Chapter 252: Ten Thousand Years of Snow Ganoderma
"Puff!" Blood splattered and the man in black fell to the ground.
The remaining men in black were horrified upon seeing this and drew their swords to hack at Chu Tian.
Although Chu Tian had acquired divine medical skills, he had no practical experience after all, and he soon fell behind. He was caught in a dilemma and faced many dangers.
Just when he was about to collapse, the injured hunter suddenly struggled to stand up, picked up the hunting knife on the ground, and joined the fight.
"Brother, let me help you!" Although the hunter was seriously injured, his momentum was not diminished at all.
With the help of the hunter, Chu Tian’s pressure was greatly reduced. The two of them joined forces and fought a fierce battle with the man in black.
On the snow, swords flashed and blood flew everywhere. Chu Tian and the hunter stood back to back, struggling to resist the siege of the men in black.
"Damn, who are these guys?" Chu Tian cursed while waving his knife.
"I don't know, but it's definitely not a good thing!" said the hunter gritting his teeth.
"It seems that I have to finish here today..." Chu Tian said with a wry smile.
"Even if I die, I will take a few people with me!" A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the hunter's eyes.
The two men fought more and more courageously, and the man in black gradually lost and began to retreat.
At this moment, a sharp whistle sounded, and the men in black retreated and disappeared into the vast snowfield.
Chu Tian and the hunter collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath and covered in blood.
"At least I managed to save my life..." Chu Tian wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear.
"Yes, thanks to you, brother." The hunter looked at Chu Tian gratefully.
"You're welcome, let's help each other." Chu Tian smiled.
The two smiled at each other, and a feeling of mutual appreciation spread between them.
Suddenly, the hunter's face changed, he covered his chest and groaned in pain.
"What's wrong with you?" Chu Tian asked hurriedly.
"I...my poison...is acting up again..." the hunter said with difficulty, his face as pale as paper.
Chu Tian's heart sank, and he quickly checked the hunter's injuries. He found that although the hunter's wounds had stopped bleeding, the poison had spread again, and the situation was more serious than before.
"Damn it! The poison of this black blood vine is so stubborn!" Chu Tian cursed in his heart, and quickly exchanged the detoxification pills and ointments again, gave them to the hunter, and applied them on the wound.
However, the effect of this treatment was not obvious. The hunter's condition did not improve, but became more and more serious.
"Brother... I... I'm afraid I can't do it anymore..." the hunter said weakly, his eyes full of despair.
Chu Tian was extremely anxious, but he was helpless. He looked at the hunter's painful expression and felt powerless.
At this moment, the mechanical sound of the system sounded in his mind again: "Ding! The host is detected to be in trouble, triggering a hidden task: Find the Ten Thousand Years Snow Ganoderma! Complete the task to get a generous reward!"
Ten thousand year old snow ganoderma? What is that? Chu Tian was puzzled and asked the system immediately.
"The Wannian Snow Ganoderma is an extremely precious medicinal material. It has the effect of bringing the dead back to life, and can detoxify and cure all kinds of diseases." The system explained.
"So magical?" Chu Tian was delighted and asked quickly, "Where can I find it?"
"The Ten Thousand Year Snow Ganoderma grows in extremely cold places. The exact location is unknown and the host needs to explore it on his own." The system replied.
Extremely cold place? Chu Tian's heart trembled. He knew that this would be a journey full of dangers...
"The extremely cold place..." Chu Tian muttered to himself, his eyes drifting towards the rolling snow-capped mountains in the distance. It was the kingdom of wind and snow, a forbidden zone for life. He knew that this trip would be a life-or-death experience.
When the hunter heard the words "Ten Thousand Years Snow Ganoderma", his originally dull eyes suddenly lit up. He grabbed Chu Tian's hand and said with his last bit of strength: "Brother... I know... I know where there is Ten Thousand Years Snow Ganoderma..."
Chu Tian was delighted and asked quickly, "Where is it?"
The hunter coughed violently several times, spat out a mouthful of black blood, and said intermittently: "On... on the top of the snow mountain... there is an ice cave... Deep in the ice cave... there grows a thousand-year-old snow ganoderma..."
After saying this, the hunter's hands dropped weakly, and his breath completely stopped.
Chu Tian was filled with grief. He closed his eyes tightly and took a deep breath to suppress his sadness. He knew that now was not the time to be sad. He had to find the Ten Thousand Years Snow Ganoderma as soon as possible to save the hunter's life.
He buried the hunter's body in the snow, then stood up and walked towards the top of the snow-capped mountain.
The biting cold wind scraped at his face like a knife, and the biting cold eroded his body. Chu Tian wrapped himself tightly in the animal skin, took difficult steps, and climbed towards the top of the snow-capped mountain step by step.
The snow on the snowy mountain was so thick that it could reach above the knees. Every step Chu Tian took was extremely difficult, but he did not give up. He knew that he had to persevere, for the hunter's life and for himself.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Chu Tian finally arrived at the ice cave that the hunter had mentioned.
The entrance to the ice cave was covered with thick ice and snow. Chu Tian used the hunting knife in his hand to clear the ice and snow, revealing a pitch-black cave.
The cave entrance was freezing cold, and gusts of icy wind rushed out of it, making Chu Tian shiver.
Chu Tian took a deep breath, mustered up his courage, and walked into the ice cave.
It was pitch black in the ice cave, and Chu Tian felt the wall and walked forward cautiously.
It was very quiet in the ice cave; the only sounds that could be heard were Chu Tian's own breathing and heartbeat.
Suddenly, Chu Tian heard a rustling sound. He was startled and quickly stopped, held his breath, and listened carefully.
The sound was getting closer and closer, and Chu Tian felt a dangerous aura approaching.
He gripped the hunting knife tightly in his hand, ready for battle.
In the darkness, a pair of scarlet eyes slowly opened and stared at Chu Tian.
It was a giant snow spider, completely white, with eight long legs as sharp as steel knives.
The snow spider let out a hissing sound and pounced towards Chu Tian.
Chu Tian quickly swung his sword to block, and the hunting knife collided with the long legs of the snow spider, making a crisp sound of metal collision.
The snow spider was so powerful that Chu Tian's palms went numb and the hunting knife in his hand almost slipped out of his hand.
He did not dare to be careless and quickly took a few steps back to distance himself from the snow spider.
The snow spider did not chase after him, but stood where it was, staring at Chu Tian with its scarlet eyes, as if assessing his strength.
Chu Tian knew that he couldn't fight the snow spider head-on, he had to find a way to outsmart it.
He looked around and found some protruding ice blocks on the walls of the ice cave.
A bold idea emerged in his mind.
He deliberately exposed his flaws to lure the snow spider to attack.
The snow spider was fooled and pounced on Chu Tian again.
