1911 Abyssal Hell Devil Lotus! Snake Race! (4)

Many of these trees looked peculiar and distinct from ordinary trees.

They grew uniquely, with branches that appeared gnarled and menacing, giving off an eerie vibe.

“These trees seem to be poisonous?” Round Ball said uncertainly.

“They are indeed poisonous.” Wang Teng walked over to a large tree, covered his palm with his Force, and gently broke off a branch. A dark green sap oozed from it, emitting a strange odor.

For ordinary warriors, even a whiff of this odor would likely make them feel dizzy and disoriented.

But, it had little effect on Wang Teng.

“This is probably a poisonous forest,” he said grimly.

“It’s said everywhere on the Scorpion King Star is poisonous,” Round Ball said. “From the looks of it, it’s true.”

“Are there many planets like this in the Poison Erosion World?” Wang Teng asked as he walked into the forest.

“Not many, but there are a few,” Round Ball answered.

“I wonder what kind of beings would create such a world,” Wang Teng marveled.

“The small world created by eternal-stage marquess isn’t something we can imagine,” Round Ball said.

Wang Teng’s eyes revealed a hint of longing and anticipation.

Someday, when he reached that level, what kind of world would he be able to create?

Wang Teng swiftly dashed through the forest, heading towards the direction where Landon was located. To avoid detection, he had left his spaceship at a distance from Landon. It would take him several minutes to reach his destination.

However, he was fast even though he didn’t use his Light Bolt and only used his physical strength. His speed far exceeded that of an average cosmos-stage martial warrior.

The trees around him flashed by, retreating, and their sharp branches and leaves could easily scratch a martial warrior’s body.

If someone were to be scratched by branches or thorns on the ground, they were highly likely to be poisoned.

Even in the surrounding underbrush and trees, there was a possibility of encountering some poisonous scorpions or snakes, which could become lethal threats.

However, these branches, thorns could not cut through Wang Teng’s skin.

When some of these poisonous creatures leaped out and attacked, they only pierced through his lingering shadow, leaving them perplexed as they watched him disappear into the distance.

Approximately six minutes later, Wang Teng stopped his movement and hid behind a large tree. He activated his advanced stage morph talent and blended with the encompassing objects. His presence was concealed, making him appear non-existent.

A figure approached from the front, about several hundred meters away, moving deeper into the forest.

It was none other than Landon from the Parkers family.

Finally found you! Wang Teng watched the figure and a slight smile curved his lips.

Landon didn’t notice Wang Teng’s presence. He continued to advance cautiously into the forest. He was not moving fast, even appearing somewhat cautious.

The poisonous creatures in the surroundings were too dangerous for him. One small mistake could cost him dearly.

Landon’s expression was grave, and a hint of determination flickered in his eyes.

At this moment, he was completely different from his usual self. He had transformed and was no longer the carefree individual he appeared to be. He had put away his smile, and his face had turned stern, revealing a trace of sharpness.

Swoosh!

A subtle breaking sound suddenly came from the nearby foliage.

Landon’s expression stiffened, and a gray-white flame immediately seemed in his hand, wiping out like a sharp claw.

A small green snake suddenly lunged at Landon, but it was instantly caught by his large hand engulfed in gray-white flames, and crushed.

Splat!

The small snake instantly turned into a ball of fire and was reduced to ashes in an instant.

However, after the snake was burned to ashes, a grayish-green gas began to emanate from it.

Landon, caught off guard, had already inhaled some of the gas. His face immediately changed, showing a horrified expression.

In a split second, his complexion turned somewhat pale and greenish, clearly indicating that he had been poisoned.

“Damn it!”

Landon cursed furiously. He hurriedly took out a jade bottle and swallowed one of the pills from it.

Soon, the greenish pallor on his face was suppressed.

Landon let out a sigh of relief, but his expression remained extremely serious and somewhat unpleasant.

He wouldn’t have come to this cursed planet if it weren’t for that one thing.

But, he knew that obtaining that item was the key to subduing the divine flame. That way, he could rise in power.

Whether it was the talents in his family or the geniuses of the Stellar Academies, he was confident that he could surpass them all and become a true top talent.

Even Wang Teng, whom he had restrained himself against for now, would be within his reach.

Even if they are not in the same stellar academy, Wang Teng’s brilliance still overwhelmed him.

Despite his usual nonchalant appearance, no one knew how he truly felt inside.

Both Strachey and now Wang Teng, as well as the talents in the Stellar Academies, made it impossible for Landon to shine on his own. He knew that he was still lacking in several aspects and wasn’t their match.

After a brief recovery, Landon continued to move deeper into the forest without any intention of stopping.

“Interesting!” Wang Teng watched Landon’s performance from behind and couldn’t help but show a hint of interest in his eyes.

“This Landon… Why does he seem like a different person?” Round Ball couldn’t help but comment.

“He’s good at pretending. His previous appearance was probably just a facade.” Wang Teng shook his head.

“People are truly unpredictable,” Round Ball sighed. “I thought he didn’t care about competing.”

“No way. Anyone who can enter the Stellar Academies is ambitious,” Wang Teng said with a cold smile.

“Well… you’re right,” Round Ball pondered for a moment and then inquired curiously, “But why did he come here?”

“It seems he’s looking for something,” Wang Teng replied as he continued to follow Landon.

“I don’t know what it is, but it’s piqued my curiosity,” Round Ball said.

Wang Teng couldn’t help but chuckle to himself; Round Ball’s curiosity was even heavier than a cat’s. There was no saving it.

Landon moved through the forest, stopping now and then to dig up some poisonous plants or capture venomous creatures.

This made Wang Teng completely uncertain about his real goal.

However, he kept a close eye on Landon’s expressions. The things he had collected so far didn’t seem to elicit extreme joy on his face.

This meant that they might not be his real objective.

On the other hand, Wang Teng recognized several of the poisonous plants he was collecting as mission targets.

Also, it overlapped with his missions.

He touched his chin. This wasn’t the right time for him to act. He would act after Landon found what he was looking for.

At that time, those poisonous plants would become his.

Yes, it was perfect!

For now, his job was to stick closely to Landon’s footsteps and ensure he didn’t lose track of him.

After following for about two hours, they suddenly heard sounds of breaking and shouting from the forest ahead, as if someone was approaching.

Wang Teng narrowed his eyes and initiated his Real Eye to look ahead. He saw a figure with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a snake being pursued and rushing in Landon’s direction.

“Snake race?!” Wang Teng was surprised.
