The next morning, Lin Caogen got up early and took out pots, pans and other picnic utensils from his spatial ring. He started frying dough sticks in the Star Dou Great Forest and also made several packets of soy milk powder that he bought in Wuwei Town.
Tian Lingshan and Du Yumei opened their sleepy eyes after smelling the aroma of fried dough sticks.
Du Yumei exclaimed happily, "Brother Grassroots, I didn't expect you to have brought kitchen utensils!"
Lin Caogen smiled and said, "After breakfast, I'm going deep into the forest! I won't be able to take care of you then, so you'll have to take good care of yourself."
Du Yumei nodded obediently, somewhat reluctant to part.
Through this period of interaction, the 18-year-old girl has become inseparable from her grassroots older brother.
At noon, Lin Caogen bid farewell to Tian Lingshan and Du Yumei and embarked on his journey alone.
Upon reaching the deeper parts of the Star Dou Great Forest, second-tier immortal beasts can be seen everywhere!
At 3 p.m., Lin Caogen discovered a giant python!
Coincidentally, this giant python was entirely blue, and it was the Azure Sky Python, which is quite common on the Third Ring Continent.
This is the second time Lin Caogen has seen the Azure Python in his lifetime.
He remembered the first time he saw this kind of snake; he went to the Misty Forest with Du Yumei and Song Qingshu.
When the Azure Python appeared, Song Qingshu cleaved its head open with a single sword strike and extracted its core. At that time, the Azure Python was already at the second tier. If the snake were to evolve to the third tier, it would form an inner core within its abdomen. The core in the head and the inner core in the abdomen of a third-tier immortal beast are both priceless treasures.
The Azure Python that Song Qingshu killed back then was also around the mid-level of the second tier, with a cultivation level similar to the Azure Python in front of him.
Lin Caogen clearly remembered that Song Qingshu killed the Azure Python with just one move. A single sword strike from above cleaved down, and the python was powerless to dodge. It must be said that Song Qingshu's peak Qi Condensation stage cultivation was indeed enough to crush ordinary second-tier immortal beasts. Among Qi Condensation stage disciples, Song Qingshu was truly an invincible existence.
Lin Caogen dared not be careless in the face of the Azure Python, while the Azure Python stared at Lin Caogen as if it were also assessing its opponent's cultivation level.
After a celestial beast advances to the second tier, its intelligence is far higher than that of a first-tier celestial beast.
The blue python stared at Lin Caogen, flicked its tongue, and then suddenly launched an attack on him.
This Azure Python was several times stronger than the Human-Faced Demon Spider in both speed and power.
In particular, the skin of the Azure Python is extremely tough, and ordinary swords and knives cannot cut through it.
Lin Caogen felt that the Azure Python in front of him was so fast that it could almost match the speed at which he drew his sword.
A sword's cold light pierces the snake's eye!
The blue python decisively turned its head when it was only two meters away from the roots of the grass.
The sword tip pierced the snake's temple.
Lin Caogen infused the tip of his sword with Vajra Finger Power, and with one strike, he slashed open the snake's head, causing blood to seep out.
Enraged, the blue python lashed its tail at the roots of the grass.
It never expected that this seemingly useless young man could actually hurt it. There was clearly no strong fluctuation of vital energy emanating from this young man.
Animals are more sensitive to fluctuations in human energy than humans themselves.
When a powerful human appears, their aura is so strong that it scares away weaker mythical beasts.
This is why the cores of third-tier immortal beasts are difficult to obtain. Those you can kill will run away upon seeing you, and those that don't run away are all stronger than you.
Lin Caogen remained calm as the snake's tail swept towards him. He flipped and leaped into the air, skillfully dodging the attack.
The snake's tail swept across the grass roots almost touching the ground, directly hitting three large trees, each a meter thick, not far away.
With a snapping sound, three large trees were swept in half.
This Azure Python possesses astonishing power.
Lin Caogen flipped in mid-air and landed directly on the snake's back.
He has awakened a technological genius, his brain is highly developed, and he has an exceptionally strong ability to maintain balance.
The blue python kept twisting its body, but Lin Caogen walked on the snake's back as if it were flat ground.
Even a Core Formation stage cultivator couldn't possess this ability.
Lin Caogen quickly ran off the snake's back and headed straight for its head.
Then, with a backflip, he flipped over the snake's head, thrusting his sword into the Azure Python's mouth. Using the momentum of his falling body, he then slid the sword through the snake's cavity and out through its cheek.
The blue python, in pain, shook its head violently.
Lin Caogen swung his sword and drew out the Cold Light Sword. The python thrashed wildly before crashing into a thick tree trunk, its brains splattering out.
Lin Caogen stepped forward and used his sword to pierce out the core of the Azure Python! Then, following Song Qingshu's example, he cut open the snake's belly and took out its gall bladder.
If Lin Caogen were to confront this Azure Python head-on, he would be no match for it.
Therefore, he had no choice but to find another way, stepping on the snake's back to go straight for its head, and then thrusting his sword into the snake's mouth.
The most difficult part of this maneuver was maintaining balance on the snake. As we all know, the cerebellum controls balance!
It was precisely because Lin Caogen's cerebellum was also developed to 90% that he was able to complete the snake-slaying mission with his Body Refinement Level 2 cultivation.
A campfire was lit directly on the ground, and Lin Caogen poured the blood of the Azure Python into a pot to make blood clots.
Then the snake meat was sliced, skewered, and grilled.
Then the snake gallbladder was soaked in strong liquor.
Once the blood clots have solidified, they are skewered on sticks and sprinkled with cumin, pepper, salt and pepper, and other seasonings.
In no time, the aroma of roasted snake meat wafted far and wide through the forest.
Above the sky, seven people were flying over the Star Dou Great Forest.
The woman in the lead was none other than Fu Yunxuan from Fanyin Valley.
Suddenly, Ning Xue'er, a female disciple standing next to her, spoke up: "Senior sister, look, there's a fire below!"
