Chapter 049 Ruthless Robbery
"You brat, stop right now!" Seeing Lin Fei's hand reaching for the Immortal Spirit Grass, the White Snake's eyes instantly turned bloodshot as it roared, "Immortal Spirit Grass! My Immortal Spirit Grass!"
Lin Fei was only at the Body Tempering Realm, but he possessed a Thousand Hammer Treasure, which meant he must have a remarkable status within the Jade Emperor Sect, and the White Snake was quite wary of him.
Demons like them only survived because of their low cultivation level and lack of evil deeds, thus avoiding imprisonment in the Demon-Subduing Tower. How could they dare to harm a disciple of high status within the Jade Emperor Sect?
However, seeing Lin Fei's hand already reaching for the Immortal Spirit Grass, the White Snake's apprehension had been thrown to the back of her mind.
The reason it risked being killed by the Jade Emperor Sect disciples to stay in this deep valley was for this one Immortal Spirit Grass. Now, seeing the Immortal Spirit Grass being picked, all the White Snake's reason vanished instantly, and it pounced on Lin Fei like a madman.
The moment Lin Fei touched the Immortal Spirit Grass, he felt a chill run through his body, as if his entire arm was about to be frozen off by its cold energy. He hurriedly circulated his internal energy to counteract this bone-chilling cold.
"You're courting death!" Seeing the white snake lunging at him, Lin Fei flicked his longsword, showing no mercy: "Heart-Cultivating Sword!"
With a flash of sword light, the white snake was instantly enveloped in Lin Fei's sword light.
"Immortal, Immortal Spirit Grass!" The white snake's eyes were glazed over, as if it could see countless Immortal Spirit Grass right in front of it, and it was lying in the pile of Immortal Spirit Grass. The countless Immortal Spirit Grass made its cultivation soar, successfully transforming it into a dragon, and then into a dragon, ruling the entire demon realm and restoring the prosperous state of the demon palace in the ancient times.
The power of the Mind-Cultivating Sword lies in its ability to subtly trap the enemy in their own illusion. This illusion is not one created by Lin Fei, but rather the object's deepest, most genuine desire, making it irresistible to both humans and demons.
The white snake was trapped in a hallucination, and its movements became extremely sluggish. Lin Fei only needed one sword strike to cut a large gash in its body, and a large amount of blood gushed out from the white snake's body.
The intense pain in her body pulled the white snake from her beautiful illusion. By the time she came to her senses, she was already severely injured by Lin Fei. Lin Fei, on the other hand, had already fallen back onto the shore.
"What kind of martial art is this?" The White Snake was completely stunned, unable to believe that such an incredible martial art existed in the world.
"It seems this guy really hasn't done anything evil. It looks like killing it won't bring any reward!" Lin Fei landed back on the ground and waited for a while, but still didn't hear the system notification. So he gave up on the idea of killing the white snake completely.
"Heavens! Master actually passed on the 'Feather Robe Sword Stance' to you!" Senior Sister Minglan, who knew its value, ran up and exclaimed in surprise, "This is Master's most treasured skill, no less than his famous technique 'Taiyi Salvation Heavenly Venerable Order'. I begged Master for a long time, but he refused to teach it to me. He actually passed it on to you!"
Lin Fei naturally knew that the reason Yuan Yi passed on the Feather Robe Sword Technique to him instead of Ming Lan was not out of favoritism. It was simply because, given Ming Lan's personality, he was afraid that before he could even successfully cultivate it, he would fall into an illusion from which he could not extricate himself.
The Feather Robe Sword Technique, though powerful, is fraught with danger that only the practitioner truly knows.
Seeing Minglan's lack of interest, Lin Fei quickly changed the subject and presented the immortal herb in his hand: "Senior Sister, I have not failed you. I have finally obtained this herb."
Upon seeing the Immortal Spirit Grass, Ming Lan immediately forgot all about the Feathered Robe Sword Technique. She snatched the Immortal Spirit Grass from Lin Fei's hand and carefully stroked it, exclaiming, "This bone-chilling cold is indeed the Immortal Spirit Grass! Excellent! With this, I can finally successfully refine my 'Blazing Flame Pill'!"
The Immortal Spirit Grass is naturally icy cold. Even Lin Fei needed to use his inner energy to resist its chill when he held it in his hand, while Ming Lan's lips turned white from the cold, and her body even trembled slightly. However, she seemed not to feel the cold at all, and her face was full of excitement.
"Alright, Senior Sister, let's put it away first! It's getting late, let's hurry back!" Lin Fei saw that Ming Lan looked infatuated and was afraid that the cold of the Immortal Spirit Grass would damage her meridians, so he quickly reminded her.
"Junior brother is right." Minglan took out a jade box and carefully put away the immortal herb. "Let's go back now, and I'll refine the pill tonight!"
At this moment, the white snake emerged from the icy pool, its blood staining most of the pool red. It slumped its head weakly on the bank, whispering, "Immortal Spirit Grass, my Immortal Spirit Grass!"
Minglan glanced at the dying white snake: "Junior brother, what should we do with this guy?"
"Forget it, let it be!" Lin Fei replied. "Anyway, it hasn't done anything wrong. We've already obtained the Immortal Spirit Grass, so there's no need to harm it anymore."
Minglan nodded, thought for a moment, took out a pill, walked to the shore, and threw it in front of the white snake: "You let me go last time, and I'm not an unreasonable person. This immortal herb is indeed of great use to me. Here's a pill for you. It can not only heal your injuries, but also improve your cultivation. We're even now."
After leaving the pills behind, the two prepared to leave and return to Jianxing Peak. It was already late; the sun was about to set, and if they delayed any longer, it would soon be dark. And nighttime was precisely when the demonic beasts in the deep valley were most active.
Just then, applause suddenly rang out, and several Jade Emperor Sect disciples dressed in white robes emerged from behind a large tree in the distance: "Wonderful, wonderful! Junior Sister Minglan, I never thought you would actually capture such a difficult white snake!"
The group of people, with smiles on their faces, blocked Lin Fei and his companion's path.
Behind this place lies the icy pool where the white snake resides, and the only way out is through a single path. At this moment, several people are blocking the path, clearly not intending to let Lin Fei and his companion leave. Their ill intentions are immediately apparent.
It seems these guys had been following them to the edge of the cold pool for a while. Lin Fei and Ming Lan hadn't activated their hearing abilities and couldn't detect footsteps that were too far away, which is why these guys had followed them without them noticing.
They lay in ambush in the distance, only revealing themselves when Lin Fei and his group successfully obtained the Immortal Spirit Grass and were about to leave.
The leading male Taoist priest chuckled, "Junior Sister Minglan, as you probably know, I've also wanted this Immortal Spirit Herb for a long time. Junior Sister, you'd better be sensible and hand it over. Otherwise, it will damage the harmony between us fellow disciples!"
It seems that if we don't hand over the Immortal Spirit Grass, these guys will try to take it by force.
