Chapter 79 - 73: Killer Waterfall
On the riverside among the flowers, the woman wore little and cried incessantly.
The man stood with his hands on his hips, looking impatient.
"This body should have been stronger than my own, most likely he fed his yang essence blood to this River Girl, that’s why he only has the strength of a Second Rank."
"If I could replenish it, he might even have the potential to advance to a Third Rank physique!"
"That would be great, if I could successfully guide it back, it would be a huge supplement!"
To be honest, Wu Hen was not so much craving the River Girl’s body, but more his own host’s body!
When the River Girl had cried enough, Wu Hen displayed the demeanor of a gentleman conqueror, pinching the River Girl’s chin and asking, "Can this downstream waterfall directly lead to the valley above?"
This was the upper reach of the river, but the clear, turbulent water flowed into a pool below, then suddenly reversed and surged upwards, cascading into a Hanging Valley hundreds of meters high. This unusual phenomenon could be dangerous, so it was better to ask a local.
The River Girl was naturally a local, asking her would be the right choice.
"You jump into the waterfall, follow the current, and you will reach the Hanging Valley, boohoo~~" The River Girl Leader wiped her tears.
"Are there any ferocious mutant beasts?" Wu Hen asked.
"Just some Demon Catfish, with your strength, you should handle them easily." The River Girl Leader replied.
"Seeing you’re just a blood-sucking female fairy that doesn’t harm lives, I’ll spare you. We part ways here." Wu Hen said and then walked toward the reverse cascading waterfall.
"Boohoo, boohoo~~" Suddenly, the River Girl Leader cried out even louder.
Wu Hen ignored her.
"You took my lord’s life and yet you disregard this poor girl!" The River Girl Leader exclaimed.
Her words left Wu Hen speechless.
It felt like he had intruded into someone’s home, killed the husband, and taken her purity.
This host body was the most improper one ever, how did it end up involved with a female fairy? Judging by some lingering feelings in the host, it indeed seemed quite fond of this River Girl Leader.
"Moreover, if you are going there, without me leading the way, you would hardly survive to the Barbaric Mountain Range." The River Girl Leader noticed that Wu Hen intended to head to the distant Barbaric Mountain Range.
"Is that so? Tell me more." Wu Hen asked with interest.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Not to mention you can’t handle the Flower Fairy in the Hanging Valley, the Vortex Ancient Relics are like a massive sealed land, and without ancient methods, you can’t escape. Even the waterfall has hidden mysteries and will drain your energy." The River Girl Leader explained.
The path to the Blue Sky was fraught with difficulties, and Wu Hen was unsure what different rules governed such places. If he died, he would have nothing.
"Then follow me if you must." Wu Hen said.
"Blood, I need your blood. Our kind requires essence blood for survival... If you leave, I won’t survive either."
"I’ll catch you a fish, can you drink fish blood?" Wu Hen asked.
The River Girl Leader glared at him with her watery eyes, looking at the man who had intruded here.
A River Girl, needing someone else to catch fish for her!
"Then hold me and swim up." Wu Hen said.
"Hmph." The River Girl Leader got upset, refusing to help Wu Hen cross the waterfall unless he apologized for his earlier disrespect.
"This is for you, probably something he picked." Wu Hen took out the flower Ganoderma from his pouch.
Seeing the flower Ganoderma, the River Girl Qiaqia had watery eyes and unknowingly started crying again.
Qi Lang likely ventured deep into the forest to pick this rare flower Ganoderma for her and got lost...
Wu Hen stood by without speaking.
The flower Ganoderma was a Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure that could enhance one’s physique, but it was highly toxic. Wu Hen’s taste sense easily detected it; the River Girl could consume it, but he couldn’t take even a bit.
Captain Qin Sheng once said that if the taste sense reached a higher level, it could digest contaminated and toxic items.
Wu Hen’s aunt taught him that most Desert Dust meat was safe to eat as long as one could hunt it, but the fruits, berries, flower nectar, insect grass, and mushrooms from the Desert Dust could not be consumed directly; they would increase contamination.
Hence, unless facing starvation, food gathered couldn’t be eaten directly; it had to be purified by the universal Yuan You.
After opening the taste sense, Wu Hen could directly consume wild plants, discerning whether they were toxic with a single bite and spitting them out if they were.
In truth, the River Girl was the first thing he tasted here, highly toxic, a river pufferfish spirit!
The River Girl was indeed hungry, devouring the flower Ganoderma, tears streaming down her face as she ate.
"Let’s go, I’ll take you up." The River Girl Qiaqia composed herself.
Wu Hen nodded and stepped into the river.

The White Salamander Woman gently approached, wrapping her soft, water-like body around Wu Hen. Quickly, the icy river seemed blocked by some Immortal Law, no longer soaking Wu Hen’s body, and he could not feel the current’s force.
It was like standing on the shore.
Wu Hen began to believe that this woman was indeed the River Lady...
Reaching the end of the river, the water surged upward with tremendous momentum, shooting into the sky. When Wu Hen followed the River Girl to this point, he felt a powerful force pulling him upward and simultaneously felt like he was plummeting into an abyss!
The torrent raged, battering Wu Hen’s body as fiercely as mountain stones, and he couldn’t make out sky from ground. In this Divine Python Earth Vein, there seemed to be no defined heaven and earth, as if it were unformed chaos, without Pangu separating heaven and earth!
"Wasn’t it said that the torrent wouldn’t damage me?"
The world spun, the waterfall’s pressure struck, his body felt like it would break, and his internal organs were close to shattering!
Wu Hen endured the pain.
At some point, the River Girl stopped wrapping around him and hovered above the furious torrent.
In a daze, Wu Hen glimpsed her cold face and resentful eyes!
Her pure, noble aura indeed matched the image of a River Lady, but at this moment, she was no different from a venomous River Demon.
A wicked woman!
Everything before was an act to lure people to the waterfall to be smashed to death!
