Avenue Stowaway

As soon as the bamboo vine entered the water, it swam towards the direction of the battle at the bottom of the lake at a speed faster than on land. Kong Fang saw this scene as soon as he rushed into the water. He was speechless and shocked.

"How much power is contained in this little thing's small body that it can actually burst out at such a fast speed in the water." A seed is round and can't even swim, but the speed of the bamboo vine seed swimming is incredibly fast, obviously relying on the power in the body.

"Stop right there!" Kong Fang didn't care whether the bamboo vine seed could understand him or not. The power of his soul radiated forward quickly and he shouted angrily.

It's no wonder that after Kong Fang transmitted the sound, the speed of the phoenix vine seed really slowed down a lot. Kong Fang was stunned for a moment, "This works?" Kong Fang himself felt a little unbelievable. He just tried to transmit the sound in a hurry, but he didn't expect that the phoenix vine seed seemed to really understand what he said.

This seed is now becoming more and more evil, and this thought immediately popped up in Kong Fang's mind.

Just when Kong Fang was both happy and surprised at the slowdown of the Huang Teng Seed, suddenly, Kong Fang's head was black, and his mouth opened wide, his expression was full of surprise and anger. The Huang Teng Seed, which had just slowed down, suddenly sped up again, and the speed was even faster than before.

The lake water was directly cut open, and the bamboo vine seeds rushed towards the bottom of the lake where the magic power fluctuations were coming from at an extremely fast speed.

"This..." Kong Fang was slightly stunned, and could only speed up. Each of them planted a seed, and they rushed to the bottom of the lake one after another.

The place where the black-armored monks and the shelled monsters were fighting was not too far from the lake, and with the speed of Kong Fang and the dark bamboo vine seeds, it would not take long to get there.

In fact, Kong Fang's original body has the talent of water. In the lake, he only needs to control the surrounding water flow to restrict the phoenix vine seed. But Kong Fang, who was chasing after the phoenix vine seed, did not do so. At first, Kong Fang did want to catch the phoenix vine seed, but after seeing the various abilities displayed by the phoenix vine seed, Kong Fang could not help but change his mind.

Although Kong Fang didn't know whether the bamboo vine seed had really awakened its intelligence, it was definitely very cunning now. Kong Fang didn't believe that such a bamboo vine seed would run to the battlefield at the bottom of the lake to seek death. It must have some reason for doing so.

Therefore, Kong Fang just followed the Bamboo Vine Seed and did not rush to catch it. Seeing that Kong Fang was no longer in a hurry to catch up, the Bamboo Vine Seed slowed down again. As the speed slowed down, the noise it made when moving forward naturally became much smaller.

The Youhuangvine seed actually showed a trace of ability to judge the situation, which made Kong Fang marvel once again. Kong Fang was now more willing to believe that the Youhuangvine seed had awakened its spiritual intelligence, rather than being a seed with only instincts.

The waves of the battle at the bottom of the lake were getting stronger and stronger. It was obvious that Kong Fang and his men were getting closer and closer to the battlefield. After walking a distance again, Kong Fang could already see the battlefield.

The lake bottom, because of the battle, has become very turbid. But the undercurrent is surging, and these undercurrents have very strong power. If a cultivator in the Ascension Realm is caught in it, he will be torn into pieces.

Seeing this, Kong Fang was slightly startled, and without caring whether the Bamboo Vine Seed could understand him or not, he immediately said in a voice transmission: "It is very dangerous ahead, don't go forward..." Before Kong Fang finished his words, he saw the Bamboo Vine Seed rushing into the undercurrent.

Kong Fang stared with his eyes wide open, but could only swallow the rest of his words.

In the undercurrent that contains extremely strong power, the Bamboo Vine Seed is like a flexible fish, always finding the gap in the undercurrent and swimming quickly. At this time, its small body helps a lot. Sometimes, the Bamboo Vine Seed will even borrow the power of the undercurrent to make it swim faster.

Kong Fang gritted his teeth and rushed into the undercurrent, which could not hurt him at all. Even if he did not use his magic power, Kong Fang's strong body alone was enough to resist the tearing of these undercurrents. Of course, if he only relied on his body, Kong Fang would not be able to speed up under the influence of these undercurrents.

"I thought it was quite cunning, but I didn't expect it to be such a fool! How can it just barge in a place like this?" Kong Fang was a little annoyed. He used his magic power to clear the undercurrents around him and quickly rushed into the undercurrent.

After rushing through the undercurrent area, the lake water was not as turbid as the undercurrent area, but became much clearer, but the bloody smell in the lake water suddenly became very strong. At this time, the black-armored monks and others were still fighting frantically with the shell monster, but what shocked Kong Fang was that the shell monster that lost two tentacles was not easily solved by the black-armored monks, and the two sides fought evenly.

In the water, the originally clumsy body of the crustacean monster was surprisingly flexible and fast. Its mouthparts and its arthropod legs with barbs and a layer of black, metallic light on them became its weapons of attack.

Even its shell, which was originally only used to withstand attacks from the black-armored monks, became its powerful weapon. When the shelled monster moved quickly in the water, all the monks in the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm who were hit by the hard and thick shell vomited blood and flew backwards.

There were some broken limbs and arms floating around the black-armored monk. Obviously, some people had lost their lives here again.

Kong Fang glanced at the battle situation and found that there were only eight people left on the side of the black-armored monks. These eight people were able to fight until now, and their strength was obviously the strongest among all of them, but it was not an easy task for the eight of them to take down the shelled monster that looked a little violent at this time. Even if they could really take it down in the end, they would definitely have to pay a heavy price.

Kong Fang glanced at it and stopped paying attention. No matter who won or lost, it had nothing to do with him. At this time, he just wanted to protect the seeds of the Youhuang vine.

Kong Fang didn't want to get involved in this matter, but some people didn't want to let him go.

The black-armored monks and the others were all shocked to find that there was suddenly one more person on the battlefield. Before they prepared to deal with the shell monster, they had actually checked the surroundings. They could not allow others to hide in the dark and suddenly run out to take advantage after they had defeated the shell monster with great difficulty.

After checking, they only found those mid-stage Spiritual Transformation cultivators who had fled far away, and no one else. But at this moment, there was suddenly one more person here, and the black-armored cultivators were shocked.

Of course, at that time, the middle-aged monk who had been hiding with Kong Fang to the end had been frightened by the cloth-clothed monks and flew out of his hiding place, and finally had to join the black-armored monks.

During the interval of the battle, the black-armored monks and others quickly glanced at Kong Fang and found that Kong Fang was only in the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, and they were slightly relieved. It was not so easy for a monk in the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm to take the storage ring from them.

"My fellow Daoist, you suddenly appear now, I guess it's for the storage ring?" The voice of the black-armored monk rang in everyone's mind, which made the others who were dealing with the shelled monsters feel depressed. They have fought hard until now, how could they let others get the advantage easily? They all hated Kong Fang in their hearts, and if they were not entangled by the monsters, they would have wanted to kill Kong Fang immediately.

Kong Fang did not reply, but used his soul power to lock onto the dark bamboo vine seeds that were quietly swimming deeper into the lake. When he found that the dark bamboo vine seeds were not heading straight for the battlefield, Kong Fang was slightly relieved. As for the black-armored monk, Kong Fang had no time to deal with him.

Seeing that Kong Fang was unwilling to say even a word, the black-armored monk's face suddenly darkened. After dodging the leg of the shelled monster that was stabbing at him, the black-armored monk transmitted the message again: "Now I give you two choices. Either you join us in dealing with this monster, or we give up on this monster and then join forces to kill you first!" The black-armored monk's voice had become extremely cold and full of threats.

The black-armored monk believed that under such circumstances, Kong Fang had no choice but to join them. Although Kong Fang's cultivation was not very high, it would be very helpful for them to have one more person at this time. It should be noted that as other people died in the battle, the black-armored monks felt more and more powerless in dealing with the shell monsters, which was very dangerous.

Kong Fang glanced at the black-armored monks and the others, "I am not interested in your affairs." He replied with a voice transmission, and then prepared to rush to the bottom of the lake. The dark bamboo vine had already dived to a very deep place, and Kong Fang had to follow it to see if the dark bamboo vine seeds were in danger.

Seeing that Kong Fang was actually going to the bottom of the lake, the eyes of the black-armored monks and others suddenly turned cold. In their eyes, Kong Fang's actions seemed to be Kong Fang wanting to take the opportunity to go to the bottom of the lake to find the storage ring.

"Retreat, let's retreat!" The black-armored monk roared angrily, "Just as we said before, we retreat and let him face the monster alone. The storage ring belongs to everyone. As long as the monster is not dead, no one can take the opportunity to snatch it!"

The black-armored monk's voice was full of coldness, and his words not only rang in the minds of other monks, but also in Kong Fang's. The black-armored monk was warning Kong Fang, but Kong Fang had no reaction at all. Kong Fang just wanted to get to the bottom of the lake as soon as possible and stare at the seed that made him worry.

The other monks were also very angry, and they quickly retreated and stopped attacking the shell monster. The shell monster took the opportunity to pierce a slower-running late-stage Spiritual Transformation Realm monk with one of its huge arthropod legs and swallowed the monk into its stomach. The shell monster's small eyes full of murderous light quickly swept towards the others.

Finding that the others had already hidden far away, the Shell Monster suddenly turned around and looked at Kong Fang who was flying to the bottom of the lake. The Shell Monster suddenly roared and quickly chased after Kong Fang.

The bottom of the lake is its territory, how can it let a human enter?

When the black-armored monk and others saw this, they couldn't help but reveal a grim smile on their faces.

"If you don't obey us, then prepare to die." The black-armored monk sneered.

"You deserve to die if you want to keep the storage ring for yourself."

The others looked at Kong Fang as if he were a dead person. (To be continued...)
