After traveling to the world of cultivation, I rely on the game system to survive

This is a vast and boundless lake. The water flows slowly and silently, the bottom is clear and the surface is covered with fragmented sunlight.

Xiao Huaifeng was arranging camping arrangements for other disciples.

Xia Chen smiled and said, "You can rest early today."

Pei Nian said expressionlessly, "How about making a bet? We still have to kill the monster today?"

Xia Chen shouted in disbelief, "I don't believe it! Xiaoyi, when did you start learning divination?"

The senior brothers and sisters pricked up their ears and stopped what they were doing, wanting to hear why this junior sister was so sure that they would kill the monster today.

Pei Nianyi raised an eyebrow, pointed at the tranquil lake, and said solemnly, "Logically speaking, where there is water there must be many monsters. But think about it, were there any monsters on the road when we were collecting herbs just now?"

She paused, then continued, "Even if we're lucky and don't encounter any monsters, isn't there even a trace of them along this path? It's a road completely untraveled by humans or beasts."

"Take a look at the surroundings. Don't you find any problems?" She asked quickly, pointing around the lake.

Everyone looked around in the direction she pointed. The grass was still, the wind was still, and even the insects, birds, and animals that were so noisy during the day were silent.

Xiao Huaifeng's expression changed slightly, and he said in a serious tone: "Huai Yan, did you really not see any traces of monsters along the way?"

Chu Huaiyan nodded affirmatively: "It is just as Junior Sister Pei said. There must be a very powerful monster or demon beast occupying the water source nearby. Other monsters dare not set foot here."

"But...we have been here for several hours and haven't found anything unusual, nor have we been attacked." Junior Brother Li said hesitantly.

Pei Nianyi was silent for a moment, then pointed his mouth towards the lake: "Maybe it's because the water masks the decaying smell of the monster. We'll know if we try it."

In order to verify Pei Nianyi's idea, everyone went to other places to find a lone monster, and then brought its body back to the lake.

Chu Huaiyan personally carried the body of the monster and flew up on his sword. When he reached the center of the lake, he threw the body into the water.

Everyone on the shore stared at the lake with wide eyes.

As expected, the body of the monster was still in mid-air, and the water surface, which was as calm as a mirror just now, was suddenly broken. A large black shadow emerged from the bottom of the water, and several meters high water columns rose at the same time.

In an instant, the body of the monster in the air turned into a pile of bones, the water column and the black shadow disappeared, the water surface returned to calm, and there was no trace of these things anymore, as if they had never appeared.

Only the white bones floating on the lake prove their existence.

Although obscured by the water column, everyone could still see their appearance clearly. They were small rays with six fins and two rows of sharp teeth in their mouths.

"It's a six-finned ray!" Jiang Nianrou exclaimed.

"No wonder no monster dared to drink the water." Su Huaining blinked and said, "There were at least hundreds of six-finned rays in that area just now."

"What a pity, there should be a lot of medicinal herbs in the water." Su Huaining looked regretful.

If they had gone to the lake to drink water without any precautions, they would probably have died on the spot.

Chu Huaiyan frowned and said, "These fish only pop up once, snatch their prey, and then dive back to the bottom of the water. They're very cautious."

Pei Nianyi waved his hand and said, "This is still a small matter. Did any of the senior brothers and sisters see clearly just now whether this fish was demonized by evil spirits?"

Everyone shook their heads. Everything happened too fast and no one could see it clearly.

For a moment, everyone's face was solemn, not knowing whether they should continue to choose to camp here.

Xia Chen, however, looked delighted, and said with great joy, "If we get rid of the six-finned rays in this lake, can't we set up camp here? And we can also get a lot of generous points. Why not do it?"

Xiao Huaifeng quickly interrupted him: "They won't come out easily, and it's not easy to kill them."

There was chaos outside the venue at this time.

"Why is the Sword Sect team's light screen completely dark?"

"Is there something wrong with the photo stone?"

"Impossible! This was made by Master Feng Li for the Qingyun Conference. The quality is absolutely guaranteed."

"Then tell me why there is nothing on the Sword Sect's light screen."

Elder Leling of the Northern Wasteland let out a soft "Huh?" and smiled as he looked at True Lord Tiebi. "This is the first time I've seen such a situation. What are your thoughts on this?"

Master Tiebi laughed heartily and said, "It's indeed a first, but there's no need to worry. This is still just outside the Duskwood. I'm sure they'll be fine." He paused, raised his hand, and coughed twice. "After the meeting, I'll ask them in detail about the situation there."

Elder Mingyou sneered: "Young man, it's better to suffer some setbacks."

He glanced at the light screen of the Medicine Sect team with a little pride. At the moment when the screen of the Sword Sect team had problems, Yue Qifeng had already commanded the disciples of the Medicine Sect to kill several Jindan-stage monsters, and the points were rising rapidly.

Elder Dao Run frowned and said hesitantly, "I've never heard of an area in the Duskwood that's shielded from outsiders. And now it's suddenly appeared. Could there be some conspiracy?"

In the Twilight Forest.

The disciples of the Sword Sect were still discussing whether to kill the group of six-finned rays that had occupied this place.

Several senior brothers flew over the lake on their swords, as if observing something. Most of the disciples were unwilling to miss this group of six-finned rays.

Pei Nianyi also stood above the lake on his sword, observing the size and depth of the lake.

She took out a meat pie from the storage ring, tied it to one end of the rope, and commanded Xuan Mo to fly higher.

When she felt the height was right, she lowered the meat pie tied with a rope.

There was a strange noise underwater, and then a group of six-finned rays jumped out of the water, trying to bite the meat pie that exuded an enticing aroma.

One of the six-finned rays, which was completely black, jumped the highest. It opened its mouth wide and jumped straight towards the meat pie, with its fangs flashing coldly.

Pei Nianyi finally saw clearly at this time that it was a group of demonized six-finned rays.

She flew her sword upwards quickly, avoiding the six-finned ray with its big mouth.

In the blink of an eye, several sword energies flew in with unstoppable force and precision, chopping off the head of the unfortunate demonized six-finned ray.

"Wow!"

The fish head and body fell into the lake, splashing two huge splashes of water.

The demonized six-finned rays in the lake quickly devoured the dead fish.

"I have a solution!" Pei Nian snapped his fingers and blew a whistle: "Come on, let's get ready."

The girl flew down from mid-air, her brows relaxed, and she looked so confident that it was impossible to look away.
