CapĂtulo 1968: Chapter 1010: Holy Heart Fruit Tree (Part 2)
Itâs important to remember, Lin Tianmingâs character has always been calm and composed, rarely showing such caution.
But just now, Lin Tianmingâs expression suddenly became complex, enough to indicate the power of that demonic beast.
If it werenât the case, Lin Tianming would probably have taken action long ago.
Thinking about this, Lin Tianyun seriously looked at Lin Tianming before turning his gaze to the distance.
At this moment, Lin Tianming also withdrew his gaze from afar and then placed it on Lin Tianyun and Qin Xi.
Immediately afterward, Lin Tianming opened his mouth and said: âTianyun, Xiâer, that demonic beast is coming soon!â
âAnd on that Holy Heart Fruit Tree, there are a few fruits left.â
âGiven this, we do not have any reason to let them go!â
âSo next, we should prepare to take action!â
After saying this, Lin Tianming first patted his waist, and with a flash of light, the Tiangang Sword had already appeared in his hand.
And hearing Lin Tianmingâs words, and seeing that he was ready to attack, both Qin Xi and Lin Tianyun nodded at the same time, and immediately summoned their magical treasure weapons.
Soon, all three had their magical treasures in hand, their expressions becoming serious, as if a formidable enemy was about to arrive.
Indeed, at this moment, there was a powerful demonic beast moving rapidly underwater from the distant river valley, heading directly towards Lin Tianmingâs location.
With Lin Tianmingâs perception, he clearly detected a demonic beast rapidly approaching from the bottom of the big river in the valley.
This demonic beast originally hid underwater, and initially, its aura was rather restrained, making it impossible to detect any signs without careful sensing, let alone its trajectory.
However, Lin Tianmingâs perception was astounding, coupled with his consistently cautious personality, so as soon as they appeared here, he immediately sensed something was amiss.
Thus, as long as Lin Tianming thoroughly investigated, he could discover the traces of that demonic beast.
Including the Holy Heart Fruit Tree, it naturally couldnât escape his perception.
And now, as the demonic beast at the river bottom drew closer, Lin Tianmingâs perception became even more pronounced.
Not only him, but Qin Xi and Lin Tianyun, who had not noticed any movement until now, also clearly sensed it at this moment.
So next, both of them prepared to make their move.
Just waiting for Lin Tianmingâs command, they could take action.
In this manner, Lin Tianming and the other two hovered in mid-air, each holding magical treasures that shone with different lights, ready to face the coming threat.
Time quietly passed, and in a few breaths, it seemed to have flown by.
Then, with a splash from the riverâs center, soon a gigantic demonic beast was seen poking its head directly out of the water.
At that moment, looking around, the demonic beastâs head was three zhang wide, covered in gray-brown scales that were ruggedly shaped, looking as if they emitted glowing arcs.
And as more of the demonic beastâs body emerged, Lin Tianming and the other two recognized the creatureâs specific origins.
âMoluo Crocodile!â
âItâs even a Fourth Order Moluo Crocodile!â
At this time, Lin Tianyun exclaimed in surprise at the sight of the huge crocodile in front of them.
At the next moment, Qin Xi beside him couldnât help but mutter: âJudging by this Moluo Crocodileâs aura, it is incredibly powerful, clearly a mighty demonic beast that has been at the Fourth Order for many years.â
Hearing these words, Lin Tianming nodded slightly, then explained briefly.
âThis Moluo Crocodileâs strength is impressive, indicating it has been at this level for quite some time, and its actual power is likely close to matching a superpower in the Nascent Soul Middle Stage!â
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianyun and Qin Xiâs expressions immediately became much more serious.
In their hearts, they thought it was no wonder Lin Tianming was so stern and cautious earlier; indeed, the opponent they encountered was quite strong, essentially the strongest encounter facing them since entering the Ancient Demon Secret Realm.
In such circumstances, Lin Tianming sternly warned them, which was entirely expected.
Understanding this, Lin Tianyun and Qin Xiâs faces were grave, and they were mentally on high alert.
As for Lin Tianming, his expression remained calm, revealing he had anticipated this moment.
Currently, the Moluo Crocodileâs voluntary emergence was indeed within his expectations.
Moreover, the demonic beast hidden in the dark voluntarily appearing is, in a way, a good thing.
Otherwise, if the Moluo Crocodile continued to hide and waited for an opportune moment to strike, it would be the most troublesome and complicated situation.
Fortunately, even though Moluo Crocodiles are demonic beasts, their spirit wisdom is not low, so they did not immediately act in the first instance, evidently considering the few human cultivators before them.
Knowing this, Lin Tianming calmly observed the Moluo Crocodile.
At the same time, he pondered the countermeasures in his mind.
And simultaneously, the Moluo Crocodile also peeked its head out, stabilizing its body, floating on the waterâs surface in the riverâs center, eyes sharply watching the three.
After a long while, seeing that Lin Tianming and the others did not speak or voluntarily withdraw from this area, it seemed to provoke this powerful demonic beast.
Therefore, at a certain moment, the Moluo Crocodile was the first to speak, breaking the silence.
âLittle ones, do you dare trespass in the domain of this esteemed one, with no other intention than to covet that Holy Heart Fruit Tree?â
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming was silent for a moment before smiling and responding.
âSenior, to be honest, we juniors do have some thoughts about that Holy Heart Fruit Tree.â
After speaking, Lin Tianming kept a close eye on the Moluo Crocodile, seemingly eager for the other partyâs reply.
Actually, Lin Tianming indeed wanted to see what actions the Moluo Crocodile would take.
After all, in case the Moluo Crocodile chooses to withdraw voluntarily, offering some benefits to them, it could avoid an unnecessary dispute.
However, Lin Tianming underestimated the Moluo Crocodile and underestimated the beastâs fiery temperament.
Thus, as Lin Tianming stared intsently at the opponent, the Moluo Crocodile suddenly sneered.
âHumph!â
âLittle ones, just with your limited strength, you dare have designs on this esteemed oneâs Holy Heart Fruit Tree? You are inviting your own demise!â
Once those words faded, the Moluo Crocodile evidently did not intend to waste any more words or time.
Hence, in an instant, the Moluo Crocodile suddenly swished its tail, aiming to smash towards Lin Tianming and the others.
Instantly, the Moluo Crocodileâs tail came closer, drawing nearer to Lin Tianming and the othersâ position.
And the Moluo Crocodileâs tail was enormous, stretching over twenty zhang long. As it swished, even the surrounding air was compressed and crushed, causing a series of crackling noises.
At the same time, a powerful wave spread out, forming a blast that rushed over, immediately rustling the Daoist robes of Lin Tianming and the others.
Now, seeing the Moluo Crocodile initiate the attack, having only said a single threatening sentence and having no intention to negotiate, it was clear it didnât take Lin Tianming and the others seriously.
With this thought, and witnessing the Moluo Crocodileâs fierce attack arriving, even Lin Tianming, usually mild-tempered, felt somewhat angered.
So, in the next moment, Lin Tianming also coldly snorted.
âHumph!â
âVictory is yet undetermined, Senior is so confident, perhaps you think we are as soft and pliable as mud?â
The words had just left his mouth when Lin Tianming didnât forget to speak to Qin Xi and Lin Tianyun: âAttack!â
After saying this, Lin Tianming first stepped forward, simultaneously channeling his cultivation technique at full force.
Soon afterward, he formed a complex hand gesture with his Law Decree, muttering several spell incantations in his mouth.
Soon, under Lin Tianmingâs driving force, the Tiangang Ninth Sword Technique Divine Power had formed.
In an instant, the Tiangang Sword transformed into a silvery-white dragon, carrying the terrifying power of nine layers of sword qi, charging straight towards the Moluo Crocodile before them.
