"Wow!"
The children gasped in surprise.
What Xie Feng could do with his hands was, in the eyes of these naive children, a feat comparable to a groundbreaking hero!
Their eyes lit up, and they all followed along with great interest.
These four children are quite talented. Sushang had previously taught them basic cultivation methods, and they were able to generate some Origin Power.
Cang Tong and the other three successfully unleashed their Sword Qi.
"Good!"
Xie Feng nodded, offering encouragement in a teacher's tone.
The children were encouraged and became more enthusiastic about learning; these basic things were then taught by Sushang.
Previously in the Dao Realm, she had also founded Autumn Maple Academy, where she was very adept at teaching students.
Every time Xie Feng looks at Xiao Shang patiently guiding her students, he can't help but sigh – the little girl has grown up!
Before they knew it, the sun had set and night had fallen. The village was very spacious, Xie Feng and his six companions could sleep wherever they wanted without having to fight over anything; it was very roomy.
A certain room.
Ze Ling sat cross-legged on the bed, learning the ability to absorb energy. As she gradually inhaled and exhaled, strands of Origin Power seeped into her pores and were then slowly absorbed.
A tiny fraction of the Origin Power dispersed to the limbs and bones, while the majority condensed and entered the Dantian.
Deep within her Dantian, a golden ball of light, about the size of a soybean, floated, though it was very dim.
After a large amount of Origin Power was absorbed, the light cluster briefly brightened as if to give her face, but quickly dimmed again. This light cluster was not innate, but unique to her!
Ze Ling was young, and his Dantian was not fully developed, so it could not hold too much Origin Power. After a short while, he was unable to absorb it.
But instead of resting, she picked up her sword, went to the courtyard, and began practicing the Xuanji Sword Art taught by Sushang that day, move by move.
The moonlight was cold and clear, and the sound of swords clashing filled the air.
And so, one night passed.
In the early hours of the morning, Cang Tong and A Ning appeared on the back mountain of the village. After learning a few Swordsmanship, they couldn't wait to put them to use.
" A Ning, do you think I can kill a Devil-Devouring Tiger?"
"Cannot."
"Oh dear, why don't you have any faith in me at all?"
"No."
"How boring! I possess the bloodlines of the Blazing Devil Dragon and the Flame Spirit Blood Wolf! The Blazing Devil Dragon is definitely stronger than the Devil-Devouring Tiger!"
That's pureblood, not you.
A Ning spoke expressionlessly while observing her surroundings with her hand on her sword.
Cang Tong curled her lip, saying Qi Ingestion, "So what if I'm pureblood? So what if I'm mixed-blood? Who's more noble than whom..."
A Ning said, "You've lived eight years in vain! Don't you know that in this world, pure-blooded Earthborn Devil Creature are more noble than mixed-bloods?"
Cang Tong rolled her eyes. "You're mixed-race too, don't speak up for those bad people!"
A Ning sighed, "I'm telling the truth!"
"We are an unwelcome group. In the territory of pure-blooded Earthborn Devil Creature, our sect leader is human. He is just like us and will be ostracized. Therefore, we must cultivate diligently to protect our sect leader and Elder Sushang!"
Cang Tong clenched his fist, his eyes resolute.
A Ning said, "But the sect leader and Elder Sushang are very powerful; they don't need our protection..."
Cang Tong stammered angrily, "You, you, you... why are you always going against me?! You've been like this ever since we were serving the Flame Cloud Leopards!"
"So what are you angry about? Everyone knows this is my personality."
A Ning turned around and asked with some confusion.
Cang Tong: "..."
hateful!
What she said makes so much sense!
Unable to refute it...
"Stop arguing, let's move forward and see what prey we encounter."
A Ning spoke, she walked forward, Cang Tong, like a defeated rooster, followed dejectedly with his head down.
The further they went, the deeper the forest became. The two drew their swords, gripped them tightly, and cautiously scanned their surroundings as they walked.
Flutter!
Suddenly, the sound of falling leaves rustling through the air rang out!
"Observe carefully..."
A Ning instinctively shielded Cang Tong behind her. Cang Tong felt his pride was hurt and immediately took two steps forward to stand at the front.
He turned around and laughed, "I'm a man, I'll be in front!"
A Ning said helplessly, "Can you stop being so childish? I'm a tomboy!"
She always possesses a calmness and composure that surpasses that of ordinary children in her speech and actions.
The two walked forward cautiously, observing their surroundings warily, their fingers unconsciously gripping the hilts of their swords.
suddenly!
A dark shadow descended from the sky and darted straight towards us!
Towards Cang Tong!
Cang Tong frowned, immediately raised his sword, and slashed down!
"Hiss--"
The dark figure let out a strange and painful cry, then fell to the ground with a thud—it was a huge, bloody snake!
However, it is indeed a snake, with very distinct black and white scales and black horns on its head!
It was nearly ten feet long, with several bloody holes on its body, as if it had suffered serious injuries. Above its eyes, there was a white sword mark, a gift from Cang Tong, which had not broken the skin but had cut off several scales.
The giant serpent exuded a strong Evil Qi. Its blood-red eyes were wide open, its tongue flicking out. In its eyes, there was coldness, but even more so, a desire!
It was extremely weak because of its injury.
Need to replenish energy!
It just so happens that it sees these two children, who are Earthborn Devil Creature, which perfectly meet its energy needs.
Therefore, it launched an attack on its own initiative!
The giant snake stared at Cang Tong, and suddenly a jet of purplish-black venom shot out from the tip of its forked tongue!
Cang Tong hurriedly drew his sword to block.
A Ning's gaze darkened. She rushed over and kicked Cang Tong away, getting herself drenched in venom!
This highly toxic venom, capable of corroding countless organisms, had absolutely no effect on her!
The giant snake's eyes twitched.
This was something it hadn't anticipated; someone was actually unafraid of its own venom!
Seeing that A Ning was being attacked, Cang Tong rushed over in a flurry of activity, leaped into the air, and swung his sword down towards the giant snake's eye!
This time, it was a targeted, solid strike!
Sword Qi whistled through the air.
Bang!
The giant snake was instantly cut down.
It writhed and rolled violently on the ground, emitting a piercing wail, its two snake eyes bursting out.
The power of the Emperor Sword is extraordinary.
Seeing this, A Ning immediately followed up with several sword strikes, calmly slicing the giant snake in two. Blood flowed like a river, staining her shoes, socks, and trouser legs red.
"You were right on time!" A Ning breathed a sigh of relief and praised.
"Don't flatter me, it's you who's amazing, you're not even afraid of venom!" Cang Tong scratched the back of his head and laughed, "I admit, you're better than me!"
"It's best not to jump to conclusions." A Ning was allergic to praise, so she gave a slight twitch of her lips.
"Look! What is this?"
Cang Tong exclaimed in surprise, having made a new discovery.
Two golden scales were found on the snake's head!
These golden scales stood out dazzlingly against the black and white snake scales, shrouded in wisps of spiritual energy, making one irresistibly want to pick them.
Cang Tong squatted down, plucked the golden scales, and gave them to A Ning:
Here, one for each of you!
