Ruyi's cultivation was completely sealed by Qin Hong, she could not even lift a single Genuine Essence, it was even worse than Lin Yue's.
"Don't want to die!" "Don't stop!"
Lin Yue shouted coldly as he stared at the approaching green light. That was their only hope.
"Ah!"
Yu Ruyi suddenly screamed in shock and stumbled to the ground. She didn't notice and tripped over a rock at her feet.
"Crack crack crack."
The sounds of the golden fish seedlings chewing on rocks echoed. The school of fish was still quickly approaching and they were only less than a hundred meters away from Yu Ruyi. They would catch up very quickly!
Lin Yue's expression changed slightly. It did not matter if Yu Ruyi died, he had been poisoned by the Gut Cutting poison, and if Yu Ruyi died, it would be very difficult for him to survive.
Immediately, he stopped his steps, turned and pounced towards Yu Ruyi, pulling her up, and then fiercely pushed her forward.
"Quick, flee!"
Lin Yue pushed Yu Ruyi away, and with a flip of his hand, he pulled out the Ink Sword.
Yu Ruyi quickly escaped towards the distance. When she was close to the green light, she turned her head and saw that Lin Yue was already completely surrounded by the golden spawning fish.
Those little fish flocks rushed out of the water like a bolt of lightning, circling Lin Yue and attacking him non-stop.
Lin Yue retreated as he blocked, but it was a pity that there were very few Genuine Essence left, the Sword Qi on them was not dense, they were unable to seal the dense shoal of fishes, the backs, thighs, back etc. All of them were bitten by the golden fish, even though he had already reached the level of a Silver Body, his skin and flesh was instantly ripped apart, and blood continued to gush out!
Looking at the green light dozens of metres away, Lin Yue's eyes darkened, he clenched his teeth and moved forward with all his might, the pain spread throughout his body and in the blink of an eye, the injuries on his body became even more severe, his flesh and blood was being torn to pieces!
"Lin Yue, this green light is a well!" Yu Ruyi cried out in despair as she looked at the place in front of him that was emitting this dim light.
"Jump!" Lin Yue ordered.
"But what if below …"
"What could be worse than this! If you do not want to be eaten by these fellows, then jump! "Lin Yue said directly.
Yu Ruyi watched as the golden little fishes quickly approached him, then looked at the place where Lin Yue's body had been torn to shreds, before suddenly closing their eyes and charging into the green light, jumping into the ancient well.
Lin Yue endured the berserk attack, and at the end, moved to the edge of the well with great difficulty. With a roar, he slashed out with his sword heavily, killing more than half of the fish in the front, then leaped up and jumped into the green light.
