Chapter 018 Changes
whoosh!
With a sound of breaking through the air, a strange snake with a golden glow suddenly jumped up from the streamside and shot towards Wen Caiting like an arrow.
Wen Caiting was depressed, but she still cheered up, reached out with her bare hands, firmly grasped the strange snake, and pinched it to death with her slender fingers. Then she used her fingernails like daggers to cut open the snake and take out its gallbladder.
Ni Kun stood by with his hands behind his back the whole time, watching until Wen Caiting took out the snake gall and presented it to him. He then nodded slightly and said:
"good."
He took the snake gall, put it directly into his mouth and swallowed it whole.
If you swallow it whole, you don't have to taste the extremely fishy and bitter taste of bile, and it is easier to swallow.
It's just that the effect will be a little slower and not as immediate as Wen Caiting's.
But Ni Kun was not in a hurry.
After swallowing the snake gall, I waited for a moment, and finally felt a warm current rising from my stomach, spreading rapidly, and in a blink of an eye it spread to every part of my limbs.
He tried to circulate his internal energy, but found that the extremely weak internal energy of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Power did not increase at all.
I just felt a little more relaxed and my strength seemed to have increased a little.
He clenched his five fingers into a fist, released them, clenched his fist again, and released them again. After repeating this process for a while, Ni Kun frowned and muttered to himself:
“My strength has indeed increased, but the effect is far less than I expected, and my internal strength has not increased at all.
"That shouldn't be the case. I just felt a strong heat flow...
“No matter how bad my appearance is, the gallbladder of this Bosuqu snake can directly increase my power and strength, and it has nothing to do with my appearance!
"Wen Caiting's skills and strength are so high that she can increase them a little bit. And with my current foundation, shouldn't my skills and strength increase dramatically?
"Could it be that my bones and bones are so poor that they are extremely poor?
"Not only is it very difficult to cultivate myself, but the efficiency of absorbing the effects of natural treasures is also extremely low?"
Although he had some doubts about his "digestion and absorption" ability, Ni Kun was not discouraged.
Maybe if I just eat a little more, the effect will appear?
He then waved his hand and ordered Wen Caiting to continue ahead, upstream to hunt the strange snake.
Bosu snakes are extremely aggressive and will actively attack you even if you are not a threat to them and pass by from a distance.
This saved Wen Caiting the trouble of searching.
They went deep into the valley and within a mile of walking, they captured more than ten strange snakes that attacked them actively. They opened up their stomachs and took out their gallbladders, which they presented to Ni Kun.
Ni Kun accepted all the food and ate them all. Every snake gall he swallowed would turn into a warm current that spread from his stomach and flushed his whole body.
The feeling is very strong, but the effect is extremely weak.
After eating more than ten snake gallbladders, warm currents flowed through his body one after another, but his internal strength did not improve at all, and his strength only increased by a few dozen pounds. The effect was far less than that of cultivating a level of Dragon Elephant Prajna.
Even after eating more than ten snake gallbladders, even though he swallowed them whole, there was still an extremely fishy and bitter taste rushing up from his throat and flowing into Ni Kun's mouth and nose, making him feel uncomfortable and want to vomit.
He immediately called Wen Caiting:
"That's all for today. Find a place to rest for the night and continue tomorrow."
Even though I only gained a few dozen pounds of strength, it’s still some achievement after all, isn’t it?
If you make up your mind to eat more than a hundred snake gallbladders, it will increase your strength by several hundred pounds, which will be extremely beneficial when you are walking in the chaotic world.
After a night's rest, we continued upstream the next day, going deep into the valley and hunting strange snakes along the way.
By nightfall, more than thirty Pusiqu snakes had been killed, and Ni Kun swallowed all the snake gallbladders alive.
But after eating so many snake gallbladders, the effect was still far from what I expected. Not only did my internal strength not increase at all, but my strength also increased less and less. The strength increased by more than 30 snake gallbladders was only about the same as the more than 10 snake gallbladders I ate yesterday, which only increased my strength by a few dozen kilograms.
After the last few snake gallbladders entered his stomach that day, Ni Kun even felt that he had hardly gained any strength, as if the effect had reached its peak.
"Has the snake gall reached its limit? Has it developed drug resistance? I'll try again tomorrow. If it doesn't work... well, I'll just have to give up."
Ni Kun was in a bad mood. Seeing that it was getting dark, he asked Wen Caiting to prepare food and accommodation.
Wen Caiting found a flat open space in the woods beside the stream, cleared away the thorns and weeds, found some dead branches to make a fire, and then went to the stream to catch fish and shrimp.
After catching the fish and shrimp, he cleaned them, put them on sticks, smeared them with salt and spices, and roasted them over the fire. He then took out a few breadcrumbs from the dry food bag and roasted them. When the fish and shrimp were cooked and the breadcrumbs were fragrant, he served them to Ni Kun.
Wen Caiting started eating only after Ni Kun had eaten and drunk his fill.
Ni Kun went to the stream to wash up. After Wen Caiting finished eating, he put out the fire, moved away the firewood, and cleaned up the charcoal ash.
At this time, the ground has been dried and hardened, without a single weed. Spread a thick blanket, light a bonfire next to it, crush a few mosquito repellent pills and sprinkle them around, and you can sleep comfortably.
Of course it was Ni Kun who was comfortable. Wen Caiting could only sit with her legs stretched out and use her thighs as a pillow for Ni Kun.
Before I knew it, it was already late at night.
Wen Caiting moved her true energy and practiced for a while. She opened her eyes and glanced at Ni Kun. Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, she couldn't help but have evil thoughts in her heart. She raised her hand and quietly reached towards Ni Kun's neck.
There are no good people in the Yingui Sect, and all the core members are cruel and ruthless.
An elder-level witch like Wen Caiting is evil to the core.
Don't be fooled by the fact that she has been obedient to Ni Kun these two days and seems to be extremely well-behaved and submissive, but this is just a temporary measure for the evil woman. She has been thinking about how to fight back and get rid of Ni Kun's slavery every day.
However, when Ni Kun suppressed her, the intimidation he created was so great that Wen Caiting only dared to think about it in her heart and did not dare to show it on her face.
Even at this moment, Ni Kun was sleeping soundly and looked defenseless, as if she could break his neck with just one hand.
But her expression kept changing, and she pretended to reach out towards Ni Kun's neck several times, but in the end she just sighed silently and took her hand back.
There is no doubt that she was scared.
As a seductive woman who specialized in charm and magic, she was not like Zhu Yuyan and her disciple Kankan, who practiced the "Secret of the Heavenly Demon". They were martial artists and did not have the courage to risk everything.
Assassinating Ni Kun was just a thought.
After silently watching Ni Kun's face, which flickered in the light of the fire, Wen Caiting gritted her teeth inwardly:
"You hateful little devil, you should at least let me sleep with you once! I can brag about having slept with the Sword Immortal in the future. But you are unwilling to give me even the slightest bit of sweetness, and just order me around... You are really hateful!"
Just when he was feeling angry, he suddenly saw a crack quietly appearing on Ni Kun's face.
Then the cracks spread in all directions, continuing to grow, and soon expanded into criss-crossing, fine cracks like a spider web, covering Ni Kun's entire face.
It even spread into his neck and never entered his clothes.
In the blink of an eye, Ni Kun's exposed face, neck, and even hands were covered with dense spider-web-like cracks, looking like a piece of porcelain that had been broken and then pieced together.
This strange situation made Wen Caiting feel horrified and she almost screamed out loud.
"What happened? Did he go into a trance and his body broke apart? Is this little devil going to die?"
Just when Wen Caiting didn't know whether to be surprised or horrified, the edge of the crack suddenly lifted up by itself, and a small piece of skin peeled off.
Next, more dry and flakes of skin peeled off from Ni Kun's face, neck, and hands.
After the broken skin fell off, the intact new skin was revealed. It looked as delicate and smooth as a baby's, and sparkled with a healthy and rosy luster under the firelight.
"this!"
Seeing Ni Kun's transformation, Wen Caiting was stunned for a moment:
“This…this is actually shedding an old layer of skin and growing a new layer of smoother and whiter skin?
"Is the little devil a snake demon? Or is it the snake gallbladder that did the trick?"
Ni Kun already had a good-looking appearance, and now with a new layer of skin, he naturally looked even more fresh and handsome. Wen Caiting's heart was beating wildly and her whole body was hot when she saw him. She wanted to pounce on him immediately and eat him heartily.
If he wasn't afraid of Ni Kun's rage, he would have knocked him down and executed him on the spot.
