Chapter 69: Ice Jade Dragon Snake

  Although LuLu didn't make it clear, Huang Yu still listened to her and chose the third path.

  As soon as he stepped onto the third road, Huang Yu felt that his entire body was about to be frozen stiff, a terrifying chill that pierced straight to his heart.

  "What a terrible place, the yin energy is so heavy, have we arrived in hell?" Huang Yu cursed as he walked.

  "Don't complain, master. You'll see the benefits of this place later." Lulu said with a slight smile, seeing Huang Yu grumbling.

  "What's the benefit? Lu Lu, don't play dumb with me anymore," Huang Yu said.

  Since Rourou said so, she must not be deceiving herself. In this regard, Huang Yu still has confidence. However, what Huang Yu is curious about is that this road, what's good about Dingxi? Is it a landmine? Didn't Rourou say before that getting a landmine isn't an easy thing to do? So what exactly is here?

  The more it was like this, the more Huang Yu wanted to know.

  "Don't worry, master, you'll know soon enough. But be careful here, there are some small animals." Lulu said with a smile.

  "Small animal." Huang Yu naturally knew what the so-called small animal in Lu Lu's mouth was, that is, a mysterious beast. As for what kind of mysterious beast it was, he would have to wait until he saw it to know, but judging from Lu Lu's expression, this mysterious beast was probably not very powerful and wouldn't pose a threat to his life, yet it also wasn't easy to deal with.

  It's just a small animal, what's there to be afraid of? Now I'm at least a mid-stage expert in the Human Infant Realm, and I can be considered a master. What's there to fear? It's so suffocating.

  Thinking about it, Huang Yu's courage also grew, and as a result, the chilling feeling had weakened a lot.

  Whoosh.

  Whoosh.

  Whoosh.

  Suddenly three ice arrows shot towards Huang Yu's face.

  "Damn it, what thing dares to launch a sneak attack on me." Huang Yu's long sword swung out, blocking three ice arrows, his heart filled with indignation. Daring to launch a sneak attack on himself, he was really fed up with this life.

  As I looked up, I found that in front of me there were several long white snakes as white as snow. They looked like white jade carvings, like a string of white jade dragons. If they were a bit bigger and had horns on their heads and feet on their bellies, they would be real dragons.

  "Lulu, what is this thing?" Huang Yu asked, "Is it the small animal you mentioned?"

  "Hmm. Be careful, master, this is an Ice Jade Dragon Snake, its strength is very powerful, equivalent to the early stage of Yuanshen Realm, extremely strong. Although you have the Purple Extreme Sword in hand and can suppress them, if you're careless, you might capsize in a ditch." Lulu said with a chuckle.

  "What is this mysterious beast, the Ice Jade Dragon Snake? Does it have any weaknesses?" Huang Yu looked at the creature spitting snake-like tendrils, his brow furrowed in concern. The brief clash earlier had made him realize that these creatures were not easy to deal with. As a cultivator in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm, he was confident in a one-on-one battle, but the current situation was different - there were six of them, all at the same level as him. If they were to gang up on him, his only option would be to flee. Therefore, finding their weaknesses was crucial; otherwise, taking down these six Ice Jade Dragon Snakes would be unrealistic, extremely unrealistic.

  "The Ice Jade Dragon Snake has weaknesses, and more than one."

  "There's a weakness, that's good, that's good." Huang Yu heard this and his face showed a relaxed expression. As long as there's a weakness, it's easy to deal with. If there wasn't one, that would be troublesome. "What is the weakness?"

  "Seven inches, as the saying goes, 'hit the snake at seven inches', this ice jade dragon snake is no exception. One of its weaknesses is indeed the seven-inch point, but naturally, the ice jade dragon snake is aware of this. Therefore, when attacking, it will always protect its own seven-inch point well. Moreover, the speed of this ice jade dragon snake is astonishing, and it's generally very difficult to hit its seven-inch point."

  "Seven inches won't do, so what's another weakness? What is it?" Since this weakness isn't very useful, the target can only be placed on the next weakness. If this weakness is also the same and there's no difference, then a new path must be found, another method must be thought of.

  Hot.

  "What?"

  "The Ice Jade Dragon Snake has a weakness, which is fear of heat."

  Afraid of heat?

  "Yes, master. When the temperature exceeds fifty degrees, the Ice Jade Dragon Snake's combat strength will drop sharply, to less than twenty percent." Lulu said, "So, the Ice Jade Dragon Snake is usually found in extremely cold places or extremely dark places, and never goes to high-temperature areas."

  "I'm afraid of the heat." Huang Yu's eyebrows slightly furrowed, wanting to raise the temperature here wasn't an easy task. The place was filled with yin energy, and the estimated temperature was already around minus twenty or thirty degrees Celsius. Moreover, there was nothing flammable around. If only there were things like petroleum, he could use them to set the place on fire. Of course, if there were explosives, that would work too.

  But the question is how can I get it myself.

  The system should have an exchange function for this type of thing.

  "Rourou, help me find something that can instantly raise the temperature here." Huang Yu said.

  As long as the price isn't too outrageous, I can afford it myself. After all, I'm not short of money now. When I left, Gu Tian gave me 10,000 mid-grade spirit stones. As for that thing, as long as it's within 1,000 spirit stones, I can accept it. What are spirit stones used for if not for moments like this?

  "It's there, it just depends on whether the master is willing to give it up or not." Lulu said with a smile.

  "What is it?" Huang Yu's face lit up with joy upon hearing this and said, "Don't keep us in suspense anymore."

  If I can kill these six ice jade dragon snakes, I will be able to level up. My current level has reached a critical point and has been stuck at 13 for a long time. Although my cultivation has improved significantly and I have reached the human infant realm, my blood volume seems to be too low, only 400 points, which is seriously lacking in blood. My cultivation has improved, but my level hasn't been able to improve, it looks mismatched.

  Moreover, in order for oneself to truly become powerful, levels are also indispensable.

  It seems that if one's own level is not improved, then later on, their cultivation will also have no way to improve.

  "Thunderbolt Fireball."

  "Thunderbolt Fireball, this name seems quite domineering." Huang Yu had heard of this name many times before, but he knew that the Thunderbolt Fireball was probably a one-time consumable item with considerable power. However, its price would likely not be cheap either. "What's the effect? And what about the price?"

  "If the master exchanges ten of them, then these few ice jade dragon snakes in front of us are nothing and can be easily eliminated."

  "How many spirit stones does the Thunderfire Bomb need?" Since it's so powerful, I'll just get some. It's probably like a hand grenade or something. If the price isn't too high, I'll buy a bunch and use them to blast anyone who gets in my way later on.

  "One Thunderfire Bomb and one hundred fifty mid-grade Spirit Stones."

  "Hiss..."

  Huang Yu's eyes widened, this...this is too expensive, pit, it's simply a huge pit. Although he had a lot of spirit stones, he couldn't afford to splurge like this. Ten Thunderfire Bombs were equivalent to 1,500 mid-grade spirit stones, and he only had a total of 10,000 mid-grade spirit stones. He had previously thought that he was quite wealthy, but it turned out to be the opposite.

  "Can't it be cheaper?"

  "No, this is already the cheapest. However, don't worry, master, to collect these six ice jade dragon snakes, you won't need ten Thunderfire Bombs, just three will be enough."

  "That's three pieces then." Upon hearing that only three were needed to achieve the goal, Huang Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief. If he really had to take out 1,500 mid-grade spirit stones all at once, it wouldn't be strange if he didn't feel the pinch.

  "It can't be done, master."

  Lulu's words made Huang Yu pause, "What do you mean it won't work? Isn't there a way? I'm not out of spirit stones yet."

  "Don't get excited, master. It's like this, the Thunderfire Bombs are not sold individually. The minimum purchase is ten at a time, which is one box. These Thunderfire Bombs come in boxes of ten and won't be sold separately," said LuLu.

  "This is a disaster for Hong Guo, not just a loss. Why not bundle sales? Bundle other things for sale too! Huang Yu was furious, one box is ten pieces, that means, no matter what, if you want to buy Thunderbolt, you have to spend 1,500 mid-grade spirit stones."

  What can be done, what else can be done, just buy it and consider it as inventory. The remaining Thunderfire missiles can still be used by ourselves, and there are many uses for them.

  "Master, are you going to exchange it or not?"

  Exchange.

  "How many boxes?"

  "Of course it's just one box, do you think I'm that wealthy?" Huang Yu said in a bad mood.

  "The master now has 10,000 mid-grade spirit stones, ten boxes or eight boxes are still okay." Lulu said with a smile.

  "Ten boxes, isn't that one thousand five hundred spirit stones per box?"

  "If the master really wants to exchange ten boxes, Lulu can give the master the biggest discount. Even if it's a million mid-grade spirit stones."

  “……”

  Although it can be done, Huang Yucai is unwilling to do so. This thing will not work once it's gone, and the Thunderfire Bomb, although its power is not bad, is still too weak. Once his own strength increases, he won't need to use it anymore. Against people with high cultivation, it doesn't have much use, so there's no need for too many.

  Moreover, even if the Thunderfire Bomb is very powerful, it's still an external object. Relying too heavily on external objects will ultimately lead to no good results. To become a top-notch strongman of one generation, one must use these external objects sparingly. Once you get used to using these powerful external objects and lose them, that's equivalent to being on a dead-end road.

  The most reliable thing is one's own cultivation, so instead of exchanging for many powerful things, it's better to cultivate well and make one's strength stronger, this is the most practical.
