Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 71
"Out!"

On the edge of the water pool, with Zhou Chun's low cry, Zhou Jiahe's spiritual pet, the green scale crocodile, broke through the water first, and breathed with its mouth wide open.

Afterwards, Zhou Jiahui's spiritual pet, the Spinning Water Turtle, also floated on the surface of the water with splashes, and slowly climbed ashore.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiahe and Zhou Jiahui, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately went forward to communicate with the spiritual pets, asking them about the results of their underwater investigation.

After a while like this, when the communication between the two of them and the spiritual pet was over, Zhou Chun couldn't wait to look at the two of them and asked repeatedly: "How is it? Can the two aunts tell you the details?"

"The situation is a bit difficult to say."

"According to what the green-scaled crocodile said, after going deep into the cave, it did enter an underground river with a large flow of water, and it did find a lot of the strange fish you mentioned, nephew Zhengchun."

"Moreover, there are not only that kind of strange fish in the underground river, but also many ordinary fish and shrimps and other monsters. Among them are powerful monsters that even the green-scaled crocodile feels dangerous."

Zhou Jiahe looked at Zhou Chun, and first told the information obtained by his spiritual pet's investigation.

Then his eyes turned to Zhou Jiahui.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiahui also opened her mouth and said, "My Spinning Water Turtle's investigation is not much different from what Sister He said. The only difference is that it said that the water quality in the underground channel is very good, and it likes it very much."

After Zhou Chun heard what the two of them said, he couldn't help lowering his head and thinking.

After thinking like this for a while, he looked up at the two of them and said, "The green-scaled crocodile is not weak, and a monster that can make it feel dangerous, even if it is not a second-order monster, must be a special kind of powerful first-class monster." High-level monsters, so the risk inside is indeed not small."

"However, whether it's the green-scaled crocodile or the spinner turtle, they are just monsters after all. The information they detected is still too vague. My nephew's suggestion is that the three of us go down and have a look in person. What do the two aunts think?"

Go down and see for yourself?

Hearing Zhou Chun's words, the two of Zhou Jiahe couldn't help looking at each other, both hesitated.

Unlike Zhou Chun, the two of them practiced the spell "water avoidance" because they lived long enough.

But because they have lived for a long time and have seen a lot, they are more aware of how dangerous this kind of underwater where there are a lot of water monsters.

At this time, if they are asked to take risks in such a place, how can they not hesitate and worry in their hearts.

"Nephew Zhengchun, are you sure you really want to go down and have a look? If we encounter any danger down there, we will probably be overwhelmed. Then you..."

After Zhou Jiahe hesitated for a while, he still looked at Zhou Chun and whispered about his worries.

Zhou Chun immediately smiled and said, "Thirteenth Aunt, don't worry, although my nephew doesn't have the protection of underwater spiritual pets like you, but there are ways to protect yourself."

"Well, since you are fine, nephew Zhengchun, I have no objections, aunt."

Zhou Jiahe nodded and agreed.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiahui on the side didn't want the two of them to think that she was timid, so she immediately responded, "I have no objection either."

So after the three of them blessed the "water avoidance technique", they sat on the back of the spinner turtle and carried it down to the cave deep in the pool. The green scale crocodile was driven by Zhou Jiahe to clear the way ahead, Chase those strange fish away.

When the spinner turtle carried the three of them into the huge cave deep in the pool, a wonderful underwater world came into the sight of Zhou Chun and the three of them.

I saw that the waters deep in the cave were not completely dark, and there were many small fish and shrimps that could glow.

With the help of the faint light emitted by these small fish and shrimps, Zhou Chun and the others can barely see some of the scenes with their naked eyes.

However, to really perceive the situation still depends on the divine sense.

Under the detection of divine consciousness, all kinds of strange aquatic animals in this underground water world can be seen at a glance.

It was a strange fish like an ordinary lizard, with no scales, a mouth full of sharp teeth, and a blue shimmer at the end of its tail.

A kind of prawn with two very long claws, its eyes are as bright as sapphires, emitting blue light.

There is also a strange eel-like fish with a long and narrow dorsal fin on its back, which swims very quickly in the water.

But these aquatic animals just look strange, not monsters.

The aura emitted by the spinner turtles made them dare not approach, and all fled far away.

After walking along the cave with seven turns and eight turns for nearly half an hour, the water-spinning turtle carried Zhou Chun and the others into the underground river.

Compared with the relatively calm water flow in the cave, the water flow in this underground river is much more turbulent.

Huge creatures like spinner turtles have to paddle their bodies vigorously in order not to be swept away by the current.

"Shall we go up or down?"

Zhou Jiahe, who drove the green-scaled crocodile to clear the way, gestured to Zhou Chun and asked.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun pondered for a moment, then pointed upstream.

Then left a marker token at the place where the cave and the underground river meet, so as to avoid forgetting the route when returning.

After going up against the current for about two quarters of an hour, the green-scaled crocodile, who was clearing the way ahead, encountered a stabbing opponent.

In the underground river with a width of more than ten feet, a strange monster in bone armor that looked like a scavenger was fighting fiercely with the green-scaled crocodile.

The fighting styles of the two monsters are very tough. While releasing spells to attack each other, they opened their mouths to bite each other.

But the green scale crocodile has an owner.

At this time, the water turtle carried Zhou Chun and the three to the outside of the battlefield, and Zhou Jiahe on the back of the turtle immediately waved his hand and sacrificed a golden hairpin to shoot at the strange monster.

Zhou Chun and Zhou Jiahui also did not look at it, and each sacrificed their magical weapons to besiege the weird monster.

With the three of them working together like this, the weird monster couldn't escape even if it wanted to, so Zhou Chun's [Moon Blade Meteor Wheel] split its head and killed it in the water.

Because none of the three knew this strange monster, Zhou Chun thought that its corpse might be useful, so he cut it into several sections and put them in the storage bags of the three.

Then continue upstream to explore the place.

After going up against the current for another quarter of an hour, Zhou Jiahe's expression suddenly changed, as if he had discovered something.

She pointed at a certain place, signaling the water turtle to go there.

In this way, Zhou Chun and Zhou Jiahui soon understood what she had discovered.

I saw another cave intersection similar to the one they came in suddenly appeared in front of them.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Chun immediately made a decision to enter the cave to find out.

As a result, not long after they entered the cave, they encountered a large group of strange catfish-like fish.

At the same time, more than a dozen strange fish besieged the green-scaled crocodile that was clearing the way ahead, preventing it from going deep into the cave.

This made the three people in the back even more curious, and immediately joined the battlefield to kill and scatter the group of strange fish, and then continued to go deep into it.

But not long after, the strange fish that escaped before quickly came back with dozens of their own kind, and among them, there were three or four strange fish that exuded the aura of first-level top-grade monsters.

"retreat!"

Without hesitation, Zhou Chun immediately gave the order to retreat.

The three of them quickly changed to the green-scaled crocodile, which had a faster swimming speed and was more flexible, and then let the water-spinning turtle break off with its own huge size, and quickly retreated towards the underground river.

After fleeing all the way in a rather embarrassing way, the three of them finally escaped back to the underground river.

It's just that the poor spinner turtle was severely injured by the beating, and Zhou Jiahui had to put it back in the spirit animal bag temporarily.

And without the stable mount of the spinning water turtle, and the three of them had consumed a lot of mana, it was a pity to end this trip to the underground river at this time.

Gulong Gulong!

Suddenly a lot of air bubbles popped out of the calm pool, and then the mouth of the green-scaled crocodile popped out first.

On the back of the crocodile, Zhou Chun and the three stayed in the dark underground water world for an hour, and now they saw the light again, and they also opened their mouths wide to breathe in the fresh air.

After taking a few breaths of fresh air like this, Zhou Jiahe looked at Zhou Chun and said, "Nephew Zhengchun, this trip will almost end like this. Given the complicated situation in the underground river, if there are no foundation-building monks accompanying us, we will wait for you." It is impossible for a monk in the Qi refining period to stay in it for a long time!"

This time, the three of them teamed up and were killed by the group of strange fish, which shows the danger in the underground river.

Moreover, there is no place to meditate and rest within two hundred miles of this place, and they are not even good at using attrition tactics.

Therefore, in Zhou Jiahe's view, this matter would not have been possible without the companionship of the foundation-building monks.

Zhou Chun could use a purified stone jar to solve the problem of meditation and rest, but he didn't have a water war spirit pet, and his own cultivation was only at the ninth level of Qi refining, so he couldn't explore the underground river alone.

Therefore, although he was still a little unwilling and regretful in his heart, he still rationally agreed with Zhou Jiahe's suggestion, and agreed to go back to the family to report the results of this time.

"According to what Thirteenth Aunt said, let's go back and report to the patriarch what we have gained."
