Guixu Immortal Kingdom

Chapter 11 Killing the Snake

Although it doesn't smell good, it works.

As a layer of smoke swirled around them, sure enough, the venomous snakes seemed to sense some kind of aversion and instinctively avoided the area around the smoke ring, remaining hesitant and fearful. However, they did not completely leave, and their interest in Ji Tianhao and his companions did not diminish in the slightest. It seemed they were waiting for the smoke ring to dissipate before launching a full-scale attack.

"Kill! The smoke rings don't last long, so take advantage of this time and kill as many of these venomous snakes as possible. These snakes can actually drop loot when you kill them."

Qi Lin, unaware of when, picked up a ball of light that had been created after he killed the venomous snake.

After crushing it with one hand, a venomous fang immediately appeared in his hand, with a faint glow on it, clearly made of materials different from ordinary ones.

"These venomous snakes can drop money; it seems to be some kind of currency."

Hu Youni also crushed a ball of light in her hand. What she obtained was a coin the size of a real coin, a solid, round black iron-colored coin. On the front was a black eye, outlined by an ancient and mysterious pattern that was perfectly integrated into the design, appearing as if it were a natural creation. On the back, in the boundless darkness, tiny specks of starlight and stardust flickered, making it appear exceptionally mysterious.

It feels quite heavy in your hand.

Moreover, I instinctively knew its name: Guixu Coin, specifically the most basic currency among Guixu coins, the Black Iron Coin. Its face value was one, and one could clearly feel a special energy gathering on it, creating a peculiar sensation.

"Kill the snakes first, kill as many as possible. These venomous snakes might be a rare resource."

Ji Tianhao glanced at it and made a mental note, but did not choose to immediately check what was inside the light orb he had captured. In any case, almost all the light orbs born from the venomous snakes he killed were immediately collected into the singularity space. Even some venomous snakes killed by others were quietly collected. These light orbs do not recognize owners; whoever grabs them owns them.

The most important thing now is to kill the poisonous snake in front of us.

"The snakes have invaded the hotel. No matter where we run, we'll have to face them. It's better to run than to confront them. So why should we run? People are afraid of snakes because they're venomous. The ability to escape depends on whether we can actually escape. Now, the hotel is our refuge. The snakes are already inside; running anywhere is useless. Pick up your weapons and tools. If you don't have tools, then use your feet to stomp on them, use your teeth to bite them."

"If snakes can bite people, why can't people bite snakes? If you get bitten by a snake, you won't die immediately from the poison. Throw away your useless fear and have the courage to take your enemy with you, even if it means death. We can die, as long as we are not afraid, we can take the venomous snake that bit us with us before we die."

"Killing snakes can yield treasures and transform ordinary people into extraordinary beings."

Seeing a large number of people inside Restaurant B trying to escape, rushing towards the door, which was only so big, the rush caused chaos. Then, venomous snakes suddenly attacked and bit people. The more chaotic it became, the more dangerous the situation became.

Faced with this scene, Ji Tianhao frowned slightly, then exhaled and spoke. His voice was loud, covering the entire restaurant, and could still be clearly heard amidst the chaotic screams and cries.

His words immediately put the chaotic atmosphere in the restaurant to a jolt.

My mind, which had been filled with fear, suddenly regained a sliver of clarity, and various thoughts began to surface in my head.

“Yeah, what are we afraid of? There are snakes not only in the restaurant, but we can also hear venomous snakes in other parts of the hotel. Where can we run to? Kill them! Killing one isn’t enough. Even if I die, I’ll kill ten.”

A middle-aged man's face turned fierce. Two wounds were visible on his wrists, indicating that he had been bitten by venomous snakes. The blood flowing from them was black, clearly indicating that the venom was highly poisonous. Without an antidote, he would surely die.

Since we're going to die anyway, let's fight it out and take several times, even ten times, more venomous snakes with us before we die.

He grabbed a stool from the side, and viciously slammed it down on a venomous snake in front of him. The snake's head was flattened by the blow, and then it grinned, revealing a crazed expression, and continued to slap at other venomous snakes.

With each slap, venomous snakes were killed.

He curiously picked up a ball of light and crushed it with a single grab.

Immediately, a black pill appeared in his hand.

Upon seeing the pill, his face lit up with joy, and without a second thought, he swallowed it in one gulp.

As he swallowed it, he immediately looked at his wrist, at the spot where black venomous blood was flowing. The blood was turning red at a visible speed, clearly indicating that the snake venom had been removed.

"Antidote pills can be obtained by killing snakes. My snake venom has been dispelled, and I will be immune to most deadly poisons for three hours."

Overjoyed, the middle-aged man shouted, "Kill the venomous snake, and I can live!"

"An antidote pill, there really is an antidote pill! Kill them, fight these poisonous snakes!"

Those who saw it were overjoyed.

I originally thought that I would definitely die after being poisoned, but now it seems that it is not a certain death. As long as I kill more venomous snakes and get the antidote, I have a good chance of surviving.

First, he was provoked by Ji Tianhao's words, and now he knows that killing venomous snakes may yield antidotes. With antidotes, the lethality of venomous snakes will be greatly reduced. There is a difference in size between humans and venomous snakes. If there is no fear and fear is eliminated, then humans have the advantage.

"kill!"

"Die, die!"

"If you bite me, I'll bite you to death." "Little spicy strip, I'm not afraid of you."

Inside the restaurant, the wind suddenly shifted.

Puff puff! !

Ji Tianhao, with lightning-fast reflexes, gripped the Karma-Slaying Blade and precisely slashed down one venomous snake after another. In such a situation, no technique mattered more than speed, ruthlessness, and accuracy—hitting the target with the fastest speed and the most direct, precise method. No matter how beautifully you wield your blade, it's useless if you can't hit the target; it's all for naught.

One stab is all it takes to kill someone.

It's not that fancy, especially when dealing with ordinary venomous snakes.

It would be much easier to kill them.

With each slash, the ground was littered with the severed corpses of venomous snakes. The orbs of light on the corpses were taken away, and even some of the corpses were quietly stored in a spatial dimension. No one knew what would happen next. These venomous snake corpses, when hungry, would be food, would be meat.

"Hehe, there are many venomous snakes, but as long as you are not afraid, it is not a problem for a person to break in with their abilities. Especially with the antidote pills that can remove the poison, then you are even less afraid. Kill them. As long as these snakes are not endless, we will kill them until they are all gone."

Qi Lin grinned, smashing the iron shard in his hand with incredible speed, each strike killing a venomous snake.

For seasoned veterans like them, killing ordinary venomous snakes is no challenge at all, as long as they don't face a large swarm of snakes attacking them simultaneously.

Inside the restaurant, the survivors, led by some brave individuals, began to fight back against the venomous snakes.

Some even displayed a variety of talents and abilities.

For example, a bespectacled man who looked like a college student pushed up his glasses and waved his hand. A pale blue wind blade appeared out of thin air, first severing a venomous snake, then severing several other venomous snakes along the way.

Talent: Wind Control [Flaw], Derivative Ability: Wind Blade.

It's clear that it has only recently awakened its ability to control the wind. However, being able to acquire a derivative ability like wind blades, which has combat power, is definitely a very lucky thing, especially in dangerous environments, where it provides a high level of safety.

Once activated, it has tremendous destructive power.

He also knew how to calculate the trajectory of the wind blades, aiming them as far as possible at the direction with the most venomous snakes, thus greatly increasing the speed of the kill.

There was also a muscular man, over 1.9 meters tall, dressed like a fitness instructor, with a layer of black metallic sheen on his skin.

Talent: Metal [Flawed], Derivative Ability: Steel Skin.

Under the influence of his power, his skin became as tough as steel, gleaming with a metallic sheen. One after another, venomous snakes lunged at him, their fangs snapping off the moment they touched his skin. Conversely, he casually pinched the snakes' heads, crushing them to pieces, rendering them utterly dead. He killed two with his hands and stomped on two more with his foot.

His body is his weapon.

Those who were capable also calmed down and began to fight back against the venomous snake.

"The number of venomous snakes emerging from the ventilation ducts is decreasing, indicating that the attacking snakes are not endless."

Hu Youni stared at the ventilation duct and clearly saw that the number of snakes emerging from it was decreasing sharply. This meant that the number of venomous snakes was finite and could not be infinite. If that were the case, no one could survive, and the danger would increase significantly.

"Yes, as long as the snake swarm isn't endless, the danger level won't be too much, and we can still handle it. Killing one means one less snake."

Ji Tianhao spoke up with certainty.

"Kill the venomous snakes in the restaurant first, then seal up the ventilation ducts. That should be safe here for now."

Qi Lin nodded and said.

Restaurant B is filled with thousands of venomous snakes, which is truly terrifying. However, those who have been truly inspired to resist are gradually gaining a foothold and rapidly eliminating the snakes. Their numbers are decreasing at a visible rate, and there are snake carcasses everywhere, as well as a large number of orbs of light.

Many of the snake carcasses were silently collected into Ji Tianhao's spatial storage, as were some of the light orbs. He especially collected all the light orbs created from killing the snakes himself.

Before they knew it, all the venomous snakes in the restaurant had been killed, and the ventilation ducts overhead had been sealed off immediately.

"Mom, why did you leave like this? I found the antidote, please wake up!"

"Little Bao, my little Bao."

"Wang Meijun, how could you be gone?"
