The Medicine's Effects

"Crane Soaring are a bit outrageous!"

After Zhang Xuezhou's genes were transformed, his Crane Soaring ability in Crane Form Fist was rendered useless.

However, Zhang Xuezhou's method of imitating the Crane Soaring flight of a crane using cloud-riding techniques was very simple.

After several leaps, his body floated out of the cave. Zhong Rang, who was followed by three strange snakes, felt incredulous. He felt that the younger generation was being pushed aside by the older generation, and that they, the elders, had been swept away and left to die on the beach.

Zhong Rang never seen anyone as agile as Zhang Xuezhou. He felt as if Zhang Xuezhou was riding a surfboard, able to surf and run freely even in an area like the Snake Cave.

This is not the kind of levitation ability that Crane Soaring should possess. Ordinary people could not achieve this level. Even if Zhong Rang had the genes of a crane and practiced for ten or eight years, he felt that he could not achieve this level.

But it's not wrong to pin the blame on Zhang Xuezhou.

On one hand, this is Zhang Xuezhou's only Gene Fighting Technique; apart from that, Zhang Xuezhou is only proficient with firearms.

At least in Zhong Rang's information, the corresponding information for Zhang Xuezhou is as follows.

On the other hand, as the most outstanding young person among the alternate members, Zhong Rang can accept the other party's differences to a certain extent, even his unreasonable and eccentric aspects.

In short, everything is perfect.

Zhong Rang's amazement was short-lived. The further he ran outside the cave, the more snakes he encountered, including various slender and venomous snakes.

Previously, he had used his ability to suppress his life force to make his body appear as if he were dead, thus avoiding detection by the snake swarm. However, now that he was dragging three strange snakes weighing over 100 pounds each, he not only needed to exert force but also needed to get out of the snake pit in the shortest possible time, making it difficult for his body to maintain its previous state.

Groups of snakes roamed about, relentlessly pursuing their prey.

Ahead of them, perhaps having received some kind of message, snakes blocked their way; some snakes even poked their heads out from the cave ceiling to bite, while others fell directly down.

Zhang Xuezhou left and right with apparent ease, Zhong Rang was clearly not having such an easy time.

Some venomous snakes even fell onto his body, causing Zhong Rang panic.

Without the Seventh Sequence resistance layer, Zhong Rang physically strong, but within the realm of humanity, he still faces challenges such as snake bites and poisoning.

"Damn spicy strips! When I get back to Western Capital City, I'm going to get the best snake repellent and poison you snakes to the point of death!"

Once he broke free of the snake pit, Zhong Rang cursed angrily and squeezed several numb spots on his neck to force out the swollen, blackened poisonous blood.

"Would you like to chew it? I think this medicine has some detoxifying properties!"

When Zhang Xuezhou handed him a hard lump that smelled cool and pungent amidst the stench of the snake pit, Zhong Rang didn't have time to remove his breathing mask to examine it. He simply took it and chewed it down.

"What kind of medicine is this? It burns my throat!"

After chewing haphazardly and swallowing it in one gulp, Zhong Rang felt as if he had almost ascended to heaven.

He touched his neck and felt the swelling in the area where he had been bitten by the venomous snake rapidly subsiding; the medicinal effect of expelling the venom happened almost instantly.

However, this rapid reaction meant that the drug, which entered his stomach through his mouth, reached his neck in a short time, which also corresponded to the violent impact.

Zhong Rang not only felt a burning sensation in his mouth, throat, and stomach, but his body was also rapidly swelling and changing in a short period of time.

The spiciness isn't a taste, but a pain, a pain so intense it Zhong Rang your brain turn white.

Compared to the stinging sensation, Zhong Rang felt that the snake venom wound did not seem too serious.

"My blood feels like it's boiling, I can't take it anymore," Zhong Rang gritted teeth.

"This doesn't seem to be an illness. Why don't you try killing snakes nearby, or perhaps you could take a long-distance run to see if that can alleviate the burning sensation in your body!"

"It seems... can something like this really be described with just 'seems'?"

Zhong Rang out a shout.

But a sharp pain shot through his body, making him feel as if he were about to ascend to heaven again. His mind went blank for a moment, making it difficult to think. He dragged the three strange snakes and ran wildly.

"The drug's effects seem a bit too strong, apparently exceeding what Committee Member Zhong could tolerate!"

Zhang Xuezhou had a basic understanding of the medicinal properties of the snake-hole plant, but the exact level of medicinal properties could only be determined after tasting it.

Sequence Holder has a resistance layer is clearly a standard, just like the Divine Ability abilities possessed by cultivators in the Divine Ability Realm.

The drug's effects could cause Zhong Rang experience a rapid surge of blood and energy within a short period. Zhang Xuezhou believed that this drug was powerful enough to affect those at the Seventh Sequence, which might correspond to pills for cultivators with Divine Ability powers or higher.

The Spiritual Qi released after the Qin Meng Secret Stone shattered could help Zhang Xuezhou cultivate the Yang Soul Transformation Technique, or help Ren Anran break through to the Divine Ability Realm, or assist others, while the medicine in the Snake Cave involved high-level medicine.

If drugs can produce matching and replacement effects, this could even involve elixirs such as the Creation Elixir.

For example, the tuber that Zhong Rang took had an extremely strong stimulating effect. If Zhong Rang could run for dozens or hundreds of miles to buffer the impact of the Qi and Blood in his body, this might be the best suitable medicinal material for the Qi and Blood Creation Pill.

"Committee Member Zhong, don't run west, run north!"

In the darkness, Zhang Xuezhou shone his flashlight and saw Zhong Rang's figure disappear rapidly. Only the sound of footsteps could be heard in the distance, and the continuous sounds of three strange snakes being dragged and colliding could be heard.

"Is he that delirious?"

Zhong Rang was not running towards the direction where he would reunite with Changkong Luo and the others, but rather towards the place where Zhang Xuezhou's tiger roar had come from.

This area was not only filled with filth such as snake corpses and snake blood, but also with a huge number of snakes. Even if the snakes in the back were just remnants, they still covered the entire mountainside.

The further you go, the larger the snake swarm becomes.

"Committee Member Zhong, Committee Member Zhong..."

Zhang Xuezhou shouted out.

He leaped up and quickly followed.

Not to mention that there is an antidote within seven steps of a venomous snake, Spiritual Qi can also alleviate poisoning. Herbs growing at the source of Spiritual Qi can alleviate or even heal injuries and poisoning, regardless of their specific effects.

He only noticed that Zhong Rang had been bitten by venomous snakes in many places, not just on his neck, but also on his waist, back, legs, and other parts of his body. His body was even numb and the injuries were hard to detect, so it was impossible for him to have escaped far away.

This snake den is not something ordinary people can explore. Even though the snakes have already come out in large numbers, Zhong Rang, a Sixth Sequence individual, cannot run rampant in it.

Zhang Xuezhou had a rough idea of what the medication was and even recommended taking it quickly, but he had no idea that its effects would be so extreme.

"First I was poisoned by sedatives, then by snakebite medicine; both of them spiraled out of control!"

Zhang Xuezhou felt that the mistake was continuing, or even that a second mistake was being made.

This made him somewhat suspicious, and for a moment he wondered whether he was having good luck or bad luck, or whether he had encountered a backlash from helping Chimon Hagrid use the Zuo Quan Lucky Jewelry.

"If this is a backlash, it hasn't happened to me!"

He struggled to grasp the connection at first.

But Zhong Rang was clearly trying to catch up, and this kind of pursuit was beyond his reach.

After chasing for several miles, Zhang Xuezhou heard a dull thud followed by the incessant hissing of countless snakes.

"Don't block the way, please move aside!"

In a sea of snakes, humans are undoubtedly insignificant.

And in this battle zone, there were not only swarms of snakes, but also a snake king and ferocious beasts that had transformed into tigers.

As Zhang Xuezhou's flashlight shone through, he saw a ferocious beast break free of its transformation, revealing its enormous body, and engaging in a primal, instinctive struggle.

Some defeated men lay on the ground, overwhelmed by countless snakes; others continued their frenzied smashing; and still others, tiger-shaped beasts, constantly changing forms, launched repeated attacks.

The area was in complete chaos. Zhong Rang had rushed in haphazardly, yelled and grabbed the dead snake he had dragged along, using it as a whip. With his bloodshot eyes wide, he charged in as well.
