The Ancient Strengthening Technique

AST 2022 - Nine Continents Mountain, The Giant Water Monster Was Stuffed

Qing Shui was just saying things on a whim. As that idea flashed through his mind, he smelled something, like a fragrance. Although they were underwater, they could not feel the water barrier anymore with their current strength. Yet, with the water essence, their battle strength would be greatly reduced.

It was not as easy to move underwater.

Then, Qing Shui felt a sudden softness on his lips.

Qing Shui was shocked. Surprisingly, Beiming Xue leaned over and kissed his lips on her own. However, she did not know how to kiss, so she only blocked his lips.

Qing Shui was absorbed in the impact for a while before he regained awareness. Things were screwed now; he never expected this outcome. Based on Beiming Xue's personality, she would not compromise even if she died. Without her love, it was definitely impossible to kiss her. Yet, it happened now.

He wanted to evade, but he knew that it would embarrass Beiming Xue and might even drive her out of the way. She was a proud woman; she probably struggled for a long time before doing that. Perhaps, it was mainly because the state of life and death.

Qing Shui sucked her lip gently and kissed her slowly. Her fresh fragrance triggered Qing Shui's senses. His tongue opened up Beiming Xue's tightly closed teeth and clung onto her smooth, sweet tongue, enjoying her tasty saliva.

Beiming Xue closed her eyes. Her entire body was trembling, her mind was blank, and her heart was thumping rapidly. She was unsure if she liked this feeling—perhaps; she was rather confused. As she came back to her senses, she already felt Qing Shui's tongue invading her mouth.

She tried to reciprocate and realized that she was not against it. She actually kind of liked this feeling. This made her slightly relieved and diminished her fear of death.

Beiming Xue nearly lost her breath at some point; only then did she pull away and lower her head. She dared not to look at Qing Shui.

"We're going to die, this is my reward for you. You didn't have to die with me," Beiming Xue blushed. At this moment, she looked extraordinarily stunning.

Qing Shui smiled and looked at this beautiful lady, "If we happen to avoid dying, isn't it a great loss for you?"

"I'm not losing anything. I don't regret it in that case, it would be a luxury to survive," Beiming Xue said with a smile.

Snap!

They landed at the bottom of the lake. There was not much water here; many things in the surroundings were visible. The previous noise came as the tentacle touched the ground. There were so many tentacles; Qing Shui followed them and looked at the most central position.

The place was spacious; it should be the nest of the big guy here. There were a lot of skeletons. Thus, it was quite messy, full of a bloody and rotten smell.

"Hmm, there's a formation here. A Trap Formation?"

Qing Shui observed the place and noticed that it was contained. Why would a monstrous creature with tentacles get trapped here? How long had it been here? Was it an underwater creature? terrestrial? or a flying demonic beast? Qing Shui was even more curious now.

The tentacle retreated. Qing Shui was fully armed. Once he approached the opponent's main body, Qing Shui prepared to attack.

Qing Shui spotted the big guy; it looked like a clam monster. Yet, Qing Shui had no idea what it actually was. It was probably an underwater creature. Its main body was not very big, it was around 50 meters large. It had no legs, a pair of dark eyes, countless tentacles, and was elliptical in shape.

Besides the eyes, the giant mouth was its most prominent feature. It was about one-third of its body, in exaggeration. The mouth was like a bloody cave entrance; it literally looked like Hell.

The tentacle was difficult to deal with and Qing Shui could not find any effective way against it. Perhaps, his Primordial Flames could handle it, but it was hard to tell. However, one thing was certain: the big guy must be a lot stronger than Qing Shui.

As they were about to enter the giant mouth, Qing Shui became alert and called out the Nine Continents Mountain.

At the very moment before falling into the huge mouth, Qing Shui called out the Nine Continents Mountain.

The consciousness was activated, the Nine Continents Mountain entered the mouth of the huge creature. On top of that, Qing Shui enlarged the Nine Continents Mountain instantly.

The Nine Continents Mountain could reach a hundred meters easily, while this monster was only fifty meters tall…

This trick came to mind as Qing Shui saw the main body of the huge monster, especially when he saw the large mouth. It was also the most effective way. He was sure that he could definitely burst the big guy with the Nine Continents Mountain.

Squeak…

The sharp roar, plus dark, and cold eyes gave people a chill. The tentacles came attacking insanely, entangling Qing Shui and Beiming Xue on a deadly grip. However, Qing Shui waved at this moment. The Primordial Flames burnt the surroundings rapidly and separated the tentacle from the Dragon Slaying Beast.

The raging Dragon Slaying Beast munched on the tentacle crazily and broke the tentacle on Qing Shui and Beiming Xue. At the same time, Qing Shui flapped his Golden Battle Halberd vigorously.

At that moment, the Nine Continents Mountain already expanded the big monster's body. Blood spurted out from its body and it could not bother with Qing Shui anymore.

Yet, Qing Shui did not plan to let this big guy go. It was really terrifying; it had to be killed.

Snap!

Burst.

Qing Shui was extremely excited. Although it seemed easy to kill this unknown, enormous demonic beast, Qing Shui knew how hazardous this creature could be. It would be difficult to escape from the creature, if the Nine Continents Mountain was not delivered into its mouth.

It would not be effective if the huge monster did not have such a large mouth. Even though the Nine Continents Mountain could change in size, if the opponent was not gluttonous, that trick would never work.

Beiming Xue took some time to come back to realization. She stared at Qing Shui, "We don't have to die anymore."

"Mm!" Qing Shui smiled.

Beiming Xue had a confused feeling; it was a mixture of surprise and melancholy. She stared at Qing Shui blankly. She kissed this man, and he kissed her back too. Now that they were not going to die, what was next?

"Let's see if there is anything here. When we get out later, Xixuan would still be up there. Don't let her worry about us," Qing Shui knew her thought, but he could not console her in this matter. Beiming Xue's action made Qing Shui perplexed too.

Beiming Xue nodded. Qing Shui collected the huge demonic beast's Origin Essence Pill, Core, Heart, and others. This demonic beast owned a lot of good stuff. Therefore, Qing Shui kept them in the Realm of Violet Jade Immortal.

Next, he looked around and saw a large stone chamber here. There was plenty of stuff, but they were no good for his standard. Qing Shui was slightly disappointed, but it was rewarding enough to kill this big guy.

Qing Shui broke the formation of this place; water flooded the compound immediately and flushed everything away.

As Qing Shui and Beiming Xue reached the water surface, Yu Xixuan and Little Rin were still standing in a distant place; they did not leave. At once, they rushed over as they saw Qing Shui and Beiming Xue.

The anxiety on Yu Xixuan's face went away. Still, she asked caringly, "How are you?"

"It's alright, the huge water monster is dead. Let's go!" Qing Shui was not in the mood to go further after experiencing this water monster. He just wanted to go back.

Beiming Xue was back to normal and talked to Yu Xixuan. Three of them headed back.
