Scatter, Flowing Cherry Blossom!

Chapter 47: Scatter, Flowing Cherry Blossom!

At that moment, Chen Feng and the others saw the Shrek Seven Devils resting ahead of them.

"Everyone, stop," Zhao Wuji said.

Zhao Wuji had recovered fairly well. Though he only had one arm left, he had at least survived.

After so much time, with a soul master's recovery speed, Zhao Wuji's wound had completely scabbed over and healed.

It was just that from now on, he could only use one hand.

Everyone stopped. Having traveled over a hundred li, their bodies had warmed up, especially Oscar and Ning Rongrong. As support soul masters, their physical fitness was fairly good, but they ultimately could not compare to Tang San and the others.

Oscar softly chanted his lewd incantation and handed everyone a sausage. After these past few days of getting used to it, no one was disgusted by his sausages anymore. At most, they pretended not to hear him when he chanted his spell.

The sausages entered their stomachs and turned into surging warmth, restoring everyone's strength. Their spirits rose as well.

Zhao Wuji stared sternly at the seven students before him. "

Listen carefully. The Star Dou Forest is not a place where the nation raises magical beasts. The soul beasts here are exceedingly dangerous, and you could face attacks from thousand-year, or even ten-thousand-year, soul beasts at any time.

Therefore, once we enter the forest, none of you may stray more than twenty meters away from me. Ning Rongrong, Oscar, the two of you must stay close to me.

Without my command, no one is to attack a soul beast lightly. Do you understand?"

At that moment, Chen Feng and the others were watching the Shrek Seven Devils from afar.

Yae Miko looked at Chen Feng and asked, "Chen Feng, isn't that your little ex-girlfriend?"

The person Yae Miko pointed to was Ning Rongrong in the group.

Chen Feng nodded slightly. "They should be here to hunt soul rings too."

After hearing that, Yae Miko seemed to ponder for a moment. "I see. Then are we still going to get that treasure chest?"

Chen Feng smiled. "Of course. The Star Dou Forest isn't their territory!"

With that, Chen Feng and the others were about to move forward.

Just then, Zhao Wuji suddenly shouted, "Get up! Something is approaching at high speed."

Tang San and Dai Mubai moved in perfect coordination, taking the lead in standing before Oscar and Ning Rongrong. Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Fatty guarded the sides. At once, everyone released their martial souls, Zhao Wuji included.

The rustling sound grew louder and louder. Even Oscar and Ning Rongrong, who were support soul masters, could clearly sense just how swiftly the unknown creature was approaching.

"Zhu Zhuqing, see what it is," Zhao Wuji ordered in a low voice.

Without a word, Zhu Zhuqing silently leaped into the air. Her sharp claws sprang from her hands as she swiftly climbed a nearby tree as if walking on level ground, looking toward the source of the sound.

A cat's vision was exceptional, even at night, let alone now, under the midday sun.

Very soon, Zhu Zhuqing's cool voice came from the tree. "It seems to be a flying snake, but it can't fly very high. It can only travel about three meters above the ground. There is a fleshy crest on its head, larger than its head itself, crimson as blood. Its tail is rather unusual, shaped like a fan."

Zhao Wuji's eyes lit up. "It's a Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent. This kind of soul beast is quite rare. The fleshy crest on its head has many marvelous uses. Oscar, you're in luck. It's a pity we don't know how old this Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent is. Zhu Zhuqing, keep an eye on the direction it's heading. Report to me immediately if anything changes."

"Yes. It is coming in our direction and moving very fast, but it seems to be having trouble keeping its balance."

Tang San suddenly asked, "How long is this Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, and what color are its wings?"

Zhu Zhuqing replied, "Its wings are pale red, and it is roughly six to eight meters long."

Tang San calculated briefly in his heart, then said with certainty, "This is a thousand-year Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent. Its pale red wings are the mark of a thousand years of evolution. Judging by its length, six to eight meters, its cultivation should be between thirteen hundred and eighteen hundred years. Oscar, it suits you perfectly."

"The Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent itself is nonvenomous, a rare and powerful nonvenomous snake. It attacks by coiling around enemies and suffocating them. Its attack methods are simple, but it is incredibly fast. Moreover, its crest stores various nutrients that can allow it to gain a burst of speed in a crisis.

"If you obtain this soul ring, then your next soul skill should be related to speed. Whether it boosts speed as support or grants speed to yourself, both would be good choices.

"Because the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent's attack power is not especially strong and its methods are rather limited, thousand-year ones are rare. You're lucky this time."

Seeing the snake, Chen Feng smiled. "By the way, have you ever eaten snake meat?"

Yae Miko smiled slightly. "This Guuji is a fox immortal who has existed for so many years. What meat haven't I eaten? Snake meat, rabbit meat, practically the meat of every little animal—I have eaten them all."

Kamisato Ayaka shook her head. "The rules of the Kamisato Clan do not allow me to eat such things!"

Chen Feng smiled slightly. "This Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent is a top-grade ingredient. It is delicious. How about I hunt it down, and tonight we have snake meat hot pot?"

At that moment, the people from Shrek Academy immediately began surrounding and intercepting the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent.

However, the direction from which the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent was flying was precisely where Chen Feng and the others stood.

"Trying to run? Do you think it'll be that easy?" Zhao Wuji's deep voice rang out. As the third soul ring on his body lit up, the thousand-year Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent's body suddenly stiffened, and its speed dropped sharply. It was Zhao Wuji's third soul ring skill, Gravity Enhancement.

Immediately afterward, Zhao Wuji's fourth and fifth soul rings lit up at the same time. His body shot into the air, and when he landed again, the effect of his fourth soul ring skill, Targeting Lock, placed him directly before the thousand-year Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent. Gravity Squeeze activated at the same time.

No matter how slippery the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent was, it had no room left to struggle before Zhao Wuji's formidable Soul Power.

At that moment, Chen Feng looked at the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, then extended his hand and softly said, "Scatter, Flowing Cherry Blossom!"

Crack!

The next moment, countless cherry blossom petals began appearing in the sky.

The Shrek Seven Devils were utterly astonished, each of them staring at the beautiful cherry blossoms in shock.

Zhu Zhuqing said in surprise, "Why are there so many cherry blossoms here?"

"Yes, they're so beautiful!" Ning Rongrong said, her expression full of enjoyment.

Tang San immediately shouted, "Watch out!"

Just as Tang San's words fell, the cherry blossom petals transformed into blades and descended upon the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent.

Sshhk—

Blood sprayed everywhere as the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent fell to the ground.
