Chapter 802 World 350
With the arrival of the wild goose beast horde so imposing, how could the disciples possibly stay indoors?
Senior Sister Zhou looked up and found the person she was looking for in no time.
After the senior sister from Danfeng approached and examined it carefully, she said, "This wild goose spirit beast must have been fed a pill that causes cognitive confusion, which is why it crashed into our spirit boat."
"We weren't moving very fast, and you reacted quickly enough, so it didn't crash into us and kill us outright."
"But the pills you used clashed with its original medicinal properties, which is why it went berserk."
“So, the person behind this knows us quite well,” Shen Ruyin said. “They even calculated what kind of medicine we would use to save the wild goose after it survived.”
A junior disciple nearby thought she was overthinking it: "Perhaps the drug incompatibility was just an accident."
Upon hearing this, Senior Sister Zhou said, "It's better to believe it than not. I'll trouble you, Junior Sister, to go and talk to the guard elder about this matter. I'll go and see if we can negotiate with the Goose Spirit Beast Group."
Having dealt with spirit beasts extensively, Beast Taming Peak naturally possesses methods for communicating with them in a simple way. As one of the most outstanding disciples of Beast Taming Peak, Senior Sister Zhou could certainly give it a try.
Danfeng's senior sister went to find the guardian elder, while Senior Sister Zhou led the immobile Goose Spirit Beast towards the direction of its clan. Shen Ruyin originally wanted to follow Senior Sister Zhou, but she stopped her.
Even though Shen Ruyin has a high affinity for spirit beasts, and the individual rank of the wild goose spirit beast is not high, facing so many of them, without absolute certainty of protecting her, Senior Sister Zhou dared not let her take the risk.
Shen Ruyin accepted her kindness and simply stood there waiting.
Fortunately, after Senior Sister Zhou went over, a larger goose spirit beast that looked like the leader of the goose spirit beasts flew out from the flock and communicated with her.
Before long, Senior Sister Zhou gave away the wild goose spirit beast in her arms, and the beasts surrounding the spirit boat dispersed.
One disciple muttered, "They were just ramming our spirit boat together a moment ago, how come they're being so easy to talk to now?"
Shen Ruyin was also very curious, so she asked Zhou Shijie when she returned.
Senior Sister Zhou said, "They mistook us for bad people just now. Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, they have naturally left."
"That simple?" Shen Ruyin was skeptical, but on the surface, she put on the same "I see" expression as the other disciples.
Seeing that Senior Sister Zhou was hurrying off to find the Guardian Elder, Shen Ruyin returned to her room.
Shen Ruwan and Li Miaoyi left the door open for her, waiting for her to come back and ask about the situation.
Shen Ruyin gave a general account of what had happened, but she didn't know anything more than that.
With limited information, they speculated for a while and then stopped talking about it.
Because of the delay on the way, the Supreme Sect became the last sect to arrive outside the secret realm.
They had barely settled in when the entrance to the secret realm opened.
Some independent cultivators and disciples from smaller sects rushed in first in order to gain the upper hand.
The elders of the Supreme Sect calmly emphasized the importance of safety before allowing them to enter the secret realm together.
All the disciples who were supposed to go in had left, their cultivation levels exceeding the requirements of the secret realm. Senior Sister Zhou, who had come along to help lead the team, also saw her friends from other sects and decided to go over and talk to them.
"What? You were also surrounded by spirit beasts?" Senior Sister Zhou quickly grabbed her friend and pressed her for details. After asking, she went to inquire with friends from other sects, and finally hurriedly went back to find the guard elder.
"Elder, all the major sects that came to participate in this secret realm have experienced being besieged by beast hordes. Several sects, including Qing Shuang Sect, even fought a battle with a group of spirit beasts."
"I'm afraid the person behind this has bigger ambitions. Should we report this to the sect immediately?"
-
Shen Ruyin was following her sister, who was holding her hand. But as soon as they entered the secret realm, she found herself all alone.
Shen Ruyin is now standing in an open space, surrounded by towering trees like those in a primeval forest, blocking out the sun and allowing almost no light to penetrate.
Shen Ruyin took a few tentative steps and found that the fog in the forest not only reduced visibility but also made it easy to get lost.
She seemed to have gone in circles, but in reality, she returned to where she started.
But the trees here all look pretty much the same, so no one can say for sure whether she's reached the original spot.
Just as Shen Ruyin was considering whether to climb the tree to find her way, she heard a soft sound of leaves being crushed.
Shen Ruyin gripped her sword, and as the sound drew nearer, she turned and struck a giant python on the head, which was attempting to ambush her.
The giant python, in pain, opened its mouth wide and attacked her.
Shen Ruyin discovered that this giant python was quite strategic. It used its ferocious head to attract Shen Ruyin's attention, while its long tail had somehow gotten closer and closer to her, just waiting for an opportunity to wrap itself around her.
Shen Ruyin dared not try to outmuscle the giant python's tail with her own flesh and blood. Upon realizing this, she slid her sword tip downwards and, using the force of the sword on the ground, flipped herself up the tree.
The python could also climb trees, so of course it wouldn't let her go, and quickly chased after her and climbed the tree as well.
The sounds of branches being crushed and broken were especially eerie in the dim light.
Shen Ruyin knew that running like this was not a solution, but the python's skin was thick and it recovered quickly. Although her sword could hurt it, the cuts would heal in no time. Moreover, the python was poisonous, and any place touched by its blood would be corroded, leaving a hole.
For safety, Shen Ruyin did not choose the explosive talisman. Instead, after choosing a good location, she used the giant python's pursuit to weave back and forth among several nearby giant trees.
Soon, the giant python tied itself into a knot.
While the giant python was still confused, Shen Ruyin seized the opportunity, switched to a bow and arrow, and shot the arrow vertically downwards from the top of the tree, aiming at the python's seven-inch spot.
The python's venomous blood exploded, and the power unleashed by the pain allowed it to snap one of the giant trees in two.
Shen Ruyin quickly jumped to a tree a little further away, avoiding the possibility of being hit by the giant tree.
The giant python below rolled around for about half an hour before finally calming down and remaining still.
By this time, the trees it had previously entwined had all fallen, and the plants beneath them were also badly damaged. However, sunlight poured down from the space where the giant tree had fallen, making this area brighter than other places.
Shen Ruyin waited for a while, and only when she saw that the giant python still did not move did she decide to climb down the tree.
Just as she was about to land, Shen Ruyin suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She glanced at the giant python on the ground and decisively climbed back up the tree.
Just as she climbed the tree, the giant python, which had been motionless on the ground, used its last bit of strength to bite towards her. Its fangs sank deep into the tree, but the python no longer had the strength to pull them out.
Shen Ruyin then climbed down the tree again. Seeing that the giant python was not yet completely cold, she thought for a moment and took out a few jade bottles.
"Your venom is so potent, so please contribute more to me. I need some of your venom and blood."
"After all, we've been fighting for so long, and I've worked hard too. We can't forget about the spoils of war."
