"Retreat quickly!"
Shen Luo cried out in surprise and grabbed Xie Yuxin beside him. The moonlight above his feet shone brightly and he shot backwards at an incredible speed.
Two black tentacles brushed against their bodies, missed them, and fell to the ground.
With two loud bangs, two huge holes about ten feet deep were smashed into the ground.
Shen Luo was horrified and did not dare to stop at all. He continued to fly backwards with all his strength.
Lu Huaming, who was standing next to him, had white light flashing on his body and also retreated in time so he was not caught by the tentacles.
The waves in the river rolled, revealing a black monster as big as a mountain.
This monster was shaped like an octopus, with dozens of huge tentacles dancing wildly, causing huge waves on the river surface like the sea. There were two scarlet eyes in the center of the tentacles, staring at the three people on the shore, revealing an endless murderous and bloodthirsty look.
When Shen Luo and the other two saw this terrifying beast, they felt a chill in their hearts.
If they had been a step slower, they would have been caught by the tentacles and dragged into the river, with no chance of survival.
Although Shen Luo had the Pure Yang Sword Embryo and the Red Lotus Karma Fire in his hands, he had no confidence of defeating such a giant beast.
The huge river monster only roared in the river and did not come ashore to chase.
The cold and gloomy energy from other places on the river slowly floated over. The giant octopus roared wildly at the three people unwillingly, and its huge body disappeared into the bottom of the river again and soon disappeared.
"It seems that this monster cannot come ashore, and it is very afraid of the cold and yin energy. We took away the cold and yin energy in this area, so it came out to cause trouble." Lu Huaming said.
"Then we should not continue to collect the cold Yin energy, otherwise this monster may come out again." Xie Yuxin said.
"I don't think it's necessary. The river is wide. As long as we are careful and don't collect the cold Yin energy in one place, there shouldn't be much danger." Shen Luo said as he took a glance.
The cold and dark energy in the river is of great benefit to the Qiankun bag. If it continues to absorb it, there is hope that the two layers of restrictions in the bag will be restored. It would be a pity to stop now.
"Brother Shen is right. We should not miss this dark cold Yin energy. However, Brother Xie's concerns are not without reason... So, let's go downstream for a distance, avoid the monsters in the river, and then disperse to collect the Yin energy in the river." Lu Huaming seemed to be quite eager for the dark cold Yin energy, and said after a moment of hesitation.
Shen Luo nodded in agreement. Seeing that both of them said so, Xie Yuxin didn't know how to object.
So the three of them went downstream, and after walking for dozens of miles they stopped and dispersed to continue collecting the cold and yin energy in the river.
Fearing that monsters might emerge from the river and attack again, the three of them stood far away from the river and each took out their magical weapons to prevent any accidents.
Time passed little by little, and soon half an hour had passed.
The capacity of Xie Yuxin and Lu Huaming's magic weapons soon reached their limits and they stopped one after another. However, Shen Luo continued to devour the negative energy on the river surface.
The light on the Qiankun bag suddenly lit up, and two black halos emerged, and the two scattered restrictions were completely restored.
Shen Luo could feel that the Qiankun bag had restored the ninth level of restrictions, and its power increased immediately. Apart from anything else, the devouring power alone was many times stronger than before.
He looked at the Qiankun bag and felt a little surprised. He originally thought that after the two layers of restrictions were restored, the Qiankun bag would stop absorbing the cold and dark Yin energy. However, he did not expect that the bag was like a bottomless pit. It did not stop at all and continued to absorb the cold and dark Yin energy, even faster than before.
