Chapter 50: Blue Snake (Please Collect, Recommend, and Read)
Due to the lack of flying magic tools, under the leadership of Sun Xunmu, the group of five people moved forward at full speed for two days before they appeared in a dark and humid low jungle.
At the edge of the jungle, there was a turbid green lake with a fishy smell, which was the location of the blue snake provided by the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.
There is no doubt about the source and accuracy of the information about the blue snake. This was purchased by the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall at a high price from some clan members who were exploring alone or reliable casual cultivators.
Most casual cultivators have very limited means to earn spiritual stones, and most of them wander in the depths of the Dongyan Mountains to hunt monsters.
However, these casual cultivators are alone and when they encounter some powerful monsters, they will not mind selling their information in exchange for some spiritual stones.
The Sun family is not very strong, but the inheritance time in the Dongyan Mountains is not short, and the reputation is still good.
Therefore, some casual cultivators often trade the general information and location of monsters.
Of course, due to the time, this information also has some errors, but in general, it is still effective in improving the efficiency of the beast hunting team.
"Uncle Sixteen, Xunxing and I will lead the charge, and Xunhai and Mingsheng will provide support from the rear." After observing the surrounding environment, Sun Xunli's order has come down.
Sun Yousen, the sixteenth in the You generation, is a three-spiritual root cultivator, with the eighth level of Qi training, and is about the same age as Sun Xunmu.
Sun Xunxing and Sun Xunhai are the fourth and ninth in the Xun generation, respectively, the former is the eighth level of Qi training, and the latter is the seventh level of Qi training.
Sun Mingsheng is the only Ming generation cultivator, and this is his first time to participate in the hunting of a first-level upper-grade monster.
After the task was assigned, the five people did not have any intention of bargaining, three people in front, two people in the back, a simple enemy formation.
Gathering the power of five late-stage Qi training cultivators, hunting a blue snake, as long as you are careful, there will be no accidents.
The biggest difficulty now is to confirm the location of the blue-flowered snake from this dense jungle and the half-rotten leaves that are about a foot deep.
Snake monsters are good at hiding their bodies, and they are like fish in water in this dark and humid environment.
Now the only thing they can rely on is the rich experience of the hunting team in hunting monsters for many years, and find the location of the blue-flowered snake's nest through some traces left by the blue-flowered snake.
Among the five members of the hunting team, the most experienced are Sun Yousen and Sun Xunxing, who have fought against hundreds of different monsters.
Various snake monsters are distributed in a wide range, and they are not too picky about the living environment, so they naturally know more about it.
When they walked to the depths of the forest, blue-flowered snakes ranging from the thickness of fingers to the thickness of arms began to appear one after another.
However, these blue-flowered snakes are not monsters, but the most common snakes, driven by the first-grade blue-flowered snakes.
"Be careful, judging from the current situation, there is not only one first-grade top-grade blue snake here." Sun Yousen reminded carefully after he killed three ordinary blue snakes in succession, and his expression became more and more serious.
Sun Mingsheng, who was responsible for the rearguard, also held the Flame Sword. With the support of slight magic power, he gently waved the ordinary blue snakes in two and had no resistance.
After getting Sun Yousen's size, he was naturally very vigilant. The monsters were not as simple as he imagined. They could be easily killed in a few seconds.
The most difficult to deal with must be the group-living monsters like the blue snakes, especially when the specific number is unknown.
In fact, this is also a very normal situation. If the monsters can be killed easily, why would these casual cultivators who are struggling for spirit stones trade the information to the Sun family?
"Dang" a crisp sound was heard, and Sun Mingsheng felt a huge force coming from the Flame Sword. A blue snake with a skin as thick as half an arm but very hard finally appeared. It was also the first monster encountered today.
The Flame Sword left a white mark on the blue snake's body, but no obvious wound was left.
The blue snake's long and powerful tail swung, and as it moved forward at high speed in the air, a piercing sound came.
"Mingsheng, be careful, this is a first-level middle-grade blue snake, don't be careless," Sun Xunli reminded in front.
However, they were unable to provide support at this time. It seemed that they had reached the core nest of the blue snake, and six blue snakes of different grades appeared at the same time.
Two first-level top-grade and four first-level middle-grade, being able to intercept other blue snakes at the same time was already facing considerable pressure.
Under the polishing of magic power, these blue snakes have hard skin, infinite power, and quick reaction, and their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.
Sun Xunli had the highest level of cultivation and strength. He used a mountain-splitting axe to fight two first-grade top-grade blue-flowered snakes alone.
Every time this mountain-splitting axe was swung, it would carry infinite power and be as powerful as a tiger. However, it was a heavy magic weapon after all, so its reaction speed was inevitably much slower.
Facing these blue-flowered snakes that came and went like the wind and moved quickly, he always felt a little powerless. If he didn't have a first-grade top-grade defensive magic weapon, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
Sun Yousen, Sun Xunxing and Sun Xunhai formed a simple triangle formation in tacit understanding, and gathered the strength of the three to deal with the other four first-level medium-grade blue and white snakes.
"Fire-gathering bottle, come out" The Flame Sword has not been successful, Sun Mingsheng decisively sacrificed the Fire-gathering Bottle, and the fine iron shield also flew around him.
Facing a first-level medium-grade blue and white snake, these two magic weapons, one for attack and one for defense, are enough to make him invincible.
The remaining things to consider are how to kill the blue and white snake in front of him, and it can't be delayed for too long.
A hot flame swirled out, and under his control, it turned into a thicker fire snake, waving its tail and colliding directly with the blue and white snake without giving in.
A burst of sparks flew, and some charred black aura appeared on the body of the blue and white snake.
The Flame Sword took the opportunity to fly up, covered with a layer of hot flames, and chopped the already injured snake tail fiercely with lightning speed.
It is better to cut off one finger than to hurt ten fingers. The Flame Sword is limited by its inherent deficiency and is unable to deal a fatal blow to the blue snake. It is better to take this opportunity to cut off its tail.
For the blue snake, the role of the snake tail is quite obvious. It can not only attack from a distance, but also control the direction of advance.
Once the snake tail is damaged, it will reduce the combat effectiveness of the blue snake by at least half, which is also a critical blow.
"Hiss" With the flash of a sword light, the long snake tail separated from the snake body. Under the stimulation of severe pain, it not only did not retreat, but fell into madness, regardless of all consequences, and bit directly at his throat.
In the process of moving forward, the broken part of the snake tail was still bleeding. Facing this blue snake that had lost all its reason, his pressure was getting smaller and smaller. After all, it was just a first-level middle-grade monster.
