Strange Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 360 Volume C: Outbreak, Strange Snake

On July 22, three Yuelu Sect disciples clashed with four Lingyun Sect disciples on the banks of the Huhe River in Weihuai Road, which then evolved into a fierce battle.

One of the three Yuelu Sect disciples died and two were injured, and two of the four Lingyun Sect disciples died and one was injured.

On July 27, 13 Yuelu Sect disciples who came to ask for punishment, led by a cultivator of the seventh and fourth foundation building levels, encountered Lingyun Sect disciples at Guloupu outside Dahuai Mountain.

The two sides fought fiercely, with seven Lingyun Sect disciples dying and two injured, while only one Yuelu Sect disciple died and one injured.

Immediately after receiving a message from a disciple who fled back to the mountain, a Lingyun Sect disciple of the ninth and fourth foundation building levels led several disciples to rescue and pursue.

The two sides started hunting and killing near Tuancheng Town west of Guloupu.

The battle lasted for three days, and during these three days, Yuelu Sect also received news and continuously sent people to reinforce.

Lingyun Sect was also unwilling to show weakness because it was right under the nose of its own mountain gate, so it also sent people to support.

Both sides invested more and more people, the level was getting higher and higher, and the scope was getting larger and larger.

From Shulu City in the north of Dahuai Mountain to Guloupu in the west, and then to Guanjin Town in the southwest corner, the two sides chased and hunted almost every day.

This war was obviously evolving into a situation where it was getting more and more intense and even out of control.

In the past, Yuelu Sect and Lingyun Sect had also had many conflicts, but they were generally conflicts involving three or five people.

The reason was generally because Lingyun Sect wanted to collect Shufeng, that is, offerings, from Weihuai Road, and the local clans either refused or procrastinated, and in the end Lingyun Sect had to use force to punish and kill one as a warning to the rest.

Then it would attract the intervention of Yuelu Sect, and finally they would meet with weapons.

The result was a win or loss.

The Lingyun Sect's foundation in Wei Huai Dao is not stable, and it can even be said to be weak and fragile. In addition, the local sects, families and clan forces are also complex and ambiguous.

Some are loyal to Yuelu Sect, some are dissatisfied with Yuelu Sect's tyranny and are willing to get close to Lingyun Sect, and some are flirting with Tianhe Sect in the north.

But more people still hope to maintain the original pattern, and they can get the best of both worlds.

In general, Lingyun Sect does not have much support in Wei Huai Dao, and Yuelu Sect has been subtly infiltrating for hundreds of years, and its support is higher.

However, after both sides fought with true fire and became a life-and-death battle, most of these local sects and families shrank back and dared not to get involved, but watched the fierce battle between the two sides.

When Chen Huaisheng received the notice, he was training the Winged Fire Snake in the mountains.

Less than ten days after opening his eyes, the Winged Fire Snake has grown visibly.

From less than two feet when it was hatched, it has now grown to about two feet and five feet, and the fleshy wings under the ribs have also unfolded, so it can fly in the air.

Its growth rate was so fast that it greatly exceeded Chen Huaisheng's expectations, and it completely overturned the common sense that the puberty growth period of the Winged Fire Snake was three years.

According to Chen Huaisheng's prediction, this Winged Fire Snake might be fully mature and enter a stable period in one year according to its current growth trend.

He was a little confused about the situation of this Winged Fire Snake.

He had seen the performance of the Winged Fire Snake in the battle of Tianzhai, which was just unsatisfactory.

You can imagine how powerful a Winged Fire Snake tamed by a fourth-level Qi Refining Tuo was, and it was killed by Zhen Yunpei in the end.

Of course, he also knew that the Winged Fire Snake was a hybrid Winged Fire Snake with very limited strength, and it was also the most normal low-level Winged Fire Snake.

In fact, among the domesticated spirit beasts in both Dazhao and Nanchu cultivation circles, even the middle-level Winged Fire Snake is rarely seen, let alone the higher-level Winged Fire Snake.

There are almost no domesticated fire spirit beasts in Hebei, and spirit plants are too difficult to grow.

But why is the performance of his Winged Fire Snake so extraordinary?

It's not that Chen Huaisheng couldn't figure it out, but he ignored the bonus that he brought to the Winged Fire Snake by using the two five-element divine objects, Red Rock Essence and Xuanhuang Divine Soil, to hatch the Winged Fire Snake eggs.

For general Winged Fire Snake hatching, no one thought of using such divine objects to assist. Most of them chose a sunny hillside with abundant spiritual energy, and the time was slightly longer, half a year to a year.

But Chen Huaisheng used Red Rock Essence, which greatly increased the hatching time of the Winged Fire Snake, and the fire spiritual power was directly injected into the embryo for cultivation.

In addition, the earth-based divine object Xuanhuang Divine Soil directly enhanced the earth-based vitality of the Winged Fire Snake embryo, which greatly improved its growth and original power.

It can be said that the blood money spent by Chen Huaisheng is unmatched by other people who tame spirit beasts.

Of course, no one knows what is so special about the Winged Fire Snake eggs that Chen Huaisheng obtained at the beginning.

Even the friends of the dead ghost monk who held the Winged Fire Snake eggs in the battle of Tianzhai may not know the origin of the Winged Fire Snake eggs hidden in this guy's bag.

They only knew that their friend had hatched two winged fire snake eggs, but after a year of painstaking work on the sunny hillside, only one winged fire snake was hatched. It was eventually raised, but it had died in Zhen Yunpei's hands.

The other one had never been successfully hatched and remained in the monk's bag.

Watching the winged fire snake slowly land on his arm, entwining his arm and hissing and spitting out its tongue, it looked like it wanted to eat again, and Chen Huaisheng had a headache.

Yun Lei next to him was holding a few golden flame beans in her hand. As soon as they were revealed, the winged fire snake stretched and contracted several times like lightning and ate them all.

"Uncle Sheng, you see, there seems to be something different on Xiaohong's head."

Yun Lei was actually reluctant to call Chen Huaisheng "uncle" because Min Qingyu actually called Chen Huaisheng "brother". Although he called him behind people's backs, she still found out twice.

She also wanted to follow Min Qingyu and call him brother, but was flatly rejected by Chen Huaisheng. He called Yun He and Luo Xiuyue "senior brothers and sisters", and Yun Lei also called him "brother". Isn't it confusing the generations?

Chen Huaisheng glanced at the Winged Fire Snake called Xiaohong.

This guy was still shaking his head after swallowing the Golden Flame Bean, as if he was digesting the spiritual power of the Golden Flame Bean. His whole body bloomed with a kind of red clouds in the sun.

The snake body was in a state of expansion due to excitement, and Chen Huaisheng looked at the direction where Yun Lei's finger pointed. There seemed to be some vague rough bulges in the middle of the snake head.

Chen Huaisheng was also a little surprised.

He had also seen the body of the slain Winged Fire Snake after the battle of Tianzhai, and there was nothing special.

The little guy's head seemed a little different. The bulge was in the middle of his forehead, like a raised spine, extending toward the snake's neck, but perhaps it had just begun to appear, and there was no clue yet.

Chen Huaisheng stroked the bulge of fine particles, and the little guy raised his head, spitting out his snake tongue, and his snake eyes flashed red. He seemed to dislike anyone touching this part of him, and there were signs of anger.

Chen Huaisheng was happy, and he became more and more excited. He clamped the little thing's snake neck with his index finger and thumb, and grabbed its head with his other hand to look at it carefully.

The little thing struggled desperately, but under Chen Huaisheng's increasingly heavy force, it could only spit out its snake tongue in vain, but there was already a faint flame floating on the snake tongue, which was a sign of a flame explosion.

Is this little guy angry?

Can it actually generate flames?

So fast?

Chen Huaisheng glanced at the bulging red meat particles and didn't pay much attention to it. But can this little guy already spit out flames?

Chen Huaisheng was a little confused.

Logically speaking, it should take at least half a year before it can start to spit out flames, but this guy is only ten days old. Even if it is extraordinary, is it so amazing?

After thinking about it, Chen Huaisheng signaled Yun Lei and Min Qingyu to move aside, and he let go of the Winged Fire Snake, letting it coil around his arm again, and injected his spiritual consciousness into its body.

This guy is much easier to communicate with than the tiger and ape spirits in his body. As soon as his spiritual consciousness came, he immediately began to curl up his body, and the snake head stretched back, like a fully drawn crossbow, waiting to choose someone to bite.

With a slight wave of his arm, the Winged Fire Snake took off.

The pair of fleshy wings and membrane wings suddenly spread out. Although they were not big, they were more than enough for this young snake that was only two feet long.

The Winged Fire Snake flew in the air, landed suddenly, and under the guidance of Chen Huaisheng's spiritual consciousness, it immediately flew towards a hillside.

When it was only ten feet away from the hillside, its wings suddenly flashed, and the snake tongue in its mouth stretched and retracted, and a ball of red flames spurted out.

The flames bloomed and shot out, and the wings under the ribs of the Winged Fire Snake twitched. There was no wind fanning, but the flames exploded and turned into seven or eight fireballs, flying down in all directions, covering the entire hill, burning fiercely.

Min Qingyu and Yun Lei on the side were shocked. Didn't they say that this guy would be able to spit out flames in half a year?

How could he do it in just over ten days?

Chen Huaisheng was also extremely surprised.

This really spit out flames, and the fluttering of the flesh wings and membrane wings can also stimulate the explosion of flames, but it may still be a little immature in control.

But this is the instinct of the Winged Fire Snake. Maybe after one or two times, it will be able to quickly enter the state.

After spitting out flames, the Winged Fire Snake did not receive any more instructions from Chen Huaisheng's consciousness, and it hovered in the air on its own, complacent.

It was obvious that this "snake" had its first fire explosion, burning the entire hillside, which made it feel very accomplished.

After spitting out flames, the body of the Winged Fire Snake did not seem as red as before, but after Chen Huaisheng took the Golden Flame Bean from Yun Lei's hand and threw it into the air, it seemed to recover after being swallowed by the Winged Fire Snake.

Chen Huaisheng wanted to think about it again, but his spiritual sense sensed that someone was running in the distance, and he knew who he would be here?

He was a little surprised and could only take back the Winged Fire Snake and let it fall back on his arm, but the blazing heat was still strong, and the wide-open snake mouth showed that it was still not satisfied and wanted to eat again, which made Chen Huaisheng a little helpless.

If this continues, if you train every day, then this little bit of food will not last for a month, twenty days, or even half a month.

"Uncle, Master asked me to inform you, please go to Chonghua Hall immediately, the sect has rung the Lingmen Bell." The person who came was Ren Wuchen, Ren Wugui's younger brother and Zhao Sitian's apprentice.
