Chapter 36: The Lizard
The sun was setting, and in the midst of a dense forest, a teenager sat by a campfire in a clearing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info was holding an arm-thick iron rod in his hand, and on top of the iron rod was a wild boar weighing three hundred pounds, such a heavy thing seemed to be as light as nothing in the young man's hand.
This young man is none other than Lin Zheng, who left Jinyang City a few days ago because of the 'instructions' of the sect leader. But whether it is martial arts or cultivation, he has entered a bottleneck. In desperation, he had no choice but to set his sights here.
The Black Pine Mountains, a forbidden area for humans hundreds of miles away from Jinyang City. There are fierce beasts all over here, and the weakest first-order fierce beasts also have martial artist-level combat power. Only true martial arts powerhouses can survive in the mountains. It is rumored that in the deepest part of the mountain range, there is a fourth-order fierce beast that is enough to crush the Innate Martial Venerable. Fortunately, the fierce beasts in the mountains also have a strong sense of territory, and they will not leave their sphere of influence easily.
Of course, the place he was in now was only the outermost part of the Black Pine Mountain Range, and although Lin Zheng was quite confident in his strength, he was not indistinguishable from the heavy. He has seen a real fierce beast, not to mention that kind of power, even if he encounters it, he doesn't have the confidence to run away.
But even here, the beasts of the forest seem to be affected by the territory and are extremely aggressive. But such a beast became the target of his training.
Under the scorching of the campfire, the fat of the wild boar 'crackles' and drips from time to time, giving off an enticing aroma. The boy looked at the color of the barbecue, took out a paper bag from his arms, and sprinkled some powder on the wild boar, and the aroma suddenly became even stronger.
'Boom...' was heard in the distance with the sound of trees being sliced open.
Lin Zheng's ears moved slightly, and a smile appeared on his face. The roasted prey was thrown to the ground by him. The body is like an arrow from the string to the big tree not far away, and the person has jumped to the big tree after two 'rubs'.
After a few days of fighting with wild beasts in the mountains and forests, Lin Zheng was obviously quite familiar with this set of actions. As soon as it was hidden in the trees, a lizard-like head poked out of the bushes at the edge of the clearing.
Seeing that the 'prey' had completely appeared, Lin Zheng was shocked. The action that I wanted to pounce on was stopped, and even my breathing was deliberately slowed down.
'Lizard spider!'
A spider magnified countless times, the size of a millstone. The massive body had a lizard-like head, eight huge legs with sharp barbs, and dark brown scales. The long tongue is sometimes spit out and makes a 'hissing' sound.
The lizard is a dangerous beast with huge limbs that can easily tear apart tigers and leopards, and its fine scales allow it to defend itself in battle. Most importantly, it is a first-order beast.
When he saw each other, the young man cursed in his heart, he didn't expect that the spices he prepared were so 'tempting', and even the fierce beasts that rarely appeared on the outskirts of the mountain range were attracted.
The lizard walked up to the barbecue that Lin Zheng had dropped, sniffed the aroma of the barbecue, and its forked tongue kept flicking in the air.
At this moment, Lin Zheng had already had the idea of retreating. He did come here to improve his strength, but he didn't come to fight hard, he still had to avoid this powerful beast.
At this moment, the lizard's tongue quickly swallowed a few times in the air, and without warning, the lizard suddenly turned around.
'Not good. Seeing the lizard's movements, Lin Zheng's heart flashed with a warning call.
A finger-thick white silk spurted out of the lizard's massive buttocks.
The white silk was as fast as lightning and flew straight to the big tree where Lin Zheng was. Lin Zheng's eyes froze suddenly, and in an instant, he dodged and jumped off the tree. The white silk rubbed his body and wrapped it around the trunk of the tree, and the lizard's buttocks contracted, and with the help of the white silk, it flew towards the tree.
The lizard spider that flew in happened to pass by Lin Zheng, who had jumped off the tree, and two huge forelimbs attacked Lin Zheng with a gust of fishy wind.
In mid-air, Lin Zheng's waist suddenly exerted force, and he forcibly changed direction. But the barbs on the lizard's forelimbs still scratched a shallow scar on his face, and a few beads of blood flowed from the wound.
Lin Zheng landed, and the **** positions have been exchanged. The lizard spider stood on the tree, and a pair of blue and yellow lizard eyes looked down at the boy on the ground, as if looking at a prey that had already reached its mouth.
The boy wiped the blood from his face and held his stick to his chest. Looking at the cold eyes of the lizard, the young man's heart ignited with a raging battle intent.
If you want to kill me, you must first ask me about the iron rod in my hand.
Seeing that the boy was not frightened by himself, the lizard seemed quite annoyed. With a roar, he quickly pounced towards Lin Zheng. In the face of the attack of the lizard, Lin Zheng did not retreat but advanced, and smashed the belly of the lizard spider with a stick.
'Bump!'
The iron rod has the advantage of length and hits the opponent first. But the effect of the attack was surprisingly poor, and the boy felt that the iron rod was hit at the moment and most of the strength was removed by the fine scale armor on the lizard spider's body. What really hit the lizard spider is probably less than half of the power left.
It seems that he still underestimated the strength of the lizard spider. The name of the beast is not something that comes easily.
To no avail, Lin Zheng hurriedly flashed to his side. Fortunately, this stick is not completely useless, and the body of the lizard spider still shifts slightly. The two giant claws of the lizard spider grazed Lin Zheng's side, and the sleeves of the young man's clothes were suddenly cut open.
Before the boy could stand firm, the lizard had already pounced again. The two front paws that shone with cold light were like two giant scythes dancing out of a burst of light. The lizard spider moves less like a beast than a swordsman, and the two giant scythes are quite disciplined.
'Ding Ding Ding...
The iron rod and the giant claw struck each other, and there was a sound of gold and iron colliding. A man and a beast suddenly fought together.
At first, he was quite unfamiliar with fighting fierce beasts. But as time went by, Lin Zheng found that his comprehension of the stick method became more and more thorough. In the past, although he was proficient in using his sticks, he was always less agile. Even if there is a slight improvement after a few fights, it is not as rapid as the improvement between life and death.
Lin Zheng didn't notice it. In the past, although his stick technique was good, he always lacked a trace of real courage and killing. Even in the battle with the werewolf, although it is a life-and-death fight, it is more of an explosion of instinct, and there is very little improvement in the stick technique.
But in the current situation, the strength of the boy and the lizard spider are almost at the same level. Not only did he have a great breakthrough in the comprehension of stick moves, but because of the fight, the anger that erupted in his body also happened to be in line with the essence of the stick method of killing and subduing demons. The power of the stick method suddenly increased.
Although the lizard spider is not human, it is a fierce beast and is extremely sensitive to danger. The continuous improvement of the power of the young man's stick technique has made him a little afraid.
The lizard's two front paws slammed into attack twice, but when Lin Zheng parried, the lizard suddenly retreated. After turning around, the lizard body spewed out spider silk again, and an iron rod wrapped around the boy's chest. The lizard spider's body exerted its strength, apparently snatching the long stick from the boy's hand that posed the greatest threat to him.
This choice of the lizard spider cannot be said to be wrong, after all, no matter what type of fierce beast it is, it has an innate advantage over humans in terms of strength. But it doesn't know that the real strength of its opponent is precisely on top of its strength.
"Drink!" Facing the spider silk wrapped around the iron rod, Lin Zheng roared angrily, and the muscles all over his body swelled for three points.
One man and one beast can't hold each other.
The lizard was in a hurry, let out a roar, and exerted its strength again.
The sudden increase in the huge force on the spider silk made the boy's upper body shake slightly, and he hurriedly added strength.
The situation seems to be rebalanced. Lin Zheng had other plans in his heart, letting the opponent lead him by the nose had never been his style.
"Since you don't come, I'll go look for you. ā
Just when the lizard spider exerted its strength again, the boy dispersed his strength, and the whole person flew away with the spider silk.
"Die for me!"
