Chapter 5247: Using both soft and hard tactics

Translator: 549690339

He didnt know what kind of abilities his opponent had or how strong he was, so he couldnt act rashly. As for health-maintenance Fei, hed have to make him suffer a little. If he was lucky, Lin Yi could save his life, but if the monster didnt show up, he could only blame his own bad luck. After all, he couldnt let Lin Yi risk his life to save an outsider like him time and time again.

Fortunately, G.o.d was on his side again. The monster couldnt help but attack again when it saw Lin Yi standing still on the sh.o.r.e. A hand covered in scales suddenly reached out from the river water, just like before.

This time, its target was Lin Yis ankle. Its intention was obvious-it wanted to drag Lin Yi into the river like it did with the paid-to-eat treatment. As long as Lin Yi was in the water, it would be its world.

Its movements were fast, and it didnt even leave a single ripple behind when it emerged from the water. It was so fast that normal people wouldnt be able to defend against it, but it was Lin Yi.

Lin Yi had at least ten different ways to deal with this sneak attack, and in order to make sure that everything went as planned, he used the most unsolvable method.

The hand had grabbed Lin Yis ankle, but it missed in the next second. Lin Yi appeared beside him, raising his hand and releasing a blue arc of lightning. He used the numbing effect to pull the hand out.

He didnt know what was going on until he saw the monsters weird appearance. Even Lin Yi was stunned.

At first glance, he looked like a four or five-year-old child, but his entire body was covered with dense black scales. On his back was a medium-sized turtle sh.e.l.l, and there was a hole in the top of his head. There was a lot of water in the hole, and anyone would be shocked by such a face.

Kappa? The thought crossed Lin Yis mind. The creature in front of him was the same as the water monster in folk legends. A Kappa was also called a Water Tiger, and it was a water monster recorded in the Compendium of Materia Medica, but he always thought it was just a legend. He didnt expect to see a living one here.

You know me? Kappa mumbled in human language as he stared at Lin Yi with extreme vigilance.

Strictly speaking, it was an amphibious creature. It was the world in the water and could move freely on land, but it was obvious that it only had strong confidence in the water. Now that Lin Yi had grabbed it to the sh.o.r.e, it was nervous. It didnt look like it was going to attack Lin Yi, but was trying to escape back into the river.

Hehe, it really is the legendary Kappa. Ive really gained a lot of knowledge from this archaic trial. Lin Yi couldnt help but chuckle. First it was goumang, and now it was Kappa. The test of the ancient era really did live up to its name. It really did feel like they had returned to the ancient era.

Human, what do you want? Kappa was still staring at Lin Yi with extreme vigilance.

Nothing much. Im just a little curious. Lin Yi looked very relaxed, but there was nothing to be nervous about. He was nervous for a while before the Kappa was caught-after all, anyone who could hide from his spirit sense couldnt be easy to deal with. But now, he didnt need to worry anymore, because this guy was at most a Foundation Stage spirit beast, and couldnt pose a real threat to Lin Yi.

As for why it was able to hide from Lin Yis spirit sense, it was probably due to the Kappas innate ability. After all, this guy was like a river G.o.d in some legends.

Leave this place, leave the hundred herb garden, or youll regret it! Kappa threatened, but he was too short and he was dragged up by Lin Yi, so this threat didnt pose much of a threat to him.

So this is the hundred herb garden. Lin Yi nodded and looked it up and down.So youre the owner of this place?

No, Im just a gardener here. If my master finds out, youll be dead. Leave this place quickly, human! Kappa said again.

Who is your master? Lin Yi didnt reply and continued to ask.

My master is The Kappa suddenly stopped. It blinked its eyes, and the water on its head suddenly rose to the sky and fell down like rain. As soon as its body came into contact with the water, it disappeared.

He looks simple and honest, but I didnt expect him to be so cunning. Lin Yi shook his head and appeared on the right side of the empty s.p.a.ce. He didnt hesitate to use a thousand wild fire legs.

Bang! Bang! With a m.u.f.fled sound, a small figure appeared at the tip of Lin Yis feet and flew out without any suspense, landing heavily on the pile of herbs tens of meters away.

You How can you see me? The Kappa did not care about its injury, and its face, which was covered with thick scales, forced a shocked expression. Being invisible in the water was the innate ability of the Kappa race, and even existences much stronger than them could not detect it. It did not expect that it would fail in front of a human.

Is it strange? Lin Yi asked back. It was true that this guys ability to blend in with the water was amazing, just like when it was hiding in the river flawlessly, even Lin Yis divine sense couldnt detect it.

But at least 50% of the reason was because of the waters effect-without that interference, Lin Yi could at least find some clues even if he couldnt lock onto the mans position.

The Kappa was obviously speechless. As Lin Yi had predicted, it wasnt a powerful being. If it was stronger in the river, it could deal with most Foundation Stage spirit beasts and human cultivators, but it was much weaker on the ground. In the end, it only had one trump card, and that was the Kappas innate ability to be invisible underwater.

Now that Lin Yi had broken the invisible barrier in the water, and it was stuck on the ground, it wasnt far from breaking down its psychological defense.

Human, what do you want? Kappa looked at Lin Yi with some panic and pointed at the rare herbs around,If you leave now, I can let you take some spiritual herbs with you. Otherwise, if you alarm master, youll be dead, human.

Lin Yi couldnt help but smile-this Kappa was interesting, using both hard and soft tactics when it couldnt beat him. He teased,Do you think you can send me away with these trashy spiritual herbs? (To be continued.)
