Chapter 196: Sudden Changes

Accompanied by a shrill hissing sound, the Snake King, who wanted to escape but failed to escape, was directly pierced through his head by a sword and nailed to the ground.

Because of the special nature of the life of snakes, even if the consciousness has disappeared, the body will still remain active, so the huge snake body is still twisting.

Yan Ying, who killed the Snake King, kept killing the demon snakes on the periphery for a moment.

At this time, because the snake king died, the demon snakes summoned by the snake king to rescue also began to differentiate.

Most of the second-level demon snakes with higher intelligence began to flee outside the snake valley, and obviously realized that if they stayed there, they would only become prey for humans.

But those first-level demon snakes still failed to figure out the situation and were still rushing to the defense line.

"Kill, don't let these worms escape!"

Zheng Lun shouted loudly and started chasing the second-level demon snake that was fleeing.

The Snake King is dead, and Yan Ying can free up his hands. Now is the time for them to expand their results.

You should know that everyone had already agreed before coming that Yan Ying would only have the [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit] during this trip, and the other gains would be distributed by Wang Cheng and seven others according to their contribution values.

Now kill an extra second-level demon snake, and the benefits each of them will add one or two thousand lower-grade spirit stones.

In this case, how could everyone let the demon snake escape?

After a while of pursuit, the original fifteen second-level demon snakes except the Snake King were removed from the Snake Valley. Twelve were killed directly because of this battle, and only three second-level demon snakes escaped by chance.

There were hundreds of first-level demon snakes in the Snake Valley, and more than 270 were killed, and only a few demon snakes survived.

After the war, Wang Cheng and seven others were busy cleaning up the battlefield and collecting spoils.

Because of the gathering of demon snakes in this snake valley, many highly poisonous spirit herbs grow, and many antidote medicines that can be detoxified, including some second-level spiritual medicines.

Yan Ying did not participate in this action, but carried the snake king's corpse to the edge of the ripe [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit], poured the snake king's body with his spiritual blood to the root of the spiritual object, and took out a prepared spiritual liquid from the storage bag and poured it down.

She wanted to use these spiritual objects to force ripen [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit], so that the spiritual objects that originally took several months to mature will mature in just a few days.

Besides, when Wang Cheng and others were plundering the spoils of war in the Snake Valley, in addition to the spiritual herbs and medicines, they also found a large number of demon snake eggs.

Because the monster snakes in this snake valley are of various types, many of the snake eggs are produced by hybrids of different kinds of monster snakes, many of the monster eggs cannot tell which kind of monster snake they are produced.

So when distributing the spoils, everyone put the demon snake eggs together, divided them into several batches according to the depth of the spiritual power contained, and then they randomly selected the snake eggs they liked.

When distributing spoils based on contributions, Wang Cheng ranked behind two inner disciples of Longshan Academy and the white-haired old man Zhong, while Xu Jinfeng ranked behind him, while the black-faced man Gan Quan and the yellow-clad young woman Guan Die were at the bottom.

The black-faced man Gan Quan and the yellow-clad young woman Guan Die naturally didn't agree with this division.

But they all knew Yan Ying's intention to divide it this way, and knew that this was a punishment for their previous behavior of trying to protect themselves.

So even though they were not convinced, they did not dare to say anything more. They could only knock down their teeth and swallow the bitter fruit into their stomachs.

After seeing the strength shown in Yan Ying's battle with the Snake King, when he looked at this female cultivator who likes to dress up as a man, Wang Cheng and others dare not be as casual as before.

Although he has not yet successfully formed the pill, Yan Ying is indeed far stronger than those of them, such as the early stage of foundation building cultivators, and he has the power to kill them in seconds.

According to the contribution, Wang Cheng and Xu Jinfeng got four second-level snake galls, a large number of second-level snake skins, snake scales, snake teeth, a large number of second-level snake meat, and eight snake eggs.

In addition, the two of them also collected and allocated a lot of snake gallbladders and related materials on the first-level demon snakes.

The amount of poisonous spirit herbs and detoxification medicines collected together was also distributed to each other by more than the amount obtained by any one of Zheng Lun and Qian Song.

The combined value of these things is worth 30,000 to 40,000 low-grade spirit stones. Compared with the spiritual talismans they consumed in battle before, they still earn a lot of money.

After the spoils are distributed, the next step is to wait until the [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit] is ripe.

According to Yan Ying, after using the Snake King's spiritual blood and the spiritual liquid she bought, the [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit] will ripen early.

During this period, in order to avoid exposing their identities, they were hiding in the Snake Valley and did not go out.

This Snake Valley should be a well-known dangerous place nearby, with few other monsters and barbarians daring to approach. Although the Snake King and many monsters died or fled, their residual aura and the poisonous aura that has not dissipated for many years in the Snake Valley are not so easy to dissipate.

At this time, these things became the best cover for Wang Cheng and his group, so that they did not have to worry about other monsters and barbarians entering the Snake Valley and discovering their existence.

But just as everyone was waiting for three days with peace of mind, when the [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit] was still one or two days before it could mature, an accident happened.

Late at night, a strange beast roar, like a wolf howl and a leopard roar, suddenly rang out from the northwest of the Snake Valley.

There were also many beast roars in the night in this wilderness area. It was not unusual to suddenly appear such beast roars.

But this time it was different. After the beast roar came, Wang Cheng and others felt inexplicably tightened their hearts and felt quite uncomfortable after hearing this.

"It's the roar of the third-level monster. It seems that something big is going to happen!"

Yan Ying, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly stood up from the ground, looked at the direction of the beast's roar with a serious expression, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

But Wang Cheng and others, who were originally unaware of this, were all despised when they heard her words.

In terms of cultivation level, the third-level monster is equivalent to the Jindan-stage cultivator among human cultivators, and its strength is far beyond that of the second-level monster.

Once the monster reaches the third level, its wisdom will be further improved, and it is basically the same as that of humans.

In today's world of cultivation, although second-level monsters are rare, they can still be found in many places.

However, the third-level monster can basically be seen in this wilderness that has not been occupied by cultivators.

Of course, no one from Wang Cheng and the others wanted to see the third-level monster.

"Fellow Daoist Yan thinks that what caused the third-level monster to speak out in the middle of the night? Could it be that the killing of the Snake King with us was exposed?"

The young woman in yellow Guan Die looked at Yan Ying with a nervous expression and whispered her own worries.

Because of her words, Wang Cheng and others' attention also fell on Yan Ying.

"Fellow Daoist Guan is too worried. With the wisdom of the third-level monster, even if he knows about our killing of the Snake King, he will only rush here to kill us. How could he make such a sound to alarm the snake? The roar just now must have other meanings."

Yan Ying shook her head slightly, and denied Guan Die's guess with a word, and her tone was very firm.

After hearing what she said, the young woman in yellow, Guan Die's lips moved, but in the end she lowered her head without saying anything.

She glanced at Wang Cheng and others and said softly: "Don't worry, fellow Taoists, at most one or two days, the [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit] will be ripe. When this thing is ripe, we will return immediately."

Things have reached this point, and it is absolutely impossible to make her give up the [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit] that will soon mature.

Wang Cheng and others knew this, so no one mentioned this.

And late at night, everyone passed by with fear after fear of the beast roar.

What is unsettling is that even during the day of the second day, the roar of the third-level monsters has never stopped, and there are more than one or two of the third-level monsters that make the roar of the beasts. At least five different tones can be heard from the sound alone.

Even if this situation occurs, even if anyone is slow to react, it must be something big.

During the sunset, the eight cultivators in the Snake Valley all looked gloomy and no one spoke.

In the end, Yan Ying said first: "From the direction of the sound, we now have third-level monsters on all sides. Even if we want to leave here and return to Baixiang Mountain, we have a very high chance of hitting those third-level monsters. It would be better to continue waiting here first, and wait until the situation is investigated before making a decision!"

However, as soon as she said this, she received a voice transmission from her junior brother Zheng Lun: "Sister Yan, do you think the demon clan and the barbarians are preparing to attack the newly opened territory of the sect? Previously, the demon clan and the barbarians hoarded heavy troops in the border area, and it seemed that they had a tendency to do this."

"This possibility is not ruled out, but the truth of the matter is still needed to investigate. I just hope that we are over-thinking!"

Yan Ying glanced at Zheng Lun, and responded to his question with a heavy tone.

Next, with the unanimous opinions of the three disciples of Longshan Academy, Wang Cheng and others could only continue to squat in the Snake Valley and waited patiently for the turn of opportunity to appear.

In this way, on the evening of the fourth day when Yan Ying killed the Snake Queen, the [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit] finally matured.

The mature [Millennium Ginseng Dragon Fruit] does not emit any strange fragrance to attract attention, but its stems on the ground quickly wither and corrupt, and all the essence is concentrated in the rhizomes underground.

If no one picks it at this time, the [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit] underground will grow new stems in a year. At that time, its spiritual power will be restrained and not dig it out, no one will know that under this seemingly ordinary Ginseng leaf, there is actually a [Thousand-year Ginseng Dragon Fruit].
