Shenwu Yutianlei

Chapter 181 It’s too quiet

The people moving forward below were unaware of the existence of this bet. They were now moving through the dense forest.

This forest is full of unknown dangers, so they must always be vigilant.

Qin Haoran can be said to be a well-deserved child of destiny. He was born into an imperial family and is the 28th prince of the current emperor. He is only in his twenties, but he has already reached the sixth level of Foundation Establishment. He is also the favorite disciple of Qin Xingliang, the second elder of the Royal Academy. He has been the apple of everyone's eye since he was a child.

Qin Haoran has shown extraordinary talent and ability since he was young. He is far superior to his peers in both practice and knowledge. He is smart and witty, and is loved by the emperor and the elders. In the Royal Academy, he is also a focus of attention. Many disciples admire him and take him as a role model.

At this time, Qin Haoran was surrounded by many people, and beside him were a group of family members from Liuyun City. There were dozens of people in this group, and the lowest level of cultivation was the first level of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Along the way, some monsters with lower cultivation levels noticed the momentum of this group of people from afar and began to pay more attention to them. These family members were full of awe and admiration for Qin Haoran. They surrounded Qin Haoran and carefully protected him, as if he was their leader and role model.

Looking down from a high place, the team led by Qin Haoran was like a sharp arrow, far ahead of all the disciple teams. In layman's terms, they had left the other teams far behind and were far ahead.

About three hours later, the team that Qin Haoran was in unexpectedly stopped moving. It turned out that they encountered an extremely strong opponent. A group of huge and ferocious bull-headed crocodiles blocked their way like an indestructible wall. In an instant, the originally relaxed atmosphere on the field seemed to be frozen and became extremely tense. The two sides were on the verge of a fight, and a strong smell of gunpowder filled the air. It seemed that a fierce battle could break out at any time.

On the other side, Shen Yun and other members of the team also encountered some troubles at the moment. They were stagnant in front of a river. The river was winding and spreading in this area. Since the terrain here was relatively flat and open, the water flow of the river did not seem to be turbulent, but rather it was surging forward in a relatively gentle manner.

The width of the river was only a few hundred feet, so for them, this distance was not an insurmountable obstacle. With their abilities and skills, they only needed to use the river surface to gain leverage and use their own lightness skills to easily jump over the river and continue on their way.

The main reason why Shen Yun asked everyone to stop here was that it was too quiet here, so quiet that not even the sound of a common bird or beast could be heard. You know, if this happened in the familiar Flowing Cloud City, it might be understandable, after all, Flowing Cloud City is relatively closed and has more human activities. However, this is not Flowing Cloud City, this is a swamp forest full of dangers. In such an environment, such an abnormal silence can only mean one thing, that is, there must be a high-level monster here, and judging from the degree of silence, the level of this monster is at least a second-level terrifying existence.

At this time, Shen Yun stood quietly by the river, his expression serious and focused, and he carefully looked around. He found that there were no obvious signs of other teams passing through here. From this point of view, it seems that the other teams should have chosen to take other different roads and did not pass through here.

Shen Yun's face was serious, and he briefly explained his inner speculation in detail to everyone.

At this moment, Zhao Mingxuan also spoke up: "My demon pet just sent me a message. It told me that there is danger ahead."

Zhao Mingxuan's words undoubtedly and indirectly confirmed Shen Yun's speculation that there must be a monster in the river.

Moreover, if everyone rashly jumped across the river, they would inevitably be easily attacked by the monsters hidden in it. After all, monsters usually have a very strong sense of territory, and they have a strong desire to protect and be aggressive towards their territories.

"Since we can't pass directly, we can only kill it and then move on." Shen Yun whispered: "Is there anyone among you who is good at long-range attacks? Send a few attacks into the river to lure the monster out."

"I'll do it." A crisp voice sounded, and the one who spoke was a petite woman. Her name was Wang Qingqing, and she came from a smaller family in Liucheng. After that, she raised her jade hand calmly and took out an exquisite and slender longbow from her storage ring.

Then, she held her breath and concentrated. She stood there like a still statue, with only her slightly fluttering hair showing a hint of movement. As she moved slightly, a mysterious force seemed to flow out of her body, and spiritual energy gradually emerged and condensed.

These spiritual powers were like being pulled by an invisible hand, constantly interweaving and entwining in the air, slowly forming several bows and arrows that flashed with brilliant light. These bows and arrows were exquisite and sharp, and each one exuded a powerful aura.

She stretched out her right hand and firmly grasped the handle of the longbow, with a firm posture like a warrior who had been on the battlefield for a long time. Then, she placed her left hand on the bowstring and began to exert force, pulling the bowstring to its full extent little by little.

"go."

Wang Qingqing opened her red lips slightly, and as she spoke a short and powerful word, several arrows formed by pure spiritual energy suddenly flew out of the bowstring at this moment, just like a wild horse that broke free from its reins, and flew towards the river in front at an extremely fast speed. The tails of the arrows dragged long tails of gorgeous light, and they made a sharp sound of breaking through the air with an indomitable momentum. Several arrows formed by spiritual energy scattered and fell into the river.

There was a loud bang like thunder. The arrows that had been shot into the river quietly suddenly exploded in the river. The explosion was so powerful that it was like a small storm suddenly erupting in the river. The powerful impact spread out in all directions with overwhelming force, causing the originally calm river water to splash up like it was enraged.

At that moment, countless water droplets flew up into the air like bullets, sparkling with crystal light under the sunlight. The river water seemed to be lifted up by an invisible giant hand, and then thrown into the sky, stirring up huge water splashes that were dozens of feet high. The water splashes surged and rushed, constantly climbing upwards, forming an extremely spectacular scene in the air. The scene was like an extremely gorgeous and huge water flower suddenly blooming in the river.

"Roar"

As the huge splash of water suddenly exploded, a roar full of anger and majesty came from the river, stirring in the air, making the people around couldn't help but feel their hearts tighten, and expressions of shock and vigilance appeared on their faces.

The river surface, which was originally calm, was instantly surging after the roar. The sparkling water surface began to roll violently, like a pot of boiling water. Huge waves hit and collided with each other, constantly raising layers of white waves. The surging scene was as if some extremely huge and terrifying giant was struggling to get out of this unfathomable river.
