Zhu Yuan looked around and slowly put the bag down.
Chu Li asked, "You'll just leave us here?"
"You'll have to wait for it to eat the spirit herbs," Zhu Yuan said, "and observe it."
Chu Li asked, "Will it not eat?"
Zhu Yuan shook his head. "Sometimes it needs to shed its skin and needs more spirit herbs. It can't wait ten days, it needs five days to feed it."
Chu Li slowly nodded.
A moment later, a green light flashed and a jade green spirit snake was lying on top of the spirit herbs. It was what Chu Li saw earlier.
Its entire body looked like it was carved out of jade. Not only did it not give off an eerie feeling, but it was also beautiful. One would want to reach out and touch it, but one would have goosebumps when looking at its cold and merciless vertical pupils.
It laid on top of the spirit herbs and raised its delicate head. It looked at Chu Li and Zhu Yuan, its tongue hissing in and out at an extremely fast speed.
After staring at Chu Li and Zhu Yuan for a while, the snake slowly lowered its head and remained motionless on top of the spirit herbs.
A colorful aura gushed out from the bag of spirit herbs, fluttered into the spirit snake's mouth, and disappeared into it.
The bulging spirit herb bag suddenly shriveled and the spirit herbs seemed to have disappeared.
The Emerald Spirit Snake laid on top of the bag without moving, as if it was full and did not want to move.
Chu Li turned to look at Zhu Yuan. "It's full, right?"
"Yes." Zhu Yuan smiled. "Let's complete the mission."
Chu Li smiled. "That's quite easy."
"It's easy, but the spirit herbs are the key." Zhu Yuan nodded. "Let's go."
They turned around and took two steps when Chu Li pushed Zhu Yuan.
"Swoosh!" A green shadow flashed and Zhu Yuan staggered to avoid it.
Chu Li quickly shouted, "Be careful!"
Zhu Yuan looked at the green shadow in confusion. He did not know why the spirit snake would suddenly attack him.
Chu Li suddenly stood in front of Zhu Yuan and pressed his palm forward.
"Bam!" The spirit snake collided with the Heavenly King Palm Energy. It sounded like a hammer hitting a piece of wood.
It paused in the air and curled its body before shooting towards Zhu Yuan again. It was determined to kill him.
Chu Li used another Heavenly King Palm.
"Bam!"
"Bam!"
"Bam!"
Chu Li unleashed three Heavenly King Palms in one go, blocking the Spirit Snake outside his palm.
Zhu Yuan asked blankly, "What's going on?"
Chu Li scoffed. "Just now, the bag contained spirit herbs that it hated. It made its whole body uncomfortable!"
He could sense the changes in the Spirit Snake's emotions. It was already extremely furious and determined to kill Zhu Yuan.
Its intelligence was not inferior to a human's. It knew that the Spirit Grass was brought by Zhu Yuan, so it wanted to kill Zhu Yuan. However, it had already angered it by blocking its way, so it wanted to kill it as well.
"That's impossible!" Zhu Yuan shouted, "I picked the spiritual grasses one by one, there's no way I'm wrong!"
Chu Li shook his head. "Let's retreat first."
"Oh," Zhu Yuan answered and hurriedly walked out.
Chu Li brought up the rear and repeatedly blocked the Spirit Snake with his palms. The Spirit Snake's emotions turned from anger to irritation, and its jade-like body began to expand. Its cold eyes gradually lit up, and the force it used to collide with Chu Li's palm energy became stronger and faster.
When the two retreated into the ravine, it suddenly howled and flew into the sky. It flew over Chu Li's head and landed at the entrance of the ravine, blocking their way out. Then, a green glow shot towards Chu Li.
Chu Li pulled Zhu Yuan and retreated.
"Hiss …" The green glow landed on the ground and suddenly disappeared. Then, the weeds within ten meters withered and turned into ashes.
Chu Li's Omniscient Mirror clearly saw the green glow turn into poisonous gas and spread. It was extremely toxic, and it could cut one's throat without bleeding.
Chu Li's face darkened as he slowly pulled out his long sword. The Modesty Sword was dull, but under the activation of his inner energy, it flashed with a frightening aura.
He realized that God's Limbs and the Divine Void Light Technique could not be used. Goddess Attraction Mountain was indeed strange, but he did not know if it was because of a formation or something else. Otherwise, he would have escaped long ago.
Not only were God's Limbs and the Divine Void Light Technique restricted, but Imminent Skyline and other body movement techniques were also slowed down. However, the Spirit Snake did not seem to be affected and moved extremely quickly. If this continued, they would not be able to escape.
Zhu Yuan knew at a glance that the Modesty Sword was a Spirit Weapon. He quickly said, "Brother Chu, you can't hurt it!"
Chu Li said, "It won't let us leave if we don't hurt it."
"If you hurt it, Brother Chu, you won't be able to stay on Goddess Attraction Mountain anymore!" Zhu Yuan said.
Chu Li said coldly, "Looks like it was Senior Brother Zhou's doing!"
Zhu Yuan gritted his teeth. "Vicious!"
He was certain that there was absolutely no problem with the spirit herbs he had picked, but Zhou Jie had turned them over halfway. He must have done something to them and angered the spirit snake. This Zhou Jie was truly vicious. He wanted their lives!
Chu Li said, "You go first."
"No." Zhu Yuan shook his head. "Let's go together!"
Chu Li said, "Brother Zhu, you can ask Senior Brother Zhou for help. He can't just leave us to die, right?"
"This …" Zhu Yuan frowned.
Chu Li said, "I think Senior Brother Zhou can appease this Spirit Snake?"
"He should be able to." Zhu Yuan nodded.
Chu Li said, "If it doesn't help us, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Zhu Yuan thought about it and nodded. This was a good idea. He would not be able to help here. His martial arts skills were too weak and he would only be a burden. He could not help but say, "Alright, I'll go find Zhou Jie!"
Chu Li took a step forward and a misty sword light flashed.
The Spirit Snake rushed forward.
"Ding …" The sword and the snake's body let out a sound of metal clashing.
The Spirit Snake was shaken by the sword energy and its strength was instantly dissipated. Its body stopped and fell to the ground.
"Go!" Chu Li pushed Zhu Yuan.
Zhu Yuan was thrown out like a stone from a catapult. He flew out of the ravine in the blink of an eye.
The Spirit Snake hissed and its body expanded again. It shot toward Chu Li angrily and no longer chased after Zhu Yuan.
Chu Li waved his sword and covered his body.
"Ding ding ding ding …" The continuous clear sound was like rain hitting on banana leaves.
He waved his sword and retreated.
— —
Zhu Yuan turned to look at Chu Li and the Spirit Snake. He hurriedly ran toward the basilica. After a while, he arrived at the basilica but did not see Zhou Jie. He shouted, "Senior Zhou!"
"Senior Zhou …" His voice was very loud.
But Zhou Jie seemed to have disappeared.
Zhu Yuan immediately thought that Zhou Jie must be hiding in a corner and did not let him find him. He was furious and shouted, "Zhou Jie — —!"
"Zhou Jie — —!"
"Zhou Jie — —! Get out here! "
He stood in front of the basilica and cursed loudly.
Unfortunately, Zhou Jie did not make a sound. It seemed like he was really not there.
Zhu Yuan turned to look at the white cranes in front of the basilica and realized there were only two. It was obvious that Zhou Jie rode the other one away. He was really not there and might be hiding below.
"Ah — —!" He stomped his feet and screamed at the sky.
"Brother Zhu!" Chu Li's voice suddenly rang in his ears.
Zhu Yuan saw that Chu Li was already in front of him. He immediately smiled and sighed in relief.
Chu Li pulled him up. "Hurry up and leave!"
Before he finished speaking, a green shadow flashed and the Spirit Snake attacked again.
Chu Li could only wave his sword to block it. He said helplessly, "It can actually leave the ravine!"
He originally thought that the Spirit Snake would only stay in the ravine and that he could get rid of it by leaving the ravine. He did not expect that it did not care about the ravine at all and continued to chase after them.
