"If that's the case, I'll give you the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn. If the Long Palace Snake you've created can delay us for more than that, I'll give you an intact corpse, too?" Zhu Minglang said.
"A Celestial Highness, a Celestial Highness, there's a weakness. The Long Palace Snake has a weakness. It's located at the ninth palace. It's the hub that controls all the mechanical snakes!" Mo Kuan blurted out.
When Zhu Minglang heard this, he nodded and loudly reminded He Yiling, who was flying on the Long Palace Snake.
He Yiling did not turn around to check the situation. After hearing Zhu Minglang's reminder, she immediately stepped on the edge of the saber formation and flew toward the ninth palace.
The mechanical snakes began to move. They were like thousands of people waving their sabers around. The slightest mistake would result in them being minced into pieces.
He Yiling was as light as a swallow. She was able to find a special foothold. She arrived at the ninth palace, which happened to be the neck of the enormous Long Palace Snake. He Yiling did not notice anything special at first. She finally saw a crystal under the Long Palace Snake's neck when she flipped under it!
The crystal was like the Long Palace Snake's heart. The Mystical Origin Energy that the mechanical snakes needed came from the special crystal.
He Yiling nimbly dodged the enormous snake and slashed at the crystal with her sabers. The crystal instantly shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.
However, the Long Palace Snake did not stop moving. It continued to move wildly. Every time its body came into contact with the ground, it unleashed a great force. Its scales and skin were flying in all directions!
He Yiling dodged under the snake's body. She was cut in a few places, leaving shallow cuts on her body.
"It seems like you don't even want your corpse to be intact?" Zhu Minglang said coldly when he saw the situation.
Even after shattering the Secret Origin Crystal, the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake was still as lively as ever, as if it had obtained some kind of violent energy. Its speed and strength had both increased to a whole new level. Even its scales were spinning like sharp gears. It did not dare to get any closer. If it was placed on a battlefield, it would definitely be the most terrifying mincing machine!
"I … I didn't create it. I'm only responsible for maintaining it. It's the masterpiece of our Mo Kuan when he was young. I'm only here to replace some of the components and replace them with the Mystical Origin Energy," Mo Kuan said nervously.
"That means you're useless," Zhu Minglang said. He kicked Mo Kuan off the platform.
Mo Kuan fell to the ground. He was bleeding profusely.
The cultivators that came with Zhu Minglang and the others were a bunch of Martial Cultivators. They were obviously from the same faction. Many people were caught in the crossfire when He Yiling was fighting the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake. Those with Master-level cultivation were too insignificant in front of the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake. They were killed instantly when the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake got close to them.
These people were infuriated when they saw Mo Kuan being kicked off the platform. They showed no mercy and broke all of Mo Kuan's joints.
Mo Kuan cried out in agony. He was still holding his head high just a moment ago. He never thought he would fall into the hands of these lowly commoners, and be crippled on the side of his body …
Zhu Minglang was standing at the highest point. He could see the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake's head and eyes at the same level.
The Long Palace Giant Machine Snake was enraged, as if it had emotions and anger, especially when Zhu Minglang tossed Mo Kuan off the platform. The Long Palace Giant Machine Snake seemed to have set its eyes on Zhu Minglang. If it weren't for He Yiling, the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake would have torn Zhu Minglang into pieces by now.
As he thought, Zhu Minglang's instincts were right.
When the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake knocked He Yiling flying again, the terrifying creature headed straight for Zhu Minglang. It was brimming with murderous intent and anger. Scorching steam was bursting out of its joints, like a burning metal beast!
When Zhu Minglang saw this scene, he could not help but admire this Mo Shoushen. He could actually use those machines to create such mechanical beasts that were not inferior to the Devil God.
But as someone who came from a family of craftsmen, Zhu Minglang believed that this thing was definitely not as simple as a cold machine. It obviously had a certain level of spiritual awareness, and was an existence similar to an artifact spirit!
The Long Palace Giant Mechanical Snake was not being controlled by Mo Kuan, nor was it being driven by some mysterious crystal source. It had been infused with the craftsmanship of Mo Shou, a god, and had given birth to its own life. Even though its body was made up of eleven long palaces, and its bones, organs, and blood were made up of countless gears, wheels, and links, it still had its own soul!
"Peng!!"
The Long Palace Giant Machine Snake slammed heavily against the towering wall. It wanted to knock Zhu Minglang down from above.
Zhu Minglang stared at the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake from a close distance. If it had a consciousness, he could easily intimidate it!
Zhu Minglang opened his eyes wide. He released his divine soul and used his authority to suppress the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake's arrogance.
As expected, the Long Palace Giant Mechanical Snake was suppressed by its status. This mechanical beast was the Machine Spirit Deity that had gained sentience. It was worshipped by the Mo Clan as a deity. It had already surpassed the category of ordinary mechanical beasts and could move on its own. It even had its own consciousness!
The Long Palace Giant Machine Snake could not move under Zhu Minglang's divine gaze. It was as if its body had frozen. The hot air on its body also disappeared.
At this moment, He Yiling charged over again. She was gliding above the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake, but she was looking at Zhu Minglang in confusion.
He Yiling did not understand how Zhu Minglang had made this Berserk Mechanical Snake so stiff that it could not move.
"Attack through its eyes and destroy all the components in its head!" Zhu Minglang said to He Yiling.
He Yiling did not think too much about it. She had also observed that the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake's eyes were the only way to break through.
She flew in and slashed open the Long Palace Giant Machine Snake's eyes with her sabers. She was as swift as the wind, and her sabers were like a storm. The Long Palace Giant Machine Snake's head was made up of the eleventh palace. It was very spacious inside. He Yiling soon discovered that there was a Snake Emperor at the top of the palace.
The Snake Emperor was transparent, as if it was made of glass jade. It kept swimming around the rings at the top of the palace. The enormous Long Palace Giant Machine Snake seemed to be gaining momentum as it kept moving. Every segment of the Snake Emperor's body had a huge rune, corresponding to the patterns on the top of the eleven palaces!
He Yiling did not hesitate any longer. She slashed the mechanical snakes that came out and dragged the Glass Snake Emperor out.
