308 Knew the Truth from Applying (2/2)

After about an hour, Gu Xijiu finally found its weakness and stabbed through its mouth into its brain and killed it.

The fight sounded simple but it was extremely dangerous. She would not have won with her original ability and would have ended up becoming its food.

From applying, she knew that her battling skills would improve very quickly.

After the fight, she managed to master some methods, as she summarized the experience and lesson she learned from the fight with the beast.

She had been questioning Long Jialuo and knew that such a poisonous python was present at the second peak of Dark Forest. However, she did not expect that she would have to face it much earlier…

She took a short rest and started searching around the ruined cave.

Everyone knew that the poisonous and giant beast enjoys guarding something. As this giant python was big, strong and was hiding in the cave, it probably was hiding something precious…

She was a professional in searching, thus she quickly found a white jade casket where the giant python was crouching on.

The white jade casket was not big and had a complexed built-in lock.

Gu Xijiu probed the white jade casket for a moment and after she confirmed that it was not poisonous, she lifted it to take a look and brought it close to her ear to listen to any noises. She felt that it had something thin within.

What was it that the poisonous python was guarding?

Could it be a medicinal plant or something precious?

The built-in lock of the white jade casket was extremely complicated but it was not a big deal for a veteran like Gu Xijiu. She took only a while to break it apart and used a thin stick to pry open its cover.

There were not any hidden weapons or a mechanism that shot out poison. So, she took a look and saw a neatly folded silk item.

The color of the silk was old and fading, obviously, it was at least a few years old.

After confirming that the silk was not poisonous, Gu Xijiu took out the silk and slowly opened it.
