Chapter 38 Fighting the One-Horned Python
When Luo Shou heard this, a sad look appeared on his face.
"Shuang'er, I don't know that there is little hope, but with our two realms and cultivation, I don't care if we enter the cave and escape death. There is basically no hope of building a foundation in this life, but you, Shuang'er, are different. Although your true spiritual root It's nothing in the five major sects, but after all, there is at least a 10 to 20% chance of successfully building the foundation. However, among the monks we have friends with, there are few who can practice basic spells to great perfection. The most important thing is Xiao Lin The fact that he is willing to take risks to save us this time shows that this person is very emotional, and such a person usually does not make promises easily, but as long as he has the ability, he will definitely fulfill his promise, and he can do it within three years. As time passes from the third level of Qi Refining to the sixth level of Qi Refining, there must be something unusual. People like him will definitely enter the cave. As long as he enters the cave, at least Shuang'er you will have a glimmer of hope. "
After hearing his brother's explanation, Luo Shuang didn't speak. He just looked at the sky in the distance blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.
After separating from the Luo brothers and sisters, Xiao Lin did not continue to practice in the Tianlu Mountains, but flew towards Wuyin Immortal City. After more than a year of trials, except for water archery, his basic spells included the other four. Zhong has already cultivated to the Great Perfection, and there is no point in continuing to practice. For him, it is more important to practice as soon as possible and strive to break through the seventh level of Qi refining. After all, only in the later stages of Qi refining can he practice elementary spells.
Another reason is that there are only ten days until the auction that Luo Shou told him about will be held. He has to rush back to the fairy city to exchange the materials obtained from hunting monsters into spiritual stones to prepare for this auction. Make some preparations.
Seven days later, Xiao Lin suddenly drove the magic weapon and landed in a valley. From a distance, the valley looked like the mouth of a giant beast. In the valley, there were countless blue rocks that looked like fangs. A black river cuts through the valley.
The main reason why Xiao Lin landed in the Green Teeth Valley was because he had promised Gu Langzhong of Yaowangpu that if possible, he would kill a one-horned python for him and take out the snake's gallbladder so that Gu Langzhong could save his daughter.
Originally, Xiao Lin was not prepared to complete this matter so quickly, but once he was ready to participate in the auction, he would leave the Hidden Mist Fairy City and practice alone until the cave opened. On the other hand, with his current strength, even if He should have a good chance of winning against a one-horned python, not to mention that the whole body of the one-horned python is full of treasures. The horn and scales can be used to refine weapons, and the bones, flesh and blood are all good materials for refining medicine. For Yuan Dan, a small amount of one-horned python blood needs to be added to neutralize the medicinal properties.
Anyway, there are still a few days left before the auction, which should be enough time for me to finish hunting the one-horned python and rush back.
The one-horned python is a mortal mid-level monster. It is proficient in wind spells and wind blades. Moreover, ordinary magic weapons covered in scale armor cannot cause harm to it at all. In addition, the poisonous mist it spits, with the help of wind spells, it is even more powerful. The power is doubled, which makes the one-horned python a top-notch existence even among ordinary mid-level monsters. Generally, cultivators in the late stage of Qi refining do not dare to provoke it easily.
It is precisely because cultivators in the late stage of Qi refining do not dare to provoke them, and cultivators in the foundation-building stage do not look down upon this mortal level monster, so except for the occasional disciples from Dancao Mountain who come to hunt them in order to refine the Yuanhui Dan. , there are very few monks in the entire Misty Hidden Fairy City who come here.
Xiao Lin landed on a green rock and searched for traces of the one-horned python. The entire Green Teeth Valley was a hundred miles in radius, and there were many towering ancient trees growing in it. The one-horned python liked to stay in those big trees. On the tree, swallowing up the passing birds and beasts.
After a while, Xiao Lin flew up. He did not fly with a weapon, but used the Flowing Cloud Lighting Technique. Now his Flowing Cloud Lighting Technique was combined with the Wind Controlling Technique. He walked like a ghost, and his body was like a ghost. The shape flickers east and west, and ordinary people may only see a faint flash of blue smoke.
A few miles ahead, Xiao Lin saw a forest shrouded in heavy fog. The area was not large, only a hundred feet in diameter. As soon as Xiao Lin saw the dark fog, he knew that there must be a one-horned python entrenched in it. Only this kind of monster likes to cover its territory with poisonous gas when resting.
But Xiao Lin was still a little confused. He was worried that there was more than one one-horned python in the woods. If he picked one alone, he would be 70 to 80% sure, but if he faced two, he would have no choice but to run away. , of course, Xiao Lin would not foolishly dive into the one-horned python's lair to verify his guess.
Xiao Lin hid his figure on a big tree dozens of feet away from the woods. He stared at the woods and remained motionless. This was a habit he had developed when he was a child and went hunting with his father in the mountains. Before hunting prey, You must first observe the surrounding environment and the habits of the prey. Only in this way can you kill with one strike without putting yourself in danger.
Two days later, when Xiao Lin saw a one-horned python three to four feet thick as a bucket emerging from the woods, he couldn't help but secretly rejoiced. It turned out that there was not only one one-horned python in the woods, but two. In Xiao Lin's opinion, there should be one male and one male, and they are having sex in the woods.
If Xiao Lin had entered the woods recklessly before, he would have been immediately attacked by two one-horned pythons, and he would have ended up in a miserable state.
However, it was precisely because of his suspicion that Xiao Lin squatted outside the woods for two days. After the female one-horned python with a red horn left, Xiao Lin waited for another two hours before confirming that there was only one male one-horned python in the woods. After that, Xiao Lin floated down and swept towards the woods.
On the branch of a towering ancient tree hugged by several people, a huge python as thick as a bucket and five feet long was sleeping soundly. On its forehead was a three-foot-long pitch black horn, shining with black light. As it breathed in and out while sleeping, large amounts of black mist spewed out from its nostrils, shrouding the entire tree in it.
A solemn look appeared on Xiao Lin's face. He patted the cloth bag on his waist, and a foot-long knife jumped out. As Xiao Lin pinched the spell, the knife swelled in the wind and became three feet in size. At the same time, it was shrouded in thick smoke. With a thick green light, Xiao Lin said "Go" and the three-foot-long knife whizzed out, slashing towards the sleeping one-horned python in the air.
On the palm of Xiao Lin's left hand, a fireball the size of a human head was burning, releasing scorching heat. Almost as soon as the long knife flew out, the fireball also flew towards the one-horned python silently.
The one-horned python that was sleeping soundly felt the danger instinctively. Its triangular eyes suddenly opened, and the snake letter in its mouth spurted out three feet long, but in its eyes, a long knife with layers of phantoms, fiercely He slashed towards its head, and before it hit it, it already brought a huge amount of spiritual pressure.
At the moment when the long sword was about to slash the one-horned python, a black shadow flashed past, and then Xiao Lin saw that his seven-edged sword was knocked away. This black shadow was the one-horned python. Slender tail.
Xiao Lin was taken aback. He didn't expect the one-horned python's reaction speed to be so terrifying. Even during his sneak attack, he was easily blocked by it.
"Boom" Although the one-horned python bounced away from the Seven-Edge Slash, it was unable to escape the fireball behind it and was hit hard by the fireball.
"Hiss." Even though the one-horned python's skin was thick and thick, and it was covered with pitch-black scales, it was blown up by Xiao Lin's Dzogchen-level fireball technique. The scorching temperature and the impact of the explosion still made it... A large piece of his body was blackened, and several scales that were hit by the fireball were also broken into pieces.
The one-horned python couldn't help hissing in pain, and its head the size of a washbasin stood upright. A pair of triangular eyes immediately locked onto Xiao Lin's figure.
But before it could react, several fireballs formed a line and hit it.
Countless small cyclones suddenly appeared around the one-horned python. These small cyclones rotated crazily, and then the huge body of the one-horned python shot out like an arrow from a string.
The fireballs sent out by Xiao Lin immediately exploded on the branches, and large branches immediately burned, and half of the branches and leaves of the towering ancient tree were removed at once.
"The speed of this wind monster is really terrifying." Although Xiao Lin had overestimated the strength of the one-horned python, he still felt that he had underestimated it when he actually faced it.
The wind control technique instantly blessed his feet. With a slight flash, he went ten feet away and appeared on another big tree. Where he originally stood, countless leaves broke silently. , Xiao Lin’s eyelids twitched when he saw it.
"Wind Blade Technique?" Xiao Lin was shocked. The Wind Blade Technique released by the one-horned python was equivalent to a basic human Dzogchen-level spell. It could be cast instantly, which made his face become more solemn.
After several ups and downs, Xiao Lin took the one-horned python to a stone forest, which was more than ten miles away from the forest. Xiao Lin did this mainly because he was worried that there were other one-horned pythons nearby, in case they were killed. If they can summon the same kind to each other, they are really in danger.
Obviously, Xiao Lin succeeded in irritating the one-horned python. He looked like he would not give up until he swallowed Xiao Lin alive. Wherever a person and a snake passed by, the bluestone that was several meters wide would only be twisted by the one-horned python. The body hit and exploded immediately.
After arriving in the stone forest, Xiao Lin turned around numbly, and raised the Seven-Edged Slash high in his hand. Magic power poured into the Seven-Edged Slash crazily. The magic weapon suddenly grew to the size of three feet, and it was filled with green light and condensed. It turned into a green knife shadow about ten feet long.
"Bastard, take a move from me." Xiao Lin shouted angrily, and suddenly slashed down the long sword in his hand. At the moment Xiao Lin slashed down, there were seven shadows of the sword, connected together, and they fell almost indiscriminately. .
The one-horned python was caught off guard. It seemed that it did not expect that Xiao Lin, who had been running away, would stop and fight back. Therefore, it only had time to turn its head a few points before its body was slashed by the Qi of the Seven-Edge Slash.
"Hiss." The seven-edged slash slashed at the body of the one-horned python, and a sound of metal and iron was heard. However, this blow contained Xiao Lin's pure magic power. Even the one-horned python's amazing defense was defeated. The cut opened a foot-long gap, and blood spurted out, but the one-horned python was still not cut off, which surprised Xiao Lin.
Xiao Lin suddenly felt a sense of panic. Almost with a thought, three small emerald green shields were blocked in front of him, followed by three crisp impact sounds of "Puff".
