726 King 2 (1/2)

Zhao Feng held his breath and didn’t make any rash movements as he inspected the surroundings of the tree.

The aura near the tall tree was indeed different. There were no other animals or insects within several hundred meters, and it was dead-silent. Zhao Feng suddenly felt cold, as if something dangerous had locked on to him.

Sii! Whoosh!

A long shadow suddenly shot out from the branches along with a bloodthirsty aura.

Zhao Feng’s heart jumped as he caught sight of a giant snake with his left eye. The color and aura of it were the same as the forest. The color of the snake’s eyes was red, and its mouth was wider than a barrel.

With a gust of wind and dirt, the mouth of the snake instantly appeared in front of Zhao Feng.

It was just too fast. Zhao Feng was frightened and quickly retreated, but that wasn’t enough to evade the snake’s attack.

Weng~~

A thin layer of delicate scales appeared on Zhao Feng’s body.

“Fuck off!” Zhao Feng circulated the Mystic Ice Scale Race bloodline as a long spear appeared in his hand, which then stabbed into the snake’s mouth.

Shu~~~ Peng!

The Ice Imperial Spear was only able to sink half an inch into the mouth before the recoil pushed Zhao Feng back several meters.

Ceng!

The Wings of Wind and Lightning behind Zhao Feng’s back fluttered as he used the trees nearby as cover. At the same time, his God’s Spiritual Eye started to inspect the snake.

“Dammit, this snake probably isn’t a beast anymore. It has its own intelligence, and it can absorb the essence of Heaven and Earth. It’s probably a Yao beast now,” Zhao Feng took in a cold breath.

Due to the environment of the Ancient Dream Realm, how could the living beings here be comparable to the real world? One had to know that even a wisp of aura from here was beneficial to those at the True Lord Rank, and the flesh of the animals here could strengthen those at the Origin Core Realm.

From the clash just now, one could see how strong the giant snake was.

“This guy’s body is extremely strong, and my strength is limited in the Ancient Dream Realm….” Zhao Feng’s eyes twinkled. At the moment, he wasn’t the snake’s opponent in a head-on fight.

Sii! Sii!

Frost appeared on the giant snake’s mouth as it hissed and stared at Zhao Feng with eyes of hatred.

“Luckily, this giant snake doesn’t know any techniques,” Zhao Feng let out a breath.

He retreated a bit further as a bow appeared in his hand. Zhao Feng was just about to use the Sky Locking Bow when a screech came from the air. Zhao Feng felt the aura of a familiar beast.

Whoosh!

A large, ancient Yao bird flew downward and headed straight toward the fruits on the tree.

Siiiii~~~~

The giant snake was extremely angry. It charged at the bird and no longer cared about Zhao Feng.

“It’s that bird!” Zhao Feng revealed a weird look. He had met this bird before when he just started walking around in the Ancient Dream Realm. At that moment, he was greatly scared of the bird since he could barely even walk.

However, Zhao Feng’s current body, bloodline, and soul were countless times stronger than back then, and he now had the Mystic Ice Scaled Race bloodline, decreasing the repulsion of the Ancient Dream Realm.

It was all perfectly executed – the bird was able to successfully eat a fruit before the snake arrived.

Boom!

The snake arrived in an instant and caused the branches to shake. Cunning appeared in the bird’s eyes as it flapped its wings and reached the peak of the tree. It wasn’t the snake’s match in a head-on fight, but if they fought in the air, the bird would be more agile.

Like this, the snake and bird fought in the air above the tree. On the whole, the snake was on the defensive while the bird could do whatever it wanted. It was usually difficult for the bird to steal a fruit or two, but Zhao Feng had successfully distracted the snake.

“This is a good chance!” Zhao Feng’s eyes lit up as he looked at the snake on the tree. His speed increased dramatically as lightning arced around him and he landed on a branch of the tree.

“Go!” Zhao Feng quickly took two fruits behind the snake’s back; one was ripe red and the other was green. If he was correct, these fruits could be considered Spiritual Fruits of the Ancient Dream Realm.

Zhao Feng’s actions caught the attention of both the snake and bird. The giant snake was extremely angry as it whipped toward Zhao Feng. Zhao Feng put away the two fruits as a suit of armor made of ice appeared on his body. This meant that he now had two layers of defense.
