Chapter 109 - 109 Restraint
109 Restraint
Su Cheng was so angry that he laughed. He said coldly, “Just with your thin arms and legs? Hehe!”
In the quiet forest, only Su Cheng’s cold laughter could be heard. Su Cheng used his tail to roll Dong Xi up and brought her to his eyes.
The cold vertical pupils looked into Dong Xi’s eyes. Dong Xi could clearly see the big snake’s mouth slightly raised. Su Cheng said jokingly, “Isn’t my body more suitable for doing bad things?”
Dong Xi, “…”
“Big snake, restrain yourself, your tongue is about to lick my face!” Dong Xi said.
Su Cheng’s recovered from his instinct when he heard Dong Xi say this, and he held back.
Then, he flicked his tail and threw Dong Xi on the ground.
Dong Xi sat up and looked at the snake, who did not change in the slightest but was obviously unhappy. She immediately said, “What was that flower just now?”
Dong Xi did not know that snake had only plucked the flower off to make her happy. It was human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and snakes were the same.
“Andromeda,” Su Cheng said lightly.
When Dong Xi heard this name, she was stunned. She seemed to have seen this name before in a book.
Andromeda, highly toxic, releases poisonous gas to kill living things.
However, the book did not mention that Andromeda had such great power. What was wrong? Could it be because of that formation?
“Is it a formation?” Dong Xi raised her head and asked.
Hearing Dong Xi’s question, Su Cheng looked up at Dong Xi and lightly said, “Looks like you have a good eye.”
Dong Xi was a little dissatisfied. She turned her head, indicating that she did not want to pay attention to the big snake.
Su Cheng did not care and continued, “This should be raised by someone else. The formation is also an illusionary formation with the effect of gathering spiritual energy. No matter if it’s a human or a demon beast, as long as they enter, they will uncontrollably walk towards the lake and eventually become the nourishment of this flower.”
Su Cheng took out the flower again. He did not throw it directly to Dong Xi, but picked a few petals and threw them over.
Dong Xi looked at such a huge flower, but there were only two petals in her hand. She was a little stunned. She carefully recalled the books she had read before and was even more stunned.
The Andromeda was a highly toxic plant, and it had miraculous effects when used to refine demon tools or puppets.
However, Dong Xi was a Righteous cultivator. It was impossible for her to learn these unorthodox ways. What was the use of these petals?
“It’s pretty, but I’m a cultivator of the Righteous Path, so I don’t need it, do I?” said Dong Xi. “Are you suggesting I just use it to soak my feet?”
Su Cheng sneered and said coldly, “Oh, a Righteous Path cultivator who carries my inner core?”
Dong Xi’s expression suddenly became a little tense, and he retorted forcefully, “I’m Righteous! Nothing but Righteous! Just you wait! I’ll destroy your inner core sooner or later!”
Su Cheng was disdainful of this statement. Dong Xi looked at Su Cheng’s appearance and seemed to remember something. She immediately asked, “Why are you in the Secret Realm? Didn’t they say that Foundation Establishment cultivators and above can’t enter?”
Su Cheng frowned and said coldly, “Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask.”
Dong Xi looked at Su Cheng curiously for a long time. Then, she suddenly had an idea. She stared at Su Cheng and said, “You can’t be ….”
Hearing Dong Xi’s words, Su Cheng immediately panicked.
However, in the next moment, Dong Xi blinked her eyes and asked, “Is it because you don’t have an inner core, so your cultivation level dropped? Now you’re in the Qi Refinement stage like me?”
Su Cheng was confused.
His originally nervous mood instantly relaxed, and he did not say anything. He only glanced at Dong Xi with an unknown meaning.
Dong Xi blinked, not quite understanding. What was with the snake’s eyes? Could it be that she had guessed correctly, so he was feeling guilty?
If the big snake was only at the Qi Refinement stage, why was Dong Xi still unable to defeat it?
Dong Xi carefully thought back to the books she had read in the library. Demon beasts could not cultivate before they took human form, and only had innate skills. They relied on their physical bodies to fight.
Dong Xi suddenly understood, and the body cultivation mentioned in the ‘Feasibility of a Loser’s Counterattack’ appeared in her mind.
As expected! The ancients did not lie to me!
If Dong Xi could also have such a physical body, wouldn’t she be able to fight with the great snake?
Su Cheng looked at Dong Xi’s constantly changing expression and did not know what this girl was thinking.
Su Cheng looked at the dark sky and said coldly, “This petal can repair my inner core. Once it’s repaired, it won’t stay in your Dantian.”
When Dong Xi heard this, she said in surprise, “Alright!”
Su Cheng saw that Dong Xi was about to eat the petal and could not help but ask, “Have you forgotten that you are an alchemist? You can concoct pills, right?”
