Chapter Twenty-Three: Xuanling Fruit
walked all the way, and it took three days to come to the destination that Zhang Puyu was going to reach.
At a glance of the flat river, the grass grows over the shoulder, standing in the distance and looking at it, the wind blows like rippling blue waves.
"This is it. Zhang Puyu nodded with satisfaction,
The plain in front of me, looking at the overgrown meadow, is actually a swamp, according to the logo on the map, in the swamp, there is a giant python circling,
Zhang Puyu had read a lot of miscellaneous notes, from which he learned that the scales of this python could be used to make defensive armor, Zhang Puyu knew that there were no refiners in the town, so Zhang Puyu was ready to collect the python skin to make a simple sewing, thinking that it should be possible to prevent some simple physical attacks.
In the Snowy Valley, he has been going for more than half a month, and his cultivation is in the Great Perfection of the Sixth Order of Qi Cultivation, but he has not touched the threshold of the seventh order for a long time. The pills that can be purchased now are useless to themselves, and if they use too much, they will store a lot of erysipelas in their bodies, which will affect their future cultivation advancement, so now Zhang Puyu can only practice aimlessly in this snowy valley, hoping that he can advance to the seventh order when he takes the exam of the three clans, and there is no other way.
At this time, it was noon, the sun was shining, Zhang Puyu saw that there was no one around, in fact, this is also normal, Kaiyuan Town is really too small, such a vast area, these people in the town are scattered, just walking, I don't know if I can see a living person in half a month.
Zhang Puyu held the long sword in his hand, and the cat leaned towards the grass to drill into it, holding the spirit rune in his hand.
It was soft and soft on the grass, and there was some shaking all around. Zhang Puyu has already attached two speed-up talismans to his body, as long as there is something wrong, he will immediately drive these two spirit runes, and it is important to run away.
After groping inward for nearly two hours, Zhang Puyu sweated, dripping on the ground under his feet.
"Click,,Click"
The wind was still blowing, but it just skipped over Zhang Puyu's head, and the tips of the grass were blowing in the wind.
At this moment, Zhang Puyu seemed to hear a strange movement, the blades of grass rubbed, there was a rattling sound, and the soil under his feet also undulated.
At first, Zhang Puyu thought that his movement was too big, so he stopped to identify it carefully, and then he felt that there was something unusual.
Zhang Puyu judged from the direction of the fluctuation of the soil under his feet that the movement came from that direction
"Hehe," Zhang Puyu determined the direction, and the corners of his mouth smiled slightly. Cautiously walked into the distance.
The closer he got, Zhang Puyu frowned, and at this time, a fishy smell was obviously emitted in the air.
Zhang Puyu carefully pushed aside a blade of grass in front of him, only to see a giant python with a brown body and the thickness of a bucket, curled up on a piece of overwhelmed grass. The length of the body is too shrunk so that it can't be seen clearly, the flat snake head is drooping, the tip of the mouth touches the ground, and the eyes are closed.
Looking at the aura emanating from this giant python, it was obvious that it was not a second-order demon beast, it should be a third-order demon beast. And it's at its peak. Zhang Puyu didn't feel a pang in her heart. I don't know when I went to the inventory of this map in my hand.,I found three places.,Actually, the monsters in two places broke through.。
Just when Zhang Puyu was still thinking about whether to attack or retreat, his eyes were stunned by the scene in front of him.
Just two meters away from the python, there is a small tree, the small tree is about one meter high, separated by four or five branches, the leaves are round like cakes, green like jade. But among the branches, among the green leaves, there hung a bright red fruit. It is very abrupt, the fruit is as big as a fist, the whole body is bright red like blood, and it has a luster, which is very good-looking.
Zhang Puyu looked at it from a distance, and all the features were in his eyes, but Zhang Puyu's heart trembled.
The fruit in front of you is the "Xuanling Fruit" recorded in the "Naturalist General Chronicle", according to records, this fruit only bears one fruit in a lifetime, when ripe, yellow stripes will appear on the bright red peel, the more stripes appear, the better its medicinal effect.
This Xuanling fruit is said to be able to change people's qualifications, Zhang Puyu doesn't know how to look at qualifications, only knows that there is a test method, but the specifics are unknown.
Seeing this Xuanling Fruit, Zhang Puyu was excited, not just lacking this thing, with this he could change his physique! It was really a great opportunity to break through the iron shoes and find nowhere to go, maybe he would be able to successfully break through the seventh order of Qi cultivation by taking the fruit.
In addition to being excited, Zhang Puyu looked at the giant python hovering together not far away, it seemed that this giant python was the guardian demon beast of this "Xuanling Fruit".
Originally, I thought that the third-order demon beast was not easy to deal with, so I would retreat, but with this "Xuanling Fruit", Zhang Puyu would give up this opportunity if he said anything.
"This Xuanling Fruit is not ripe yet, and it seems that there are still three days left at most. Zhang Puyu thought carefully and slowly retreated.
Guardian monsters don't pick the fruit before it's ripe. It's not the time to do it yet.
Exiting the grass, I came to the forest, found a thick tree, dug a hole, arranged all the formations, and began to practice.
Slowly three days passed, among which Zhang Puyu also left this place, went to the periphery to take a look, and by the way, grilled some meat to eat this, for fear that if the giant python was too close, it would be bad to provoke greed.
At this time, Zhang Puyu held the spirit talisman left by the master, followed the mark left the day before, and walked towards the giant python.
It had already stopped in the distance, and at this time the python seemed excited, opened its eyes, twisted its flat head, and looked around.
At this time, Zhang Puyu was even more surprised, most of the original bright red Xuanling Fruit actually turned yellow.
"Just a yellow stripe?" Zhang Puyu said a little weirdly, what is recorded in the book is only a rough idea, in Zhang Puyu's heart, "stripes", isn't it just a stripe of lines? But is this line in front of him too wide.
Although he was a little surprised, Zhang Puyu was not in a hurry, and it seemed that he was still not really mature.
It is recorded in the book that as soon as the Xuanling Fruit is ripe, the branches and leaves will wither and fall off, and the whole tree will lose its vitality and become a pair of dead branches.
Zhang Puyu looked up and saw that the giant python was not in a hurry, so he was convinced.
"But it's almost time. Otherwise, the python would not have guarded it so carefully. Zhang Puyu carefully analyzed in his heart.
After it was confirmed, Zhang Puyu still hid in the grass and waited quietly.
The early sun was still hanging above his head at this time, it was very hot, Zhang Puyu was already waiting, although his mouth was very dry, but he didn't dare to find water to drink, otherwise he would miss the opportunity in front of him, afraid that he would vomit blood in distress afterwards.
The midday sun slanted westward, enveloping the entire grass and gradually setting away.
