Digging up spiritual roots and seizing blood? You scumbags, wait and tremble.

In the evening, they came to a dark bamboo forest. They could vaguely see the road outside, but they could not see anything inside.

"This is a snake forest with many snakes. Let's rest outside for one night and then go through the bamboo forest tomorrow."

It would be even more dangerous to cross the bamboo forest late at night. Although they were not afraid, there was no need to travel overnight.

At night, some ferocious beasts come out to look for food.

After sitting down, Ah Sheng took out the food and wanted to share it with everyone.

This time, everyone took a piece and ate it slowly, and he took out a large piece to eat.

"Sister, when will there be monsters?"

Mu Jinning said softly, "It will happen tonight."

"Really? That's great. I'm going to kill monsters tonight."

Zhong Yan laughed and said, "Keep your voice down. You're so loud that you've scared the monsters away."

"Oh." He said "oh" softly and stopped talking. While eating, his eyes looked around from time to time, and his ears pricked up, listening very attentively.

Zhong Ran felt like laughing when he saw his expression, but when he thought that he was just like that, he didn't laugh.

After eating, they leaned against each other to rest, but Ah Sheng was the only one who lay directly on the ground.

Ordinary snakes, rats, insects, ants, etc. dare not approach him.

The sky was completely dark, and rustling sounds were slowly heard all around.

Several people opened their eyes at the same time, but Ah Sheng continued to sleep, snoring loudly.

"Logically, snakes shouldn't come outside." Mu Jinning's voice was very soft: "Unless something happened that forced them to come out."

His spiritual consciousness probed into the bamboo forest, but found nothing.

"This bamboo forest actually blocks spiritual consciousness. There must be a formation inside."

"There are people not far ahead. The snake should be heading for those people."

Zhong Ran discovered that there was also a group of people resting about a few miles away from them. They were closer to the bamboo forest, but not in the same direction as them.

Mu Jinning also leaned over there and felt something was wrong.

"They seem to be specifically designed to lure snakes?"

Those people did not rest, and each of them looked in the direction of the bamboo forest with full vigilance.

There was a faint medicinal smell emanating from them, which was the magic medicine to attract snakes.

But there is common snake repellent on the ground around.

"Could it be that there is a snake king in here?"

Why would you lure out an ordinary snake? Unless it's a king snake or some other special snake.

The three of them stopped talking, but kept paying close attention to the situation over there.

After waiting for a while, I sensed that many snakes were crawling out of the bamboo forest, but they were kept outside by the snake repellent and did not dare to approach.

There were more and more snakes, and some were even moving towards them.

Zhong Ran also quickly took out the snake repellent and sprinkled it around, and the snakes dared not come over again.

Those people were staring at the bamboo forest nervously and didn't pay attention to the movement here.

Time passed minute by minute, and they were still just ordinary snakes, nothing special.

A woman's voice echoed faintly from the crowd over there: "We've been guarding here for two nights, and the Jade Snail Python hasn't appeared. Could it be that this is all fake?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Someone has seen it come out at night. I guess it's asleep?"

"How about we go in and look for it tomorrow? We'll have to go out in two days, otherwise we'll all die when the beast tide comes."

The man stopped talking and continued to pay attention to the movements in the bamboo forest.

Zhong Ran whispered, "I heard the Jade Snail Python is already a peak-level fourth-tier demonic beast. It's famous for its jade-colored scales. I also heard its gallbladder can cure a cold poison."

"Do these people want the snake gallbladder for themselves, or is it for the mission?"

Mu Jinning also sent a message: "It's more likely to be for the mission."

"In the map Lin Qianqian gave me, this snake forest was specifically marked in red, signifying danger. Could it be because of that Jade Snail Python?"

"There should be more than one Biluo Python, but there must be other dangers, otherwise those people would not have specifically marked it red."

The maps that can be handed over to the Qinglong Chamber of Commerce are all places that have been verified by countless cultivators, proving that the dangers within are places that most cultivators consider dangerous.

A peak fourth-order python wouldn't be like that.

"Rest. I don't think anything will happen tonight."

Mu Jinning's big hand gently stroked her cheek, and her breathing became slightly tight.

Zhong Ran nodded slightly, leaned on his shoulder and closed his eyes, but his spiritual consciousness was still paying attention to that side from time to time.

As Mu Jinning expected, those people waited for a whole night but still did not see what they wanted.

As soon as daybreak came, the snakes retreated back into the bamboo forest and everything became quiet outside again.

A group of twelve people walked towards Zhong Ran and the others.

Obviously, they also discovered their side.

"Don't worry about it, let's go straight into the bamboo forest."

Zhong Yan didn't even look over there and walked into the bamboo forest first.

He seemed to be afraid of nothing, and there was nothing for him to be afraid of.

Yes, he has the Devouring Divine Body as a backup. Even if it is a powerful Divine Transformation Master, he can scare away the person, let alone some snakes.

A Sheng also followed with big strides, Yun Tianyu walked in the middle, and Zhong Ran and Mu Jinning followed behind.

As soon as those people came over, Zhong Ran and others were no longer there.

"Humph, they are really brave and fearless. Just a few of them dare to go in."

One of them snorted coldly, expressing his displeasure at the fact that Mu Jinning and the other four had entered the bamboo forest without waiting for them to come over.

"It's obvious they just came from outside. They obviously don't know the horrors of the Snake Forest."

"Come on, let's go in and take a look, otherwise I'm afraid we'll have to give up this mission."

The twelve people in the group also followed in. Most of them were at the Golden Core stage, with two at the Nascent Soul stage, and three at the peak of the Golden Core stage. They exuded an extremely powerful aura.

Zhong Yan walked forward. Snakes appeared from the trees around him from time to time, but they just appeared and did not attack him.

Most of these were low-level snakes, and he was too lazy to take action.

Ah Sheng would occasionally reach out and pat the bamboo a few times, shaking off several snakes.

Yun Tianyu's scalp tingled: "Asheng, stop taking random photos."

Ah Sheng finally calmed down, but he was tall and sometimes he could touch the bamboo and shake off the two snakes.

"It's worthy of being called the Snake Forest. There are too many snakes in here."

Zhong Ran felt a little numb on her scalp after seeing so much. Women are naturally psychologically traumatized by creatures like snakes.

He turned to look at her, stretched out his long arms, and held her in his arms.

"Don't look at them, it's okay."

Zhong Ran looked at the three people in front of her, and seeing that none of them turned around to look at her, she felt relieved, but she still glared at him lightly.

The five people walked and stopped, and after about two hours, they still had not walked out of the bamboo forest.

The sound of fighting came from behind, and at the same time, there seemed to be a rustling sound in the entire bamboo forest.

The five people were startled at the same time, looked around, and found that the snakes were swarming towards the position behind them.
