Consuming a thousand medium-grade spirit stones, Huang Yu obtained a Ten Thousand Snake Grass, which made him extremely pained. Although he now had plenty of spirit stones, if this continued, he wouldn't be able to afford the expenses.
Finding a relatively secluded place, it seemed quite suitable.
Huang Yu then crushed the Ten Thousand Snake Grass and lit it up.
A faint spicy fragrance spread with the wind.
In no time, Huang Yu heard rustling sounds. He looked around and found that snakes were everywhere, densely packed, making his scalp tingle.
However, those snakes instinctively avoided Huang Yu.
This made Huang Yu sigh in relief. If these snakes had attacked him, he wouldn't have known what to do. The only option would have been to use the True Spirit Talisman to leave.
...
"Why are there so many snakes?"
"Senior Brother Fang, there are so many snakes?"
"What's going on?"
At this moment, Fang Jie and the others were immediately surrounded by a swarm of snakes.
"Break through."
"Kill."
A series of sword lights instantly killed many venomous snakes.
But those venomous snakes seemed to be possessed, continuing to surge forward.
"There are too many, we can't kill them all."
"Even if we can't kill them all, we must still fight. We need to carve out a path, or we might end up as these snakes' dinner."
"Senior Brother Fang, look ahead." Xuanyuan Aotian pointed ahead.
"It's a third-stage Teng Snake." Zhao Zixuan shouted loudly.
"Damn, how is this possible? Teng Snakes are solitary mystic beasts. How can there be so many?" Fang Jie, seeing so many Teng Snakes, at least dozens of them, frowned deeply.
Just the ordinary venomous snakes were already a headache. Now, with so many Teng Snakes, these third-stage mystic beasts were equivalent to Spirit Realm martial artists. Although their attack power wasn't strong, their speed was the most troublesome. It was one thing for himself, but what about the others?
"Everyone, gather around and follow me." Fang Jie, without time to think, waved a sword aura to clear a path and shouted loudly, telling everyone to follow him, preparing to break through and leave. Otherwise, they would only die. Who knew if there were other terrifying mystic beasts after the Teng Snakes? Dozens of third-stage Teng Snakes were already terrifying enough. If fourth-stage mystic beasts appeared, there would be no chance of survival.
"Kill."
"Kill together."
A series of sword auras continuously shot out from Fang Jie and the others' long swords.
Countless venomous snakes were dismembered.
Blood flowed everywhere.
Snake corpses piled up like mountains.
But even so, the venomous snakes kept surging forward, regardless of the cost.
It made them kill until their hands ached.
A Teng Snake spewed a jet of venom, like an arrow, landing on Xuanyuan Aotian's body.
Instantly, it corroded his clothes and pierced through his chest.
"Ah..."
A惨叫, Xuanyuan Aotian instantly turned into a puddle of mucus.
"This..."
Seeing this, everyone's faces turned pale, devoid of any color.
"This isn't a Teng Snake."
"Fourth-stage mystic beast, Tengyi Snake." Fang Jie slashed out a terrifying sword aura, which heavily struck the Tengyi Snake's vital point.
"Crack"
The Tengyi Snake was instantly severed into two pieces.
"Senior Brother Fang, what do we do? Will we die here?" Zhao Zixuan, seeing Xuanyuan Aotian's tragic death, felt a chill and tightly followed Fang Jie.
"Senior Brother..."
"Senior Brother..."
"Stop it." Fang Jie was extremely annoyed. Fortunately, there was only one Tengyi Snake. If the other Teng Snakes were also Tengyi Snakes, it would be a disaster. They might all end up as puddles of mucus.
Huang Yu watched from a distance.
The Tengyi Snake was truly terrifying. A Spirit Realm martial artist was turned into mucus by a single jet of venom. That venom was incredibly terrifying. Of course, if he could obtain this venom, it would be of great help to him.
But Huang Yu only thought about it. The Tengyi Snake was extremely fast, and although its attack power wasn't strong, its venom was terrifying. If he accidentally got hit, he would have no chance of survival. It was too dangerous, even with the Golden Ancient Pupil Technique, Huang Yu didn't dare to try easily.
Too terrifying, too powerful. This Ten Thousand Snake Grass was truly top-notch.
Seeing this, Huang Yu couldn't help but sigh. The thousand medium-grade spirit stones were absolutely worth it. If he were to attack a city, using this Ten Thousand Snake Grass would be effortless.
At that time, he could use this Ten Thousand Snake Grass to play with the Central Yuan Sword Sect.
However, Huang Yu was overthinking. The Central Yuan Sword Sect, such a sect, would have protective mountain arrays outside, powerful formations that could keep all the venomous snakes out.
These few venomous snakes wouldn't have much effect. Unless there were countless, endless venomous snakes that could besiege the entire Central Yuan Sword Sect, then there might be some effect.
Of course, if there were seventh-stage snake mystic beasts, that would be a different story.
However, within thousands of miles around the Central Yuan Sword Sect, there were no seventh-stage mystic beasts, and seventh-stage mystic beasts weren't something that the Ten Thousand Snake Grass could attract.
Huang Yu was content, but Fang Jie and the others were exhausted.
Each of them was seriously injured.
Twenty-nine people, one died, leaving only twenty-eight.
Of the twenty-eight, three were severely injured.
Two were heavily poisoned.
Twelve were lightly injured, and only three were unharmed.
After a fierce battle, they finally carved out a bloody path.
The scattered venomous snakes didn't cause them much trouble.
But this battle had drained them.
Almost everyone was exhausted, almost out of strength to even swing their swords.
The only one still with fighting power was Fang Jie, but even he was at the end of his strength and couldn't last much longer.
"Go, leave here quickly." Fang Jie, though exhausted, still endured the fatigue. "This isn't a simple matter, it's not a coincidence. If I'm not mistaken, this is definitely that guy's doing."
"I can't move, Senior Brother Fang, let's rest a bit."
"Yes, Senior Brother Fang, rest and recover before moving. Otherwise, if we encounter more venomous snakes, we won't have the strength to fight." Zhao Zixuan sat on the ground, panting heavily.
Huang Yu watched everything.
The snake swarm had passed.
The effect of the Ten Thousand Snake Grass had disappeared.
But they were now exhausted.
This was an opportunity.
Right now.
Huang Yu moved, holding a fruit knife.
Flying Knife Technique.
The first target was Fang Jie.
The Thunder Tribulation Realm Fang Jie.
The fruit knife formed a beautiful arc, heading straight for Fang Jie's back.
But Fang Jie, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, his hair stood up, and he suddenly turned his head, slightly dodging.
"Swish..."
Huang Yu's flying knife missed him, grazing his face and leaving a blood trail.
"Who dares to sneak attack?" Fang Jie felt a chill, breaking out in a cold sweat. This knife was terrifying, extremely terrifying. If he had been a bit slower, he would have become a corpse.
"Sneak attack, humph, you all came to besiege me, and you still call me a junior. You're asking for death." Huang Yu didn't waste words, his Zijizhi Sword trembled, and he leaped up, transforming into a purple dragon, charging at Fang Jie with full force, not giving him any chance.
Otherwise, once he recovered, Huang Yu would be in trouble.
Huang Yu knew the terror of a Thunder Tribulation Realm martial artist. So many venomous snakes, even a fourth-stage Tengyi Snake, couldn't kill him, and he even protected so many burdens, yet he survived. This showed his strength. Even now, at the end of his strength, Huang Yu didn't dare to be careless.
"Thunder Dragon's Wrath."
"Damn." Seeing Huang Yu transform into a purple dragon, charging at him with terrifying momentum, the surrounding trees were uprooted, the terrifying aura and powerful momentum were like a fierce flood, a towering wave, a destructive force that seemed to destroy everything in its path.
Retreat was impossible.
The only option was to avoid the sharp edge.
But Fang Jie was already exhausted from fighting the snake swarm. Although he wasn't injured, his strength was less than thirty percent of his peak. Avoiding was impossible, so he had to resist, take the hit, and still have a chance.
"Sky-Piercing Sword."
With no way to avoid, he had to fight to the death.
Fang Jie's sword drew a dazzling light, a terrifying sword aura like a sky-piercing sword, breaking through the air, unstoppable.
This sword was the strongest Fang Jie could muster at this moment, gathering all his strength, his desire to live.
Even with only thirty percent of his strength, a Thunder Tribulation Realm martial artist's power was astonishing.
Huang Yu, merging with the Zijizhi Sword, transforming into a purple dragon, was also his strongest move, but facing this sword, he still felt the terrifying power.
"Boom..."
Two terrifying forces, one purple and one white, collided.
A massive explosion destroyed everything around.
A huge crater appeared on the ground.
Everyone was affected.
The dense trees were completely flattened.
Huang Yu spat out a mouthful of blood, the powerful backlash severely injuring him.
And the system notification sounded in his ear.
"Congratulations, player has killed Thunder Tribulation Realm Fang Jie, gained 3900 experience points, gained 3900 life energy."
"Congratulations, player has killed Spirit Realm Zhao Zixuan, gained 2800 experience points, gained 2800 life energy."
"Congratulations, player has killed Spirit Realm Liu Dachuan, gained 2900 experience points, gained 2900 life energy."
"Congratulations, player has..."
...
"Congratulations, player has leveled up to level 18."
"Congratulations, player has leveled up to level 19."
"Congratulations, player has advanced to the sixth level of the Human Infant Realm."
"Congratulations, player has completed the task of killing one Thunder Tribulation Realm martial artist."
This move, with its immense power, affected the others before the collision, instantly killing the rest.
Eighteen people, a full eighteen people.
One move, killing them all, incredibly powerful, leaving Huang Yu in disbelief.
