"Big sister, fight back!"

On the lakeshore, Jiang Yueming held Jiang Qian with one hand and gripped a piece of land tightly with the other. Fine blood oozed from his fingers, and he felt as if he was about to be torn in two.

When he saw Jiang Qian staring straight at him, he completely lost his temper.

How come she, with her Ancient Realm cultivation, is always so slow to react when faced with danger?

"Cloud Light, Fierce Blade"

Hearing Jiang Yueming's urgent shout, Jiang Qian finally came to her senses, her jade fingers slightly touching her heart.

Two fiery red blades materialized out of thin air and severed the blue tentacle with two sharp cracks.

With the tentacles gone, Jiang Yueming felt much less pressure. He used his arms to pull Jiang Qian ashore, and then jumped into the water to land on the shore himself.

Just as he was about to clean the bloodstains on his palm, a deafening explosion suddenly rang out behind him, and waves surged hundreds of feet high in the lake, revealing a huge black-headed, nine-clawed octopus beast.

"That's a ferocious beast comparable to the Primordial Realm!" Jiang Qian's beautiful eyes narrowed as she stared in surprise at the black octopus, its entire body dripping wet.

She had lived in the Black Thunder Lake for more than two years and had never heard of any ferocious beasts lurking there.

Although they were both at the Ancient Realm, Jiang Qian could clearly feel that the terrifying pressure emanating from the black-headed octopus was much stronger than hers.

"Hey sis, what are you looking at? Run!"

Jiang Yueming didn't even look back, and immediately pulled Jiang Qian along and started running.

He also knew how powerful the black-headed, nine-clawed octopus beast was. Two years ago, on the eve of the competition, Jiang Yue led the team in their final pre-competition warm-up training.

Their target was this black-clawed octopus, which had taken them, seven Void Soul Realm cultivators, a great deal of effort to repel.

After having fought it once, Jiang Yueming never wanted to fight it again.

This ferocious beast possesses a Hun Tian Mo Zhu (a powerful black bead). Once activated, the octopus's figure and aura will be concealed. Unless one is at least at the seventh level of the Primordial Realm, it is impossible to break this move.

The black-headed, nine-clawed octopus can use this bead to constantly ambush enemies from the shadows, making it particularly difficult to deal with.

null! null!

The two figures in the black-headed octopus's fierce eyes shrank rapidly, and its nine tentacles immediately slapped the lake surface, creating waves that seemed to solidify in the air before shooting out like arrows.

Sensing the murderous intent emanating from behind, Jiang Yueming gritted his teeth, wrapped his arms around Jiang Qian, and with a slight tap of his finger between his eyebrows, strands of golden light burst forth.

"Golden Light Soul-Controlling Array, Array Formation, Radiant Reflection"

hum!

A golden spiritual shield appeared before Jiang Yueming's eyes, its blazing light flashing brilliantly. Under the illumination, the attack trajectories of the water waves, each carrying killing intent, changed.

Suddenly charging towards the black-headed octopus in the lake, it splashed water everywhere, obscuring the view, and a faint, ferocious howl echoed from the depths.

puff!

A mouthful of red blood suddenly spurted from Jiang Yueming's mouth, his body became slightly unsteady, and the golden light between his eyebrows began to turn transparent and colorless.

"Are you alright?" Jiang Qian quickly helped Jiang Yueming up, her face showing a hint of worry.

Jiang Yueming wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, shook her head, and said, "It's nothing, let's go now!"

call out!

Jiang Yueming hadn't walked far when a dark blue tentacle wrapped around his left foot, and a pulling force forced him to keep walking to the lakeside.

"You go first, don't worry about me. Go to the caravan and find a girl named Ye Mo to rescue me."

Fortunately, Jiang Yueming reacted quickly and pushed Jiang Qian away the moment the tentacle touched her ankle; otherwise, the two of them would be entangled now.

"No way! Leaving someone to die isn't my style!"

After speaking, Jiang Qian channeled her spiritual energy and her jade finger condensed a red blade again, severing the tentacles binding Jiang Yueming's feet with a snap.

But this also bought the black-headed octopus time to regain its sight.

"Come on, you stinky monster!"

Jiang Qianmei unfurled a pair of clear green spirit wings on her back, lightly touched the ground with her toes, and soared into the air. Her aura was powerful and surging, and her eyes locked onto the black-headed octopus, revealing her murderous intent.

Roar!

The black-headed octopus still sensed Jiang Qian's provocation, and its nine tentacles slapped the lake water even more violently, each tentacle transforming into a sharp sword that lashed out at Jiang Qian.

Faced with a deadly attack, Jiang Qian gritted her teeth, drew a large silver knife with her bare hand, and, flapping her spirit wings, charged down at the black-headed octopus.

Watching the intense fight unfold before him, Jiang Yueming was exasperated and wanted to curse.

None of these women are obedient; first there was Ye Mo, and now there's Jiang Qian!

Now you'd better get ready to buy two coffins!

Judging from the black-headed octopus's imposing aura, it must have broken through to the eighth stage of the Primordial Realm, while Jiang Qian was only at the third stage of the Primordial Realm.

She can still hold her own against the black-headed octopus because it hasn't used its full strength yet. With the addition of that Hun Tian Ink Pearl, this ferocious beast's strength might even reach the Tai Xu Realm.

"I'm really impressed by you guys," Jiang Yueming shook his head, his gaze sweeping across the shore as if searching for something.

Before long, Jiang Qian was at a disadvantage. The black-headed octopus retaliated with a tentacle, sending her flying to Jiang Yueming's side.

Seeing Jiang Qian's increasingly pale face, Jiang Yueming casually fed her a blade of grass and said, "Don't just sit still, move around a little longer, I'll be better soon."

Jiang Qian blinked her beautiful eyes and spat out some green grass. Just as she was about to angrily scold Jiang Yueming, she felt a warm current envelop her whole body, and the pain from the previous battle was gradually dissipating.

She knew it must be because of that blade of grass, so she didn't ask any more questions and immediately returned to the battlefield to kill the octopus.

"What? You seem to want to refine pills?"

Fu Dongliu's figure slowly coalesced in the void, his eyes examining the herbs in Jiang Yueming's hand.

Sunflower, Purple Fairy, Lake Water Flower.

All three herbs have extremely strong paralyzing effects, generally lasting for three minutes. However, if they are refined into a first-grade elixir, it will become a paralyzing pill.

The paralyzing effect can last up to half an hour, but every time you refine a pill, there is a failure rate, and the failure rate of refining pills by hand increases rapidly.

Since Jiang Yueming doesn't have a pill-refining furnace, he can only refine pills with his bare hands.

However, according to Fu Dongliu's observation, Jiang Yueming only has one chance, because he only has one copy of the Purple Illusion Immortal.

"Jiang Yueming, how about I teach you alchemy?" Fu Dongliu thought for a moment and smiled.

He hadn't realized Jiang Yueming was a promising alchemist before, but after examining him just now, he suddenly discovered that he was already a second-grade alchemist!

There are twelve grades of elixirs in the world, with the first being the lowest and the twelfth being the highest.

In the records of the Medicine God Palace's alchemy mortal realm, there has never been a case of someone who was a second-grade alchemist at the age of thirteen.

Genius! A true genius!

Upon seeing Fu Dongliu, Jiang Yueming paused in her work of arranging herbs, narrowed her eyes, and asked, "Little Dongliu, aren't you the God of Medicine? What grade of pills do you have?"

He had just remembered Fu Dongliu, this master alchemist. Since that was the case, why bother with alchemy at all! Why not just take it directly from him?

"The grade of pills? There's no such thing as a grade of pills in this world; it's just a matter of whether you love alchemy or not."

A confident smile appeared on Fu Dongliu's face. He put his hands behind his back, letting the strong wind blow his white clothes, and a little smugness hung on his lips.

Jiang Yueming rolled her eyes, too lazy to watch him pretend, and asked again, "Do you have any paralysis pills on hand?"
