Chapter 409 Black Giant Serpent

"numb?"

Lei Yushou noticed that she looked unwell.

As soon as I touched Fengying's arm, I noticed that her body was indeed a little numb.

The numbness didn't have much of an effect on people, but Lei Yushou still felt a slight palpitation.

That's a bit unusual.

"What happened to you? Were you injured by lightning?"

Fengying shook his head.

She could tell that it wasn't her who was injured.

But -

Something might have happened to her.

When Feng Ying swallowed that drop of blood, he thought it was something that controlled him and sealed his cultivation.

However, her cultivation level has not been affected, and her body has no other reactions. She has almost forgotten about that drop of blood.

Looking back now, this unusual feeling filled her with a sense of unease.

She's in trouble. Does that mean I'm going to die too?

Feng Ying's face turned deathly pale.

"You've been getting into trouble lately, we should return to the sect as soon as possible."

Lei Yushou said, "We can no longer go to Xuanwu City."

The wind and shadow remained silent.

After Liang Yao died, those people dragged him down with them. Last time, he was only able to escape because he was saved by a kind person.

It's no longer acceptable to stay outside now.

I just don't know who the person who will save me will be.

"I haven't received a reply from my master these past few days."

Lei Yushou also felt uneasy: "We need to go back as soon as possible."

They were disciples from a small sect within the territory of the largest medicine sect, Ling Shen Sect.

Although the sect was not large in scale, it was united and occupied a mountain.

Lei Yushou is Fengying's senior brother. The two of them came to the Dragon Frost Swamp to dig for materials related to Dragon Breath Spirit.

However, their sect is quite free. They didn't come here under the guise of working; they also do business privately and have cooperation with major sects. So, the price for taking the teleportation array isn't expensive.

He is now on his way back to his ancestral home.

"We didn't even get the fourth-tier blue beast bone, and we ended up in such a mess."

Fengying said dejectedly, "I hope Master won't blame us."

"No, there's a reason for this. Why would Master blame you?"

As Lei Yushou spoke, the flying artifact beneath his feet moved at a considerable speed, and the sect's mountain peaks came into view.

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Fengying suppressed the discomfort in her heart and prepared to return to the sect with her senior brother.

However, as soon as they got close, their expressions immediately froze.

The once picturesque mountain gate was now shrouded in black smoke from a fire, and many places at its foot had been reduced to ruins.

The places where spiritual herbs and medicines were originally grown have all been destroyed.

The once magnificent mountain gate buildings have all collapsed.

"Master!"

Lei Yushou and Feng Ying were both pale-faced as they quickly entered the sect's territory.

The protective formation had disappeared, proving the fierce battle that had taken place here.

Feng Ying panicked and tried to call for help telepathically, but Lei Yushou suddenly covered her mouth: "It's too quiet!"

The place had become a ruin, but there wasn't even the sound of insects chirping.

Their eyes were already red, and they could sense that there was no living soul left in the sect.

Master, those junior sisters and brothers...

They've all disappeared.

The ground was littered with fragments of flesh and blood from some people, while most of the other remains had vanished.

No living corpses could be found.

This indicates that the disaster encountered within the sect is no ordinary horror.

The two arrived at the main hall of the mountain gate, where the surrounding atmosphere was eerily quiet.

The two were devastated.

After confirming that there was no sign of living beings nearby, Lei Yushou stepped back, preparing to leave immediately with Fengying to seek help from a major sect for investigation.

It wouldn't be good for them to remain at such a bloody scene.

At that very moment, a fishy smell suddenly wafted over, and Lei Yushou instinctively felt something was wrong.

With a wave of his hand, a long spear radiating flames appeared fiercely and thrust towards the direction from which the aura came.

However, before the colossal black figure, the spear couldn't even pierce the skin, and it split open on the spot.

"puff!"

The magic weapon was destroyed the moment it was used; the opponent's cultivation level far surpassed his and Feng Ying's, and he was not even at the Foundation Establishment stage.

Lei Yushou coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Senior brother!"

Feng Ying's eyes widened, and the two of them stared in horror ahead.

A giant black snake, almost completely engulfing the entire mountain gate, appeared silently, its origin unknown.

It lunged at Feng Ying and Lei Yushou, its mouth wide open, about to swallow them both.

An immense pressure swept over him, and Fengying couldn't even raise his hand to resist.

They could only watch in horror as the snake's head with two venomous fangs approached.

What's this?

Monster?

But it doesn't quite look like it.

It is complete, unlike the flawed appearance of a monster.

A mythical beast? I've never heard of such a large black snake before.

It was a giant, pure black snake.

As the snake's body meandered and moved, its scales shimmered with a faint, multicolored glow.

The snake's pupils are green.

As the enormous snake head drew closer, Feng Ying and Lei Yu Shou both closed their eyes, realizing why the entire sect had been wiped out and their bodies could not be found.

A sense of despair spread; they thought they were doomed to perish here today.

However, after waiting for a moment, the pain of death did not come.

Feng Ying subconsciously and slowly opened her eyes.

My heart suddenly clenched.

The enormous snake head was lowering, and its green pupils almost reflected her entire image.

The snake stared at her with cold, unreadable eyes, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

The next second, the green pupils contracted slightly, and the snake's head slowly turned.

Its enormous body meandered and moved, causing the entire mountain gate to tremble. Its long body had no end in sight, and in an instant it disappeared into the forest.

"..."

Feng Ying and Lei Yu Shou breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Lei Yushou's voice trembled slightly as he asked, "What is that?"

Feng Ying shook his head, equally terrified: "I don't know."

She almost thought she was going to be eaten by a snake.

Lei Yushou was still in shock: "A giant snake at the Golden Core stage? Could it be a sixth-tier demonic beast?"

Feng Ying was somewhat bewildered. The incident at her sect, coupled with the shock she had just experienced, left her feeling as if her mind was about to explode. Cultivators are supposed to cultivate their minds, but at this moment, tears still streamed down her face as a deep sadness overwhelmed her.

She wiped away her tears, feeling utterly confused: "But it doesn't seem like a monster."

The snake was even too perfectly formed, too clean.

Because the appearance of the monsters on the Yunzhou Continent is legendary—each one looks more like an alien than the last.

Lei Yushou pulled her along, saying, "Junior sister, let's leave here first. We must tell the Dan Shen Sect about this as soon as possible."

A strange, giant black snake has appeared, and trouble has struck the sect.

The two suppressed their grief and quickly left the place.

For some reason, Fengying didn't swallow him; it seemed like the snake was looking at him through him.

Regardless, they are lucky to have survived.

If they hadn't gone to the Dragonfrost Marsh, something terrible probably would have happened to them too.
