Chapter 807: He knows nothing!
Upon hearing this, Bai Wuwen turned to look at the lake, where he saw all the fish swarming around, densely packed, causing the water to ripple violently.
"What's going on? Why are they all coming this way? Gu Yin, hold on tight! Be careful not to be thrown into the lake! Everyone on high alert!" After saying that, he prepared his weapons and kept a close eye on the lake.
The leader did not hide in the middle, but turned around to look at the lake.
Gu Yin also took out the wooden gun.
"Why are they all gathered in this direction? Is there something on the speedboat that's attracting them?" Bai Wuwen asked, looking at the scene in front of Gu Yin.
After the fish came over, they circled the kayak a few times, and then all stopped in front of Gu Yin.
"I don't see anything, but it doesn't look like an organized group. It looks more like a fight over something. What's in the water? Move the kayak forward and take a look!" The commander analyzed the scene before him.
Bai Wuwen's subordinates nodded upon hearing this and started the inflatable boat, at which point waves began to rise on the water.
"Don't move! Sit still! The giant snake is coming!"
Waves of water rippled out in front of the kayak! The kayak was pushed back a short distance by the waves before coming to a stop.
Looking at the enormous creature before her, Gu Yin blurted out, "Are you sure this is a snake and not a dragon?"
The giant snake seemed to have heard Gu Yin's voice, and its gaze instantly turned to Gu Yin.
Its dark scales, its enormous, upright body rising from the lake like a towering building, and its lantern-like eyes all told Gu Yin that this was no ordinary snake!
Bai Wuwen's face turned pale as he took out a talisman from his waist and lit it: "It wasn't like this when I saw it last time! This one's eyes are intact, I wonder if it's still the same big snake!"
The talisman spontaneously combusted and ended in an instant: "I have already notified the base, and I hope we can hold out until they arrive."
The fish that had scattered earlier swarmed back in, and the people on the dinghy immediately suspected that something on the dinghy was attracting them.
"Get another kayak!" the commander immediately ordered, and the others quickly began making arrangements.
Gu Yin always felt that the snake was looking at her.
"To be precise, that should be a giant serpent preparing for its tribulation. It's currently at its peak and just needs an opportunity to complete the tribulation," 001 flew onto Gu Yin's head, perched on her hair, and continued.
"Your feeling is correct. It is watching you. Didn't you take something out of the Sumeru Mustard Seed to eat earlier? Think about what's in there. This is the Dharma-ending Age. All those things you had were obtained from the cultivation world. A little bit of spiritual energy there is more than all the spiritual energy in this plane. Any sentient being with a little awareness can sense it. This is the cleanest and most unpolluted place in this plane. It's normal for the creatures here to have developed intelligence. You had something on your hands and just put it in the water. They must have come here because of the smell."
Gu Yin: "..." She really hadn't thought it was for this reason!
"Ah Yin, what are you daydreaming about! Get in the kayak!"
Gu Yin snapped out of her daze and turned around. The commander was calling her, and the kayak next to her was already ready.
Gu Yin nodded and quickly boarded the kayak, with the others following suit.
After everyone had changed, the leader looked at Bai Wuwen and said, "Step back, don't go over there yet, assess the situation before you decide!"
The kayak had only moved back about five meters when it was immediately capsized! It was the school of fish! Before anyone could see clearly, the giant snake moved, its huge, dark tail swishing, and the kayak exploded. The lake surface burst open, and a torrent of water rushed down from mid-air, soaking everyone!
Gu Yin wiped the lake water from her face and looked at the giant snake. It circled around in the lake twice, seemingly unable to find what it wanted, before turning back to stare at them.
"001, if I take some things out..." Otherwise, given its reaction, it definitely won't let it go!
If she were alone, she could simply enter the system, but there are other people here, and they wouldn't leave her alone.
Upon hearing this, 001 looked at the giant snake and said, "Enter the system and I will help you communicate with it using your consciousness. It is clear that it has become intelligent, but it may not be that smart. Try to communicate with it and see."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yin immediately entered the system. With the help of 001, she flew to the Great God in the form of a consciousness.
Suddenly transported out, Gu Yin opened her eyes to find herself standing right in front of a giant snake: "...Next time, could you give me some time to prepare?"
001: "Are you that timid?"
Gu Yin was speechless. Wasn't this obvious? What if such a big snake accidentally flew into her stomach?
Gu Yin ignored 001 and looked at the lantern-sized eyes in front of her. She saw that it was not moving and was just quietly looking at her.
Gu Yin raised her hand and waved: "Hi, hello there. I have what you're looking for, but can we make a deal? You let us leave, and I'll give you what you need. Is that okay?"
After a moment of silence, Gu Yin sighed and was about to continue communicating when she saw it stretch out its body and slowly come to Gu Yin's front. Its vertical pupils stared at Gu Yin for a while.
As Gu Yin held her breath, wondering what was going on, it suddenly spoke.
"How could you... have an out-of-body experience?"
Gu Yin was surprised; it was actually the voice of a very young girl! The voice was clear and crisp, but a little unnatural, obviously because she didn't speak often.
"I have my own methods. What I just told you, do you think they're feasible?"
The giant snake blinked its eyes: "What do you have? The spiritual energy here is scarce. I've been here for hundreds of years to grow to this size. I'm preparing to undergo my tribulation now, which requires a lot of spiritual energy. I'm suppressing it right now, but if I can't suppress it, I will automatically absorb the spiritual energy of this realm. At that time, there will be widespread suffering, and I will fail my tribulation due to insufficient spiritual energy. I was born and raised here, and I don't want to cause such consequences because of myself. Just now at the bottom of the lake, I sensed a different kind of spiritual energy, which was very rich! It came from you."
After speaking it once, it became increasingly fluent.
"That's because you ate pills from the cultivation world, so it's normal for your body to have spiritual energy," 001 explained to Gu Yin.
Gu Yin nodded and looked at the giant snake: "I can provide you with the pills you need to overcome your tribulation, but you must guarantee that you will behave yourself after you successfully overcome your tribulation. Otherwise, I can help you overcome your tribulation, but I can also destroy you!"
The giant snake was surprised that Gu Yin actually had it, and immediately raised its neck and nodded happily: "No problem, I don't like fighting. If they hadn't woken me from my sleep with that annoying sound, I wouldn't have hit them. Besides, they blinded me, so we're even! I haven't hurt anyone since!"
She likes sleeping and swimming, and really dislikes roughhousing.
Gu Yin nodded upon hearing this: "What do you need to prepare for your tribulation?"
"Yes, I need to prepare for two days. Are you a staff member here? Will you be stationed here permanently?"
Gu Yin nodded.
"Then come find me here in three days!"
Gu Yin: "..." This snake is a bit naive.
The people on the raft were immediately troubled when they saw the large snake blocking their way.
"Wuwen, do you have any way to get rid of it?" the leader asked.
Bai Wuwen shook his head: "I didn't, but I've already notified the base, and they should be ready by now. Let's wait a little longer!"
After Gu Yin and the giant snake finished their discussion, her consciousness returned to her body.
He reassured her, "It hasn't made a sound or gotten angry for so long, so it probably won't hurt us. Can we go around it?"
As soon as Gu Yin finished speaking, the giant snake moved immediately, quickly diving into the water and stopping under the raft. Then it surfaced and swam rapidly towards the opposite bank, propelling the raft forward!
"Holy crap!"
"What's going on?!"
Before anyone on the kayak could even move, they were stunned by what they saw!
Gu Yin: "..." 001, she's just as reckless as you!
When the people from the base arrived, they saw a large snake with a rubber boat on its head, and the leaders and their entourage sitting inside.
"Elder Bai, when did your Wuwen learn how to tame beasts?"
Elder Bai: "...Why don't you think of yourself as a new member of the Comrades Association? You know nothing!"
