Chapter 146 Killing the Sky Snake
What happened? I lost consciousness, but when I woke up, I found such a big snake.
Could that guy be the heavenly snake mentioned by the demons?
It seems that Chen Li's strength is really terrifying, he can actually force this guy into this state.
Chen Li turned around and saw that Zheng Yuan had woken up. He quickly shouted, "Are you still going to stay there and watch? If you don't help, we'll both die."
Although he had controlled the Heavenly Snake, the spiritual energy could not last long.
After the Heavenly Snake has dissipated all the spiritual energy, it probably won't make this mistake again.
Zheng Yuan came to his senses, summoned the dagger, and his figure suddenly disappeared.
He was not planning to live off the land. Now he had finally found the opponent's leader, who was a monster that could speak human language. Didn't this mean that the opponent's inner elixir was very precious?
If he could absorb the inner elixir of the Heavenly Snake, wouldn't he be able to break through to the middle stage of the Golden Core?
Faced with Zheng Yuan's disappearance, Chen Li did not think much about it. Instead, he stared at the sky snake not far away with a cold expression, and chopped it off with the black sword in his hand without any hesitation.
When he arrived in front of the Sky Snake, Zheng Yuan was already standing behind it, with the dagger pointed at the Sky Snake.
"Hmph, do you really think I can be dealt with by little guys like you?" The Sky Snake snorted coldly, opened its huge mouth, and wanted to bite Chen Li.
In an instant, severe pain came from behind the heavenly snake, making it suffer terribly.
With a puff, blood gushed out. The Heavenly Snake did not dare to be negligent. It swept its tail around and forced the two men back.
Zheng Yuan took a few steps back and looked at the dagger in his hand. It had become extremely tattered and its spiritual energy had long dissipated.
"It's really scary. It can even absorb spiritual energy." Zheng Yuan said unhappily after seeing this scene.
This is a magical weapon after all, and it was destroyed so easily. It really makes people unhappy.
In comparison, Tianshe was even more unhappy. Who on earth was this guy? Even the black sword in Chen Li's hand couldn't cause any damage to it, but Zheng Yuan broke through its defense so easily.
Those are the scales it is proud of. It really didn't expect Zheng Yuan to have such ability.
Even Chen Li was very surprised. He originally thought that Zheng Yuan had no way of breaking it. Now it seems that he was indeed short-sighted.
Since he was able to become a Jindan-stage cultivator, he must have certain abilities.
"Very good, you have succeeded in angering me. Next time, I will not treat you so gently." The Heavenly Snake stared at them intently, appearing extremely angry.
Zheng Yuan knew that the other party was extremely powerful. His eyes gradually became fierce, and a black aura permeated his entire body.
Tianshe was a little surprised, because the aura emanating from Zheng Yuan was a very pure demonic energy.
And in his hand, a very strange dagger appeared.
The dagger was pitch black without any embellishment, but it exuded a dangerous aura.
Even Chen Li, who was in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, felt that this dagger was very dangerous.
It seemed as if if one was stabbed, one would die on the spot.
"I haven't used my natal spiritual weapon for a long time. I hope you can bring me some joy." Zheng Yuan stared at the sky snake not far away and sneered.
The Heavenly Snake did not dare to delay and quickly rushed towards Zheng Yuan, no longer paying attention to Chen Li.
But Chen Li is not a pushover. Since this guy doesn't intend to pay attention to him, he has to think of a way to get rid of it.
The fight between Zheng Yuan and Tianshe is not as gorgeous as it seems. Every move is extremely deadly. As long as Zheng Yuan seizes the opportunity, he can kill with one blow.
But the Heavenly Snake is not a pushover. It is well aware of the danger of the black dagger and can only use some small tricks to lure Zheng Yuan into revealing his flaws.
On Chen Li's side, he was gathering the surrounding spiritual energy bit by bit.
The black and white spiritual energy transformed into spiritual swords, and every two of them merged into one, their power gradually increased.
As the situation on their side became more and more stalemate, a terrifying spiritual pressure made Tianshe and Zheng Yuan feel the danger.
Zheng Yuan glanced at Chen Li and raised the corner of his mouth. No wonder this guy hadn't made any move. It seemed like he was holding back on a big move.
Tianshe was even more surprised. How come this kid still had other moves that he hadn't used yet?
At this time, the spiritual sword has condensed into a giant spiritual sword.
Moreover, the giant sword exudes a sharp sword intent, which is extremely terrifying just at a glance.
"Get out of the way!" Chen Li looked at Zheng Yuan over there and shouted at him.
Zheng Yuan didn't dare to delay, he turned around and ran without any reluctance at all.
The Sky Snake naturally wanted to run away, but its huge body couldn't leave quickly.
And at the moment Zheng Yuan left, the giant sword had already chopped down.
Boom! The violent sound caused the earth to shake, and the spiritual energy of the Sky Snake formed a huge barrier, blocking the attack of the giant sword.
"Hmph, do you really think I can be killed by you? Don't be naive!" The Heavenly Snake roared, trying to dilute the spiritual energy of the giant sword.
It's a pity that the giant sword formed by the black and white spiritual energy, with the blessing of sword intent, may not be able to be blocked even by a demon beast in the late Jindan stage. With its cultivation at the peak of the middle Jindan stage, how can it withstand this attack.
As the light of the giant sword grew stronger, the Sky Snake found itself unable to cope with it, and the spiritual energy in its body was constantly lost.
The giant sword is getting stronger and stronger, the heavenly snake is getting weaker and weaker, and the ending is already obvious.
Zheng Yuan, who was not far away, saw that the sky snake was still resisting, so he bit his finger, smeared the blood on the dagger, and flew forward suddenly.
With a whoosh, the dagger turned into a stream of light and accurately pierced the body of the sky snake.
The spiritual energy of the heavenly snake that was attacked collapsed in an instant, and the giant sword fell quickly.
Bang! A very deep crack appeared on the ground, and even Zheng Yuan was stunned.
Such a powerful attack still failed to kill the Heavenly Snake.
At this time, the Heavenly Snake was lying on the ground with a weak breath. Although he was not dead, he was not far from death.
"I never thought that I would be killed by two human monks. I won't accept this!" The Heavenly Snake opened its mouth wide, wanting to launch another counterattack against Chen Li and Zheng Yuan.
Unfortunately, before it got close, it fell down again and became a corpse.
Seeing the Sky Snake's spiritual energy dissipate, Chen Li breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally I killed it."
I originally thought that I could kill it easily, but I didn't expect its defense to be so strong. If it weren't for Zheng Yuan's help to delay time, I really wouldn't be able to kill it.
Zheng Yuan took back the dagger and said, "Yeah, I almost died here."
He walked up to the Heavenly Snake and confirmed again and again that this guy was indeed dead.
A man in the early Jindan stage and a man in the middle Jindan stage, the two of them actually killed a monster in the peak middle Jindan stage. If this were to be spread out, it would probably be considered fake.
"So, how do we divide this thing?" Zheng Yuan looked at Chen Li and asked him.
The Heavenly Snake was killed by the two of them together. It was a demon beast at the peak of the middle stage of the Golden Core. Every part of its body was full of treasures, and they didn't know how to divide them.
"Old rules?" Chen Li looked at Zheng Yuan and asked him.
Zheng Yuan did not refuse and nodded in agreement, "Okay, it happens that I need this guy's inner elixir to improve my cultivation."
So the two of them began to decompose the body of the celestial snake. Zheng Yuan took out the inner elixir and put it into the space ring, while Chen Li put the body of the celestial snake into his bag.
Chen Li is still quite excited now. A monster at the peak of the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, which can even speak human language, this kind of monster can definitely help improve his cultivation significantly.
But he was very confused. Logically speaking , there were many powerful people in the Demon World, and even some puppets were in the middle stage of the Golden Core. There should be no shortage of powerful people in the late stage of the Golden Core.
Why could the Sky Snake, a monster at the peak of the middle Jindan stage, become the master of this fortress?
While thinking, Zheng Yuan's voice reached Chen Li's ears: "I say, what is this stone used for?"
"I feel that this might be the key to our leaving here." Chen Li looked at the magic circle made of stones in front of him and explained to Zheng Yuan.
Zheng Yuan was stunned. He didn't expect that he would find a way to leave so quickly.
It seems that following Chen Li can indeed bring a lot of benefits.
"In that case, how do we activate this formation?" Zheng Yuan asked.
This made Chen Li feel helpless. "If I knew, why would I stand here and watch?"
The formation was built by the demons. Neither of them was a so-called formation master and knew nothing about formations.
It is almost impossible to leave by unlocking the formation.
Then Chen Li looked at the blood around him and fell into deep thought.
If this formation was displayed by the Heavenly Snake, can it be activated through its blood?
Thinking about it in his mind, he started to implement it without hesitation.
The blood was condensed through spiritual energy and then flew to the location of the formation over there.
The moment the blood touched the stone, a green light shot up into the sky. What was originally just a pile of broken stones now had a very large crack.
"This crack is the one we were pulled into before!" Zheng Yuan said in shock, breathing a little rapidly.
Chen Li didn't care. Instead, he looked around and said, "My suggestion is, don't leave for now."
"Why?" Zheng Yuan asked.
He really didn't understand. There was clearly an exit and they could leave from this place, so why didn't they leave?
"Since the Sky Snake is dead, there is no threat in this place. Why don't we search it?" Chen Li looked at Zheng Yuan and asked him.
After hearing this, Zheng Yuan reacted quickly. After all, this was the fortress of the Sky Snake. As the master here, it must have a lot of good things.
If I just leave like this, those things will have to be given to others.
"Indeed, then let's search it as quickly as possible." Zheng Yuan said, and walked outside.
Because the ray of light that shot up into the sky just now shattered the top, it is estimated that many monks will head here soon.
If they were slower, they would have to compete with those people for the treasure.
Of course Chen Li thought so too, so after going out, he planned to start looking for those things.
But after going out, Chen Li felt something strange happening inside his body.
The strange light spot actually started to move again at this time, and the direction it was pointing to was not far ahead.
It seems that there should be some treasures in that place.
"Let's go to the front." After Chen Li said that, he ran towards the door in front.
Zheng Yuan did not dare to neglect it because he believed in Chen Li's vision. Since he said to go to the front, there must be treasures there.
When they arrived here, they found that the door was sealed.
The seal looks very strong, but surprisingly, it is actually weakening little by little.
Zheng Yuan touched his chin and guessed, "If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the room of the celestial snake."
At present, the Heavenly Serpent has been killed by them, and the seal it set is naturally gradually weakening.
Although they could wait until the seal completely disappeared, they didn't have that much time. After all, those monks were probably about to arrive.
So Zheng Yuan took out the black dagger and gently slashed it forward.
The originally powerful seal completely disappeared at this moment, but Zheng Yuan's face turned extremely pale and he looked very exhausted.
"How amazing! You can easily break such a seal." Chen Li said in shock.
Zheng Yuan waved his hand and said, "This has consumed two-thirds of my spiritual energy. If there is nothing good in it, then I will lose a lot."
