Chapter 2068: Danger 3
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The barrier that had been set up by the Supreme Sect had a crucial purpose – to ensure the safety of the examination partic.i.p.ants within a designated area of the spiritually rich mountains. The Supreme Sect likely implemented this barrier to prevent the disciples from wandering too far into the perilous mountains, where they might encounter high-level beasts that could pose fatal threats.
The unexpected twist, however, was that the Beastmaster Sect never antic.i.p.ated that this same barrier would prevent them from escaping the terrifying demon crocodile in front of them. The disciples had no clue about the challenges they would face next.
But…
This demon crocodile possessed an extraordinary level of cultivation within the barrier, with no other demonic beasts in its vicinity. It appeared that the demon crocodile had devoured all the other beasts, directly a.s.similating their cultivation to enhance its own.
Gu Chaoyan soon formed a rough idea of what was going on.
But…
But it was too late.
Her white jade sword was very st.u.r.dy, and she was not injured by the demon crocodile. But with her cultivation level, she was not strong enough to deal with demon crocodile.
That was the suppression of cultivation.
There was no way to hide.
As she glanced at the other disciples partic.i.p.ating in the examination, she noticed that they had witnessed her attempting to stall the demon crocodile. However, instead of aiding her, they chose to run away, showing no intention of coming to her rescue. They sought refuge by hiding, not willing to risk facing the terrifying creature.
Including the people Gu Chaoyan saved just now.
They had been so frightened by this demon crocodile that they did not want to come here any more.
The demon crocodile had eaten several people. If they went there, they would be eaten too.
Only Yan Wuji rushed forward, holding the sword given to him by Gu Chaoyan.
Yan Zhengchu hesitated for a while and went forward too.
With their help, Gu Chaoyan let out a sigh of relief, wondering if there was any other way to kill this demon crocodile.
She took out a lot of poison from the s.p.a.ce and sprinkled it directly into the mouth and body of the demon crocodile.
But the poison did not seem to work on demon crocodile. It was still up high in spirit.
Gu Chaoyan got anxious.
Looking at the sky above the swamp, the Elders of the Supreme Sect were not here yet.
The Information Pill had been crushed, but the Elders had not yet received the news.
What was going on here?
Gu Chaoyan was very worried.
And at this moment…
Yan Wuji was slightly injured.
Gu Chaoyan continued to stand in front of Yan Wuji, waving the sword in her hands and shouting. “Are you going to stand by and do nothing? Come and help me!”
“We are weaker than it, but we have more people, and we can subdue it, and make sure the beast is pressed down.”
“If you continue to stand by and do nothing, we will not make it, and you will still be in danger. Split your forces and let demon crocodile eat you up!” Gu Chaoyan snapped angrily.
Many people started to think about what she said.
Gu Chaoyan was right.
Trapped within the barrier, they had already crushed the items in their hands to seek help, yet the Elder of the Supreme Sect had not arrived yet. The absence of aid left them facing the grim reality that they might be devoured one by one by the demon crocodile.
However, amidst the perilous situation, a glimmer of hope emerged..
