Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 165: Antidote On The Go

”That was a lemon viper.”

”Its venom travels from the origin of the bite until all the body is numb.”

”My heart and other organs will stop way before my whole body goes numb.”

”With the venomʼs travel speed, I have approximately 2 minutes before the venom reached my heart.”

”The antidote requires ingredients that I donʼt have, unfortunately.”

”Fortunately,” Ning looked towards the tree and said, ”there is something much better.”

Ning was grateful to his past self for having the forethought of learning a new movement technique. If he had kept on using what he had, the Twin step movement technique wouldʼve failed right now thanks to his unmoving foot.

Ningʼs sword turned black suddenly, and he unleashed an attack that cut all the snakes in the current vicinity. Suddenly, he flew.

All the snakes were down on the ground, so it was the perfect time to fly. He propelled himself into the air and flew to one of the fruits up in the air and grabbed it.

He quickly started bringing out the rest of the ingredients and started preparing the medicine. He didnʼt have time to properly make the medicine, so he started chomping down on the ingredients.

He took out all the ingredients and bit into it but didnʼt swallow it. Once his mouth was full with the ingredients then finally did he started to chew them all.

The snakes had already made their way up to him, and surprisingly, some of the higher ones even knew how to fly.

ʼThis is going to be annoying,ʼ he thought. He wasnʼt used to flying, let alone fighting while doing so, and he couldnʼt fight properly on the ground until his leg was cured.

So he could only grumble and do what he could to stay alive. Qi attacks started flying everywhere injuring a lot of the snakes. But the remaining ones were more intelligent and thus knew when to dodge it.

ʼSh*t. They let the dumber ones come first to check the waters, and now that theyʼve seen that I am a free target, they are ganging up on me,ʼ Ning thought.

Ning needed to do better. He chewed the ingredients as fast as he could to mix them, but it was still going to take some time.

He propelled himself forward once more and went towards some of the weaker snakes and cut them up. He then turned to the side and used a Qi slash to catch a snake off guard. The snake didnʼt expect him to attack so fast and died.

A black snake jumped onto his right leg. Ning tried to rush forward but couldnʼt do it in time as he hesitated due to the Cerulean Hornsnake being right where he was about to go.

The snake wrapped around his leg and bit it. Ning was scared that he was going to have to give up on another leg, but thankfully, he didnʼt.

The snakeʼs fangs broke into two when it tried to bite him. This snake wasnʼt as strong as the last one and couldnʼt pierce his leg.

Ning accurately slid his sword between his leg and the snake and swung it outward, cutting the snake into multiple pieces along the way.

Ning didnʼt lose his focus. He immediately looked around the battlefield. A lot of snakes were already dead, but the strong ones were still there.

Especially the Cerulean Hornsnake. It seemed to be waiting for him to get tired or injured before it could swiftly take care of him.

Ning wasnʼt going to let that happen. He took a deep gulp and swallowed the medicine that had formed in his mouth by now.

A cool sense washed down his esophagus as it reached his stomach. Once there, he could sense the medicine being sent to each and every corner of his body.

Even as the snakes moved towards him, the sense on his left leg was starting to come back and he was starting to get his feeling back into his leg.

”Thatʼs much better,” he thought as he finally used the Twin Step Movement technique to dash forward and cut a snake with his sword.

The snake however survived but with a deep gash on its body. ”I guess you guys arenʼt going to be so easy to hurt now, are you?”

In an abrupt fashion, Ning stored his sword back into his storage bag. ”Now that there arenʼt that many of you, I can finally use it,” he said as he took out a spear with a silver blade and a blue body.

The spear had a much deeper blue than Ningʼs clothes or the Cerulean Hornsnake. Ning swung it around a few and got used to its weight.

”Wow, this really is an amazing spear,” he thought and start spinning it around from left to right. As he spun more and more, the power in his spear started increasing as well.

He made a simple slash and the snake which just had a long gash in its body got cut into two.

”Damn, it feels good to have a spear with a long blade. Cutting is so much easier with this,” he said. ”Is the blade itself better than the other sword?” he wondered.

He saw a snake sneak around his back and try to lunge at him. Without even turning towards it, he immediately swung behind him and cut the snake in half.

The snake was weaker than the other one, but he wasnʼt sure he could completely cut it in half in a single blow without any techniques with the sword.

Ning continued swinging his spear around and made his way across the entire battlefield, killing one snake after another. Thanks to their low amount, he could keep on revolving the spear around, stacking more and more power on the spear.

Finally, he cut the last of the snakes on the battlefield as its body split in two. Then, he turned towards the Cerulean Hornsnake.

It was time for the two of them to fight.
