Chapter 194: Breaking the Poison
Chapter 194: Breaking the Poison
When Feng Huan saw the venom falling straight down from above his head, he temporarily gave up his resistance against the esophagus and slid directly down along the mucus and into the stomach of the snake.
For a big snake, the stomach does not occupy a large part of the body, but for Feng Huan, it is like a big pool. The reason why it is called a pool is that there is a large amount of gastric juice in the stomach, and it is highly corrosive. When Feng Huan fell, he could feel the gastric juice corroding his body's protective essence, making a "hissing" sound.
In this environment, Feng Huan immediately launched an air flash, wanting to switch out directly through a different space, just like the last time when he was chased by the ancestor of the Lu family and accidentally entered a certain space.
However, to his disappointment, due to the effect of the golden shadow, the air flash almost completely lost its effect, and he could only barely flash within a very small range, and it was impossible to flash out of the snake. This was because he had spent a lot of time studying the application of the void power since he was imprisoned last time, otherwise he would not be able to move at all.
"No matter how powerful a skill is, it is not absolutely invincible. Without sufficient strength to support it, it is just like a dragon swimming and diving and being played by shrimps. Moreover, all kinds of elements in the world are interdependent and mutually restraining. No one force can absolutely suppress any other force." Feng Huan suddenly had an epiphany. "It may be possible that water gives birth to all things, but it is unlikely that water can restrain all things."
Although he had gained a lot of insights in the dangerous situation, he could not solve the urgent problem at present. The gastric juice was constantly corroding, and the poison also flowed into the gastric juice in large quantities, increasing the corrosiveness. At the same time, the toxins were also trying to penetrate Feng Huan's body through the body-protecting true essence. The stomach wall was also constantly peristaltic, generating a strong squeezing and shaking force. He tried to digest Feng Huan in a short time by taking multiple measures.
Feng Huan thrust the Autumn Water Sword at the stomach wall under his feet. Although the Autumn Water Sword was not damaged, it did not cause any damage to the snake. He also tried to attack with different elemental powers, but none of them worked.
"It seems that the golden dragon phantom has given it too much power. With my current strength, I can't possibly cause it any harm. Do I have to hold out until this state disappears? But I don't know how long this state can last, and how long I can resist!"
Unexpectedly, the life-and-death battle between the two turned into a battle of endurance.
Since there was no other way, Feng Huan stopped struggling and remained calm, using the least possible effort to maintain the protective true energy outside his body from being destroyed.
As the amount of gastric juice increased, most of Feng Huan's body was immersed in it, with only the part above the sternum exposed.
Time has no joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness, and has no seven emotions and six desires. It will not stop for anyone, will not stagnate because of your happiness, and will not stay because of your death.
The mixture of gastric juice and venom has completely submerged Feng Huan. He can no longer breathe normally and can only turn to internal breathing, converting his true energy into what the body needs. This in turn aggravates the consumption of his true energy.
It was at that moment when he was submerged and his breathing turned into internal breathing that Feng Huan suddenly remembered the feeling of breathing freely in the water for the first time. At that time, he was still participating in the organization's grand review and had just mastered the power of the elements.
"Why didn't I think of that! Whether it's gastric juice or venom, their essence is water, it's just that water contains other elements." Feng Huan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he began to try to penetrate his water-attributed true essence into the gastric juice and feel the power of the water in it.
Although this comprehension consumed a lot of his true energy, it was not in vain. Under Feng Huan's control, part of the turbid gastric juice gradually gathered into a darker liquid, while the vast majority became clearer and clearer.
Finally, the gastric juice became completely pure, and the toxins and acid components turned into some small crystals, which were gathered together by Feng Huan and thrown into the sand space.
The power of water changed, and the snake's stomach turned into an icy lake. Feng Huan stood on the ice and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally I have escaped. Now I want to see how long your golden body can last." Feng Huan sat on the ice, took out the Qingyuan Stone and began to recover his true essence. Although there was still new gastric juice and venom that did not stay in the stomach, it did not have much impact and could be cleared away with a wave of his hand.
Half an hour later, Feng Huan felt that the vibration of the stomach had obviously weakened and the venom stopped flowing in.
“He probably can’t hold on any longer!” Feng Huan opened his eyes and swung his sword with all his strength.
"puff!"
The stomach wall instantly cracked open with a long cut, and warm blood spilled all over the ice. Feng Huan was so polite that he used the Water Creation Art to refine the blood and increase his blood power. This was an ancient strong man who came from nowhere. Although he was being controlled by him now, it was only because he was suppressed by the branch of the Autumn Water Sword. His blood power was definitely very strong, which could be seen from the mighty golden dragon shadow.
In contrast to Feng Huan's joy, the snake was in great pain. Its left eye was injured, and it used all its strength to release its trump card in a rage, which consumed a lot of energy. It was already at the end of its strength. Unexpectedly, Feng Huan struck back inside its body and refined its blood.
However, it was powerless and could only roll its huge body continuously to relieve the pain and make its final struggle.
Feng Huan was busy refining the blood in the snake's stomach, and occasionally slashed it with his sword to allow the blood to flow continuously.
Half a day later, the snake finally stopped moving and lay on the ground motionless, dying. Feng Huan also felt that his blood had reached a saturated stage and could not be refined or improved for the time being.
The power of ice has reached minus ninety-nine degrees and cannot be increased any further. Minus one hundred degrees should be a threshold, and more power and perception need to be accumulated before it can be successfully broken through. The power of the void has also been significantly improved, and now the distance of a void flash can be about fifty feet. Feng Huan sighed that the blood power of this big snake must be extraordinary, otherwise it would not be possible to bring such a big improvement.
"Hey, big long insect, are you dead?" Feng Huan sensed that the big snake seemed to be motionless, so he shouted tentatively.
"It seems that Bu Si has no strength left!" Seeing that the big snake did not react, Feng Huan thought, "This guy still has so much blood in his body that has not been refined. What a pity, it is better to release it and store it in the sand space for later use."
"There's not much blood left here now, let's go to the heart and find its blood crystal." Thinking of this, Feng Huan used his spiritual sense to sense the location of the snake's heart, and then used his sword to clear the way, messing up the snake's internal organs. However, the snake was now powerless and could only twitch occasionally symbolically.
"Wow, such a big heart, it's worthy of being an ancient beast, the blood here should be enough for a while!" Feng Huan smacked his lips in excitement as he looked at the heart that was twice as tall as himself. There was also a golden blood crystal the size of a human head in the heart, which made Feng Huan drool.
Without saying a word, Feng Huan first cleared a space around him, cut out the heart, sealed it with a thick layer of ice, and then placed it in the sand space.
"I have cut out his heart, so he should be dead!" Feng Huan was satisfied and prepared to go out to break the formation and get the sword.
“No, ferocious beasts of this level should have condensed a divine body, right? As long as the divine body is not dead, it cannot be considered truly dead.” Feng Huan suddenly remembered the old man who passed on the Transformation Sutra to him in the Yin family’s ancestral land.
"We should go and have a look just to be on the safe side. We can't leave any trouble behind!" Thinking of this, Feng Huan chopped down the wood all the way and headed straight for the snake's head. It would be easier to move forward from the snake's body. If he left, he might not be able to break through its hard skin.
"The big long worm really has a divine body. Hehe, you didn't expect that, did you?" A miniature giant snake, half the size of a human, was curled up in the ventricle.
"Don't kill me, I can help you!"
Feng Huan raised his sword and was about to kill the big snake completely, when the big snake's weak voice shouted hurriedly.
"If I don't kill you, what's the point of keeping you alive? Waiting for your revenge? I'm not that stupid." Feng Huan was not forgiving, but he didn't take any further action.
"Now I only have this divine body left, and it is still very weak. It is almost impossible for me to recover. I just don't want to be annihilated like this." Seeing Feng Huan stop, the big snake explained, "My original body is a golden python, and at that time I should have been one of the most talented in the tribe. I had a great chance to awaken the bloodline of my ancestor, the five-clawed golden dragon, and thus evolve into a golden dragon."
"It's a pity that I encountered the Great Destruction Period and was captured here by that damn woman, which is why I have degenerated into my current state."
