Extraordinary Cultivation Continent

Chapter 4 Battle against the Spirit Snake

After stopping practicing, Zhang Chaofan stretched out and stood up. Sighing that risks and opportunities coexist. I thought to myself: "I must take revenge on that dead snake, it almost killed me." He just thought about it and did not intend to seek revenge immediately. He decided that he would be more sure to trouble the spirit snake again if he had the opportunity in the future.

He removed the stones blocking the entrance of the cave and walked out of the cave. The dazzling sunlight shines on Zhang Chaofan's body bit by bit through the gaps in the treetops and grass, mottled and blurred, making him look like a leopard dormant in the grass from a distance, waiting for the opportunity to choose someone to devour.

After climbing to the top of a nearby big tree without any cover, I looked up and looked around and found that I was in a huge sinkhole. Fortunately, there is a thick layer of dead leaves and tall weeds growing in such a deep sinkhole. Otherwise, when being knocked down, he would not just be injured and dying, but would have turned into a meat pie long ago. Before Lao Zhang from the Hua Kingdom traveled through time, his soul had already disappeared before his soul arrived.

This sinkhole is surrounded by cliffs, and there is no way to go up. Because his realm is still far from being able to fly in the air, if he wants to go up, he has to spend a lot of effort. Fortunately, the injuries he suffered have healed and his body is strong again. Not to mention physical endurance, that's a feat. The realm has just been raised by two levels, and the strength must have increased several times. However, since I haven't tested it, I can't figure out how many times it has increased.

He noticed that there were many vines hanging down from the top of the pit. As long as he found a vine that stretched straight from the top to the bottom of the pit, or a few vines that could be connected, and these vines were tough enough, he could use these vines to climb up. , get out of trouble. He stayed on the treetop, looking around, observing carefully, looking for a suitable place to climb.

After a while of observation, I finally identified a vine suitable for climbing. It hangs directly from the ground on the top of the pit to a height less than two meters from the bottom of the sinkhole. You can reach it with just a slight pick. However, this vine also has a very bad thing. The branches and leaves growing on it are too lush. If there are snakes and insects hiding in it, it is not easy to find. In addition, it was very close to the place where he fell, only two or three feet away. It was possible to encounter his enemy, the third-order spiritual snake that knocked him into the sinkhole. He had no confidence that he could defeat the spiritual snake easily, so it was best to avoid it if possible. Of course, if you really encounter it, you can only face the difficulty and try to break the boat. At worst, you will fight to the death. According to the current strength estimate, at the worst, he can save his life and escape intact.

He took out a rusty broadsword from the ring, held the knife in his hand, and cautiously approached the vine. In addition to a lot of rust, this knife also had a small section of the blade broken off. He bought this knife at a market stall in Bashan Town not long ago and spent a very small amount of spiritual stones. According to the stall owner, "he got the knife in a hidden cave in Bashan." At that time, Chaofan felt that the knife was not expensive, and he did not have a good weapon. The knife could be used, so he hesitated and paid the spirit stone to buy it. After returning home, he studied the knife for a long time, but couldn't figure out what it was. He tried to squeeze a drop of blood from his finger and dripped it on the knife, but there was no reaction. In short, this knife is now It's just an ordinary knife. He took the knife and cut off a corner of the rockery. Unexpectedly, a small piece of the rockery was cut off. When he saw that the knife had not changed at all, he concluded that the knife should be a good piece before it was damaged. His precious sword is much sharper than ordinary swords even now, and can be compared to mid-level spiritual weapons. If you have the chance, you can ask the weapon master to help repair it. If it can be repaired successfully, you may get a very powerful sword.

He held the rusty knife tightly in his hand, braced himself, and walked towards the vine vigilantly. He became increasingly cautious, as he had to pass through the spot where he had fallen a few days ago to reach the vines. When he fell a few days ago, he lost a lot of blood, which could attract insects, snakes, and beasts. Just two or three feet away from the fall point, Chaofan smelled a fishy smell in the air, and he was somewhat familiar with the smell. He cursed in his heart: This beast is really waiting for him there! It seems that a battle is inevitable.

Zhang Chaofan really met the enemy who knocked him into the sinkhole and almost killed him, but it aroused his strong desire to fight. There was no fear in my heart, I just felt that my whole body was boiling with blood, and I felt an urge to rush forward directly. But he soon calmed down again. This was related to the character of Hua Guo Zhang. Lao Zhang's sixty years of life experience had long ago allowed him to develop a style of dealing with things that are calm and calm. Maintain a calm and normal mind in everything. He made a preliminary assessment of his current strength and felt that he could still deal with the third-level spirit beast. Although it was a tough battle and required a hard fight, it was not impossible to fight.

Even though the spirit beast's body is tough and cannot easily break through the spirit snake's armor, there is no problem in saving one's life. He stood quietly in the grass, his brain calculating rapidly. Although it would be better to be invincible and win easily, he must ensure that he is not injured. I had the idea of ​​​​a sneak attack in my mind, and wanted to try to see if I could sneak a blow to the spirit snake, so that it would be injured first, and then it would be easier to fight.

Let's first understand the strength of the third-level spirit beast. Spirit beasts are beasts at a much lower level than monster beasts. They have just developed their initial spiritual intelligence. Their intelligence is about the same as that of a three- or four-year-old human child. They mainly rely on instinct to act. The strength of spirit beasts is only at the level of human Qi-training monks, while the strength of monster beasts is at least equivalent to that of human foundation-building monks. There are top-level monsters that are comparable to those in the Earthly Immortal Realm. If they are higher than that, they are not called monsters. Called a demon.

Third-level spirit beasts still belong to the low-level category, but their combat power depends on the species. The combat power of spirit beasts such as lions and tigers are at the top of the same level. Generally speaking, carnivorous spiritual beasts are generally stronger than herbivorous spiritual beasts. Snakes are somewhat special spiritual beasts. Their elongated bodies are very flexible, but it is precisely this elongated shape that makes them vulnerable to attacks. They often have trouble looking at their heads and tail. But many snakes are poisonous. This green snake has an obvious triangular head. You can tell it is poisonous at a glance. Therefore, when Chaofan fights with it, he must be careful not to inhale the poisonous gas it sprays, and he must be careful not to be bitten by the spirit snake.

Chaofan is preparing for protection and sneak attack. Protection is to protect oneself, and sneak attack is to sneak attack on the opponent.

First, he found a mask from Najie and covered his mouth and nose to prevent inhaling poison gas during the battle; and sprinkled some realgar powder all over his body.

Secondly, bend down and pick up many rocks of different sizes on the ground. Among them, there are five small stones, only the size of goose eggs, but they are all sharp-edged. These stones are suitable for use as hidden weapons and are best used for sneak attacks. There are several large rocks as big as blue balls, which are suitable for hitting the spirit snake at close range.

After making these preparations, Zhang Chaofan approached the spiritual snake little by little with the help of the cover of grass and trees, not daring to make any noise. My heart was beating violently in my chest, just shy of beating out. After all, this is the first time he has faced such a disgusting snake alone!

He kept approaching quietly until he was about ten feet away from the green snake, then he stopped. He took out three angular stones the size of goose eggs, clamped them between the fingers of his right hand, and prepared to throw them. Looking up at the big snake, I roughly estimated that the big snake was about the thickness of an adult man's thigh and about five or six feet long. They were coiled together with the snake's head in the middle. They closed their eyes slightly and were always vigilant. This is the instinct of animals in the wild. Zhang Chaofan moved his body, looking for an unobstructed gap through which he could throw stones and give the spirit snake a hard blow.

After many moves, I finally found an ideal place. At this location, there was an unobstructed gap that led directly to the snake's head and was on the side of the snake's head. In this way, the moment the big snake senses the attack and turns its head, the stone attack has already arrived. Chaofan understands that the scales of this blue spiritual snake are so strong that it is difficult to break through the defense with light stone attacks. Only by attacking the weak point of the snake's eyes can it have a miraculous effect.

Zhang Chaofan estimated the distance between the two, the flying speed of the stone, the flight time, the speed and height of the snake's head raising, etc. He focused all his spiritual energy and physical strength on the stone in his right hand, and used a hidden weapon technique to throw the stone away. The stone flew toward the big snake with a burst of sound, as fast as lightning.

Just as Zhang Chaofan estimated, the snake reacted immediately. It raised its head and turned around. When it saw the flying rocks, it instinctively ducked back. This was also within the range of Zhang Chaofan's estimation, because the snake thrown out by Zhang Chaofan When the stone approached the snake, it formed a horizontal line. Originally, the first stone on the left was pointed at the snake's eye. The snake instinctively retreated, so the second stone was pointed at the snake's eye. The snake also After reacting extremely quickly, he realized something was wrong and moved the snake's head back again, avoiding the second stone. As a result, there was only a "pop" sound, and then the green snake let out a shrill cry.

It turned out that the third stone filled with strength was waiting. By coincidence, the third stone collided with Snake Eyes. Due to pain and anger, the big snake's intact snake eyes spurted icy cold light, and the other snake's eye was bleeding, and the snake's tail smashed towards Zhang Chaofan at an indescribable speed. Zhang Chaofan saw something bad, and quickly dodged to avoid the frontal attack. He raised his sword and struck backhand with his sword, hitting the snake. There was only a "ping" sound, and the snake's tail was hit and bounced back.

It bounced back along the snake's tail, leaving a blood line and emitting a bloody smell. Looking at the place where the snake's body was cut, many scales were broken into pieces, and the flesh, flesh and bones in the scales were also injured. The section of the snake's body behind the wound was drooping and could no longer be used as a weapon to attack Zhang Chaofan. Zhang Chaofan moved closer to the big snake, keeping his eyes on the big snake to prevent it from attacking. The big snake felt the threat of death and hissed the snake message, threatening Zhang Chaofan and not letting him get too close.

Zhang Chaofan held the big knife tightly, took out a big stone, poured enough spiritual power into it, and threw it at the snake when the snake was unprepared. This time the sound was louder, and there was a loud "boom" and a burst of dead grass and rotten leaves. After the dead grass and rotten leaves dispersed, I saw that the big snake had a large dent in the seven-inch area. Although it was not completely broken, it is not difficult to imagine that the bones and internal organs here have been completely broken. It seems that because the distance between the two sides was very close, Chaofan took advantage of his unpreparedness and suddenly attacked. The big snake was seriously injured and could not avoid it, so he was hit.

Seeing that the big snake is now only dying. Zhang Chaofan walked over cautiously, and with great effort, he cut off the huge snake head with his knife, and collected a lot of snake blood with a jade bottle, which was a good treasure for body training. Put the snake body in a bag and put it into the Najie, ready to take it back to the family and cook snake soup for relatives at home to replenish the body.

After doing this, Chaofan searched around at the bottom of the sinkhole and found more than a dozen elixir plants that were just ripe, as well as a small amount of spiritual fruits. He picked them all and put them into the Najie. Then, he came to the selected vine, reached out and grabbed the vine, and shook it vigorously from side to side for a while. The purpose of shaking was to drive away any insects and snakes that might be hiding, so as to avoid risks. After confirming that there was no danger, he grabbed the vine and climbed up bit by bit.
