The giant snake entered the snake cave, but its speed didn't slow down at all. It continued to twist and turn in the dark cave. Goddess Ling Xin was the only one who didn't get thrown out because she was holding on to the Ten Foot Light Dust. However, she was already dizzy and couldn't tell which direction she was going.
"Swish — la —" Accompanied by a series of ear-piercing screeches, the giant snake suddenly stopped. Goddess Ling Xin was thrown to the ground by the inertia, and she trembled all the way. She felt as if her bones were about to fall apart, and she almost vomited from dizziness.
Before she could recover, she saw the large snake open its mouth as if it was sneezing. It finally spat out Xue Wanlu who was stuck in its mouth. Xue Wanlu, who was covered in blood, smashed towards her.
The goddess quickly dodged and watched as Xue Wanlu rolled a few times on the ground like a gourd before hitting the wall.
Xue Wanlu's vision darkened, and he struggled to get up with his spear. He spat out a mouthful of blood-stained saliva, and his vision gradually recovered. "What a … long worm …"
The snake cave was pitch black, and only the faint fluorescence of the moss could be seen. Xue Wanlu's true energy gathered in his eyes, and he used his night vision to barely make out the outline of his surroundings. He was on guard against the giant snake's next attack, but he saw that the giant snake completely ignored him and crawled toward a patch of fluorescent grass.
Under Xue Wanlu's gaze, it bit down on a bunch of fluorescent grass. The fluorescent grass seemed to have the ability to stop bleeding, and the blood in the giant snake's mouth quickly stopped. Then, the giant snake ignored the two of them, coiled up, and went to sleep.
"You … dare to look down on me?" Xue Wanlu was shocked to see the giant snake ignore him, and then he was furious.
"Path Master Xue, wait!" Goddess Ling Xin quickly blocked his way.
。
You want to join forces with it? "Xue Wanlu saw her come forward, and his eyes narrowed, and his killing intent surged.
"Hiss!" At this time, the giant snake suddenly raised its head and spat out its scarlet tongue at Xue Wanlu, as if it was going to swallow someone.
"Path Master Xue, calm down. It doesn't differentiate between friend and foe, so how can I join forces with it? You have to think carefully. If we fight now, neither of us will benefit!" Goddess Ling Xin shook her head.
Xue Wanlu was slightly startled. When the giant snake attacked, it did not differentiate between friend and foe. Furthermore, he had the advantage in the snake cave. If he continued to fight, he had no chance of winning. Just now, his eyes were bloodshot and his blood was boiling. Now that he heard the words of the goddess, he gradually calmed down. He put away his spear and his killing intent disappeared. "Forget it. It's just a stupid worm. It's not worth it for me to bother with it."
His murderous aura dissipated, and the giant snake once again lowered its body and closed its eyes.
"Hmm … Could it be …" Seeing that it was sleeping, Goddess Ling had an idea, and she tiptoed toward the giant snake.
"Hey, if you don't let me do it, why are you the one provoking it?" Xue Wanlu couldn't help calling out.
Goddess Ling Xin raised her finger and shushed him. She then approached the giant snake and observed it for a while. She even stretched out her hand to touch the scales of the giant snake. However, the giant snake did not move at all. It was not until the goddess had seen enough that she walked back and muttered to herself, "As expected."
"As expected what? This stinky snake has been a prison guard for a hundred years. Has he really gone crazy? "Xue Wanlu sneered.
"Of course not." The goddess frowned at Xue Wanlu's words, and then sighed. "There's no harm in telling you. According to the Buddhist scriptures, Mahoraga was originally a deaf python, but because of his deafness, he did not have the heart to do evil. Thus, he was able to redeem himself and get rid of his snake body. He was reborn and became a god."
Xue Wanlu said mockingly, "Stupid snakes have stupid luck. Is that what you mean?"
The goddess ignored Xue Wanlu's interruption and continued as if she didn't hear him. "However, because of the nature of his race, every hundred years, he will return to his snake body and return to the snake cave to finish molting. During this time, he will return to his deafness. That's why when he was involved in our battle, he attacked us without distinguishing between friend and foe. According to my observations, he will be molting in a few days and needs to rest to recover his strength. As long as we don't provoke him and don't show any hostility, he won't be our enemy. "
After the goddess's explanation, Xue Wanlu finally understood. He thought to himself, Humph, he sure is sleeping well. But if I can get rid of him while he is sleeping …
It was good to turn back into a giant snake. His innate animal instincts had also returned. As soon as Xue Wanlu had this thought, he saw the giant snake's eyelids open a slit again. Its long and narrow pupils were staring at him, making him shiver. He hurriedly dispersed the thought.
The giant snake then closed its eyes again, but the cold-blooded eyes of a cold-blooded animal still had a cold and moist feeling in Xue Wanlu's heart. For a moment, he felt as if there were countless little snakes sticking out their tongues from his collar and licking his neck. It was very uncomfortable.
Xue Wanlu naturally didn't want to admit that he was scared just now, so he attributed it to the dark and gloomy environment. He said to himself, "This kind of darkness is really depressing!"
As he said this, he used the Shura Fire Force. The head of the Destruction Spear lit up like a big torch, dispersing the surrounding darkness.
As the fire lit up, Ling Xin pointed behind her and said in surprise, "Hmm? Master Xue, look over there. What is that? "
Although they had used night vision, the effect was limited, and the two of them had been focused on the giant snake, so they didn't pay attention to anything else. Now that they had lit up the fire, they could see further, and they could see more clearly.
This place was about the center of the snake cave, and it was as wide as a square. The giant snake was sleeping here, but it only occupied a corner.
All the snake tunnels that extended in all directions converged here. There were dozens of exits, and outside each tunnel was densely packed with small snakes. The small snakes hissed, but none of them dared to enter, as if this was a forbidden area that they were not allowed to set foot in.
The direction Ling Xin was pointing at was the center of the plaza, where there was an altar built by a group of people.
Xue Wanlu and Ling Xin looked at each other, and they knew there must be a secret, so they walked towards the altar together.
The altar was simple and crude, and no one knew how many years it had been abandoned. Damp moss covered the steps of the altar, and under the light of the fire, it gave off a strange, dark green glow.
The altar wasn't big, and there was only a high platform in the center. On both sides, there were two totem pillars that were as tall as a person. The two of them quickly looked around, but they didn't see any clues.
"What kind of god is being worshiped?" Xue Wanlu wanted to take a closer look at the totem pillars, but the moss on them was too thick, so he couldn't see clearly. He saw that the top of the pillars was carved in the shape of a brazier, which could be used to light a fire. Xue Wanlu wanted to see if the brazier could still be lit, so he could see more clearly. Immediately, the blood spear shook, and two balls of fire flew from the spear to the totem pillars.
The totem pillars were lit up with a touch, and the flames burned from the top of the pillars, dancing wildly and lighting up half of the square. The surrounding snakes seemed to be afraid of the light, and they all shrank back.
