The island was larger than she had imagined. The village earlier was only an insignificant corner of the island. Goddess Ling Xin advanced towards the direction of Coiled Snake Mountain. Along the way, there were large and small craters caused by meteorites. The originally lush island was now covered in scars.
"Looks like I'm not the only one who landed on this island with the Heavenly Fire … When the floating island collapsed, Xue Wanlu was very close to me. He most likely landed on this island as well. Who are the others?"
As she pondered, the Goddess had already arrived at the foot of Coiled Snake Mountain. Coiled Snake Mountain was larger than she had imagined. It spiraled upwards and pierced the clouds. It was a magnificent sight. However, Goddess Ling Xin had no time to admire this magnificent view. Her gaze was completely attracted by the densely packed snakes on the mountain.
She could only hear hissing sounds. Many of the caves on the mountain were filled with snakes of different sizes. Red, yellow, dark green … Snakes of various colors were densely intertwined. There were more than ten thousand of them. It was enough to make one's scalp tingle. However, although there were many snakes, they did not fight each other. Instead, they hissed in unison at the same rhythm, as if they were holding a welcoming ceremony.
"Is this what the villagers meant by thousands of snakes moving at the same time?" Goddess Ling Xin was surprised. Suddenly, she felt a chill coming from three directions.
She looked around and saw three figures appearing from different paths at almost the same time. They had unexpectedly met the Goddess at the foot of Coiled Snake Mountain.
From the east, Xue Wanlu, dressed in red, walked over with heavy steps. Every step he took was accompanied by the sounds of battle.
From the west, Ji Yaoyue's footsteps were light as if she was taking a stroll in a courtyard. However, the dual sabers in her hands shone with a dazzling cold light.
From the east, Ying Feiyang's expression was gloomy. He did not say a word as he silently emerged from the dense forest.
Although it was unexpected, it was reasonable. The four hosts of the Heavenly Book had all landed on this island and went to Coiled Snake Mountain to investigate at the same time. Their eyes flashed with surprise. Then, there was the sound of a sharp wind as they attacked at the same time!
When they met on a narrow path, they should engage in close combat. The four of them did not say anything. In an instant, the blood spear spat out energy, the white silk crisscrossed, and the light of the sabers and the shadows of the swords shone brilliantly.
Their forces intersected in an instant, and the force spread in all directions. The surrounding rocks and plants were destroyed, and smoke and dust rose.
But his swift and clean attack brought him a difficult situation …
When the dust settled, the four of them were locked in combat.
Xue Wanlu had condensed his Qi into his palm and blocked Ying Feiyang's Unbearable. There was nothing wrong with this, but his spear had been placed horizontally to the side.
"Blood Path Master, are you helping her?" Ji Yaoyue's white knife, Xuanying, slashed towards Goddess Ling Xin, but it was blocked by the blood spear, Destruction Evil. She could not help but glare angrily at Xue Wanlu.
"I owe her a favor, so I will naturally return it. Speaking of which, I have to thank Princess Tian Xiang!" Xue Wanlu stared back at Ji Yaoyue, unwilling to be outdone. Previously, when they were trapped on the floating island, Ji Yaoyue had used him as bait to kill Goddess Ling Xin. It was only thanks to Goddess risking her life to save him that he managed to survive. He was naturally not happy with Ji Yaoyue, who was supposed to be her accomplice. At this time, he actually helped Goddess block Ji Yaoyue's attack.
"You don't know what's important!" Ji Yaoyue could not help but scold. However, Goddess Ling Xin's beautiful eyes widened. She looked at her, then looked at Ying Feiyang. Finally, she said to her in confusion, "You killed him? And Brother Ying, what is the meaning of this? "
However, Ji Yaoyue's green knife, Bi Ning, was slashing towards Ying Feiyang. However, Goddess Ling Xin's Ten Zhang Light Dust wrapped around the blade and stopped in front of Ying Feiyang's neck.
However, the Star Ji Sword in Ying Feiyang's hand stabbed towards Goddess Ling Xin's chest. Fortunately, the other end of the Ten Zhang Light Dust was wrapped into a shield and blocked the unexpected sword. However, Goddess Ling Xin looked as if she had been stabbed, looking pitiful.
Seeing her appearance, Ji Yaoyue was even more unhappy. She said coldly, "Even if you want to act coquettishly, you have to find the right person first. Look carefully, is he Ying Feiyang?"
"Hmm?" Celestial Maiden Ling Xin was startled awake by her words. She sized up the person before her. Although his face was the same as Ying Feiyang's, his temperament was completely different. There was a cold and ruthless aura hidden within it, as if there was a monster hiding in his body. It made people feel extremely uncomfortable. Thinking of Ying Feiyang's condition, she immediately understood. "No, you are not him. You are … Yaksha?"
That's right. The person in front of her was Ying Feiyang's inner demon, which was born from the Yaksha Heavenly Book. Therefore, she had to rearrange the situation.
Ji Yaoyue's two knives attacked Goddess Ling Xin and Yaksha King respectively. However, Xue Wanlu and Goddess Ling Xin blocked each of the knives. Yaksha, who was blocked by Goddess Ling Xin, pointed his Star Ji Sword at Goddess Ling Xin and stabbed towards Xue Wanlu.
Four people, four thoughts, six weapons, all tangled with each other. How could the word "chaos" describe it …
Just like that, the strange atmosphere was in a stalemate for a moment. It was unknown who took the lead, but it seemed to have received the unanimous approval of the others. They cooperated and activated their martial arts. There was a shocking explosion, and the four of them pulled back their weapons. They used the force of the collision to escape.
However, the cold atmosphere did not break because of this. Instead, when they looked at each other, the atmosphere became even more tense. The four of them faced each other, their thoughts changing unpredictably.
Kill who? Protect who? Who would join hands with who? Who would make a move against who? The chaotic relationship affected complicated emotions. The silent atmosphere was the calm before the storm.
In the end, Ji Yaoyue was the first to break the stalemate. She said to Xue Wanlu with a hint of mockery, "Blood Path Master, is that spear attack enough for you to repay the favor?"
Xue Wanlu gritted his teeth and said, "I have repaid the favor, but I have yet to take revenge. I have also remembered Princess Tian Xiang. After I obtain the Heavenly Book, I will definitely settle the score with you!"
"Since you have repaid enough, it is time for you to do what you have to do … How about choosing her first?" Ji Yaoyue pointed her saber at Ling Xin, as if she was asking for the other two's opinion. However, the sharp saber intent was already closing in on Ling Xin.
Xue Wanlu stood with his spear in hand. He did not say anything, but his expression gradually darkened. The Yaksha King's sharp eyes locked onto Ling Xin, and a cold light flashed in them.
"It seems that we have reached a consensus!" Ji Yaoyue smiled coldly. She lowered her waist and bent her legs, ready to attack.
The Holy Daughter could not help but feel a chill in her heart. Xue Wanlu was the enemy, and although the Yaksha King's motives were unclear, he had also attacked her. Now that the three of them had joined hands, the situation had changed in the blink of an eye. She would become the target of their attacks. A drop of cold sweat rolled down Ling Xin's smooth forehead.
But at this moment, the earth suddenly shook. There was a loud hissing sound, and the snake tide seemed to be boiling. Thousands of snakes spared no effort in hissing in the same direction.
In the direction that the snakes were heading, all the trees were destroyed, and dust and smoke rose into the air. What followed was an ear-piercing sound of scales scraping against each other.
"They're here!" Ling Xin's expression brightened, and a smile appeared on her face as if she had relaxed. "It would be difficult for me to fight against the three of you alone. Fortunately, the snakes are moving together, and the Python God has returned. My reinforcements have also arrived."
As soon as she finished speaking, the trees beside her were uprooted, and the earth was thrown into the air. An enormous creature with an oppressive aura rushed over!
"Mahoraga? Danger! " In front of her was a large snake. Its head alone was as tall as a person, and its length was unknown. Each scale was the size of a palm, and the disparity in size made Ji Yaoyue feel pressured. She hurriedly tapped her foot and used the movement technique "Among Flowers" to barely avoid the heavy impact.
"Prison Suppressing King Ming? Just in time? " Xue Wanlu was a battle-hungry person. Whether it was the Prison Suppressing King Ming or the Seven Vicious Snake Monarchs, they were all famous. But the Asura Daolord had no reason to be afraid. He did not dodge, and instead gathered his true energy. In an instant, a mighty and ferocious Asura Idol appeared behind him, and his spear turned into a blood-red light as he shouted, stabbing at the oncoming giant snake.
"Chi!" The giant snake did not dodge at all, but met the attack head-on.
The spear sank into the giant snake's face, and Xue Wanlu took the brunt of the giant snake's attack head-on. The Asura Idol behind him was instantly shattered, and Xue Wanlu felt as if his organs were being displaced. Then, his feet loosened, and he was pushed back by the giant snake.
"What a beast!" Xue Wanlu found it difficult to match the giant snake's power. With the huge difference in size, he was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. But the courage in his heart was aroused, and he did not advance. Instead, he retreated, and the spear that had stabbed into the snake's face sank even deeper.
The giant snake was in pain, and it let out a mournful howl. It twisted its body and swung its tail.
"Pa! Pa! Pa! " The giant snake's tail brought with it great destructive power. Thick trees were easily broken like chopsticks, and every time it fell, it left a deep ditch. In the blink of an eye, the surroundings were in a mess.
Ji Yaoyue and the Yaksha King did not have Xue Wanlu's brute strength to fight the giant beast head-on, so they ran far away.
"Strange? Why doesn't the Prison King Ming transform into human form to fight? " Angel Ling Xin was puzzled. Although the giant snake's body was more powerful and destructive, it was still better to transform into human form to fight with people. Only then could it use the Prison King Ming's superior techniques.
While she was puzzled, she suddenly felt her vision go black, and her vision was blocked. She looked up and saw the snake's tail smashing down on her head, without distinguishing between friend and foe!
Angel Ling Xin did not expect this to happen, and quickly retreated. But her reaction was too slow, and her body was swept by the tip of the tail. Instantly, she felt as if a hammer had hit her chest, and her blood boiled.
Angel Ling Xin forced down the blood that had rushed to her throat and shouted, "Prison King Ming, please calm down. I am Angel Ling Xin!"
Unfortunately, the Prison King Ming's arrival did not end the chaos. Instead, it became more and more chaotic. No matter how the Angel called out, the giant snake acted as if it did not hear her. It twisted its giant body even more violently, attacking without distinguishing between friend and foe.
The one who suffered the most was Xue Wanlu. His Destruction Spear pierced into the giant snake's flesh, and he gripped the spear handle with both hands. His body was swung up and down by the snake's head.
Even though his body was strong, he could not bear it after a dozen times. He suddenly pulled out his spear and stepped on the snake's head, wanting to retreat.
But the giant snake did not give him the chance. It suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and the snake's head quickly moved forward, catching Xue Wanlu in one bite.
"Oh no!" No matter how brave Xue Wanlu was, he was shocked when he entered the snake's mouth. He quickly stretched out his foot to stop the giant snake's tongue from swallowing him whole.
An indescribable stench came from the snake's mouth, and he almost fainted on the spot. After taking a deep breath, he raised the Destruction Spear and stopped the giant snake's closed mouth.
The giant snake was in even more pain when its upper jaw was stopped, but it could not howl. After twisting a few times, it sped up again, leaving everyone behind, and quickly crawled in the direction of Snake Mountain.
"King Ming, please wait a moment!"
Angel Ling Xin didn't understand what had happened to the Prison-Protector Acalanatha, but she was worried about his condition, and she didn't want to be separated from him. She immediately cast a spell, and the "Ten Zhang Light Dust" expanded with the wind, firmly binding the giant snake's body. Angel Ling Xin was dragged by the giant snake like a kite.
One snake and two people rose and fell just like this as they swiftly ascended the mountain. Everywhere the enormous snake passed, the other groups of snakes would disperse like tidewater and respectfully open up a path. In the end, the enormous figure entered a cave on the mountain, and like a stone thrown into the sea, there was no more movement.
"What … is going on?"
Ji Yaoyue had been avoiding the giant snake's indiscriminate attacks, so she did not dare to go forward. At this time, she was also confused. After a moment of hesitation, she tiptoed and followed far behind, wanting to find out what was going on.
However, as soon as she stepped into Coiled Snake Mountain, the snakes that had just retreated to make way for her saw Ji Yaoyue approaching. As if their territory had been invaded, they gathered again and hissed at her in unison, as if they were facing a great enemy.
After all, Ji Yaoyue was a woman. She had an instinctive dislike for these cold, sticky, and numerous snakes. She could not help but stop in her tracks. Just as she was hesitating whether or not to follow, she heard a gloomy voice from behind.
"The snake cave is complicated, and there are countless poisonous snakes. If you rush in recklessly, I'm afraid you will not be able to return." The Yaksha King followed at a moderate speed, and suddenly reminded her. His expression did not change, as if he did not care that Ji Yaoyue had attacked him earlier.
Ji Yaoyue was wary of him, and after keeping a subtle distance, she could not help but laugh. "I'm really not used to talking to me with this face."
"When you raised your sword to attack me just now, I didn't see you not being used to it."
"That's what I'm used to. But you don't seem to mind. This is similar to him." Ji Yaoyue chuckled and went straight to the point. "You're reminding me not because you're kind enough to repay evil with good. Speak your mind. What are your plans?"
The Yaksha King said frankly, "You and I both want to kill Mahoraga. Since we have the same goal, why don't we work together? If we work together, killing Mahoraga will be as easy as turning over our hands. "
"Working together? That's not impossible." Ji Yaoyue had also guessed his intentions. "But aren't you being too confident? Let's not talk about how fierce and powerful the snake is. Let's talk about the snake cave in front of us. Just as you said, this cave is a maze filled with venomous snakes. Can you find Mahoraga's whereabouts inside?"
The Yaksha King shook his head. "It's not easy to enter the snake cave to find him, but there is a way to lure him out."
"Can you do it?" Ji Yaoyue asked.
"You can do it! Or rather, Granny Qianxiu can do it. " The Yaksha King pointed at Ji Yaoyue and said seriously, "Mahoraga is in a special situation right now. If you want to kill him, this is a once-in-a-century opportunity. If you want to lure him out of his cave, only your Granny Qianxiu can do it!"
