Yamafu Military Affairs

Chapter 162 Signs
boom!
The blade penetrated the flesh, the scales shattered, and the thousand-year-old species suddenly revealed its bluish-white, translucent eel flesh.

The shadow of the water god Tian Wu emerged from behind Qin Huai. The god's golden eyes were blazing, his tiger claws were fierce, and there was dark blue lightning wrapped around his body in the clouds.

A blood-red ball of light exploded with Qin Huai as the center and spread in all directions. Countless thunder pythons and electric snakes swayed and hissed in the light ball, making people feel as if they were falling into hell.

Blood and flesh splattered, and thunder exploded.

The fish demon Qianyu's body twitched twice, and its huge body as big as the seabed fell down with a loud bang. The dense scales and flesh on its flanks were blown open, revealing its white bones.

died?

Looking at the silent ancient alien species, Qin Huai let out a breath and looked at the Shayun mud ball with a somewhat fierce look.

Zhiming and the other man were delighted when they saw countless snake legs falling down and the golden light flowing in the galaxy gradually extinguished.

In the deep sea where mud was rolling, a rock about ten feet in diameter moved sideways. The eyelids of the reef wrinkled, and the dark pupils slowly appeared, and the bright golden light illuminated the dark seabed slightly.

The snake's legs retracted and supported its body. The "seabed" suddenly rose, and the body of the thousand-meter-long sea bream began to float gradually.

The earth-shaking vibrations instantly spread throughout the water, not only making Qin Huai and the other two unstable and dizzy, but also releasing an even more terrifying black tide.

[Death Tide]: It is composed of sharp-toothed snake fish hatched by Thousand Tilapia. It often lurks in the Bone Tide and is one of the Thousand Tilapia's deadly killing moves.

[Sharp-toothed snake fish]: It has a mouth full of sharp teeth and can bite through the skin of elephants and rhinoceros. Although it has a ferocious temperament and is not afraid of death, it is still just a flesh and blood body.

Seeing the golden pupil, which was much bigger than a millstone, staring at him, he knew that the death tide storm formed by the sharp-toothed snake fish was about to come.

Qin Huai's eyes condensed, and the waves under his feet burst open. Under the powerful power provided by Canglan, in a blink of an eye, the warrior rushed out like a swimming fish.

But just as Qin Huai was rapidly rising and about to escape from the dangerous place, an inexplicable dizziness suddenly swept over Qin Huai's body, forcing him to stop and lose his spirit.

how come?
Perhaps because it had been soaking in the water for a long time, the fleeting glimpse that had collected enough information gave a timely hint.

[Eel Blood Poison]: The fish poison contained in the blood of the eel is spread all over its body, including its hundreds of heads and thousands of legs. It can confuse people's minds and damage their bodies.

Still got hit?
Qin Huai bit his tongue, forced himself to cheer up, and a dark silver talisman engraved with Xuanhuang Dao patterns appeared in his hand.

Small shrinking talisman!

Before Qin Huai could burn the blood flame and activate the talisman, a black and brown tree net crossed the turbid water and accurately caught the falling warrior.

It turned out that the rampant witch discovered that something was wrong and immediately lent a hand. This is how Qin Huai was rescued from the danger and prevented him from falling into the death tide that devoured gold and bones.

"Walk"

The thousand-headed whale at the bottom of the abyss has now revealed most of its body. Its bloody mouth, which is more than ten meters long, suddenly opened, and countless streams of water were sucked into its body.

A strong suction force came from under the three people, and the sea water poured out upside down. The arms of the rampant witch were knotted and gnarled, and the huge tree hundreds of feet high that appeared behind him was flat and elongated. He wanted to use the water resistance to resist the suction force, but it had little effect. The wooden board did not last long before it began to crumble bit by bit, and the three people were slowly but firmly pulled towards the huge mouth of the Thousand Sea Tuna and the black tide of death.

At this critical moment, Zhiming took out the huge crystal, chanting Buddhist mantras in his heart.

"Its light is as bright as ten thousand suns"

The thirty-two characteristics: the body is like light!

The crystal in the monk's hand exploded like a blazing sun, and golden light penetrated the sky and the earth, illuminating the dark seabed a hundred meters deep as if it were daylight.

A flame of light with tens of thousands of lumens arrived in front of Qianyu in an instant and rushed into its dark golden pupil that was ten feet wide without any hesitation.

Bang!
The Thousand-legged Fish Demon roared silently, its body twisting continuously. It closed its pupils that were painfully burned by the flames, and swung its thousand feet to stir up the deep sea currents, making them extremely turbulent.

The high-speed turbulent current rushed through the water and reached the three people in an instant, trying to tear the three little guys to pieces. The rampant witch relied on the solid trunk of the tree and managed to pull Qin Huai out of the gravel and sea sand.

Zhiming, who was struggling to resist the black tide, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Qin Huai was out of danger for the time being. Without further ado, the Infinite Vajra behind the monk immediately summoned the five-colored cloud to protect the three of them, and quickly floated up to the sea surface.

Halfway through the journey, the two people who were breaking through the waves in front suddenly stopped, and the Buddha's light and tree skin disappeared into nothingness. It was obvious that they were also poisoned by the [Eel Blood Illusion Poison].

The three of them gradually slowed down, and the Thousand Seabreams at the bottom of the abyss also slowed down. Hundreds of blue-black snake legs stretched out angrily and quickly approached the three evil guests who wanted to escape from the sea.

Qin Huai, who had recovered some strength, tore open the purple medicine talisman, and drops of nectar immediately seeped into the bodies of the three people through the sea water.

Qingwei Ganlu Purple Talisman: Instantly recover from most external injuries and purify all negative states.

The green and blue waves appeared beneath him and stopped the three people from falling. Qin Huai's face turned cold and he grabbed one person with each hand, and his ascending speed suddenly increased.

The sea was raging with waves and howling with fierce winds. A black shadow in the shape of a "mountain" emerged from the sea, leaving behind two giant cloud wings.

Dozens of blue-black snake feet followed closely behind, and the black tide of death that rose into the sky bombarded Qin Huai and the other two who were flying in the air like a string of cannonballs.

With the flapping of cloud wings and the help of strong wind, Qin Huai falcon was struggling in the air, dodging the mudslides coming from the sea one by one.

Not wanting to get entangled with the sea beast, after striking down dozens of dragon thunders, Qin Huai flapped his wings, and the three of them glided towards the beach, leaving behind dozens of tentacles and the black tide of death.

Above the sea, the cluster of snake feet stopped moving, and a hint of human anger appeared in their golden eyes as they looked towards the black spots on the horizon.

Woo~
Countless dark blue air currents drifted out from the sea and spread into the air, adding another boost to the howling evil wind. The clouds in the sky were also affected by the black tornado, gathering into large groups of dark clouds.
-
Under the cloud wings in the sky, Zhiming and the other person, who were treated in time by Ganlu after the outbreak of the phantom poison, gradually recovered.

Looking at the direction Qin Huai was heading, the monk thought: "Donor Qin, are you going to Qifeng?"

"Yes, I have some questions I would like to ask Master Huineng."

Guangyu was not there, and Zhiming and the others did not know the origin of the sea beast. Qin Huai thought about it and decided to go to Qifeng to ask the knowledgeable Buddhist Vajra first.

The meteorological force slowly consumed, and half a moment later, Qin Huai saw the proudly standing peak of Jade Mountain.

The cloud wings dissipated, and Huineng looked at the three people who looked somewhat embarrassed, with a strange expression on his face.

After the fierce battle with the Thousand Sea Turtle in the seabed, Qin Huai and his two companions did not look very good.

Qin Huai was wearing a tattered, wet military uniform. His hair and neck were covered in mud and mucus. His exposed skin was covered in purple bruises. He looked like he had just escaped from the sea.

The monk's robe had been torn, and he was now naked, breathing and recovering his energy. After enduring the aftermath of the tail punch, the black tide of death, and the eel blood poison, Zhiming's meteorological power had reached its limit, and he inevitably looked a little depressed.

The state of the rampant witch was not good either. He was the most poisoned among the three people, having absorbed the essence of several snake feet. However, as the tumor on his left shoulder gradually expanded, his complexion also improved a lot. It was obvious that he had a secret detoxification technique that was unknown to others.

"Since you three look like this, did you gain anything?" Huineng had a sharp eye and could tell at a glance that the mucus on Qin Huai's body came from some kind of sea beast.

"Yes, Master, please have a look."

Qin Huai nodded, stretched out his hand and waved, and several things were blown up by the strong wind and brought to Huineng.

Dark brown tentacles, bluish white eel meat, and fine scales.
After Huineng took the remaining part of the snake's foot, he first crushed the reef rock shell, then looked at the fleshy thorns and gelatin inside. When he saw that he could not make out anything special, he raised it to his nose and smelled it.

"This thing is poisonous."

The seventh consciousness sent a faint warning, and Huineng frowned slightly. After using the same method on the green and white eel meat, he came to a very different conclusion.

“This is a great tonic.”

Finally, this Buddhist Vajra stroked the fine scales and sharp-toothed snake fish and thought for a long time before he found out the details of this sea beast from the ancient books of Zhenbei in his memory.

"Does this sea monster have multiple heads and legs, and look like a strange snake?"

"Master, you are indeed well-informed. This beast does have a thousand legs, and each of its tentacles has a snake head. It is very strange."

Qin Huai was refreshed, and hurriedly told him all the information he had learned in the past two days: "This snake is several dozen feet long, its eyes are like big tables, and its mouth is like a blood jar. It is estimated that it has the ability to control wind and water."

Huineng listened to Qin Huai's narration while comparing it with the ancient books in his memory. When Qin Huai finished speaking, Huineng nodded and spoke slowly.

"Chen Ji said: In ancient times, there was a fish demon that caused harm, but it was later eliminated by Lord Helong. I think this fish demon should be the sea beast you encountered today."

Huineng took out a cup of clean water and handed it to Zhiming. Then he stood on the dangerous cliff and looked into the distance at the junction of the sea and the sky.

"According to the legend of Jiaozhi, the Helong Lord once sent the Water Palace Yaksha to calm the storm and warn the fish spirit. However, the fish spirit was not yet enlightened, and the advice was useless, and it continued to cause trouble. The Helong Lord was helpless and had to put the Red Flame Divine Iron into its mouth, which greatly reduced its magical power. After a fight, the Helong Lord used a sharp sword to cut off its tail, peeled off its skin, and cut off its head, thus eliminating this scourge."

"But since this fish demon is causing trouble again, this legend must be a little biased. Just treat it as a story."

Qin Huai stroked his chin, combined Huineng's explanation with the information he got at a glimpse, and came up with the most likely answer.

"Perhaps the Helong Lord did not kill the fish spirit at that time, but only locked it in the earth veins to let it reflect. It was not until the ground qi of Jiaozhi was turbulent four months ago that the fish spirit escaped from the cage by chance and started to cause trouble to the world again."

Huineng nodded without comment and motioned Qin Huai to sit down and talk.

Qin Huai sat down on the edge of the cliff without changing his expression and talked about his plan.

"Although Huai doesn't know what the master is planning, he feels that this evil creature must be eliminated."

Although the mission of the Three Officials to send him here was to deliver the rare treasure to Prince Mu's Mansion, Qin Huai never forgot the specific requirements of the Extra Yama Incident - to eliminate the violent winds and waves between the Jade Mountain and Jade Water.

So here in Qinhuai, the fish spirit Qianyu must die.

His words now were not only to test Huineng's attitude, but also to find a reason for his subsequent behavior.

Even if this Buddhist Vajra is unwilling to take action, he still has a way to kill the troublemaking fish demon Qianyu.

Just now when he activated [Reverse Rebirth] at the bottom of the sea, he found that the defense of this thousand seabream was not very high, and was about the same as that of an ordinary celestial being.

As long as he can attract more and stronger thunder, he still has a good chance of completing the task.

"After the rare treasure is born and saves the countless hungry ghosts, I will send the fish demon to reincarnation."

Huineng patted the dark gold staff, and bursts of Sanskrit sounds rang out, contrasting with the calm words.

"I'm just afraid that the fish demon won't give up."

Qin Huai looked towards the distance where the sea and sky met, his tone somewhat inexplicable.

There, a large mass of dark clouds was approaching the Jade Water.

The abnormal water vapor was discovered by the sensitive Tian Wu. Combined with the feedback from Canglan, Qin Huai was certain that when the rare treasure came out in two days, the fish demon would make a big fuss.

Huineng followed Qin Huai's gaze and was slightly dazed, but soon regained his composure.

"The fish spirit is afraid of fire and gold. Since you have such concerns, then make good preparations."

After saying that, he closed his eyes, and the Buddhist beads in his hand began to slowly rotate, no longer paying attention to Qin Huai and the other two.

"Thank you for your advice, Master. I will take my leave now."

Not long after Qin Huai and the other two left, a statue of Mahakala suddenly appeared behind Huineng.

Next to the Arhat's Demon-Subduing Stick, the Fearful Vajra bound and suppressed the black air coming out of the strange peak, and then suddenly disappeared as if it had never been there.

In the Shuiyan Cave, Qin Huai was introducing the origin of the fish spirit to everyone from the three departments.

"This sea beast is the ancient fish spirit Qianyu, with a hundred heads and a thousand feet. Its weakness is that it is afraid of fire and gold. We can do something about it."

After hearing the origin of the sea beast, the people from the three divisions digested the information while raising several questions.

"Since this fish demon is afraid of fire and gold, can you find a way to lure it out of the sea?"

The one who spoke was Guan Wei, who asked the question that everyone was most concerned about. After all, neither he nor Long Sui's Blue Flame Rose Fire could be used underwater. If the sea beast insisted on being a coward, then the two of them could only sigh in despair, and their skills would be useless.

"There is indeed a way, but I don't know whether it is feasible or not."

Qin Huai nodded and told his idea: "After these two encounters with Qianyu, I found that when this fish spirit pursues prey on the sea, it only gathers its snake legs to attack, and its main body never moves out. But the fish spirit has limited snake legs, at most a few hundred. You can wait and see on the sea and eliminate all the snake legs that rush out. If the fish spirit feels sorry for the loss of its snake legs and takes the initiative to reveal its main body and float to the surface of the sea, it will naturally be the best. Even if it shrinks and stops harassing us, we will not suffer any loss, but can get the treasure with peace of mind. It won't be too late to deal with this big fish when Master Huineng is free."

After a long silence, Zhiming chanted the Buddha's name: "Donor Qin's method is a win-win strategy. You can give it a try."

Qin Huai shrugged and said nothing more.

In his opinion, as long as the three divisions could destroy some of the snake's feet and weaken the fighting power of the Thousand Seagulls to a certain extent, then even if the fish spirit stayed at the bottom of the sea and could not come out, he had the confidence to kill the Thousand Seagulls with one strike by activating multiple purple thunder talismans.

"Master, maybe we can..."
