It had been a long time since Guarba received such a fatal warning.
Hence, he immediately ignored the blood-red glowing sphere in front of him.
Shifting half his body to the side, Guarba attempted to lock onto the Gundazan with his massive blood eye. He was going to use his mightiest attack to strangle this threat in its cradle!
Instead, before the Gundazan spoke, he had already carved out two deep gashes on his palms. One could even see the ghastly white bones of his palms.
After uttering his final word, he pressed his bleeding palms against the eyes of the malevolent Coiled Serpent Sculpture!
Regardless of height, exquisiteness or grandeur, this Coiled Serpent Sculpture couldn't be compared to the colossus outside the foggy region. Sheyan and the majority of the Ndipaya barbarians only knew that the greatest function of this sculpture was to open the door to the Sun Altar.
Yet judging from the Gundazan's stance, this sculpture should be concealing a tremendous secret. A secret that could even kill the incomparably mighty Guarba. A chill welled up in Guarba's heart. After all, he was the High Priest of the Ndipaya tribe, and knew that the Coiled Serpent Tribe possessed a heaven-shaking secret! Instead, Guarba assumed that this secret had vanished with the death of the old Gundazan. Never did he expect this secret still remained!
One second passed.
Three seconds passed.
Five seconds passed.
Everyone awkwardly glanced at each other. After coming into contact with the Gundazan's blood and incantation, the Coiled Serpent Sculpture actually....
Nothing happened!!!!!!
Guarba was dumbstruck, Sheyan was dumbstruck, and even the Gundazan himself was stunned.
"Could it be that due to years of neglect, the mechanism malfunctioned?" Sheyan couldn't help guessing. However, he immediately overturned his own conjecture.
"No, impossible. This mechanism is the only gateway to the 'Stairway of the Sun'. It must be extremely sturdy and durable. Even if all the other mechanisms of the Ndipaya tribe malfunctioned, this one would definitely be the last to fail!"
Although the battlefield had sunk into an awkward awkward silence, Guarba was the first to react. After all, the fatal threat he felt just now couldn't be faked.
Instantly, one could see the Gundazan's figure reflected in the massive blood eye on his shoulder. Then, in that instant, it was as if a thousand suns had bloomed in this fiery plaza! That kind of brightness, that kind of surging heat that poured out, all converged on an extremely thin and bright ray of light! This beam of concentrated sunlight shot out from the pupil of the gigantic eye, directly piercing through the body of the Gundazan that was sprawled on top of the coiled serpent statue. A ghastly deep hole was burnt into its flesh and blood, as an unbearable stench of burnt flesh wafted into the air! The finger-thick radiance did not dissipate and lasted for less than a second, completely relying on its frightening temperature and astonishing speed to attack the enemy. After the radiance flashed, a bloody hole the size of a ping pong ball appeared on the Gundazan's sturdy back muscles. Faint dust was even kicked up, and from the bloody hole, one could see the white clouds and blue sky.
Yet strangely, due to the terrifyingly high temperature of the radiance, the flesh it passed through was instantly incinerated into ashes. Even the penetrating wound was scorched black, and the flesh was scalded to death. For a moment, blood couldn't even gush out! Cruelly speaking, the flesh and organs near the bloody hole had been heated to the point of being 80 to 80% cooked. Not only that, the bizarre gigantic eye possessed an exceedingly tyrannical MP, and possessed the ability to directly tear apart one's soul.
The Gundazan stood sluggishly for a brief moment, his face revealing an expression of agony, despair, and despair. Finally, he spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground. This time, be it his body or mind, he had suffered a fatal blow!
This Coiled Serpent subtribe leader was indeed extremely weak. Ignoring the fact that his main personality had been tightly suppressed in the depths of his sea of consciousness for so many years, he finally revealed his identity as a hidden BOSS. He wanted to rely on the secret passed down from generation to generation to settle the score. Instead, he miserably encountered such a shameful matter where that secret was merely a way to appease him!
Nevertheless, the Gundazan's actions weren't without effect.
At least to Hecaosi, the Gundazan's actions had instantly diverted the majority of Guarba's attention. Hence, the blood red radiance he unleashed with all his might had already arrived before Guarba. Abruptly, it exploded, as massive amounts of blood red liquid splashed out in all directions. Most of the liquid splashed onto the gigantic eye on Guarba's body.
Throughout the entire battle, Guarba instantly sensed the might of Hecaosi's strike. After being tainted by the blood-red glowing sphere, an ice-cold numbing sensation gradually diffused throughout his body. Not only that, as the incomparably sinister gigantic eye on his torso gradually corroded away, Guarba rapidly lost his vision as he felt his entire body gradually shrouded in absolute darkness!
At this moment, Guarba finally realized that the radiance of the blood red radiance was merely a façade. Instead, it was filled with an incomparably viscous liquid; probably the venom secreted by that parasite. When it splashed onto the ground, it could even dissolve sand and rocks, what more flesh and blood?
In a flash, terrifying creaking noises echoed out. Guarba appeared as though he was splashed with sulfuric acid, as his facial muscles and outer layer of fur were incessantly corroded away. Even his tightly shut eyes were splashed with the liquid of the blood red sphere. Parts of his face were even exposed to the ghastly white bones!
Even the mighty Guarba couldn't help but drown in the agony of having his nerves devoured one by one, as he screamed miserably. At this moment, Hecaosi had already pulled out a short spear. This short spear was shaped like a serpent, and when Hecaosi gripped it in his hand, an eerie chill seemed to congeal around him.
Never ever forget!! Hecaosi was an elder of the Coiled Serpent subtribe, an expert in long range combat. His long range combat prowess was undoubtedly exceedingly formidable! After pulling out his short spear, Hecaosi directly flung it out. Instantly, an ear-piercing ripping sound reverberated through the air.
At present, Guarba didn't possess the ability to evade the serpent spear, and was directly impaled into his chest! Like an electric drill, the serpent spear frantically revolved around Guarba's chest, blasting out copious amounts of flesh and blood. Then, it forcibly drilled a horrifying hole through Guarba's chest.
Amidst the raging blood, Guarba roared wildly as he gripped the tail of the serpent spear. Then, the bizarre blood red eye on his right shoulder inflated rapidly like an inflated balloon, before exploding with a boom!!!
At the instance of that gigantic eye exploding, even the distant Sheyan felt an intense illusion – as though time had stopped in this world.
Following that, he realized that time hadn't stopped, but rather, all his senses had been sealed off. Sight, hearing, taste, touch, smell, and even his indescribable intuition had been thoroughly paralyzed. Hence, although the world he was in still existed, it was no different from non-existence.
When Sheyan's vision fully recovered, he coincidentally witnessed Guarba closing in. Then, he gouged out Hecaosi's heart, before greedily munching on it. Blood trickled down from the corners of his lips, as the scene was exceptionally gory.
At present, Guarba was in an exceedingly wretched state. That massive blood eye on the right side of his body had vanished without a trace. What was left was a mangled pit of flesh and blood. Within the pit, thick blood vessels and nerves were strewn in a disorderly fashion. Unknown fluids were still flowing out from them, while deep holes were corroded into his body surface. In some places, one could even see his ghastly white bones.
After devouring Hecaosi's heart, Guarba seemed to be unsatisfied. Noticing that the Gundazan beneath the coiled serpent statue was still breathing, Guarba directly strode towards him with heavy steps. His movements were somewhat staggered, and every step he took would leave a deep watermark. It was as though his bodily fluids and lymph fluids were desperately leaking out.
As Guarba's heavy breaths approached the Gundazan, he suddenly sensed something amiss. Turning around, he noticed a pair of incisive eyes staring at him. In this instant, Guarba felt a strange sensation in his heart, as though that pair of eyes had been staring at him for a long time.
"Who, are, you?"
The owner of that pair of eyes slowly crawled out from the pile of corpses. He appeared to be in a rather sorry state, and was drenched in blood. However, his expression was calm and composed, as if everything that had happened was within his expectations.
Guarba disliked the expression on this person's face. Normally, he enjoyed using such an expression to look at others, as though he was in control of their life and death. Yet to be treated in such a manner, it was as clear as the difference between killing and being killed.
Hence, Guarba took a step forward and panted heavily. He could tell this person was an outsider, but his strength was only comparable to an ordinary tribal warrior. During the heyday of the Ndipaya Empire, there were at least 500,000 such warriors! Even though Guarba's forces had declined to this day, he still had over 200 such warriors under his command.
Therefore, in Guarba's eyes, this abrupt appearance of Sheyan was nothing but an ant. An ant through and through! (To be continued.) If you like this work, I welcome you to donate your recommendation votes or monthly votes to me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
