Lory clenched her jaw, as she carefully watched her surroundings warily Girsha has already merged with her again in order to protect her just in case the crystal glass broke it would only Girsha wings that could protect her but still no guarantee she will leave unscathed.
The crystal ball continued to float in the middle of the dark acid water while being slowly pulled up by the current while the black shadow swam around then seemingly curious about the foreign object that had suddenly appeared.
Every now and then the black shadow hit the crystal ball causing Lory who was inside to shake like a snowman inside the snowball.
Lory didn't give up easily, she pressed her palm against the surface of the transparent crystal glass to keep the glass intact, but her actions made the creature even more curious and as a result, it launched more attacks to the left and right.
Lory groaned furiously, but it was difficult for her to fight back in the poisonous acid water plus it was too dark for her to pinpoint where the enemy was.
Lory then raised her palm against the crystal surface and soon after another layer of water engulf the crystal ball while her other meanwhile she stretch her other hands soon after the current around her got stronger and stronger pushing the ball faster.
[The creature is chasing us] Girsha's voice was calm and steady but Lory could feel the bird was rather uneasy.
still, Lory didn't have time to think about the creatures that follow her as her mind concentrated to get out of this acid water first.
Once again the creature give another attack but this time the hit was much stronger than before thus the outer layer of the crystal shattered, Lory bit her lips as she pushed her power soon the broken outer layer was reconnected and returned to normal, seeing this the mysterious creature became even more curious. Once again the creature attacked the Lory crystal ball and with every attack getting stronger and stronger eventually shatters the entire outer layer of the crystal ball.
Lory felt the ball would not last long so he used all her strength to speed up the current to get it out as soon as possible, meanwhile, the crystal ball swayed left and right after being hit causing Lory to be unable to stand she fell on one knee at the same time raising her hands to control her power to get them out of there.
[LORY, the crystal won't last long!" Girsha screamed anxiously.
<strong>[I KNOW!]</strong> Lory answered with a shout as the crystal surface started to crack.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe crystal ball slid on the acid water, and not long after she saw a light flickering from above Immediately hope rose within her without further ado she gathered all her strength controlling all the water around to push the crystal ball up.
Suddenly, she heard the sounds of cracking increasing a second later the glass crystal shattered, quickly Girsha engulf Lory's body with her wings a second later they managed to burst out of the acid water, finally, she managed to get out.
Once they got out Lory let out a long exhale meanwhile the wings carried her into the air, but then Lory smelled the burning smell, she noticed Girsha's feathers burned from the acid water.
Lory unleashes her healing power which heals not only her wounds but Girsha's as well.
[Are you all right, old bird?] Lory gently touched Girsha's beautiful snow-white feathers adorn with golden color on the tips.
[Yes, thank you girl] Girsha heaved a sigh of relief he was just glad he managed able to protect her.
Lory then turned her gaze to the pool below before long bubbles appeared on the surface of the pool followed by a large shadow approaching.
Lory summoned twin long daggers from her ring knowing a new battle was about to begin.
Soon a long back covered with dark green scales appeared on the surface of the pool accompanied by ripples of water then a long black shadow was clearly seen swimming under the water which at first glance looked like a giant snake but snakes do not live in water let alone acid water.
[Lory, that beast is huge...] Girsha's worry increases.
[Yup!] Lory spun her daggers in a fighting stance, then she glance at the ceiling and shook her head [I hope the cave doesn't collapse...] Judging by the size of the monsters lory was worried that the impact of their fight would destroy the entire cave.
In this situation what else can Girsha say other than giving encouraging words, [Let's hope for the best!]
[Uh huh!] Lory answers perfunctorily.
The giant head that spouted from the acid pool turned out to be not a snake but a giant Eel with a gaping mouth filled with sharp teeth as big as the dagger she was holding.
[Woo, Acid giant Eel, this will be the first...] Lory was amazed by the size of the monster but secretly got excited.
The monster roared and then twisted its humongous body causing the acid water to splash all over the place forcing Lory to create a transparent barrier to protect herself.
[Tsk, just happened I craving some fish meat today!] Girsha was a voice filled with viciousness and excitement.
The monster opened its wide jaws revealing a row of sharp - dark yellow teeth, but what actually bothered Lory was the monster's bad breath.
[Uggh, this is disgusting...] Lory coughed then wiped her nose, [Don't blame me if you have acid reflux after this!] she scolded Girsha before shooting herself at the monster which caused the whole cave to shake slightly.

Elsewhere, the four palace kings were being bullied by a giant black bird, they were annoyed that the fight was taking too long and they had to admit that they were a little embarrassed that they couldn't kill this creature even though they had attacked it together.
"We spent too long here!" Jiang Jin Wei grumbled in annoyance.
"Well, I'm open to any ideas!" shouted Wu San Bo while dodging the bird's violent attack.
Bei Li Yan who was getting tired and impatient turned his head towards Jin Hao "Jin, any idea would be great now!"
Jin Hao curl his lips downwards only in this situation his stupid brothers would ask for his opinion even so he racked his brain for some ideas, not in vain an idea popped into his head.
"If we can't hurt it from the outside, we can hurt it from the inside!" Jin Hao smirked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Okay! How?" Bei Li Yan raised his brows.
Jin Hao summoned five jade bottles from his ring and then threw some of them at Bei Li Yan and Wu San Bo.
"Jin Wei, make the bird open its beak!" Jin Hao shouted at Jiang Jin Wei.
"What's this?" Bei Li Yan asked.
"Bone-melting powder but is ten times stronger!" Jin Hao smirked evilly.
Bei Li Yan's eyes widened in shock, "Why did you make something like this?" Bei Li Yan shrilled, what's wrong with the ordinary bone-melting powder, why should make a stronger one?
Jin Hao then replied nonchalantly, "I'm bored..."
'Of course, you do' Bei Li Yan rolled his eyes.
"Let's give this creature a stomach ache!" Wu San Bo shouted excitedly.
It sounded funny but they did plan to force the creature to swallow something bad.
Jiang Jin Wei rushed at the bird while clenching his fists he aimed his fist right at the bird's throat causing it to groan in pain, Jin Hao and the others took this change, opened the bottle cap, and threw the bottles at the beast's beak which was wide open.
The beast 'gulp' then paused for a moment the same thing happened to the four king palaces, they all watched quietly.
A moment later, the bird began to squirm and wiggle soon after the bird coughs black blood into the air.
"Does it work?" Jiang Jin Wei frowned looking expectantly.
"I guessed it is..."Wu San Bo's eyes gleamed as he spoke.
The bird began unable to maintain its flight, after a while, the bird large body began to rise and fall irregularly while the bird's wings started to distort horribly not long after the giant black bird can not hold on anymore its giant body fell to the ground.
<strong>"HIT IT, NOW!"</strong> Jin Hao gathered his pure Qi in his sword and then jumped down with his sword aimed at the weakened bird.
