LIGHTNOVELSTORY Chapter 6 - Spirit Fruit! Surprising Discovery!
Chapter 6 – Spirit Fruit! Surprising Discovery!
After the excitement, Qin Feng closed the attribute panel.
Just then, a gentle breeze blew, carrying a pungent odour in the air.
“Hmm! This … it’s the scent of the Venomous Nine-ring Snake!”
Qin Feng strongly inhaled the air and his eyes lit up. Immediately, he stealthily followed the direction of the scent …
While others were tirelessly killing ferocious beasts during these past three hours, he had been wandering around, gaining a basic understanding of the Newbie Plains.
In this vast plain, there were only five types of Level 1 ferocious beasts: Bloodfang Rabbit, Gnawing Rat, Prairie Gray Wolf, Berserk Wild Boar, and the Venomous Nine-ring Snake.
The first four ferocious beasts held no significance for him, leaving only the Venomous Nine-ring Snake, which he could extract from twice. However, the Venomous Nine-ring Snake was scarce, making it a rare find for him.
Now that he had discovered the trace of the Venomous Nine-ring Snake, how could he miss it? Thus, he stealthily moved closer. The gentle breeze carried the scent, and the closer Qin Feng got, the stronger the pungent odour became, intermingled with a peculiar fruit fragrance.
Strange! Why would there be a fruity fragrance? Qin Feng’s curiosity grew, and he increased his stealthy pace. Soon, he arrived in a small grove, and the scent became even stronger.
He knew he was getting closer to his target. With that, he crouched low, hiding his figure amidst the low bushes. In this perilous world, he had to be cautious at all times.
After walking several tens of meters, he finally spotted his target through a gap in the bushes … Under a large tree in front of him, coiled up, was a five-meter-long python.
Its body had nine red rings, making it particularly eye-catching. It was the Venomous Nine-ring Snake!
Qin Feng took a deep breath, feeling a bit excited. By killing this snake, he would be able to extract some energy attributes. The Venomous Nine-ring Snake was the strongest Level 1 ferocious beast in the Newbie Plains.
It was also the only Level 1 ferocious beast that provided energy attributes. During this period, Qin Feng discovered that energy attributes were the most difficult to obtain. The harder something was to obtain, the more valuable it became.
“Hmm! The snake’s belly …” Suddenly, he noticed that the snake’s belly was unusually large, as if it had swallowed something. This caused it to coil on the ground, appearing somewhat sluggish. In addition, he noticed a small mound of soil behind the giant snake.
Next to the mound, a half-foot-tall spirit grass was growing. The spirit grass had seven fan-shaped green leaves, and at the top, it bore a red spirit fruit the size of a ping pong ball. The peculiar fruity fragrance he had smelled before came from that red spirit fruit.
At that moment, the giant snake coiled in front of the spirit fruit, seemingly guarding it.
“This red spirit fruit must be a treasure. Otherwise, this giant snake wouldn’t be guarding it like this. It seems like I’m about to make a fortune!” Seeing the spirit fruit, Qin Feng’s eyes gleamed with excitement.
He was tempted. Immediately, he gripped his dual swords and stealthily approached the giant snake.
Soon, he was in proximity, just five meters away from the snake. But just then, the giant snake suddenly turned its head, its vertical serpentine pupils staring in his direction.
It had discovered Qin Feng!
Exposed, Qin Feng no longer concealed himself and directly lunged towards the giant snake.
Swish!
A burst of air sounded, leaving behind an after-image. With the enhancement of his speed talent, his speed surpassed even that of the Prairie Gray Wolf, which was known for its speed.
Hiss!
The giant snake was shocked and lunged forward with its head raised. Qin Feng swiftly sidestepped, easily avoiding the snake’s bite. The speed of the giant snake was no match for Qin Feng. Now, with its swollen belly, it was even more sluggish.
Qin Feng quickly closed in on it, his hand rising and the sword flashing coldly.
Crack! Snap! Snap!
Hiss!
The sound of scales shattering filled the air! Mixed within was the sound of flesh being cut! The incredibly tough snake scales were split into more than a dozen pieces by Qin Feng’s blade.
Hiss!
The giant snake writhed in pain, instantly turning its head and lunging with its mouth open. An overwhelming stench of blood and foul odor filled the air. With a swift movement, Qin Feng easily evaded the attack and rapidly increased the distance between himself and the snake.
Hiss!
The furious giant snake chased relentlessly. But after only a few meters of pursuit, a trail of blood appeared on its seven-inch mark.
Plop! Hiss! Hiss!
Then, the wound burst open, and snake blood sprayed out wildly! The giant snake felt intense pain in its seven-inch mark, its body weakened, and its pupils dilated.
Boom! Thud.
It fell to the ground, its body twitching for a moment before becoming still. With just one encounter, Qin Feng killed the giant snake. He let out a long breath, very satisfied with his performance.
Such outstanding performance relied not only on his powerful physical fitness but also on his extremely high combat talent. It was also the first time he realized that his talent for combat was nowhere near weak, but his previously weak physique had hidden it.
Buzz!
At that moment, a white light flew up from the body of the giant snake and entered his own body …
[Successfully killed Level 1 Venomous Nine-ring Snake, +40 energy points obtained!]
Qin Feng felt a warm sensation throughout his body, which was very comfortable, and a progress bar for his Level appeared in his mind.
[Level] : Level 1 (70/100)
Killing a Venomous Nine-ring Snake gave him 40 energy points, which was indeed stronger than the Giant Rat. At that point, he only needed to kill one more Level 1 ferocious beast to easily advance to Level 2.
It seemed that Levelling up was not difficult at all! With this thought in mind, Qin Feng revealed a satisfied smile. Little did he know that if he were to voice this idea, billions of people around the world would curse him to death. In the current state of being, a novice was naturally weak, and there were very few who could single-handedly fight against Level 1 ferocious beast.
Afterward, Qin Feng took large strides towards the snake carcass and pressed his hand on it … A flash of white light shone!
[Infinite Extraction successful! Obtained 2 points of energy attribute!]
Satisfying!
His energy increased once again!
By the way, why was the snake’s belly so large?
Qin Feng’s gaze fell on the snake’s belly.
To be honest, one of the main reasons he could easily kill the giant snake was because its belly was too large, making its movements sluggish. If it had been a normal Venomous Nine-ring Snake, he would have had to put in more effort.
With this in mind, he held his steel sword, enduring the snake’s foul stench, and made a cut downwards along the seven-inch wound.
Crack!
The white snake meat turned over! The snake’s belly was split open! A human corpse, covered in slime, rolled out from the snake’s belly.
Holy shit! This snake actually ate a person!
Qin Feng was astonished!
However, he quickly calmed himself.
In this world, people could die at any time. It was an eternal melody. He had gradually become indifferent to it!
He crouched down, placed his hand on the corpse, and attempted an Infinite Extraction …
He wasn’t sure if it would work in this situation.
Buzz!
After a moment, white light shimmered!
[Infinite Extraction successful! Second time obtaining F-Level talent – Visual Enhancement!]
Qin Feng was delighted that he could still extract…
[Both talents automatically stack and enhanced! Your visual talent is upgraded to E-Level talent – Visual Supercharge!]
[Visual Supercharge: Visual enhancement twentyfold, with night vision capability.]
[Talent evolution successful, automatic awakening of talent skill – True Sight.]
[True Sight: When active, the skill can help perceive the essence of things.]
“Hahaha! This is amazing!” Qin Feng was ecstatic.
He didn’t expect that extracting an F-Level talent would bring about such significant changes. It turned out that he already had F-Level Visual Enhancement. The talent of the corpse was also F-Level Visual Enhancement.
After another successful extraction, his visual talent would be further enhanced, evolving into E-Level Visual Supercharge.
Infinite Extraction was truly extraordinary!
In reality, everyone’s talents could be upgraded and evolved, but the conditions were extremely strict, the difficulty was immense, and there were Level restrictions. However, Qin Feng’s talent evolution was clearly different.
As long as he extracted the same talent multiple times, there was a certain chance for the talent to undergo an evolution. This made evolving a talent much easier for him than others.
In addition, after the successful evolution of talents, there was a chance of awakening talent skills.
This probability was very low.
But just now, after Qin Feng’s visual talent evolved, he successfully awakened the talent skill – True Sight.
This was also the first skill he mastered.
At that moment, he suppressed his excitement and looked at the red spirit fruit in front of him …
True Sight instantly activated, and a screen appeared in his eyes.
[Name] : Red Python Fruit
[Grade]: First Grade Spirit Fruit
[Effect] : Non-toxic, consumption enhances physique and improves poison resistance.
True Sight was really incredible! He could instantly discern the details of the spirit fruit. Qin Feng incredibly happy. With this skill, he could discern many unknown things. This was a great advantage for resource acquisition!
Speaking of which, this Red Python Fruit was also a treasure. It could enhance his physique. His weakest aspect at the moment was his physique, so acquiring this fruit was simply perfect. With this in mind, he happily walked towards the spirit fruit …
