C231: PoisonedThe Python Dragon let out a sharp scream, and started to twist frantically. Using its head to grab the ground, Tang Zheng firmly held onto the sword hilt, allowing the sharp blade to enter completely. Please add
The two pairs of eyes were inches away and both could see the light that exploded from each other"s eyes. However, the Python Dragon was unwilling to die, while Tang Zheng was filled with unstoppable killing intent.
Finally, the Python Dragon"s scream died down, and its pupils enlarged, as its life force was drained bit by bit. With a loud bang, the Python Dragon softly fell to the ground, dead.
Tang Zheng pulled out the War Soul Sword, then walked towards the clan elder: "Clan Elder, how are your injuries?"
The elder squeezed out a smile, "We won"t die, Sir Envoy, we didn"t protect you, so we deserve to die a thousand times …"
Tang Zheng immediately stopped them: "Elder, I should be the one who said that, I am your senior envoy, but I was unable to protect you, making you take the risk is my fault."
The elder was deeply touched.
"I"ll go see Ye Yuan first."
Tang Zheng followed the mountain path and went down, finally finding Ye Yuan. He had fainted, and after Tang Zheng checked his body, he found that his bones were injured, but it was not life-threatening.
To be able to survive in the midst of a battle with a Python Dragon was not easy.
After saving Ye Yuan, the two of them returned to the entrance of the cave. However, they found that Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ had already fallen into a coma, and her face was gradually covered with a layer of green.
A novel
The elder turned pale with fright, "Sir Envoy, Miss Fang was poisoned by the snake just now, hurry up and give her the medicine." As he spoke, he took out a porcelain bottle.
Tang Zheng was startled. He was recovering his cultivation previously, and did not know that she had been poisoned by the poisonous snake. He did not dare delay and immediately fed her a pill.
The green color on her face had yet to completely fade away, but it was still under control. It didn"t spread out to other places, but eventually converged on her forehead, forming a small dot.
Tang Zheng knew that the situation was bad and immediately asked, "Clan Elder, it seems that her venom has not been completely cured."
After observing for a while, he said: "Yes, this Python Dragon"s poison is many times stronger than ordinary snake poisons. Although my pills are useful against ordinary snake poisons, they are still unable to completely remove the poison from the Python Dragon."
"Then what should we do? Will she be in danger?" Tang Zheng turned pale with fright. He would rather be poisoned himself than be poisoned in the Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, let alone something bad that happened to her.
"Lord Envoy need not worry, we can temporarily control the poison in her body. When we return, I will carefully search for a way to detoxify her." The elder said.
Tang Zheng heaved a sigh of relief, but hated the Python Dragon to the core.
Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ woke up slowly. He saw that Tang Zheng"s face was ashen and immediately asked: "What"s wrong, where"s the Python Dragon?" Before Tang Zheng killed the Python Dragon, she had already fainted from the poison"s effects.
Tang Zheng immediately held her tightly and comforted her: "Don"t worry, that beast has already been killed by me."
Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ revealed a relieved expression, "That"s good, it"s too powerful, I"m not its opponent."
"Don"t say anything for now. Rest well."
Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ held onto his arm and stood up, revealing a smile: "Don"t think that I"m so weak, I"m fine now."
Seeing that she was truly alright, Tang Zheng finally relaxed a little. However, when he saw the smear of green on her forehead, he was still unable to completely relax.
"Sir Envoy, this beast is strange. Do you think that something from the cave might have attracted him here?" The elder asked worriedly.
Tang Zheng looked at the cave, frowned and said: "Of course. It"s that huge egg, that must be something extraordinary, something that the Python Dragon can"t wait to get hold of, it must be a treasure. "
The elder said, "That"s for sure, after all, this is the holy land of us witches, and the thing inside is the holy treasure of the witches. Of course it"s a treasure, but this holy land has been around for countless years, so why didn"t the Python Dragon come to the holy land before?"
This was a common question that troubled the few of them. The few of them looked at each other, and finally looked at Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng thought for a long time and asked: "Clan Elder, why were there no animals on this mountain before?"
"According to the Witch clan"s ancestors, there are also restrictions in the Sacred Land. Vicious birds and fierce beasts do not dare to approach."
"But this time, the Python Dragon went up the mountain. Could it be that this restriction has weakened as well?" Tang Zheng guessed.
The elder thought for a moment and nodded, "That is indeed possible. Master, you have weakened the Ten Thousand Huge Mountains"s restrictions on the witch clan, and the restrictions on the Sacred Land must have been weakened as well. That is why this beast dared to trespa.s.s into the Sacred Land."
"So that means that the Sacred Grounds are no longer safe, there will be more ferocious beasts attacking us in the future."
The elder"s face changed as he looked at the cave: "What should we do?" "The sacred relic of the Witch clan will not allow these animals to get their hands on it. Besides, the sacred relic is related to the fate of the Witch clan, and it cannot be lost."
"Elder, after you go back, send your clansmen to patrol the Sacred Grounds. I"ll guard here for now." Tang Zheng sighed.
"That"s the only way. Thank you for your hard work, Sir."
"I"ll stay behind to accompany you." Ye Yuan said.
The elder nodded and went down the mountain alone. When he pa.s.sed by the corpse of the Python Dragon, he stopped and said: "Sir Envoy, this Python Dragon is a treasure so we cannot waste it. Especially the Orb in its stomach, it is beneficial for cultivation."
Tang Zheng thought of the Red Chained Snake"s...o...b..and nodded his head to show that he knew.
"s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, sit down and rest first. I am here to retrieve the Python Dragon"s...o...b.."
Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was itching to give it a try. "I"m with you, I"ve never seen an inner core before."
"This Python Dragon is a Demonic Beasts, as long as it is a Demonic Beasts, it has an inner core. The inner core contains the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, and is also the essence of the Demonic Beasts, after consuming it, one"s power will increase greatly." Tang Zheng said.
Ye Yuan also nodded his head in agreement: "But cores of demonic beasts s are only useful to cultivators, because the body of an ordinary person cannot handle so much energy, and cultivators can use their techniques to refine it."
Tang Zheng looked at Ye Yuan with praise. Although he had not cultivated yet, he knew a lot.
Ye Yuan understood the look in his eyes, scratched his head and said: "This is all taught to us by the clan elders, the elders are the people who understand us the most."
"If you"re injured, then rest well." Tang Zheng warned.
Ye Yuan shook her head: "Senior envoy, normally, I would have been injured who knows how many times when I was hunting, although this time it"s a little heavy, it won"t take my life. After the elder returns with medicine and treat me, there won"t be much of a problem."
Tang Zheng did not persuade them anymore. A few of them arrived in front of the Python Dragon"s corpse and their bodies that were around a hundred meters long snaked through the mountain forest.
If an ordinary person were to see this huge monster, they would probably be scared to the point of not daring to move. Only this group of fierce people would dare to so bravely fight against it.
"Sir Envoy, let me do this." Ye Yuan volunteered himself.
Tang Zheng shook his head: "Its scales are extremely tough, ordinary weapons are unable to harm it at all, even for my War Soul Sword, if I do not activate my innate energy, I will not be able to harm it, so let me do it."
Tang Zheng activated his Qi, causing the War Soul Sword to glow black. With a few swipes, the Python Dragon"s stomach was ripped apart.
The Python Dragon"s scales were hard as iron, but the meat inside was very tender.
Ye Yuan said: "The entire body of the Python Dragon is a treasure, its scales can be used as armor, and the meat on its body contains even more intelligence than normal animals, so it is also a good thing for strengthening the muscles and bones. Back then, it ate up our tribe, so we mustered all of our clan"s power to kill it. We used its flesh to help our clansmen build up their muscles and bones, but to no avail. Now, the envoy has finally helped us achieve this wish. "
"Oh, there are actually so many benefits from a Python Dragon." Tang Zheng"s heart was moved, "Then are there any other Demonic Beasts in the Ten Thousand Huge Mountains?"
Tang Zheng"s strength had increased greatly, if he could kill Demonic Beasts and hunt enough cores of demonic beasts, his and Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+"s power would increase by leaps and bounds.
Ye Yuan shook his head in regret: "There are still many ordinary beasts in this mountain, but Demonic Beasts with intelligence like this one is very rare …" Suddenly, he paused and hesitantly said: "However, I have heard the elder mention a forbidden area. It is located in the westernmost of Ten Thousand Huge Mountains, and I heard that there are many Demonic Beasts s within."
Tang Zheng was overjoyed, and asked: "Then do you know the specific situation of that forbidden area?"
Ye Yuan shook his head: "Our clansmen never go to that place, but the elders should know a lot of things."
Tang Zheng made up his mind that he would definitely ask the elders about this place later.
"Tang Zheng, look at that s.h.i.+ny object, is that the Orb?" Suddenly, Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ pointed at a sparkling and translucent fist-sized object within the muscles of the Python Dragon that was split open.
Tang Zheng and Ye Yuan looked over at the same time, if this wasn"t an Orb, then what was it?
Initially, when Tang Zheng consumed the Scarlet Chained Snake"s Beast Core, he only used his fingernail to laugh out loud. However, this Beast Core was countless times bigger than the previous one, and the energy contained within it was obviously incomparable.
Tang Zheng took it out and placed it on his palm.
This was the first time Ye Yuan and Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ saw this thing, and they both opened their eyes wide, like two curious babies.
"s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, quickly consume this...o...b.. It will help with your cultivation." Tang Zheng said.
The Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ pouted and shook his head: "I don"t want, you were the one who killed the Python Dragon, moreover you need to raise your strength even more."
I have already made a breakthrough in my cultivation just now, and am currently in the rank 1 in Foundation Establishment Stage. I have yet to consolidate my strength, so hastily consuming this pellet is not very beneficial for me, as the most suitable for you, since you will be facing danger alone in the future, you must also increase your strength as soon as possible.
After the summer holidays, Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ had to go abroad. Without Tang Zheng by his side, Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ could only rely on himself, so he had to make her strong as much as possible.
However, there was one thing he had lied about, and that was that he could take the Orb now, but he could only use this excuse to persuade Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ to take it. Otherwise, how could a stubborn girl have the heart to take such a treasure?
The Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ did not doubt him. She took the Orb excitedly, opened her mouth wide and swallowed the Orb. Immediately, a huge amount of energy flowed into her eight extraordinary meridians.
"Hurry up and refine this energy." Tang Zheng warned.
Fang s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ immediately sat down cross-legged and channeled her Cloud and Water Method. The Python Dragon"s energy was being refined by her little by little, and her true qi rapidly increased …
