NOVEL NEXT Chapter 6: Chapter 6 The Special Ability Arrives
The Flying Spear anticipated the Flower Python's movements, and even as the creature continued to advance, it still nailed the python's vital spot precisely.
The Flower Python's central nervous system was pinned, reflexively rolling and twisting its body into knots; however, the wooden spike was driven in too firmly. Despite its desperate struggles, it only increased its pain and could do nothing else.
In this way, the Flower Snake slowly lost its ability to move in front of them, and eventually died a thorough death.
The two children stared blankly at the scene before them, then looked up to see their eldest sister returning from the night.
She was carrying firewood and wild fruits, with a trace of a smile at the corner of her mouth.
"Ah... snake meat, I have never tasted it."
"!!!!"
At Bai Junjun's sudden appearance, the two kids immediately perked up, but upon hearing her chilling words, they couldn't help but shiver.
The minds of children are easy to understand; their joy was simply because their big sister hadn't abandoned them, and their anxiety stemmed from the fact that their sister seemed to have been agitated, turning somewhat unsettling.
However, the reason Bai Ren salivated over the Flower Snake was mainly that there was no food left on Earth after The Apocalypse, and people could only survive on the Nutrient Solution purified by Wood-series Ability Users.
As a major player of the Wood-series Ability, she didn't need to consume Nutrient Solution at all; she could directly convert Crystal Core energy to maintain her life.
So, not just snake meat, she had not tasted anything in this forest.
Bai Ren glanced at the dead Flower Python and then silently looked towards Bai Sasa, "Can you cook it?"
Bai Sasa, being called upon, nodded eagerly, having learned quite a bit from those women on their journey of refuge.
Bai Ren pulled out the wooden stick with satisfaction, and the snake came up with the stick like a skewered sausage.
Bai Ren tossed the Flower Snake in front of Bai Sasa, "This is for you to handle."
"Um... okay." Bai Sasa looked at the snake and involuntarily trembled again.
Although Bai Lingyu was young, as soon as Bai Ren dropped off the firewood, she immediately ran out from the tree hole to make fire by drilling wood, and Bai Sasa also began to busily take care of the aftermath for the snake.
Seeing that both of them had tasks to do, Bai Ren climbed up above the tree hole and sat down.
When she threw the wooden stick earlier, she had felt a faint fluctuation of Special Ability within herself, which also allowed the Flying Spear to nail the Flower Python accurately.
Bai Ren vaguely felt that her Special Ability might have followed her here as well.
In order to confirm the existence of her Special Ability, she cast aside all distractions and closed her eyes to sense the energy within her body.
Baihui, Xuanji, Shendao, Zhongshu, Qi Sea, she scanned through them one by one and finally found a faint but familiar fluctuation in the Qi Sea.
Bai Ren pursed her lips slightly and continued to delve deeper.
After patiently probing, she finally reconnected with her Special Ability,
She vividly felt a Special Ability light spot the size of a fingernail in her Qi Sea.
Bai Ren completely breathed a sigh of relief; her Special Ability had truly come along.
She couldn't activate it earlier because it was still too weak; using it wouldn't have been noticed by anyone.
Bai Ren slowly opened her eyes.
She could hardly believe that her 12th-tier Wood-series Ability with Great Perfection had regressed back to square one.
What was worth celebrating was that after over six hundred years of exploration through the early and mid-phases of The Apocalypse, the development and enhancement of Special Abilities had already found precise cultivation shortcuts by the late phase.
For instance, Wood-series Ability users had mastered the method of purification and conversion; it was as simple as operating accordingly. Although there were no Crystal Cores here, there was an endless supply of vegetation!
For her, this place was practically a powerful charging station.
So what if that Madman was flanked by five major Special Abilities; could it be that the heavens would give him thunder and lightning every day?
Unlike her, everything in sight was a source of power!
