Chapter 384: The Attraction of Demonic Power

The poison of the Naga Snake King is not so easy to cure.

Even with Shen Jianxin's internal strength, he could temporarily eliminate most of the toxins and regain freedom of movement, but if the wound could not be treated in time, the toxicity might relapse or even ulceration might occur.

"Where's my sword?"

After standing up, Shen Jianxin finally realized that he had lost his weapon.

"It was taken away by that snake."

Lu Ping said calmly: "It should have been attracted by the fragments of the demon body on the sword from the beginning..."

After the explanation, Shen Jianxin felt very disappointed.

This was his first sword, a prize from a competition, a medal of honor for his first fame in the martial arts world, and a testimony to the friendship of the 'Three Heroes of the Wind and Dust'...

As a result, he lost it after just one month, which made him very sad.

"Forget it, forget it. There's nothing we can do if we throw it away."

"Anyway, it's already happened, so you don't have to be too sad. The old doesn't go away, the new doesn't come..."

"Now it's more important to find a way to cure the poison in your body."

After Lu Ping's consolation, Shen Jianxin finally cheered up.

"Although...how do we solve this poison?"

Lu Ping had a plan in mind for this matter: "If I'm not mistaken, the one just now should be the Naga Snake King who lives on Fuqiu Island in the East China Sea."

"According to the principle that 'where there are poisonous snakes and poisonous insects, there must be an antidote', we can infer that there must be a way to cure the Naga snake venom on the island."

"Let's go, let's go find Fuqiu Island!"

Since they had lost the boat, Lu Ping could only use the huge block of ice under him to carry the two of them forward.

Using inner strength and spells to ride the waves and wind, the power to move forward was hundreds of times stronger than paddling, and the two quickly left this strange sea area.

As soon as we left the sea, the shadow of a small island appeared in the distance.

Knowing that it was most likely the Fuqiu Island he was looking for, Lu Ping immediately drove the glacier towards the island.

Soon, the two finally reached the shore.

"Is this Fuqiu Island?"

"Probably... Anyway, let's look around first. If we can see Garuda birds, Naga snakes, or whale-sucking sea forests, it means we've come to the right place!"

The two began to move deeper into the island, rummaging through the "garbage" washed up by the waves as they moved forward.

There are many ferocious beasts causing trouble in the nearby seas, so there are always merchant ships or travelers encountering shipwrecks. Most of these unlucky guys are buried at the bottom of the sea, and the things they carry with them will be washed up on this floating hill island by the waves.

"Level, firewood, treasure chest, rags..."

“There really is everything here.”

"If we had another camera now, we could directly shoot 30 episodes of island survival."

While they were complaining, the two came to a conspicuous inner lake on the island.

The lake was not very big, but what was rare was that in the center of the lake, a fountain about twenty feet high would shoot out every few breaths, which was very magnificent.

"Curious sight!"

Seeing this, Lu Ping couldn't help but exclaimed, "A whale sucking water... this is indeed Fuqiu Island!"

The two began to search around again, and soon found a stone tablet that recorded the origin of Fuqiu Island.

The island originally stood on the back of an ancient giant whale. As time went by, gravel and vegetation gradually covered it. As the giant whale swam around the world, the floating hill island appeared and disappeared from time to time.

These anecdotes made Shen Jianxin feel very novel.

Lu Ping had known about this for a long time, so he was not too surprised. Instead, he began to think: "Could the ancient giant whale be a great monster that also exists in the Origin Realm?"

While thinking, the two discovered many exquisite martial arts references around the lake.

From the above related records, it can be vaguely identified that this is a move belonging to the "Yuequan Sect" of the Bohai Kingdom.

The countries within the East Wulin territory present a phenomenon of "one strong and many weak".

In the past, Yang Sui and Li Tang were established successively, occupying more than 90% of the land of Dongwulin, but at the edge of Dongwulin, there are still some places that have survived and survived to this day. The East China Sea in the east and the Bohai Sea in the northeast are two of them.

However, the reasons why the Sui and Tang dynasties did not annex these places were different.

The East China Sea is located overseas, so it is difficult for Tang troops to enter.
As for letting go of a country like Bohai, which was built on land, it was purely because those in power wanted to prevent the country from "dying in comfort."

"The moves of the Yuequan Sect..."

"It should be what Yue Quanhuai left behind when he drifted here in the past, right?"

Yuequanhuai is a genius that only appears once in a hundred years in Yuequan Sect. At the age of sixteen, he was invincible in Bohai.

After that, he accidentally came to Fuqiu Island and stayed there for three hundred days. During this period, he swallowed ninety-nine Shenman fruits. He also created his own martial arts method "Garuda Ten Jue" when fighting against the Garuda bird that guarded the Shenman fruit.

The remaining moves that Yue Quanhuai left here were based on the Yuequan Sect's supreme sword technique 'Quan Ying Qian Shan', except that there were many new variations in between.

This was the result of Yue Quanhuai's comprehension of new ideas and innovations when he competed with many masters of the Bohai Kingdom in martial arts.

Lu Ping just glanced at it briefly and didn't look at it any more closely.

On the contrary, Shen Jianxin appeared very excited, thinking that he was like the protagonist in the novel, who had an adventure in a desperate situation and learned the peerless swordsmanship from some senior in the martial arts world.

After practicing all the remaining sword techniques, Shen Jianxin finally stopped.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he looked puzzled: "Why do I feel dizzy..."

"Isn't that natural?"

Lu Ping was puzzled for a moment, his eyes widened and he said: "You are exercising so vigorously, which speeds up the circulation of blood and the remaining toxins in your body are spreading throughout your body!"

Shen Jianxin was stunned for a moment: "But according to the protagonist's experience in the novel, shouldn't the poison in his body be naturally eliminated after practicing swordsmanship?"

"..."

So the reason why you were practicing sword so enthusiastically just now was because of this?
Lu Ping was speechless and complained about Shen Jianxin's IQ: "Forget it... I just saw a group of big birds over there, they should be the Garuda birds on the island."

"Let's go check them out and find some herbs to detoxify you."

“Alright, alright, alright… hurry up, hurry up!!”

The two came to the territory of the Garuda flock.

Seeing outsiders coming, the Garuda birds became restless.

Several of the fattest and most fully-feathered Garuda birds flapped their wings and flew over, landing on the trees and rocks around the two men, staring at Lu Ping and the other man, as if they were sizing up something.

Suddenly, one of the birds chirped.

Soon, more and more birds began to sing.

Shen Jianxin's face suddenly showed panic: "Oh no! We must have intruded into their territory, and these Garuda birds are unhappy!"

"Why are you unhappy? They are clearly welcoming my arrival."

Lu Ping raised his lips slightly: "Listen, they are shouting 'Welcome the new king to the throne'!"

"What the hell!" Shen Jianxin roared and complained.

"Then just watch!"

Lu Ping chuckled, stretched out his hand and waved at one of the birds.

Under Shen Jianxin's shocked gaze, the bird actually flew over and landed on Lu Ping's hand.

Shen Jianxin was so shocked that his jaw dropped: "Don't tell me you can understand bird language."

Lu Ping naturally didn't understand bird language.

But he possesses the power of the 'Southern Vermillion Bird' and is naturally attracted to birds, especially birds of fire. In addition, the Garuda bird can sense the good and evil in people's hearts, so he became closer to Lu Ping.

Of course, in addition to the above two points, there is another very important reason -
There is still a piece of Long Saburo's flesh on Lu Ping's body!
At this moment, Lu Ping finally figured it out.

Why did I frequently encounter sea beasts after arriving in the East China Sea?
Because these sea beasts are the bloodlines of the demon race left over from the original world.

They were attracted by the piece of flesh that was separated from him by Long Saburo, which contained powerful demonic power, and therefore gathered around him.

This was also the reason why Chen Yue and I encountered whales at sea before.
