"General Leader, what a brilliant Cultivation Skill!"
The Demon Snake was dead, and Tian Yun couldn’t help but praise Zou Feng.
She wasn’t deliberately flattering Zou Feng; the complint ca from the heart.
After all, when Zou Feng had executed the Poison Fury Fire Lotus Seal, his "Shaking Flower Hand" was incredibly dazzling.
Zou Feng had thought his "Shaking Flower Hand" was only attractive to young won.
’I never thought even Tian Yun would fall for it...’
Zhuang Sixuan, standing to the side, didn’t say anything, but it was clear she strongly agreed with her master’s sentint.
Looking at the Demon Snake, its entire body was a dark green, its scales like iron plates, and a large, tumor-like growth bulged from its forehead.
This was a clear sign that it was beginning the process of Transforming into a Flood Dragon.
No one present was surprised by this.
For a Demon Snake to grow to this size, its evolution into a flood dragon was only a matter of ti.
Although it seed like the group had killed the snake without much effort, the truth was that the creature had simply been careless.
If it hadn’t been so eager to devour Zou Feng—this "poisonous creature"—and leaped recklessly from the river, the outco would have been much less certain...
Perhaps Zou Feng and the others could still have taken it down, but they would have certainly paid a heavy price.
To prevent any other Demon Beasts from ambushing the victors, the group shared a silent understanding and dragged the Demon Snake to the shore before starting their inspection.
As per their initial agreent, the poisonous parts belonged to Zou Feng.
Therefore, the Poison Fangs and Poison Gland were naturally reserved for him.
Besides, even if the others had taken these two items, they would have been of little use beyond selling them for money.
Zou Feng looked at Tian Yun and said, "Master Tian, please make your selection."
Without needing Zou Feng’s prompting, Tian Yun was already pondering which part of the snake would be most beneficial to her.
In the end, her gaze settled on the large growth on the Demon Snake’s forehead.
"The growth, the Snake Scales, and one hundred jin of Snake at. Would the General Leader agree to this?"
The snake had nearly a thousand jin of at in total, so Tian Yun’s request for one hundred was not excessive.
As for the growth and Snake Scales, Zou Feng couldn’t think of any use for them himself, so he had no objections.
After all, besides himself, Tian Yun had contributed the most to this Snake Catching expedition.
If not for her Inch Kill that struck the snake’s vital point, the Demon Snake would never have been finished off so quickly.
"Very reasonable. In that case, I’ll have to trouble Master Tian to take them herself. Let’s divide it up now."
Dismbering a Demon Beast was no easy task. If they wanted to get it done quickly, it was best for everyone present to lend a hand.
Tian Yun was already prepared. She nodded, took a dagger from Zhuang Sixuan, and stepped forward to carve out the growth.
Next, it was Shi Yangming’s turn to choose his parts.
And his choice was just as Zou Feng had expected: he took the Snake Whip and so Snake at.
Chen An of the Yidao Martial Arts Hall chose the Snake Tongue...
In truth, the Snake Gallbladder was another superior item from the creature, but the mbers of the Hongxing Gang would surely want to leave such a good thing for their General Leader, so they all tacitly avoided choosing it.
But Zou Feng had already contributed the most. Just the act of luring the snake out—a completely risk-filled endeavor—was sothing none of them would have dared to attempt.
The spoils were quickly divided. Zou Feng’s final haul was: the Poison Fangs, the Poison Gland, the Snake Eyes, the Snake Gallbladder, three hundred jin of Snake at, and two large barrels of Snake Blood.
The Snake Eyes were another part no one else was interested in. Just looking at them was creepy. ’What would anyone want those for?’
Zou Feng, however, wanted to try soaking them in dicinal wine.
Although the effect of the Snake Eyes certainly couldn’t compare to the Evil Eye of a Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer, it was enough as long as they were tinged with a bit of evil energy.
As for the Snake Gallbladder...
Zou Feng hadn’t yet decided how to handle it.
’If it has no other use, I might as well just soak it in wine along with the Snake Eyes.’
It was worth ntioning that although it was called a Demon Snake, there was no such thing as a Demon Core inside its body.
This was because it wasn’t demonic enough. Only after truly Transforming into a Flood Dragon would it have a chance of producing a Demon Core.
Seeing Tian Yun collect a large pile of Snake Scales, Zou Feng couldn’t help but ask, "Master Tian, if I may ask, what do you plan to do with those Snake Scales...?"
Tian Yun smiled faintly. "I just so happen to be in need of a new outfit!"
’An outfit? You an to make form-fitting Soft Armor, right...?’
’But if that Snake Scale Soft Armor was also made in a tight-fitting style, just how alluring would that be...?’
Successfully catching the Demon Snake finally alleviated so of the frustration that Yuwen Shuo had caused him.
After all, with the gifts from the Demon Snake, the cultivation progress of the three new Evil Skills he was practicing could break through again in a short ti.
Once he broke through to the Realm of Synthesis and Mastery, he could try to integrate them with his existing Cultivation Skills.
If all went smoothly, perhaps he too could experience what the Half-Step Gang Qi Realm felt like.
In addition, the Snake at and Snake Blood could be used to nourish the Iron Blood Gu Poison Group, greatly accelerating their cultivation progress.
Zou Feng was paying close attention to the Gu Poison Group. After all, whether his Five Poison Fire Lotus Skill, currently at the Peak Realm, could be improved any further depended on the feedback he would receive once the Gu Poison Group matured.
Back on the Dragon Gate Boat, Zou Feng divided the Snake at and Snake Blood. He kept only one hundred jin of at for himself, imdiately bestowing the rest upon the Gu Poison Group.
In reality, the Demon Snake was highly toxic; both its at and blood contained so amount of poison.
The mbers of the Gu Poison Group were still too weak. If they were to eat the at and drink the blood, it would have to be processed first, or they would probably all be dead by nightfall.
Zou Feng, however, was completely unaffected. He ate it raw, taking a mouthful of blood and a bite of at.
After eating, he soaked the Snake Gallbladder and Snake Eyes in wine, then settled down to study the Snake Demon’s Poison Fangs and Poison Gland.
Just then, Xiaolv arrived, drawn by the scent. It was drooling over the Demon Snake’s Poison Gland, just waiting for Zou Feng to give it permission to eat.
