The Eight-Clawed Giant Alligators were narrowing their encirclement. Their goal was clear, it was to shrink the space around Meng Xiaodie.
Meng Xiaodie was slowly accumulating energy and channeling her inner force to connect her arms. Shen Hong was holding the crescent shaped saber tightly, so she was not sure if she could escape from the quagmire with her physical strength. Moreover, she couldn't escape the quagmire where she landed.
Meng Xiaodie looked at the distance and saw that it was already in the range of his attack. With a twist of his wrist, he swept his sword towards the surrounding crocodiles, the sword Qi whistled into the water, creating a semicircle of white light as the Sword Qi spread everywhere, hitting at least twenty of the eight-clawed crocodiles. Although their outer skins were tough, they were still scattered by the powerful sword Qi, causing their flesh and blood to fly everywhere. Their attacks were especially effective, killing almost half of the crocodiles.
Shen Hong was just about to happily yell when another 20 giant crocodiles appeared out of the water. Those giant crocodiles had scattered all over the water, and in the blink of an eye, all of their dead bodies were completely devoured.
"Oh my god, these things are too scary. They actually eat corpses of their own kind." Shen Hong cried out.
"These crocodiles are cold-blooded to begin with. You have to be careful of them. If you bite their teeth, they won't let go." As Meng Xiaodie spoke, he waved his arm again and threw out a sword attack. A massive sword energy roared across the water, and there were at least twenty crocodiles that were destroyed by the sword energy. However, a dozen or so crocodiles were already in front of them. Shen Hong brandished her crescent shaped scimitar and chopped them down, forcing back a few crocodiles. The other dozen or so crocodiles were hacked down by Meng Xiaodie, injuring six or seven of them.
Shen Hong frowned. The Giant Alligator had made her nauseous before, but now, with so many corpses and blood floating around her, she felt even more nauseous, almost as if she was about to vomit.
There were still a dozen or so crocodiles remaining that charged at her at the same time. Without much time to think, she brandished her blade and hacked wildly at one of the crocodiles. One of the crocodiles opened its mouth and bit into her sleeve. However, not long after, several more giant crocodiles surfaced. They opened their large mouths and instantly swept through the crocodile carcasses that were floating on the surface of the water.
The crocodiles, who had eaten their fill, formed a circle and attacked the two of them.
Meng Xiaodie realized that this was a war of attrition. The goal was to exhaust their energy. If this went on, the two of them would die of exhaustion before the crocodiles were completely killed. When he saw the crocodile that had been injured by Shen Hong floating above the water surface, losing its combat strength, Meng Xiaodie's eyes lit up as she thought of an idea. This time, when he used his sword, he had weakened his internal force, so he used his sword to knock the crocodile unconscious. The crocodiles floating above the water surface could not eat the crocodile as a whole, and the crocodiles floating above the water surface had to form a barrier.
While Meng Xiaodie was still feeling happy about her plan, the surface of the water suddenly calmed down, and those crocodiles didn't come back to the surface.
After waiting for a while, Meng Xiaodie thought, "Why aren't these things attacking them?" Could it be that he had changed his attacking method? Shen Hong was also surprised. She looked left and right with her eyes wide open, but didn't see any new crocodiles appearing on the surface of the water.
"Meng Xiaodie, are there no more crocodiles in the water? have been killed by us? " Shen Hong asked.
"It's unlikely. If the crocodiles were to be easily killed, where would all these crocodiles come from? We know that it is an illusion, but this swamp is a huge aura. If the aura is not destroyed, the crocodile will not be so easily killed. "
The surface of the water was too calm, which made Meng Xiaodie uneasy. He frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly shouted, "It's not good!" He hastily tried to pull Shen Hong up, but Shen Hong was standing there, leaning over.
He jumped onto the back of an unconscious crocodile and forcefully pulled Shen Hong, but the crocodile's strength was too great, and it was not a crocodile dragging Shen Hong. Seeing Shen Hong falling, Meng Xiaodie grabbed the black sword, thrust it downwards, and a stream of blood rushed up. He stabbed Shen Hong a few more times, causing a series of blood to surge out and roll in the air. Meng Xiaodie took the opportunity to lift Shen Hong out of the water.
The crocodile had torn off a few pieces of Shen Hong's robe, but fortunately, his leg was not injured. They stood on the crocodile's back, but the crocodile did not appear again. The water surface was surprisingly calm.
It seemed that her opponent was setting up an even bigger trap. Meng Xiaodie said to Shen Hong, "Let's go. Let's take advantage of this opportunity and quickly leave."
They jumped off the back of the crocodile and jumped back into the swamp, but after they had walked a few steps, they heard the loud sound of water behind them. Turning their heads, they saw an even bigger crocodile emerge from the water and rush towards them.
This crocodile was several times bigger than other crocodiles. It was like a mountain, casting a huge shadow. The shadow covered both of them and the light dimmed.
Meng Xiaodie felt a heavy pressure on her. This was an extremely heavy Baleful Yin Force. They had to escape the shadow. The two of them sped up, but the crocodile moved very fast. In the blink of an eye, it caught up.
Meng Xiaodie turned around and threw out a sword attack. A white light flashed and hit the crocodile. The crocodile froze for a moment and then stopped. Meng Xiaodie and Shen Hong sped up and ran a few steps, but a moment later, the crocodile returned to its normal state and continued chasing. Meng Xiaodie saw that the crocodile was getting closer, so she swung her sword again.
The crocodile's long mouth almost touched Shen Hong's back. Meng Xiaodie turned her sword back and hacked at the crocodile's mouth, and this slash almost cut off half of the crocodile's mouth. The crocodile stopped in pain, and Meng Xiaodie told Shen Hong to leave first, as the aura would disappear the moment they stepped out of the swamp. He raised his black sword and blocked the crocodile's path.
The crocodile had lost half of its mouth, and was bleeding profusely. It stared at Meng Xiaodie with its round eyes, then suddenly raised its claws and tried to slap Meng Xiaodie.
