Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points Chapter 565: 557 Rescue

Chapter 565: Chapter 557 Rescue

In this barren land of mountains, there were only two dangers: one was the evil branches that could burst out from the ground at any mont, and the other was the small black snakes with double horns on their heads.

These small snakes were protected by scales harder than steel and had an extrely strong leaping ability, making them agile in movent.

But the most terrifying was their venom.

Qin Niu, with his understanding of various snake and insect venoms, knew that the venom of these small snakes was even more powerful than that of ordinary poisonous insects by more than a hundredfold. A single bite from one, and the usual Detoxification Pills would hardly be effective.

As he was running, he faintly heard another human’s scream.

It seed to co from a slightly rearward position to the right.

Nine tis out of ten, soone else had fallen victim to poison.

Qin Niu didn’t have many hobbies, but he most enjoyed profiting from the dead.

The evil plants and double-horned poisonous snakes in this area could not threaten his life; naturally, he wanted to take a look.

If he could save soone, that would be for the best. But if the person was unfortunate enough to have died, he could still make use of their belongings and collect so windfall wealth.

Before long, he arrived at the location of the screams.

There was no need to search; from afar, he could see a figure lying on the ground, wrapped up by a multitude of evil plants like a rice dumpling.

On the person’s body was a faint multicolored aura, indicating that they had successfully refined so Immortal Qi.

Anyone who could successfully refine Immortal Qi within the Second Immortal Gate was an exceptional individual.

Through the sensing of Qi, Qin Niu inferred that the individual ensnared must be of Immortal Master cultivation.

Although bound by nurous evil plants, the person had not been killed. His clothes were puffed out, and a dull yellow aura was protecting him from within. However, if no one ca to his rescue, he would likely face a grim fate.

Qin Niu didn’t rashly attempt a rescue; he was never the sort to play the good Samaritan.

The man’s allegiance, enemy or friend, was unclear; needless to say, he wouldn’t save him without reason.

“Fellow Daoist, save !”

The other party took the initiative to call out for help.

It appeared to be an older male elder by the voice, suggesting he was not particularly tall. At most, he might be around one ter fifty.

Qin Niu’s mind quickly raced through the appearances of over a hundred strong individuals who had braved the third challenge.

He didn’t recall any of them being as short as this elder.

As he was pondering the elder’s identity, the situation turned more perilous. The protective aura around the elder had been broken through.

If he didn’t act swiftly, the elder would be drained to a husk by the evil plants in just an instant.

Decisively, Qin Niu swung his Ink Blade at the branches wrapped around the elder.

The Ink Blade alone could only sever the branches, but could hardly save the elder; it was essential to utilize the fiery energy of the Fire Lotus.

Under Qin Niu’s control, flas instantly enveloped the blade.

The Ink Blade beca a Fire Blade, easily driving away the evil branches from the elder’s body and rescuing him.

The elder who had regained his freedom stood up with a carp flip, then his bones made a “crackling” sound as he swiftly grew taller. In an instant, he had transford into a formidable old man.

To resist the attack of the evil branches, the elder had employed a unique talent to significantly shrink his body.

This ability seed very similar to the legendary Bone Shrinking Skill.

“So, it’s you!”

Qin Niu recognized the elder in an instant; it was none other than the elder who had perched a purple marten on his shoulder when he first refined the Immortal Qi.

He had an especially deep impression of the elder at that mont.

Because the elder had stood by watching the entire ti without making a move, his composure was terrifying.

“Thank you, young friend, for your rescue. This old man is nad Xu Qiao, known as Elder Xu. Seeing the flas you just wielded, could it be that you are a Huoyun Cave Cultivator?”

“Qin is not a Huoyun Cave Cultivator,”

Qin Niu shook his head in denial.

However, he did not reveal his own origins, feeling very cautious toward the elder.

“That’s right, the fla aura that the young friend emitted is indeed different from that of a Huoyun Cave Cultivator. This old man cos from the Myriad Beast Gang, and should you visit the Myriad Beast Gang in the future, please honor my ho with your presence. I must treat you well to repay your life-saving grace today.”

Having learned that Qin Niu was not a Huoyun Cave Cultivator, the old man then disclosed his own background.

When traveling outside, everyone carries a sense of vigilance.

If you’re not careful, you probably won’t survive three days.

“So Elder Xu is a cultivator from the Myriad Beast Gang! My apologies for any disrespect! I see a black aura enveloping your face; have you been poisoned?”

Once Qin Niu learned that the old man was a cultivator from the Myriad Beast Gang, his goodwill imdiately surged.

It’s undeniable that when he passed through the Myriad Beast Gang, they had treated him with great hospitality, which left him feeling fondly toward all the cultivators from the gang.

“Ah, don’t ntion it. When I barged in here, I encountered a massive attack by evil branches. If it were just the attack from the evil plants, this old man could have managed to defend against it. But at that mont, seven or eight small snakes with horns on their heads erged, and they along with the evil plants surrounded and attacked .

Ultimately, my little Zi decided to protect and got bitten by a silver-horned snake.”

I managed to kill those little snakes using so of my ultimate techniques, but that silver-horned snake was extrely powerful and escaped while injured.

Unexpectedly, that silver-horned snake’s venom was terrifying. I beca poisoned while extracting the venom from little Zi.

Eventually, my strength waned, and I was tied up tight by the evil plants.”

While speaking, the elder kept a vigilant watch on the ground, guarding against the evil plants that could spring up and attack at any mont.

“I see! Qin passed through the treasured domain of the Myriad Beast Gang and received so care. Consider this as returning a favor by helping you detoxify.”

After hearing the full story, Qin Niu decided to create another bond of goodwill.

But the elder shook his head, “The young friend has extraordinary strength, but little does he know how formidable the venom of the silver-horned snake is. I’ve taken a variety of detoxification pills and have only just managed to suppress the venom. Your kind intention to detoxify might just end up harming you instead.”

The elder too was one to rember kindness.

Qin Niu had saved his life, and now he was worried about Qin Niu being hurt by the snake venom, rejecting the idea of Qin Niu helping him to detoxify.

“There’s no need for concern, Elder Xu. I know my limits,”

Qin Niu said with a confident smile.

“Please sit cross-legged, Elder Xu, and relax.”

The elder complied, though he remained anxious about the evil plants that could burst forth from the earth at any mont.

Strangely enough, standing there, Qin Niu seed to deter any evil plants within a ten-ter radius from daring to harm anyone.

They appeared to be very sentient, showing extre fear of Qin Niu after witnessing his prowess.

Qin Niu placed one hand on the elder’s head.

And in just a short while, the black aura on the elder’s face had vanished, and he felt indescribably relieved.

“It’s done!”

Qin Niu stated simply.

The elder stood up, incredulously examining his own body and stretching his limbs.

“This is truly unbelievable. Your abilities are extraordinary, and I am in awe. Thank you for helping once again.”

Elder Xu looked at Qin Niu as if he were looking at a god with limitless power.

At this mont, he truly understood that there were always greater skies beyond the one you see, and more profound people beyond oneself.

Qin Niu was not only capable of subduing evil plants but could also easily dispel the terrible snake venom.
