”There really is someone over there.”

Yan Wu said as she pointed to a place. Han Chen was stunned for a moment, before she calmed herself and listened. Sure enough, the faint sounds of fighting could be heard from the depths of the forest.

”Let's go take a look.”

”Not going.” Yan Wu replied indifferently, as if she could not arouse any interest.

”If you don't want to go, I'll go.” Han Chen replied casually, and quickly headed towards the origin of the voice.

After walking about three to four hundred meters, he heard a clear and distinct sound. They couldn't help but hear the exclamations of humans and the roars of magical beasts.

The first thing that appeared in Han Chen's line of sight was a ten-meter-tall crocodile beast standing on its two legs. This was the first time Han Chen had seen a standing crocodile. The lower part of its body was quite large, and its entire body was covered with a thick layer of scale leather armour. Its face was hideous and ferocious, and its wide and long mouth was filled with dense, cold, sharp teeth.

There were six people fighting against the giant crocodile, four men and two women, all in their twenties. From the way they were dressed, it was clear that they were the juniors from wealthy families and sects.

”Big Bro Cui Yuan, this Marsh Crocodile is hard to deal with. Let's retreat first!” The one who spoke was a young lady dressed in green. She was standing a few meters away from the crocodile, using her sword Qi to attack its body.

The huge crocodile's body was covered in white marks. Occasionally, a few attacks would break through its armour, but the crocodile wasn't able to inflict too much damage to it.

The man called Cui Yuan was tall and slender, with a handsome face. The weapon he used was a long spear. Sharp spear lights intertwined together, specially aiming at the Giant Alligator's weak abdomen.

”Lu Yin, you and Cui Tai help me.” Cui Yuan shouted.

”Alright, big brother Cui Yuan.” The lady in green nodded and walked up with the other young man, Cui Tai, to help.

After giving out the orders, Cui Yuan turned to the other two men and woman and said, ”Han Ying, the three of you carry out a pincer attack. There was nothing to be afraid of from this Shallow Marsh Crocodile. As long as we cooperate, we can definitely kill it off. ”

”Got it, Big Brother Cui Yuan.”

Cui Yuan played a leading role in the team. The five of them had no objections to his suggestion. Their teamwork was also quite well coordinated. Sword light, spear shadows and numerous sharp attacks attacked the giant crocodile.

Roar! The crocodile let out an angry roar, and its huge tail swung behind it. A black shadow flashed through the air. Bang! He hit a tree as thick as a bucket. The large tree was instantly smashed into smithereens.

Hiding in the shadows, Han Chen secretly nodded his head. The group of people in front were all very strong. The leading Cui Yuan had a cultivation base at the ninth level of mastery.

While Cui Tai was at the eighth level of mastery, Lu Yin, who was dressed in green, was at the sixth level of mastery. The other three were also around the sixth stage.

”So it's a weak beast king like the Shallow Marsh Giant Alligator.” A voice filled with disdain towards women came from behind Han Chen.

Han Chen who was watching the fight could not help but be shocked, he glared at the person who came over and asked: ”Aren't you not coming here?”

”I've changed my mind again, can't I?”

”Sure, sure.” Han Chen secretly shook his head, then suddenly thought of something and asked: ”What did you say just now? That giant crocodile is a beast king? ”

”That's right!” Yan Wu replied.

”Then why do I only feel that it is as strong as a magical beast of the ninth rank?”

Yan Wu rolled her eyes at him, ”It's still in its growing stages, when it matures, its strength will be comparable to morphogenesis.”

Han Chen suddenly realized that all beasts had a growth stage and a maturing stage, just like how humans did in their childhood and adulthood. Due to the large body of the Giant Alligator in front of him, Han Chen naturally thought that it had already reached maturity.

Cui Yuan, Lu Yin, and the rest knew that the other side had yet to fully mature. That was why they dared to provoke it. Otherwise, given their strength, they wouldn't dare to provoke it. If he met a beast king, he wouldn't dare to fight them.

Bang! The battle in front of them became even more intense, and gouges of varying depth appeared on the ground. The surrounding trees were also destroyed beyond recognition.

Under the combined attacks of the six people, the surface of the giant crocodile's body showed many wounds. Its dark red blood made it even more violent and angry.

”How boring. It will take at least an hour to finish the battle.” Yan Wu frowned slightly.

Han Chen nodded his head, even though the Giant Alligator was at a disadvantage, it was not severely injured. If this continued, even if Cui Yuan and his team managed to win, it would still take quite a bit of time.

”Let's go!” Han Chen did not have the intention to meddle in this matter.

”Wait.”

”Why?” Han Chen looked at him in astonishment, Yan Wu's beautiful eyes became focused, he looked around, and suddenly his attention landed on another direction. Han Chen looked over, only to see a swamp two hundred meters away, and there was a pitch black cave at the back of the swamp.
