After Qingfeng Li had returned from the void, his body turned into a gust of wind as he dashed towards Xue Lin. Within moments, he had arrived beside her.
Although Qingfeng Li was prepared to help Xue Lin to deal with the swarm of snakes, Xue Lin extended her slender hands and held him back. “Don’t go, I want to try using my Eye of the Phoenix.”
Qingfeng Li had nodded as he understood that Xue Lin had just purified the Dao heart’s seed and improved her strength exponentially. She had also learned the Eye of the Phoenix, a powerful superpower. As for how powerful it would be, Qingfeng Li wanted to see a demonstration of its strength.
Xue Lin asked everyone to back down as she faced the thousands of red snakes alone.
She used her spirit energy along with the Ice Phoenix Immortal Chant in her body. Screeches of phoenixes could be heard as her eyes opened and shot out two rays of white lasers.
The lasers were an intense white light that ripped through the void as they shot towards the snakes, creating booming noises upon contact.
The booming noises were deafening. They hit the snake swarm as if they were two missiles. The bodies of the snakes shattered into a mist of blood instantly.
Upon seeing the scene, the faces of the self cultivators all changed as their eyes filled with fear.
One must remember that the few thousand demonic snakes were all extremely strong and comparable to a master in the spirit monarch realm. Yet, they were all one shot by Xue Lin’s Eye of Phoenix.
On the side, Sky-Devouring Snake and Black Puppy both shook in fear. As the lights came out from the eyes of Xue Lin, even their souls trembled in fear.
Sky-Devouring Snake could feel if the white light had been targeted towards it, it would have been critically wounded.
Qingfeng Li walked beside Xue Lin and held her arm while he gently said, “Honey, your Eye of the Phoenix is too strong. It’s no weaker than my dragon bone.”
Xue Lin’s charming face became overjoyed as she looked towards Qingfeng Li with excitement. Her biggest goal in life was to be helpful to Qingfeng Li, and now that she had achieved it by destroying the poisonous snakes, she had a reason to feel accomplished.
“You d.a.m.ned humans, how dare you kill my minions? I’ll make sure to eat every single one of you today.” A cold, bloodthirsty voice suddenly echoed through the air.
Qingfeng Li turned around and saw a gigantic demonic snake appear in the void behind him.
It was humongous, approximately seven kilometers long. Its large body covered the sky and void like a goliath.
A tumor was on the head of the gigantic snake and looked like it could break any moment.
Sky-Devouring Snake said after observing the Red Snake, “It is the leader, the emperor of all snake kind. It’s evolving into a flood dragon and it is at the peak of the seventh level of the spirit monarch realm.”
Qingfeng Li c.o.c.kily looked and laughed at the snake emperor, paying it no mind.
Upon seeing Qingfeng Li’s careless att.i.tude, the Snake Monarch became enraged as red lasers shot out of its eyes and targeted Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li was not serious at all. He opened his mouth and spit out golden energy. The ray of energy traveled quickly towards the Snake Monarch after splitting the red lasers in half.
The Snake Monarch’s expression changed as it directed its thick tail towards the golden energy. A loud sound shook the air all around before the golden age energy was finally dispersed by the tail.
Qingfeng Li did not mind that at all as he knew how strong the Snake Monarch was. He had calculated that his golden energy would be dispersed by that thick tail.
Qingfeng Li concentrated and took out the Sky-Breaking Halberd from his interspatial ring.
As soon as the Sky-Breaking Halberd had appeared, a force seemed to draw all matter towards it. Its aura shook the void and cracked it. It seems as if the Crimson Fire Continent’s atmosphere could not handle the force and was on the verge of breaking.
Qingfeng Li concentrated again and activated his wind-elemental feather wings. His body turned light like a gust of wind as he flew into the air, directly facing the Snake Monarch. He swung his Sky-Breaking Halberd in a perfect curve, directing it towards the body of the Snake Monarch.
The Snake Monarch could feel the strong aura from the Sky-Breaking Halberd as it swung its long, thick, scale-covered tail to block the attack.
Crack!
With a loud boom, the red scales on the tail became countless pieces and was blown away by the wind. They fell on the floor before disappearing forever.
The Snake Monarch retracted its broken tail as its expression soured and astonishment filled its eyes.
It would never have thought that its strong thick tail would be easily broken by Qingfeng Li. Even its scales could not defend against the weight of the Sky-Breaking Halberd.
After Qingfeng Li saw that the attack was effective, he continued to swing the halberd in countless curves through the air and the void towards the body of the Snake Monarch.
Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack…
The loud sounds followed one after another and had destroyed the scales of the Snake Monarch before long. White bones and red flesh showed beneath the skin as fresh blood gushed from the wounds. The pain was unimaginable.
The Snake Monarch knew that it had severely underestimated the youth, as he seemed to be quite a bit above average.
The Snake Monarch opened its mouth and spat out a ray of red flame. It must’ve been at least nine thousand degrees celsius, and was one of the Snake Monarch’s finis.h.i.+ng move.
Upon seeing the flame, Qingfeng Li smiled as he found it ironic that the Snake Monarch would try to use fire on him. It would be an ant’s attempt to wound an elephant, an act that was completely futile.
Qingfeng Li opened his mouth wide and swallowed the red flame while bathing in the surprised and shocked gazes from the self cultivators.
The jaws of the self cultivators had dropped as they gazed with pure astonishment in their eyes.
“What did I just see? That was a flame from the Snake Monarch, how could Qingfeng Li eat it with one bite?”
“Qingfeng Li is too strong, could it be that he has the immortal fire within him? How could he be so overpowered?”
“I feel like the Snake Monarch was completely countered by Qingfeng Li and all his moves are useless.”
The self cultivators all backed off, fearing that if they go any closer, they would be caught in the crossfire.
And not only were the self cultivators surprised, so was the Snake Monarch. It stopped in its paths in the void and forgot to attack.
It knew how strong and hot its flames were. Normally, it could melt mountains, trees, and the earth. Now, not only could it not harm Qingfeng Li, it was eaten in one bite.
