Sleeping for a second increases my blood energy. I become the strongest sky-swallowing snake

The scriptures were right before him.

Since he'd encountered them, of course he had to take them.

Unnecessarily, Xu Chengxian didn't want to make enemies by going back on his word.

"Besides, the things I'm stealing this time still need someone to help me fence them."

Even if they were all good things, he'd still need a way to get rid of them, and he'd have to be careful not to get double-crossed. If he chose to do it himself, he'd inevitably have to deal with these troubles.

If the treasures in his hands were sold cheaply, it would undoubtedly make his heart ache even more.

After all, these were all painstakingly 'taken' out.

The entities capable of swallowing these things would mostly have to be those sects, mountain gates, and various forces.

Selling to them would be the least troublesome.

"My powerful sect is fake, but Wang Shanlu and Cheng Ji's sects behind them are real."

Xu Chengxian could also imagine who Wang Shanlu had 'sold' the things he stole from the White Dragon King's treasury to.

So, he might as well not trouble himself with a second party.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated.

He took out the Black Jade Heaven-Sealing Box.

However, when he held the black box in his hand, he hesitated again.

It wasn't because of anything else.

Although a restriction had been left in the hidden place on the Black Jade Heaven-Sealing Box, as long as the scriptures were put inside, it would be necessary for the person who left the restriction to open it before the items could be taken out again.

This was a move left by Wang Shanlu and the others in this matter.

Even the restriction was only added temporarily, so it took so many days before they sent the thing over to him.

But Xu Chengxian didn't care about this.

If he cared, he would have noticed it as soon as he got this black box, and he would have flared up at that time.

He had no interest in the scriptures, and this restriction, besides preventing the scriptures from being taken out again, had no other effect.

Therefore, he was too lazy to bother about it.

Moreover, this could also reassure Wang Shanlu and the others, so as to avoid any mistakes in cooperation due to mutual distrust.

So, Xu Chengxian's hesitation had nothing to do with the restriction on the black box.

What made him hesitate was precisely the pond in front of him.

The small pond, seventy or eighty feet long and fifty or sixty feet wide, had no place to set foot.

And the lotus flower was blooming in the middle of the pond.

"So, the question is, how do I get over there?"

The water surface was very calm.

The pond didn't seem very deep.

Looking at it, one could see the bottom.

The bottom was a layer of dark obsidian.

Xu Chengxian carefully probed with his divine sense, and it turned out to be a layer of obsidian.

Logically speaking, he could swim over.

But the lotus flower contained Buddhist scriptures.

And he had just learned how坑爹the Buddhist methods were, so he had to be careful.

Even though the seventh floor of this treasure vault was very wide, he felt a bit crowded as he swam through it.

Creak ~ Creak ~

The crystal shelves that were closer made noises because they were squeezed.

Xu Chengxian couldn't help but look back.

Then he carefully retracted his tail.

The crystal shelves that could support high-grade magic treasures were not ordinary spiritual materials either.

Therefore, when he first came in, he had already thought that if he still had room in his belly when he went out, he would take these crystal shelves away as well!

"Don't want it for nothing!"

After curling up his tail, Xu Chengxian's gaze returned to the pond in front of him, and the lotus flower in the pond.

Then he began to stretch his body forward.

But he wasn't going to stretch his snake body over to take the lotus flower.

If that were the case, he would have just used the hand condensed from blood energy to reach over and take the scriptures.

He couldn't alert the snake.

Therefore, he only stretched his body a little, and then retracted his body again.

He didn't receive any attacks.

Nor did he sense any special magic power fluctuations.

Temporarily safe.

"Strange, does this pond really have no mechanisms?" Xu Chengxian stared at the water surface in doubt.

The sparkling water surface seemed to have countless tiny stars swaying and shining with mysterious and alluring light.

The water quality was crystal clear, yet deep and unpredictable, like a pair of eyes that could see through everything in the world, causing him to think of the eyes left behind after those Buddhas disappeared in the Transformation Array before.

But this couldn't stop his next action.

"Hiss!"

"I'll taste it first."

The giant flower snake stretched out its big head and then stuck out its snake tongue and licked the water in the pond.

He even dared to lick the heavenly tribulation thunder, what was this little water?

Then, his curled tail swung out again.

With a bang, it hit the crystal shelf.

However, Xu Chengxian would no longer feel heartache about this.

Because he suddenly felt an unspeakable freshness and sweetness spreading in his mouth.

That was the purest breath between heaven and earth.

This was, of course, an illusion.

It was the illusion brought about by swallowing pure heaven and earth spiritual energy.

"Hiss ~"

Xu Chengxian couldn't help but gasp.

This breath seemed to be able to wash away the dust from people's hearts, making people feel calm and peaceful.

Because, damn it, this was the breath of heaven and earth spiritual energy!

The same pure spiritual energy as the heaven-sent spiritual rain!

"Really, or fake?" He widened his eyes, somewhat unable to believe it.

This pool of water contained extremely pure spiritual energy, he had just sensed it.

But when this feeling was confirmed, it still surprised him.

"A grand gesture!" Xu Chengxian couldn't help but exclaim.

But then came a burst of ecstasy.

A grand gesture, he liked it!

Now, it was going to be cheap for him!

"Hehe!" He laughed, then opened his snake mouth, approached the water surface, and spewed out a stream of blood energy.

"I suck!"

Whoosh!

A stream of water as thick as a bucket was rolled up by the blood energy and continuously rushed into the snake's mouth.

Gulp! Gulp!

[Blood Energy + 100 + 100 + 100 + … …]

Gulp! Gulp!

[Essence Blood Energy + 0.01 + 0.01 + 0.01 … …]

… …

The water containing pure spiritual energy was swallowed into the belly in an instant, and together with the spiritual energy in it, it was refined.

In less than ten breaths, the water in the pond was swallowed clean by him.

"Hiccup ~"

And at this time, the scenery under the pond was also fully revealed.
