Chapter 9: Slashing the Snakes

Zishang scrambled out of the fairy hole, but dozens of water snakes were followed behind him, and more snakes were constantly emerging in the pit he dug. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Damn!"

Zishang scolded, because of the narrow tunnel, he could already play the "Wind Willow Sword Technique" to his heart's content, without saying a word, a range of sword moves "Weak Willow Fufeng" threw over, instantly strangled thirty or forty arrogant water snakes.

However, Zishang did not press towards the entrance of the cave because of this, the vitality of the snake is already very strong, not to mention that these snakes have lived in the spiritual spring for a long time, and their vitality is far beyond that of ordinary snakes. Although most of the snake's head has been cut off, the snake's head can still bite him.

Zishang defended carefully, and the black oppressive group of snakes rushed over desperately, although they couldn't break through the defense of Zishang, but Zishang still took the initiative to retreat and not fight with them.

After cutting more than four or five hundred, the snakes that emerged from the hole gradually decreased, but their body size became stronger and stronger, and even more than ten pythons appeared, which were extremely powerful, and their wisdom and combat effectiveness were far beyond those of ordinary water snakes.

Due to the participation of the python in the battle, coupled with the interference of the small snake, the sub-merchant had to choose to retreat.

However, before retreating, he took out something from his arms, which was an eight-inch long special bamboo tube, which was the "secret weapon" or "hole card" that Zishang's father had given him.

The mountains where Shigu Village is located are not as safe as imagined, and there is no shortage of demon beasts and birds of prey, the "reclamation team" sent by Emperor Wending to secretly build Shigu Village back then has even found [Xuan Demon Beasts] comparable to the peak of the Qi Refining Realm in this mountainous area.

Although there are very few now, they still exist! For the safety of his only son, Ziyun gave him this "hole card".

Don't underestimate this small thing, after it explodes, it will produce ultrasonic waves with an extremely high frequency, which is an extremely strong threat to most middle and high-level demon beasts.

However, due to the very high frequency of sound waves, the human ear cannot hear them, but they can also feel uncomfortable all over the body.

The child uses flint to light the fuse in front of the bamboo tube and throws it into the tunnel. With just one breath, the bamboo tube exploded.

There was no violent bang, only the sound of bamboo exploding and splashing, and then a strong ultrasonic wave exploded, and the dust in the air trembled with this sound wave, and Zishang also felt a headache.

And the dense snake on the ground seemed to be greatly tortured, writhing its body hysterically, and at the same time opening its mouth wide and letting out a piercing scream.

The sound waves lasted for about three breaths, and when the sound waves stopped, all the snakes on the ground were all scattered and killed, and none of them were spared.

Even the tunnels were filled with a fair amount of dead snakes. Zishang hesitated to go into the cave to take a look, and at this moment, a miserable, terrible scream came from the depths of the cave!

"Huh?"

Zishang frowned, and the hiss made him feel extremely threatened.

"Could it be...... Snake King?"

In the blink of an eye, another batch of snakes poured out of the cave, but there were fewer of them, and they were all large and extremely vigorous.

Although the snakes were not shocked to death, they were still severely injured by the sound waves before. One by one, they seem crazy and dying, but most of them are confused and can't find the north.

Feeling that the [Xuan Demon Beast] level snake king might be about to run out, Zishang no longer stayed, and ran away.

But instead of running down the mountain, he went straight to the top.

Those big pythons are still a little smart, if they run down the mountain, they may not be able to outrun these nimble and agile snakes.

Zishang killed a large number of their kind, how could they give up and follow behind Zishang and chase after them. Zishang didn't look back, he was racing all the way, and probably guessed that those cold-blooded snakes were not far behind him, and he began to circle Shigu Mountain, spiraling upward.

He crossed the mountains of trees and the sea of forests;

It also passes through the bushes, grasses, and rocks......

After running for about a quarter of an hour, Zishang looked back and saw that there was no trace of the snakes, so he breathed a sigh of relief, continued to lower his body, and moved towards the top of the mountain.

"Huhu~"

Boom!

Zishang finally climbed to the top of the mountain, collapsed to the ground, breathed heavily, sweat wet his clothes, and his face was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, until the sweat flowed into his eyes, he raised his hand with difficulty to wipe it.

"Finally...... It's safe...... I'm tired of my master......"

"Zizi~"

Spit letters!

Zishang was excited, turned over and jumped up from the ground, looked around, and saw that thirty zhang away, a super python nine zhang long and as thick as a water tank was staring at Zishang, constantly spitting letters, his eyes were full of resentment and anger!

Strangely, this snake is very different from ordinary snakes, its scales have a metallic sheen, and it looks very hard. It has some simple white patterns on its neck, some blue lines engraved on its back, its chest is ochre, and there are hard fleshy spines on the tip of its tail, and on the upper eyebrows of its eyes, there are protruding pieces of flesh that cross between the eyes.

What surprised Zishang the most was that this super giant snake actually had two claws more than a foot long!

However, the pair of claws were very thin, almost skinny and bone, and they hung down on the front half of its body without strength.

Zishang's mind thought quickly, trying to guess the strangeness of the "snake" in front of him.

"It's ...... Jiao!"

Suddenly, Zishang thought of the description of "Jiao" in "Records of Ancient and Modern Strange Beasts", which was very similar to the strange "giant snake" in front of him.

In the blink of an eye, Zishang's brain calculated a possibility: this super giant snake is the snake king of the snake group, they have been entrenched in the spiritual spring for many years, and the snake king has mutated and evolved due to the rich spiritual energy nourishment and some other reasons, and is developing in the direction of "Jiao".

However, it may be that Zi Shang suddenly appeared and played his hole cards, and the violent sound waves disturbed it, causing it to fail to evolve and eventually become a "snake Jiao".

Zishang looked this "snake Jiao" up and down, although it was full of anger and resentment at this time, the tiredness in its eyes was easily noticed by Zishang.

However, even if this "Snake Jiao" was greatly injured at this time, Zishang was not its opponent, after all, this "Snake Jiao" had the strength of the peak of the Qi Refining Realm in its heyday!

Zishang clenched the soft sword in his hand, and his nervous forehead was slightly sweaty.

"Ahh

He let out a loud shout, and threw his soft sword with all his might, and at the same time kicked the ground with both feet, flying backwards.

"Snake Jiao" flashed in his eyes, his steely tail twitched, and he directly slapped the soft sword away, at this time Zishang had already jumped off the top of the mountain, and every time he landed, he kicked the ground with all his might, and rushed down with gravity.

However, the slopes are not flat, and the variety of stones of various sizes is very difficult to climb. Every time the merchant lands, he will "blow up" a pile of stones.

The movement of the "snake Jiao" is much simpler, the demonic energy is contained, the snake body twists extremely fast, and it slides down from the top of the mountain, and catches up with Zishang between four or five breaths.

At this time, Zishang's situation was very critical, his sidearm soft sword had been thrown out, and his hole cards had been used, and his speed was not at all comparable to the "Snake Jiao" comparable to the high-level Qi Refining Realm.

"Whew~Whew~"

Zishang breathed heavily, his face was so gloomy that it seemed to drip water, and he couldn't think of a way to escape.

"Could it be...... Am I just dead!" Zishang anxiously looked around, looking for obstacles to dodge and detour.

Then he saw a large scattered stone and a bush full of spikes.

Zishang couldn't help but rejoice, maybe this is an opportunity to alleviate or even get out of the crisis. He mobilized all the strength he had and rushed there at an accelerated pace.

However, misfortune happened......

Several black shadows rushed out from the side, blocking Zishang's progress, and it was several "generals" of the "Snake Jiao".

These giant snakes were very hideous, and it was obvious that the sound waves had disturbed their minds, and the belief in protecting the snake king had made them crazy.

There are several giant snakes blocking the road in front, and there is a mysterious demon beast "Snake Jiao" in the back!

"There is no way to go to the sky, and there is no way to enter the earth!" Zishang was suddenly discouraged and sad.

"Alas!" he lamented, smiling wryly and shaking his head.

"呲呲~"

The giant snakes stared at Zishang and slowly approached him, and "Snake Jiao" looked at the disheartened Zishang and spat out the snake letter viciously.

When the "snake Jiao" came to Zishang's body three zhang, it quickly raised the snake's body, opened its bloody mouth, and bit at Zishang.

For the first time since he was born, Zishang felt the danger of death, and he felt that time was passing very slowly, and he could clearly see the sharp fangs of the "Snake Jiao", and the corners of its eyes were cracked, full of resentment.

"The feeling of death...... Is that it?" Zishang thought to himself.

Tears flowed silently from the corners of his eyes, and he thought a lot at this moment: his parents who were gradually middle-aged and still trying to revive Dashang, Zili and Zilong, who were chic and hardworking on weekdays, and innocent teenagers who played with him......

"I'm less than nine years old, I haven't caught up with Brother Zilong, I haven't broken through the Refining God Realm, and I haven't led my clan to revitalize the Great Business ......"

"Hmph, ridiculous, I'm only eight years old, and I can't even beat a "snake Jiao" who has failed to evolve in these things, and I still want to revive Dashang? Alas~"

The bloody mouth of the "Snake Jiao" had already pounced in front of Zishang, and Zishang even felt the bloody breath in its mouth.

"It's over......"

Zishang closed his eyes in pain, ready to accept death......

"Click!"

A dazzling flash of light flashed, accompanied by a thunderclap.

An arm-thick thunderbolt slashed down from the air, hitting the "snake Jiao" in front of the Zhongzi Shang. It was hit in the head by this thunderbolt on a sunny day, and it was instantly cooked.

The distance of this inexplicable lightning ion quotient was also very close, and even he felt numb all over his body, but his consciousness was still quite clear and he was not hurt much.

Before Zishang could react, two more thunderbolts fell.

One fell behind him, and after the lightning fell, it exploded slightly on the ground, and several giant snakes nearby were hit, all killed.

The other one falls in the distance, looking at the direction and distance, it seems to be the location of the fairy cave......

After the Zishang who was affected by the lightning returned to normal, he looked at the scorched snake Jiao in front of him, and several giant snakes that died violently behind him, and suddenly felt that this world was so unreal.

It's unimaginable that before the tea work, he was still facing a life and death crisis, and in the blink of an eye, he miraculously turned the danger into a disaster.

"Huh?" Zishang got up from the ground and suddenly found that on the scorched head of the "Snake Jiao", there was a solid blood bead the size of a broad bean, and it was still flashing with a trace of electric light.

"It's ......"

Zishang frowned, he was very puzzled by this blood bead, this thing is similar to the inner pill of high-level Xuan Demon Beast and Earth Demon Beast, but this "Snake Jiao" can only be regarded as a middle-level Xuan Demon Beast, only the strength of the peak of the Qi Refining Realm, how can there be such a strange treasure as "Neidan"?

After thinking about it for a while, he probably guessed the reason, this snake king absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy in the spiritual spring, and produced mutations, or evolutions.

If there is no Zi Shang, this snake king is likely to evolve into a "Jiao"!

"Jiao" is a top-level demon beast, and there is even a trace of the possibility of evolving into a divine beast "Dragon"!

So it's normal for this kind of thing to look like Neidan.

This blood bead is the essence of the "Snake Jiao", if it is cultivated into an elixir, it will even be of great benefit to the peak of qi refining!

Zishang put away the inner pill, the prototype of the "Snake Jiao", looked at the corpse of the "Snake Jiao" and the giant snake, and fell into deep thought.

These are all rare medicinal materials, especially the "snake Jiao", in addition to the rudimentary inner pill, the rest of the body is also very valuable. It's a pity if it's buried, but it's embarrassing if you take it back and it's unrealistic......

Fortunately, Zishang was still relatively witty, and after a short period of thought, he thought of a reasonable solution.

So he went back to the fairy cave, and to his surprise, all the snakes here were not electrocuted......

Zishang faintly noticed that this incident didn't seem to be a coincidence, but he didn't think much about it, not because the plot needed it, but because he knew that there were some things that he couldn't touch, and no matter how much he guessed, it was just a fantasy and meaningless.

But he secretly wrote down this matter, and when he became stronger, he would definitely find out about it......
