Chapter 240: Huo Li Ruo Shows His Might

Huo Li Ruo was protected by ice-blue armour and wanted to go forward to get the Glazed Herb.

Yu Qing Qian furrowed her brows slightly and stopped him from stepping forward, “Don’t go there yet, there’s something at the bottom of that lake that’s very dangerous.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the lake suddenly spurted out a jet of water, and a pure ice-blue serpent with a rhinoceros’s horn on its head emerged from the water and stared at them coldly.

The large serpent exuded a strong and cold pressure, sweeping over the surroundings.

“A Nine-leaf Spirit General cultivation base magical beast.” Mu’rong Qing said with an ugly expression.

Except for Yu Qing Qian and Huo Li Ruo, everyone else’s expressions changed. A Nine-leaf Spirit General level magical beast was very difficult to deal with. The magical beasts they had encountered before were all those at Five-leaf Spirit General cultivation base or below.

Huo Li Ruo narrowed his eyes, and his devilishly handsome face was filled with fighting spirit. He looked sideways at Yu Qing Qian and said: “I’ll go and compete with him.”

Yu Qing Qian felt Huo Li Ruo’s fighting spirit and nodded: “Be careful, I’ll act if there’s any danger.”

“Sure!” Huo Li Ruo chuckled, and with a longsword condensed from ice spiritual force in his hand, he immediately flew forward and rushed ahead.

This glacier was the territory of the large serpent, and it became angry when it saw the intruders.

With a sweep of its tail, it attacked Huo Li Ruo, but Huo Li Ruo easily dodged it.

Huo Li Ruo’s cultivation base was at Seven-leaf Spirit Warrior, which was two levels lower than Yu Qing Qian, however, as a member of the royal family, he naturally had the capital to skip-stage battle.

Previously, the entire team was led by Yu Qing Qian, so Huo Li Ruo’s performance seemed relatively dull. When he really showed his strength, no one would underestimate him.

Huo Li Ruo collided with the Nine-leaf Spirit General giant serpent countless times, and constantly bombarded it with icicles and ice arrows.

The giant serpent was also of the ice attribute and could mobilise water droplets in the lake to attack Huo Li Ruo, trying to surround him.

Due to the huge gap in cultivation base, Huo Li Ruo was gradually put in a disadvantageous position.

Yu Qing Qian held the bow and arrow, pointing it at the giant serpent, but didn’t shoot it, continuing to watch the battle.

“Boss, Huo Li Ruo seems to be unable to withstand it, should we go up?” Qi Rui asked worriedly, looking at Huo Li Ruo who was knocked away by the tail of the giant serpent.

The others were also ready to fight whenever, and none of them were timid.

Yu Qing Qian shook her head: “No need for now, Huo Li Ruo should be able to kill the opponent.”

Hearing Yu Qing Qian’s words, everyone present was stunned. Huo Li Ruo was about to lose, how could she say that he could kill the opponent?

However, the whole team now had a kind of blind trust in Yu Qing Qian, so they stared at Huo Li Ruo and the giant serpent in battle.

The battle continued. Huo Li Ruo crawled up from the ground after being knocked down, with a stronger fighting spirit in his eyes.

“Very good.” Huo Li Ruo stood up, his ice-blue armour faded away, and a golden plant appeared behind him, carrying a pressure that made countless plant want to surrender.

The golden plant turned into armour and wrapped around Huo Li Ruo, and a golden trident appeared in his hand.

Right now, Huo Li Ruo’s aura continued to grow stronger, rising from Seven-leaf Spirit Warrior and finally stopping when he arrived at the aura of a Spirit General cultivation base.

Then, he raised his trident and shot it towards the weak point of the giant serpent. The force was astonishing, startling the giant serpent that was about to devour him.

The giant serpent felt danger approaching and became furious. The scales on its body mobilised to protect its weak point and it faced Huo Li Ruo’s blow head on.

Then only a [CRACK!] was heard.

Everyone saw the golden trident shining like the sun, directly penetrating the weak point of the giant serpent, then the scales in that position seven inches beneath the serpent’s head broke inch by inch.

The giant serpent suddenly fell into the lake, and soon its aura gradually weakened, then disappeared.
