The snake's eyes revealed a murderous light as it stared at Su Xing, causing him to instantly have the urge to retreat.

Su Xing had read about this snake in the books. It was called the Cliff Snake because its skin color was similar to that of rocks. This snake's entire body was as hard as rocks.

As Su Xing looked at the Fountain Lotus that emitted an enticing luster, he instantly returned to his previous state of calmness.

He had finally found a herb with great difficulty, and it was a second grade one at that. How could he give it up so easily?

Su Xing gritted his teeth and began to think of a way to deal with this Cliff Snake.

He used one hand to support himself against the rock wall and jumped off the cliff. Standing at the edge of the cliff, Su Xing looked down and saw that the Cliff Snake had refused to leave for a long time. He lifted up a rock the size of two palms and threw it towards the Cliff Snake.

When the Cliff Snake saw Su Xing smash towards it, it slightly twisted its body and easily dodged the attack.

After dodging the rocks, the Cliff Snake stood up straight.

Su Xing knew that he had already angered this guy. This Cliff Snake was about to attack.

Sure enough, in just an instant, the Cliff Snake bent its body and suddenly shot explosively toward Su Xing.

Su Xing didn't dare to have the slightest bit of negligence. He gripped his sword tightly and thrust it towards the Cliff Snake.

With a "ding" sound, the sword bent into the shape of a crescent moon. Although it blocked the Cliff Snake's attack, it did not harm it at all.

"What a powerful defensive ability," Su Xing sighed. "The name of this Cliff Snake is indeed not for nothing."

When the Cliff Snake saw that Su Xing had blocked its attack, it immediately used its body to wrap around Su Xing's sword. It then flicked its tongue and slid towards Su Xing once again.

Seeing this, Su Xing hurriedly threw away the sword and began to channel the Spiritual Energy within his body. He clenched his fist and a Concourse of the Underworld fist suddenly smashed towards the Cliff Snake's head. The Cliff Snake was sent flying far away and the sword also fell to the ground.

Su Xing didn't dare to waste a second. He once again picked up his sword and muttered, "Sword kinesis."

The sword immediately started to float. Su Xing's Spiritual Energy continued to pour out from his body and into the sword.

"Give me a stab."

Su Xing let out a roar and immediately shot his sword in the direction the Cliff Snake had shot from.

The Cliff Snake felt that its body was too tough and it didn't dodge at all. Instead, it charged straight towards the sword. The sword and the Cliff Snake collided in that instant.

The sword broke, and the Cliff Snake's head was pierced through by the tip of the sword. Blood splattered all over the ground.

The Cliff Snake was killed by Su Xing's full power attack. Su Xing panted heavily as he watched the scene excitedly. At the same time, he secretly thought to himself, This Imperial Sword Technique really does live up to its name. Even though this attack almost exhausted all of my spiritual power, it still managed to forcefully kill the Cliff Snake.

After killing the Cliff Snake, Su Xing quickly ran to the edge of the cliff. As he stared at the alluring and alluring Void Lotus, his heart was set ablaze.

"Haha, I finally have you." With great difficulty, Su Xing managed to obtain the Void Valley Serene Lotus. He lay on the ground, unspeakably satisfied within his exhaustion.

This trip was not in vain.

With the last of his strength, Su Xing used the Spiritual Bead and placed it next to the Spiritual Bead. Then, just like before, the Spiritual Bead instantly sucked the Spiritual Bead into the Spiritual Bead.

While Su Xing was waiting for the Spiritual Bead to refine the pill, danger had appeared again.

The Cliff Snake, which Su Xing thought was dead, suddenly jumped up once again. Taking advantage of the moment Su Xing wasn't paying attention to, it tightly bit onto Su Xing's arm.

"Ah …" Su Xing couldn't help but yell out. He looked at the half-dead Cliff Snake that was coiled around his arm and steeled his heart. He picked up his sword and slashed at the seven inches mark on the snake's body.

The Cliff Snake's body trembled before it gradually lost all its strength. Su Xing abruptly swung his leg and threw the Cliff Snake out.

"This time, I was really careless." Su Xing looked at the bite marks on his arm and quickly ripped a corner of his clothes off before bandaging the wound.

"Looks like I need to hurry back and treat my wounds. Otherwise, it would be terrible once the poison spreads." As Su Xing thought about this, he looked at the Spiritual Bead.

"Why is my speed so slow today?" Su Xing looked at the pearl and thought to himself, 'Wasn't it possible to refine the pill within three breaths of time after inhaling the pill?' Why haven't I seen any pills today?

Su Xing couldn't wait any longer. He decided to put the Spiritual Bead away and wait for his return.

Just as he was about to stand up, a light suddenly flashed from the Spiritual Bead. Then, a sparkling and translucent pill appeared in Su Xing's hand.

"Haha, I've got it." Su Xing was excited for a moment before he stood on the spot and waited for the Spiritual Bead to continue to spit out the pill. However, even after a while, there were still no pills coming out.

Su Xing was puzzled. "What's going on? Previously, a single herb could have refined at least two pills, but why is there only one today? The grade of this Nether Lotus is higher than usual. Could it be that the higher the grade of the herb, the fewer pills it can refine?" That doesn't make any sense at all? "

Su Xing was in disbelief. He picked up the pearl and shook it in his hand. He was hoping that he would be able to shake out two more pills.

However, what Su Xing did not notice at this moment was that at the place where the Cliff Snake had bitten him, a trace of blood flowed out and stuck onto the Spiritual Bead.

A strange phenomenon occurred. Su Xing suddenly felt that the Spiritual Bead was emitting a scorching heat. At that moment, he felt a pain on his hand that was on the verge of being cooked.

Instinctively, Su Xing released his hand and the pearl floated in the air.

Su Xing looked at the Spiritual Bead in astonishment. Suddenly, the light surrounding the Spiritual Bead became brighter and brighter, causing Su Xing to be unable to open his eyes.

However, what was most unexpected was that suddenly, a ball of fire emitting an incomparably rare heat shot out from the Spirit Orb, sweeping towards the direction of the Cliff Snake's fall.

In just an instant, that ball of fire had surrounded the Cliff Snake.

What was going on? As Su Xing looked at the sudden turn of events, he was unable to calm down for a short period of time.

The ball of fire burned for a while before dispersing on its own. Then, Su Xing saw that the spot where the Cliff Snake had previously been, the Cliff Snake's corpse had already disappeared. Replacing it was actually a glowing object lying there quietly.
