Chapter 14: Penance (Part I)
"Woo woo woo~~"
"Goo~~"
"Roar~BangBang~"
The Tianling Mountain Range under the darkness seemed to be more active than during the day, and the roars of various soul beasts sounded all over the mountain range from time to time, and many soul beasts that only appeared at night also quietly emerged from their nests, using the veil of night to find their prey, setting off bloody killings and battles in the dark mountain ranges......
In the darkness of the outer mountains, there are many places where there is a faint light, like stars in the night sky, but if you look inside, you will find that they are not stars, but bonfires lit by adventurers.
Although the danger of the Tianling Mountains at night is much greater than that during the day, this still can't stop everyone from leaving, and many people still choose to stay and wait for Tianming to continue hunting to earn gold coins and soul stones.
Although these adventurers chose to stay, most of them only dared to spend the night on the outskirts of the mountain range, because the level of soul beasts here was generally not high, and most of them were just ordinary fierce beasts, even ordinary hunters could deal with them, but it was different in the inner perimeter.
There are all soul beasts active in it above the second order, which is equivalent to the level of a human soul master and a great soul master, and the higher the level of the core soul beast close to the mountain range, it is rumored that there are seventh-order soul beasts equivalent to the strong of the human soul emperor in the deepest part!
The most important thing is that although the territory of the soul beasts in the inner enclosure is relatively fixed, there are often soul beasts who leave their territory to "shop" everywhere, so although many adventurers of the second and third order soul beasts on the edge of the inner perimeter can deal with it, they do not dare to risk spending the night in the inner enclosure, because no one can guarantee that they will not encounter a high-level soul beast that "goes shopping", and not only will they fail to hunt the soul beast at that time, but they will also become a fertilizer component pulled out by the soul beast.
However, there are exceptions, and some of the truly strong are not afraid to spend the night in the inner perimeter of the mountain range, such as now there is a small point of light flickering on the edge of the inner perimeter of the mountain range, as if it may be blown out by the wind at any time, but it is like a fishing fire, bright and uncertain but always there.
Silk silk~
In the darkness near the small campfire, a large snake foraging for food at night was spitting out a letter and slowly crawling towards the figure next to the campfire.
The big snake has the thickness of a thigh, and its whole body is covered with black scales, and it is an invisibility cloak in the dark night, and the slight sound of the snake's body rubbing against the grass and trees makes it look extremely small in the noisy night, as if it is silent.
Ten meters... Eight meters... Five-meter ......
The black snake quietly lurked near the figure with its natural advantages, and the figure next to the bonfire was already reflected in the vertical pupils the size of the big snake's egg, but the man did not realize that he had been targeted by the terrible predator, and was still tinkering with his own affairs around the bonfire, not aware of the danger at all.
Silk silk~
With the slow crawling of the black snake, the distance between the two is getting closer and closer, when the big snake is less than three meters away from the figure, the upper part of the whole body slowly shrinks back, and the vertical pupils of the figure reflecting the fire flash a trace of bloody cruelty, and then opens the sharp mouth full of fangs, and with a bang, a mouthful of venom shoots out of the mouth like an arrow and shoots directly at the figure, at the same time, the upper body of the snake body rushes towards the head of the figure like a cannonball, opens its bloody mouth, and tries to bite off the figure's head.
The black snake is very sure of its double attack, in the past, when it used this trick to kill its prey, even some soul beasts that were stronger than it could not parry, and it became its meal, obviously the human beings who looked extremely weak in front of them were no exception, and the thought that they could enjoy a delicious dinner again, the vertical pupils couldn't help but have a trace of cruel joy.
Burst!
The venom of the black snake shot the figure as the snake expected, but unlike the snake expected, the position where his venom shot was not the head of the figure, but on the palm of the figure's outstretched hand, originally it didn't matter whether the venom was shot on the head or the palm of the snake, because it could also bite directly, but this time it miscalculated.
Sneer~
The venom sprayed onto the palm of the person's hand, making a burst of noise, but it was not the sound of the flesh being corroded by the serpent, but the sound of the liquid spraying on the red-hot iron and evaporating rapidly, yes, it was like this, because the palm of the hand was indeed red, and it also exuded an extremely hot temperature, and the venom had already evaporated without touching the palm, and not a drop touched the figure.
Seeing the venom being evaporated instantly, and feeling the high temperature emitted by the human palm, a trace of fear instinctively emerged in the eyes of the black snake, bang bang ~ The strong tail of the big snake slapped the ground hard to retract the body he rushed out, but it was too late, the fiery red palm continued to expand in the big snake's fearful vertical pupils, and then gently imprinted between the eyes of the big snake......
"Flame Palm!"
The figure gently spat out two words, and then with a snort, a hot flame instantly emerged from the palm of his hand, covering the entire big snake in it, and the burning snake immediately wailed, and its huge body twisted and curled up a few times in pain on the ground, and after sweeping off a few trees, there was no more movement.
The flames on the serpent's body were also extinguished a few seconds after his death, and as the flames were extinguished, a burst of fleshy fragrance wafted out of the serpent's body......
"Tsk, good, good. This time the heat is well controlled, much better than the previous times, the roast is very fragrant, the outside is charred and the inside is tender, and it must be delicious when sprinkled with pepper and salt. ”
After the big snake was burned to death, a translucent figure appeared on the body of the big snake, and the hand also tore off the blackened scales of the snake's skin, revealing the white and tender snake meat that exuded heat and aroma inside.
"Haha, senior, it's a pity that you can't eat it no matter how fragrant the roast is, so I can only enjoy it alone, what a sin, I'm embarrassed. ”
As soon as the sitting figure heard the appreciation of the translucent figure, he stood up with a smile, looked at the big snake that exuded fragrance, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, he swallowed his saliva with a grunt, and walked without the slightest hint of humility, just tore off a large piece of white snake meat, sprinkled with chili pepper and salt that had already been prepared, and ate it in spite of the figure in the air, and sighed with his mouth, without any "guilt" and embarrassment......
The translucent figure watched the fragrant snake meat being eaten by others in front of him, he couldn't do anything except smell and smell, and his heart was unhappy for a while, his face was full of black lines, thinking that he had not been able to eat barbecue several times before, and his heart was even more angry, and then his eyes rolled, and he thought of something, and the corners of his mouth showed a sneer, but there was a smile on the surface, and he said in a very gentle tone: "It's so fragrant, do you want to add a dish tomorrow?"
When the figure who was feasting heard this, his body couldn't help but stiffen......
