Chapter 37 The Moonlight Cup

After taking out the drone from his backpack and maneuvering it into the air, Zhang Ji began to search for the location of the cave.

Before this, he had looked at the satellite map and was very sure that the location was here, but he was not sure whether there was a cave here.

After all, he was playing a later version of the game.

Soon, the drone presented a bird's-eye view to Zhang Ji.

He matched each of them to some of the things he experienced while playing the game.

Many things are different from those in the game, especially the lushness of the trees. Many of the big trees here definitely do not exist in Zhang Ji’s memory.

Not long after, Zhang Ji found a small canyon beside the waterfall, with only a small stream flowing slowly out of it and a slightly narrow entrance outside.

"Moonlight Valley, found it!"

Moonlight Valley is exactly its name on the map in the game.

Zhang Ji put away the drone, put on his backpack and quickly rushed to the corresponding location.

In less than five minutes, he arrived at the entrance of Moonlight Valley.

It looks narrow from the drone's perspective, but in fact, there is enough space for at least one truck to pass through.

It was already dark at this time. Zhang Ji turned on the lighting equipment and then walked inside.

He walked a little more cautiously.

After all, we are exploring this unknown place.

To be honest, if he didn't think it was difficult to explain and might cause more trouble, he would think it would be better to use the power of the Five Elements Sect to help get the things.

However, even if it was just another sect, Zhang Ji still didn’t quite trust it.

With so many people in a sect, can they all be of one mind?

What if someone among them was blinded by greed and kept the things, they would never reach Zhang Ji’s hands in the end.

Then Zhang Ji will really have a headache.

So if you can do important things yourself, try to do them yourself and don’t delegate them to others.

Zhang Ji was walking in the valley, and could only hear the gurgling sound of flowing water. As he continued to move forward along the stream, he felt as if he was going in circles.

"Maze? I don't remember there is a maze here!" Zhang Ji frowned.

He took out the navigator from his backpack and looked at his walking route.

“It’s not a detour, it’s a spiral.”

Zhang Ji seemed to understand something and then continued to move forward.

I don’t know how long I walked, but when Zhang Ji took out his cell phone and looked at the time, it was already 11 o’clock in the evening.

He was almost thinking of backing out.

At this moment, Zhang Ji vaguely saw a beam of light in front of him.

He quickened his pace and walked quickly towards the beam of light.

Soon, he saw the source of the light.

At this time, Zhang Ji was already below Lake Gerst.

The moonlight shone through the clear lake, gathered into a beam, focused on a large natural crystal, and finally condensed on a stone platform.

To be precise, it was in a wine glass on the stone platform.

The wine glass was only the size of a baby's fist and was embedded in a groove on the stone platform. It was golden all over and had exquisite patterns carved on the surface. A blue gem was embedded on each side. When the moonlight shone on the blue gem, drops of liquid that shone with a faint glow automatically accumulated in the middle of the wine glass.

That liquid is the essence of the moon.

A full cup can directly restore half of the health and full energy bar even for a C-level fighter.

Zhang Ji suppressed his excitement and looked around, but did not see any strange beast guarding here.

He guessed that the other party was probably out looking for food.

This is reality, not a game. Even a strange beast needs to eat. It is impossible for it to wait at the treasure point all day for players to challenge it.

Zhang Ji stepped forward quickly, jumped onto the three-meter-high stone platform, and reached out to grab the wine glass.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of wind.

"I knew it!"

Zhang Ji turned around and punched out.

“Bang! Boom!”

After a loud bang, it was Zhang Ji who flew out.

But under the stone platform, under the moonlight, there was a huge purple-black centipede that was more than six meters long. Its jaws were as thick as ox horns. Three people combined were not as big as it.

Zhang Ji was hit by it and flew directly against the wall of the cave, breaking a lot of rocks.

However, Zhang Ji was in good health.

Instead, there was a collapsed fist mark between the centipede's eyebrows, and some strange liquid seeped out of it.

The giant centipede lowered its head, stretched out a tentacle-like tongue, and began to lick the moon essence in the wine glass. Almost at the moment of drinking it, one could see that the centipede's injuries were being relieved.

Of course Zhang Ji would not just watch it recover.

Throwing down his backpack, Zhang Ji used all his strength to exert his internal energy, and a crackling sound was heard from inside his body.

The spring accumulates force to the extreme and suddenly explodes.

"Boom~!"

"Boom~!"

The big centipede was hit by Zhang Ji who suddenly rushed out, and its body deviated from the stone platform and flew backwards.

"Did I tell you to drink it? You took it! Don't you know it's mine now?" Zhang Ji stood on the stone platform, stretched his muscles, waved to the big centipede and said, "Come here, let me see how strong you are!"

"Hisssssss~!"

The giant centipede raised half of its body and issued a warning and anger to Zhang Ji!
"Whoosh~!"

With its thousand legs moving, the centipede suddenly rushed out and clamped its big jaws towards Zhang Ji.

Zhang Ji practiced the breathing method, and a metallic light shone from his body. Under the moonlight, he looked like an iron man.

Zhang Ji lowered his head slightly to avoid the bite and raised his palm to push.

"Bang~!"

His palms seemed to be hitting heavy steel, only slightly knocking the alien centipede aside.

The overall strength of this centipede is indeed only D+, but in terms of defense and strength, it is definitely very close to C level.

Zhang Ji slapped the opponent's upper body away, and at the same time, the centipede's lower body also swept over.

"Bang~!"

Zhang Ji took the blow with his shoulder and his body involuntarily moved back a distance. The custom-made hiking boots on his feet rubbed against the stone platform, leaving a mark.

"That's awesome! This is the first time I've heard that a centipede can wiggle its tail!"

Zhang Ji complained, a buzzing sound resounded throughout his body, and he rushed out again.

The centipede also climbed up the wall of the cave and leaped towards Zhang Ji.

In an instant, the two sides met.

The next moment, Zhang Ji knocked its head off with a punch, grabbed one of its limbs under its body, and exerted force suddenly.

"Stab~!"

The strange liquid and flesh were torn off.

This guy only looks big in size, but when facing a master-level expert, he is still far from enough.

"Hisssssss~!"

The centipede screamed in pain. Zhang Ji took advantage of the situation and kicked it in the abdomen, leaving a dent.

The centipede was obviously scared at this time and turned around to escape.

"Want to escape!"

Zhang Ji simply grabbed its tail and pulled it hard.

“Bang! Boom!”

Zhang Ji caught the centipede and threw it against the wall of the cave, knocking off a lot of rubble.

Feeling the pain, it turned around and bit Zhang Ji directly.

Zhang Ji stretched out his hands and pinched one side of its jaw with both palms.

The horn-like jaws were strong enough to break steel, but facing Zhang Ji's arms, it could not close at all.

“Ga ga ga~!”

Zhang Ji's muscles made a sound, like the sound of a spring being squeezed.

"Om~!"

After accumulating enough strength, Zhang Ji released the control of his muscles and released all the strength in his arms.

“Crack! Sizzle!”

The centipede's jaws were torn apart directly, and a lot of flesh and blood on both sides were torn apart.

After feeling the pain, it curled up its body and rolled on the ground, looking extremely disgusting.

Zhang Ji walked forward, aimed at the joint of his neck, and stomped hard.

"Click~!"

With one kick, its shell broke, disgusting liquid spilled out, and its nerves were severed, and its movements instantly slowed down a lot.

However, these liquids only look disgusting and are not harmful in themselves. On the contrary, they are beneficial.

In fact, this centipede is non-venomous.

It has been swallowing the essence of the moon and has mutated long ago. It is no longer an ordinary poisonous insect.

A lot of moon essence energy is stored in its body. Roasting it and eating it can restore a lot of health and energy.

Of course, this is the situation in the game, and Zhang Ji is not clear about the reality.

He planned to take the wine glass, then go back and take some centipede meat out to study it before considering whether to eat it or not.

Zhang Ji walked to the wine glass, and this time no one stopped him.

He took the wine glass and twisted it gently. Soon the cup base came out of the groove. He pulled it lightly and took the cup out.

There was still half a cup of moon essence in the cup. Zhang Ji sniffed it and found no smell.

After thinking about it, Zhang Ji just took a sip.

"Eh~!"

A cool and stimulating feeling went straight into the spinal cord along the throat, and then spread to the head, making Zhang Ji shiver involuntarily.

But what comes with it is a feeling of excitement throughout the body.

A feeling of returning to fullness.

It is somewhat similar to the Essence Pill, but its effect is stronger and even seems to have the effect of restoring spirits.

"Good baby!" Zhang Ji said with a happy expression.

Then Zhang Ji drank it all in one gulp.

The essence of the moon can only be contained in this wine glass; it will dissipate if poured out.

So Zhang Ji could only drink it all and couldn't take it away.

After drinking half a cup of Moon Essence, Zhang Ji felt that his condition had been replenished to perfection, even a little overflowing.

He put the wine glass close to his body and was thinking about where to get the meat from the centipede when suddenly his ears moved and he heard the sound of water hitting the water.

Getting bigger and more exaggerated.

He looked into the depths of the cave with a puzzled look.

The next moment, Zhang Ji realized that something was wrong.

He stopped thinking about the centipede and quickly picked up his backpack and ran back the way he came.

However, his running speed was obviously not as fast as that of the water.

"Boom, boom, boom~!"

The violent water flow hit the cave wall, making a loud noise.

Zhang Ji's expression was filled with horror.

There is absolutely no such part in the game.

Getting drowned just by taking a wine glass?

Zhang Ji ran faster and faster, but he still couldn't outrun the oncoming water.

In just a moment, the long-accumulated impact of the water flow fell on Zhang Ji, pushing him directly to the side of the cave wall.

Then the water swept back and pushed Zhang Ji to the other side.

Zhang Ji couldn't find any leverage point and could only be pushed to the sides and collided with rapidly. In this situation, he even had difficulty breathing.

If it weren't for his strong horizontal training skills, he would have been dead by now.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Zhang Ji was slapped against the cave wall, and occasionally collided with protruding rocks. He could only protect his head to avoid serious injuries.

He was already feeling pain all over his body, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to breathe. The cave wall was narrow, and he was completely submerged in the water. He couldn't even stick his head out to breathe.

"If this continues, I will surely die!" Zhang Ji said in his heart.

He felt that he was a little lacking in caution this time and trusted the information in the game too much.

Did he become arrogant after achieving the Grandmaster level?
But who could have imagined that after it became a reality, there would be such a trap behind the wine glass?
Calming down, Zhang Ji began to think about how to break the deadlock. The next moment, he let go of his body's resistance and went with the flow.

"Om~!"

The body hit the wall of the cave, like a bouncy ball, and bounced back directly along with the force, rushing out with the water flow.

"Not hurt! I can do it!"

Zhang Ji was delighted and continued to use the technique of overlapping waves.

"Buzz~! Buzz~! Buzz~!"

Gradually, Zhang Ji felt as if he had merged into the water flow and become a part of it.

Suddenly, a picture appeared in his mind.

That is the view of the waterfall rushing down.

It was the visualization picture of the [Flowing Water School] fighting technique called [Waterfall].

Zhang Ji felt that he had realized it!
The next moment, the water around him began to flow rapidly downwards, carrying him according to his will.

About ten minutes later, Zhang Ji was washed out from a valley.

A current swept him up and brought him to the shore.

Zhang Ji was lying on the ground. He first felt his pocket and found the wine glass was still there.

Then he was happy, the joy of getting the treasure and escaping from a desperate situation surged out uncontrollably.

“Hahahaha~! I really am a genius!!!”
