Chapter 391: A Body Full of Treasures

One of the snakes suddenly reared its body, leaping forward with a fierce thrust. It flicked its head, and the snake's tongue shot out, unexpectedly extending fourteen or fifteen feet, striking a martial sect expert. In an instant, it coiled around him and, with another flick of its head, the expert let out a terrified scream as his feet lifted off the ground, soaring away like he was riding on clouds!

He fell straight into the snake's mouth!

Another snake also lunged forward and flicked its head, but its target was clearly mischosen. It was heading straight for Jing Menghun!

Jing Menghun roared, leaped into the air, and wielded a shining longsword, using almost all his strength to bring it down forcefully!

With a slash, blood that was foul-smelling, dark, and slightly green splattered everywhere. The long snake tongue was severed, falling to the ground and twisting and writhing as if it were alive, quickly becoming covered in dust.

That snake suffered a heavy blow, letting out a painful hissing sound, its massive body rolling on the ground in agony.

The other snake hissed grotesquely, opening its large mouth and suddenly spewing forth a cloud of pink smoke, which it directed into the mouth of the injured snake. Gradually, the bleeding stopped, and although the snake appeared somewhat lethargic, it was clear it had recovered significantly.

"These are not just snakes; they are ancient spirit beasts, lust serpents!" Upon seeing the pink smoke and the peculiar healing method, Jing Menghun recognized the two snakes' silver horns and finally understood what kind of monsters they were. He quickly covered his nose and retreated like lightning, shouting, "Quick, back away! Don't breathe in that pink smoke!"

Everyone dared not hesitate, immediately retreating hundreds of feet at full speed.

"Throne, what exactly are these lust serpents?" one of the White Horse Knights asked.

"Lust serpents are not mere creatures, but a unique form of life," Jing Menghun replied, his spirit jolted. He appeared visibly relieved upon realizing what they were.

"Although these lust serpents look terrifying, they are not difficult to deal with. They lack any real offensive capability! Aside from their common method of swallowing and entangling, they have no other means of attack, and their speed isn't very fast. Their defense is fearsome, as their scales are much harder than iron. Be cautious, their weak points are the white spots located under their heads, about the size of a bowl. If that area is damaged, death is certain. There is also a similar white spot beneath the horn on their heads, which is also a deadly spot!"

"Ordinary snakes have their vital points at seven inches, but these lust serpents have two vital points," Jing Menghun stated quickly. "As long as everyone is careful and we manage to kill these two lust serpents, we will strike it rich. Once the lust serpents die, their outer skin will decay and be worthless; what's valuable is their blood, their venom sacs, a spring sac, an Inner Dan, and a crystal core. The lust serpents' eyes are rare pearls; their blood can even be used in medicinal concoctions! It can be said they are treasures from head to toe!"

As Jing Menghun spoke, his eyes grew brighter, as if this pair of lust serpents had already become his property.

"Then… what about that pink smoke?" one person asked.

"These lust serpents are the most lewd creatures between heaven and earth! That pink smoke is secreted from their spring sac, carrying a strong effect akin to aphrodisiacs. Even a body immune to all poisons has no defense against this aphrodisiac!"

Jing Menghun warned, "Everyone, be extremely careful. If someone falls victim to the lust poison of the lust serpents and does not find a woman to mate with within five hours, they will immediately rot away and die. Furthermore, there is no antidote except for mating! Brothers, in this desolate place where there isn't even a village, finding a village girl is a challenge! We must not let it enter our bodies..."
