Blatant Robbery
Assessment area, secluded forest, black swamp.
A dark aura shrouded the entire forest. It was extremely eerie and cold, as if it was the Nine Hells of Hell.
In the black swamp, one could vaguely see a huge black head half exposed. Its eyes were closed as it slept.
Two black breaths were puffed out from its nostrils, stirring up the void. Those terrifying black breaths could even destroy everything.
This was a black python, the king of this area. It was a Grade 2 ferocious beast and was extremely powerful.
Even cultivators with more experience would not dare to kill this black python one-on-one.
Even a Grade 1 All Knowing would have to expend some effort to kill this black python. It was not an easy task.
And around this black python, there were more than ten green pythons. They were much smaller, only about five feet long. These green pythons were Grade 1 ferocious beasts and were the black python's subordinates. They were in charge of guarding the black python.
These green pythons were not as comfortable as the black python. They had to be vigilant at all times and scan their surroundings.
Moreover, there were a few green pythons patrolling the area. They made sure that no humans could enter within a thousand feet radius. They also did not want other ferocious beasts to disturb the black python's sleep.
However, these green pythons did not realize that in the forest not far away, there were two black eyes staring at them. The eyes landed on the black python that was sleeping soundly.
The surroundings were very quiet. It was deathly quiet. Not a sound could be heard.
There was only the aura of death.
In the black swamp, half exposed white bones could be seen everywhere. There were also skulls that were half-dyed black. It was terrifying just looking at them.
No one knew how many corpses were buried in this black swamp.
The rotten stench in the air was so strong that it made one nauseous. If an ordinary person saw such a scene, they would be scared half to death. They would not be able to maintain their composure at all.
Swoosh!
A whistling sound suddenly broke the silence between heaven and earth. A figure turned into a flash of lightning and whizzed out.
The wind moved!
The silence was broken!
The dozen or so green pythons also sensed the movement. Their eerie gazes looked over and quickly locked onto a figure in the air.
However, the speed of that figure was simply too fast, so fast that those green pythons had no way of reacting. By the time the green pythons reacted, the figure had already arrived in front of the black pythons.
A sword flashed with a strange sharpness, accompanied by a waterfall.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two green pythons that were guarding the black pythons moved. They stood upright, flicked their long tongues, and opened their huge mouths to bite the figure.
However, two streaks of cold light flashed by with unparalleled sharpness, directly cutting through the bodies of the two green pythons.
Huala!
Without any suspense, the two green pythons were directly beheaded by the two sword Qis. Green blood spurted out, and then the two halves of their bodies fell down powerlessly, heavily smashing into the black swamp, splashing black mud several feet high.
After breaking through this line of defense, there was no longer any obstruction to the sword's edge, and it directly charged towards the sleeping black python.
The huge head of the sleeping black python was covered with black scales the size of a basin. These black scales emitted a strange light, and one could feel that their defensive ability was very terrifying.
When the sword arrived, the black python's eyes finally opened. They were like two black holes, dark and frightening.
Huala!
The black python's body instantly pulled out of the black swamp, turned into a flash of lightning, and flung towards the figure.
The black python's body was covered with extremely hard scales, and its defensive ability was very strong. Therefore, the black python was not afraid of any sword, and directly used its body to resist the attack of the sword.
When the figure that attacked the black python was about to clash with it, his body suddenly moved, and strangely avoided the black python. His body changed direction in an instant, and then he stabbed with the sword.
This change happened so fast that the black python could not react at all.
Clang!!!
The sword stabbed the black python's body, and the powerful force caused sparks to fly all over the sky.
"What a strong defense! What a strong resistance!"
The person holding the sword was shocked, but his sword carried an unparalleled sharpness. He continued to exert force, and finally broke through the defense of the scales, and directly pierced the black python's body.
The powerful sword energy collapsed and directly exploded in the black python's body, and suddenly a basin sized wound appeared. Black blood flowed out like a fountain.
Roar!!!
The injured black python opened its bloody mouth and let out an extremely angry roar that shook the nine heavens.
His gigantic body immediately stirred up the entire Black Swamp. Countless white bones flew up like snowflakes filling the sky, presenting a strange scene.
"As expected of a level two black python, it's really difficult to kill. I've been subdued for three days and three nights just for this one attack, but I only managed to injure this black python, and I didn't manage to kill it with one blow. "
This figure was none other than Qin Xiao.
In the blink of an eye, it had already been a year since he entered the Dark Forest. In this year, he had been wandering around alone, and his harvest was not small.
Out of the 100 items, he had already collected 30 of them. At this rate, he should be able to collect all of them in another three years.
At that time, he could return to the Temple of All Things and officially become a one star All Things Expert.
This speed was extremely fast.
This time, Qin Xiao discovered a black python, but did not rush to attack. Instead, he lay dormant for three days, observing the situation and waiting for an opportunity to act.
After all, the black python was a level two savage beast, and its strength was not to be underestimated.
And for this mission, Qin Xiao needed to collect three black python gallbladders. This mission was not easy.
Fortunately, black pythons usually lived alone, and it was better to deal with one at a time. If black pythons lived in groups, it would be really difficult to deal with them.
Of course, Qin Xiao had not used his full strength in this year. In this year's time, doing missions like this, in addition to the rewards from the missions, he also gained a lot of understanding of the Way of All Things.
Qin Xiao also accumulated a lot of new things in the use of the Way of All Things.
"Human, you're courting death!"
The black python actually spoke in human language, and let out a gloomy and cold voice. With an extreme roar, it waved its huge body and charged towards Qin Xiao.
Although Qin Xiao's strength was greatly suppressed in the Heart of All Things World, he still had experience. However, Qin Xiao's experience was still there. Naturally, Qin Xiao would not panic when dealing with such a Class 2 Direbeast.
With his eyesight, it was easy for him to find the black python's weakness, and then find the right opportunity to attack.
Such a way of fighting hurt the black python very much.
It attacked again and again, but Qin Xiao dodged all of its attacks.
And every time Qin Xiao dodged, he would launch a round of attacks. Qin Xiao's sword would pierce into the black python's body, and a bloody hole would be created.
Time and time again, the black python was injured again and again. Soon, it was covered with cuts and bruises, and its body was full of bloody holes. It looked very shocking and scary.
The black python roared again and again, but it could not turn the situation around. It was completely trampled by Qin Xiao.
Although its life was tough, it could not withstand Qin Xiao's repeated attacks.
In this way, after fighting for half a day, the black python's divine body was exhausted and died, and its huge body fell into the black swamp.
The black python was full of good things, and many of them were more valuable. Naturally, Qin Xiao would not give them away. In addition to the black python's gallbladder, the snake's horn, the snake's tongue, and the snake's tendons were all good things, and he kept them one by one.
As for the green pythons, Qin Xiao could not be bothered with them.
Since the black python had died at the hands of Qin Xiao, the green pythons had long scattered and fled. How would they dare to come and take revenge on Qin Xiao?
After dealing with the black python and cleaning up the spoils of war, Qin Xiao was about to leave, but three figures rushed out of the secluded forest and blocked Qin Xiao's way.
These three people had greed written all over their faces, and their eyes were extremely fierce. It was obvious at a glance that they were not good people.
Qin Xiao frowned slightly, and looked coldly at the three people in front of him, saying, "You three, are you trying to rob me?"
There were rules in the assessment area as well. Killing and robbing could result in punishment.
Of course, the premise was that they were discovered by the people from the Temple of All Things.
In the assessment area, there were also people from the Temple of All Things patrolling. If they were seen by the patrolling people, they would naturally be in trouble.
Of course, there was another situation, and that was if someone reported this matter to the Temple of All Things, the Temple of All Things would investigate. If they investigated, it would be very easy to find out.
A man with a protruding mouth and ape-like cheeks had a sinister smile on his face, and said with a ruminating look, "No, no, no. How could you say it's robbery? That's too unpleasant to hear. We are not that kind of people. We won't rob you. "
"Since you are not, then I will take my leave." Qin Xiao said coldly, and prepared to leave.
But these three people clearly had no intention of letting him go. Qin Xiao also knew that the purpose of these three people was definitely not so simple.
They had come with ill intentions.
The man with a protruding mouth and ape-like cheeks said with a sinister smile, "Hehe, brother, don't be in such a hurry to leave. We will not rob people, but we also like to make some ordinary transactions. Brother, you have great strength, daring to kill the black python with your own strength, and you even succeeded in killing it. Your strength is indeed not bad. "
"We are still lacking the gallbladder of the black python. I wonder if you could part with it and sell it to us?"
It sounded like they were discussing a transaction, but their words clearly carried a hint of threat.
They were just short of saying that you would have to sell it even if you didn't want to.
How was this buying? This was clearly robbery. It was just a dignified way of saying it.
But no matter how dignified the words were, they could not hide the sinister and ugly face.
Qin Xiao understood the situation very well. These three people had come for his black python gallbladder. If they did not achieve their goal, he was afraid that these three people would not let him go.
In the past year since he entered the Dark Forest, Qin Xiao's conduct and conduct were very low-key, and he did not provoke anyone. He had always been a lone wolf, and did not compete with others for anything. Therefore, in the past year, he had not formed any enmity with anyone. His journey had been peaceful, and it had saved him a lot of trouble, allowing Qin Xiao to train in peace.
