Chapter 1411 - Dark and Dark Ghost Snakes
"Roaaaaaar!"
The canyon was deep and serene, and ancient trees towered into the sky. A dozen figures carefully moved forward, and from time to time, roars of beasts could be heard, causing everyone to be extremely vigilant.
They were Tang Huan, Lei Jia Yuan and Fang Xu who came from Samsara.
This place was the entrance to the "Ghost Snake Valley".
This area was located in the southwest of the Reincarnation Mountain Range. The entire valley was thousands of kilometers wide and was tens of thousands of kilometers long. Not only were there a lot of Heavenly Beasts inside the valley, but there were also many dangers lurking in the fog.
"Brother Lei, to the right!"
Suddenly, Tang Huan yelled in a low voice.
The moment they entered the canyon, Tang Huan"s Perception Ability was already at its limits.
After stepping into the "Heavenly Heart Transformation", Tang Huan"s Perception Ability had improved by leaps and bounds, reaching a radius of a hundred meters. After advancing to the level of Huang Ji Heaven Scholar, his Perception Ability had increased explosively, and now, the range that Tang Huan"s mind could cover, had reached a radius of a thousand meters.
This was about ten times more than the average Huang Ji.
Even though this valley was dark and gloomy, the powerful Perception Ability allowed Tang Huan to easily capture any hint of activity in the surrounding area.
When Lei Jia Yuan heard this, he suddenly turned around.
Nearly a hundred meters away, a black shadow as thick as an infant"s fist, yet several meters long, suddenly leapt up from the ground, shooting like lightning towards Lei Jia Yuan. Its speed was unbelievably fast, and the strangest thing was that it never made the slightest sound from start to finish.
That black shadow closed in like a ghost. In an instant, the one hundred meters distance between them had been shortened by dozens of meters. The shape of the black shadow was also faintly visible. It was actually a long snake. Its entire body was pitch black without any other colors, perfectly blending with the environment here.
"Ghost Shadow Snake!"
Lei Jiayuan"s complexion suddenly changed. As he let out a low growl, the golden staff in his hand shot out like an arrow leaving the bowstring. The whistling sound echoed through the air and wherever the staff pa.s.sed, a golden storm that seemed to be able to destroy anything was brought about.
"Bam!"
In a split-second, the tip of the staff forcefully collided with the round and flat head of the "Dark Ghost Snake". The powerful Strength Qi immediately swept in all directions, and within a radius of ten metres, sand and rocks flew everywhere, and countless branches and leaves were instantly turned into dust.
As if he had suffered a heavy blow, Lei Jia Yuan took more than ten steps back.
The "Dark Ghost Snake" twisted its body and actually shot back like a spring. It landed on the ground twenty meters away and instantly disappeared without a trace.
Whoosh.
The slight sound of something breaking through the air resounded as Fang Xu and ten other people came over from all directions. Their faces were filled with shock that could not be concealed.
The reason why this "Ghost Snake Valley" was so famous was because of the "Ghost Shadow Ghost Snake".
This sort of Heavenly Beast liked to hide in dark and damp surroundings, and it was not particularly strong. Besides a few mutated ghost snakes that could have the strength of Huang Ji, the majority of ghost snakes were only equivalent to Seventh Transformation humans.
However, this kind of Heavenly Beast hiding technique was extremely clever, it was extremely difficult to find, and its speed was also unbelievably fast, making it hard to guard against, if they were to be ambushed by the Ghastly Dark Serpent, the death rate for seven transformations was as high as 50%, and if their cultivation was lower, they would definitely die.
In the Reincarnation Mountain Range, the "Ghost Shadow Ghost Snake" caused the faces of countless of people to change. Luckily, there were not many Heavenly Beasts, and most of them were hidden deep within the Ghost Snake Valley.
However, not long after entering the "Ghost Snake Valley", they encountered the "Ghost Shadow Snake", causing everyone"s hearts to be shrouded in a layer of shadow.
"Thank you, Brother Tang."
Lei Jia Yuan sighed lightly, looking at Tang Huan who was walking over with them, he felt extremely grateful. If Tang Huan had not reminded him in time, he would have been severely injured. In this place, if one was seriously injured, it was very easy to implicate the entire team.
"Brother Lei, no need to be so polite."
Tang Huan waved his hand, "This is all part of my plan."
Although the Ghost Snake had concealed itself extremely well, it was still unable to hide from Tang Huan"s senses. He had already detected its existence several hundred meters away, however, Tang Huan did not remind him at that time that he did not want to expose his Perception Ability, which was much more than normal.
"Next, I"ll have to rely on Brother Tang."
"A Heavenly Beast like the Ghost Shadow Ghost Snake is extremely difficult to deal with, and it also remembers its enmity. If its ambush fails, it will definitely hide in the vicinity and launch another sneak attack, it can be said to be a lingering spirit. It is said that someone had been entangled with the Ghost Shadow Ghost Snake for months."
Fang Xu and the others also furrowed their brows. There was a "Ghost Shadow Snake" lurking in the shadows, spying on them. This was truly frightening.
If he wasn"t careful, he might not be able to survive.
Although Tang Huan was a Heavenly Scholar Huang Ji, and his Perception Ability far surpa.s.sed these seven transformations, he might not always be able to discover the "Dark Underworld Ghost Snake" early on in its sneak attack. For countless years, in this "Ghost Snake Valley", it was not uncommon to see groups of cultivators being entangled by the Ghost Snake and completely annihilated.
Because of this, even though the Ghost Snake had disappeared, the group did not let down their guard in the slightest. Everyone was very clear that the Ghost Snake was still nearby.
"Why don"t we change locations to look for the Rainbow Pill Heart Gra.s.s and the Silver Frost Dao Stone?"
"Right, this" Ghost Snake Valley "seems to be too dangerous."
"..."
Some had already started to retreat, but there were also many who opposed this.
"Everyone, although this Ghost Snake Valley is dangerous, compared to the other perils in the Reincarnation Mountain Range, it is still considered to be safe. "The path to heaven is extremely dangerous. If a mere Ghost Snake can scare you like this, then why did you run out to gain more experience? It would be better to stay at home and live for thousands of years." When Lei Jia Yuan heard this, he could not help but shout out loud. Those who had thoughts of retreating, all had embarra.s.sed looks on their faces.
"Everyone, there"s no need to worry about this Ghost Snake …"
Tang Huan swept her eyes across the crowd and suddenly smiled. The moment his voice fell, Tang Huan"s figure suddenly horizontally moved without any warning. His speed was as fast as a meteor, and the dark blue spear in his hand pierced onto the ground that was covered in withered branches and broken leaves dozens of meters away.
"Chi!"
In the midst of the ear-piercing hissing sounds, the long spear was like a dark blue stream of light, which seemed to be extremely swift, the powerful Strength Qi forced its way out, condensing into a terrifying storm that followed along the spear aura and roared forward. The thick branches, leaves, and black soil on the ground churned and turned into dust in the air.
"Hiss!"
With a screech, the crowd faintly discovered that a black figure was already crawling and not moving under the several meters deep black soil.
