Qingfeng Li and Black Puppy walked carefully toward the front, when suddenly Black Puppy twitched its nose, a happy look appearing in its eyes.
Black Puppy stretched out its dog’s paw and stopped Qingfeng Li from moving forward.
Qingfeng Li looked confused and whispered, “Puppy, why not go forward?”
The excitement in Black Puppy’s eyes faded, as it whispered. “I smell the fragrance of a spirit herb… It should be a tier one spirit herb.”
“Tier one spirit herb?” Hearing the words from Black Puppy, Qingfeng Li’s eyes revealed a touch of happiness.
Spirit herbs were generally divided into nine tiers, with tier one being the lowest and tier nine being the highest.
Tier one spirit herbs were incredibly beneficial to self-cultivators who had just stepped into the world of self-cultivation. Once the tier one spirit herbs had been refined, the cultivators could break into the true spirit realm.
Naturally, Qingfeng Li was very happy. He knew he must obtained this tier one spirit herb, as it was important to recovering his cultivation.
Qingfeng Li and Black Puppy walked toward the front, and seeing a small hill ahead, both of them came to a stop.
Then they hid behind a boulder on the hill, sneaked out their heads and looked carefully toward the front, fearing the slightest movement would be discovered by the people up ahead.
Qingfeng Li was happy deep in his heart. He saw a tier one spirit herbs not far away.
It was a fruit the size of an apple, with a blush red surface emitting a fiery aura. It was a fire spirit fruit.
As long as this fruit was refined, Qingfeng Li’s strength would be able to breakthrough to the true spirit realm.
Qingfeng Li’s body was a little jittery. His body was constantly shivering from his desire for strength.
Black Puppy whispered, “Wait, there’s someone there.”
Hearing Black Puppy’s words, Qingfeng Li gazed over and realized the fire spirit fruit was surrounded by three people. These three people were the burly young man, the skinny young man, and the delicate woman who had previously left Qingfeng Li.
These three people were around the fire spirit fruit seeming to be in discussion of some strategies, but the distance between these three people from the fire spirit fruit was over ten meters, yet they did not move forward.
Next to the fire spirit fruit, there was a red demonic snake. The red demonic snake had a crown on its head, stuck its tongue, it looked coldly at the three young people in front of it.
This was the Crimson Fire Viper King, and its strength was very formidable. It also fancied this spirit herb.
The burly young man suddenly took a blade out from his body. The blade was a meter long, ten centimeters wide, and very thick, with a black talisman scripture engraved on it.
He waved his long blade and drew a sharp blade energy that shot towards the Crimson Fire Viper King ahead.
The Crimson Fire Viper King waved its tail and formed a red light that fiercely struck against the blade energy and shattered it.
A touch of astonishment appeared in the burly young man’s eyes. He did not believe his attack could not beat the Crimson Fire Viper King.
The burly young man swung his saber several times, each swing shaking the space with its strength, but without exception, the Crimson Fire Viper King easily blocked them.
The skinny young man said, “Li Zhang, the Crimson Fire Viper King is very powerful. It cannot be defeated by just one person. Let’s discuss a strategy to attack.”
The burly young man nodded. After he discussed with the skinny young man and the delicate woman for a moment, they channeled their vital essence, took out their spiritual treasure weapons, and started attacking that little red viper.
The Crimson Fire Viper King was very powerful, forcing them to retreat even after they had combined the three of their attacks together.
In particular, the skinny young man was very dissatisfied. He was able to take out a Daoist talisman, turning it into an ice cube and freezing the Crimson Fire Viper King directly.
Then, the burly young man waved his long blade and cut the Crimson Fire Viper King in half with one chop.
The Crimson Fire Viper King’s body was lying on the ground, but it suddenly moved, tunneling underground and disappearing.
The delicate woman did not attack from the beginning until the end.
Qingfeng Li witnessed clearly from the back. This kind of Crimson Fire Viper King appeared on Earth as well but looked a bit different. However, its ability was the same in which it was able to escape when it was cut in half, not dying at all.
A cold light flashed through Qingfeng Li’s eyes. He knew if there was only one Crimson Fire Viper King, there would not be an issue. If there were hundreds and thousands of snakes, no one would survive.
Qingfeng Li got Black Puppy to stretch out its dog nose and smell everywhere, to see if there were any other crimson fire vipers around.
After a moment, Black Puppy’s face changed drastically and said, “This is not good. The fleeing Crimson Fire Viper King went to summon its companions. There are strong scents of many crimson fire vipers. Let’s get out of here as soon as possible.”
Qingfeng Li nodded. Without any hesitation, he and Black Puppy escaped to another direction, because they knew that once surrounded by those crimson fire vipers, there was no way for them to survive.
However, before Qingfeng Li was about to leave, he did not leave alone. He transferred a voice transmission to the delicate woman about how a group of vipers were about to appear and asked her to run away immediately.
The delicate woman heard a mysterious voice transmission, she stood there and kept pondering. All of a sudden, she remembered that it was a very familiar voice, it was the voice of the previously abandoned Qingfeng Li.
The delicate woman looked next to the burly young man and the skinny young man who were still fighting for the fire spirit fruit nonstop. A touch of complexity showed in her eyes, she did not know if she should say what she just heard.
She thought for a moment before she finally spoke, “You two have to stop fighting for the fire spirit fruit! A group of crimson fire vipers is about to appear, we must run away immediately, otherwise it will be too late.”
The burly young man glanced at the delicate woman and said, “What are you talking about? The Crimson Fire Viper King was just cut in half by me and escaped underground. It will die soon. How can it go summon its companions?”
The skinny young man next to the delicate woman also looked at her coldly with a look of disbelief.
Although they stayed with delicate woman, they did not come from the same planet, so they still were still cautious about each other.
The delicate woman saw the two people in front did not believe her, she could only shake her head helplessly.
She did not know why but the delicate woman slightly believed Qingfeng Li. Although he did not have any vital essence and strength, she had a special kind of trust towards Qingfeng Li. It was an intuition and her intuition was always very accurate.
The delicate woman glanced at the skinny young man and the burly young man, then she turned around and moved backwards.
Shortly after the delicate woman had left, a choppy voice rang out from afar. That voice was very loud.
The burly young man and the skinny young man heard it as well, and their faces changed drastically. Looking ahead, they saw more than a hundred red vipers, and the one in the lead was the Crimson Fire Viper King which had previously been cut in half.
