Chapter 199: Chapter 129: Feeding the Giant Python_l
Translator: 549690339
Lin Yi steered his flying boat towards the top of the Giant Spirit Tree. He did not fly too fast, being fully alert inside and wary of the Giant Python suddenly
leaping out from the tree.
Perhaps the Spirit Ape was very human-like and would not kill people easily, but the cold-blooded Giant Python might not comply with this behavior.
According to traditional stories, only snakes have manifested into Monster Beasts causing havoc in the Mortal Realm. Unlike monkeys and similar creatures who have created mischief in the Mortal Realm, even the Monkey King only wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace but never in the Mortal Realm.
After flying through the cloud layer, Lin Yi safely reached a small open space on top of the Giant Spirit Tree.
Before he even had a chance to sigh in relief, a huge green snakehead suddenly appeared in front of him. The python’s giant eyes stared directly at him; its eyes were eerily green, with vertically slit pupils that were constantly dilating and contracting, which was extremely terrifying.
Lin Yi’s heart tightened. His body uncontrollably desired to fall backward, yet he stifled his inner fear. He then paid his respects to the Green Python,
“Senior Spirit Beast, I am a Cultivator who has entered the Secret Realm for trial. Previously, I unintentionally disturbed your beautiful dream, I hope you understand.’
This Green Python, although a cold-blooded creature, was indeed Elder Dan God’s spiritual pet. Hence, it wouldn’t arbitrarily kill without reason.
Hearing his words, the Green Python gave him a cold look, then slowly retreated its head back outside the medicine garden.
Lin Yi glanced at it and was shocked. The Green Python’s whole body was truly over a hundred meters long, coiling up into a giant mass.
In human eyes, green represents vitality and youth, but in nature, green animals often give people the creeps.
The top of the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden only contained a small open space for cultivators to land. With the coiled Giant Pyton taking up more than half of it and blocking the path to the Formation, Lin Yi was left uncertain how to approach the Formation and find the possible trial in the medicine garden.
He looked up at the Green Giant Python and found it had closed its eyes, seemingly resting.
According to his plan, in the remaining eight days, he would stay close to the Formation to gain enlightenment from the opportunity and also search for the method to undertake the medicine garden trial.
If he couldn’t find it or gain insight into the method of entering the medicine garden after seven days, he would have to take the risk of instant teleportation and enter the medicine garden.
Having undergone the challenge of the Inheritance Sequence, he wouldn’t receive any rewards if he failed to complete the three challenges.
Therefore, even if he got trapped in the medicine garden and couldn’t participate in the Cave Mansion challenge, it would not matter to him because even if he completed the Cave Mansion challenge, he would not receive any reward.
If he successfully instant teleported into the medicine garden and managed to pick the precious spiritual grass there, even if he didn’t complete the trial, he could take the spiritual grass out as it wouldn’t be considered a reward.
Lin Yi coughed lightly and once again saluted the python, “Senior Spirit Beast,
I have passed the Alchemy Room challenge and was included in the
Inheritance Sequence…”
“Today, I am here to complete the trial of the Giant Spirit Tree Medicine Garden. Could you kindly move aside to let me get closer to the medicine garden? I promise not to damage the Formation, I am extremely grateful.”
The Green Giant Python looked like it was not listening, with its eyes still closed, and showed no intention to move.
With a helpless shake of his head, Lin Yi concluded that even though the python was taken in by the Elder Dan God, it still lacked human understanding.
His test didn’t involve the python, even if he truly passed the Inheritance Sequence, he wouldn’t fully inherit the Secret Realm.
He glanced towards the edge of the medicine garden, determining he could only risk reaching the Formation if he were suspended mid-air, away from the open space.
“l won’t disturb your rest, Senior. I’ll use a different method to approach the medicine garden. I hope you would allow me.”
Seeing the Giant Python still showing no response, Lin Yi took it as tacit approval, summoned his flying boat, sat in the front position, and flew towards the nearby edge of the medicine garden.
Now suspended mid-air, the flying boat was well above the treetop branches which were part of the Giant Spirit Tree, making it unlikely to be attacked by other Monster Beasts, except for the Green Giant Python in front of him.
Lin Yi moved the flying boat closer to the Formation, and was immediately met with resistance. Standing on the boat, he pressed his body tightly to the Formation, trying to enter, but was blocked by the Formation. Despite the setback, he still gained an enlightenment opportunity.
He checked the Green Python and when he saw there was no reaction from it, he reassuredly continued to hit the wall.
As Lin Yi was throwing himself against the invisible wall formed by the Formation, the Green Giant Python which was pretending to rest opened a slither of its eyes and watched Lin Yi’s actions. A look of confusion appeared on the snake’s enormous head.
Soon. night came. and Lin Yi continued to throw himself at the Formation. His plan was to use up the first days enlightenment opportunity and save the next six days of enlightenment opportunities for combination at the end.
Because [Grain Wisdom from One’s Mistakes] was currently at the third level, he could accumulate up to six days of enlightenment opportunities. If, on the seventh day, he still couldn’t enter the medicine garden, then he would have to use instant teleportation on the eighth day..
