Chapter 798: An Unexpected Gain

Two hours passed, and Jiang Ning estimated that the temperature in the Xiaohan Array was about to drop to a limit, so he slowly opened his eyes, stood up, stopped resting, and slowly stepped into the range of the formation.

The temperature in the rainforest is very high during the day, but at night, it is actually quite cold, coupled with the cooling of Jiang Ning's small cold array, almost less than a quarter of an hour after the formation was opened, the python who was used to the temperature here already felt a little uncomfortable.

It's just that, after all, it's close to the existence of a demon beast and can even be called a demon beast, and this tolerance is still there, so I thought it was just a normal weather change, and I didn't care, and it was still wrapped around the trunk of a thick tree, resting quietly. During the day, after Jiang Ning escaped, it quickly clawed on other prey, and it was not hungry at this time, so it had no intention of going out to hunt.

After another half an hour, it gradually became a little uncomfortable.

The decrease in temperature not only slows down its movement, but also increases the consumption of energy in the body.

The cold-blooded snake is not suitable for night action, and without sunlight to regulate its body temperature, its mobility is already extremely limited, let alone at night when the temperature almost drops to freezing.

The serpent climbed down from the trunk of the tree almost instinctively, and its body swirled and twisted, moving in a certain direction under the tree.

Jiang Ning raised his eyebrows, "If you want to go back to your cave, how can it be so easy?"

Compared to when he attacked Jiang Ning during the day, right now, the speed at which the big snake crawled towards his cave was simply slow, Jiang Ning did not hesitate, seized the opportunity, directly picked up the Shen Yin long sword, and slashed towards the tail of the big python.

The python is very sensitive to the perception of heat, not to mention that in such a low temperature environment, there is such an obvious heat source as Jiang Ning.

It instinctively wanted to stay away from this human being when it was not in the best physical condition, but at the moment, its speed was too slow, and Jiang Ning's speed was obviously not the slightest bit lower than during the day.

The python, which already had some wisdom, knew very well that if he didn't solve the human in front of him, he would probably not be able to go back to the cave, so after crawling out of the ground for a distance, the python's tail twitched fiercely and whipped directly towards Jiang Ning's body.

For a moment, Jiang Ning even felt that maybe this python was not afraid of the cold, and his plan failed.

But after deftly dodging the python's attack, Jiang Ning found that its crawling speed seemed to have slowed down a bit.

Obviously, there is a price to be paid for such an act that goes against instinct.

While the python was running away, he continued to charge up and beat Jiang Ning with his snake tail one after another, but he was dexterously dodged.

It's not that Jiang Ning doesn't want to block directly with the sword, it's just that the force of the snake's tail whipping is too great, and it's not something he can withstand at the moment, so he really has to resist, but I'm afraid that the snake's tail will be broken, and he himself will be seriously injured.

At this juncture where it was urgent to rescue Dong Xun from the Lishan tribe, Jiang Ning didn't dare to let himself be injured.

Yiyi waited for the big python to toss for a while, and its endurance was not good, and it was still a little unable to support it after all, plus the roe deer that was eaten during the day was still in the stomach, and it could not be completely digested, which invisibly dragged down its action.

After all, he was chased by Jiang Ning, and a sword slashed on the tail, cutting a long wound.

"Cut," Jiang Ning couldn't help but sip, "With all your strength, you can't completely cut off this snake tail?"

For this feeling of suddenly falling from the clouds of the food chain, although he had experienced it many times, Jiang Ning still felt a little uncomfortable.

But there is nothing to do at the moment, I can only endure the discomfort in my heart, and one sword will come again, and three or four swords will come at the big python one after another, and then its tail will be cut off.

The pain stimulated the python's potential, and the surroundings were still cold, but the python's speed suddenly accelerated, and it crossed Jiang Ning's sword with a slick of smoke, and the front end had already drilled into his snake den.

Jiang Ning was also quick-eyed, and within an instant, he injected all the power in his body into the Shen Yin long sword, and used the method of throwing the hand sword to use the long sword as a bow and arrow, and shot it out, nailing the last piece of the snake body that had not yet penetrated into the snake cave to the ground outside the cave.

The python kept struggling, but it still couldn't get out of trouble.

Jiang Ning sat on the ground with a butt, just now, in order to let the long sword completely penetrate the snake body, Jiang Ning can be said to have used all his strength, at the moment his right arm hurts, the dantian is empty, I only feel that the whole person is a little out of strength, just sit there and gasp for a while, and wait until the python's struggle is a little weaker, then get up and carefully walk to the side of the snake's den.

The long sword piercing the snake's tail was not a fatal injury, and Jiang Ning didn't dare to be careless at all.

Moreover, once the python enters the snake cave, the structure of the scales on their bodies fits the snake hole, and it is difficult to directly drag the whole snake out, but if the heavy silver sword is rashly pulled, it will not be so easy for the big snake to get into the hole and then want to kill it.

Therefore, Jiang Ning did not rush to pull out the long sword on the snake's body, but found a relatively sharp wooden stick outside, and kept digging above it along the veins of the snake cave.

Digging the snake hole, the big snake will not be able to use the structure of the snake hole and the friction of the scales to resist the pull from behind, and in the meantime, Jiang Ning's plan to catch the snake can be said to be more than half successful.

It was another half hour or so, the sky was already slightly bright, Jiang Ning finally dug the snake hole, and in this process, the python that was constantly struggling in the snake cave was also exhausted, and there was no energy left to do anything else.

After the tail was broken, the loss of snake blood and the loss of life force made it extremely weak now, even so, Jiang Ning still did not let down his vigilance, and carefully controlled the seven-inch position of the snake's body, and then he was relieved to drag it out of the broken snake hole.

Pulled out the Shen Yin long sword, killed the big python, and finished it in one go, in the cold environment of the small cold array, Jiang Ning was stunned and sweated profusely.

"Wow, it's not easy!"

Looking at the huge python corpse in front of him, Jiang Ning wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smug smile.

After having cultivation, most of his battles are carried out under the condition of at least seven or eight layers of certainty, Jiang Ning does not like to participate in the kind of battle without victory, and now under such a disparity in strength, he barely killed the python, which still makes him quite happy, after all, unlike the previous Xia Keshang, this time to kill the python, even in terms of overall strength, he is completely at a disadvantage, relying on the wisdom of being a human being.

Gently snapped his fingers, the surrounding Xiao Han array formation immediately collapsed, Jiang Ning hummed a small tune, while using the Shen Yin long sword to cut open the belly of the big python, take out those useless things, and then, on the side of the stream, cleaned the snake gall bladder and the snake meat that had been cut into pieces, Jiang Ning took off the clothes on his body while making a fire to roast meat, and prepared to jump into the stream to wash the blood stains of the big python on his body and the smell of his own sweat.

When he turned around, the light of the morning sun fell through the cracks in the trees, and it shone on the snake cave that had been partially destroyed, and Jiang Ning's eyes were out of the corner of his eye, and he happened to see the bottom of the snake hole, a bunch of snake eggs the size of a fist!

The snake eggs of the python usually have a dozen to thirty or forty at a time, but this python is a demon beast-level existence after all, and there are not so many snake eggs produced, after completely destroying the snake den, Jiang Ning counted it, and there were only eight.

However, eight is already a lot for Jiang Ning at the moment.

The first day had passed, and because of the watchtower, it was difficult to enter the range of the Lishan tribe during the day, so Jiang Ning was not in a hurry at all, and after taking a bath, he devoured a meal of demon python meat, and immediately began to refine the essence element.

After all, the Wood Emperor Sutra is the Wood Emperor Sutra, and soon the refinement of the essence was completed, Jiang Ning repaired for a while, and immediately broke one of the snake eggs, sucking all the juice in it into his abdomen.

The snake eggs gathered the essence of the demon python, and the energy contained in it was several times more than the demon python meat, Jiang Ning's cultivation climbed like climbing a building under the continuous swallowing and refining, and in one day, it felt like three or four small realms, of course, eight snake eggs, and now, seven of them have also been consumed, but the snake meat of the big python has not been eaten because of too much.

The reason why he didn't eat the last snake egg was not because Jiang Ning wanted to leave an offspring for the big snake, but because in his perception, the embryo in the snake egg had been formed, and even if it was opened, there would be no more juice flowing out, at most there would be a little demon python that was not yet fully formed.

Jiang Ning didn't have any interest in cultivating demon beasts, not to mention, he also ate the unborn little python family, and after putting it back into the destroyed snake den, he didn't pay attention to it again.

It was getting late, and after some recuperation, Jiang Ning felt that his strength was much stronger than the most powerful one among the six people he had seen before, and he had more confidence in rescuing Dong Xun in his heart.

What's more, it turned out that his idea was very correct, and the bile in the snake gall of the demon python was indeed extremely good as a spiritual ink.

Consuming a talisman can at least escape thirty or forty zhang away, and then the cover of the night, the jump of the earth escape talisman paper above the space, coupled with Jiang Ning's own flexible skills and keen perception, it is much easier to avoid the detection of those people on the watchtower.

Facts have proved that these nearly two days of meticulous preparation are very necessary.

The protection of the Lishan tribe was much more thorough than Jiang Ning had imagined before.

In addition to the four tall watchtowers, there are several groups of people patrolling around the Lishan tribe during the day and night, and the gap between the patrol teams is pitiful, and it is almost impossible to seize that gap to sneak into the tribe.

"Such a tight defense, it doesn't look like it's defending against me, it seems that this Lishan tribe is often attacked by the Chiyuan tribe!" Jiang Ning muttered to himself.

Before Jiang Ning's words fell, there was a slight movement next to the exit of the valley not far away.

If it weren't for Jiang Ning's realm that had improved a lot during the day, he really wouldn't have noticed it at this time.

"Hehe!" Jiang Ning smiled softly, "I was still thinking about how to divert the tiger from the mountain, lure away a group of people, and then sneak in, now it's okay, the person who transferred the tiger came uninvited, but it saved me a lot of effort!"

With his eyesight, as long as he determined the location of those people, he could see their presence clearly, even at night.

Those people are all strong men, and they all have all kinds of weapons in their hands, obviously they are also coming for the Lishan tribe, Jiang Ning estimates that they are the opponents of the Lishan tribe nine times out of ten, the people of the Yuyuan tribe.

At night, people's mental strength, physical strength, and concentration cannot be maintained in a high state for a long time, so, in any case, the patrol team of the Lishan tribe has to go through at least one rotation at night, so this is an excellent gap.

Jiang Ning originally wanted to take advantage of this gap to break into the Lishan tribe, but now, since the people of the Yuyuan tribe want to sneak attack, it is naturally better, when they take turns to guard, the spirit of both sides is not very focused, and when the people of the Chiyuan tribe and the Lishan tribe fight, there will inevitably be a huge gap in the surrounding defense, and when the time comes, Jiang Ning can even swagger in, and he will not encounter too many obstacles.

This time, his judgment can be described as very accurate.

The people of the Yuyuan tribe thought the same as Jiang Ning, and they did not move, repairing in place for a long time, until the patrol team went back to rest, and when the team that came to rotate had not yet come out, they broke through the barrier set up by the tribe before, and unknowingly broke into the Lishan tribe.

There are a total of four teams patrolling the periphery of the Lishan tribe, and the killers of the Chiyuan tribe who are ambushed on the periphery of the tribe also happen to have four teams.

After those people broke in, Jiang Ning also followed behind and sneaked in.

These killers went in, nothing more than to kill, create chaos or steal something, for Jiang Ning, it was really an excellent cover, if he was about to be discovered, he could just use some means to draw the attention of those people of the Lishan tribe to the killers of the Chiyuan tribe, so that they thought that this was just an assassination from the opponent, so that no one would notice that there was a person who did not belong to the two forces, and broke into their tribe without knowing it.

Jiang Ning, who was accustomed to using spiritual power and spirit shadow to probe the surrounding situation, was a little confused for a while after entering the tribe.

The familiar means of perception could not be used, so when he first came in, he didn't know what to do.

Fortunately, he was indeed a smart enough person to calm down quickly.

The architectural pattern of the tribe is not as orderly as in the city, on the contrary, the wooden houses, stone houses, are very scattered and irregular.

Looking around, there were hundreds of large and small wooden houses, stone houses, and thousands of people, and the information he had gotten from those people in the process of chatting was too little, and after coming in, Jiang Ning didn't know where to start.

At the moment, there is only the stupidest way to check room by room.

At this time, above the central heights of the tribe, there was a messy roar and noisy sound in the group where those stone houses gathered, and Jiang Ning immediately knew that one of the people who broke into the Lishan tribe had already been discovered by others without having to take action themselves.

In a few moments, the sound of the horn resounded throughout the tribe.

The people who had been sleeping in the wooden and stone huts also woke up one by one, and the clothes of the boats, picked up the fellows, and rushed towards the high ground of the tribe.

At this moment, Jiang Ning, who was about to enter a nearby room to investigate, was forced out.

After a while, a fire lit up on the high ground of the tribe, and the people in the tribe were killing in that direction like a tide, while Jiang Ning hid on the roof and remained motionless, only waiting for those people to run out, and then returned to the road, jumped into the courtyard of a family, and patiently and quickly searched for Dong Xun's whereabouts.

It's stupid, but it's also a helpless move.

The sound of shouting and killing, extinguishing the fire, and the sound shook the sky, but Jiang Ning didn't care at all, he was still looking for it in an orderly manner, but he searched for twenty or thirty courtyards one after another, and there was still no gain.

Moreover, there are some courtyards, and there are women and children, and Jiang Ning does not dare to look for them too much, which makes his search progress a little slow.

When the people in those tribes are on the high ground, the team that the Yuyuan tribe is found will be dealt with soon, if you don't hurry up, it is likely that the people of the Chiyuan tribe have withdrawn, and he has not been able to find the person he is looking for, and at that time, the trouble will be big.

Just when Jiang Ning was about to leave one courtyard and go to the next courtyard to look for it, suddenly, a rush and slight footsteps came from outside the courtyard wall, and he immediately stopped his steps vigilantly, holding his breath, trying not to show the slightest flaw.

"Speed up, we're running out of time, before the other three teams of brothers die, we must find Purple Heart Amber!"

"Heh, sure enough!" Jiang Ning raised his eyebrows, "This Lishan tribe, it's easy to get in and hard to get out, the Chiyuan tribe has gone to such great lengths to send people in, it must be trying to find some precious treasure, it seems that this is what kind of purple heart amber." ”

Another voice faded away, but it still came into Jiang Ning's ears, "Hey, such a beautiful girl, she was actually locked in the pigsty in the east, she really doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, if it weren't for the task, catch her back and give it to the leader, we will definitely be able to get a big reward!"

"Less nonsense......"

"Bastard!" Jiang Ning, who heard this, couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth in his heart! He was looking in the house from beginning to end, and he really didn't expect that those guys would lock Dong Xun in such a place.
