Chapter 30 Snake Meat
In a hurry, Lin Xiaoman quickly threw a fireball, trying to drive away the eagle that was taking snake meat from her pot.
With a loud bang, she thought she could just drive the eagle away, but she suddenly "woke up" and quickly threw out a fireball bigger than before, hitting the eagle that was concentrating on the snake meat in the pot.
Suddenly, a shrill scream came from the eagle's mouth, and it turned around and flew away with a flutter.
Lin Xiaoman was stunned and hurriedly chased after it. The eagle did not fly away, but was still circling above the cave, shouting something and staring at Lin Xiaoman who ran out of the cave with murderous intent.
Lin Xiaoman looked up and said, "You still dare to come? I'll burn you to death. Not only did you steal my snake meat, but you also want to fight me, right? Fight me then."
As she spoke, she threw a fireball over there, scaring the eagle so much that it flew upwards quickly.
Only then did Lin Xiaoman realize that this eagle looked familiar. It seemed to be the one that tried to attack her on the treetop before. She thought she had gotten rid of it, but she didn't expect it to chase her here and steal the snake meat from her pot while she was practicing.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoman's heart tightened. That was close!
If the eagle had attacked her during her cultivation, especially at the critical moment of breakthrough, she would have become its meal long ago.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoman didn't plan to drive the eagle away. She wanted to keep the eagle, otherwise, she didn't know when it would follow her again.
After breaking through to the second level of Qi Refining Stage, the fireball spell that Lin Xiaoman cast became much more powerful. She felt that with her current strength, it would definitely not be so difficult to fight the snake again.
He took out a rope from the storage bag, gathered spiritual power in his hands, and then suddenly cast the spiritual rain spell on the eagle.
The next moment, a huge curtain of rain poured down from the eagle's head. Although it was a spiritual rain with spiritual energy, under such a heavy attack, the eagle in the air sank down due to inertia.
Lin Xiaoman was waiting for this opportunity. She swung the rope in her hand and tied one of the wing. She quickly pulled it down, and at the same time, she took out the fire bomb talisman with her other hand and smashed it madly at the other wing of the eagle.
This eagle is even weaker than the snake. She can sense the fluctuation of spiritual power from the other party, so she knows what's going on.
As long as she could control the eagle to a low altitude and catch it, it would be a matter of time before she could hunt it.
Sure enough, even though the eagle struggled violently at the end, it could not withstand the fireballs and fire bomb talismans she madly threw at it.
Tutu collected another first-level monster, and Lin Xiaoman put it into the storage bag with satisfaction.
Although she was reluctant to leave, she didn't dare to stay in the cave any longer. They had been fighting here for almost half an hour, and the smell of blood was very strong. Even if she used cleaning techniques, it probably wouldn't be completely cleared.
Lin Xiaoman hurried back to the cave to pack up her things, but unfortunately there was not a single piece of snake meat left in her pot. Even the last piece was snatched away by a greedy eagle before it ran out of the cave.
After coming out of the cave, Lin Xiaoman was still preparing to go up along the stream to find a place to live. Along the way, she couldn't help but feel the power of her second level of Qi Refining Stage again, and the smile on her face never disappeared.
With one punch, he knocked down a tree as thick as an adult's arm. While blowing air into his fist to relieve the pain, Lin Xiaoman looked at the tree on the ground and grinned happily.
"Lin Xiaoman, well done!"
She did not waste the fallen tree. She snapped off the branches and split the trunk with her spiritual power, and put them all into her storage bag.
She fetched a basin of water from the stream and carried it forward. It was already past 3 p.m. and it was about to get dark. She found a new place to live.
It's no wonder that there are actually quite a lot of caves in the mountains in this world of immortal cultivation. She reasonably suspected that they were all dug by other cultivators. The newly found cave is similar to the previous one. It is dry and not big, and there are vines and trees covering the entrance.
Lin Xiaoman cleaned up, lit a fire at the entrance of the cave, set up a pot, and began to prepare snake meat soup. He also placed spiritual rice in a clay pot, added some water, covered it, and placed it next to the fire. While the soup was cooking, he was also heating the clay pot. Shouldn't that cook the rice?!
Sitting on a soft homemade pine needle mat, Lin Xiaoman waited for the food to be cooked while taking out all the snake meat from the storage bag, smearing it with salt, and stacking it neatly in another large basin, and then putting it back into the storage bag. This way, it can be stored for at least a few more days.
Today is the second day of the survival game, and if she can get through the night safely, she will have survived to the third day.
Lin Xiaoman was excited, as he was one step closer to his goal.
Moreover, she actually broke through during this period and reached the second level of Qi Refining Stage. Even if she didn't get a ranking in this competition, she still made a profit!
A gurgling sound came from the pot, and Lin Xiaoman's eyes lit up. It smelled so good!
Even without any seasoning, the snake meat smelled delicious. Lin Xiaoman had never eaten snake meat in his two lifetimes, but he didn't reject it, so he ate it without any psychological burden.
Since it smelled so good, Lin Xiaoman thought about it and decided not to add any additional seasoning. After the snake meat soup in the pot was ready, she first filled a small bowl with the soup and meat to eat.
After taking a sip of the soup, wow, it’s so delicious!
Lin Xiaoman couldn't help but eat it bite by bite. The spiritual power contained in this meat was much higher than those rabbits and chickens she usually bought in the market.
It really is a good thing. No wonder she had a burst of spiritual energy just by eating a snake gall, which helped her break through to the second level of Qi Refining Stage in one fell swoop.
After drinking a bowl of snake meat soup, Lin Xiaoman felt warm all over. The spiritual rice in the clay pot was cooked. Lin Xiaoman used his spiritual power to take out the clay pot, opened the lid, and the fragrance came to his nose. He scooped out the rice inside and mixed it with the snake meat soup.
Xiang is confused!
Lin Xiaoman ate mouthful after mouthful, almost swallowing his tongue, his face flushed red and his eyes sparkling in the firelight. Soon he finished a bowl of soup and rice, and his stomach was already full.
Staring at the few pieces of snake meat and soup left in the pot, Lin Xiaoman's eyes were full of regret. Her mouth wanted to eat, but her stomach was no longer able to hold more.
Moreover, she didn't dare to eat more. The snake meat contained spiritual energy. She had already eaten several pieces and drank two bowls of soup, plus spiritual rice. Now was the time to digest it and transform the spiritual energy into spiritual power.
She put the pot of snake meat soup into her storage bag, then frantically performed a dozen cleaning spells on the cave and herself to completely eliminate the smell. Then she added some dry firewood to the fire and sat cross-legged to start practicing.
While practicing, Lin Xiaoman felt that the speed of practice was different from before. She decided not to sell the hundred pounds of snake meat, but to keep it for herself.
And as for that eagle, I wonder if its meat tastes good?
