Chapter 28 - 4-Eyed Snake (2/2)
After entering into the Blood Raven Ridge, they could not fly any longer. After all, they were here to find herbs and not to view the scenery. Herbs could definitely not be found in the skies. As such, they all landed on the ground and walked into the densely vegetated forest.
The moon gra.s.s which they wanted to find was a very rare herb which liked to grow in the faeces of the Blood Ravens. A group of people could slowly look for it, if they were lucky, they could find it very quickly. If not, it was also normal for them to find it for a few months. Plus, this job was also very dirty, and not many cultivators were not willing to come. This is also why high grade cultivators were willing to release the mission to allow lower grade cultivators to complete it.
Of course, one must not misunderstand that the Blood Raven Ridge was very safe. Apart from the Blood Ravens, there were also many demonic beasts. The few strong ones could even beat the foundational stage cultivators into escaping. Thankfully, these strong demonic beasts are very rare. The demonic beasts which normally roamed were all weaker, and could be settled by XianTian stage cultivators.
On the first day, everyone searched through many faeces. Apart from countless of insects, they did not find anything. On the second day, it was the same as well. Only on the third day was there a change in situation, where they found a 100 year old moon gra.s.s. A pity, there was a 4-eyed snake protecting it.
4-eyed snake, had 4 eyes on its head, a body of a toad and was over 10 feet wide. It was really strong, and could spit out venomous poison. Cultivators cla.s.sified it as a 2nd level demonic beast. It’s combat prowess was equivalent to a 7th of 8th stage, and was harder to take care off. Especially the poisonous gas which it spat out, it could cover a diameter of about 1000 feet. If a cultivator got hit by it, they would become dizzy, and if it was serious, they could die.
After seeing the beast, everyone’s eyes lit up, and said in their hearts ‘Good, finally there was a chance!’
After discovering the 4-eyed snake, they did not act rashly. But they retreated a distance in sync, then began discussing.
“Guys, although this 4-eyed snake is a little difficult to deal with, but the materials from its body was not too bad. Especially its poison core, many shops are s.n.a.t.c.hing for it. After killing it, we could at least get stuff worth a few thousand spiritual stones. It is just that are you guys willing to work together or~” Han Ling Feng pretended to be neutral and said.
“Of course we will not need to work together!” Gu Long immediately stood out and said “Didn’t we agree the last time? That we wanted to compete to see who was the burden!”
“That’s right, so this time, let us go first. We can let some novice see how an expert is like!” Xuan Wu continued with a cold laughter.
Little Fatty immediately replied in rage “No, why isn’t it us to go first? Just a 4-eyed snake, I just need a few high grade talismans in order to take care of it! It was as easy as lifting my hand!”
As everyone heard, they almost died of anger. High grade talismans, over a hundred spiritual stones for each piece. He could just waste it on a 4-eyed snake which he could take care off himself. Besides, high grade talismans were all made in accordance to the spells of foundational stage cultivators. With just a strike from a foundational stage cultivator, the 4-eyed snake would not even be left with a speck of dust. How would they be able to retrieve any materials to sell.
As such, Han Ling Feng who was at the side quickly persuaded “Junior brother Song, this 4-eyed snake is really too weak, and is not worth your talismans. How about this, let two senior brothers show their abilities first. When we meet stronger beasts later, we’ll let you take it on. How about this?”
“We can still meet even stronger beasts later?” Little Fatty ask stupidly.
“Of course, the Blood Raven Ridge has 4th or 5th level demonic beasts. If we stay here for a few more days, we will be able to spot a 3rd level demonic beasts at least. At that time we will allow you to flaunt your might, how?” Han Ling Feng replied with an apologetic smile. While she was talking, she gave a glance to Xuan Wu and Gu Long, as though she was saying ‘See, I’m helping you to speak’.
Gu Long and Xuan Wu immediately replied with a knowing look, and hurriedly said “Okay okay, it’s getting late already. Let us take care of the 4-eyed snake first! You guys pay close attention!” As he finished, he moved forward and took out his magical tool without waiting for a reply.
