Volume 1: Kendo Hidden Dragon Chapter 5: Terrifying Demon Beasts
The trees in the back mountain are very tall and stretch out, blocking the daylight and still dusk in the daytime. Many dwarf plants grew on the ground, with sharp barbs on their branches.
On the path, many dead vines spread out, paving the entire road. From time to time, birds and beasts can be heard, and in this quiet mountain forest, it looks a little crazy.
Su Chen walked very carefully all the way, and he was deeply afraid. But the deeper he went, a hazy white mist began to appear in front of him, obscuring the scenery in front of him.
"This back mountain is really a dangerous place." Su Chen muttered quietly. The fog in front of him was so heavy that he had to put the Xuan Qi into his eyes in order to see the scene in front of him clearly.
There are fewer vines in front of them, but the strange rocks are sparse and scattered. Step by step, he walked up to those sharp rocks, and his feet were a little painful in those sharp places.
However, Su Chen was unconscious and faltered. After walking for a while, there was a flat road, with some strange flowers and plants growing on both sides, and the overall dark green color looked gloomy.
In this damp and lightless environment, this plant can be found everywhere. And on this plant, there are many reptiles attached to them, and they have terrifying sharp horns.
"Herb Eater!" Su Chen said softly in surprise.
The herb-eating insect is a poisonous insect that often rises on dead grass and feeds on it, with strong fecundity. People who are bitten by herbivogers will have ulcerated and swollen skin, and will be unusually nauseous and uncomfortable.
In the back mountains, you can still encounter this poisonous insect. Su Chen's heart trembled, thinking that it was better to run quickly, and there should be no grass eaters on the side of the cliff.
He tiptoed through quickly, his steps were light and cautious, for fear of alarming the herb-eating insects, and coming to bite him in groups, even if he didn't die, it was estimated that his whole body would ulcerate, and he would have no face to see.
After about a stick of incense, Su Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, touched his forehead, and found that his forehead was full of fine beads of sweat, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The pressure is really a bit big, no wonder so many disciples are reluctant to take on the task of "collecting medicine in the back mountain", just eat the terrifying poisonous insect of grass insects, and a few people dare to come, maybe they will be stung into a honeycomb.
Getting rid of the pressure of the herb eating insects, Su Chen looked up and saw that there was a broken wall and overgrown with weeds. There are many glittering herbs swaying among the weeds.
"It's finally here, cliffs." Su Chen was overjoyed, there must be no cliffs left here. He walked to the cliff and looked, and below was a vast cloud and mist, and the cold wind was blowing, which was terrifying.
Su Chen took a step back and did not linger at the mouth of the cliff. He looked around, looking for flowers and grasses. He hadn't forgotten what the purpose of coming here was, the sooner he finished, the sooner he could go back to cultivating.
In my memory, the flower spirit grass should be a grass plant that grows at the mouth of a cliff and has three pink petals. It should be especially recognizable in this dark green grass group.
He walked left and right, and after carefully observing for a while, he didn't see the figure of Hua Lingcao, and he couldn't help but be a little irritable.
"There should be a lot of flowers and spirit grasses in the back mountain, why haven't you seen a single one, is it because you are looking in the wrong direction?" Su Chen muttered to himself, a little depressed.
He stood still for a moment, and continued to search the edge of the cliff. In the sea of dark green grass in the eyes, there was no figure of Hua Lingcao, and I couldn't help but prepare to rest in place.
"Huh? In there. At the moment when Su Chen stopped, he suddenly found that on the cliff ten zhang away, there was an unusually strong plant with three-petal rosette on the side.
Flower spirit grass.
"Yes, I found a big guy in this search." Su Chen hurriedly stepped forward, looked at the flowers and grass growing on the side wall, and couldn't help but sigh. There are really a lot of flowers and spirit grasses in size.
The grass stem is three fingers thick and five feet long, which is much larger than the size of the flower spirit grass recorded in the ancient books, and it is definitely a first-class flower spirit grass. It really didn't take much effort to get it.
Su Chen was overjoyed, so he was about to lean over to pick flowers and spirit grass. But I felt the ground under my feet shake, and it shook a little. Su Chen's heart was shocked, it won't collapse, right?
He quickly got up and retreated, still a little nervous in his heart. If it really collapses, he will fall down the cliff, and it is estimated that he will die directly.
"Roar!"
As he stared carefully at the place where he had been standing, a beastly cry came from nowhere, shaking the branches and leaves of the towering giant trees around him.
"Demon beast!" Two words flashed in Su Chen's mind, this kind of roar is definitely a demon beast, and this demon beast is estimated to be not weak, otherwise a roar would not be so imposing.
Just as he was looking for the location where the roar came from, the mouth of the cliff where he was standing suddenly came out with the sound of the rock wall cracking. At this moment, a five-zhang wide crack tore open.
The broken corpses flew down, but there was a gray-black figure in the rubble, slowly standing up, gray-haired and silver-horned, resembling a tiger and a wolf, with a huge body and terrifying eyes.
The strange thing is that on its silver horn, there is a flower spirit grass.
"Silverhorn Tiger! This flower spirit grass actually grows on the horn of the silver horn tiger! Didn't I just stand on the Silverhorn Tiger? The corners of Su Chen's eyes twitched, and the tips of his eyebrows tightened, he actually encountered this situation.
The Silver Horned Tiger is a common demon beast with low intelligence, great strength, and extreme ferocity. Looking at the silver-horned tiger in front of him, it is estimated that it is similar to an ordinary martial artist of the fourth and fifth grades of the pure body realm.
"What bad luck!" Su Chen had a little headache, this flower spirit grass grew on the head of the silver-horned tiger, and there were only two ways to get it. Either you take it by surprise and run away, or you can solve the silver-horned tiger.
Seeing that the silver-horned tiger did not move, it seemed that it had just woken up from a deep sleep and had not yet regained consciousness.
Su Chen pondered for a while and took out the Xuanling Sword from the storage bag. He didn't plan to finish running by surprise, that would be too boring, it would be better to have two tricks with this monster.
He held the Xuanling Sword in his hand and waited for it. And the silver-horned tiger also regained consciousness and sniffed the air around him, which was mixed with the smell of the living.
The silver-horned tiger turned its huge head, its huge eyes locked on Su Chen, and it was still glowing red, it must have been a long time since he had eaten human flesh, and he was a little hungry.
"Roar!" Seeing the long-lost living person, the silver-horned tiger let out a roar. The huge head shook and rushed towards Su Chen. With every step you take, the ground shakes.
"It's a bit of a problem, this guy! This impact is a bit scary! Looking at the huge body of the silver-horned tiger, Su Chen didn't even think about it, and ran directly to the side for dozens of steps.
If he was hit by this guy, then he would probably die directly.
Seeing Su Chen dodge, the silver-horned tiger was extremely angry, turned around, and ran wildly in the direction where Su Chen was standing. The flowers and grass above their heads swayed as they ran.
"Really, I'm a bully?" Su Chen clenched the Xuanling Sword, roared, and rushed directly towards the Silver Horned Tiger. At this moment, he is like a sharp blade out of the sheath, with cold light and horizontal.
