Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 119 Crocodile Monster
Li Fan looked towards the cold pond and saw that the demon had a flat head and was wearing armor, with dim light in his eyes.

"Crocodile monster."

The attacks of the disciples from Bailu Academy fell, but they failed to break the crocodile monster's hard armor. The cultivator who was rolled up by its tail was bitten on the head and then eaten alive. The scene was extremely bloody.

Huang Xiong was also staring at that side, and when he saw the demon, he was eager to move forward.

"Let's go." Li Fan said. Huang Xiong thought that these academy disciples had wronged him and even wanted to deal with him, so he did not hesitate and the group retreated.

The disciples of Bailu Academy were busy dealing with the crocodile monster, so they naturally had no time to pay attention to them.

The group turned around and ran away from the cold pond area.

"I didn't expect that the students of Bailu Academy are just like this." Someone from the monster hunting team spoke up, with disappointment in his words.

Huang Xiong seemed a little silent. He was the most disappointed.

"They are just people, don't have too high expectations. Although Bailu Academy is a holy place for cultivation in Jiangzhou, it only provides a place for cultivation. It does not mean that the characters of the disciples who cultivate in the academy are good." Li Fan said: "Of course, we can't deny Bailu Academy just because of the character of some of its disciples."

"It seems that Brother Yang is a polite person." Huang Xiong nodded and admired Li Fan very much.

During this crisis, Li Fan saved them again.

"Why are we so unlucky this time?" Someone said depressedly. Although they had encountered dangers in Yunmengze before, they had never encountered continuous crises like this time.

"Since you are unlucky, let's get out early." Li Fan said.

"Brother Yang, do you mean to leave Yunmengze?" Huang Xiong turned around and looked into the distance, his eyes full of murderous intent: "We haven't killed him yet."

"The wicked will be punished by others, he will not survive." Li Fan said: "Dai Long is insidious, and Bailu Academy also knows you. Although you have left, I am afraid there will be troubles later. Brother Huang, you go out first, and I will find you when the time comes."

"Brother Yang, aren't you leaving?" Huang Xiong asked in surprise.

"I'll kill a few more demons and hunt for some demon pills before I go out." Li Fan said, "Don't worry, Brother Huang. I'm familiar with this area and know the way back. If I'm alone, I'll be a smaller target and it'll be easy to get out if I get into trouble."

Huang Xiong thought about it, then nodded and said, "Brother Yang, I'll wait for you at the meeting place."

"Okay." Li Fan nodded: "Go ahead."

Huang Xiong and the others said goodbye and turned to leave. Xiao Kui glanced at Li Fan, jumped onto Huang Xiong's shoulders and left together.

Li Fan turned around and returned the same way, quickening his pace and heading straight in the direction where the disciples of Bailu Academy were.

In the woods, Li Fan's figure was as fast as the wind. He came to the area near the cold pond, but did not go over there. Instead, he jumped onto an ancient tree and sat on it. His spiritual consciousness went towards the cold pond, and suddenly the battle over there was clearly imprinted in his eyes.

I saw the disciples of Bailu Academy were surrounding and killing the crocodile monster. The crocodile monster was a fourth-level demon, and now it had transformed into a half-human, half-demon form, with a tall and flat body, a hideous head, extremely sharp claws, and was wearing demon armor.

Blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth. Several people had already died at the hands of this demon.

A sharp spear was thrown towards the crocodile monster, and it landed on his armor, but still could not pierce it. The crocodile monster's palms were covered with scales, and he directly grabbed the opponent's sword and pulled it hard. The opponent's expression changed in shock. At this time, an extremely sharp sword shot from the side towards the crocodile monster's head.

The crocodile monster's head tilted, and the sword bent, hitting the crocodile monster's head and knocking it away, but even so, it failed to pierce it.

"What a strong defense."

The disciples of Bailu Academy looked embarrassed. The crocodile monster could not be killed, but they could not withstand its attack.

The crocodile demon stared at the crowd, and his gaze suddenly fell on Ji Xue. He smiled evilly and said, "This human woman is so white and tender, her meat must be delicious. I will have a good meal with her today."

He had already noticed that these academy disciples seemed to take good care of that woman, and he was probably an important person.

As he spoke, his body suddenly accelerated forward and headed straight towards where Ji Xue was. A demonic aura burst out, and the crocodile demon's body swayed left and right, as elusive as a phantom.

"Stop that beast." Yun Zhiqiu shouted, and the sword burst out. At the same time, the people who were surrounding the crocodile monster on the left and right sides rushed out at the same time, rushing straight towards the crocodile monster, trying to stop it.

But at this moment, the crocodile monster suddenly turned and pounced to the side. Its extremely sharp tail instantly pierced through a figure that was coming to kill it, nailing him to death in the air.

"What a cunning demon."

The disciples of Bailu Academy were protecting Ji Xue, and only after seeing this scene did they realize that they had been fooled.

"withdraw."

Yun Zhiqiu said that this time he accompanied Ji Xue to Yunmengze for the trial, but he did not go deep into it. Unexpectedly, he encountered an extremely difficult fourth-level demon.

If they continue like this, they will be killed one by one.

The disciples of Bailu Academy retreated. The crocodile monster stared at them and strode forward. He licked his lips and seemed to enjoy this hunting moment very much.

"boom."

The crocodile monster's body turned into a residual shadow, swinging left and right forward at an extremely terrifying speed.

"Let's split up." Yun Zhiqiu said, "Junior Sister Ji, I'll take you away."

After saying that, he flew on his sword and took Ji Xue away in one direction. When everyone saw Yun Zhiqiu's actions, they cursed in their hearts. Yun Zhiqiu was a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Realm, and was considered the best among the crowd. He did not think about intercepting the crocodile monster, but took Ji Xue away.

However, they also made prompt decisions and headed in different directions to distract the crocodile monster's attention.

The crocodile monster paused, then grinned grimly, and chased in the direction where Yun Zhiqiu and Ji Xue left.

Dai Long fled alone in one direction, just leaving behind the academy disciples, and he was unwilling to go with them. He was very fast and quickly got into the woods. He was very familiar with the terrain.

After a while, Dai Long came to a secret place, took out a package from it, and then changed into a black robe and another mask. He was fully prepared.

"Who?"

Just as Dai Long was about to put on the mask, he suddenly heard a noise. He shouted coldly and looked around. He realized that someone was spying on him.

Suddenly, he felt an extremely dangerous feeling, accompanied by the sound of a sharp sword whistling. He looked forward suddenly and saw a golden sword shooting towards him like an arrow.

The sword light was bright at the center of Dai Long's eyebrows, and the sword seed bloomed, but the golden sword passed by from the side and pierced into his forehead in an instant, killing him with one blow.

Dai Long trembled a little, and then he saw a figure in white walking slowly towards him.

"It's you..." Dai Long fell backwards without closing his eyes.

Li Fan walked up to him, opened the package, and found a lot of demon pills. He didn't know whether they were obtained by killing demons or hunting humans.

Li Fan took off his sword, hid it in the package, and put it together with the demon pill. He then put on the black robe prepared by the other party and put on the mask, which immediately gave people a cold feeling.

"This is a lot more convenient." Li Fan flashed away with the package on his back and picked up a sword on the way.

In this way, he doesn't have to worry about exposing his identity, so he has to thank Dai Long.

Li Fan released his spiritual consciousness and followed the direction that the crocodile monster had chased him in. The crocodile monster was a fourth-level demon, and its demon pill must be very tonic.

Following the trail all the way, Li Fan heard the sound of fighting from afar. He continued to move forward and saw many trees in an area were cut down.

Li Fan walked forward and came to the place where the battlefield broke out. He saw that the crocodile monster was filled with demonic energy. In the distance, a figure fell down and was injured. It was Yun Zhiqiu. He coughed up blood and his face was pale.

Yun Zhiqiu stared at the crocodile monster, but he couldn’t break through it... No matter what he did, he couldn’t break through the crocodile monster’s defense.

"Senior Brother Yun." Ji Xue looked at Yun Zhiqiu.

"Junior sister, I'm sorry." Yun Zhiqiu looked at Ji Xue. After he finished speaking, he turned around and flew away on his sword, abandoning Ji Xue.

Ji Xue's face turned pale. Now, all the disciples who had been taking the trial with her from Bailu Academy had dispersed, and Yun Zhiqiu had also abandoned her. How could she possibly stop this crocodile monster?

Although people die in Yunmengze every day, she has just entered the academy and become a favored girl of heaven. Will she die here during her first trial in Yunmengze?
Ji Xue's face was pale and she was holding a magic weapon in her hand.

The crocodile demon rushed towards her with a grim smile.

Suddenly, the crocodile monster seemed to sense the danger. It turned around and saw a sharp sword shooting towards it.

The crocodile monster raised his hand and grabbed the flying sword directly. The sword turned and moved like a ghost, killing the crocodile monster's eyes.

The crocodile monster closed his eyes and scales covered his eyes.

"boom……"

The powerful force pushed the crocodile monster back, but even so it did not hurt it, it just caused a stinging pain in its eyes.

The sword flew back, the crocodile monster opened his eyes, and saw a masked man in a black robe walking towards him.

A human being in the out-of-body state?
There are people seeking death again.

The crocodile monster rushed forward and headed straight for where Li Fan was. Li Fan also moved forward with sword intent lingering around him.

His cultivation level is now at the middle stage of the Out-of-Body Realm, and he has never fought against the fourth level demons. This is a good opportunity for him to use this crocodile demon to hone his combat capabilities.

The bodies of the man and the monster approached each other in an instant. The crocodile monster stretched out its arms forward and stabbed at Li Fan with its sharp claws. If the sharp claws hit, one blow would be enough to tear a practitioner in the out-of-body state apart.

Li Fan drew his sword in an instant. The sword was as fast as lightning, extremely fast, and as unpredictable as light and shadow. It slashed towards the crocodile monster's eyes. It was the sword technique of Li Shan's inheritance.

The crocodile monster didn't expect the human sword in front of him to be so fast, and he closed his eyes again.

"boom……"

The sword slashed at the slit of the crocodile monster's eyes, trying to cut it open, but the crocodile monster's eyes were tightly closed. Even so, it still let out a cry of pain and its body retreated violently.

Li Fan's body was as fast as the wind, and he entered the state of unity between man and nature. The crocodile monster's defense was horrible, and its eyes were the only weakness he found.

"cut."

Li Fan swung his sword, and sword lights flashed. The crocodile monster roared in pain, and put one arm in front of its eyes to protect it, not daring to open its eyes. Li Fan's sword turned into a heavy sword and slashed on the opponent's head.

The crocodile monster's body was chopped off and flew away, hitting a giant tree and cracking the tree directly.

Ji Xue, who was standing next to him, was moved when she saw this scene. She looked at the black-robed and masked figure in shock.

Yun Zhiqiu was at the foundation-building stage, and the cultivation base of the students in the academy was also strong. They were unable to do anything against the crocodile monster under siege and were defeated one by one by the opponent, forcing them to flee in different directions.

But before him, a sword cultivator who was in the middle stage of out-of-body realm actually came out alone to fight the crocodile monster head-on and knocked it away.

This kind of fighting power...
