Strongest Medical Saint-Chapter 604 - Terrifying Scene
Ke Zhishan and others had arrived one step ahead.
They were waiting here for the people from the Star Sea Sword Sect to come, and then they would go to the Hundred Flower Sect together to bring Xue Wanyue out.
In Li Qiufeng and Wang Qianlan's view, encountering Shen Feng here was just a trivial interlude, and there was no need for them to take him seriously in the future.
...
The night was deep and dark.
After more than an hour of Soaring Through the Sky, Shen Feng returned to the ground. In his memory, he had once carved out a cave dwelling at the bottom of a nearby lake where he had closed off and cultivated for a period of time.
Once again, he calculated with his fingers.
It should be somewhere around here without mistake, but more than two thousand years had passed, and the environment around had changed drastically. He didn't know whether that lake still existed or not?
He swiftly moved forward for about ten more minutes, and a bamboo forest appeared in Shen Feng's sight.
Passing through this bamboo forest, there was a huge lake behind it.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Feng smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, pleased that the lake hadn't disappeared over the years, although he didn't remember such a dense bamboo forest surrounding it before.
He frowned slightly as he saw a woman by the shore of the lake.
This woman wore a red dress, her black hair draped over her shoulders. Her features were lively and exquisite, and her figure was striking, exuding a wild and untamable aura.
However, at this moment, her clothes were stained with fresh blood, and blood continuously trickled from the corner of her mouth; she was lying at the edge of the lake, unable to stand.
Upon sensing someone's arrival, the woman tensed up sharply, but after seeing Shen Feng's face clearly, she relaxed a bit.
Shen Feng had no interest in meddling in other's affairs, even if it was a beautiful woman.
His figure plunged straight into the lake with a "splash!" and he headed toward the bottom of the lake without hesitation.
The woman in red was slightly startled upon seeing Shen Feng's action. She then shouted with all her might, "Come up quickly, the lake bottom is dangerous, it's full of Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish."
Shen Feng, who had entered the water, heard what the woman said but showed no sign of stopping.
The woman in red sighed slightly after seeing Shen Feng not coming up.
"Cough cough!"
She had probably shouted too forcefully just now and coughed up two mouthfuls of blood, making her complexion look even more terrible.
She was Lu Xueqing, the daughter of the City Lord of Spirit Water City.
Spirit Water City was an extremely prosperous cultivators' city, and the City Lord's Mansion was a significant power within it.
Lu Xueqing was ranked among the top three geniuses of Spirit Water City. She had ventured out alone to gain experience and was ambushed along the way.
Fortunately, there were always experts from the City Lord's Mansion secretly protecting Lu Xueqing. However, this ambush was well-prepared, and in the end, all the Mansion's protectors were killed.
But before they died, they managed to get Lu Xueqing out of the enemies' reach.
Lu Xueqing had been escaping toward Spirit Water City and had already used a Message Transmitter Treasure to alert the City Lord's Mansion.
But her injuries were too severe, and upon reaching the lake, she could no longer take a step and collapsed.
There was still about a two-day journey to Spirit Water City from here, and she knew in her heart that she might not wait until the rescue of Spirit Water City arrived.
When Shen Feng arrived just now, she thought it was the enemy pursuing her, so she became very tense.
Originally, she had wanted to hide in the lake, but this was the notorious Bloodthirsty Lake.
A long, long time ago, this was just an ordinary lake, but no one knows when the Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish began to emerge here.
These were extremely ferocious fish-type Monster Beasts, almost extinct, and it was a mystery how so many of them could appear in a common lake.
Once grown, the Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish were usually about half a meter long. When encountering prey, they would swarm up and instantly devour its flesh and bones clean.
According to what Lu Xueqing knew, there were at least tens of thousands of Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish in Bloodthirsty Lake.
Normally, a fully grown Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish would have a cultivation between the Nascent Variation Stage and the Sea Transformation Stage. Lu Xueqing had heard that the strongest Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish in Bloodthirsty Lake had reached the middle stage of Sea Transformation.
However, even a peak Sea Transformation expert entering Bloodthirsty Lake would likely face being devoured to death in the end, simply because there were too many Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish inside, and a peak Sea Transformation expert would certainly be unable to fend them off.
If Lu Xueqing were to enter Bloodthirsty Lake in her current state, she would probably be devoured by the Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish within moments.
Seeing no reaction from inside Bloodthirsty Lake, Lu Xueqing's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she then remembered that Shen Feng only had the aura of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Such weak cultivation entering Bloodthirsty Lake would likely mean no resistance at all, so it wasn't strange that there wasn't much reaction at the bottom of the lake.
She couldn't help but sigh softly in her throat; if that man had been willing to take her away from here just now, then she might have had a slim chance of survival. But who knew he was here to seek death.
And at this moment.
At the bottom of the lake.
As Shen Feng continued to swim towards the bottom, increasingly ugly and bizarre fish began to gather around him.
These fish were covered in blood-red scales, and their scales were full of reverse barbs. Their eyes exhibited a green color that sent shivers down one's spine.
As they opened and closed their mouths, their sharp teeth were revealed, which even reflected the light under the water.
Even a peak Sea Transformation expert would feel an immense despair when surrounded by so many Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish.
But these ferocious Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish did not attack Shen Feng; instead, they were just curiously watching him.
A moment later.
The barbs on their bodies retracted back into their flesh, and they swarmed towards Shen Feng without showing any killing intent.
After the Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish approached Shen Feng, they rubbed against his body as if to ingratiate.
Back then, when Shen Feng came to the bottom of this lake to seclude himself for cultivation, he remembered that he had obtained dozens of Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish.
All of these dozens of Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish were subdued by him and temporarily kept here in the lake.
However, he never had time to come and check on them since then.
Now, the tens of thousands of Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish in the lake are probably the offspring of those dozens of fish that have continuously bred over the years.
Since they were the progeny of those dozens of fish, they naturally felt a familiar connection to Shen Feng.
Generally speaking, the cultivation of Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish could only reach around the peak of Sea Transformation. However, these fish had incredibly long lifespans. As long as one entered the Sea Transformation Stage, it could live between two thousand to three thousand years.
So many years have passed now, and it's unknown whether any of those dozens of Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish from those years are still alive?
While Shen Feng was pondering,
from the deepest part of the lake's bottom, there came a surge of energy. After this energy spread out, the Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish immediately became frightened, swimming rapidly towards the surface of the lake.
Soon.

Shen Feng saw a large figure swimming up from the bottom of the lake, moving extremely slowly. This creature was over two meters long and was beyond comparison to any ordinary Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish.
Feeling its presence, Shen Feng's lips curved into a smile. This Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish was one of the ones he had left here back then.
Perhaps in Bloodthirsty Lake, of those dozens from the past, only this last one remains.
Shen Feng could feel that this Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish's life force was also very weak and it probably didn't have many years left to live.
At the same time
By the side of the lake,
Lu Xueqing saw the constantly roiling surface of the lake and, with all her strength, she moved her body many steps backward, her face full of endless terror.
She saw countless Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish swimming up to the surface, crowding together densely, looking exceedingly eerie.
If anyone dared to stand on the surface of the lake now, they would likely be torn to shreds by the Bloodthirsty Ghost Fish in an instant.
