Chapter 39 - 37: Jiao Snake (Seeking for continued reading)_l
Jiang Hui did not oppose Tu Dequan’s plan.
The young lad was right, flowers grown in a greenhouse would never last long, only through the baptism of blood could they become stronger.
It was good for young people to take risks. If everyone chose comfort, Liu Village would inevitably become stagnant.
As for the safety issue, Jiang Hui had Little Black secretly following behind.
The Black Python was quite enthusiastic about this, it was still remembering the meat soup boiled in the village when they returned from the depths of the Great Wilderness last time. It planned to kill more ferocious beasts this time to have a good feast…
Within Liu Village.
After packing up and bringing enough food for half a month, Lin Zhuang and his team headed straight to the depths of the Great Wilderness.
This time they set out mainly to hunt ferocious beasts.
The village had an increasing number of children suitable for medicine baths.
If they could use this time to use Ferocious Beast Blood to open their bodies for the medicine bath, these children would greatly improve, surpassing their ancestors and parents, and have the chance to step onto a larger stage.
At the same time, if they could obtain a Treasured Technique, it would be even better.
There was only one Treasured Technique in the village, called the Ferocious Ape Body. It was powerful, but apart from Lin Xin Tong and Tu Wa Zi, very few people could master it.
Even they, who had been studying till they were over thirty years old, had just grasped a little bit of it. Although it could be used, each use would damage their own vitality and it would take half a month to recover.
So, Lin Zhuang and others planned to find another one. This would not only enhance the foundation of Liu Village but also give the villagers more choices. Maybe they would not understand the Ferocious Ape Body but could comprehend other Treasured Techniques!
Compared to the last time they entered the mountains, their speed was much slower this time.
Without Little Black leading the way, they could only make their way through the overgrown weeds by themselves.
Fortunately, they had all grown up in such an environment and didn’t feel anything particular.
The Great Wilderness was vast with robust trees. After traveling for more than five days, they were still wandering around the edge of the deep parts.
They didn’t dare to go any further. Thunderous roars came from within, reaching unknown distances. The terrifying sounds echoed back and forth in the shadows, as if they were about to tear apart the heaven and earth, indicating great horror. It was not a place they could set foot in at the moment.
Lin Zhuang and the others were brave, but bravery didn’t mean recklessness, nor did it mean they were willing to throw their lives away for nothing.
A day later.
They found a ferocious beast by a stream.
It was a Jiao Snake, more than thirty meters long, with a bulging tumour on its head and a pair of sharp claws at its vital position. Its scarlet eyes were soul-stirring, quite extraordinary.
“Let Big Brother take the lead for you!!”
After pondering for a while, Lin Zhuang decided to take the lead.
He leaped up, jumping tens of meters high, his figure agile, like a fierce beast, pouncing on the Jiao Snake fiercely.
“Roar…”
Such a big movement naturally woke the Jiao Snake up at the first moment. The Jiao Snake roared angrily and instantly counterattacked.
This Jiao Snake was very extraordinary. Even though the sharp horn on its head hadn’t broken open yet, it still had a fierce presence.
In particular, the Jiao Snake was emitting a black light all over its body, making crackling sounds, densely covering its body and emitting terrifying power.
“Good fellow, this ferocious beast definitely possesses a Treasured Technique. Killing it will surely get us another Treasured Technique.”
There was a trace of madness on Lin Zhuang’s face. He took the lead, directly drawing out the one-horned elephant tusk, which weighed thousands of pounds, from behind him and squarely aimed it at the Jiao Snake’s vital position.
“Bang”
In an instant, sands and stones were flying all around, the earth trembled, and the mountains shuddered. An overwhelming force assaulted everyone present, bringing with it an astonishing weight of more than a hundred thousand kilograms, forcibly tearing the air apart.
The Jiao Snake did not fall behind; its dark glow crackled as it spewed out a dazzling and scorching light, surprisingly transforming into a sharp spear.
“Rumble….”
The dark spear collided directly with the coalition of Lin Zhuang, who was holding an ivory tusk, with a horrifying force radiating from the collision. The spear exploded into countless runes filling the sky, a sight that was truly astonishing.
Lin Zhuang too was not in good shape. The ivory tusk of the One-horned Elephant couldn’t withstand such a horrific force and shattered into fragments, turning into fine powder.
Moreover, many of the runes from the shattered spear hit him. He felt as if he’d been struck by lightning and fell heavily from mid-air, smashing a terrifying crater into the ground.
“Big brother!”
“Boss…”
Seeing this, Lin Chen and the others who had been following closely turned pale and rushed over to pull Lin Zhuang out from the crater.
“Damn beast, I don’t believe I can’t kill you today!”
Being humiliated in front of so many people, Lin Zhuang’s face was terrible, as gloomy as if it could drip water.
But quickly, he grimaced in pain, his hands shaking violently.
The spear rune was extraordinary. Even though he had shattered it with one powerful blow, the splattered runes were still bore into his flesh like leeches. It felt as if sharp needles were being stuck into his pores all-over, the pain was unbearable.
Fortunately, Lin Zhuang’s physique was strong enough to endure the pain.
However, he was stubborn and refused to submit even under such circumstances.
“Again!” Lin Zhuang roared, fully unleashing his power with crackling noises resonating from his body, and began using the Ferocious Ape Body Treasure Technique he had mastered.
Though his grasp of the technique was shallow, the power of the Ferocious Ape Body had revealed itself somewhat.
His body glowed a hazy grey-white, shielding his entire body. His body then swelled, reaching three meters in height, resembling a giant.
The next moment.
Lin Zhuang stepped forward, his fists creating a roaring wind that made the surrounding trees sway and leaves fall like rain.
But it wasn’t over.
Lin Zhuang then took out a huge bone.
It was the Treasured Bone from the Ferocious Ape on which the Treasured Technique was inscribed, but the runes on it had now disappeared.
The Treasured Technique resided in the Treasured Bone, but it couldn’t be stored for long, especially for very precious Treasured Techniques, which had shorter shelf lives. When the time limit was reached, the Rune would transform into the Treasured Bone entirely, becoming a Treasure Tool.
A Treasure Tool could not be used to teach the Treasured Technique, but it possessed formidable power when activated.
Lin Zhuang didn’t believe he couldn’t defeat the Jiao Snake with all these methods at his disposal.
“Big brother, we’re coming to help!”
At the same moment, Lin Chen, Lin Xin Tong, and Tu Dequan also made their move.
This Jiao Snake was formidable, and the Treasured Technique it held was not simple; it actually condensed an attacking spear. They must annihilate it here to completely make it the foundation of Liu Village.
“Roar…”
The Jiao Snake regarded them as formidable opponents and coiled its body. Its giant head rose high, and the dark incandescent light emanating from its body was brighter than ever before.
Hovering above its head, it condensed a spear ten times larger than before. It hung mid-air, its surroundings enveloped by darkness..
