Hiss, hiss...
This is the hiss of a snake.
The shrill scream woke Xiao Zhi up from his sleep.
A warrior's perception is very keen. Not to mention such a big noise, as long as there is any disturbance, he may be awakened.
Xiao Zhi was the first one to be awakened, and the others were also awakened one after another.
Tonight, the sky is covered by dark clouds and is gloomy.
In this case, ordinary people can't see their fingers. Warriors like Xiao Zhi have a slightly better situation, but they can't see too far.
After condensing his true energy into his eyes, Xiao Zhi could only vaguely see the outline of the big snake 1,000 meters away, even if his eyes were widened.
"Xiao Xu, what's going on over there?" Xiao Zhi asked in a deep voice.
Yang Xu's eyes were green in color, exuding a faint light.
Unlike Xiao Zhi and others, as a corpse demon, he has a certain degree of night vision.
Li Pingfeng and others also looked at Yang Xu.
Yang Xu stared forward, with a calm expression and a hoarse voice: "They are two warriors. It seems that they are two warriors in the first stage of Xiantian. These two warriors sneaked over and wanted to kill the demon. But as soon as they got close to the demon snake, they He was swallowed by the violent snake."
After a pause, Yang Xu continued: "The speed shown by this demon snake just now is not weak, but it is still far from the level of a big demon. I will go over and kill it right now!"
After saying that, Yang Xu held the short knife and prepared to stand up, but was held back by Xiao Zhi again.
"Wait a minute, according to what you said, Xiaoxu, these two warriors are only in the first stage of Xiantian, and their strength is too weak. It is impossible to test the true strength of this snake demon. The speed it showed just now is not necessarily It’s its true speed, so we’d better be careful.” Xiao Zhi said in a deep voice.
After thinking about it, Xiao Zhi added: "Besides, except for you, Xiaoxu, we are almost half-blind this late at night, and our strength is quite limited."
"You're too careful." Yang Xu glanced at Xiao Zhi, but didn't insist anymore.
This night, everyone did not sleep well.
This demonic snake would hiss a few times from time to time, and the hissing was very harsh. Every time it hissed, Xiao Zhi and the others would wake up from their sleep.
In addition to the two desperate warriors, according to Yang Xu, this demon snake also swallowed a ferocious beast, killed several ferocious beasts, and scared off more than a dozen ferocious beasts.
This made Xiao Zhi a little confused, where did so many ferocious beasts come from?
Also, how come these ferocious beasts have become nocturnal animals? There are no shadows to be seen during the day, but it becomes more active at night.
The next day, early morning.
At dawn, Xiao Zhi and the others got up.
Xiao Zhi gathered his true energy in his eyes and looked in the direction of the demon snake. The demon snake was still coiled there. Several to ten feet away from the demon snake, lay the corpses of several large beasts.
The bodies of these ferocious beasts, without exception, were all green and shiny. It was obvious that they contained highly poisonous substances, and they were definitely not edible.
In order to kill these ferocious beasts, the coiled posture of the demon snake was different from yesterday, and a somewhat low tree was finally revealed.
There are a total of 7 fruits on this tree. Each fruit is the size of a tomato, with a crystal-clear color and a faint brilliance.
This is the Hundred-Quenched Fruit.
The Bai Queguo Xiao Zhi saw today was a little different from the Bai Que Guo in his memory. The Bai Que Guo in his memory was green, looked very green, and was slightly smaller. .
Most of the quenched fruits I saw today are golden yellow, and only a few are still green.
After staring for a while, a line of text appeared out of thin air: "Hundred Tempering Fruit, it has miraculous effects when taken by warriors. It can be worth 10 years of cultivation. A player can take up to one. The countdown to maturity is 7 hours, 23 minutes and 56 seconds."
Xiao Zhi was startled and whispered: "When you look at the hundred-tempered fruit tree, do you see any text prompts suddenly popping up?"
"Yes." Li Pingfeng nodded and said, "There is also a countdown that represents the maturity time. The countdown time is 7 hours and 23 minutes."
"Me too." Xie Ke said.
"I've also seen it. It seems that the ripening time of the Hundred-Quenched Fruit is earlier than what the Venerable Shenmen predicted. Fortunately, Brother Zhi, you were cautious and came here two days in advance. If you were stuck on time, I don’t think there’s even a single hair left.” Duan Yi said happily.
Xiao Zhi just smiled and said nothing.
In fact, he was a little lucky in his heart. He was glad that he came early. If he had come too late and the spirit fruit was taken away by the monster, he would probably regret it to death.
Li Pingfeng turned to look at Xiao Zhi and said: "The time given by the system should not be false. There are only 7 hours and 23 minutes left. These fruits are about to mature. Either we go directly and transfer this Kill the demonic snake and leave us to guard this hundred-tempered fruit tree?"
Xiao Zhi thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "There are still 7 hours left, which is plenty of time. Let's not rush. We'll wait and see."
After a pause, he continued: "Before the Hundred-Quenching Fruit matures, it is not only ineffective, but also highly poisonous. This demon snake will definitely not swallow the Hundred-Quenching Fruit in advance. Now we are hiding, this demon snake is Ming, if there are any powerful warriors or monsters who have the same thoughts as us, they will also go for this monster snake, and we will just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."
"If we rush over now and kill this demon snake, then in the next few hours, all dangers will be directed at us."
"It makes sense." Li Pingfeng nodded. After Xiao Zhi's analysis, Li Pingfeng gave up the idea of rushing over to kill the snake demon.
Duan Yi couldn't help but look at Xiao Zhi a few more times: "Brother Zhi, you are still thoughtful and insidious enough. I like it, hahahaha."
Xiao Zhi glanced at him and was speechless: "This is already a routine, okay? Don't the protagonists in it often do this kind of thing?"
What is this called? This is called reading a book a hundred times, and its meaning will become apparent.
Even if you have never eaten pork, you have seen pigs running around, right?
In addition to being an online author, Xiao Zhi was also a bookworm for more than ten years. He must have read hundreds of books.
Among them, the protagonist's omnipotence and omniscience, the sky, the earth, and the air, he would definitely not be able to learn, but in some of them, the protagonist's cunning... Ahem, be cautious, he thinks he can still do it Learn more.
Duan Yi laughed dryly when he heard this and said, "I don't read much, I only read a few books, but I didn't notice this."
At this time, there are still more than 7 hours before the spiritual fruit matures, so there is no rush.
Xiao Zhi and others returned to the real world in batches again to solve personal problems in the real world.
In the morning, at about 10 o'clock, a huge beast roar sounded like thunder several miles away from Xiao Zhi and the others.
