Not long after, Sun Zhenzi saw off the old man and turned back.

Li Dao and Sun Zhenzi tied the horses to a bush and walked into the valley.

After taking a few steps, the miasma became denser and the visibility decreased.

The ground was littered with dead branches, rotting leaves, and rotten weeds.

Such a harsh environment was indeed suitable for venomous snakes and venomous bugs to live in.

After walking forward for a few minutes, the first Bodhisattva appeared.

It was a snake as thick as an infant's arm. It was about two meters long, unlike an ordinary snake that had an inverted triangular head. It was oval in shape and had a protruding tumour on the top of its head. Gold and gray scales covered his body.

When the snake saw that Li Dao and Sun Zhenzi didn't run, they rushed towards them. Their brown eyes were filled with malice.

Generally speaking, snakes were afraid of humans, but this one was really fierce and took the initiative to attack the two of them.

Li Dao was a little surprised. The tumor on the snake's head was somewhat strange. It seemed to be a horn. Fortunately, this was a low-grade martial world. If it were a high-grade immortal martial world, this snake could be considered a dragon. There was definitely a thin dragon bloodline in his body, and the tumour on his head and the golden scales on his body were the best proof.

Seeing the snake charge towards the two of them, Sun Zhen took a step forward, instantly taking out his shiny sabre and shouted, "You dare to call yourself a beast?"

The saber light was like a waterfall as it beheaded the snake.

The snake fell to the ground, writhing. Li Dao was not surprised by this. Many of the snake-type animals could move their bodies after their heads were chopped off. They would not die immediately.

On the other hand, Sun Zhenzi's martial arts progress was very fast. The snake moved like the wind and was as fast as lightning. He could actually cut off the snake's head with a single slash. This showed how hard he had been cultivating.

"Gongzi, why are we looking for this snake?"

After killing the snake, Sun Zhenzi retracted his blade and asked Li Dao.

Li Dao didn't directly answer him. He walked up to the snake and picked out a green snake gall from seven inches away from the snake's body with his sword.

"Do you know that the essence of a snake's entire body is concentrated in its gallbladder? The older a snake's gallbladder, the more effective it is, especially a venomous snake."

As Li Dao said this, he swallowed the snake gall, causing Sun Zhenzi to be dumbstruck. How could he swallow such a disgusting snake gall when he thought about what a noble figure his young master was?

He wanted to vomit when he saw this. He didn't dare to swallow them alive anyway.

After swallowing the snake gall, Li Dao sat down cross-legged and ignored the mud on the ground.

"Protect me." After saying this, Li Dao closed his eyes.

After swallowing the snake gall, Li Dao could clearly feel a warm current rising up from his Dantian. The essence of the snake gall turned into boundless energy. It was many times better than the great tonics that he had taken.

The Blue Lotus Sword Qi continued to refine the essence of the snake gall, and the stream sized inner force began to slowly expand.

A quarter of an hour later, Li Dao stood up and smacked his lips. A fishy and bitter stench was still spreading from his mouth. He didn't mind. At this moment, he felt refreshed and full of energy.

A single snake gall had given him endless benefits. Not only had he strengthened his true energy, but it had also strengthened his strength.

If he took another three or five snake gall, Li Dao felt that he could break through to level five precelestial immediately.

No wonder Yang Zhao had stayed in the valley for half a month. After he left, his martial arts did not slow down, but instead increased. His inner strength had overpowered the martial arts world.

This snake gall was definitely the biggest factor, but the Darksteel Heavy Sword wasn't that important. Within half a month, Yang Zhao wouldn't be able to directly comprehend the heavy sword's concept. After leaving, he would most likely rely on inner strength to suppress others.
