Thankfully, some places on both sides of the hole were dry . However, getting too close to the hole could still be dangerous .
“Be careful! Don’t fall into the water . ” Yuan Tianxing said to the others, then hopped onto the edge of the hole . He looked into the hole and saw a great, underground lake . The water in the lake rippled and generated a clattering sound . The surface of the lake wasn’t as peaceful as the surface of the underground river .
Yuan Tianxing sensed many dangerous vibes coming from the lake, and even saw some enormous, faint figures moving in the water . The others soon landed by his sides and held their breaths when they saw the lake .
Earlier, they didn’t sense any dangerous vibe coming from the hole at all . However, once they came up to the edge of the hole, the strong sense of danger instantly shrouded them .
As they showed up, many dark figures in the lake came toward them .
“This is not good! Move! The things in the water are coming toward us!” Lu Fang knitted his brows and gave a shout once he came up . At the same time, countless tentacles suddenly reached out of the water from right near them and wriggled like snakes, swishing toward Yuan Tianxing and the others .
Yuan Tianxing and his people reacted swiftly, leaping backward and landing back where they came from . However, those tentacles were much faster than they were . Lei Yao, who was slightly slow, ended up being caught .
“Lei Yao!” Seeing that, Li Zheng burst in yells and fleetingly threw a few huge ice blades at the tentacles which had Lei Yao wrapped up .
Bang! Bang! Bang! Li Zheng’s ice blades shattered against the tentacles .
Before Lei Yao was dragged into the water, a long spear flashed across the air and sank into the tentacles .
Old Guo raised both his arms to control the spear and raised it . The tentacles twisted and attempted to pull the spear down, to the point where Old Guo’s face twisted . The tentacles were so strong that Old Guo felt quite difficult to control the spear in the air .
Lei Yao tried to free himself from whatever was wrapping his body . However, he found his superpower disabled . He couldn’t feel the energy inside his nucleus at all . Without feeling his power, he could not put forth his strength .
At that moment, a widely opened mouth with sharp teeth rose from the water and came at him .
All of a sudden, a hundreds of kilograms heavy rock fell from the cave roof and into the giant mouth .
Lei Yao was thrown away, not toward the outside, but to the center of the lake .
At that moment, a vine swung toward him and caught him before he fell into the water, then pulled him back and threw him back up into the air . As he was finally safe, the others landed back on the ground down the waterfall with their hearts thumping .
“Are you hurt?” Li Zheng ran up to Lei Yao and asked with concern .
Lei Yao was still gasping for air . Just now, he thought was really going to die . Hearing Li Zheng’s question, he came back to his senses, then automatically dropped his head to check himself . After that, he raised his head and said to the others, “I’m fine . ”
“I was worried dead! Be careful, bro!” Feng Yuming patted Lei Yao on the shoulder .
“Thank you!” Lei Yao looked at him and thanked . At last, it was Feng Yuming who sent out the vine to save him from falling into the water .
“Alright! As long as you’re not hurt . ” After confirming that Lei Yao was all fine, Yuan Tianxing nodded and turned to look into the hole . The tentacles from the water looked like the tentacles of an octopus, but without suckers . Those tentacles were very long, thick, and smooth . The mouth that came out of the water just now looked like the mouth of a fish . Those sharp teeth looked rather scary .
“What are those? Mutated fishes? What are those tentacles?” Feng Yuming asked the others .
The others glanced at each other, then all turned to look at the hole . “The mouth looked a little like a fish mouth . But, I don’t know what those tentacles belong to . Do they belong to the monstrous fish? Or, is it some other creature?” someone said .
“I don’t know . But, that thing is huge . And I feel there’re more of them in the water,” Yuan Tianxing shook his head, then turned to Lu Fang and asked him, “Did you feel anything .
Lu Fang nodded at him, then gave a long roar .
Old Guo translated Lu Fang’s words, “He said there are a lot of them in the water . Those tentacles belonged to the fish . You may not be able to see them, but he can sense their shapes . They have spherical bodies, with tentacles all over their bodies . Unlike the normal fishes, they don’t have tails . ”
The others pictured a ball with a fish head and a large fish mouth, along with twisting tentacles all over its body .
“I feel it’s like a huge globefish . Globefishes don’t have tentacles though . Also, globefishes have tails,” Lin Yu pictured an angry globefish in his head, then added twisting tentacles to it . That was indescribably weird .
Lu Fang gave him a glance and thought for a moment, then nodded . The fishes in the lake did look like globefishes, but they were extra large and with countless tentacles .
“They’re very aggressive . I guess the hole is too small, so they can’t come over here,” Yuan Tianxing glanced at the hole, then thought of the giant mouth that he saw .
The fish mouth was at least ten meters long and four meters wide . The oval-shaped hole above the waterfall was long, but only about three meters wide . It was a little too narrow for those creatures in the lake .
The one that attacked Lei Yao just now might not be the largest one, but the smallest one couldn’t be much smaller than it .
“Is those fishes’ vibe what scared the underground gorillas out of the cave? Will they come out of the water?” Li Zheng turned to look back .
The waterfall was miles away from the gorillas’ cave . The distance wasn’t short, but wasn’t long either .
All of a sudden, a massive wave of long and huge tentacles gushed out of the hole, rushing toward Yuan Tianxing and the others while generating a loud sound of water .
Everyone quickly moved backward . The space was too limited, and the people moved all together, so the place became a little crowded instantly . Thankfully, a few higher-leveled ones leaped straight to the other side of the pond under the waterfall .
Bang! Bang! Bang! As the people dodged, those tentacles pierced into the ground and broke the rock, but missed their targets . In the very next second, those tentacles scattered and reached further out . Yuan Tianxing and the other humans weren’t their sole targets; those creatures were aiming at Old Guo and the other zombies too .
A row of giant teeth was seen in the hole upon the waterfall .
