Chapter 53: Annihilation, Snake Tide
Su Mo had now reached the Second Heavenly Cycle of the Futuo Technique, his cultivation had also reached Martial Saint Beginner, and the Primordial Spirit Power he had condensed was even stronger than before when he devoured the Corpse Incense Konjac Heart.
Moreover, he had already elevated his bloodline to Kirin Sacred Blood, and his Primordial Spirit Power had even condensed Kirin Sacred Might!
This giant sword of Primordial Spirit Power stabbed out, instantly piercing through both the Queen of Jing Jue and the Kunlun Divine Wood together!
The Queen of Jing Jue suddenly let out a shrill wail, the part of her body that was pierced released thick black qi, and at the same time, the spot where the Kunlun Divine Wood was pierced actually flowed with a patch of blood.
Su Mo quickly dashed forward at this moment, instantly leaping onto the stone beam and grabbing the upside-down Xue Li Yang.
The space within the dark power was like a muddy swamp without any substance.
Xue Li Yang was hanging upside down in the air, like falling headfirst into a muddy swamp. Although Su Mo had a thousand jin of strength with a raise of his hand, dragging her was actually extremely difficult.
Su Mo gritted his teeth and exerted force, grabbing Xue Li Yang’s back vest, kicking hard off the stone beam with both legs, while activating his primordial spirit purple qi.
The purple qi giant’s giant sword in his hand suddenly withdrew from the Queen of Jing Jue’s body, slashing horizontally between her and Xue Li Yang.
Boom!
Another explosive sound.
Su Mo carried Xue Li Yang and leaped back more than a zhang, completely leaving the range of the stone beam.
Xue Li Yang fell from the air into Su Mo’s arms.
At this time, the heart of the Kunlun Divine Wood that had been pierced kept dripping blood, the blood flowing down along the stone beam.
The Queen of Jing Jue’s body in the coffin shook, then suddenly fell straight back stiffly.
That sword from the purple qi primordial spirit not only pierced its body, it seemed to have directly destroyed the power within its body!
Meanwhile, Xue Li Yang had her eyes tightly closed, seemingly fallen into a coma.
Su Mo quickly placed his hand on her wrist to check her pulse.
Her pulse was fairly stable, but when the Queen of Jing Jue had stared at her from afar earlier, it seemed to have caused her great harm, to the point that she was now unconscious.
At that moment, a rustling sound like sudden heavy rain came from the darkness, emanating from the Ghost Cave, as if countless animals were climbing up the walls of the Ghost Cave!
Su Mo hurriedly carried Xue Li Yang on his back, then used a safety belt to tie her to his body, and gripped the Frost Moon Sword in his palm.
At this time, countless strange snakes covered in black scales had already climbed out from the Ghost Cave.
The smallest of these strange snakes were only a dozen centimeters long, the largest were as thick as a child’s arm and over a meter long, each with a fleshy crest on its head and blood-red eyes.
Countless strange snakes surged out from the Ghost Cave like a tide, twisting and piling together, quickly climbing onto the stone beam, submerging the Kunlun Divine Wood and the Queen of Jing Jue like a wave.
At this time, Hu Ba Yi and the others had already climbed to the upper platform, hearing the rustling like sudden heavy rain behind them, they quickly turned back to look.
Upon seeing it, everyone couldn’t help but turn pale with fright.
Hu Ba Yi hurriedly cried out in alarm:
“Master!”
Professor Chen and the others also hurriedly shouted:
“Master Su!”
“Young Master Su, come back quickly!”
Su Mo turned his head to look at them and said loudly:
“You go first, get out!”
Although there were many crested snakes, Su Mo had enough power to protect himself, so he was not afraid at all.
He couldn’t leave yet, because he was still completely in the dark about the secrets of the Ghost Cave and the Queen of Jing Jue.
Why did the Queen of Jing Jue suddenly stand up from the coffin, and why did she stare at Xue Li Yang face-to-face, and why did Xue Li Yang suddenly fall into a coma?
What exactly was in the Ghost Cave?
None of these had answers. Even if Su Mo used the Great Yin Meditation Technique or the Zi Wei Guan Xiang Fa, he couldn’t see the true reason!
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pang Zi saw Su Mo say this and could only grit their teeth and say:
“Let’s go first, don’t drag down Master here!”
“Right, Master isn’t afraid of those strange snakes. He has his reasons for staying. Us being here would only drag him down!”
Professor Chen and the others, seeing this, could only grit their teeth and nod, following Hu Ba Yi and the others quickly toward the outside.
Here, the snake swarm was growing more and more, the Kunlun Divine Wood on the stone beam was completely submerged by the snake swarm, even the Queen of Jing Jue in the coffin was covered in black snakes, and more black snakes began spreading outward along the stone beam and the edge of the Ghost Cave.
After the Queen of Jing Jue fell in the coffin, she didn’t move again.
As the blood drops on the Kunlun Divine Wood kept falling, the originally lush green leaves on the tree gradually withered and yellowed.
And the Queen of Jing Jue’s originally fair face like congealed fat also visibly turned yellow and shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Su Mo saw this scene and couldn’t help but be very surprised.
It seemed the Queen of Jing Jue was indeed dead, but Xue Li Yang’s appearance made her suddenly rise from the dead, and through the power of her eyes, she formed some kind of connection with Xue Li Yang.
But because she was already dead, her eyes could no longer emit the power of imaginary space!
Her staring contest with Xue Li Yang from afar was more like a transmission of energy or power?
After being pierced by Su Mo’s purple qi primordial spirit sword, the Kunlun Divine Wood caused the Ghost Cave Sacred Blood in its body to leak out, causing the Queen of Jing Jue’s corpse to rapidly decay!
As Su Mo was thinking, he saw the snake swarm growing even larger, many snakes piling and twisting like surging waves, causing the Kunlun Divine Wood and the Queen of Jing Jue’s corpse on the stone beam to start moving.
This stone beam itself wasn’t wide, and under the surging of the snake swarm, the Kunlun Divine Wood was quickly brought to the edge of the stone beam.
Su Mo saw this was bad and immediately rushed toward the stone beam.
Xue Li Yang was still in a coma now, and it was unknown what connection she had with the Queen of Jing Jue, so Su Mo wanted to drive away the snake swarm and keep the Kunlun Divine Wood.
He dashed to the vicinity of the stone beam in one step. At this time, the snake swarm seemed to sense the Kirin Sacred Blood power on his body, all raising their skulls and hissing threateningly.
Su Mo gathered his qi and roared at the snake swarm:
“Retreat!”
The snake swarm immediately became chaotic, the nearest snakes retreating one after another.
But the crowded snake swarm instead accelerated the Kunlun Divine Wood’s shift, it quickly moved to one side of the stone beam, nearly half already fallen.
Su Mo gritted his teeth and swung the Frost Moon Sword in his hand, intending to kill a bloody path.
Suddenly, he heard Xue Li Yang’s somewhat weak voice from behind:
“Don’t… let’s leave here first!”
Su Mo turned back and saw that Xue Li Yang had woken up. Although her face was still somewhat pale, her beautiful eyes showed no obsession, clearly her mind was very clear.
Su Mo couldn’t help but feel delighted.
It was good that she had woken up, meaning that the Queen of Jing Jue’s staring contest with her earlier hadn’t absorbed her primordial spirit consciousness or the like.
At this time, there was suddenly a boom on the stone beam, the Kunlun Divine Wood fell off the stone beam under the surging snake swarm, and in the blink of an eye, it fell into the dark Ghost Cave.
Xue Li Yang watched the Queen of Jing Jue fall into the abyss along with the Kunlun Divine Wood, her beautiful eyes filled with sadness.
And as the Kunlun Divine Wood fell, an extremely eerie cold aura floated out from the Ghost Cave, filling the entire space with an extremely strange aura, even suppressing Su Mo’s Kirin bloodline aura!
The snakes in the cave suddenly surged out even more, and these strange snakes seemed to become even crazier. Even smelling the Kirin blood aura on Su Mo, they still charged forward recklessly.
