Oh! Oh! Oh~

The song of the rooster woke up the world.

The moment the rooster cried out, Qin Langreflexively sprung upfrom the bed, and prepared to start his everyday mandatory course.

Although the lights were on by midnight and a chicken crowedat five, that was still the time for a man to train and rise. Thosewerethe teachings of the Old Poison Guy. No matter if the wind was blowing and the rain was falling, or if the frost was forming and the snow was falling, the Old Poison Guy would still demand Qin Lang to rise at the first roosters crow to train. Or else, he would putpoisonous snakes, scorpions and the like into Qin Langs blanket, to let them sleep with him.

Even though he was at Summer Sun City, Qin Lang didnt want to be lazy. He quickly washed his face and rinsed his mouth, then started running towards the small hill behind SevenMid.

This was the training location that Qin Lang picked for himself, and yesterday when he came to school he found and chose this spot.

Qin Lang concentrated completely, and started to train the Hidden Dragon Pillar.

The Old Poison Guy once said thata mans martial realm wasdivided into nine sections. The first was strength training, and the second was to pillar. To pillarmeant tosquat. It was a foundation stage that real martial artists must experience.

The Hidden Dragon Pillar was pretty magical. Three years ago, when Qin Lang just started training, his body was sore all over because of standing, and he was always scolded by the Old Poison Guy. But today the more he stood the more relaxed he got, and the more he stood the more vigorous he got. After standing as a pillar for three years, Qin Langs understanding in the arts of pilling also increased significantly. Moreover, one time the Old Poison Guy said something accidentally, and only then did Qin Lang know that the Hidden Dragon Pillar wasnt the Old Poison Guys skill, but rather a skill that he specially stole from the Buddhist school.

At this time Qin Lang was standing on the hill, and felt that he was like as stable as an old pine tree with roots deeply burrowed in the ground. No matter if the wind blows or the rain hits, it would not be able to move him.

Slowly, Qin Lang started to understand the real meaning of the two words Hidden Dragon:

Every person had 24 pieces of bones in their spinal column from their neck to their lower backbone, and it was just like a dragon hibernating in the body. Because of the existence of this dragon, people couldwalk on the ground, and look at the sky. But, the hidden in the Hidden Dragon Pillar did not have the meaning of hibernation, but rather to subdue. While training everyday, only when you subdue this dragon can you do magnificent things, and when you do things, it would be like One is not crying, but when it cries it will shock the world. One is not flying, but when it flies it will soar through the heavens.

Before winning over others, you must first win over yourself.

To train the martial art pillaring with Hidden Dragon Pillar, it was not only as simple as standing still. You neededto subdue the power of your body, and even needed to subdue your own thoughts in your mind to concentrate your power and thoughts on the dragon in your back. To do magnificentfeats, you needed to use the power of the heavens and earth to sharpen your power and thoughts.

With ordinary squatting methods, they wouldcertainly not be as profound and deep as this, and it would be impossible to balance the training of both power and thoughts.

Indeed impressive!

After suddenly being enlightened, Qin Lang gave the Hidden Dragon Pillar a two word evaluation. Although the Old Poison Guy was a mischievous person, the pillaring techniques from the martial foundations that he gave him were indeed top class!

Three yearsof painful training was incomparable to a moment of enlightenment. But, without the three years of training in strength and squats, he would not have gotten this moment of enlightenment.

Qin Lang knew that he had reached the peak of the second martial realm foundation pillaring.After that, he should be stepping into the third realm, the style category,to learn and understand all sorts of martial art styles.

After Qin Lang understood the magic of the Hidden Dragon Pillar, he didnt burst with excitement, because he was subduing his happiness in his heart, and continued standing in the Hidden Dragon Pillar posture. He was like the old pine tree at the cliff, showering in the afterlight of the stars, and welcoming the arrival of sunlight.

The first sign of sunlight appeared, and bird cries sounded everywhere.

Suddenly, Qin Lang felt a few pine needles fall on his head. On top, the pine branch violently trembled, and the little birds in the bird nest flew away, seemingly suffered from a huge scare.

He raised his head to look, and he only saw on the pine tree branches, there was a 2 meter long yellow-speckled pit viperwrapped around it. The snake had the yellow of cauliflower throughout its body, and its head was triangle shaped. With one glance you could tell that it was a poisonous snake!

The snake just finished robbing a bird nest, and swallowedanewly hatched bird live. The two grown birds could only chirp non-stop at the yellow-speckled pit viper, but it had no other method to scatterit away.

The strong consumed the weak. That was the rule of nature.

After the snake ate the newly born bird, it swaggeringlyleft and bird nest, and slid along the branches, seemingly planned to rob another bird nest.

Yellow-speckled pit viper, also calledoriental pit viper. Not only was the poison strong on this guy, its appetite was fairly good as well, belonging to the snake species that atea lot. It didnt matter whether if it was frogs, toads, mouses, birds, bird eggs, etc., it could eat it. Under food lacking situations, they would even eat their own species. Because they hadsuch a good appetite, those snake species grew extremely fast in the mountains and forests where there were plenty of food, and their body size could be compared to pythons.

As the snake slid down from the tree branches, it obviously saw that Qin Lang was there, but since that thing was so huge, it didnt seem to put Qin Lang in its eyes, and veryleisurely slid along the tree.

Whoosh!

Just at that time, a red light flashed past Qin Langs eyes, and like lightning it nailed itself on the tree trunk, blocking the snakes path.

What Qin Lang didnt expect was, the thing that blocked the path of the snake was ablood-red mantis!

This red mantis was about 10 cm long, and looking at its body characteristics, it should belong to the Chinese Mantis species, but the colour of the Chinese Mantis were usually green or dark brown. Those were protective colours, and they reduced the chances of being attacked by predators. Qin Lang had never seen a mantis that was so blood-red. Although the red was very cool, but it was also very easy to attract the attention of birds or other predators, unless

The red on this blood-coloured mantis was not a protective colour, but rather a warning colour!

For example, poisonous snakes or insects that had very strong poison would have very bright colours on their bodies. It was to warn predators: I have poison, dont anger me! If a God comes then the God will get poisoned. If a Buddha comes then the Buddha will get poisoned!

Also, from the position of this mantis, it was quite arrogant! The blood-coloured mantis stood just 10 cm outside of the snake, with two sharp knives lightly raised in front of it. A cold look flickered in its eyes, and it had a bit of If you want to cross then leave money down!

The snake was, of course, angered by this blood-coloured mantis. Looking at its body and strength, this mantis was really like the mantis in a mantiss arm stops a car. The snakes tongue flickered in and out. It looked like today it was going to change its taste and try out some mantis.

Sss!

The snake took the initiative to attack, and itshead sprung like a spring, opening its mouth towards this blood-coloured mantis.

Qin Lang couldnt help but sign inwardly. The bravery that the mantis had to cross worlds to challenge the snake was praiseworthy, but sadly it could only end tragically.

Although there were records of videos that caught mantis preying on mice and snakes, but those were small-sized mice and snakes. In the insect world, mantises could be counted as a hunting master, but against the larger-sized snakes, it was just like giving up your life!

Buzz!

As the mantis was going to be killed by the snake, it suddenlystrongly shookits wings, and the two front and back wings shone a gorgeous red light under the sun. It seemingly opened its wings to fly, but it didnt fly away. Its legs were still firmly nailed on the tree trunk, and rather that snake retracted its head, and seemed to be surprised.

A drop of liquid fell on Qin Langs face. He used his hand to feel it, but that was notdew. It was a drop of blood!

Snake blood!

The snake actually got injured?

Qin Lang was shocked. The scene that just happened went by too fast, and he didnt even get a chance to see clearly. But, looking at it more detailed right now, he found out that the two eyes of the snake got a 2 cm long cut, and it was obvious that the snakes two eyes were destroyed!

Damn! Is it real or fake?

Qin Lang couldnt help but be overwhelmed by shock. This blood-coloured mantis battle power was a bit too strong With one move it instantly blinded its opponents eyes, and made that snake lose a largeportion of its battle power. It was really too strong!

The snake became blind, and its fear overwhelmed its anger and hatred. It panicked and fell from the tree, into the grass, and escaped in panic.

But, this mantis didnt just let it go. It flew out with lightning speed, and landed near the snakes lethal point on the head. Pulling out its twoblades, it fiercely chopped down, and used the front of the blade to stab in the snakes head part, then the snake only struggled for a few more moments beforedying.

To kill a snake you hit the lethal point! Only, how was this mantis so clear of the opponents weak point?

Qin Lang was shocked by how the mantis killed, and was even more shocked on how the mantis was able to accurately determine the location of the snakes weak point. There were two weak points of the snake, 3 inch and 7 inch. Most knew the 7 inch of the snake, but a lot didnt know the 3 inch of the snake. 3 inch, it was the weakest point of the snakes backbone, and it was very easy to break. From that it will severely damage the snakes central nervous system, and lose control of movement.

After killing the snake, the mantis stood on the head of the snake, and gently displayedits wings while using a victory pose as it stood on the snakes head. After cutting open the snake skin, it even started eating the snakes brain tissue!

There are indeed countless of strange things in thishuge world!

Qin Lang sighed in his heart. He read a mantis catching snake story on , and he originally thought it was just a legend, a story, and there would be countless of fabricated things, but he never would have thought he saw the birth of a new legend today with his own eyes.

Just at that time, Qin Lang suddenly thought of something, and he exclaimed, Is this the so-called abnormal insects from the poison scripture?!
