Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

Chapter 1605: Octopus

The previous experience was that the tentacle would be cut open by Ling Zhenfei. But this time, the tentacle of the blue octopus was different; when struck, it felt as if it had hit steel.

Ling Zhenfei's hand, holding his wrist, was painfully hit. Before he could be surprised, the octopus's tentacle suddenly swung at him again.

Caught off guard, Ling Zhenfei was swept away by the tentacle.

Ling Zhenfei was very shocked, not expecting the octopus to be so powerful.

He stabilized himself in mid-air and landed on the ground. The octopus's long tentacle slammed into the water, sending a column of water soaring.

Thinking deeply, Ling Zhenfei realized that things in this Peach Blossom Secret Realm were indeed strange; the octopus had evolved on its own, and its power had increased more than a fold after evolution.

Legend has it that when the Star Lord built this Peach Blossom Secret Realm, he left four great treasures inside, each crafted by the Star Lord himself.

The Guimou Sect knew this secret, and almost every generation someone entered to find these treasures' locations, but no one found them.

There are many reasons, the first being that people looked in the wrong places. Since the treasures were left by the Star Lord, how could they be easily found?

Another reason is insufficient strength. Ling Zhenfei discovered the self-evolutionary secrets of the monsters in the water and first suspected the water itself.

If Ling Zhenfei had to choose, he would first think of the Star Lord's treasure being hidden in the water.

Because of the Star Lord's treasure in the water, the monsters inside could absorb the Northern Spiritual Energy and evolve.

Ling Zhenfei was curious about what was in the water, but with his current strength, crossing the river was already difficult enough, and going underwater would mean quick death.

During his first river crossing, Ling Zhenfei was knocked into the water and opened his eyes to see many terrifying monsters.

With the help of the Dragon Tooth Dagger, crossing the river used to be straightforward, but with the octopus dragon's evolution, it's now more challenging.

Ling Zhenfei was very frustrated about why entering the Peach Blossom Forest was straightforward, but leaving was so difficult.

Although he had many hesitations, he knew he had to get out.

The river was long, and not all the monsters could have evolved. Thinking this, Ling Zhenfei moved a distance away and then headed towards the opposite shore again.

In mid-air, with the Dragon Tooth Dagger ready to strike, a big fish suddenly leaped from beneath the river's surface.

This big fish looked like a shark, its gaping mouth full of layered teeth like a meat grinder, big enough to swallow Ling Zhenfei whole.

Having suffered before, he knew how to deal with this monster. His left hand executed the Sky Piercing Finger towards the monster's large mouth.

His Sky Piercing Finger was incredibly magical; this thrust would give the monster a deep chill.

But then a stream of water arrows shot from the monster's mouth, neutralizing his thrust.

Forced to land back on the ground, the big fish also splashed into the water, creating a water pillar.

A cold sweat broke out on Ling Zhenfei; it seemed all the water monsters had enhanced abilities.

Although the big fish hadn't evolved to the octopus's monstrous level, it had still enhanced significantly, even developing new skills.

Time couldn't be wasted like this, so Ling Zhenfei decided to pass from the big fish's side.

With this plan, he again used Northern Spiritual Energy to fly towards the riverbank. Prepared this time, the big fish leaped out to bite him again.

Anticipating its attack, he used the Sky Piercing Finger, but his form shifted, dodging to the fish's side.

He swiftly plunged his knife into the big fish's belly.

The big fish writhed in pain, and seizing the momentum, he leaped onto the fish, propelled himself, and headed for the other shore.

Meanwhile, streams of water arrows suddenly shot up from below the water, targeting him from all directions.

The water below was dense with Water Arrow Fish; a normal person couldn't withstand a single shot from them. Their arrows were even mightier than real arrows.

Ling Zhenfei quickly defended himself, using the Heaven-Splitting Ten Fists to punch the water arrows back into the water.

Finally, Ling Zhenfei successfully reached the other shore.

Even now, he was full of astonishment, as the Water Arrow Fish's arrows had become even more potent.

Indeed, something special was occurring within the Peach Blossom Secret Realm.

Leaving the Secret Realm, the sky was already dusk.

Ling Zhenfei mentioned his departure to Lele before leaving; he had an appointment with Su Wanlong.

He found a bag containing four Heart-Talk Fruits as gifts for Su Wanlong.

These were precious gifts, as a single Heart-Talk Fruit could sell for fifty to sixty thousand on the black market.

Giving away thirty to sixty thousand like this was indeed lavish.

He took a car and quickly arrived at the shop where Su Wanlong had arranged to meet.

Mentioning Su Wanlong's name, the waiter politely led Ling Zhenfei to an upstairs room.

Upon opening the door, only Su Wanlong and Su Wanhu were inside.

Ling Zhenfei secretly hoped to see Bai Ling, as they had a very close relationship.

Bai Ling had left some time ago, and Ling Zhenfei still missed her dearly.

Not seeing Bai Ling upon entering left Ling Zhenfei a bit disappointed, but perhaps it was better to avoid awkwardness upon meeting.

Seeing Ling Zhenfei arrive, Su Wanlong and Su Wanhu stood up to greet him.

When they first met Ling Zhenfei, his reputation was still small.

Now, seeing Ling Zhenfei again, things were different; his name was known nationwide.

After exchanging pleasantries, the three sat down.

With only the three of them, the seating arrangements didn't matter.

Ling Zhenfei put the gifts aside, and under Su Wanlong's orders, the dishes began arriving.

Wine was poured, and the three began drinking.

From entering to drinking, even after drinking a lot, Su Wanlong and Su Wanhu didn't bring up anything unrelated to drinking.

As they stayed silent, Ling Zhenfei also said nothing, waiting to see who would speak first.

Ling Zhenfei was sure they had something to discuss; they wouldn't have invited him just for a meal.

Sure enough, after several rounds of drinks, Su Wanlong began to speak.
