Chapter 18: Stealing the Ice Crystal Fruit
I saw a few crystal clear fruit trees growing on the opposite island of the lake, and a few crystal fruits were on the trees, shining with a cold light. According to Ling Chuchen'www.biquge.info s method, this beast is not very intelligent, but it regards this lake as its own territory, and instinctively attacks all creatures that invade his territory.
Shu Ran's task was to lure the giant python in this lake away for about half an hour, and Ling Chuchen took this opportunity to pick the ice crystal fruit. It is much more dangerous to act as a bait than to pick the ice crystal fruit, but this ice crystal fruit is a strange thing, and when it is picked, it must be wrapped in pure ice aura and put into the cold jade box to be preserved, so Shu Ran can only act as the role of this bait, but fortunately, Shu Ran's task is only to entangle the giant python for half a moment.
After carefully observing the terrain for a while, Shu Ran came to a big tree by the lake, took out the transparent string he carried with him and tied it to the tree, and then walked to several big trees around him and did the same.
Ling Chuchen was puzzled by Shu Ran's actions, and just watched quietly. After a while, Shu Ran moved, he jumped quickly to the island in the lake, pretending to pick ice crystal fruits, the giant python suddenly jumped out from behind, opened its blood basin and wanted to swallow Shu Ran in one bite, although it had already been prepared, but the speed of the giant python was too amazing, Shu Ran couldn't dodge being scratched by the scales to the front chest and right leg, fortunately, with the protection of the tortoiseshell shield, the front chest was not harmed, but the right leg was cut open, and the blood flowed, but for Shu Ran in the later stage of Qi training, these wounds had little effect.
The giant python struck unsuccessfully, and the whole body twisted its tail and quickly pumped towards Shu Ran, and when Shu Ran saw this, he promptly urged the defensive circle of the tortoiseshell shield, and condensed the defensive enchantment before the giant tail of the giant python attacked.
The huge force knocked Shu Ran's whole person into the air, the giant python was overjoyed when he saw this, opened his blood basin and swallowed it, Shu Ran smiled strangely at this time, and his body unbelievably "teleported" to the other side, and quickly fled to a big tree on the shore.
The python was so angry that it was desperate to tear the human who challenged its majesty to shreds, completely ignoring the protection of the islands in the lake. Seeing this reckless chase, Shu Ran knew that his plan had succeeded, so he jumped hard, condensed a huge fire dragon in the air, and flew towards the giant python with a roar, the giant python was also shocked, and he didn't understand how Shu Ran could send out such a terrifying attack in a short period of time, but its reaction was not slow, and it dodged this terrifying attack with a flexible twist of its body.
When it looked closely, Shu Ran had already appeared on another tree in the distance. The giant python's intelligence was not high, and it was in extreme anger at this time, desperately rushing towards the big tree where Shu Ran was. Ling Chuchen was overjoyed when he saw this, and quietly landed on the lake island, picking the fruit while still being on guard wholeheartedly.
Shu Ran in the distance is not easy at the moment, although the giant python is not very intelligent, but as a demon beast in the late stage of the third order, the speed is amazing, and the explosive power is also extremely terrifying, and a moment of distraction is very likely to make Shu Ran die in the belly of the demon beast.
Fortunately, Shu Ran is well prepared, and whenever he encounters a critical moment, he can magically teleport to avoid the attack of the demon beast. Finally, seeing Ling Chuchen leave the island in the lake, it seemed that he had successfully collected the elixir. Shu Ran no longer fought with the demon beasts, and quickly appeared on a big tree by the lake with a strong jump, and then went ashore non-stop and made peace with Ling Chuchen.
The demon beast had a strong sense of territory and did not continue to pursue. Shu Ran was able to successfully reconcile with Ling Chuchen. Soon after, he heard an angry roar from the lake, accompanied by a huge spray, and it seemed that the monster had discovered that "its own" treasure had been taken away by someone else.
Regardless of the sound coming from behind them, Shu Ran and Ling Chuchen happily divided the Ice Crystal Fruit. Ling Chuchen curiously asked Shu Ran where he had learned the "method" of teleporting in the air. Shu Ran just smiled slightly, and took out a piece of spirit binding rope from the storage bag.
This spirit rope is extremely common in the world of cultivating immortals, and it is usually colorless and transparent, no different from ordinary ropes, but after injecting spiritual power into it, it will become very tough, and its main purpose is to restrain low-level demon beasts.
Shu Ran had wrapped this spirit rope around the big tree by the lake before, and with the pull of the rope, he was able to move instantly in the air. Ling Chuchen didn't expect that the spirit binding rope would have such a purpose, and he couldn't help but secretly admire Shu Ran's wisdom.
So she thought, although he usually feels a little cowardly and unreliable, but when he gets serious, he will give people a sense of security, as if nothing in the world can stump him, if he can experience and take risks with him all his life, how good it would be.
Ling Chuchen invited Shu Ran to go with him, but Shu Ran pushed it off, for no other reason, Shu Ran still had important tasks on this trip to the ruins, so he could only decline Ling Chuchen's invitation.
When passing through a small low slope, Xiao Hong in the storage ring said that he could feel the existence of the array eye, and the direction was not along the direction of the tall main peak, but in another direction.
Shu Ran naturally did not doubt him, and at the same time felt a little happy in his heart, fortunately, the eye of the formation was not on the tall peak, otherwise it would naturally be inevitable to fight, and although Shu Ran's cultivation magic weapon was superior, after all, there was too little experience in fighting, and there were not many means, and there was a great risk of falling into a fight.
This also made Shu Ran realize his own shortcomings for the first time. The path of monasticism is to go against the sky, and if you always blindly avoid danger, you will one day deviate from the direction. Only by rising to the challenge can we go further on this road. So Shu Ran secretly decided that after this trip to the ruins was over, he would go to the sunset forest in the northeast outside the sect to practice.
Shu Ran's speed of progress is not fast, after all, in this land of dangerous ruins, safety is the most important thing. After a while, Shu Ran felt that there was someone fighting in front of him, and judging from the fluctuation of mana, there were quite a few people, relying on the ethereal tent to hide his figure, after weighing the pros and cons, Shu Ran decided to go and find out. So without saying a word, Shu Ran sacrificed the ethereal tent and chased towards the place of fighting.
"Senior Brother Ouyang, this beast seems to be not low in intelligence, seeing that it is not able to resist the siege of the three of us, it actually wants to break through, I hope Senior Brother Ouyang will use thunder means to kill it!"
Senior Brother Yang dragged this beast down, and he must not let it run away, he would be able to strangle this beast in a few moments. Ouyang Yangming's heart was also on fire at this time, didn't the content recorded in the classics say that the strength of the earth armor beast was weak, it was only good at escaping, and its strength was mostly a second-order mid-order demon beast? But this one in front of him actually had the strength of the peak of the third order, and as an earth attribute demon beast, it could actually fly through the sky for a short time, this was clearly an ability that only a fourth-order demon beast could have! You must know that the fourth-order demon beast is equivalent to the realm of the foundation building period of human beings!
Originally, his own strength could steadily defeat this demon beast, but this demon beast was extremely good at the art of earth escape, so he had to ask the other two Shi Meng disciples to help drag this beast, who knew that this Yang family disciple was so unbearable. Fearing that things would change, Ou Yangming couldn't keep his strength, so he had to take out the strength at the bottom of the box to kill this beast as soon as possible.
