Chapter Fifty-Six: The Blood Crystal Snake
The three high-grade magic weapons spent five hundred and ten points to exchange points in one go, which made Yan Xu sigh in his heart that the points were not enough, the points were earned quickly, and the points were used faster, so he had to hurry up and complete the main quest 'Straight Snake Den' to get the three hundred points in his hands.
Yan Xu took back the three magic weapons, took a few pills of 'Dihuang Pill' and sat down cross-legged to absorb the medicinal power, and after a few hours, the mana of his whole body returned to his peak state.
When pranayama mana, Yan Xu found that the wound on his chest was left by Yin Qi's several arrow lights, and the wound healed quickly, and now his body is not only amazingly powerful, but also has a very strong recovery ability, as long as it is not a wound that is pierced through the body for a few hours, it will be fine.
After adjusting his body, Yan Xu walked to the edge of the rock wall of the crypt, looked at the dozens of passages and intersections around him, and hesitated which way to go.
This is the lair of the Blood Crystal Baby Snakes, where they hatch and grow, and most of those casual cultivators are introduced to this place after using the space teleportation charm, which shows that this place must not be as simple as an intricate crypt.
After a moment of silence, Yan Xu walked to one of the passages, holding an auxiliary talisman 'Mingchen Talisman' in his hand, illuminating dozens of zhang ahead, and then walked in without hesitation.
The walls of the circular passage were flat and smooth, as if they had been cut out with a knife, and there was almost nothing on the ground except for a small amount of rubble and accumulated dust, and the entire passage meandered forward, so that it was impossible to see what was ahead at a glance.
Yan Xu held his breath and walked forward slowly, in addition to the sound of his own footsteps in the empty passage, there were occasional strange noises from a distance, like the roar of a beast and the shout of a human, because the distance was too far away and it was only a slight echo, and it was not very real.
After bypassing several corners, a faint light suddenly appeared in front of the passage, and a faint smell of blood came, Yan Xu slowed down his steps but his movements were extremely agile and quickly approached the exit of the passage.
Walking out of the passage, Yan Xu's eyes were greeted by an open space dozens of zhang wide, with unknown yellow crystalline rocks hanging down from the top, emitting a faint light to illuminate the space.
Below was a large crater with several gray-white shell-like objects remaining, and white bones scattered around them, most of which were stained with black blood and had already coagulated, and several of them seemed to have a few bright red stains, which did not seem to have coagulated for long.
Yan Xu frowned, and said in his heart: "This should be a hatching nest for young snakes." ”
There was no living creature in the snake pit, Yan Xu looked around the edge and found that there were several snake scales in the pit outside the white bones, which were estimated to be old scales after the young snake devoured the flesh and grew up.
The snake pit was connected to several passages, and the passage where Yan Xu was located was only one of them, and the rest of the passages must have hidden the Blood Crystal Baby Snake.
According to the Ancient Beast Books, the Bloodcrystal Hydra lays its eggs in several different snake pits, and these young snakes grow up to expand their range until they spread beyond the crypt in search of food.
Yan Xu circled around the snake pit, and after carefully surveying the traces at the entrances of several passages, he made a mark and chose one of the passages to continue to move forward.
Entering the passage, Yan Xu encountered several empty forks in the road, and several passages were divided into open spaces at each fork.
These passages meandered underground, like a huge labyrinth, and Yan Xu was very careful to mark them, so as not to get lost and lose his way halfway.
Along the way, Yan Xu found several corpses of monks, the death was so miserable that he could barely distinguish his original face, only the white bones of Sen Sen barely saw the human form, and only scattered flesh and blood hung on the white bones.
These monks may have encountered danger in the secret realm, and in a hurry, they tore open the spatial teleportation charm and were teleported here, or they were content to leave the secret realm after collecting enough spirit grass, ores, and spirit stones, but they were all sent here to die in the end.
The further he walked inside, Yan Xu found that there were more bones on the ground, and he couldn't help frowning even tighter.
At this time, there was a shout from the front, and Yan Xu hurriedly got up and leaned over quickly.
Fleeing the direction of the voice, Yan Xu turned a few forks, and the shouting became clearer and clearer. But with a scream that cracked the lungs, the shouting came to an abrupt end.
Yan Xu subconsciously slowed down, obviously shouting that the monk had died in Shekou just now, and rushing over at this time would undoubtedly only make him fall into passivity, so he cautiously continued to approach the past.
A small blood-red snake, about two feet long, with a three-finger-thick body wrapped around a monk and devouring flesh and blood, didn't seem to notice Yan Xu's arrival.
The monk's head was pierced through a hole, and the slender body of the blood-colored snake passed through it, wrapping down its neck, sucking flesh from between his chest and abdomen.
A large mass of flesh and blood was swallowed by the blood-colored snake and slid down the snake's body, squirming for a while and then becoming smaller at a visible speed, and finally disappeared completely and was completely absorbed and refined.
As the flesh and blood were absorbed by the blood-colored snake, the original two-foot-long snake body seemed to grow by a few inches, and the demonic beast aura emitted became more and more dangerous.
It's no wonder that the Imperial Beast Sect has harmed the Scattered Cultivation Pit here, according to this ability to absorb flesh and blood, the Blood Crystal Baby Snake can grow into a third-order demon beast very quickly.
Yan Xu took out the top-grade magic weapon Collapse Yue Sword and slowly approached the Blood Crystal Young Snake.
Sensing Yan Xu's approach, the head of the Blood Crystal Snake Snake rose from between the monk's chest and abdomen, and a pair of red eyes stared at Yan Xu, hissing as he swallowed the slender snake letter. The whole snake head is blood-red, I don't know if it is so bright red or dyed by the blood of the monks, giving people a sense of slaughter.
The eyes of the blood crystal young snake flashed like blood jade, and the snake body suddenly burst out, like a red light shooting towards Yan Xu.
Yan Xu didn't dare to slack off, and the Collapse Yue Sword immediately blocked to the left, and slapped the blood crystal young snake that burst out, and actually made a sound of comparing gold and iron, and then the blood crystal young snake was beaten to the rock wall next to it.
After the blood crystal young snake hit the rock wall, it quickly bounced without the slightest pause, and flew towards Yan Xu again, and the snake's mouth opened slightly to show its fangs, wanting to put Yan Xu to death.
Yan Xu was surprised that the small body of the Blood Crystal Young Snake was so hard, and it was able to collide with the Collapse Yue Sword without being injured at all, although it only hit the blade of the knife instead of the blade, but the sound of the gold and iron comparison just now was enough to show that the body of the Blood Crystal Young Snake was as hard as iron, far from being as soft as it looked.
There is not much time for Yan Xu to sigh, the Blood Crystal Baby Snake is not a loss of the ninety-seventh demon beast ranked in the Ancient Beast List, the Blood Crystal Baby Snake has exploded again, Yan Xu summoned the Yellow Dragon Ding to block in front of him.
Bang Dang! The crisp sound echoed in the open space, and the blood crystal young snake slammed into the Huanglongding without any chance, and fell to the ground by the Huanglongding's shock, the snake's head barely raised and shook left and right a few times, and fell violently and fainted.
Yan Xu leaned over cautiously, just wanting to take a closer look at whether the blood crystal young snake had really fainted, only to see that the blood-colored little snake suddenly raised its head and spewed out a red mist from between its tongues.
Fortunately, Yan Xu had already been on guard, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he hurriedly retreated, Rao was like this, and he was still contaminated with the red mist to the Huanglongding mana shield.
Swallowed by the red water mist, the originally thick mana shield was suddenly cut off a few inches, this is still Yan Xu saw the opportunity quickly, only a small part of it was contaminated, if it was wrapped in this red mist, I am afraid that the Huanglongding mana shield can be corroded by it.
Although the red mist was extremely powerful, it dissipated quickly, and Yan Xu did not hesitate to sacrifice the Collapse Yue Sword and slash at the Blood Crystal Infant Snake in the air.
Judging by the previous fight, Yan Xu was not worried that this sword would cut the Blood Crystal Snake into two pieces, and only by trapping the Blood Crystal Snake first could he have a chance to capture it alive.
The main quest 'Straight Smashing the Snake' completes the conditions, taming or killing the Blood Crystal Snake, Yan Xu plans that it is only possible to capture this demon beast alive.
For example, there is still a spirit beast slot in the Haozong Spirit Beast Garden today, if the Blood Crystal Baby Snake is caught back, it will be ranked ninety-seventh on the Ancient Beast List, plus the Spirit Beast Garden can promote the rapid growth of the Spirit Beast, I believe that the Blood Crystal Baby Snake can quickly become one of the biggest helpers of the sect.
