Chapter 64: The Great Serpent
Chapter 64 The Great Snake "But I found that the snake was only more than five hundred meters away from you. ā
The words of the system were like a basin of ice water poured on Cheng Ming's head, and his eyes were shocked: "Aren't you able to detect things within a kilometer, why is it more than five hundred meters now?"
"It's likely that the snake has some magical ability to hide itself, so I'd better be careful if you suggest yƬ. ā
"This ......" Cheng Ming seemed very hesitant, could it be that he had climbed the mountain for more than two hours, and he could only go back? This is inevitably too unwilling, too cowardly!
"System, you should be able to identify the effect of that spirit fruit, right?"
"It can be comparable to a earth treasure, and when it matures, it should be a heavenly treasure-level spiritual object. ā
"You say it's not mature yet?" The system's answer surprised Cheng Ming again.
"Yes, it is estimated that it will be more than a year before it matures. ā
"More than a year?"
Cheng Ming lowered his head and pondered, fools know that it is a precious treasure, but then again, no matter how precious it is, it is in vain if you can't get it.
Besides, if Tianbao is born, then there will definitely be a vision in this area, which will inevitably attract the attention of countless martial artists, and even if he already has the strength to build a foundation, it is very unlikely that the spirit fruit can be obtained under the four hands of two fists.
The thought struggled in his mind for a while, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "Wealth is in danger, if the spirit fruit is ripe, I will definitely not get it, it is better to try my luck now!"
Just do it, next, Cheng Ming carefully moved the position of the super spirit fruit, and when he was a hundred meters away from the spirit fruit, the big snake that the system said also came into his eyes.
"System, are you sure it's a snake?"
At this moment, Cheng Ming's whole body trembled a little, because the snake was five or six meters long, not to mention, and there was a sharp horn five or six centimeters long on the top of his head, if it wasn't for the fact that this snake had no feet, he would have thought it was a mythical and legendary dragon.
"Run!"
Hearing the system's reminder, Cheng Ming didn't ask why at all, he just turned around and ran, and then he heard a roar of "moo" from behind.
"Use the secret technique quickly, or it will be too late!"
Seeing that the system was so urgent, Cheng Ming dared to delay, and directly used the secret technique "Wind and Clouds", and the whole person turned into a wind and roared away.
"Moo!"
Seeing that in the blink of an eye, Cheng Ming was almost gone, and the big snake behind him roared again, and after a slight pause, a big mouth spewed out a fireball towards Cheng Ming's back, and the speed was actually a few points faster than the current Cheng Ming.
At this stage, in addition to the relatively large side effects, there is also the defect of short time, and after five seconds, Cheng Ming had to stop.
At this time, Cheng Ming had already rushed out of one or two hundred meters, and when he had just taken a breath and was about to run for his life, the fireball also followed, and then he heard a loud bang, and he was instantly overwhelmed by a fire.
"Moo!"
The scene in front of him made the big snake feel very satisfied, and he screamed happily again, and quickly turned his head and crawled towards the position of the spirit fruit.
"It's gone. ā
After a while, the sound of the system sounded again, and Cheng Ming, who was hiding behind a big tree, endured the severe pain of his body being grilled by the flames, and quickly and carefully ran out of several hundred meters.
"System, treat me quickly!" When he reached a safe place, Cheng Ming roared urgently, until a cool feeling came from his body, and he sat on the ground and gasped.
It was too dangerous just now, if it weren't for the fact that there was a big tree next to him blocking him, and there was a spirit energy to treat him from time to time, plus the big snake didn't come to check on the spirit fruit, he would have been fierce and unlucky at this time, thinking about the scene at that time, he felt scared.
Looking back, the fire that had just burned had all disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if it had heard a command, and the surrounding trees were still intact.
This made Cheng Ming very curious and asked, "System, what kind of fire is this?"
The system explained: "It seems to be a bit like karmic fire, but it is not as powerful as karmic fire, maybe when it completely turns into a dragon, or after Jackie Chan, this fire can become a real karmic fire." ā
After listening to the system's explanation, Cheng Ming reacted that this fire was indeed a bit like karmic fire, only acting on his body, like his hair and clothes were still the same as before, as if the fire just now did not happen at all.
When the surprise passed, it was a pain in the flesh, because there were still 11.2 psionic powers just now, and just a moment ago, there was only 6.8 left, which made Cheng Ming really want to cry without tears, and then he blamed the responsibility on the system.
"What do you say about this time, is this Tama a golden wolf? I don't think Wei Lao Mo and Shayan are as powerful as this snake!"
"This is indeed a snake demon, equivalent to a foundation building monk, but its body should be a mutated hidden snake. ā
The Hidden Snake is an assassin among snakes, it is proficient in the art of concealment, often hiding in dark corners, taking the opportunity to give the enemy a fatal blow, is a very annoying and feared snake in the cultivation world.
Cheng Ming couldn't figure out why there was a hidden snake here, he listened to the system's words, and said angrily: "Then you mean to say that I can only be regarded as unlucky and deserve it!"
The system replied: "You must know that my ability is actually an extension of your strength, if you now have the strength of the fifth layer of the Qi refining period, that is, the silver tiger position, there will be no accident like just now." ā
Cheng Ming was a little speechless about the system, but since it was related to his own interests, he played a scoundrel again: "I don't care, anyway, this is your mistake, you have to compensate me!"
However, this time the system didn't eat Cheng Ming's set, and he didn't reply for a long time, which made Cheng Ming snort coldly angrily: "Okay, since that's the case, don't want to get spiritual energy from me!"
With that, he stood up and walked back in a huff.
It took more than two hours to come out of the mountain, and it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon at this time, Cheng Ming looked back at the mountain, and he was very worried, he wanted the spirit fruit very much, but the big snake guarding the spirit fruit was not something he could deal with, which put him in a dilemma for a while.
"Forget it, let's improve our strength first, if you don't have the strength, it's a loss of your life. ā
Cheng Ming thought hard for a while, and found that he was not capable of getting the spirit fruit at all, so he could only sigh, and then took the car to prepare to go home.
It was an hour-and-a-half-hour drive from Yaoshan to Cheng Ming's house, which was almost the right time after school, so Cheng Ming walked around the community for a while before going upstairs to open the door of his house.
"Mom, I'm back!"
Walking into the house, as usual, Xiaobai shook his head and came to greet him, Cheng Ming patted its head and walked in, only to find that his mother was staring at him viciously.
Seeing this, he laughed dryly: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
"What's the matter, you're still asking me what's wrong?" Jiang Wanyun gritted her teeth and said angrily: "Say! Where have you been all day today!"
Cheng Ming was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "I haven't been there, I've been at school." ā
Jiang Wanyun had a cold face and said coldly: "I'll give you another chance!"
Cheng Ming's brain teaser was in a hurry, and he hurriedly lowered his head and said weakly: "I went to practice martial arts." ā
Jiang Wanyun took a deep breath and said earnestly: "Xiao Ming, how many times have I told you, you can wait until you have time to practice martial arts later, you are studying now, don't forget, last week you told me that you were going to take the first place in the whole house in the high school entrance examination, can you still take the exam like this?"
Cheng Ming explained: "Mom, I scored 557 points in the mock exam, and my cultural score is no problem at all, but the key is also the sports score, if my sports score is very poor, is it possible to become the first in the province?"
This is a prosperous world of martial arts, and Datang also attaches great importance to sports, whether it is the high school entrance examination or the college entrance examination, sports results will be counted in the total score, so Cheng Ming said so.
Jiang Wanyun shook her head: "But this time it's just your school organizing a mock test, can you guarantee that the mock test in the whole province next time can also have such good results?"
Cheng Ming hurriedly said, "I can guarantee it!"
"Really?" Jiang Wanyun obviously didn't believe it.
Cheng Ming said helplessly: "Mom, why don't you believe me? Just like my body, I said it's okay, you just don't believe it, how about going to the hospital on Tuesday?"
Last Sunday, Jiang Wanyun was going to take Cheng Ming to the hospital on Monday, but the specialist was not there on Monday, so she went on Tuesday. After being checked by experts, Cheng Ming's body is very normal, and there is no problem at all, as for why it has not developed yet, the expert's inference is the same as that given by the system, and he needs to recuperate for a period of time and wait for his body to fully recover.
Jiang Wanyun smiled and said, "It's not that my mother doesn't believe you, after all, you are still a student, what is the matter if you don't go to school and practice martial arts outside all day?
Hearing this, Cheng Ming was overjoyed, and after a while, he spoke: "Mom, if not, I go to school every morning and practice martial arts in the afternoon, what do you think?"
Speaking of this, he added: "I promise that it will not affect my grades, and there is still a month of mock exams prepared by the whole government, if I can't get into the top three in the class, I will honestly go back to school." ā
Jiang Wanyun pondered for a moment and said, "It's useless for you to convince me, will your head teacher lightly agree to you doing this?"
Cheng Ming smiled: "Mom, to be honest, I have already studied the course of the first year of high school, if I can do a good job in the first year of high school, presumably the head teacher should not have an opinion, right?"
Cheng Ming's answer made Jiang Wanyun slightly stunned, and then said: "Okay, then I will accompany you to school next week, but whether it succeeds or not, it depends on your own strength." ā
