Chapter 90: The Silver Serpent
Three days later, the mother ant brought the colony to join the forest. But Lin Yan just glanced at it, and he felt that the ant colony didn't seem to have any gains.
"Lin Qian, how is foraging?"
"I don't know if I'm scared of being killed, we haven't met any monsters after flying far away. The female ant's slightly complaining words came to mind in Lin Yan's sea of knowledge.
Lin Yan didn't care and said, "Presumably, the demon beasts around here were scared of being killed by you and fled inside." I've been delayed here for a long time, and I'll have to speed up the tutorial, so you and the colony will go back to the stone ball first, and when I get there, I'll find a chance to let you out to feed. ”
"Everything is at the behest of the host. ”
Lin Yan smiled slightly, then stopped speaking, and took out the stone ball with his backhand, allowing the mother ant and the blood-devouring ant to enter the stone ball. After putting away the stone ball, Lin Yan quickly flew in the direction of the spiritual spring in his memory.
Lin Yan didn't encounter any demon beasts on the way he started, and it seemed that he was really killed by the mother ants. However, after flying out of a distance of nearly fifty miles, Lin Yan began to be cautious, after all, he was almost out of the range of female ants, if he was still as swaggering as before, he was afraid that he would cause unnecessary trouble, even if he was not afraid, but it would still take a lot of time to deal with. However, after a day like this, Lin Yan faintly found that the journey after that was too quiet, except for the traces left by some demon beasts' past activities, he couldn't see any demon beasts.
After Lin Yan found out about this situation, he immediately became vigilant, and he hesitated for a while. The sense of crisis forged by years of struggle between life and death instinctively made him smell the repeated danger hidden in this strange situation.
Lin Yan's eyes swept over the sky-supporting trees around him, his brows furrowed more and more, coupled with the situation he found along the way, he couldn't help but have a thought in his heart that made him feel ridiculous: Could it be that something unknown is going to happen in the Demon Spirit Valley to let these low-level collectives move away?
But the idea only existed for a moment, because he felt that it was too early to have such an idea. The scope of the Demon Spirit Valley is as wide as the sum of the two countries of Song and Zhao, and it is possible that he will not be able to touch the demon beasts.
Immediately, Lin Yan put away his thoughts and continued to move towards the depths of the Demon Spirit Valley. But his expression became more and more solemn as he traveled the rest of the way.
No!
He didn't meet a single demon beast, and even his deliberately dispersed aura didn't attract any demon beasts to appear.
Seeing such a situation, Lin Yan was already sure that his conjecture was not wrong.
On this day, Lin Yan came to the foot of a mountain peak. He stopped, looked up at the peak, and said to himself, "According to the map given to me by the brother and sister, after passing this mountain, the distance from the spiritual spring is only a few dozen miles. ”
"Although I don't know why the demon beasts on the outskirts of Demon Spirit Valley have disappeared, I'm afraid it won't be a good thing. Lin Yan frowned, knowing in his heart that he was afraid that he would be involved in some unknown danger again.
However, Lin Yan did not intend to give up entering it and find a place to hide. Hiding was not his style in the first place, and he himself vaguely felt in his heart that even if he dodged, he was afraid that it would be difficult to stay alone.
Lin Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, a ray of essence flashed in his eyes, and he said in a serious tone: "There are still more than four months before the Demon Spirit Valley starts again, and if there is less time, I can't get out of here at all." The only thing I can do right now is to improve my cultivation and strength as much as possible in the limited time I have. As long as your strength is stronger, then you will have more protection for what may happen in the future!"
"Then the next thing to do is ......" A smile appeared on the corner of Lin Yan's mouth, and his feet touched the ground, turning into a long rainbow and flying towards the Demon Spirit Valley.
An hour later, Lin Yan followed the instructions on the map and finally saw the valley where the spring water was hidden. Lin Yan stood suspended in the air, staring at the narrow crack in front of him, leading to the interior of the valley.
The crack was quite dim, and even Lin Yan could only vaguely see it.
"I wonder if this crack is long?"
Lin Yan just said casually, and immediately increased his speed, and flew along the crack towards the valley.
As soon as he entered the crack, Lin Yan condensed a fireball, and at the same time released his divine sense and raised his vigilance, after all, a dark and damp place like this is the easiest place to breed poison. Although he was a foundation monk, ordinary poisons may not work on him, but some poisons can easily take his life.
Lin Yan always believes that there is no big mistake in being careful.
As the forest continued to go deeper, the crack became narrower and narrower, and here it was, only two adults wide.
Lin Yan walked inside, and at the same time carefully observed the surroundings with his divine sense, alert for any disturbances.
Suddenly, Lin Yan's body was suddenly stunned, and his eyes slowly narrowed.
"There are so many poisonous snakes in this crack!"
As soon as Lin Yan raised the fire in his hand, he saw colorful snakes hanging on the stone walls on both sides of him.
These snakes come in large and small sizes, long and short, but each one is dressed in bright colors and is highly venomous.
These poisonous snakes are intertwined with each other, like gorgeous tangled vines.
Hiss!
Those poisonous snakes seemed to raise their heads to look at him because of Lin Yan's action of raising the fire in their hands, and their mouths kept swallowing their long tongues and making a cold hiss.
The hissing sound came and went, and the crack, which had been unusually peaceful, suddenly became noisy. At the same time, more and more poisonous snakes kept crawling out of the cracks in the stone wall in this hiss.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Yan's whole person was completely surrounded by a group of snakes. These poisonous snakes were layered on top of each other, like a swarm of writhing flesh worms, and they looked very disgusting.
Lin Yan's face did not change at all, although the poisonous snakes in this were all highly poisonous, it was not a problem for him.
Hum!
Lin Yan snorted coldly, and an invisible wave of qi burst out from his body. The wave of qi suddenly squeezed towards the many poisonous snakes on the stone wall. These poisonous snakes are just ordinary mortal things, where can they withstand the squeeze of this wave of qi, they have been crushed into crushed mud, clinging to the stone wall.
Although Lin Yan killed a lot of poisonous snakes in this action, it was too rare compared to the rest. At the same time, his action undoubtedly completely angered the remaining poisonous snakes.
The vipers crowded each other and quickly filled the slots of the previously dead vipers. They raised their heads one after another and let out a crazy hisser at Lin Yan.
In the next moment, countless poisonous snakes flew towards Lin Yan almost at the same time. In just the blink of an eye, Lin Yan's whole person was completely wrapped in poisonous snakes.
"Hmph, ant colonies are not dead or alive animals!" suddenly came from among the poisonous snakes.
As soon as the words fell, I saw the group of poisonous snakes wrapped around Lin Yan's body, and they all panicked away, as if they had encountered something quite frightening.
A pale blue spark emerges from a crack in the swarm of venomous snakes. The spark grew wildly in an instant, and in just one breath, the poisonous snakes wrapped around Lin Yan's body burned together.
After a few moments, the pale blue flames vanished, leaving only a huge block of ice suspended in the air, and the ice was full of poisonous snakes.
The poisonous snakes that escaped death and didn't have time to pounce all quickly crawled into the cracks in the stone wall.
Break!
The ice cube suddenly shattered, and the poisonous snake in the ice cube suddenly split apart, turning into countless ice slags and falling below.
Lin Yan glanced at the clean stone walls on both sides of his body with a slightly indifferent expression, then looked down at the light blue flame in his hand, and said to himself with a slight frown: "The spiritual wisdom generated in the flame of this Heavenly Fire and the Yin Eclipse Demon Fire has not grown at all, and it is difficult to provide me with a lot of help at this stage." ”
Lin Yan sighed lightly, and swallowed the flames into his stomach in one gulp, intending to continue to move towards it.
Suddenly, Lin Yan's face changed suddenly, and just now there was a chill on the back of his neck.
Not good, dangerous!
Lin Yan wanted to turn around and deal with it, but he knew in his heart that it was too late. At this critical moment, he only had time to call for the help of the mother ant.
As soon as his mind fell, a red insect shadow appeared in an instant and disappeared in an instant.
Immediately after that, Lin Yan only heard a miserable hissing sound behind him, and he suddenly turned his head and saw a small snake suspended in mid-air, writhing constantly.
The snake was less than a foot long, but strangely enough to have seven white rings around its body, and all of it was black.
"It's a silver snake with seven white rings!"
When Lin Yan saw the appearance of the little snake clearly, his heart couldn't stop beating wildly. He seemed to find it hard to believe that he had encountered this kind of snake, not only in the world, but also in the world of cultivating immortals, which was a snake species that everyone feared. He also figured out why the Divine Consciousness hadn't discovered its existence.
Lin Yan remembered that there was a sporadic introduction about it in an ancient book, the body of the silver krait snake was highly poisonous, and the number of white rings on their body not only represented the age of survival, but also the degree of danger it was. Both the world and the monks prefer to refer to them by the number of white rings on their bodies. In addition, the silver krait is naturally able to shield the monk's divine sense, and at the same time, it is very good at concealment, which is extremely difficult to guard. Fortunately, however, there are very few of them, and like other snakes, they are afraid of sulfur.
Lin Yan still remembered that some of the glorious achievements of the silver krait were recorded in the books, to remind the monks of how terrifying they were: once a monk in the Spiritual Silence period was unfortunately bitten by a seven-ringed snake, and his flesh melted on the spot, turning into a pool of blood. There was once a Yuan Infant who was bitten by a ten-ringed snake, and he could only end up dying in the end after persevering for a hundred years!
Lin Yan shuddered all over his body, if he was really bitten by the seven-ring silver snake just now, I am afraid that his body would turn into blood in an instant.
But......
Lin Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth showed a smile as he looked at the silver krait snake that had long since lost its life in midair.
"Your venom, I took it. ”
