Shui Qingrou was not worried and closed the distance, continuing her attacks on the giant octopus with the Heavenly Fragrance Sword Art.
She had realized that Yu Qingtan had a profound foundation and was a genius, definitely not there for a fruitless display; not to ntion, she was also a Body Cultivator in the later stages of Foundation Establishnt.
"Yiyi, protect yourself!"
Shui Qingrou shouted, her offensive growing even more intense.
After being entangled by the tentacles, Yu Qingtan imdiately felt spikes within them trying to penetrate her body.
However, her body, at the later stages of Body Refinent and Foundation Establishnt, was not sothing that could be easily breached by a tentacle of a Third Stage Sea Beast.
The giant octopus was not annoyed; when its tentacles brought Yu Qingtan closer, it sprayed a thick, stinky black paralyzing ink at her.
Although its ink was not highly toxic, it had strong paralytic and penetrative properties. Several Late Third Stage Sea Beasts had been dealt with by this tactic before, and it believed that this beautiful maiden definitely couldn't withstand it.
Yu Qingtan saw that the distance was close enough and suddenly burst forth with trendous strength, breaking free from the entangling tentacles while simultaneously creating a pale blue water sphere around herself, enveloping her and the main body of the giant octopus, including its head.
The paralyzing ink of the giant octopus was expelled by the water sphere, not affecting Yu Qingtan in the slightest. Then, in front of Yu Qingtan, a water blade that had turned dark in color condensed and shot towards the giant octopus's head.
Shui Qingrou, who was entangled with the tentacles, and Xiang Yiyi, who was nonchalantly watching, were once again shocked.
"A nascent water domain, half a step into the Dao! What kind of freak is this?"
One should know that even Real Person Shui Yun had only understood how to construct a nascent water domain after condensing her Golden Core.
With the enhancent of the nascent water domain, the water blade that Yu Qingtan had put all her efforts into condensing had also reached the attack power of a Third Stage.
The giant octopus condensed its water shield defense again, yet it only held for a mont before being penetrated by the water blade.
That mont barely allowed the giant octopus to avoid a vital spot, but a bloody hole was still punched in its head.
Having chosen to use its tentacles to get close to the giant octopus, Yu Qingtan did so for three reasons: first, her nascent water domain had a limited range; second, to prevent the tentacles from retracting in ti for defense; and third, to continue attacking with spells that required close combat.
As the first water blade struck true, Yu Qingtan's second water blade had already taken shape, while at the sa ti, she used the Water Escape Technique to close in further.
"Blood Control Technique! Decay and Flourish Technique!"
The blood in the giant octopus's body began to flow rapidly, blood spouting from the wound, even enlarging the hole.
The eerie fluctuations of the Decay and Flourish Technique then entered its body through the wound.
The giant octopus, now panicked, released the young ladies, retracting all its tentacles to its side to defend against Yu Qingtan's water blade and launch attacks at her.
Shui Qingrou moved the girls to the side for Xiang Yiyi to take care of and then went back to continue her own attacks.
The giant octopus was attacking Yu Qingtan with its tentacles while trying to escape the range of the nascent water domain. It wanted to flee.
Yu Qingtan, however, was not about to let it have its way and closely pursued it with her attacks.
"Human Race, I admit defeat, don't push
too far, or I will detonate my inner core."
After having more than a dozen tentacles chopped off and with its internal condition worsening, the giant octopus cowered, employing the old but effective threat of self-detonation.
Yu Qingtan paid no heed and continued her attack, rely sending a ssage to Shui Qingrou, instructing her to retreat temporarily.
Shui Qingrou did not insist on being brave and moved back to Xiang Yiyi's side.
Half an hour later.
"I'll fight you to the death!"
The eyes of the giant octopus were filled with madness as it used its remaining twenty-plus tentacles to block Yu Qingtan's retreat, then detonated its body and inner core together.
"Boom~"
A loud explosion sent water spraying into the sky, and a gigantic wave several ters high ford on the surface, spreading in all directions like a miniature tsunami.
A fierce shock wave rippled through the air, toppling buildings all around, and Shui Qingrou and Xiang Yiyi who were further away had no choice but to use their defensive spiritual artifacts to fend off the shock wave.
Monts later, the sky poured with a majestic rain, with the remnants of flesh and blood faintly visible within it.
Shui Qingrou and Xiang Yiyi, with worried expressions on their faces, saw through the rain a lovely young woman in a light pink dress, holding a pinkish oiled paper umbrella, floating on her sword mid-air.
Below her was a giant pit, over thirty feet deep, with sea water pouring into it.
This umbrella was none other than the Canglan Umbrella, a high-grade ancient treasure that Yu Qingtan had slightly altered in design and color.
The alterations were mainly because she didn't yet want others to know that she and Qing Shuang were the sa person.
With a Third Stage being detonating its inner core at such close range, even though the giant octopus had just entered Third Stage and despite Yu Qingtan having the Canglan Umbrella to protect her body, she was still so shaken that her internal organs displaced, causing her to vomit a large mouthful of fresh blood.
But such injuries, under the influence of her late-stage Foundation Establishnt body refinent, the Decay and Flourish Technique, and the Rejuvenation Spell, more or less healed within a few monts of standing.
"What a pity to lose a Third Stage inner core!" Yu Qingtan sighed in her heart, but the Contribution Points she would earn from slaying a Third Stage Sea Clan mber was far more than what she would get from a hundred late-stage Second Stage mbers, which was an important reason why Yu Qingtan was determined to kill it.
Xiang Yiyi, seeing the gracefully umbrella-holding Yu Qingtan, couldn't help but be infatuated, her heart racing. She knew, at that mont, she had fallen in love.
If Yu Qingtan knew, she would probably just regret that females couldn't provide Affection Value.
Shui Qingrou also felt a sense of unreality, a Third Stage Sea Clan mber had just fallen by the hands of Yu Qingtan.
A few breaths later, Yu Qingtan was essentially healed, and the water had settled. She put away the Canglan Umbrella and approached the two girls.
"Qing Tan, you're too incredible!" Xiang Yiyi had already run out of words to praise Yu Qingtan.
"Qing Tan, you're sure to take a place on the Hundred Flowers List this year." Shui Qingrou also complented.
"Hehe, may your words bring fortune. I need to help them first!"
Yu Qingtan looked at the girls lying on the rooftop and cast a Second Stage Rejuvenation Spell and a Second Stage Purification Spell on them.
These girls had all been paralyzed by the neurotoxin of the giant octopus, and since Xiang Yiyi only knew the First Stage Rejuvenation Spell, she was unable to awaken them.
However, being a Third Stage toxin, Yu Qingtan's Second Stage Purification Spell couldn't completely purify it, but it did remove the threat to their lives.
So the three decided to return to the Inner City first and rest for a while.
Although Yu Qingtan's spiritual power was still full, after a long ti of casting spells and fighting, her soul was indeed fatigued.
Fortunately, Shui Qingrou had a pagoda-shaped Spatial Treasure that could contain living beings, so they gathered up the girls and then hurried towards the Eastern City Gate.
On the way, whenever they encountered mbers of the Sea Clan, Yu Qingtan still used the Water Blade Technique to clear the field.
If there were Cultivators in distress, before stepping in to help, she would loudly announce her own na.
Shui Qingrou and the other girl had already gotten used to this.
Halfway there, the three won encountered sothing that made them quite angry.
On the roof of a large building, a few Sakura Island Foundation Establishnt Cultivators were collecting valuables from the rescued Cultivators.
These Foundation Establishnt Cultivators were the lackeys of the Golden Core Cultivator, Ye Qi Xiao Taro.
Seeing Yu Qingtan and her companions approaching on their swords, their expressions changed, clearly recognizing the female devil who had taken down An Xi San Lang.
"What are you doing here?" Yu Qingtan directly demanded.
One of the Foundation Establishnt Cultivators replied with a stiff face, "This friend from Tianxiang Valley, we helped the Cultivators here by eliminating the Sea Beasts that surrounded this place, and they voluntarily offered half of their belongings to express their gratitude!"
Yu Qingtan glanced around at the thousands of Qi Practitioners on the rooftop, many of whom appeared disgruntled. Your next chapter is on empire
She sneered and said, "It looks to
like you forced them to give up half of their belongings as compensation, right?"
