Chapter 30: Breaking Through
Qi Jingshan has not changed like Jin Cheng. With the strength of the state, he could only carry the man named Liuzi on his shoulders and follow Jin Cheng towards the entrance of the cave.
After Jin Cheng, who was walking in front, came to the entrance of the cave, he first observed the situation in the cave.
The space in the cave is very large, more than three larger than the "fairy cave" he had been to, both of which have the same cave structure, and the location of this cave entrance is on the west side of the cave near the top of the corner.
The entrance of the cave is about 30 meters away from the bottom of the cave, and when you look down from above, the ground is densely crawled with all kinds of snakes, piled up together, tumbling up and down, colorful and disgusting. Although it was quite far away, the fishy smell emanating from the cave made the two people at the entrance of the cave feel that they could not breathe well and their chests were tight.
The light in the cave was dim, but it was much better than the situation in the general cave where you couldn't see your fingers, and Jin Cheng guessed that there might be other light sources. From the entrance of the cave, you can see that there is a stone platform four or five meters high on the other side of the cave, there is a lonely tree growing in the middle of the stone platform, the tree is just like Qi Jingshan described, more than three meters high, many branches, large and few leaves, three human-shaped green fruits are hung on the branches, the green fruits are shrouded in a faint halo, which is particularly conspicuous in the shade.
This is a jade Zen tree, Jin Cheng is almost sure, and his mood jumps with joy. The alchemy cheats given to Jin Cheng by the dragon carp have detailed records about various elixirs, and there are detailed descriptions of the appearance, habits, and fruit characteristics of the jade chan tree, and all the characteristics of the tree in front of him are in line.
Jin Cheng let go of his divine sense to explore the bottom of the cave, and near the Jade Zen Tree, there was indeed a guardian beast of the elixir, a giant python more than fifteen meters long.
There is a record in the cultivation realm that every elixir has a guardian beast, and this rule is still practical on today's earth, although the strength of this giant python is not very strong, and it cannot be compared with a BT-level monster like Dragon Carp, but it has already cultivated the Inner Dan, which is the characteristic of a first-level demon beast, and its cultivation is at least equivalent to the late stage of dark energy.
Jin Cheng took a closer look at this jade zen tree and found that the tree was at least four hundred years old, that is, this was the second time it had borne fruit. The second result was supposed to be six fruits, and now there are only three, which can only be explained as being eaten by this python, including the three fruits that first fruited two hundred years ago.
A stinky python actually ate six jade Zen fruits, it was really extravagant and wasted to the extreme, thinking of this, Jin Cheng was so angry that he couldn't wait to jump down and strangle it to death.
The python didn't know that it was being hated, and it was now hiding leisurely in the gap below the stone platform, where it was its territory, and no other snakes approached.
Such a giant python happened to be a suitable prey for the Dragon Slayer Gang, but it was a very troublesome thing for Jin Cheng, to get rid of such a monster, he was not confident, how could he get the Jade Zen Fruit if he didn't kill it?
Jin Cheng thought for a while, and decided to act at the opportunity after going down, to put it bluntly, he would seize the opportunity to steal, and if he stole it, he would run, and he really couldn't fight hard.
"Brother Qi, is your rope fifty meters long?" After understanding the situation in the cave, Jin Cheng first threw down the strong man he was carrying.
"Yes, about sixty meters." Qi Jingshan replied affirmatively, and lifted the six sons on his shoulders into the hole.
The two strong men fell from a high altitude into the hole and fell into the pile of meat, making two dull noises, they may not have died for a while, but they were soon overwhelmed by the snakes.
"Okay, you fix the rope in the tree, I'll get ready, and climb down immediately." Jin Cheng took out a towel, moistened it with water, and then covered his mouth and nose, he was worried that the air below was poisonous, so he took some precautions in advance.
Qi Jingshan's movements were fast, tying the end of the rope with the flying tiger's claws to the nearest tree, and then tying the other end to Jin Cheng's waist.
Jin Cheng smiled and didn't refuse, in fact, according to his strength, there was no need to take such a steady way of descending, he could completely grab the rope with his hands and slide down directly, but the people were kind, Jin Cheng couldn't refuse, so he had to go with him.
"Brother Jin, I'll call you that way in the future, be careful when you go down, don't be reluctant, safety first." Qi Jingshan said sincerely.
Jin Cheng could hear that Qi Jingshan was telling the truth, and he was still quite moved in his heart, he nodded at Qi Jingshan, "I'll be careful, Brother Qi, help pierce the torch." ”
Jin Cheng tied one torch by himself and handed the other one to Qi Jingshan, Qi Jingshan was no stranger to tying torches, and he was familiar with them according to Jin Cheng's requirements, and the most important thing was to tie up those snake-repellent Chinese herbs.
The two of them finished almost at the same time, Jin Cheng poured the gasoline he had prepared on the torches, and then lit one of them, and the unpleasant smell immediately spread, and Jin Cheng casually threw the lit torch into the cave.
Sticking another unlit torch in his backpack, he put on cotton gloves, held the rope in both hands, and jumped lightly down from the hole, quickly descending the rope.
The torch that was thrown down was still burning after it fell, and there was not a single snake in the five meters around the torch, and the snakes were still desperately retreating, which showed the power of these Chinese herbs. And the two strong men who were thrown down a few minutes ago are now gone.
Jin Cheng landed easily and without danger, he picked up the torch on the ground and headed in the direction of the Jade Zen Tree.
Along the way, the snakes avoided Jin Cheng like a flood beast, making a "sizzling" sound, and such a strange movement woke up the sleeping python.
It raised its upper half of the snake body, propped up its huge triangular flat head, and condescendingly locked on Jin Cheng, the intruder, and its entire body was like a bow ready to fire.
Jin Cheng didn't panic and continued to walk forward, at this time the distance between him and the giant python was more than thirty meters, which was not his best attack distance. His hidden weapon is the most lethal within twenty meters, so he needs to get close to the python and suddenly attack when the distance is right.
The giant python moved, only to see it bypass the high platform, swimming with a body as thick as a bucket, covered in scales, spitting out a long snake hyacinth, "snorting", quickly approaching Jin Cheng, and the other snakes on the ground retreated to both sides like a tide, flashing a road two or three meters wide.
Jin Cheng, who felt the danger, stopped, pulled out the firewood knife in his right hand, threw away the torch in his left hand, and with a movement of his mind, two iron nails came into his hands from the space ring.
Twenty meters.
Fifteen meters.
Jin Cheng raised his left hand, and the two iron nails drew two straight lines like meteors catching the moon, shooting towards the eyes of the giant python. Shooting a wild boar last night is also such a trick, first blind the other party's eyes, and then things will be easier to do.
Obviously, Jin Cheng took it for granted, how could a giant python whose strength was comparable to that of the late stage of dark energy be so easy to deal with. I saw that the giant python's head was lowered, and two iron nails flew over its scalp, its speed did not decrease, and it continued to approach Jin Cheng.
Secretly saying in his heart that it was not good, Jin Cheng did not retreat but advanced, with a wave of his left hand, a large handful of iron nails were thrown towards the head of the giant python, and then he held the handle of the knife with both hands and rushed over.
At this time, he can only fight, it is impossible to escape, this is the territory of the giant python, and there are tens of thousands of poisonous snakes on the side, he has no way to escape.
When the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, Jin Cheng knows this truth very well, since he dares to come down, he has already been mentally prepared.
The giant python was also at a loss in the face of such a dense attack with a hidden weapon, his body was in a state of sprinting and acceleration, and it was impossible to retreat, so he could only try his best to tilt his head back and use his body to block the attack of the hidden weapon.
Most of the iron nails were shot at the body of the python, and some of them hit its head, as if they were shot on a piece of iron, and there was a crisp and pleasant sound, "jingle bell", none of which could shoot into its scale armor, and they fell to the ground one after another.
The so-called indiscriminate punch to kill the master, Jin Cheng's attack like a net, there was still an iron nail that made a contribution, pierced into the python's left eye, blood flowed out of its eye socket, and the entire left eye became bloody and blurred.
The giant python was furious, opened its bloody mouth, and bit Jin Cheng who was rushing over.
