A Countercharge
Blood Python Desolate Domain
In this primeval forest, one could see huge pythons that were as thick as buckets and over a hundred feet long. These pythons basically did not have any intelligence. However, they possessed the power of Dou Dan Realm, Eternal Life Realm and even Law Phase Realm. Some of them were hanging high up on the branches of the huge trees. Their ice-cold eyes were motionlessly staring in a certain direction, as if they were waiting for the arrival of their prey. Some of them were roaming in the forest like guards guarding their territory.
"In the place where I was, the demonic beasts had the ability to take human form and gain intelligence before reaching Dou Dan Realm. These pythons may be strong, but they are muddle-headed. I am afraid that they will only gain intelligence after breaking through to the Creator Realm."
"Senior Ning is right. Our Snake Clan is the most difficult to gain intelligence among the thousands of clans. Perhaps we are born this way. According to the legends, the ancestor of the Blood Python Clan was a small snake that cultivated to the Nine Calamity Creator Realm. He finally broke through the bottleneck and ascended to the Heavens. That was how the bloodline of the Blood Python Clan improved. After that, each of our clansmen was born with intelligence, just like the Human Clan."
She Yanxin said respectfully.
Tens of thousands of pythons retreated wherever Ning Qi and his group passed. Although they did not have intelligence, they could feel the royal aura from She Yanxin and the others.
Soon, after passing through the primeval forest, they saw a huge city that looked like an ancient giant beast in the mountain range.
"Senior Ning, that is the Blood Python City. When I came out last time, I have confirmed that there were fifty clansmen who had changed their temperament. I wonder if there were any changes this time."
She Yanxin's eyes flashed with worry.
"Your Blood Python Clan should have another Nine Calamity Creator besides the Clan Leader. However, I can only feel the aura of one Nine Calamity Creator. Where is the other one?"
Ning Qi said faintly.
A trace of hesitation flashed in Snake Flame Heart's eyes, as if she was making a very important decision. Seeing this, Hu Chengzi could not help but mock, "You don't have to say it if you don't want to!"
"Senior Ning, our Blood Mantis Tribe does indeed have two Venerable Pythons. The other one is currently in the ecdysis stage and is personally suppressed by the Patriarch in the blood pool. During this period of time, Venerable Python seems to be dead. Even if an enemy arrives here, she will not be able to wake up. This information is only known by the upper echelons of our Blood Mantis Tribe. We are afraid that if news of this spreads, the enemies of our Blood Mantis Tribe will take the opportunity to seek revenge. However, I do not know if Venerable Python has already been parasitized by the Soul Devouring Insects …"
She Yanxin said in a low voice.
"A Venerable Python has entered the ecdysis stage? Your Blood-maned Clan has offended a lot of enemies. Normally, with two Venerable Pythons around, no one would dare to come and seek revenge. If this news were to spread, I can guarantee that in less than a month, the entire Blood-maned Desolate Domain would be flattened. "
Hu Cheng exclaimed.
"Blood pool. Oh, I see it."
Ning Qi nodded. His Divine Consciousness entered the huge city and he did find an extremely cold place. There was a huge pool there, and the water inside was red. However, there was no smell of blood. Obviously, it was not real blood. In the depths of the water, there was a huge shadow looming. It should be Lord Python who had entered the ecdysis period.
"Senior Ning, shall we enter the city?"
She Yanxin asked.
"Yes."
Ning Qi nodded.
With She Yanxin leading the way, entering the Blood Python City was very smooth. When the cultivators of the Python Clan who were guarding the city saw She Yanxin and the others, their arrogant and domineering faces immediately turned into respectful expressions. The duties of guarding the city were basically done by the snake cultivators of various clans. The Blood-mantis Tribe was only responsible for cultivation. A few of the younger generation would volunteer to become the guards of the elders of the tribe, just to receive guidance from the elders at any time. After all, there were only three hundred people in the Blood-mantis Tribe. However, there were more than a hundred thousand snake cultivators in this huge city! There were even quite a number of human cultivators.
After entering the city, as long as the cultivators saw She Yanxin and the others, their eyes would be filled with respect. Along the way, everyone automatically made way for them. No one dared to come within three zhang of Ning Qi and the others!
"Senior Ning, do you want to go to my residence first?"
She Yanxin asked.
"Go directly to the place where your patriarch lives. Also, gather your clansmen. I want to see how many of them have been parasitized by the Soul Devouring Worms."
Ning Qi said.
"Yes!"
She Yanxin nodded.
Under She Yanxin's lead, the group soon arrived at the inner city where the Blood-mantis Tribe lived. Ordinary cultivators were not qualified to enter this place. After verifying She Yanxin's identity, the guards of the inner city let them in. When they looked at Ning Qi and the others coldly, a strange look flashed through their eyes.
"Those two guards have also been parasitized by the Soul Devouring Worms."
Ning Qi said lightly.
"Even they …"
She Yanxin's face turned ugly. It seemed that the Soul Devouring Worms did not only parasitize the Blood-mantis Tribe. The other snake cultivators had also become their targets.
"Hey, cousin Wu Ming, uncle Yan Xin, why did you suddenly return to the inner city?"
A group of cultivators came from the opposite side. The leader had long and narrow eyes. Although he was in human form, his face looked like a snake's face.
This person's aura was deep and profound, much stronger than She Wu Ming's. It was comparable to She Yanxin's, and even slightly stronger.
"Senior Ning, this person is the patriarch's son. She Wuxue, has he also been parasitized by the Soul Devouring Worms?"
She Yanxin ignored the other and looked at Ning Qi and transmitted her voice.
"Yes."
Ning Qi nodded lightly.
Seeing this, She Yanxin suddenly had an idea. He smiled at She Wuxue and said, "Wuxue, this time something big happened in the Despair Land of Death. I have an important news to announce. Can Wuxue help gather all the clansmen in the Blood Python City and bring them to the holy land of the clan?"
"Important news?"
She Wuxue's eyes flashed with suspicion. He glanced at Ning Qi and Hu Cheng, smiled and said to She Yanxin, "It's nothing."
"Then I'll trouble Wuxue."
She Yanxin nodded with a smile.
She Wuxue gave Ning Qi a deep look, then turned around and left with the other cultivators. Under She Yanxin's guidance, Ning Qi and the others arrived at the holy land of the Blood Python clan. From time to time, there would be cultivators of the clan breaking through the air. Clearly, She Wuxue's reputation in the clan was very high. In just half an hour, all the cultivators of the clan had reached the holy land. At this time, a middle-aged cultivator appeared above everyone. When She Yanxin saw him, he subconsciously looked at Ning Qi.
"Patriarch!"
The cultivators of the Blood Python clan saluted the middle-aged man.
"Lord Father, Uncle Yanxin said he has an important announcement."
She Wuxue appeared beside the middle-aged cultivator.
"I also have an important announcement. She Yanxin betrayed the Blood Python clan and colluded with outsiders to harm the clan. Today, I will personally suppress him. I hope everyone will take this as a warning."
The middle-aged cultivator said lightly.
