Chapter 10: The Nether Python
Due to a series of events that happened during the day, Chu Ge and Tang Xiaohu's residence seemed to have become a holy place in the eyes of the new disciples.
No one came to disturb him, and Chu Ge just settled quietly.
"Chu Ge, that, can I accompany you tomorrow?"
Tang Xiaohu hesitated for a long time before he asked tentatively at Chu Ge, who was meditating with his eyes closed.
Chu Ge opened his eyes, and there was a hint of doubt between his eyebrows.
"You didn't finish the first quenching, follow me to find death?"
Tang Xiaohu gritted his teeth, his face was full of seriousness, and he hurriedly said: "I have been studying medicine with my father since I was a child, and I asked the elder to enter the medicine hall this time. Although I can't help during the battle, that Zhang Tian is going to hurt you, and maybe I can treat your injuries at a critical moment. ”
"I can't see it, Xiaohu ......" Chu Ge looked Fantang Xiaohu up and down, and then asked with a smile: "Why do you want to help me?"
Tang Xiaohu replied seriously: "Because I think you are my friend." ”
Chu Ge was stunned, then patted him on the shoulder heavily, and laughed: "Xiaohu, if you can come back alive this time, I will invite you to drink!"
Tang Xiaohu's face flushed, and he replied with a slight clenching of his fists: "Okay!"
After the two of them finished speaking, they didn't choose to sleep, Tang Xiaohu secretly ran to the medicine hall, saying that he was preparing some medicinal materials that might be needed tomorrow. And Chu Ge came to the rocks of the cliff to comprehend the starlight, and it must be very dangerous to enter the back mountain, if he can complete the fourth quenching before this, then the certainty of killing Zhang Tian will definitely be a little more.
It's a pity that even with the help of meteor tears, quenching is still not so simple, or it has become more complicated. Others only need to find a ray of starlight that has been born into the world to introduce it into the body and refine the physique. But every time Chu Ge perceives the terrifying amount of starlight he finds, but no matter how much there is, the meteor tears all compress it into an extremely quintessential star element. It was as if the starlight had been filtered before entering the body, and the advantage of this was that Chu Ge would definitely surpass the cultivators of the same realm in terms of physique in terms of tempering the body realm, thus laying a solid foundation for the future. But the disadvantages are also obvious, and the speed of self-quenching will be much slower because of this.
"Huh...... It's still a little worse, and I'm afraid it will take some time for this fourth quenching. Chu Ge looked at the white belly of the fish on the horizon and couldn't help but sigh slightly. The whole night of meditating to attract the starlight not only did not make him feel tired, Chu Ge was in good spirits at this time, but at this time he really thought that his cultivation was too slow.
If other cultivators knew what he was thinking at this time, I was afraid that he would be so angry that he would vomit blood and die on the spot. Cultivation is a process of accumulation, and quenching the body is no exception, how can it be something that can be completed overnight by attracting the starlight quenching body? It is not simple to perceive those incarnate starlight from under the night sky, some people have not completed the quenching body four times even if it takes decades, you Chu Ge has only taken a few days to quench the body from the mortal body to the third layer of the body now?
When the sun rose, Tang Xiaohu waited for Chu Ge in front of the thatched hut with a basket on his back early, but he didn't have the spirit of Chu Ge, and the two thick dark circles under his eyes looked a little tired.
When Huang Shao came, Chu Ge was about to tell him about Tang Xiaohu, but Huang Shao waved his hand and said, "This kid was caught by me when he went to the medicine hall to steal medicine last night. ”
Tang Xiaohu's face flushed slightly, feeling very embarrassed.
Huang Shao said with a smile: "Don't take it as an example, just wait for you to follow us from a distance, don't let the people of Wutang know about your savings." ”
Tang Xiaohu nodded seriously, Chu Ge thought thoughtfully, thinking that Huang Shao was thoughtful, Xiaohu had no combat ability, if he really had an accident, Zhang Tian would definitely kill him, Huang Shao could escape, but Xiaohu could only be slaughtered.
"Let's go......"
The site of the Nebula Sect is located between the mountains, of course, this mountain is basically controlled by the Nebula Sect, but the so-called back mountain is different, the back mountain in everyone's mouth is actually called the Endless Mountain Range, this mountain range almost traverses the entire southern region, although there are countless heavenly treasures here, but there are also countless powerful demon beasts that are bloodthirsty and cruel. Not to mention these outer sect disciples, even the sect master did not dare to go deep into this mountain range, and after years of investigation by the Nebula Sect, the determined safe area was enough for the disciples of the sect to collect medicinal materials on the ground or for trials. Of course, the so-called safe area is not absolutely safe, there are still a lot of monster activities here, but these monsters are not too desperate, and the team that generally goes up the mountain to investigate can solve it.
But the Nether Python was an accident, the adult Nether Python was almost equivalent to a cultivator in the realm of the human Star Mansion, although it could not be compared to humans, but they did have a condensed star element in their bodies. There is no need to explain much about how strong the destructive power of that kind of thing is, if these little guys in the Quenching Body Realm encounter it alone, it will definitely be a dead word.
Generally speaking, human beings should be reluctant to provoke such powerful demon beasts, but the truth is often the opposite, instead of avoiding them, a small number of people look for them everywhere, because the demon beasts that condense the star element usually produce a coveted treasure in their bodies - demon pills.
Yuanba is here for this, one is to sell Zhang Tian's face, his cousin of the inner sect is not something he can provoke. Second, if he can use this to get rid of the present and future of the medicine hall, it will also be of great benefit to him.
Huang Peony is the present of the Medicine Hall, and that Chu Ge is the future of the Medicine Hall, and he is not the only one who wants to kill Chu Ge.
"You're all giving me a snack, you're almost there. ”
Yuanba shouted, and everyone in the martial hall hurriedly straightened their waists when they heard this, concentrating their energy.
Together with Chu Ge and Huang Shao, there are only eight people in the team, and among the people in the martial hall, except for Zhang Tian and Yuan Ba, the rest are disciples with two layers of quenching bodies. Although the cultivation of these people is not high, they are all extremely brave and good at fighting in the martial arts. Therefore, these people are naturally under Chu Ge's precautions.
As time passed, the group had entered a canyon where the air was extremely humid, apparently in the middle of the mountains, but surrounded by wetland plants.
"Don't look back, or you'll arouse their suspicions......"
Huang Shao knew that Chu Ge was worried about Tang Xiaohu, so he didn't say anything more, just stuffed a long knife into Chu Singer.
"Take it, this is for cutting demon beasts, of course, it can also be used to cut people when necessary. ”
"Look, it's a snakeskin, this should be the snakeskin of the Nether Python......"
I don't know who screamed, but everyone found that there was a pond at the end of the canyon, and the pond was surrounded by green vines, so the milky white snake skin was very eye-catching.
"This ...... Could it be a little too big......" Chu Ge looked at the snake skin that was several feet long, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Chu Ge, try to avoid the head of the Nether Python when you are ready to fight, if you are sprayed with cold air by that thing, you will suffer in the future. Huang Shao reminded him, and began to look around vigilantly.
Yuan Ba's broad palm kept rubbing against the snakeskin, and after a long time, he couldn't suppress his excitement and whispered: "That beast has just molted its skin, it must be around here, ...... Find it out, now is the time when it is at its weakest, you must take this opportunity to kill it!"
Chu Ge looked around, the Netherworld Python was dangerous, but the one who was most defensive in his heart was Zhang Tian. Since this person knew that he had the same cultivation as him, then he must have been prepared for something.
However, at this moment, a black shadow rushed out of the pond. Before everyone could react, after a piercing sound of breaking wind came out, the Yuan Ba actually flew upside down several feet away, and when his blood splashed on everyone's faces, these people suddenly woke up.
Under the blow, Yuan Ba was injured, although these brave disciples who were famous in the martial arts hall were almost completely demoralized after seeing this behemoth.
The appearance of the Nether Python is not much different from that of an ordinary python, except that it has two more bumps on its head, and it exudes a cold and intimidating aura all over its body. In fact, to deal with ordinary Nether Pythons, this squad with two quenching fourth-layer bodies is enough, but the surprise is that there seems to be more than one Nether Python here.
The complete snake skin in Yuan Ba's hand was only a few zhang long, but the Nether Python in front of a few people was also ten zhang in size.
"Stop me, we can't run away, if you don't want to die, pick up the weapon in your hand, if you get the demon pill, I promise to give each of you a hundred star yuan stones. ”
Yuan Ba stood up tremblingly, and there were still blood lines hanging from the corners of his mouth, but after all, how could a cultivator of the fourth layer of the quenching body lose his combat effectiveness so lightly. He stood behind everyone with a long knife, this posture was clearly a threat, those martial arts disciples knew the ruthlessness of Yuan Ba, how could they still have half the mind to run away at this moment, even if this Nether Python was powerful, it would have to be hard-headed.
The Nether Python held its huge head high, and when the snake letter spit out, the faint chill emitted by it made everyone even more vigilant. Although the strength of the Nether Python is not small, even if it is a cultivator of the second layer of the quenching body, if it is not hit by the vital point, it will not die lightly.
What is really dangerous is the netherworld breath it exhales, and if anyone accidentally inhales it, it will not be long before they are tortured to death.
"No matter what, we have to deal with this beast first. ”
Chu Ge nodded slightly, his lack of combat experience was also a good opportunity this time. After the two finished discussing, they raised their knives and ran towards the Nether Python. As the main person, Yuan Ba naturally didn't dare to be idle, if these people died, he would definitely not be able to live.
"Zheng ......" A disciple slashed at the tail of the Nether Python, but the sound of metal collision sounded. The knife did not cause any damage to the giant python, but it completely angered it, the Nether Python turned the snake's head, and two fangs as sharp as long swords were exposed to the air, although the disciple narrowly avoided it, but a black turbid gas spewed out of the snake's mouth spurted into his nose.
"Ahh
A terrible scream was heard, only to see that the man was already rolling on the ground, and his skin was constantly covered with ice scabs. Everyone was too busy to take care of it, but they were a little more careful when acting.
"Attack its belly, that's the beast's weakness!" Yuan Ba yelled, and he had already rushed forward.
