26: Fighting the Golden Python

After putting away the xueyang rice seeds, Mu Feng turned to another direction.

There were still several spiritual plants there that he harvested daily.

【buddhas hand flower: A flower resembling a buddha's hand, it is the main Material for refining healing Medicinal Pills.】

It was another Material for refining healing Medicinal Pills.

Unfortunately, Mu Feng did not have the Pill Formula for healing Medicinal Pills.

Otherwise, he could have refined them for sale.

As the exploration progressed, some people must have already been injured.

This type of Medicinal Pill would definitely be in high demand.

......

In a short while, Mu Feng had completely harvested all the flowers and plants here.

After confirming that nothing was left behind, Mu Feng took the Little Lizard and left this Cave Secret Realm.

Back at his dwelling, Mu Feng began to tally the gains from this exploration.

The Materials collected in this exploration were as follows: qingfeng grass x8, xueyang rice seeds x4, buddhas hand flower x18.

The supplies were quite good.

Among them, the xueyang rice seeds were the most valuable.

Mu Feng planned to plant all of them in his medicinal garden later.

Mu Feng never thought he had too many items that could improve his Physique and speed up his Spiritual Qi absorption.

The remaining qingfeng grass and buddhas hand flower were more common Alchemy Materials.

After organizing them, Mu Feng stored them in his Storage Pouch.

His old Storage Pouch was already full.

Mu Feng transferred everything into his new Storage Pouch.

Immediately after, he walked into the medicinal garden, preparing to plant the newly acquired xueyang rice seeds.

“Oh, it’s already bearing fruit!”

In the medicinal garden, the Hong Xiang Fruit Tree that he had planted earlier had already flowered and bore fruit.

The speed exceeded Mu Feng’s imagination.

Mu Feng counted, and the Hong Xiang Fruit Tree had a total of five fruits.

He believed it wouldn’t be long before he could refine Bigu Pills again.

After continuing to water the Hong Xiang Fruit Tree, Mu Feng found a few empty spots and planted the four xueyang rice seeds he had just obtained.

【xueyang rice: Its growth process requires absorbing Spiritual Qi. The denser the Spiritual Qi, the shorter the growth cycle!】

As soon as he planted the xueyang rice, a System prompt appeared before his eyes.

It grows by absorbing Spiritual Qi?

It really is a peculiar spiritual plant.

He just didn't know if the Spiritual Qi from the Elementary Spirit Gathering Array would be enough for it to absorb.

Because the xueyang rice had just been planted and had not yet sprouted tender shoots, Mu Feng had no way to check how long it would take to mature.

However, he estimated that it should be sufficient.

After watering the xueyang rice seeds, Mu Feng returned to the main hall.

After a brief rest, Mu Feng took the Little Lizard and continued to explore his third Immortal Cave of the day.

Following the treasure map's guidance, Mu Feng walked to the light gate closest to the treasure map.

【The Immortal Cave Secret Realm ahead is not bad; there is an iron treasure chest, but you need to deal with the two Qi Refining Fifth Realm Golden Light Pythons guarding it.】

“Hmm, that’s the one!”

After Cultivating the Azure Origin Sword Art, his strength had increased significantly.

He didn’t even put two Qi Refining Fifth Realm Yao Beasts in his eyes.

Taking the Little Lizard, Mu Feng stepped into the teleportation gate.

With a flash of white light, Mu Feng entered the Secret Realm.

“So smelly!”

As soon as he entered the Secret Realm, a fishy, foul smell assailed his nose.

“Whoosh!”

Just as Mu Feng instinctively covered his nose, a whooshing sound suddenly came from beside his ear.

He looked up and found two yellow giant pythons coiling beside the teleportation gate.

Seeing him enter, they immediately opened their gaping maws and lunged at him.

The sudden turn of events was too abrupt.

He didn’t even have time to use the Qingming Bell for defense.

Fortunately, he had considerable combat experience.

After only a brief moment of distraction, he immediately rolled forward to dodge the giant python’s attack.

“Hiss!”

Looking back, the patch of grass where he had just stood had been bitten into an empty space by the giant python.

If he hadn't dodged fast enough, he might have already been swallowed by the snake.

“Damn it!”

“You dog, you have no martial ethics, launching a sneak attack!”

He finally understood why it smelled so bad here.

It turned out the exit was near the snake’s den.

Missing its attack, the Golden Light Python twisted its body and continued to coil towards Mu Feng, intending to strangle the intruder.

However, Mu Feng was faster than it.

With a flick of his palm, a blue light shot towards the giant python’s body!

It was precisely the Azure Origin Sword Light he had just learned!

Crack! Crunch!

The Azure Origin Sword Light struck the Golden Light Python’s body, producing a sound like clashing blades.

The Golden Light Python’s scales were unexpectedly tough.

They actually blocked the Azure Origin Sword Light.

Although the Azure Origin Sword Light failed to break through the Golden Light Python’s body, it did somewhat impede its movement.

Seizing this opportunity, Mu Feng quickly moved out of the Golden Light Python’s attack range.

His current Physical fitness did not allow him to engage in close combat with a Yao Beast.

He was more proficient in long-range attacks!

During the attack interval, Mu Feng checked the Golden Light Python’s information.

【Name】: Golden Light Python

【Realm】: Qi Refining Fifth Realm

【Description】: A large python living in the rainforest, with high defense and astonishing biting force. They typically live in pairs; if one dies, the other will seek a new mate.

【Skills】: Bite, Venom.

【Weakness】: Seven inches.

“Its weakness is at seven inches!”

“That makes it easy!”

Like all snakes, the Golden Light Python’s weakness was its seven inches.

Immediately, Mu Feng unleashed the Azure Origin Sword Light again.

This time, it wasn't aimed at its body!

But at the seven-inch mark coming from its tail!

“Pfft!”

A flurry of scales flew, mixed with the sound of flesh being cut.

The originally incredibly tough snake scales were cut off by his single sword strike, more than ten of them.

Green blood seeped from the wound.

“Puff!”

The pained Golden Light Python thrashed about uncontrollably.

Its eyes, looking at Mu Feng, were filled with resentment.

Opening its snake mouth, a mass of incredibly foul-smelling green venom sprayed towards him.

“Cover!”

Mu Feng, already prepared, immediately summoned the Qingming Bell to block the venom.

Seeing its attack was ineffective, this Golden Light Python knew it couldn’t win.

It turned its head and ran towards the other Golden Light Python that was entangled with the Little Lizard, seeking its protection.

“Trying to run!”

“Bind!”

With the Water Binding Technique, several blue chains immediately clamped onto the Golden Light Python’s body.

Hiss!~

As soon as the blue chains reached the Golden Light Python’s body, before they could take effect, it slipped free with a slick movement.

The Golden Light Python’s body was too slippery; the Water Binding Technique’s chains had no effect on it whatsoever.

Good heavens, it can even play like this!

It was the first time Mu Feng had encountered the Water Binding Technique failing.

Fortunately, his current combat proficiency was high.

Seeing the Water Binding Technique fail, he immediately released the Flying Sword on his body.

Six Beginner Flying Swords were simultaneously unleashed by him, shooting towards the Golden Light Python attempting to escape.

They sank into the Golden Light Python’s seven-inch mark, several meters away.

The already injured seven-inch mark was cut open by the Flying Sword without any surprise.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Streams of green blood continuously gushed from the seven-inch mark.

With its weakness struck, the giant python immediately felt its whole body go limp, and it soon fell to the ground.

Its pupils subsequently dilated, completely dead.

Seeing this, Mu Feng was overjoyed.

Just as he was about to go and help the Little Lizard deal with the other giant python, a sudden dizzying sensation overwhelmed him.

He collapsed to the ground.

“Hiss!”

“So painful!”

“What’s going on? Why does my head hurt so much?”

“Could it be because I overused my Divine Sense?”
