Chapter 371 (1/2)
”Why is there a group of large snakes?”
Li Fuchen didn't act recklessly. His intuition told him that the giant water jar-sized snake wasn't going to be easy to deal with. It was probably at the strength level of the Reincarnation Realm.
Hiss Hiss Hiss…
The snakes had noticed Li Fuchen. The giant snake which was the boss had raised its head high like a pillar. It glared intently at Li Fuchen with its snake eyes that were filled with terrifying murderous intent.
”This group of large snakes is probably having astonis.h.i.+ng physiques due to this mystic yang land. But all their demonic qi has been cleansed.”
The mystic yang qi had the ability to dispel evil qi. Demonic qi was also considered a kind of evil qi. After residing in this place for a long period of time, the demonic qi within the demonic beasts were gradually dispelled. Of course, Li Fuchen reckoned that these snakes weren't of high cla.s.ses in the beginning. If they were cla.s.s 5 demonic beasts, the mystic yang qi wouldn't be able to dispel their demonic qi, let alone cleansing them without them knowing.
But the Spirit Cleansing Herb was different. For demonic beasts and demons, the Spirit Cleansing Herb was a dose of poison. After they consumed it, even if they didn't die, they would shed a layer of skin. This was why the Spirit Cleansing Herb could only grow in places with high levels of mystic yang essence. The mystic yang qi contained within was shockingly concentrated.
”I must obtain the spirit cleansing herb. Let me try out the strength of that boss snake.”
Li Fuchen walked over step by step.
Hiss Hiss Hiss…
Apart from the boss snake, the rest of the orangish-yellow snakes had moved and they lunged at Li Fuchen like a storm.
”Get lost!”
With a wave of his hand, a whole group of orangish-yellow snakes were swept away. The weaker ones were immediately turned into blood mist while the stronger ones were cut up into segments. In the face of a Reincarnation Realm strength, all those weaker than Reincarnation Realm were just like ants.
Rumble!
The boss orangish-yellow snake moved. When its water jar-sized body moved, it was like a meteor blasting over. This power was definitely at the 3rd or 4th level of Reincarnation Realm.
”What strength.”
The boss snake attacked with a speed so fast that Li Fuchen's awareness had reacted but his body reacted a little slower. Forming a fist with his right hand and bursting out with dragon elephant power, Li Fuchen blasted with his fist.
There was a ripple and Li Fuchen was sent flying back. When he landed, his foot broke the surface of the valley.
”It has the strength of a 3rd level Reincarnation Realm.”
Earlier on, Li Fuchen didn't activate the Metal Bone Fist. After bursting out with the dragon elephant power, his strength was also at the 3rd level of Reincarnation Realm. But he was slightly weaker than the boss snake.
Li Fuchen's fist was enveloped by a layer of dark gold qi. He stomped on the surface and rushed at the boss snake again.
The boss snake flailed its tail to whip at Li Fuchen.
Bang Bang Bang…
A man and a snake started a frenzied battle.
Overall, Li Fuchen's strength was stronger than the boss snake, but due to the excessively large size of the boss snake's body, Li Fuchen's fist was only able to cause some superficial injury.
”Metal Bone Soul Split!”
The skin of the fist cracked while dark gold molten qi gushed out. Li Fuchen then slammed his fist at the forehead of the boss snake.
Crackle!
The head of the boss snake dented inwards and its consciousness got a little stunned.
Crackle Crackle!
Striking while the iron was hot, Li Fuchen launched a barrage of fist strikes on the head of the boss snake. Each of his fists contained large amount of dragon elephant power.
Hiss!!!
The boss snake lifted its head and hissed out loud. Its body burst out with a layer of yellow light.
”Not good, this extraordinary strength.”
Li Fuchen considered his own qi power to be regular strength, while the dragon elephant power was considered as extraordinary strength. It was obvious that the boss snake also possessed extraordinary strength. Once the boss snake activated its extraordinary strength, Li Fuchen was no longer a match.
Boom!
There was a violent qi wave explosion that sent Li Fuchen flying and cras.h.i.+ng into the side of the valley.
After activating the extraordinary strength, the boss snake's overall strength increased from 3rd level Reincarnation Realm to 5th level Reincarnation Realm. Its strength could easily crush Li Fuchen.
After vomiting a mouthful of blood, Li Fuchen jolted his body and jumped out from the side of the valley.
If he didn't have the Silver Scale Armor, that attack earlier would have claimed half his life.
”It didn't use its extraordinary strength at the beginning and only used it when it was nearly killed by me. It seems like its extraordinary strength is limited.”
How could Li Fuchen have known that the orangish-yellow snakes didn't have any cultivation techniques and could only rely on gathering extraordinary strength? It was obvious that they would have a much lesser capacity for such extraordinary strength.
Taking advantage of the fact that he had the Silver Scale Armor, Li Fuchen rushed at the boss snake again.
Just as Li Fuchen expected, after sending Li Fuchen into flight a few more times later, the boss snake's extraordinary strength started to weaken. The yellow light was getting dimmer and at the latter part of the battle, it was already negligible.
”Die!”
Li Fuchen leaped high and used the downward momentum to blast his fist on the head of the boss snake.
Crackle!
The originally injured head of the boss snake instantly burst out and died on the spot.
”Such concentrated blood. What a pity.” Li Fuchen's face flashed with an extreme dilemma.
Without qi, he couldn't extract the orangish-yellow snake's essence blood.
This boss snake was a cla.s.s 5 demonic beast that possessed extraordinary strength, its essence blood was definitely filled with energy. Cla.s.s 5 high-tier demonic beasts might not be comparable with this boss snake. It was truly a waste of resources if one didn't extract the essence blood.
Just as Li Fuchen was feeling regretful, the Spirit Cleansing Herb on the high land suddenly emitted an extremely resplendent bright yellow light. In the next moment, the boss snake's blood was turned into streaks of crystal yellow qi.
Li Fuchen could see that this crystal yellow qi was the extracted essence blood.
”The Spirit Cleansing Herb is absorbing the boss snake's essence blood?” Li Fuchen was surprised.
After a few breaths, the yellow qi from the boss snake body was absorbed while the Spirit Cleansing Herb on the high land was experiencing some changes. The color had turned from bright yellow to crystal yellow. It was just like a stalk of yellow crystal herb.
”The Spirit Cleansing Herb has ripened. So that is why.” Li Fuchen was enlightened.
