Fighting with fire shadow

"Whoosh!"

The moment the lid of the bamboo basket was lifted, a blood-red python as thick as a small bowl suddenly rushed out of the bamboo basket.

"Pfft!"

Before the blood python had time to launch an attack on Ximen Cheng, a cold sword light flashed across as fast as lightning, accurately striking its seven-inch vital point, cutting it into two pieces with one sword.

"Crash..."

Seeing this, Ximen Cheng quickly grabbed the two sections of the snake's body that were still twisting and twitching, and poured all the blood of the blood python into the basin.

"Rong'er, I want to keep the snake blood for practice, and I'll leave the snake meat to you to cook."

Huang Rong smiled and said: "Brother Cheng, just wait, Ronger will make snake soup for you right now."

Because Huang Rong grew up on Peach Blossom Island, she occasionally caught sea snakes to make snake soup. She was not as afraid of snakes as ordinary girls.

At this time, the inn's kitchen was already idle. Huang Rong only spent a couple of silver to rent the right to use the kitchen from the shopkeeper.

"Bang! Bang!"

While Huang Rong was preparing the snake soup, Ximen Cheng summoned two shadow clones to protect the law, then picked up a basin filled with snake blood and drank from it.

This precious snake cultivated by Liang Ziwen has been taking various kinds of natural materials and earthly treasures all year round. The smell of blood in its blood is not that strong, but is filled with a fishy medicinal fragrance, which allows Ximen Cheng to Barely tolerated.

"Rumble..."

When Ximen Cheng drank the snake blood in one breath, the warm snake blood suddenly turned into streams of pure energy and spread throughout his body, causing his meridians to swell and ache.

Ximen Cheng felt the pure energy. He stretched out his hands without changing his expression and quickly formed the hand seals to absorb the Dou Qi. His breathing gradually became smoother. The faint Dou Qi in his body moved in response to his heart and quickly entangled. He took in the powerful pure medicine and started refining it crazily.

Under Ximen Cheng's full urging, "Blast Force" reached its limit, rapidly converting the majestic medicinal power in his body into fighting spirit bit by bit.

As time went by, the medicinal power in Ximen Cheng's body was continuously transformed into Dou Qi, and all the meridians in his body were filled with Dou Qi, swelling to a critical point that could no longer be increased.

"Shh!"

Feeling the fighting spirit in his body that was about to burst out of his body, Ximen Cheng's handprints suddenly changed. His index thumbs met each other, his middle fingers touched each other, and the ten fingers formed a strange handprint.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

The moment Ximen Cheng's handprints changed, a powerful suction force appeared out of thin air, and the surging fighting spirit in his body suddenly shrank towards his lower abdomen.

The pale white Dou Qi in the meridians throughout the body began to shrink in unison, and when all the Dou Qi shrank to the lower abdomen, the pale white Dou Qi had begun to turn into a milky white color.

"Give it to me!"

Ximen Cheng's eyes suddenly opened wide, and he used all his strength to control the fighting energy in his body to continuously compress and solidify, so that the fighting energy gradually turned into a liquid.

"boom!!!"

When the liquefied Dou Qi was compressed to the limit, Ximen Cheng felt his body explode, his whole body was shaken, and a palm-sized Dou Qi cyclone appeared out of thin air.

Ximen Cheng gently exhaled a breath of turbid air, slowly closed his eyes, and gradually sunk his mind into his body.

After a cultivator breaks through to the One-Star Fighter, they will gain the ability to "see within." The higher the strength, the more thorough the exploration of the situation inside the body.

In Ximen Cheng's perception, there was a palm-sized milky white cyclone slowly rotating in his lower abdomen. On the periphery of the cyclone, there was a layer of nebula-like milky white energy gas wrapped around it.

Although this Dou Qi whirlpool is only the size of a palm, the Dou Qi energy contained in it is more than ten times stronger than the Dou Qi energy at the ninth stage of Dou Qi.

Moreover, after Ximen Cheng broke through to the One-Star Fighter, the medicinal power of the precious snake blood in his body has not yet been completely absorbed. The Dou Zhi Cyclone is constantly refining and absorbing these medicinal powers, causing its volume to slowly increase.

After more than an hour of practice, Ximen Cheng finally absorbed the last trace of medicinal power in his body, and his cultivation level was also upgraded to a two-star fighter.

After Ximen Cheng finished refining the medicinal power of the precious snake blood, he saw that Huang Rong had not returned yet, so he was not in a hurry to stop practicing. Instead, he continued to run "Blast of Wind" to stabilize his sharply increased cultivation level.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Brother Cheng, the snake soup is ready. Can I come in now?"

Not long after, the door of the room rang, followed by Huang Rong's pleasant voice from outside the door.

"Boom! Boom!"

Upon hearing this, Ximen Cheng first raised his hand and dismissed the two shadow clones responsible for protecting the law. Then he stood up and stepped forward to open the door and let Huang Rong in.

After Huang Rong walked into the room with a casserole, she opened the lid with pride and said: "Brother Cheng, come and try Ronger's secret snake soup. Fortunately, the back kitchen of this inn has enough ingredients, otherwise it would have been in vain. What a waste of such good ingredients.”

"Hmm~"

The moment Huang Rong opened the lid of the pot, Ximen Cheng felt an alluring aroma coming to his nose. He swallowed involuntarily and said, "It smells so good!"

"Brother Cheng, be careful of the burn."

When Huang Rong saw Ximen Cheng's greedy look, the smile on her pretty face became brighter. She first filled him with a bowl of steaming snake soup and handed it to him carefully.

"Huh~"

Ximen Cheng blew gently twice and then took a sip of the milk-like thick soup. Suddenly, a fresh flavor exploded on his tongue, allowing him to taste an unprecedented delicious taste.

"It's delicious! It's delicious! Ronger, your cooking skills are so good."

"?(′?`?)"

"Brother Cheng, slow down, there are still many here!"

Huang Rong looked at Ximen Cheng devouring the food and couldn't help but support his chin with both hands, happily watching his somewhat "bold" eating look.

I have to say that Huang Rong's cooking skills are truly top-notch, ranking among the best in the entire Central Plains.

It’s no wonder that in the original plot, Hong Qigong, who has tasted all the delicacies in the world, will be defeated by Huang Rong’s various delicacies, and even use the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms as cooking money.

Maybe it was because Ximen Cheng had just broken through the Dou Zhe and his body needed to replenish energy, so his appetite increased greatly. Except for Huang Rong who ate a bowl of snake soup, the rest of the pot of snake soup went into his stomach.

"Huhuhu..."

However, after eating the snake soup made by Huang Rong, Ximen Cheng felt something strange. His face turned red as if he was drunk, and his breathing became somewhat rapid.

"Brother Cheng, are you okay?"

Huang Rong also noticed something strange about Ximen Cheng, and waved her little hand in front of her worriedly.

"Brother Cheng, come and play~"

However, in Ximen Cheng's eyes, Huang Rong was making some provocative moves towards him, which made his remaining sanity begin to blur: "No! This snake soup is poisonous!"
