Chapter 21: The Black Snake

In the battle with Li Hao, Jiang Chen realized that his cultivation was not enough.

Although the power of the Lei Yin Divine Needle is amazing, the limit of using it at most once a day is too great, in addition, he can only attack the enemy through his divine sense, if he is also a second-order qi refining, he can defeat the enemy, but once he encounters a monk of the third level of qi refining, if the other party happens to have a magic weapon that can defend against the attack of divine consciousness, even if it can't be completely blocked, just weakened, he may also die under the opponent's weird and ruthless flying sword.

The wound on his left arm would have healed in two or three days, but if the sword had been in the head at that time, he would probably have died by now, even if he was sure to block it completely, even the Thunder Sound Divine Needle was ready to hit the flying sword at any time.

But the stakes are still too great.

"It's naturally a good thing for Heiyun Zhenjun to open his mouth to accept me as a disciple, but the tree is very popular, and if he doesn't return for a day, I will be in danger for a day. ”

Jiang Chen also heard a lot of rumors about the Black Mountain Sect, such as a certain genius boy who was very amazing when he started for one or two years, but he was killed for no reason.

According to his guess, this kind of thing occurs, firstly, it is easy to make enemies with others, and secondly, it is not excluded that some disciples secretly poison disciples of other veins when they are involved in infighting in the sect in order to cater to the elders in the sect.

He must now raise his cultivation to the third level of Qi refining as much as possible, so that the Water Yang Sword and Oolong Ball in his hand can also exert more powerful power, and the power of the Thunder Sound Divine Needle can also be greater, and he can also learn a lot of sword tricks and spells.

After making up his mind, Jiang Chen closed the cave mansion tightly, leaving a few pieces of the spirit stone he won from Li Hao and turning the rest into spiritual liquid, and his cultivation finally soared again, and it was not too far from the late stage of qi refining.

If he wanted to enter the late stage of the second layer of qi refining in the shortest time, he calculated that he still needed at least a hundred spirit stones, or he could cultivate step by step in the cave mansion, and spend a few months steadily entering the late stage of the second layer of qi refining waiting for an opportunity to break through.

But he was unwilling to wait like this, he couldn't earn a hundred spirit stones, but he was sure of the demon crystals equivalent to spiritual power.

"I'm afraid it will take some time to enter the mountain this time, and I need to make some preparations. ”

Jiang Chen closed the cave mansion tightly, and after opening the ban, he went to the Wanbao Pavilion in the door to supply low-level disciples' groceries, and spent five spirit stones in exchange for some small pills, blood condensation, and qi condensation, and there was no spirit stone on his body.

Then, he went into the depths of the mountain behind the Black Mountain Sect alone.

......

In a blink of an eye, three months have passed.

Deep in the back mountain of the Black Mountain Sect, here is a gloomy canyon, Jiang Chen's face was a little solemn and looked at a one-horned giant snake more than ten zhang away in front of him.

This is a second-level demon beast black snake, and when it grows two horns, it will become a third-level demon beast, the black snake Jiao.

He was originally ambushing a first-level snake demon beast here, but unexpectedly, this guy rushed out of a cave not far away, spitting out a fishy scarlet letter, and seemed to be ready to come up for a big meal at any time.

Today's Jiang Chen is already in the late stage of the second layer of qi refining, he broke through as early as two months ago, a large number of demon crystals were taken, and the spiritual power of the dantian became more and more condensed, plus he deliberately fought head-on with one first-level demon beast, and only used his divine sense to attack the enemy when necessary, and his cultivation and actual combat ability improved rapidly, and he finally advanced after a month.

In the next two months, Jiang Chen would kill three first-level demon beasts every day, two of which were killed by frontal fighting and Yuan Shen attack, and the other was directly killed by the Thunder Sound Divine Needle, which not only ensured the speed of obtaining demon crystals, but also consolidated the cultivation and realm, and greatly improved the combat power of fighting.

Compared with the last time he entered the mountain for half a month, this time he encountered some first-level demon beasts with two or three companions, and he dared to attack him secretly, and after he succeeded, he threw it off in a circle, and then went back to dissect the demon pill.

During this period, I also encountered several second-level demon beasts, and basically after the thunder sound divine needle hit the other party hard, and then took the opportunity to escape.

Although the Thunder Sound Divine Needle is powerful, it is not enough to kill the second-level demon beast, if it is a frontal fight, it is even more dangerous, and during the period, it was extremely lucky, and hunted an ordinary second-level demon beast.

And this time, this black snake, which can be called the pinnacle of second-level demon beasts, obviously didn't give him this chance.

The Thunder Sound Divine Needle only had one chance, even after advancing to the late stage of the second layer of Qi refining, it would still drain his divine sense with one shot, and in the face of this strongest black snake, he didn't dare to use it rashly.

"It's just a fight. ”

Jiang Chen knew that in the face of this black snake that would never flinch, he could only fight to the death, and often wandered in the realm of demon beasts, and it was expected to encounter such a crisis, but he didn't expect him to be so cautious, but he didn't expect this guy to suddenly rush out of the dilapidated cave, and the Shuiyang Sword and Oolong Ball were used together, and he was even ready to use Chen Laodao's life-saving box at any time.

"Roar!"

One man and one snake attacked almost simultaneously.

Jiang Chen clenched the Shui Yang Sword, tried his best to keep his body close to the ground, and mixed in the grass, but the black snake's mind was equally strong, although he had no divine sense, his perception was very sensitive, and when he opened his mouth, a large cloud of snake flames spit out.

Jiang Chen was startled, slapped his palm on the ground, and the whole person flew up like a crane, dodging the blow, looking down, all seven or eight feet in a radius fell into the raging sea of fire, this black snake is so domineering witchcraft.

As soon as his consciousness moved, the blow he had prepared for a long time struck at the head of the black snake, only to see that the black snake was about to open its mouth to spit out a second bite of snake flames, but it slammed into the rock wall and fell crookedly.

Suddenly, this blow made the black snake suffer a big loss.

However, this guy is worthy of being the top of the second-level demon beasts, the snake body took advantage of the momentum to hit the rock wall, and immediately rebounded, and the huge snake head shot towards Jiang Chen.

In the face of this murderous thing, Jiang Chen did not dare to be careless, the Shuiyang Sword was infused with spiritual power with all its might, and the defensive effect of the Oolong Ball was also maximized, and the whole person seemed to be shrouded in a layer of black light, looming dragon patterns.

Boom, Jiang Chen was still hit by the snake's head, with the help of divine sense, the Shuiyang Sword stabbed at the snake's mouth at the critical moment, and after dodging this blow and swallowing it alive, the whole person was knocked away by the snake's head, and it was a deep pit that smashed into the rock wall.

The defensive cover of the oolong bead was directly shattered, and some cracks appeared on the surface of the bead, Jiang Chen didn't dare to think about it, this black snake acted like electricity, killing move after blow, took out the last three low-level flame talismans on his body, and threw them in one go, and sure enough, the black snake bit over, just shrouded in three flames, and the burning guy screamed.

Taking advantage of this gap, Jiang Chen bit the demon crystal that had been in his mouth for a long time, and a large amount of spiritual power poured into the dantian, although the battle was short, it was full of strength, and the spiritual power consumption was far faster than when fighting with a first-level demon beast.

He urged the Oolong Bead again and poured a large amount of spiritual power into the Shuiyang Sword, he didn't expect the flying sword to kill the black snake, as long as he could block it when he wanted to swallow himself alive.

As soon as the divine consciousness moved, another attack crashed into the black snake, the black snake was not enlightened, the divine consciousness was not completed, and sure enough, it was hit again, this time the injury was added, and after hitting the rock wall, the snake actually vomited blood with a big mouth.

"Good chance!"

Jiang Chen was overjoyed, and threw out a few fire snake spells to burn at the black snake, and at the same time, there was a stirring in the sea of knowledge, and an extremely thin black needle emitted a strange divine light formed in the sea of knowledge, and then the center of the eyebrows seemed to crack a gap, and the thunder sound divine needle shot at the black snake at a very fast speed.

Maybe it was because he sensed this killing opportunity that could never be avoided, and the black snake, which had suffered from the attack of the divine sense, had not yet eased up, so he could only use his luck to twitch the snake's tail with all his strength, and Jiang Chen was a snake whip.

Jiang Chen saw that the Thunder Sound Divine Needle hit the black snake and destroyed its sea of consciousness at the same time, the spiritual power of the whole body was completely drummed up, all over the surface of the body, and the Oolong Ball was even urged to the strongest defense regardless of the damage, and the next moment, the huge snake tail was drawn, and the whole person was knocked away like lightning, crashing into the rock wall and fainting.

......

"Tick-tock... Tick tock..."

Jiang Chen woke up to the intermittent sound of raindrops, lying in the corner of the rock wall, dripping rain on his lips, it turned out to be raining.

The moment he woke up, Jiang Chen stretched out his hand and recalled the Shuiyang Sword not far away, and only after checking it with all his divine sense did he confirm that he was swept by the black snake tail, fainted, and pinched his fingers to calculate that three days had passed.

This time the injury was very serious, even if I woke up now, I couldn't move, and the action just now made my whole body hurt. The huge black snake corpse was curled up in a corner a zhang away, and the violent smell of the snake came to the nostrils, but the whole snake did not have a trace of rotting and smelling smell, Jiang Chen couldn't help but be overjoyed, the black snake had a demon pill in its body.

A black snake demon pill at the peak of a second-level demon beast may be the key to helping you break through the second layer of qi refining and enter the third layer.
