Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister-Chapter 684 - 408: One Punch Shatters_3
Then he jumped off the red python, commanding sharply, "Get down here, and shrink to a smaller size!"
The red python let out a mournful cry in its heart.
All this time, it had been the king of this mountain range, when had it ever been so humiliated?
But... its snake eyes looked at the figure below, full of fear.
In a flash, it flew down and... quickly started to shrink in size.
"Why can you use Demonic Power? Other demon beasts can’t!"
The figure looked at the red python, whose half-crushed head had already fully recovered, and asked.
"I don’t know!"
The red python shook its head, "As soon as I became conscious, I could use Spiritual Power. I don’t really know the specifics."
On this point, it was truly not lying.
Upon hearing this, the figure frowned slightly.
"Judging by its demeanor, it doesn’t seem to be lying. Then what’s really going on?"
His gaze turned to the magnolia trees in front of him, and after a long while, his eyes fell back on the red python. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
"Their auras are alike, almost identical!"
This was the only common point he had discovered after observing for so long.
"Forget it, never mind!"
He shook his head, then asked the red python, "Do you want to live or die?"
"Live!"
The red python did not hesitate at all, what kind of question was that?
Who wants to die!
"Then open up your consciousness sea, and I will plant a soul seed in you."
With strength at the Sixth Level of the Dao Realm, and seeing how it’s not far from the Seventh Level, the figure considered taking it under his wing.
If raised well, it might even reach the Eighth Level of the Dao Realm.
When the time comes, placing it in the Ten Thousand People Mountain Range will also ease my elder brother’s worries.
"Soul seed!!!"
The red python jolted and exclaimed in surprise.
"If you don’t want it, then go die!"
The figure said coldly, staring at it with a chilling gaze.
Instantly, the red python felt a cold aura and started to twist uneasily.
In the end, the red python lowered its head in resignation, "Okay!"
The voice was tiny; though unwilling in its heart, it had no choice but to comply in the face of death.
"There you go! Wasting my time."
But the only trouble now was that the Spiritual Power couldn’t be used, so I had to go outside to plant it.
"I’m warning you, behave yourself. After I harvest these magnolia trees, I’ll plant the soul seed in you."
With that, he walked towards the largest magnolia tree, raised his hand, and prepared to cut it down directly.
But.... "Don’t!"
The red python immediately stopped him, but seeing his unfriendly expression, quickly explained, "It’s not the right time yet, the magnolia trees haven’t matured, you won’t get any magnolia wood."
"What do you mean?"
Isn’t magnolia wood just taking the magnolia tree out?
"Magnolia wood refers to the core of the magnolia tree, its heartwood. Only mature magnolia trees will bear heartwood, even if you cut down all these magnolia trees, you won’t get a piece of magnolia wood."
"What? You’re not lying to me, are you?"
The figure stared at it suspiciously.
"No, definitely not!"
The red python quickly replied, at this moment how dare it deceive him, that would be a death wish!
"And how long until they mature?"
"About ten days or so."
Ten days or so! How convenient?
The figure calculated the time in his mind, suggesting that all this was within the Hidden Assassination Leader’s calculations.
Thinking of the Nine Element Battle’s scheduling, it seems they’re waiting for these magnolia trees to mature.
This way... everything can be explained.
"Got it!"
The figure nodded, then walked into the magnolia grove.
The red python followed behind him.
Murran, the figure stopped, extended a hand and placed it on a magnolia tree as thick as a person.
Then closed his eyes to carefully sense it.
Though unable to use Spiritual Power or Spiritual Power, as a master at the Fifth Level of the Dao Realm, he could clearly sense a gentle energy emanating from the half-foot length at the center of the tree.
Is this the heartwood of a magnolia tree?
He slowly raised his head, seeing a tree dozens of meters tall, yet with only half a foot of heartwood.
Seemingly noticing his confusion, the red python explained, "It’s already very hard to nurture heartwood!"
"So you mean... not all magnolia trees have heartwood?"
"Exactly!"
Upon hearing this, the figure began checking each tree one by one.
Out of a hundred or so magnolia trees, only thirty-odd bore heartwood.
The longest being less than a foot.
Meaning he could only obtain thirty-odd pieces of magnolia wood!
"I wonder if it’s enough?"
The figure muttered to himself, "Or perhaps..."
At this moment, he squinted his eyes slightly.
"Rob!"
This might be the safest method, with several days remaining, there’s still a bit of time.
Only issue is not knowing how to reach other realms in the Nine Elements Secret Realm.
Then he turned to the red python, "Do you know about other realms?"
"I do!"
"Do you plan to go?"
The red python asked.
"Where’s the passage?"
"Once all the magnolia trees mature, and you gather all the heartwood, a passage to other realms will appear. But which realm exactly, is unknown."
The red python explained.
"Is that so?"
Upon hearing this, the figure felt a bit of an odd sensation.
"Could it be that the Hidden Assassination Leader arranged it this way?"
It’s too coincidental.
The only explanation can be just that.
"Never mind, I’ll know then."
The figure shook his head, then sat down on the ground, ordering the red python, "Go, fetch me some demon beasts, I’m hungry!"
With it here, there was no need to hunt personally.
Having not rested well for days, he might as well take this time to recuperate.
"Alright! But I can’t leave this area beyond ten thousand meters!"
The red python explained.
"Okay!"
The figure nodded, that was actually better.
Then the red python turned into a red light and left.
"The stronger the better!"
The figure shouted after it.
"Got it!"
Hearing its response, a grin spread across the figure’s face, as he leaned against a magnolia tree, "Having a little brother is nice!"
