Could this be the World of Monsters and Demons?
Ding Ning became more and more confused. He felt extremely uneasy!
However, he could not back down now. With the temptation of the Fruit of Way, he could only force himself to continue.
He bid farewell to the ancient trees reluctantly and continued forward. Of course, this was his personal opinion. The ancient trees must want him to leave as soon as possible.
The unknown was the source of fear. After knowing the basic situation of the Thousand Demons Territory, Ding Ning felt more at ease. He looked at the green mountains and clear waters, and the colorful mist. His mood was different.
Previously, he was afraid of the dangers here, so he did not dare to fly. He could only walk on the ground.
However, now that he knew that this was the Thousand Demons Territory and there were big demons, he had no more worries. He spread his wings and flew towards the inner area of the Thousand Demons Territory.
Ever since he awakened the Kun Peng's bloodline, his bare wings had changed greatly. They were covered with golden feathers. He looked like a god and was extremely cool.
Even though his flying speed had surpassed the speed of sound and reached more than two thousand kilometers per hour, it would still take him more than two days to travel a distance of more than a million kilometers. Moreover, the Thousand Demons Territory was unusual. He could not fly in the air all the time, so he needed more time.
Along the way, he encountered many dangers. Fortunately, he was fast enough and his divine sense could detect danger in advance, so he could avoid them in time.
On the second day, when he flew over a gourd-shaped lake, he saw a giant snake with three pupils and a giant yellow armored crocodile-like monster fighting beside the lake.
The terrifying aftermath of the battle had sealed the entire space, so he could not pass through. He had to carefully land on a mountain far away and wait for the result of the battle between the two demons before passing through.
The white snake's vertical pupils were terrifying. It could actually shoot out a terrifying black ray of light. When it hit the hard and thick armor of the giant crocodile, its skin and flesh split open. Blood splattered everywhere. Every drop of blood was as clear as a ruby and contained terrifying vitality.
The giant crocodile roared in pain and spat out golden flames from its mouth. The flames could burn stones and it was extremely terrifying. The white snake had no choice but to dive into the lake to avoid the flames.
The giant crocodile seemed to be extremely afraid of the lake and did not dare to enter. It opened its huge mouth and spat out flames, trying to evaporate the lake.
Wisps of water vapor rose and covered the entire sky above the lake. The water vapor seemed to have some kind of magical power that could actually isolate Divine Sense.
Ding Ning could not see the situation of the battle. He could only feel that the two giant beasts were fighting again in the white mist. The entire battlefield was shaking. Occasionally, golden flames leaped out of the white mist and melted the surrounding mountain peaks silently. Ding Ning was so frightened that he fled hundreds of miles away for fear of being affected.
"Roar!"
Mournful howls resounded through the horizon, and a crystalline rain of blood sprinkled down like a torrential downpour. It was obvious how tragic the situation of the battle was.
Ding Ning guessed that the giant crocodile was at a disadvantage because he saw pieces of charred yellow scales falling with the rain of blood.
"Bang!" A huge shadow was thrown out of the mist.
The giant crocodile was defeated, but it didn't die. Its tail was broken, and its body was covered in blood. It let out a furious roar, but it didn't dare to enter the mist again. In the end, it could only leave resentfully.
The white snake curled up at the bottom of the lake. Its injuries were not clear. It opened its huge mouth and sucked hard. The mist quickly dispersed and turned into a thick mist that entered its abdomen, repairing its body that was covered with cuts and bruises.
At the moment, there was only a shallow layer of lake water left in the huge lake. A burst of fragrance came to Ding Ning's nose. He looked over in surprise and found that there was a shining golden lotus at the bottom of the lake. The fragrance was emitted when the lotus was in full bloom.
Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus!
Ding Ning was shocked. He didn't expect it to be the Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus. This was a peerless medicine. For the Human Clan, it had the miraculous effect of reviving the dead. For the Demon Clan, it was an elixir that could increase one's cultivation by a thousand years and transform into a human form.
However, this thing was extremely strange. The lotus had nine petals, but the nine lotus petals didn't bloom at the same time. Instead, they bloomed one petal every two hours. If the nine petals were not fully bloomed, it would have no effect.
However, every time a petal bloomed, it could emit a strange fragrance that could spread for thousands of miles. Powerful creatures that smelled the fragrance would definitely rush over to fight for it. This Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus only had eight petals. In other words, in order to protect the Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus, the white snake had to fight off nine groups of powerful demonic beasts. One petal was one tribulation, so it was called the Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus. Many demonic beasts that guarded the Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus ended up working for others.
At the moment, the white snake's injuries were extremely serious. Although it used the lake water that contained the medicinal properties of the golden lotus to heal its injuries, it was far from being able to recover to its peak state. It couldn't even recover ten to twenty percent of its injuries. It was impossible for it to resist the powerful demonic beasts that would be attracted when the ninth petal of the golden lotus bloomed.
It should be known that the closer the Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus bloomed, the more powerful the demonic beasts it would attract. Even if the fire-spitting giant crocodile was not as strong as the white snake, it wasn't much weaker. From this, it could be seen that the white snake wouldn't survive this last tribulation.
Ding Ning's mind raced. Should he help the white snake? It wasn't that he was benevolent, but he knew that very few people knew that the most precious part of the Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus wasn't the nine lotus seeds, but the Golden Silk Jade Roots buried at the bottom of the lake.
Although the Golden Silk Jade Roots didn't have any medicinal properties, it only tasted good. However, it had the ability to reproduce asexually. In other words, if Ding Ning could get the Golden Silk Jade Roots and plant them in the Medicine Spiritual Ring, he would be able to harvest the Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus limitlessly.
The reason why he chose the white snake as his partner was very simple. Providing timely assistance was better than adding flowers to a brocade!
Therefore, Ding Ning didn't hesitate to fly into the air and go straight for the white snake.
"Hiss hiss!"
The white snake stared at Ding Ning with a complicated gaze that seemed sad and mocking at the same time.
It mocked because with Ding Ning's strength, it was impossible for him to protect the Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus. It was sad because it, a great demon, would die in the hands of a little demon.
If it wasn't injured, it wouldn't care about a "little demon" like Ding Ning. However, it was severely injured at the moment and couldn't even use 10% of its strength. Otherwise, it would have killed Ding Ning long ago. How could it let him live until now?
"Don't be nervous. I won't hurt you."
Ding Ning didn't see the mockery in its eyes. Instead, to show his sincerity, he raised his hands and slowly approached.
The mockery in the white snake's eyes became stronger. It thought to itself that this little demon was really cunning. It was afraid that it would fight like a cornered beast, so it pretended to be kind and tried to sneak attack.
"I know you can understand what I said. I really don't have any bad intentions. I'm not drooling over your Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus. I'm here to help you."
Ding Ning took out two jade bottles and threw them to it. With a pained expression, he said, "This bottle is the Destiny Pill that I refined. It can quickly heal your injuries. Two hours is enough for you to recover to your peak state."
The white snake opened the jade bottle containing the Destiny Pill. A strong fragrance came out. Just by smelling it, it felt that its injuries were a little better. It looked at Ding Ning with doubt. It didn't believe that Ding Ning was so kind that he didn't have any ulterior motives to help it.
Ding Ning knew that he had gained its initial trust. He didn't answer its question first. Instead, he continued, "This bottle is the Burst Yuan Pill. It can burst out all your potential and strength in a short period of time to kill the enemy. However, there are some side effects. You will be weak for about half a month before you can recover. However, by then, you will have swallowed the Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus, so the period of weakness will be limited."
The white snake revealed a look of understanding. Its eyes instantly became cold. It spoke for the first time, "I was wondering why a little demon like you would be so kind to have such wishful thinking."
"What wishful thinking?"
Ding Ning was a little confused. Damn, this white snake was actually a female. Although its voice was as cold as ice, it was really nice to hear.
"Humph! Put away your hypocritical face. I knew that the cunning Winged Clan wouldn't be so kind. Don't you think that you can't protect the Nine Tribulations Golden Lotus even if you kill me now? So, you pretend to be kind and help me heal my injuries. Then, I will use the Burst Yuan Pill to help you kill the ninth tribulation demon beast. Then, I will be no threat to you in a weakened state. Then, you can easily kill me and reap the benefits. Am I right? "
The white snake's eyes were full of wisdom. It said in a hateful tone.
Ding Ning blinked his eyes and opened his mouth wide. He was speechless. It seemed that the white snake was right. Why didn't I think of that?
But, what is the Winged Clan? Are there humans with wings in this place? Since the white snake thought that he was a member of the Winged Clan, it meant that his appearance wouldn't be seen as strange by the demon race. This was good news.
Seeing that Ding Ning could not speak for a long time, the White Snake thought that she had seen through his plot. Her eyes became colder and colder, and she shouted, "Get out, don't challenge my patience. If you want to see if I can kill you now that I am injured, I can give you the chance."
"You … You demon, you are really a dog biting the hand that feeds you. I am sincerely helping you … Hey, hey, hey. If you have something to say, we can talk it out. Don't fight, okay?"
Ding Ning almost laughed because of the white snake's arrogance. He was about to explain, but he suddenly found that the snake's vertical pupils were filled with a terrifying aura. He hurriedly waved his hands and retreated. He shouted, "I gave you the Burst Yuan Pill just in case. If you think that I want to use you, you don't have to use it."
In fact, the White Snake was already at the end of its rope, so it couldn't shoot out any more black rays. It was just pretending to drive him away. Seeing his sincere expression, it stopped its attack and sneered, "Do you really think you're that kind?"
"I am not a philanthropist. Do you think the Destiny Pill and the Burst Yuan Pill are cabbages? The herbs needed to make them are very precious. Since I want to help you, of course, I have something to ask of you. I am not after your Ninth Tribulation Golden Lotus. "
Ding Ning hurriedly explained. He was not afraid of the white snake. He just didn't want to miss this deal.
"Then what do you want from me?"
The white snake became even more vigilant. In order to protect the Ninth Tribulation Golden Lotus, its protective treasure was broken. It also used up all the herbs to replenish its demon power. It was poor from head to toe. Except for its body, it had nothing else. Did this guy want its body? Bah! Damn the Winged Clan, they are really shameless.
"I'm coveting … Bah! What do you mean I'm coveting you? I'm making a fair deal with you, okay?"
Ding Ning was very dissatisfied with the word "want". He rolled his eyes and said, "I will help you get the Ninth Tribulation Golden Lotus. You only need to give me something that you don't need …"
"Bah! Don't even think about it! "
The white snake didn't wait for Ding Ning to finish. It angrily interrupted him, "Don't think that I am so … so … shameless and cheap just because I am from the Medusa Clan!"
"Shameless and cheap? What do you mean? "
Ding Ning was completely confused. Didn't it just want a lotus? How did it become shameless and cheap?
