Chapter Ninety-Eight: Animism
"Where is this?" Wang Wuyun frowned and looked at the barren island in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked at Xue Qianyan, "Is this the Heavenly Blocking Pavilion?"
Xue Qianyan also frowned and looked at this place, "It shouldn't be, although I haven't been to the Heavenly Blocking Pavilion, but from the information I have, the Heavenly Blocking Pavilion is not this kind of desolate place, but a very prosperous place, this place is obviously just an island in the Lotus Sea or something......"
The small island in front of you, littered with rocks, near the water's edge, is a muddy swamp, countless rotten and withered lotus leaves and lotus stems are piled up on the edge of the island, and the muddy swamp reveals sections of lotus roots, black and gray, like broken and abandoned unfinished buildings, standing tall.
Not to mention anything else, just looking at the muddy swamp outside the island, I'm afraid that no cultivator who entered the Heaven Blocking Pavilion would be willing to set foot in such a place, once those places fall in, even with the cultivation of the Twelve-Story Building, they may be finished.
Wang Wuyun squinted his eyes and looked at the giant python at his feet, this giant python brought him and Xue Qianyan here I don't know what kind of heart it is, but he didn't feel the killing intent of the giant python, if he felt the killing intent, he would instantly strike first.
Moreover, judging from the urine properties of the Ten Thousand Tribulation Orb, he had already obtained 418 robbery points when he subdued this giant python just now, which means that the possibility of this giant python being a demon in the future is not high.
The monacon's terrifying body swayed, like a train that could travel through the mud, through the muddy swamp that was difficult for humans and animals to walk, passing under the crooked roots of lotus roots, spitting letters, and swimming towards a small hill in front of it.
"Here...... This seems to be the lair of this giant python......" Xue Qianyan said suddenly.
"Oh, how do you know?"
"Look at those places......" Xue Qianyan pointed to the marks like huge ruts on the gravel road in front of her, "Those are the traces of the giant python crawling, and you see, over there, it should be its molting skin, snakes usually shed their skin near their own nests......"
The skin of the python is between a mess of rocks, up to 100 meters, a little scary, the pattern on the skin is consistent with the pattern on the python's body, and the skin doesn't know how long it has been molting, some of the skin, even grow a thick layer of green moss, at first glance, I thought it was a green python hidden in the rock.
In addition to the peeled skin, there were also some scales that had fallen to the ground near the rock.
"What did you bring us here for, do you want to treat us as snacks?" Wang Wuyun patted the giant python's head.
The python's swimming body stopped, then shook its head, and then continued towards the dirt bag in front of it.
"Interesting, look at what this giant python wants to bring us here for?" Xue Qianyan was also curious.
It was only a moment of effort, and the giant python came to the front of the dirt bag dozens of meters above the ground, and under the soil bag, there was a big black hole with a diameter of five or six meters, and the big hole led to the depths of the ground, which seemed to be the cave of the giant python, and the giant python drilled directly into the cave.
The outside of this desolate island is very humid, but the inside of this cave is very dry and warm, after entering the cave for hundreds of meters, you can see that there are fiery red stalactites in the cave, those stalactites are strange, emitting a faint red light, and a trace of warm breath, providing visibility and a little higher temperature than the outside of the whole cave.
"What are those stalactites and are they valuable?" Wang Wuyan asked Xue Qianyan.
"It's just an ordinary flame crystal, it has some ornamental value, and it can also be made into medical appliances to assist in the treatment of some special diseases, in addition to here, there are large-scale fire crystal ore belts and veins on many planets, if you talk about the preciousness, I'm afraid it's not as valuable as those lotus roots that have been abandoned outside for I don't know how many thousands of years......"
"Oh......" Hearing Xue Qianyan say this, Wang Wuyan also dispelled the idea of getting some of those things into the space equipment.
In the depths of the cave is an underground space larger than a football field, and the giant python came here with Wang Wuyun and Xue Qianyan, and stopped, hissing and spitting letters, and in the hissing sound of spitting letters, there was a rustling sound in the surrounding darkness, and in the blink of an eye, two much smaller pythons writhed from a mess of rocks.
The size of those two pythons was only much smaller than that of the giant python, but to Wang Wuyun, those two pythons were still thicker than any python he had ever seen in any zoo on earth.
The bucket-thick body, more than ten or twenty meters long, still looks terrifying.
When the two little pythons saw Wang Wuyun and Xue Qianyan, they immediately showed hostility, their heads were raised all of a sudden, their bodies were coiled, and their mouths were exposed, and they were a little eager to try.
The giant python under his feet spit out the letter, and in the hissing sound, the two little pythons quieted down, lay on the ground again, did not show hostility again, but crawled over again, and gently rubbed his head beside the python, which was extremely hideous before, also showed a different kind of gentleness at this time, lowered his head, and gently touched the body of the two little pythons with his head.
Wang Wuyun couldn't understand the snake language, but he could see that the giant python was appeasing the two little pythons, looking at the same patterns on the three snakes, these three snakes were not a family.
However, what does it mean that this python brought itself here to meet its family?
"Are these two little snakes your children?" asked Wang Wuyun.
The python nodded.
"You're here to see your kids?"
The python nodded again.
This giant python brought himself and Xue Qianyan here to see its child, shouldn't he want to let himself see how cute and smart its child is, Wang Wuyun rubbed his face, thought about it, and asked, "You need ...... Shall we help?"
Monty Python nodded again.
"Help what?"
"Hiss ......"
The only answer to Wang Wuyun was a string of spitting letters.
It's going to be hard.
"Look, there seems to be something wrong with that little python?" Xue Qianyan suddenly pointed to one of the small pythons and said to Wang Wuyan.
"Oh, where?"
"Right in the belly!"
"Well, I'll go take a look......" Wang Wuyun said, jumped directly from the giant python's head, and came to the side of the little python that Xue Qianyan said, and looked at it carefully.
Indeed, the side of the body of the little python close to the ground on the abdomen, there seems to be a long wound more than one meter long, the wound is very thin, you can't see it if you don't look carefully, take a closer look, only to find that the whole wound is still showing a weird dark green, and the snake scales near the wound seem to have a thin layer of hoarfrost, some parts of the wound have been a little rotten, there is black blood oozing out of the wound, as long as you get closer, you can smell a disgusting smell.
When Wang Wuyun was checking, the little python twisted its body, and showed its intention to attack, and only then did it quiet down again and lie on the ground obediently in the hissing sound of the giant python.
Xue Qianyan also came to Wang Wuyan's side and looked carefully at the wound of the little python.
"This wound should have been injured by someone's sword, and it was not an ordinary external injury, the sword should have been smeared with a highly poisonous ......" Wang Wuyun looked at Xue Qianyan and said.
Xue Qianyan nodded, stretched out her hand and touched the wound of the little python, and twisted the thin layer of frost on her hand, "Yes, it is true, the scales at this wound have been completely cut by the blade, this poison causes the rot of the wound, while eroding the vitality and blood of the snake, and it will also condense into a layer of hoarfrost outside the wound, it looks like it has been many years, if it weren't for the special system of this snake, it has a strong vitality and resistance to poison, I'm afraid it would have died a long time ago......."
"Left by the people who entered the Heaven Barrier Pavilion before!"
"It should be!"
"Do you know what kind of poison this is?"
"Judging by all signs, it's a bit like the poison of frostfall......"
"Can someone bring this poison in from the outside?"
"No, this frost poison is the same as the phosphorus fire poison of the Beast King Sect, and it is also allocated using some resources in the Giant Spirit Secret Realm, and there are people in the Dayu Empire and the Ten Thousand Sects Alliance who can prepare ......."
"See if there's another one?"
Wang Wuyun and Xue Qianyan came to the side of the other python to check, and in the hissing sound of the giant python, the other python took the initiative to turn its body over, revealing a wound near the seven inches below its snake's head.
The wound, which was also more than a meter long, had also been cut by a sharp blade smeared with the poison of frost, and it had begun to rot.
"No wonder when these two little pythons appeared, I felt that they were a little wilted, slow to move, it turned out to be poisoned, if not treated, this little python may not last long, you look at some places where the wound has begun to rot, it means that the poison of the frost has begun to spread in their bodies, these two little pythons themselves have collapsed against the poison, it may not be long, these two little pythons will festered all over the body and die, turning into a pool of pus and blood......"
"Can it still be saved?"
"If it's easy outside, there are many ways to resolve it, here, unless you still have Jiutai Xianzhi, which is claimed to be able to cure all poisons, and then combined with the ginseng liquid of Fire Spirit Ginseng, no matter how high the cultivation is, it won't be able to come......," Xue Qianyan shook his head, "I'm curious, how could this giant python want to bring us here to save its child?"
Wang Wuyun patted his head, "It must be that you just said that I have a treasure of heaven and earth, and it heard it, I didn't expect this giant python to be so spiritual......"
Hearing Wang Wuyun say, the giant python was still nodding beside him, and then looked at Wang Wuyun with blank eyes.
Xue Qianyan seemed to think of something all of a sudden, and suddenly her eyes widened, and she looked at Wang Wuyan with a stunned look, "You...... You won't ...... There really are nine Xianzhi, right?"
