"What is that? Could it be some kind of giant beast from the Desert Sea?"
Guo Jun's face was a little pale. The commotion behind them was too great. It felt as if a mountain was rapidly approaching.
Although they were still far away and couldn't see clearly what it was, the invisible pressure in the void was especially heavy, like a heavy boulder hanging in the hearts of everyone. It also carried an indescribable taste of brutality and madness.
"That's … the Desert God of Slaughter, the Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake!"
The beast tamer disciple's face paled. He frantically channeled his spiritual energy into the Fire Devouring Giant Tortoise as he cursed, "Damn it, why did we encounter such a vicious beast? Today's events are too unlucky!"
"What, the Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake??" Everyone's expression changed when they heard the beast tamer disciple's words. Even Senior Sister Sun, who had always been calm and cold, paled.
The Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake was a famous vicious beast in the boundless desert. It was an incomparably large serpentine monster. From its name, one could guess how terrifying this snake was. It was known as the Mountain Devouring Snake, and was one of the largest beasts in the world.
Legend had it that a mature Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake was over three hundred meters long. Although its cultivation wasn't very high, only at the peak of the Heavenly Spring Stage, its body was simply too large. Its physical strength was unparalleled. There was once a person who saw a crazed Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake whip its tail and shatter a small mountain over three hundred meters tall!
Cultivators who hadn't reached the Spirit Stream Stage would have to take a detour if they saw such a huge beast.
Speaking of which, the Fire-Eating Giant Tortoise was a powerful spirit beast that dominated a region. This kind of giant beast's tortoise shell alone had a diameter of 30 meters. On its back, a person could easily sit on it. It weighed tens of thousands of kilograms and had always relied on its huge body to rampage through the desert.
However, compared to the Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake, it was simply child's play. It was said that the Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake's favorite food was the Fire Devouring Giant Tortoise. It was its natural enemy.
At this moment, even the giant tortoise seemed to have sensed that a huge creature was rapidly approaching from behind. It immediately began to speed up desperately, its four strong claws desperately swimming in the sea of sand.
However, the Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake's speed was simply too fast. The boundless sea of sand was like an ocean to it. There was no resistance at all. It could clearly sense that the savage aura behind it was constantly approaching.
"Quick, let's float up. The sea of sand is a paradise for giant snakes. It's not good for us!"
The Beast Tamer Disciple roared and rode the Fire-Engulfing Giant Tortoise to the surface. The Fire-Engulfing Giant Tortoise shot out from the sea of sand like a sharp arrow.
The dusky sky reappeared in everyone's vision, but everyone's attention was cast behind them!
"Heavens, why is that thing so big!!"
With a cry of surprise, everyone hurriedly looked behind them. They saw that in the depths of the boundless desert, a tall protrusion was rapidly approaching from the sea of sand. The giant snake had yet to emerge from the sea of sand, but its bulging sandbag was dozens of feet high. It was like a small mountain was constantly approaching.
Clearly, the Blackwater Snake recognized that the giant tortoise in front of it was its favorite "delicacy". Therefore, it relentlessly chased after it.
"It's over. That snake is too fast!"
Seeing that the giant sandbag was getting closer and closer, to the point where they could clearly see the inky black snake scales in the sandbag, the disciples of the Heavenly Court were horrified.
In the region of the Fiery Quicksand, the Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake was an absolute god of death. It was the ultimate predator at the top of the food chain. Once this snake went berserk, even a peak Heavenly Spring expert like Senior Sister Sun would not be able to resist.
The Fire-Engulfing Giant Tortoise was swimming with all its might. Its four strong legs were like windmills as it frantically crawled backward. However, no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't shake off the huge figure that was gradually approaching it. After all, snake-type Ferocious Beasts were naturally much faster than turtles. This was an innate ability.
"Senior Sister Sun, I'll activate this for you!"
Just as everyone was panicking, Chu Chen took out a light yellow medicinal talisman from his storage ring and handed it to Senior Sister Sun. The cold-faced woman in blue was stunned for a moment. She glanced at the medicinal talisman and her pupils instantly contracted. Then she nodded and let out a soft cry. A vast purple spirit light frantically entered the medicinal talisman and completely activated it.
Boom!
As Senior Martial Sister Sun circulated her spirit power, the crimson light barrier around the tortoise shell suddenly changed into an earth-yellow light barrier. A strange fluctuation spread out in all directions.
When the ripple spread to the huge mound behind them, the enormous Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake suddenly trembled. It stopped moving, no longer chasing after them.
Huh? Why didn't the snake move?
The Fire-Engulfing Giant Tortoise ran as fast as it could. Everyone only saw the huge mound getting further and further away until it was out of sight. It seemed that the Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake had completely given up on chasing the Fire-Engulfing Giant Tortoise.
After moving forward for the time it takes for three incense sticks to burn, everyone was certain that the giant snake's aura had completely disappeared. Only then did everyone let out a sigh of relief.
"This is really a great fortune amidst the misfortune. That snake actually stopped chasing."
Senior Brother Guo, who was wearing a green robe, wiped off the fine beads of sweat on his forehead. He turned his head and raised his eyebrows at Chu Chen.
"I think I saw you give Senior Sister Sun something. What kind of medicinal talisman is it that can make the infamous Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake give up chasing?"
"Oh, it's just a realgar talisman. It's used to repel snakes."
Chu Chen smiled faintly and said indifferently.
"Hehe, it seems that bringing you along is really useful. At the crucial moment, your brain is quite sharp. You know that snake-type fierce beasts are most afraid of realgar. Not bad, not bad."
Senior Guo nodded with a smile. Everyone else also seemed to have come to a sudden realization. They all smiled and said that Chu Chen's luck was pretty good. Only the beast tamer disciple sitting at the front looked at Chu Chen in astonishment. A look of shock flashed through his eyes.
The beast tamer disciple had already driven the Fire-Engulfing Giant Tortoise to the Flame Lands more than once. Thus, he knew that the "realgar talisman" might be useful against ordinary snake-type spirit beasts, but it was completely useless against the Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake.
After all, the Mountain Devouring Blackwater Snake's body was so large that it couldn't be affected by a low-grade realgar talisman. If he wanted to affect that kind of huge beast, he would need an even higher grade talisman … the Dragon Stopping Talisman!
