Chapter 21: Snake Gall (Ask for Recommendation, Ask for Collection)
After Hong Ze entered the secret realm of yellow sand, what appeared in front of him was a desolate Gobi Desert.
The wind rolled up the yellow sand and blew on his face, making it difficult to breathe, so Hong Ze took out a cloth towel and covered his face.
Hong Ze walked through the desert and met a lot of strange-shaped monsters, including camel monsters, ant monsters, fox monsters, and cactus monsters, most of which were half-human and half-beast forms, and he also saw some Yunyao Sect disciples rounding up and hunting, but Hong Ze's target was the sand snake demon, other monsters, and he was not interested in hunting.
The sand snake demon seems to be rare, and Hong Ze has been walking through the desert for a long time, and he has not seen a single one.
Hong Ze stood on top of a bare mountain cliff and looked around, looking for the target he needed.
"Help—"
Suddenly, there was a cry for help from under the cliff.
Hong Ze looked down and saw a giant snake chasing after three disciples of the Famous Yunyao Sect.
The giant snake was huge, its body as thick as a bucket, nearly twenty meters long, its head as huge as a basin, and its mouth spitting scarlet snake letters, and it was swimming quickly.
The three disciples who were being chased were obviously no match for this huge snake demon.
"Sand Snake Demon!"
Hong Ze was overjoyed and finally found one.
Immediately, Hong Ze flew down, and the Soul Devouring Crazy Knife was already in his hand.
Hong Ze's eyes were full of fiery light, looking at the giant snake, as if he saw a turquoise snake gall trembling in front of his eyes, as for this giant snake, he didn't pay attention to it at all, no matter what kind of snake it was, in his eyes, it was a matter of a knife.
strength, which brings him infinite self-confidence.
In a secret realm like this, in addition to the Demon King, other demon beasts, Hong Ze didn't care about them at all.
Hong Ze's attention was on this snake demon. But he didn't notice that behind his right, there was a white figure, which was also running towards the snake demon at a very fast speed.
Hong Ze crossed over the head of the snake demon and slashed at the position between the head and neck of the snake demon.
Another white figure held a long sword and slashed at the snake's seven inches.
The giant snake was caught between two people, and suddenly whimpered.
Only then did Hong Ze notice the white figure, and couldn't help but look at him (her), this figure was silent, so that Hong Ze didn't notice his (her) existence just now.
I saw that the person was dressed in white, wearing a hat, the edge of the hat was surrounded by a light veil, and the white scarf was masked, so I couldn't see her appearance, but I should be a woman.
The woman in white also looked at Hong Ze, who was dressed in a pale yellow robe and also covered with a mask on his face.
"The spirit crystal belongs to you, and the snake gall belongs to me. The woman in white suddenly spoke.
It turned out that she was also here for snake gall.
In the secret realm, whoever kills the demon beast, the spoils belong to whomever it is, this is the default rule in the secret realm, and this snake demon was killed by the two of them together.
"Sorry, I need snake gall too. Hong Ze said unceremoniously.
"I will give you a thousand taels of silver, and the gall of the serpent shall be mine. The voice of the woman in white came coldly, and her tone did not back down in the slightest.
"I will give you ten thousand taels of silver, and the gall of the snake shall be mine. Hong Ze replied.
Is Hong Ze short of money? What he has is money.
The woman in white shook the sword in her hand, and the air around her seemed to suddenly cool.
Hong Ze stroked the knife in his hand, and a trace of murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
Since they are unwilling to back down, they can only fight.
Both of them moved at the same time.
The swords touched, and in an instant, the flames were shining, and the two of them were inseparable, and the three rescued disciples of the Yunyao Sect saw the two fighting, and hurriedly hid far away.
The sword of the woman in white was shrouded in a layer of frost, exuding an icy aura, this was a spirit sword, and it had an ice attribute.
Even in this hot desert, Hong Ze could feel a chill coming, and thin snowflakes were faintly floating in the air.
The swordsmanship of this woman in white seems to be as soft as snow, but it is as powerful as an ice edge.
"Drifting Snow Sword Technique?"
Hong Ze recognized this sword technique at a glance, this was the stunt of the second elder and the third elder of the Yunyao Sect, this woman was either a disciple of the second elder or a disciple of the third elder.
These days, Hong Ze has seen many people perform this kind of swordsmanship, but their swordsmanship only has ordinary moves, but it can't cool the surrounding air like this woman.
This woman is really extraordinary.
After a period of confrontation, Hong Ze could be sure that her cultivation was at least above that of an eight-star martial artist.
Hong Ze is now a seven-star martial artist, and after eating the spiritual food, his skill has increased by 15%, and in terms of strength, Hong Ze will not lose to any eight-star martial artist.
But this woman is an exception, her skills are extremely profound, and every time Hong Ze fights with her sword, his arm will feel numb.
And this woman's swordsmanship is also extremely exquisite, and Hong Ze was completely suppressed.
'I met a master today. ’
Hong Ze suddenly felt a kind of pressure in his heart.
However, Hong Ze will not easily admit defeat.
What are the characteristics of the Wind Knife Technique? Of course, it is fast, and in terms of the speed of the moves, among his peers, there is no one who can compare to Hong Ze.
Immediately, Hong Ze adopted the tactics of avoiding the real and attacking the false, avoiding hard encounters with her, and using the speed of the knife technique to attack the gap in her sword moves, which he learned from Liu Changyun.
This style of play is really effective, forcing the woman in white to switch from offense to defense.
However, even so, Hong Ze could not defeat this woman in white.
Hong Ze's speed is extremely physical exertion, and the buff effect of Spirit Food also has a time limit.
And the woman in white turned from offense to defense, but it was a way of playing with ease and waiting for work, just waiting for Hong Ze to run out of physical strength, she seemed to see at a glance that Hong Ze's knife, although fast, could not last.
And that's exactly what happened.
Hong Ze has always used a quick and quick way to play, and the woman in front of him is obviously not something that can be defeated in a short period of time, and if she continues to fight, Hong Ze will definitely lose.
Although Hong Ze had spiritual food and spiritual water to restore his physical strength, he could not use it at all in this tense moment of battle.
Hong Ze couldn't attack for a long time, and he already felt physically exhausted.
"Don't you still admit defeat, you're not my opponent. The woman in white spoke, listening to her, her breath was smooth, and she still seemed to have enough strength.
Hong Ze couldn't help but feel a little admiration in her heart, after fighting for so long, her physical strength was not consumed much.
Today looks like we're going to lose. ’
This thought flashed through Hong Ze's heart.
However, the thought quickly faded.
Hong Ze still has a killer weapon that has not been used.
And suddenly—
Hong Ze's whole body was full of red light, his eyes were shining scarlet, and his face became hideous.
Instantly increases your power by 100%.
Hong Ze used a "back water charm".
This is a prop shaken out of the system a few days ago, which instantly increases the power by 100% for 10 seconds, but after use, the body will be in a weak state, and it can be used as a blow to the backwater, so it is called the "backwater charm".
Hong Ze's body was filled with bursts of sword light, and the Soul Devouring Crazy Knife slashed towards the woman in white with an incomparably fierce momentum.
The woman in white blocked with a horizontal sword.
"Boom-"
The moment the swords collided, a huge shock wave spread, like a boulder falling into the water, setting off a huge ripple, and the surrounding sand and rocks flew in an instant.
The body of the woman in white fell back more than ten meters, and the hat on her head and the veil on her face were instantly torn apart, revealing her true face.
The woman in white knelt on one knee, her long sword propped up on the ground, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth.
And after Hong Ze performed this blow of backwater, he also knelt weakly on one knee, and a wisp of blood also oozed from the corner of his mouth.
Hong Ze immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, took off the mask covering his face, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, took out a 'Healing Pill' from the system warehouse, took out the 'Spirit Pot', drank a sip of spiritual water, and ate some spiritual food.
It didn't take long for Hong Ze to regain his strength and stand up, but his internal strength was too much to recover.
The woman in white also stood up.
"I didn't expect you to consume so much physical strength and still be able to burst out with such power, I admit defeat. The woman in white wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said.
"Concession. ”
Hong Ze glanced at the appearance of the woman in white, remembered her appearance, and then turned around to get the snake gall of the snake demon.
After a while, a palm-sized snake gall, green and turquoise, lay quietly on Hong Ze's hand.
Although Hong Ze got the snake gall, he was not happy in his heart, because he did not win this fight.
At this moment, Hong Ze really realized how bad his foundation was, and not long after his Wind Sword Technique was cast, he felt that his physical strength was exhausted, and he couldn't withstand a protracted battle at all.
On the other hand, the woman in white, under such a fierce attack by Hong Ze, was still calm and relaxed, and her physical strength was sufficient, obviously her physical fitness far surpassed that of Hong Ze.
She also came to look for snake gall, indicating that she was also collecting the medicinal materials needed for the medicinal bath, which showed that the real masters attached great importance to basic cultivation.
Hong Ze understood this, and his heart was even clearer, and he must pay more attention to basic cultivation in the future.
"Senior Sister Lu Xuan, it turns out that you are also here, why are you injured, who did it?" Qin Feng came here, and when he saw the woman in white, he seemed very excited, but when he saw the blood on the corner of her mouth, he was immediately surprised and angry.
Behind Qin Feng was Zeng Liubi, who had been looking for Hong Ze everywhere since they entered the secret realm.
"It's nothing, I just lost the competition. Lu Xuan, the woman in white, said casually.
However, her words made Qin Feng jump like thunder.
"How dare I hurt you, and see that I don't kill him. ”
Qin Feng's gaze fell on Hong Ze, because there was no one else here but him.
"Hong Ze, did you injure Senior Sister Lu Xuan?" Qin Feng held a silver spear in his hand and pointed at Hong Ze and shouted.
Zeng Liubi had already found out Hong Ze's identity, and both of them knew Hong Ze.
But Hong Ze was surprised, he didn't know Qin Fengsu.
"How do you know my name?" Hong Ze wondered.
"Hong Ze, do you still remember me? You have offended this son, and today is your death. Zeng Liubi stepped forward and shouted.
Hong Ze looked at Zeng Liubi, frowned, and thought for a while.
"Who are you?" Hong Ze didn't remember who this person was.
"Heh, you forgot me so quickly, you robbed my residence that day, did you forget?" Zeng Liubi was annoyed.
"Oh, it turned out to be you, the one I kicked away that day?" Hong Ze remembered.
