The Purple Fang Snake's habitat is quite far from here.
As a result, they walked for a full 6 hours, and even on the fourth night since Lu Yuan entered the underground world, they still hadn't reached the location.
Fortunately, they had prepared ample supplies, so they weren't worried about food or other necessities.
Just as Huang Hao had guessed, roasted Pipi pig was indeed more fragrant than roasted pork belly.
You have to understand, Pipi pigs grow up in this kind of primitive environment, while pigs outside eat processed feed and grow up in pens.
Naturally, the meat quality isn't as delicious as Pipi pig, and the taste when roasted is worlds apart!
Under the campfire, the pleasant atmosphere soon ended.
As it was nearing bedtime, Zhou Wan asked Lu Yuan a question: "Are you feeling any discomfort right now?"
Lu Yuan knew that Zhou Wan was worried about him.
He had to admit, even though Zhou Wan wasn't very old, only around 27 or 28, she was quite considerate and thoughtful of others.
Lu Yuan shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
"If you feel any discomfort, don't hold it in. You must tell me."
After saying this, Zhou Wan left.
When it was Lu Yuan's turn to keep watch, Since Lu Yuan's Spear technique and Ice Blast Technique had reached a temporary pause in their training needs, Lu Yuan took advantage of this lull to continue tempering his bones and began practicing with the Fundamentals of Combat Techniques Compendium that Qin Tianlong had given him earlier.
Just as Qin Tianlong had said, even if he didn't have a weapon, or if his weapon malfunctioned, he could still fight using close-quarters combat.
As Lu Yuan began learning Combat Techniques, a new entry quietly appeared on his status panel.
[Combat Techniques (Beginner)]
As the first light of dawn broke, painting the sky with a pale, milky white, the Fire Fox Team members were already up and about.
"Chicken legs, I want to eat them, they smell so good..."
Only Huang Hao was still sleeping in.
"Hao Ge, wake up."
Lu Yuan walked up to Huang Hao's tent, unzipped it, and called out.
After everyone had washed up using the pre-prepared water, The entire Fire Fox Team set off again!
Another two hours passed before they finally reached their destination.
"Everyone stick together."
Zhou Wan said with a serious expression as she took out the map to confirm their location.
After all, Purple Fang Snakes were not like the Black Flower Deer they encountered before; they were Tier 2 low-rank ferocious beasts. A single mistake could cost them their lives!
Furthermore, this was their first time in this area.
Therefore, they had to be extremely cautious!
"Look! I found a Purple Fang Snake here!"
Huang Hao pointed a finger towards a pile of rocks on the ground.
As soon as he finished speaking, he trembled all over and hid behind Lu Yuan.
He was as scared now as he had been carefree yesterday.
"Purple Fang Snake, die!"
Lu Yuan stepped forward and used his long spear to clear away the scattered rocks.
He discovered that it wasn't a Purple Fang Snake at all, but rather a shed skin of a Purple Fang Snake!
"Purple Fang Snake skin! This one skin is worth tens of thousands!"
Zhou Wan's face lit up with surprise, and she carefully collected the shed snake skin.
Hiss, hiss, hiss~
Suddenly, hissing sounds echoed around them.
Everyone became tense, as if facing a formidable enemy. Zhou Wan also summoned her companion beast, Huo Huo.
After all, one more beast meant one more source of strength.
Only Lu Yuan remained calm, his expression as placid as still water.
Just as they had predicted, two snake-like ferocious beasts emerged from the bushes.
These two beasts were not small in size, appearing to be nearly a meter long. What drew the most attention, naturally, were their long, sharp purple fangs.
The purple color adorning their fangs wasn't just for show; it was packed with potent venom.
If their long, sharp fangs managed to break the skin, then the toxins would seep in through the teeth and invade the target's nerves.
Therefore, they were named Purple Fang Snakes, with the full name being Long Fang Poisonous Snakes.
The Purple Fang Snake opened its mouth, revealing its complete set of fangs, appearing particularly chilling.
At the same time, it flicked its forked tongue, its purple pupils fixated on the members of the Fire Fox Team.
It was obvious that they were being treated as prey!
"Good that you came!"
Lu Yuan's brow twitched as he mobilized the elemental energy within his body.
The tip of his spear was then covered with a layer of ice element energy, emitting wisps of cold air.
The next moment, Lu Yuan unleashed three swift and ferocious shots in a single second, instantly killing one of the Purple Fang Snakes.
The snake's tongue, which had been quivering slightly moments before, now hung limply on the ground, devoid of any life.

Originally, the two Purple Fang Snakes had intended to attack the humans before them.
But in the next second, one of the Purple Fang Snakes was astonished to discover that its companion had been so easily impaled?
Something's wrong? Something is twelve out of ten wrong?!
The surviving Purple Fang Snake twisted its body, intending to flee.
But the biggest problem now was that while it was fast, it was far from as fast as Lu Yuan's spear.
