Chapter 43: The Snake Rides the Mist
The lonely moon sleeps peacefully among the stars. Look at the stars in the sky like the sea, and the moon like a hook. In that round of sparse shadows and oblique horizontal world, it seems that countless emptiness and loneliness are reflected in the sea of stars, and these quiets are made into flowers in the mirror and moons in the water. In this dreamlike world, everyone who seems to be sleeping peacefully is mixed in this emptiness, not knowing where the dream is and where the reality is.
In the mist-shrouded empty mountain valley below, there are hidden treasures that no one knows. Just like the 'Moon Pan Jade Immortal Zhi' that Lu Yang went to collect here, its immortality is very strange, and its divine effect is enough to be able to sustain life and restore souls, and its divine effect is enough to resurrect the dead. If it is taken by ordinary people, it can open the meridians, nourish the qi and blood of the whole body, and even increase the longevity for hundreds of years. Its effectiveness is far stronger than the 'Dream Fruit' that Lu Yang obtained before, and it is the only immortal grass that has been bred and reborn in this world.
However, this 'Moon Pan Jade Immortal Zhi' is not an easy thing to take. At this time, Lu Yang hid on the high cliff, for fear of being discovered by the 'hissing' strange snake that swallowed the letter, and in the palm of his hand, he couldn't help but ooze fine beads of sweat, and even his clothes were all caused by the fear brought by the 'Silver Moon Teng Snake' at this time, and he was unconsciously soaked.
This strange snake is seven or eight feet long, like a swimming dragon entrenched in the cave, its whole body is covered with heavy moonlight scale armor, and its body skin is like snow. The thick snake body made Lu Yang not even surprised that it was able to swallow a baby elephant in one bite, but seeing its triangular eyes shining with a cold cold light, it kept spitting out a sword-like snake letter, which made people tremble.
Now there is this 'Silver Moon Snake' guarding here, even if there are hundreds of people here, it is still impossible to get close to it. Just because this monster python absorbs the moonlight to improve its cultivation, it now has the level of the Xuantian Realm, and it is only one step away from being able to reach the Heavenly Realm, take off the demon body, and thus cultivate spiritual wisdom. By that time, he would have the cultivation talent of a human being, and even if he entered the legendary Heavenly Dao, it was unknown at all.
Throughout the ages, demon beasts are not like mortals, they have grown up to be monsters lacking spiritual intelligence, although some demon beasts can barely cultivate through their forms, but they will not be born with wisdom like humans. Only demon beasts that have cultivated to the level of the Heavenly Realm can open their spiritual intelligence, take off their demon bodies, and transform into human form. From this, it can be seen that a demon beast can cultivate to the Heavenly Realm, I don't know how difficult it is. There are countless demon beasts that can't escape their doom when they just start cultivating, and they become food for other demon beasts.
And a very few, like the Qingqiu Fox Clan, with the ancient desolate bloodline of the demons is different, they are born a powerful race, born with extraordinary spiritual intelligence, and cultivation is not very difficult, because of the bloodline, in the ancient Qingqiu Fox Clan, there are many people who have reached the level of the nine-tailed Heavenly Fox by virtue of their talent.
"No, I can't back down here, here, there must be some way for me to find out!"
The difficulties in front of him completely stimulated the fighting spirit in Lu Yang's heart, and he wanted to rise to the occasion and use his wisdom and ability to pass the test of this first level. However, what is the way to deal with this 'Silver Moon Snake' that is enough to defeat the powerhouse of the Xuantian Realm? You must know that Lu Yang has not opened up his dantian qi sea at this time, and the power of the Ziya Divine Stone in his body will no longer protect him in times of danger.
He looked around him, and there was only a short dagger that he used as a talisman and held it in his hand. In his pocket, there were only some fire knives and flints, a few pieces of dry food to quench hunger, and then there were some herbs he had collected along the way. The rest is nothing else. Looking at the 'Silver Moon Snake's pillar-thick body, there were layers of hard helmet-like scale armor, Lu Yang thought that with its defense, this short dagger was not enough to break through its armor-like protective scales.
And its strange power is enough to shake the sky, and it can fly through the fog, now Lu Yang wants to fight with him, but it is not realistic at all, Lu Yang seems that he can only take another strategy to win.
Lu Yang thought hard for a long time, but he could only shake his head sadly, he couldn't defeat this strange snake that was waiting here, on the cliff of this thousand abysses, if he was locked by this strange snake, he would have two wings on his back, and he would be in danger. This strange snake mistakenly took the light of the stars and moon refracted by the umbrella cover of the 'Yuepan Jade Immortal Zhi' for the bright moon on the horizon, and naively thought that he had come to the bright moon, and his stupidity of sitting in the well and watching the sky was even a little ridiculous.
"Yes, why didn't I think of it!" Suddenly, Lu Yang slapped his thigh, his heart became excited, he seemed to have caught something, it turned out that this strange snake was not enlightened, and mistakenly took the moonlight circulating on the 'Moon Pan Jade Immortal Zhi' for the real moon, and even some ridiculous stupidity. Then it follows that his spiritual wisdom must be extremely low. If Lu Yang can attract it away for the time being, then he can take the opportunity to pick the 'Moon Pan Jade Immortal Zhi', and then he can succeed!
However, how can we attract this strange snake to leave? Lu Yang pondered for a long time, and only then did he take out some purple, very inconspicuous rhizome-like herbs from his pocket, which he had picked by chance on the cliff before, and were called 'Guifu Wisteria'. This substance is generally not used for internal use in medicine, and if it is ignited and burned, it will produce an incomparable fresh fragrance. Originally, it was used to treat loss of appetite, a unique miracle thing, but at the moment, it was used by Lu Yang here.
Lu Yang took out some 'Guifu wisteria' and placed them on a secluded mountain cliff, putting them together in a pile for easy incineration. Painfully, he took out the extremely rare 'Huaimeng Fruit' that he had obtained with great difficulty, and put this fruit aside. Then he got up, took out the fire fold and made it burn, and then he threw it on the pile of herbs that had been placed long ago.
The flames rose and lit all the 'Guifu wisterias' from the bottom up. Suddenly, an indescribable fragrant smell spread along the mountain wind between the cliffs and spread to the surroundings.
The corners of Lu Yang's mouth twitched, his heart was dripping blood, he set up a series of games in order to let this strange snake be fooled, first use this fragrance to lure it here to check, lure it to swallow this Huaimeng fruit, and then use the power of medicine to let this brainless 'Silver Moon Teng Snake' sleep him for three days and three nights. Then, he will be able to take the Yuepan Jade Immortal Zhi in a grand manner.
In order to harvest the 'Yuepan Jade Immortal Zhi', Lu Yang was reluctant to let the child catch the wolf, and after some consideration, he could only use the effect of the 'Dream Fruit' to make him sleep. However, although Lu Yang was very painful and reluctant, he also understood that the role of the 'Moon Pan Jade Immortal Zhi' was far greater than that of the 'Huaimeng Fruit'. Thinking of this, his heart was balanced, and he hid himself in the side of the mountain wall that was not easy to find, carefully observing the situation of the strange python below.
The mountain wind fluttered, as if blowing a layer of purple light veil, and after a while, it floated to the cave below, the place where the strange snake was, I saw that it seemed to be extremely sensitive to this smell, like a huge body like a beam across the sea, circling and dancing outside the cave, its cold eyes swept in all directions, and the huge fangs were fiercely open outward, as if it wanted to swallow the unknown mist that approached it into its stomach.
It had been entrenched in the cave before, but this move even stirred up the clouds drifting between the cliffs, forming an astonishing whirlpool. In it, it perfectly interprets the beauty of strength and speed, the whole body is snow-white, and the body without a single flaw moves like a rabbit, like a dragon. This giant python is with the help of the cloud whirlpool, between the thousands of cliffs, with its head held high, its eyes turned its teeth, and it leaped up. The dance of the snake that moves like the wind is endless!
Lu Yang was in the dark, and he was only so shocked that half of his body was numb. Such a huge monster python, with scales like blades, and a majestic body several feet long churned between the sea of clouds, like a white rainbow running in the sky, extremely wild, carrying a roar of rage The wind rolled and fluttered.
When the fragrance hit, in the purple mist, he flew and coiled endlessly, and his huge body was in turmoil. Teng snake can fly in the clouds and mist, at this time, this means that his private domain is inviolable, this demon snake is spitting fog, Lu Yang is hanging on the cliff at this time, only by trying his best to hold on to the rock wall, can he resist the strong wind pressure from the body.
Gradually, the wind subsided. After it had been in turmoil for a quarter of an hour, the magnificent dance of the serpent also stopped, but when it saw the dense clouds accumulating between the valleys, it poked its hideous head down from the clouds, and the lantern was also like a cold snake pupil, staring at the burning 'Guifu Wisteria'.
It has found that there is no abnormality on the mountain wall, and the fragrance emitted by this 'Guifu wisteria' is something it has never smelled in its life, and what makes it feel even more strange is that in that fragrance, there is also a pearl fruit that flashes with colorful red light, looming in it, as if it is in that light, wrapped in a beautiful dream.
The 'Silver Moon Snake' seemed to enjoy the fragrance of the sky, it opened its mouth, and suddenly, a strong suction force swallowed all those 'Guifu Wisteria' into its belly, leaving only the beautiful pearl fruit.
Lu Yang was in a hurry, if he couldn't trick this strange python into swallowing the 'Dream Fruit', then the plan he prepared would only be in vain in the end. However, watching its next move, Lu Yang put his mind at ease, and stared at the movements of the giant snake between the hidden rock crevices on the side.
I saw it spit out an inch-long snake letter, and gently rolled up this 'Huaimeng Fruit', and under the moonlight, it coiled up a huge snake tail, raised its snake head, and looked up to the night sky. With his own qi veins, he constantly dragged this beautiful pearl fruit, and seemed to regard this pearl fruit as a pearl treasure, so as to swallow endlessly with the clouds.
