Several monks who were awakened by the shrill screams jumped away and looked at the scene in horror and shock.
They watched as the bloody little snake crawled into his neck and then drilled into his body. His face gradually turned from pale to dark purple. The blood that had been oozing out changed color, and the color of his lips also gradually turned dark purple. His eyes were wide open in horror, and one hand was still tightly clenched into a fist against his neck. The next moment, his body twitched violently, and poisonous blood oozed out of his seven orifices. He fell down stiffly, and died after a few twitches.
This scene happened right before their eyes, and so quickly that none of them could react before they saw that he had died.
"hiss!"
Several monks gasped, and no one stepped forward. They just watched cautiously, until they saw the little snake crawl out from the heart of the dead monk after a while. Their faces couldn't help but turn pale.
"call out!"
The older monk raised his sword and swung it down, and a stream of sword energy cut the poisonous snake into two pieces as it came out and tried to escape. Looking at the two pieces of the snake jumping on the ground, they felt a chill in their hearts.
The small snake, which was only the size of a chopstick, scurried into the man's body and came out again after a while. Its body had grown larger. Why did it become so large in an instant? Anyone would know that it must have eaten the internal organs of the dead disciple.
In the dark, Feng Jiu watched this scene, her brows knitted slightly, and a solemn expression flashed across her face. She didn't expect that a seemingly insignificant disciple could have such ability, which was really shocking.
Her eyes couldn't help but fall on the man who was retreating with a look of fear on his face. She hadn't expected that this man was so good at pretending. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed that this was his doing.
"Senior Brother Lin, what kind of snake is that? Why is it so terrifying?" a cultivator asked with a trembling voice. The person who was still alive beside them the last moment was dead in just a short while, and died in such a horrible and terrifying way, which really frightened them.
The elder monk looked solemnly at the venomous snake that was broken into two pieces on the ground and said, "I have never seen this kind of snake before. However, from this incident, it seems that this snake is extremely poisonous and bloodthirsty."
His face darkened slightly, and he paused for a moment before saying, "The appearance of this poisonous snake in our sect's territory is not a good thing. I have to report the matter to my superiors as soon as I return, and ask the disciples who are guarding the gate and traveling to be careful."
After listening to his words, several people nodded, cleaned up, and sprinkled medicine powder around to prevent the appearance of poisonous snakes. As for the dead monk, several people just looked at him with regret and disposed of his body.
Perhaps because such a thing happened so late in the night, they did not go back to sleep and just sat by the fire, thinking about their own things.
In the dark, Fengjiu's eyes fell on the man named Ruan. She stared at him, not knowing what she was thinking.
Until the next morning, the few of them continued to move forward, and Fengjiu still followed behind. Perhaps it was because they were gradually entering the territory of the hidden sect. Every time they walked a distance, she felt that there were many traps around.
