Chapter 144 dyed her blue
"I only mean it if you can see it." Ye Qingshuang held the jade flute and looked at Ling Yi: "I don't want to lie to you."
Ling glanced at her, said nothing more, and walked to the railing. A thick tentacle stretched out from the sea and attacked the ship.
Upon seeing the tentacles, Ling Yi drew his bone knife and flew to slash at them.
The bone knife collided with the tentacle, creating a gash in it. Ling Yi's hand, which was gripping the knife, went numb from the impact. If the bone knife hadn't been special, he probably wouldn't have been able to open the gash at all.
"It's a Saint-level beast!" Ye Qingshuang shouted, "Ling Yi, be careful!"
Damn it, deploying a Saint-level beast here? Are you trying to get yourself killed?
Why didn't the lightning in the sky strike those beasts dead?
Ye Qingshuang played her jade flute, and as the flute music played, seawater formed chains that wrapped around the beast's tentacles, instantly severing the thick tentacles!
Blue blood spurted out, but the flute music did not stop. More and more water chains formed with the flute music, probing underwater and wrapping around the beast's huge body. As the flute music became more urgent, the chains binding the beast's body tightened continuously, and wounds crisscrossed. Countless drops of blue blood floated in the seawater around Cui Linglong.
Ling Yi turned to look at Ye Qingshuang, only to see that Ye Qingshuang's face was pale and blood was trickling from the corner of her mouth, but even so she did not stop.
Just then, a huge object crashed into the Emerald Dragon, causing the boat to shake violently. Ye Qingshuang was pushed back to the railing by the shaking, with half of her body over the railing.
Just as Ye Qingshuang was about to fall, the bell on the Emerald Dragon flashed a light, and a defensive barrier was activated, enveloping the entire ship. In this way, even if Ye Qingshuang fell, she would be inside the barrier.
Ling Yi stepped forward and pulled the person back. Just as they stood up, the boat swayed again.
"puff"
Ye Qingshuang spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing that she was injured, Ling Yi was about to tell her to stop when Ye Qing Shuang ran to the railing and pointed at the giant beast below, cursing loudly: "You little beast that only beasts can raise! Do you think I'm a pushover if I don't show my power?"
"I'm going to beat you to a pulp today!"
Ling Yi: "?"
After Ye Qingshuang finished cursing, she started playing her flute again. As her flute music rang out, huge waves surged in the sea. Soon, a giant beast emerged from the sea. The beast's body was covered with crisscrossing wounds, from which blue blood continuously oozed. After emerging from the sea, all of the beast's tentacles attacked Cui Linglong, but were blocked by Cui Linglong's barrier.
Seeing that the giant beast couldn't get in, Ye Qingshuang played her flute even faster, because she couldn't free her hands; otherwise, she would definitely have pointed a finger in provocation.
The defensive barrier was not soundproof. When the giant beast heard the flute, it knew that Ye Qingshuang was the one who had hurt it, and it became even angrier. After discovering that its tentacles could not break through Cui Linglong's barrier, the giant beast used its tentacles to wrap around the barrier and began to shake it, just like shaking a ball.
Ye Qingshuang was forced to stop playing and fell towards the other side of the ship's railing. Ling Yi caught her and asked, "Can we get out of this barrier?"
"Yes..." The giant beast was still shaking, and Ye Qingshuang felt nauseous from the shaking. She endured the nausea and looked at the bell: "Cui'er, speak up."
Upon hearing this, the bell, which had been ringing, stopped, but it didn't utter a sound, as if it hadn't heard.
Having no other choice, Ye Qingshuang could only change her address: "Little Linglong, say something."
With a flash of light from the bell, the barrier that the giant beast could not break through cracked open. Upon discovering the crack, the tentacles instantly squeezed towards it, and at the same time, Ling Yi released Ye Qingshuang and flew towards the crack.
"puff"
The tentacle squeezed through the barrier, but before it could attack, Ling Yi swung his sword and cut it off. Blood sprayed all over Ling Yi's face. The tentacle, in pain, instantly withdrew, and Ling Yi chased after it.
After Ling Yi left, the rift that had been opened instantly closed, leaving Ye Qing Shuang alone to face the still writhing tentacles.
Ye Qingshuang looked at the tentacles, her eyes flashing with light, but she ultimately restrained her desires and went over to watch Ling Yi fight the giant beast.
Saint-level beasts require cultivators at the Profound Spirit Realm to deal with, and Ling Yi currently only has a seventh-level cultivation. Judging from cultivation alone, Ling Yi is no match for them, but she knows that Ling Yi can.
But that might cause her to go berserk, so she has to keep a close eye on her at all times.
Ling Yi emerged from the barrier and immediately engaged in combat with the giant beast. To Ye Qingshuang's surprise, Ling Yi did not go berserk. Not going berserk meant he couldn't kill the beast instantly, forcing him to painstakingly fight and dodge its attacks. Moreover, their battle was taking place at sea, which was disadvantageous for Ling Yi in terms of both cultivation level and the terrain. However…
Ling Yi used her teleportation ability to dodge attacks. The giant beast's attacks were not as fast as her teleportation, and the poisonous mist spewed by the giant beast could not harm Ling Yi in the slightest. As a result, the giant beast could not catch Ling Yi for a while and could only wear her down.
Whether human or beast, frequent use of power will soon become unsustainable. The Saint-level beast has developed intelligence, and upon realizing that Ling Yi intended to stall for time, it also slowed down its attack, intending to wear Ling Yi down.
Its power reserves are far greater than that of this human, and it does not believe that this human can outlast it!
The giant beast was willing to wear down Ling Yi, but Ling Yi's behavior really annoyed it. After all, in its eyes, Ling Yi's cultivation was as low as an ant, something it could crush with a flick of its tentacles. Yet it couldn't kill her for a long time, and even its proud poisonous fog couldn't do anything to her!
Its poisonous mist is highly toxic, so how could it not harm her?
The behemoth would never know that its poisonous mist was ineffective against Ling Yi because Ling Yi possessed a more potent poison, one that even the three-headed python, which was of a higher level than it, could not withstand.
In the war of attrition between the human and the beast, both Ye Qingshuang and the giant beast thought that Ling Yi would be the first to give out. But gradually, Ye Qingshuang realized that the situation was not as she had imagined!
Ling Yi still has plenty of strength; she hasn't been depleted at all!
Ye Qingshuang's eyes were filled with disbelief. How could this be?
When Ye Qingshuang saw Ling Yi use Instant Flash to dodge attacks and then inadvertently touch the giant beast with his hand, she instantly understood!
Devour!
Ling Yi can devour, but given her current situation, she can't devour the power of the giant beast all at once. However, she is gradually eroding it. It is precisely because of this devouring that she is able to keep going!
Unfortunately, this giant beast's cultivation level was far higher than Ling Yi's, so it didn't even realize it had lost a little bit of its cultivation. Given Ling Yi's current rate of devouring, by the time it sensed it, it would be too late.
This method can deal with the behemoth, but it has a drawback: it takes too much time.
They don't have that much time to waste.
Just as Ye Qingshuang was about to remind Ling Yi, she saw Ling Yi leap up and completely leave the giant beast's body. The next moment, a powerful force erupted, and Ling Yi wielded the bone knife and slashed down.
Sensing the danger, the giant beast hurriedly tried to block with its tentacles, but Ling Yi simply severed those tentacles. When the bone knife landed on the giant beast's body, blood sprayed all over Ling Yi, turning her blue.
