As they went deeper into the giant door, the strange feeling grew stronger. This made Ye Chen and the Patriarch become more cautious.
The two of them walked forward carefully. Ye Chen released his sense of perception. As long as there was any movement, he would react immediately.
"Hiss hiss hiss."
Suddenly, a hissing sound came from the darkness. This sound was extremely strange. It went straight to the heart and made people uneasy.
"Patriarch, guard the passage here. I'll go ahead and explore!" Ye Chen said.
"Fellow Ye, let's go together. This place isn't safe," the Patriarch said.
Ye Chen shook his head slightly. He let the Patriarch stay and went ahead by himself.
Walking in the dark passage, Ye Chen was on full alert.
"Hiss hiss hiss!"
The strange noises continued. Ye Chen even sensed that something was right next to him, but he had yet to notice it.
The Immortal-Slaying Flying Dagger appeared in his hands. He had already realized that danger was lurking around him and had even locked onto his position.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, the ground shook and a furious roar startled the two.
"Ye Chen, Ye Chen!" The Patriarch shouted but there was no response. Following that, heaven and earth shook and the entire space fell into a tremor as if it was being shaken by something huge.
The Patriarch was shocked and wanted to go over to help, but he soon saw the figure in the darkness gradually appear.
It was a python as tall as a mountain. This python was extremely powerful. It shook its position and instantly stirred up the wind and clouds, preventing the Patriarch from approaching.
"This is Ye Chen!"
The Patriarch shouted Ye Chen's name. He was very nervous. The python in front of him was not only huge but also contained powerful Demonic Energy. It was obvious that this python had been absorbing Demonic Energy here for a long time. Its cultivation base must be very high.
"Patriarch, get out of the way!"
Suddenly, Ye Chen's voice sounded. The Patriarch looked forward in shock and found that he was surrounded by the python's body. He was about to fall into the python's entanglement.
Once the python was entangled, it was a matter of life and death.
The Patriarch was in danger. Ye Chen flew out and the Immortal-Slaying Flying Dagger kept cutting the python's body. However, the python's scales were so hard that even the Immortal-Slaying Flying Dagger could not pierce through.
"Underworld Sword!"
The Patriarch hurriedly took out the Underworld Sword. The Underworld Sword Qi soared into the sky and covered the ground.
"Kill!"
Ye Chen attacked at the same time. The Immortal-Slaying Flying Saber turned into a stream of light and attacked the giant python.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Sword Qi filled the air, and the giant python's body kept shaking. Then, its tail also left the Patriarch's side.
The Old Ancestor had temporarily resolved the situation, but the giant python would not give up so easily.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!
Suddenly, lightning flashed in the darkness. Ye Chen suddenly saw that the lightning was coming from the Giant Python's eyes. He sensed that the power was not inferior to the Demon Lord at all.
"Dodge!"
Ye Chen quickly grabbed the Patriarch's shoulder and flew away.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Everywhere the lightning passed, not even a blade of grass grew. It was extremely terrifying!
"This!"
The old ancestor turned pale with fright. This kind of power was so terrifying that even ordinary Demon Masters couldn't do it.
"Go!"
Ye Chen walked out decisively and left with the patriarch.
The two of them walked out of the Land of the Devils and finally breathed in fresh air.
"D * mn, fellow Ye Chen, what is that thing? It's so powerful?" the Patriarch asked while panting.
Ye Chen shook his head slightly. He did not have any detailed information about this giant python, but from the situation of the fight, this giant python must have absorbed an unknown amount of pure Pandora Demon Energy after living in this vein for many years. Its current cultivation base was terrifying, and it was close to the Tribulation Stage.
Such a demon was not so easy to deal with. Otherwise, the Demon Tribe would not have let it guard the Spiritual Realm Path.
"Patriarch, how are you?" Ye Chen asked.
The Patriarch put away the Underworld Sword, looked at his body, and said with a smile, "Of course I'm fine. I'm the Patriarch of Underworld. Would I be hurt by a beast?"
"Ha, that's good." Seeing that the Patriarch was fine, Ye Chen was slightly relieved.
At the same time, he began to think of a way to deal with it. Although this place was guarded by such a fierce beast, Ye Chen was extremely determined to enter the Heart of the Spiritual Realm. Therefore, no matter what difficulties there were, he would continue forward.
"Let's leave first and come back after resting!" Ye Chen said.
"Alright!"
The two of them left the mountain together.
They entered a small city in Yu Province to rest.
In this small tavern, there were many explorers. They were all adventurers, and all of them were cultivators. Moreover, their cultivation bases were not low.
"Have you guys heard that there's a secret cave in the mountain range of Yu Province? There's a thousand-year-old python living in it. I heard that if you obtain the python's gallbladder, you can directly ascend to the Immortal Realm!"
"Is that true? Is it a rumor?"
"It's not a rumor. There's real evidence."
Ye Chen and the Patriarch sat at the side. When they heard this, they understood that these people were talking about the place they went to investigate today.
Through their conversation, Ye Chen learned that these people wanted to find out what was going on.
"Ascend to the Immortal Realm?"
Ye Chen shook his head secretly. He felt that this was too absurd.
He glanced at the other party's cultivation base. The highest was only at the beginner Void Refinement stage. Although this was considered an extremely high cultivation base among explorers, it was naturally not enough to fight against the python.
"Clack, clack, clack!"
He walked over and smiled at the crowd.
"Hmm?"
The crowd looked at Ye Chen with a puzzled expression.
"Kid, what are you trying to do?" those people asked.
"I'm just trying to save your lives," Ye Chen said.
"Save our lives? What do you mean by that? Are we in danger?" The crowd was puzzled.
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "Are you guys going to the secret cave to catch the snake?"
Hearing this, everyone's heart trembled. It seemed that this kid had heard their previous discussion. However, they did not panic. After all, they had encountered all kinds of things in this line of work.
"Kid, this has nothing to do with you. Don't be a busybody," one of them said.
"I think you're just going to die in vain!"
"What did you say?"
Everyone looked at Ye Chen angrily. All of them were experts who had lived near this forest for many years. They relied on the various goods and natural treasures in the forest to survive. Someone actually said that they were going to die in vain. This was an insult to their professional abilities and at the same time a provocation.
"Hehe, that's all I have to say. Think about it yourself!"
"Hmph, get lost now, or I'll kill you!"
Seeing that everyone was a slave, Ye Chen left with a smile.
When he returned to his seat, the Patriarch was already drinking.
"Fellow Ye, why are you doing this?" the Patriarch asked.
"Ha, these useless things want to explore the snake's cave. I'm just reminding them out of goodwill, but I don't think they'll listen."
"Good plan. Let these b * stards explore and we'll reap the benefits!"
Ye Chen and the Patriarch smiled and exchanged glances. They already understood.
