C13

At the west entrance of Heart Nurturing Valley.

At this moment, it was noon. The summer was scorching.

From the nearby forest, many Fiery-Scaled Snakes were rushing over, closing in on Xu Zongyi and the rest.

The Flaming Snake's body was covered with fiery runes and its scales were sturdy.

With a height of one zhang, it meant that he had already stepped into the Qi Drawing Realm. He had the strength of two hundred feet, which was far more than the standard of the Superman race.

Those who had not reached the Qi Drawing Realm would have their bones and tendons broken if they were hit by the tail.

However, this was not the most frightening aspect. Its serpentine teeth contained a fire poison within them.

If there was no antidote, once bitten, the fire poison would flow through the blood into the internal organs of the body, causing it to rapidly dry up.

This was the most terrifying aspect of it.

Now that Xu Zongyi's strength was one thousand five hundred kilograms, it was natural that he was out of the ordinary.

"Who's going to give me a weapon that suits my needs." Xu Zongyi rushed to the front of the group and looked in the direction of the dense forest. There were at least a hundred Flaming Scaled Snakes heading in their direction.

Xu Xindie took out a sword and threw it to him, saying: "This is a stupid sword that my ancestor gave me, you take a look."

Xu Zongyi took the sword and discovered that it did not have a single shred of sharpness to it. It was square, more like a ruler, but it weighed five hundred Jin. With his current strength, it just so happened to be in his hands.

Xu Zongyi waved the stupid sword in his hand, and the head of the snake was smashed into a bloody mess, with its blood splattering everywhere. After those Flaming Snakes were killed, they turned into specks of light that merged into Xu Zongyi's valley order.

He was at the front all by himself, and Xiao E's heart almost jumped out of her throat. She felt that he was too reckless.

"Men are the outermost, women are the innermost." In that instant, Xu Zongyi felt like he was a ferocious tiger out of its cage, wanting to stretch his muscles and bones. Every single swing of the foolish sword in his hand was able to smash every Flaming Scaled Snake into a bloody mess.

"Kid, are you trying to steal my limelight?" Xu Zhengdao laughed as his white robe fluttered in the wind. He did not make any superfluous movements.

In his hand was a sharp sword that glowed with a cold light, emitting a frosty aura. His cultivation base was not the least bit higher than Xu Zongyi's as he said, "Flying Frosted Snow Blade."

From his sword, he released close to a hundred streams of cold sword Qi, slicing those Fire Scale Snakes into many pieces. Their bodies froze and they instantly died.

After the sword qi had killed the Flaming Snake, it disappeared into the sky as if it never existed.

"So handsome!" All of a sudden, those female disciples who loved Xu Zhengdao started screaming.

"The correct path is different."

"That Xu Zongyi still wants to act cool? Didn't he know that his movements were as clumsy as a bear's? You have the nerve to come out and make a fool of yourself? " All the girls who loved Xu Zhengdao scoffed.

"Doesn't he understand the difference between a bear and a dragon? The righteous path is my True Dragon Son! "

"…" The corners of Xu Zongyi's mouth twitched, but he had nothing to say. His current strength was incomparable to Xu Zhengdao's, but he had already reached the Qi Jing realm.

Xu Zhengdao waved his sword again. The frost and snow covered the sky, and the snow blades shot out. Nearly a hundred Flaming Snakes were all cut down, and the rain of light gathered on his body, fusing into the valley.

Now that he had not even stepped into the Qi Drawing Realm, he was naturally unable to compete with Xu Zhengdao. He held the foolish sword in his hand and sighed: "There is no place for me to use it."

"Don't worry, this is only the beginning." Xu Zhengdao didn't dare to relax in the slightest. He immediately said, "Clean up the battlefield. These Flaming Snake corpses can be used as fertilizer."

Immediately, quite a few female disciples came forward to take care of the snake corpses. They were very familiar with the road; obviously, they had already come to the Heart Rejuvenation Valley to hone their hearts.

However, before they could finish packing, the surrounding dense forest once again emitted hissing sounds. It was still the Flaming Snake.

But this time, the smallest was around two Zhang, with a strength of five hundred. Even the number was close to a hundred.

"Righteous path, stop acting cool and conserve your strength. I feel that this time, it won't be that simple. The Fire Scale Snakes are very smart, I'm afraid there are stronger existences hiding behind them and letting them consume our strength." Xu Xindie took a step forward. Now that she had stepped into the realm where Qi flowed through her entire body, she held a pair of daggers as thin as a cicada's wing. "The spring wind is like a sword."

The wind was blowing on the ground, carrying with it Xu Xindie's emerald colored clothes. Her long hair fluttered in the wind, like a fairy dancing in the wind, but the daggers seemed to have a cold edge to them.

No one could feel the killing intent at all, but wherever it went, a large area of Fire Scale Snakes broke into pieces, and fresh blood flowed out. Very quickly, the ground under their feet was dyed red with fresh blood, and the bodies that were cut down twisted instinctively.

Some of the snake heads were still able to fly up to bite people, but they were all smashed into pieces by Xu Zongyi. One could see even more specks of light gathering towards Xu Xindie.

The Qi Drawing Realm could channel the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth into the magical equipment within the user's body, and stimulate even more power.

Xu Xindie had a special identity.

The magic tools they possessed were all bestowed upon them by their elders. Naturally, their might was extraordinary.

At the moment, Xu Zongyi could only do a few things to end things.

"Miss Xindie, why are you so close to the Righteous Dao brother in terms of numbers when killing Flaming Snake, why is it that you get more points than him?" Xu Zongyi had many things he didn't understand, so he naturally had to ask more.

A Flaming Scaled Snake at the Qi Drawing Realm can only achieve a little bit of success, while a Flaming Snake at the Qi Drawing Realm can reach five points, while a Qi Drawing Realm can reach ten points, while a Bone Drawing Realm can reach fifty points, and a Qi Piercing Body Realm can reach five hundred!" "Xu Zhengdao was also patient. After all, Xu Zongyi came from a day's work, so it was normal for him not to understand some things.

"What about the Spirit Condensation realm?" Xu Zongyi was a little curious.

"Encountering the Spirit Condensation Realm? "Then let's hurry up and run. It's very difficult for us to be a match for them. Unless they have just entered the Spirit Condensation realm, perhaps we can still fight." Xu Xindie warned him with all her heart. The gap between each stage was not small: "Generally speaking, the Spirit Condensation realm will not appear in our level of training."

"How many accomplishments has the Spirit Condensation realm gained?" Xu Zongyi refused to budge.

"5000 points." Xu Zhengdao laughed loudly on the side.

Xu Zongyi slightly nodded his head as he secretly made his decision. No matter how many achievement points he accumulated, he would see if he could let the Patriarch eliminate the sin words on his face. This time, regardless of the victories or losses of both sides, the ranking was determined by the achievement points.

"You should all take a good rest. I also want to train my muscles and bones." Xu Zongyi still stood at the very front.

"This child." Xiao E was a little worried.

"Sister Xiao E, don't worry, cook in the pot, otherwise my stomach will starve easily later." Xu Zongyi stood in front of him, his folly sword in hand.

He knew that his physique was special and could resist poison, so he was naturally fearless. In addition, there were also five male disciples of Winter Court who were on his side.

Out of the nearly thirty people present, only Xu Zongyi, Xu Zhengdao, and the five male disciples were present. The rest were all female disciples from the four courtyards. Most of them were left behind in admiration of Xu Zhengdao.

The Spring, Summer, and Winter Academies were the majority. The Autumn Battlefield was mostly filled with male disciples, but there was also a female disciple who liked Xu Zhengdao.

Under Xu Xindie's orders, they all quickened their movements and quickly tidied up the battlefield. Most of the snake corpses were destroyed, and were then mixed with the herbs to prevent them from rotting, then they poured all of these things into a piece of grass soil and started to fertilize it, allowing it to absorb them.

"Why are you doing this to the snake corpse?" Xu Zongyi sighed emotionally as he looked at his hands. Indeed, even the female disciples of the Xu family had methods that they were adept in.

The Spirit Gathering Grass is currently growing and transforming. If we can raise it by a level, then the reward will naturally not be small." "One more thing, if we let these snake corpses rot away in such a hot weather, it will attract even more insects. There will be a stench everywhere, and it will be easy for the plague to spread. We need to stay here for seven to four days. Although it is said that our farmhouse's disciples are immune to all diseases, it is still relatively speaking.

"So that's how it is." Xu Zongyi suddenly understood that one's birth was still very important. There were still many things that were lacking in him. In terms of how he handled things, he was far from being comparable to Xu Xindie or Xu Zhengdao.

The place they were at, was one of the entrances to Heart Nurturing Valley.

Behind the entrance was where the farmers grew.

After countless years of growing plants, once they matured, there would be many insects, snakes, worms, mice, and ants, as well as many strange beasts, who would like to absorb the essence within them to strengthen themselves.

Without a doubt, the magical formation activated by Xu Zhiyan was to spread the aura of the Spirit Gathering Grass further, attracting a large number of beasts in the nearby forest.

"Why aren't these Flaming Snake coming?" Xu Zongyi stood guard at the very front, a little doubtful.

"The Fiery-Scaled Serpents are very cunning, they have already died twice. If they can't gauge our strength, I'm afraid they will choose to sneak attack us at night. Everyone needs to let their eyes light up." Xu Zhengdao clearly knew the habits and habits of the Flaming Snake quite well.

It was just as Xu Zhengdao had predicted. Until nightfall, the Flaming Snake never appeared again.

On the other hand, Xiao E had already cooked some rice for everyone. She had always treated Xu Zongyi like a child.

"You little rascal, can you not rush ahead. In terms of strength, do you think you are stronger than Miss Xin Die or the righteous young master? "Then what are you trying to do?" Xiao E scolded him softly from behind because she was truly worried.

"Because of me, more and more of these vicious beasts will appear. I naturally have my own responsibilities, I can't just be a turtle hiding in its shell!" Xu Zongyi understood that Xiao E was worried about him, and immediately chuckled.

"Sigh, you are grown up, but you must learn to hide your strength and build up your strength. Haven't you heard that the tree is in the forest, and the wind will destroy it? I've never liked you to be too forward. " Xiao E had always hoped that Xu Zongyi would hide his true strength and try his best not to overdo it. Charging to the very front meant bearing the greatest risk.

Xu Zongyi nodded his head slightly. He could understand Xiao E's feelings and said with a laugh: "I'm not stupid. If there's really danger to my life, I guarantee that I'll run faster than anyone else!"

"The best would be!" Xiao E rolled her eyes at him and turned to leave.

"Here, light the fire." Xu Zhengdao had asked the five men from Winter Court to gather a lot of firewood and set up ten bonfires.

The Flaming Scaled Snake was not afraid of ordinary flames, but it was able to light up the entrance of the Heart Nurturing Valley as if it was day, making it easier for it to stand guard.

Xu Xindie and Xiao E had also personally set up some traps and sprinkled some powder on them.

"What's that smell?" What's this smell? Xu Zongyi's nose was extremely sensitive and his heart was filled with doubt.

If we only guard against the Flaming Scaled Snake, we definitely won't live past tomorrow. This powder is made from the feces of some of the stronger beasts that have been grinded into powder, and then combined with some medicinal herbs, it will have the effect of intimidating the weak beasts. However, the Flaming Scaled Snake is very cunning, and this kind of deterrence might not have much of an effect. Xu Xindie patiently explained to him.

Xu Zongyi came to a sudden realization and recalled the travels he had witnessed over the years. Indeed, when the seniors of the Xu family lived in the open, they would use this method. Even the senses of the vicious beasts were sharp; when they discovered an existence stronger than themselves, they would not dare to invade their opponent's territory.

At the mouth of the valley that led to the grass planting area, the entire area had been powdered.

The night gradually turned darker.

The sound of insects came one after another from the dense forest.

Two hours later, outside of the powder, there were countless ants gathered outside. However, they all stopped in front of the powder, not daring to take a step forward, but it was enough to make people's scalps go numb. These ants moved extremely fast.

"This is …" Xiao E was also shocked.

"Once a rotten ant is bitten by it, it will quickly fester. This venom will seep into its body and destroy every inch of its flesh." Xu Xindie stood to the side and explained in a serious tone.

"Then how should we deal with these rotten ants?" Xu Zongyi frowned slightly. The rotten ants were all only the size of a pinky nail and weren't as big as the Flaming Snake.

"Pour fire oil." At the same time, Xu Zhengdao gave the order.

The bonfire was filled with a large barrel of oil, making the fire even more intense. However, the bonfire also became more blue, lasting for a long time.

Disciples from the various academies were all holding torches and throwing them directly towards where the group of rotten ants were. The moment these rotten ants touched the fire, they would ignite and quickly spread into the air with sizzling and crackling sounds, exploding like firecrackers.

The oil of fire allowed the torches to continue burning continuously. Soon, a wall of fire was formed. If any strange beasts wanted to launch a sneak attack, they would have to pass through the wall of fire.

"It seems like dealing with this will not be easy. I'll keep watch today. Everyone take a good rest." Xu Zongyi sighed in his heart. There were many aspects where he needed to improve on.

It was no wonder why the children of the various academies hated him so much that day. Today was only the first day. There were still forty-eight days left.

"I'll come exchange for you in four hours." Xu Zhengdao patted Xu Zongyi's shoulder and said, "If there's anything else, warn me immediately."

"Alright!" Xu Zongyi did not dare to have the slightest bit of carelessness as he gripped the folly sword in his hand and concentrated all of his attention.
