21: Chapter 21: Centennial Spirit Snake 21: Chapter 21: Centennial Spirit Snake “The Blazing Fla Scarlet Heart Fruit” lay between the man and the serpent, slightly more towards Fang Bai’s side.
In theory, Fang Bai had an advantage, but this was negated by his current environnt.
Had it been on flat ground, Fang Bai could have easily dealt with the Five-Colored Flower Snake.
But now, he was on a nearly vertical ninety-degree cliff, unable to move agilely, with his left hand grabbing a protruding rock to stabilize his body, leaving only his right hand to confront the Five-Colored Flower Snake.
Driving away or killing the Five-Colored Flower Snake to get that “Blazing Fla Scarlet Heart Fruit” had therefore beco much more difficult.
“A re centennial crawler dares to stop from picking the ‘Blazing Fla Scarlet Heart Fruit’?
Wait till I slaughter you and roast you for a al!
Centennial snake at is a great tonic for the body; a centennial snake gall is greatly beneficial for cultivators!”
Fang Bai glared at the Five-Colored Flower Snake in front of him, clenching his teeth and silently building montum.
After a standoff of more than ten minutes, Fang Bai finally lost his patience.
His right hand ford a claw, and he tore off a rock the size of a chicken egg from the cliff, flicking it with his wrist.
Whoosh—
The rock whistled through the air, shooting towards the vital seven-inch area of the Five-Colored Flower Snake.
The Five-Colored Flower Snake had lived a hundred years and gained so spiritual awareness; it knew Fang Bai was not to be trifled with and was on high alert.
The mont Fang Bai released the rock, the snake also moved.
It swayed its upper body, evading the rock hurled by Fang Bai, with its triangular head lunging forward like lightning.
Its mouth opened wide and two sharp, venomous fangs aid for Fang Bai’s arm—the one that hurled the rock.
Fang Bai knew that once bitten by those venomous fangs, even if the venom didn’t kill him, falling from dozens of ters in the air wouldn’t leave him any chance to survive.
He might have been much stronger than an ordinary person by now, but he was still far from reaching an invincible realm.
“Scram!”
Fang Bai suddenly bellowed, a ferocious shout erupting from his throat.
This roar, like an enraged lion, ford a sound wave that contained a surge of True Yuan from Fang Bai’s Qi Sea, crashing onto the Five-Colored Flower Snake’s head like a big wave and dazing it montarily.
Lion’s Roar Sonic Wave!
This sound wave technique, the first ti Fang Bai had used it since his transmigration, helped him out of a critical situation.
“Die!”
Fang Bai, battle-hardened from his previous life, seized this opportunity without hesitation.
He brought his right-hand index and middle fingers tightly together, thrusting them forward like a sharp sword, precisely and unerringly piercing through the seven-inch spot of the Five-Colored Flower Snake.
The Five-Colored Flower Snake’s body went limp, squird a few tis, and then lay still in death.
Sigh—
These two attacks, seemingly effortless, had nearly exhausted the True Yuan in Fang Bai’s Qi Sea, which was only the size of a grain of rice.
Fang Bai felt weak all over.
His left hand clutched desperately at a protruding rock, and he pressed close to the cliff face, not allowing himself to fall.
anwhile, he rapidly circulated the “Dragon-Tiger-Lion-Elephant Technique” cultivation technique within his body.
After a short while, the True Yuan in his Qi Sea began to condense again, and Fang Bai’s strength gradually returned,
He carefully plucked “The Blazing Fla Scarlet Heart Fruit” and wound the Five-Colored Flower Snake’s body, along with a few vine strips he had prepared, around his body.
Slowly descending from the dozens of feet high cliff, it wasn’t until Fang Bai’s feet touched solid ground that he let out a long sigh of relief.
The up and down journey, though brief, had taken a trendous toll on his physical strength.
By the ti Fang Bai reached the ground, his stomach was growling with hunger.
Dragging the snake to a nearby stream, he decapitated it, skinned it, removed its entrails, and after cleaning the snake at, he cut a large piece with the small knife he carried and roasted it over the fire.
Such a century-old snake with awakened spirit, had a delicious taste and was highly nourishing to the body.
After eating the snake at, Fang Bai felt a surge of strength fill his body, which soon transford into a strand of faint True Yuan that entered his Qi Sea.
Then, Fang Bai swallowed the cleaned gallbladder whole and sat cross-legged on a rock by the stream to cultivate the “Dragon-Tiger-Lion-Elephant Technique”.
The gallbladder was the most essence-filled part of the snake, and the century-old gallbladder that Fang Bai consud had an effect comparable to a low-grade Spirit Pill he had in the Cultivation World in his past life.
Once the gallbladder was ingested, and after being refined by the “Dragon-Tiger-Lion-Elephant Technique”, it also transford into a strand of True Yuan that flowed into the Qi Sea, with an effect several tis greater than that of the snake at al he had just finished.
Fang Bai believed that if he consud the entire snake’s at, transforming all of its energy into True Yuan, his mastery of the “Dragon-Tiger-Lion-Elephant Technique” might reach a new height.
However, Fang Bai had no intention of eating all the snake at.
Instead, he planned to bring the rest ho to share with his family.
Such century-old snake at was rare and hard to find.
Ordinary people who consud it could cure diseases, alleviate pain, strengthen the body, and prolong life.
Fang Bai’s parents both suffered from illnesses, and for them, eating the snake at would have benefits that no common dicine could replace.
This trip had yielded the “Blazing Fla Scarlet Heart Fruit” and century-old snake at, and Fang Bai was very satisfied.
He decided to call it a day, wrapped the remaining snake at in his clothes, and ran all the way ho.
Arriving ho drenched in sweat, Fang Bai was too tired to clean himself.
He handed the snake at to his mother and imdiately planted the “Blazing Fla Scarlet Heart Fruit” in the corner of the yard, three feet away from the “Seven-Leaf Golden Lotus”.
Afterward, Fang Bai took great care to instruct his mother not to touch those two spiritual dicines, telling her that they would be of great use to him in the future.
Those two pieces of spiritual dicine might just be the only ones in the world.
If his mother accidentally destroyed them, Fang Bai could cry himself into fainting.
As for the snake at, Fang Bai lied to his mother, saying it was a gift from a wealthy friend and that it was highly beneficial for health if consud.
Yang i took his word for it and imdiately preserved the snake at.
She froze it in the refrigerator, planning to stew so for her son to eat every day.
After a hot shower and changing into clean clothes, Fang Bai shut the door of his room and focused on reading.
Around four in the afternoon, Fang Bai suddenly received a call from Tang Wenrou.
She said the higher-ups had already processed the reward of one hundred thousand yuan and asked him to bring his ID card and quickly co to the police station to collect it.
Less than ten minutes after receiving Tang Wenrou’s call, Fang Bai was already in her office.
“You sure got here fast…”
Seeing Fang Bai, Tang Wenrou was taken aback.
During the last questioning session, Tang Wenrou had roughly figured out where Fang Bai lived and thought that even if he left his house and imdiately got into a taxi, it would still take about twenty minutes to get to the police station.
Fang Bai’s arrival in less than ten minutes was sowhat beyond comprehension.
“I heard there was money to be collected, so I ran all the way here.”
“Ran?”
Tang Wenrou was even more astonished, and asked, “You ran here?
Aren’t you tired?”
“Not tired!
The thought of one hundred thousand yuan filled with strength!”
Fang Bai said with a smile.
“Money-grubber!”
Tang Wenrou cursed in her heart, but then she rembered that Fang Bai, just like her, had trained in martial arts and was even more skilled than she was.
So, she let it go.
