A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 267: Conspiracy with the Monster

This was no ordinary attack. Each tentacle was wrapped in demonic energy, like a spear breaking through the air.

"puff!"

Although he reacted early, he still failed to avoid the attack of one of the tentacles and was hit hard on the chest.

It was as if a small hill had hit him. Lu Luan instantly spat out a mouthful of blood, and then his body quickly retreated against the sea water, stirring up large waves on the seabed.

This time the retreat was not under his control, but was caused by the force of the tentacle hitting his chest.

As he looked back, he also saw that in the broken formation, a tiger-headed banded fish with red eyes appeared!

Moreover, the aura on its body was extremely powerful. It was a tiger grouper in its peak state. From the memory of the demon cultivator, he recognized that this was the male fish!

"How?"

A look of disbelief flashed through Lu Luan’s mind.

He knew that after mating, the male tiger stripe will leave on his own, and the female tiger stripe will then raise the offspring alone.

How come there is a male and a female in front of me now?

After he realized what was happening, he immediately activated the talisman and swam upwards.

Although this tiger-headed banded beast's strength is in the late foundation building stage, the attack just now broke the formation first and then hit him, so the power was weakened a lot. Otherwise, if he had been hit with its full strength, he would have been seriously injured by now. How could he have escaped so quickly?

"Roar!"

When the male tiger grouper saw that there was nothing where the fish eggs were originally, he let out an angry roar, his eyes burning with flames of anger, and immediately chased after Lu Luan at an extremely fast speed.

It was just out hunting sea beasts for the weak female fish, but such a big change happened. Fortunately, it arrived in time after receiving the call, otherwise the baby thief would have escaped.

"Pu!"

Lu Luan rushed out of the sea and immediately flew away.

"Why are there two tiger-headed banded tigers here?"

He couldn't help but feel scared. He had just narrowly escaped death. If he had known that both the male and female were here, he would not have thought of stealing the fish eggs.

Now that he was in the air, he felt relieved, but the tiger-headed banded tiger was not very good at flying.

The climate on Tianjue Island is changeable. At this moment, there is a thunderstorm and dark clouds outside.

"Snapped!"

Just as it flew out of the sea, another huge monster also broke out of the water, gently flapped its wide fins, circulated its demonic energy and flew quickly, chasing after Lu Luan.

Moreover, the demonic energy boiling around his body completely obscured his figure.

“How could the speed be so fast?”

Lu Luan covered his chest which was in severe pain and looked back with an ugly expression on his face.

Although the tiger-headed banded cat is not good at flying, the gap in strength between the two is too big. Even if he has the help of talismans, he cannot get rid of it.

"If you keep going like this, you'll be caught up sooner or later."

He kept thinking of countermeasures in his mind.

"Human, you are seeking death. I will tear you apart alive."

At this moment, a muddy and angry voice came from his mind.

After hearing this, Lu Luan was shocked and looked at the huge creature not far behind him. He didn't expect that this tiger-headed grouper had already gained intelligence, and it seemed that it had lived for quite some time.

No wonder it stayed with the female fish. Its willpower allowed it to overcome its instincts. Instead of leaving, it rationally raised the baby together, so that its bloodline would have a greater chance of survival.

"Die!"

After a roar, it opened its huge mouth and the surrounding rain began to gather into its mouth.

The demon energy was activated, and the rain turned into ice cones inside.

This is a magical power performed using demonic energy. The tiger-headed banded tiger's means of attack is the tentacles on its neck, and this one has actually learned to use demonic energy to practice magical powers.

Then he exhaled in one breath, and these ice cones shot towards Lu Luan like sharp arrows. There were so many of them that they covered the sky and left him nowhere to hide.

In a flash, these attacks were behind him.

Lu Luan was trying to escape and could not dodge completely. Soon, several ice cones pierced his body and his clothes were torn.

"Cough...cough..."

He covered his chest and coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood. The tiger-headed banded fish was not very proficient in this magical power. Although it was hit by the attack, it did not cause him any serious injuries.

However, due to the interference, the distance between the two was suddenly shortened a lot.

The situation is precarious.

"If you continue like this, you will die here."

Lu Luan's breathing began to quicken.

"What's over there?"

Some wandering cultivators who were hunting monsters in the sea saw a fast-flying figure in the air in the distance and were immediately shocked.

"What a powerful aura! What kind of monster is that? Its strength is probably equivalent to the late stage of foundation building."

"Let's go quickly. There may be such powerful monsters in this sea area."

These wandering cultivators were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they immediately flew away. They were immortal cultivators and were hunted by powerful sea monsters. Once targeted, they would surely die. They hid their auras tightly when they ventured here for fear of being discovered by the powerful monsters.

"You can't escape."

The tiger banded fish sucked in another stream of rain water, condensing ice in its mouth. However, this time the ice was thicker and sharper, as if it wanted to kill him with one blow.

After it was brewing, his eyes were filled with hatred, ready to spit it out.

How could he not hate someone for having his child snatched away? If it were Lu Luan, he would definitely chop the other person into pieces.

Since the distance between the two was less than a hundred feet, Lu Luan felt the power with his soul.

"This attack..."

His expression changed with shock.

He knew that at such a close distance, he would definitely not be able to dodge the attack if it was launched.

And once hit, the injury will be aggravated, and the fish will fall to the bottom of the sea and be killed by the fish.

"Go to hell!"

The tiger-headed banded tiger growled and was about to spit out an attack, but when it was halfway through, it quickly bit the attack into pieces.

"call……"

When Lu Luan saw that the attack had disappeared, he looked at the fish eggs in his hand and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Despicable humans!"

The tiger grouper behind him was so angry after seeing this scene that he gnashed his teeth and couldn't hide his eyes that he wanted to kill someone, but the fish eggs were in the opponent's hands, so he could only stare in anger and dared not attack again.

"Human, I think we could talk."

It spoke out.

"How? What do you want to talk about?"

Lu Luan glanced back.

"As long as you put my child down, everything will be fine. There are many powerful monsters and independent cultivators in this sea. If we continue to tangle like this, it will definitely lead to other troubles."

Hearing this, Lu Luan slowly stopped, stood in the air against the rain, holding the fish eggs, and watched it quietly.

"Let's go to the island below and talk, okay?"

The tiger-headed banded fish said, after all, a big fish floating high in the sky is really too conspicuous.

Lu Luan nodded and flew towards the island below.

With the fish eggs in his hand, he was not afraid of any tricks this guy might play. What's more, he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.

"Go ahead."

Lu Luan landed on a rock and looked at it indifferently.

At the same time, place the black sword across the edge of the fish eggs to prevent the opponent from playing any tricks.

"Boom...boom..."

There was a loud thunder in the sky, the sound was deafening, and there was a violent storm all around.

The tiger-headed spotted tiger suppressed the anger in his eyes, but he could do nothing about it. He stared at him for a while and said coldly, "As long as you return the child to me, I can let you leave smoothly. I will keep my word."

"Haha, do you think I'm stupid?" Lu Luan smiled coldly.

"Then what do you want in exchange for letting my child go?" the tiger-headed spotted tiger asked in a low growling voice.

After hearing this, Lu Luan said nothing and began to think in his heart.

"Woo..."

After a while, the female tiger grouper came chasing from the sea.

When he saw the fish eggs in Lu Luan's hand in front of him, anxiety appeared in his eyes. He immediately roared and wanted to rush over, and was ready to attack Lu Luan.

The male fish next to him was immediately shocked when he saw it. This woman is really a tiger. Didn't she see the sword on her child's neck? She rushed forward, so he quickly blocked it in front of her.

The female fish was obviously not as intelligent as it was. After being stopped, it screamed at it fiercely, but did not give up and prepared to change direction and go around it.

However, after being comforted by the male fish, it slowly calmed down.

Next, the two fish stared at him with four eyes, watching how he spoke.

"They are all powerful monsters comparable to those in the late stage of foundation building. Maybe..." Lu Luan looked at the fish eggs in his hand, then at the male fish. A bold idea came to his mind, and he said, "I took the risk to take your child because I want to break through the realm. As long as you can find a way to help me break through, I can return it to you. How about it?"

Now she is being harassed by the male fish. If she doesn't have intercourse, she will definitely be killed. Even if she has intercourse, they will not let her go. Now she has a glimmer of hope only after breaking through to the middle stage of foundation building.

This is a monster with strength equivalent to that of a late foundation building monster. How can we not make good use of it?

"can."

The male fish readily agreed immediately. With its current strength, it was capable of helping a person in the early stage of foundation building to break through as long as it put in some effort.

Lu Luan was a little surprised, but seemed to have thought of something, and said to it: "I have ordinary spiritual roots, it may be difficult for me to break through."

"What? You have ordinary spiritual roots?"

The male fish was a little dumbfounded after hearing this. Since Lu Luan was able to reach the foundation-building level, it naturally believed that he was a yellow spiritual root, and that was why it agreed so easily.

But I didn't expect that he was actually an ordinary spiritual root.

Although it has the strength of the late foundation building stage, it is extremely difficult for an ordinary spiritual root to break through to the middle foundation building stage.

"Friend, with ordinary spiritual roots, do you think it is possible for you to break through to the middle stage of foundation building?" Anger appeared in the male fish's eyes.

Lu Luan controlled the black sword to circle around the fish eggs and pass by them. He waved his hand and said, "I don't care about this. You can figure it out yourself. Otherwise, I will absorb your child to break through."

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that letting these two monsters with the strength of the late foundation building stage find a way to help him break through would be much more likely than using fish eggs.

Just as Xiong Yu said, for ordinary spiritual roots, breaking through to the initial stage of foundation building is already the limit, and the possibility of breaking through to the middle stage is too low. If he had not used the Blood Evil Technique to absorb so many corpses, two of which were even about to break through to the late stage, he would definitely not be able to make any progress in the initial stage, and he would probably not have his current cultivation level for the rest of his life.

Seeing this scene, the two fish suddenly became angry again, but they did not dare to act rashly.

"Did you reach this level of cultivation by taking elixirs?" the male fish asked after thinking for a while.

It had agreed, and since its weak spot was in Lu Luan's hands, it dared not disobey.

"That's not the case." Lu Luan said with a smile. Since the other party said so, it seems that there really is a way.

"That's good, that's good." The male fish breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

If it relies on swallowing a large number of pills to achieve this level of cultivation, then its spiritual roots are completely wasted, and there is no hope even if it tries its best.

"Woo..."

The female fish had no idea what they were communicating about, so she made ferocious noises at the male fish, as if she was angry that the male fish had the time to talk to its enemy and had forgotten about saving its children.

"Roar."

The male fish glared at it and roared back.

After being humiliated, the female fish glared at Lu Luan again, with the tentacles on its neck dancing, as if preparing to attack.

But soon, the male fish slapped it with its fin, and it immediately behaved itself.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Lu Luan frowned and looked into the distance.

The male fish also discovered something, and a bloody look appeared in its eyes.

Amidst the waves, two middle-aged men were hiding on an island and watching.

"Oh my god, they are two rare tiger-headed groupers. I didn't expect to see traces of this kind of monster in this sea."

"Is that fish roe in the man's hand?"

"It should be."

These two people were most likely independent cultivators who hunted monsters in the sea to earn spirit stones. After hearing the noise, they could not help but come over to check it out out of curiosity, wondering if they could pick up some bargains or be the better fisherman.

But sometimes, just joining in the fun can be risky.

Just when they thought they were hiding well, they had no idea that danger was approaching.

"puff……"

"puff……"

Two tentacles suddenly shot out from the sea, piercing the chest of the two people hiding on the island before they could react.

As he watched the blood spurt out of his chest, his eyes were filled with daze and horror.

How could they have imagined that they would die in such an unclear manner?

Then the tentacles retracted, and a bloody mouth chewed the two men into pieces. Their souls wanted to escape, but they were beaten to pieces by two evil spirits flying from afar.

……

On the island, the female fish swam out of the sea, spitting out two storage rings and some broken weapons from its mouth.

Lu Luan waved his hand and took them back.

These were two very ordinary casual cultivators in the early stage of foundation building, who seemed to have just broken through. Their combined value was only a dozen or so intermediate spirit stones. However, a mosquito, no matter how small, was still meat, so he accepted it without hesitation.

"Friend, let's go to Tianjue Island to discuss it carefully. There are very few independent cultivators there."

Xiong Yudao directly called Lu Luan a friend. Although his words sounded friendly, he could not hide the resentment in his eyes.

"can."

Lu Luan nodded, ignoring the murderous gaze.

Then the three of them dived into the seabed and returned to Tianjue Island.

On the way, as if to prevent him from cheating and escaping, the male and female fish separated him in the middle.

"Although the male fish's intelligence is not as good as that of a normal human, it certainly has other ideas. However, as long as the eggs are in my hands, it probably won't dare to play any tricks."

Lu Luan thought to himself that the fish eggs on his body were the command arrows.

He didn't want to run away now, and even if he wanted to, he couldn't escape.

Although they had already made a preliminary compromise, he did not let down his guard and was always paying attention to their every move to prevent themselves from being killed instantly.

"Human, can you take my child out and soak him in sea water?"

The male fish turned around and said to him.

"Don't worry, it's fine," Lu Luan said calmly.

Now we are in the sea, who knows if these two fish have any other means.

Nothing more to say.

"My injury?"

After a while, Lu Luan was surprised to find that the injuries he had suffered before were actually starting to get better, and his originally chaotic breathing slowly stabilized.

"It seems to be due to the physical body. I didn't expect the effect to be so good. Now I should be able to fully recover after more than a month of rest. This self-healing ability really saves me elixirs."

Although I knew that the physical body was effective, I was very surprised after experiencing it myself, and secretly exclaimed that it was really worth practicing.

"correct."

Lu Luan suddenly thought of something and said, "Let's go to the place where you laid your eggs before."

Although the male fish was confused, he still followed his advice.

After a while, they arrived at the location where they had laid eggs before.

"receive."

Lu Luan stood on the seabed, opened his hands, and sucked all the fragments of the formation disk into him.

"Oh, what a pity."

He shook his head and sighed. The formation plate was broken too completely to be repaired and could only be sold as scrap material.

He still felt a little sad that such a useful formation plate was gone.

"We found it. Let's go. This place is not safe."

The male fish said in a somewhat cold voice.

"Ah."

Lu Luan followed them and swam away.

"Right here?"

After swimming around the island for more than ten miles, the male fish looked at him.

But after Lu Luan looked around, he shook his head and said, "No, I have to choose the place."

After saying that, he continued swimming forward. He didn't trust these two fish.

Seeing him like this, the two fish had no choice but to follow him obediently.

"With their full support, we should be able to break through."

Lu Luan looked back and said silently in his heart.

He never expected that such an incident would happen. It was completely beyond his expectations.
