Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

Chapter 1904 - 1905: Time Is Running Out

Ling Zhenfei was still quite delighted; at least recovering the Northern Spiritual Energy didn't waste too much time outside.

The time outside is precious, with only about a month left—truly so tight.

After restoring his strength, Ling Zhenfei bid farewell to the Peach Blossom Fairy and prepared to leave.

When he arrived at the riverbank, Ling Zhenfei hesitated somewhat. Now, the river had become a problem he couldn't afford to ignore.

The monsters in the river were getting stronger, and last time he had even discovered a flood dragon within its depths. Although there wasn't a direct confrontation, who knows what will happen this time?

Ling Zhenfei mused by the riverbank for quite a while before suddenly deciding to probe the waters. With Sky Piercing Finger in hand, he gathered Northern Spiritual Energy and thrust towards the water.

The power of Sky Piercing Finger was immense; the moment he thrust, it created a large hole in the water's surface.

The monsters beneath were caught unprepared, hit suddenly, and those with low cultivation had a hole punctured in them by Sky Piercing Finger.

Even the creatures with tough skin and flesh, when struck by Ling Zhenfei's Sky Piercing Finger, would surely suffer broken bones and torn muscles.

The entire water surface started to churn violently, like it had exploded, tossing ceaselessly.

Ling Zhenfei was stunned, realizing that if he were on the river now, he wouldn't know how many monster attacks he would face.

Ling Zhenfei, with shock in his heart, launched another Sky Piercing Finger towards the place where the water roiled most fiercely.

With both hands moving incessantly, left and right exerting power, Sky Piercing Finger seemed to need no Northern Spiritual Energy as it thrust into the water.

Previously, when Ling Zhenfei attempted to cross the river, the monsters beneath would attack him like mad.

Now, as he attacked from the bank, at least he had reversed that disadvantage.

But this was just Ling Zhenfei acting childishly; even killing a few monsters didn't mean he could kill all the river's creatures—crossing the river was still not easy.

After venting for a time on the riverbank, using up quite a bit of his Northern Spiritual Energy, the entire surface was stained red, indicating he had indeed killed many monsters.

Ling Zhenfei thought to himself; he still needed to cross the river. While he had killed quite a few monsters, he surely had angered them, leaving him unsure of what would happen next.

The situation was akin to a pre-battle bombardment before soldiers move in, not knowing the bombardment's effectiveness until then.

Ling Zhenfei boosted his Northern Spiritual Energy, letting it rise underfoot, lifting himself high, then soared over the river toward the opposite bank.

The water below had turned blood red as Ling Zhenfei reached mid-river, unsure if someone was directing the river's depths.

Suddenly, a volley of water arrows of varying sizes shot upwards towards Ling Zhenfei.

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback: these water arrows were released by fish beneath, and their power was indeed formidable.

Thinking this, Ling Zhenfei stomped down on the Northern Spiritual Energy, lifting his body several meters higher to minimize the water arrows' effect while his hands surged with Northern Spiritual Energy and punched down at the arrows beneath.

Boom!

The powerful impact scattered the water arrows, though Ling Zhenfei's momentum slowed.

Then, tentacles emerged from the water like columns, with their sole target being Ling Zhenfei.

These tentacles all lunged towards Ling Zhenfei.

Ling Zhenfei knew these tentacles were difficult to handle, having suffered many setbacks due to them in the past.

Thinking this, his Tang sword appeared, and as the tentacles approached, his sword unsheathed.

The Northern Spiritual Energy on the sword extended dozens of meters, instantly severing several tentacles while others wrapped around him.

Two tentacles quickly coiled around Ling Zhenfei's legs.

Ling Zhenfei immediately felt a strong force pulling his body towards the water.

With such speed, Ling Zhenfei was about to fall into the water and he knew what falling in would mean.

The monsters under the water were terrifying, lacking only in long-range attack methods; if submerged, it would be their domain. So, under no circumstances could he enter the water.

Panicked inside but steady in his hand, the Tang sword severed the tentacles in an instant.

But by this time Ling Zhenfei was already very low above the water; several large black fish leapt from the water with gaping mouths to bite him.

Ling Zhenfei was alarmed: these watery creatures were growing stronger, even employing tactical strategies.

The size of the black fish was enormous, making swallowing Ling Zhenfei easy.

But there was no way Ling Zhenfei would be so easily consumed.

Kicking down hard on Northern Spiritual Energy, his body rose several meters. With Heaven-Splitting Ten Fists, he punched towards one of the large black fish.

Using Northern Spiritual Energy's impact, Ling Zhenfei swiftly evaded the large black fish's attack.

At this point, Ling Zhenfei suddenly felt a cold wind blowing.

He abruptly spotted a black tail whipping towards him.

Who knows which creature possessed the tail—it moved incredibly fast.

Having escaped the large black fish's grasp, Ling Zhenfei found dodging quite difficult.

In a hurry, he could only use Northern Spiritual Energy to block the incoming tail.

Bang!

Ling Zhenfei was struck by the tail; despite obstructing it with Northern Spiritual Energy, he was sent flying.

Ling Zhenfei was stunned; upon contact with the tail, he felt its immense power.

No time to think, as several tentacles rushed at Ling Zhenfei again, now from above, aiming to knock him into the water.

Ling Zhenfei understood these aquatic monsters were organized, not fighting blindly and individually.

Their intended goal was to submerge Ling Zhenfei or force him near the water.

Realizing their aim indicated something terrifying lay beneath the surface.

Uncertain of what horrors lay beneath the water, Ling Zhenfei was truly clueless.

At least unclear for now, knowing only about the previous underwater encounter.

With under-water horrors growing stronger, Ling Zhenfei was unsure of their full extent, ensuring he wouldn't fall in now.

Ling Zhenfei recalled the flood dragon seen before and the tail; who knew what creature owned it?

His Tang sword targeting the large black fish, he slashed at it. The fish's strength was indeed formidable.

Though Ling Zhenfei's Tang sword was quite powerful, striking the fish was like igniting sparks.
