Li LiBo stood at the stern rowing, while Chen Jiechang held a torch for illumination, and the sound of water occasionally echoed across the river.

A Liang stared at the dark water, struggling to overcome her fear, trying to find her way, and moving closer to where she had been attacked.

Liang Qu stood at the bow of the boat, his Subduing Waves Spear pointing diagonally downwards, the Black Gold blade half submerged in the water, creating a ripple.

The Subduing Waves Spear is full of spirituality, and its creation was done using the user's own blood, demonstrating a deep connection between them.

Liang Qu can project its aquatic perception through Fubo without needing to come into contact with water.

While it may appear to be patrolling only on the surface, it actually has complete control over the location nearly 200 meters underwater.

"It capsized your small boat, did it do anything else?"

A Liang looked away from the water, swallowed, and shook his head.

"Did you get a good look at what that water monster looks like?"

"No, I only saw... I saw it was black... dark green, with scales..."

I saw Liang Qu at the A Liang River God Sacrifice, but I was just blending in with the crowd and didn't really notice it.

Now that we're on the same boat, I feel an invisible pressure enveloping me, making me so nervous that I can't speak.

Liang Qu nodded, assuming he was frightened.

When ordinary people encounter Spirit Monster, the water is scalding hot, and they are too busy running for their lives to even look back.

"A dark green Spirit Monster is quite rare."

In Liang Qu's memory, only cold-blooded creatures were dark green and scaly. Could it be a snake or lizard Spirit Monster? Besides, it only capsized the boat and didn't do anything else.

It could be a clever Spirit Monster that knows the power of humans and simply drives them out of its territory.

Either they create a stunning aftermath while chasing their prey, just like when Liang Qu encountered Toad hunting Fire Bird.

As the water flowed downstream, a massive shadow swam by, revealing only a small portion of its gray tail fin.

A Liang jumped up suddenly, pointing frantically at the water. "There... there is..."

Chen Jiechang pressed down on A Liang's shoulder and pushed him back into his seat. "It's River Dolphin, Water Bro's Water Beast."

Chen Jiechang and Li LiBo were doing business at the River Conservancy Office, so they were used to seeing such things and immediately recognized the creature underwater as River Dolphin.

Given Liang Qu's identity, it is self-evident who its owner is.

A Liang's face flushed, and she couldn't help but scratch her cheek.

Have we arrived?

"Not here, about half a mile ahead."

Under A Liang's command, the boat rowed for several miles and quickly arrived at the point of distress.

"It's pretty much this place. My dad and I encountered the water monster here. We capsized one boat and had to rely on another boat to escape."

A Liang looked distressed.

Fishing boats are a fisherman's lifeblood; even a small sampan costs a lot of money.

The other boat didn't capsize, but many of its side planks were cracked, and water would leak in if it tilted even slightly, so it needed to be repaired.

Liang Qu turned around and said, "You all stay on the boat, I'll go into the water and take a look."

"Water Bro, be careful."

"Um."

Liang Qu, carrying Fubo, leaped into the water.

The dark water reflected the orange firelight, making it appear even more profound.

Chen Jiechang and Li LiBo gazed at the white foam being swept into the vortex, their faces showing emotion.

The three entered the Martial Arts School at almost the same time, but now they are worlds apart.

They are still just small- First Level Martial Artist, relying on their skilled Stance Training to lend a hand at the Martial Arts School.

Then look at Liang Qu, the Whale Killer Whale Gang, the Water Demon Slayer, and the Bandits...

As to just how strong they were, even asking Hu Qi and Xiang ChangSong at the Martial Arts School didn't yield a clear answer; all they heard was that they were even more powerful.

Even more impressive! In their eyes, Hu Qi and Xiang ChangSong were extraordinary masters, figures they could only look up to with awe.

But Liang Qu, who started learning martial arts at the same time as them, actually surpassed the mountain in their hearts!

It's already so high that I don't know how high it is anymore.

The underwater world was calm and still, yet turbulent and dark.

Liang Qu lit up his Golden Eye and expanded his senses, only to find two schools of fish and a few floating water plants, but no sunken fishing boats at all.

He stood still for a moment.

Fat Catfish, Cannot Move, Fist, Round Head, Scarhead, and a host of River Dolphin arrived one after another.

Except for the Mirage Worm, the Little River Porpoise, and some of the River Dolphin that help with fishing, all of its crew members were present.

At Liang Qu's command, the Water Beast scattered.

Half an hour later, the Round Head was the first to make a discovery.

Liang Qu Water Leap and appeared beside Round Head.

The Round Head- headed creature swam around in the water, and beneath it, a fishing boat lay overturned in the silt. The bow was mostly broken, and the cross-section of the broken plank was a "fresh" color, not blackened or soft, with a clump of seaweed hanging from it.

It had just sunk, which matched A Liang's description; it was only about two hundred meters away from the boat's location.

That's normal.

The Great Marsh marshland was impossible to pinpoint precisely; one could only remember a general location.

Therefore, Liang Qu instructed the Water Beast to adjust their search direction and re-examine the area where the fishing boat sank, centering on the search.

He casually flipped the boat over, ignoring the few small shrimps that were trying to escape, and pushed the fishing boat to the surface.

It's not easy for fishermen to build a boat, but this little boat can still be used after some repairs.

The water poured down, emptying the muddy water from the fishing boat, which barely managed to float on the surface.

Upon hearing the noise, Li LiBo rowed over and saw that it was a slightly damaged fishing boat.

A Liang was overjoyed upon seeing this.

Liang Qu floated on the water, patted the side of the boat, and asked, "Is this yours?"

A Liang nodded hurriedly.

"It can still be used after some repairs. You can slide it back yourself later."

"Thank you, Master Liang. Thank you, Master Liang."

No wonder everyone in Yi Xing Town says that Master Liang is a hero.

A Liang was overjoyed and excited, but when she tried to express her gratitude, Liang Qu's figure had already disappeared from the water.

Chen Jiechang and Li LiBo shared a similar sentiment.

As expected, Liang Qu's strength remained unchanged.

Finding a spirit in Great Marsh is like finding a Spirit Monster in a haystack.

Even after the area was demarcated, Liang Qu still waited for a full half hour.

Gentle ripples sway the aquatic plants.

Cannot Move, it was hidden in the mud and sand, indistinguishable from a dead tree, with no sign of life.

Among Liang Qu's group of Water Beast, Awei and Cannot Move are the best at concealment.

A poisonous insect, a Giant Crocodile.

The former is exceptionally gifted, and the latter... is also exceptionally gifted?

In any case, the one who discovered the monster Cannot Move. A hundred meters in front of it, a large, dark green snake was coiled on the rock, its eyelids covered with a hazy gray film.

It really was a snake! Liang Qu was absolutely right.

The giant serpent before him had a waist as thick as a vat, its scales opening and closing in layers, and its powerful muscles surging beneath the scales. The aura it exuded was extremely strong, almost identical to the Crimson Beast he had captured during the River God Sacrifice.

It's probably going to shed its skin.

Liang Qu stared thoughtfully at the gray membrane on the snake's eyes.

With its molting skin and the presence of the Bing Fire, it's no wonder it came to the Shallow Water Area.

"I'll use you as a practice subject."

Liang Qu watched as the Chuan Lord Slaying Flood Dragon, and his hands itched with urgency, for he was worried that he had no "Flood Dragon" to slay.

He summoned back all the Water Beast and had them surround the giant serpent, giving it no chance of escape.

The strange atmosphere finally alerted the resting giant snake, which raised its head and flicked its tongue.

When it senses danger and tries to escape.

It's too late!

Liang Qu did not launch a sneak attack. He leaped up from the front, releasing his aura without reservation. His eyes shone brightly, like blazing torches, instilling great fear in the giant snake.

Despite its low aura, its fearless demeanor gave the giant snake an extreme sense of danger, as if every scale on its body was filled with blades, rendering it unable to move!

Liang Qu took a step forward, his Azure Dragon Spear Technique ingrained in his mind. As his Qi and Blood surged, the last trace of the essence of the Chuan Lord Slaying Flood Dragon finally played its due role at this moment! The extremely faint phantom of the Divine General appeared behind him, like the interconnected Circumstellar Stars.

In the instant the illusory figures overlapped, Liang Qu understood immediately. A faint blue light swirled around the spear blade, which cut through the water, creating white streaks that flowed out from the tiger's mouth, tracing an almost perfect arc! Roar! In an instant, a Azure Dragon, as if alive, snaked and slithered along the spear blade, emitting a heart-shaking roar.

The giant snake was like a statue. It struggled desperately but could not move an inch. It watched helplessly as the spear came down on its head, and a violent pain exploded from its skull!

Sand and stones flew up from the bottom of the water, and white rapids churned, stirring up dust storms.

Azure Dragon Spear, First Form.

Leaping Abyss, and you've achieved great success!
