What blocked the way was a thick python, whose stature was comparable to that of Long Xing's subordinate Snake Immortal among the Five Immortals.
Snake Xinzi, who looked cold and cold, kept issuing threats, as if to prevent Long Xing from entering. The python that appeared on the way put Long Xing in trouble. The snake's body was so thick that it just blocked the passage of the wall cave.
Long Xing opened his purple eyes and observed the big python stuck in the hole in the wall. Its body was as hard as stone and shone with phosphorescence. The ordinary sword could hardly cause much damage to it.
Moreover, the long snake tongue is highly venomous and can kill people at any time.
If he didn't have the snake charm on his body, Long Xing might be able to avoid its attack. Even if he couldn't drive it away, he could still make this big guy retreat.
Now that he is carrying Snake Mei on his back, his body is not flexible enough and there is no way he can compete with her in this kind of terrain. It is very difficult to get over it.
"Brother Long Xing, what did you encounter?" Snake Mei on her back couldn't see in the dark. She didn't know what danger she encountered ahead, so she asked worriedly.
"It's a big python, blocking the middle, seeming to prevent us from entering the passage." Long Xing moved his body back a step.
When She Mei heard the big python, her delicate body trembled, and she hurriedly asked, "Big python? Can you see it? How big is it?"
"It's about the thickness of a bucket, with a big head, and its triangular eyes are emitting a bloody cold light. It looks very difficult to deal with. Do you still have that kind of medicinal powder that makes people stun? Does it have any effect on big pythons?" Long Xing pondered for a moment, and felt slightly in his heart. Move, asked in a low voice.
"Brother Long Xing, don't worry. The big python you are talking about may be the snake that saved me and raised me. Let me communicate with it." Snake Mei straightened up, pressed her hands on Long Xing's shoulders, and turned her head He leaned out and looked at the dark thing in front of him.
Hearing this, Long Xing turned sideways, turned his purple eyes, glanced at the python, and nodded immediately, "Do you have a way to communicate? Can it understand you?"
"I've been living with it for several years, and it can understand what I say." Snake Mei's eyes shone brightly, and she put her hand on her mouth and began to make a hissing sound.
After Snake Mei made a sound, the big python in front of him began to calm down. It raised its humanized triangular head, and its cold eyes turned gentle.
The huge body of the boa constrictor suddenly stiffened, and its two pairs of giant eyes stared at Long Xing in front of him and Snake Mei on his back with some confusion.
It paused stupidly in the midst of Snake Mei's screeching sound. However, every time it glanced at Snake Mei, the ferocity and ferocity in it would involuntarily disappear quickly, and instead, it would be A gentleness...
After a period of confrontation, Snake Mei stopped speaking snake language, she put her face against Long Xing's ear and said to him: "It is the big python that raised me, but it is no longer what it used to be. It told me that five years ago it received an order to guard this passage. As for why, it didn’t know. It wouldn’t let us pass because it was an order, an instruction from the Snake King Realm.”
"Brother Long Xing, don't hit it. It won't attack us, but it's very difficult to get over it." Sensing Long Xing's doubts, She Mei quickly explained.
"Then this big python doesn't know what it wants to protect, what is at the end of this cave, right? If it doesn't get out of the way, it will be difficult for us to get out, and it will not be easy to go back." Long Xing said to Snake Mei with some embarrassment. .
Long Xing's purple eyes stared closely at the big python. He found that the current python really had no intention of attacking, but it still blocked the passage. He couldn't help but be a little stunned at the moment.
"The big python told me that it didn't dare to go forward. It was a forbidden area and it was only responsible for guarding this fork in the road. There was a more dangerous existence ahead, maybe the snake king." She Mei shook her head slightly and said.
"Is there a special way of communication between snakes? You seem to have established a strange connection with them and can sense each other's thoughts..." Long Xing wondered about the snake language conversation between the python and Snake Mei. asked.
"Well, it's a special kind of gratitude. I learned this from a boa constrictor. Maybe I have snake genes in my bones. I heard from my dad that when my mom was pregnant with me, she was cutting firewood in Jigongling. , I was wrapped around my body by a big snake. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but I can sense the snake’s thoughts.” She Mei lay on Long Xing’s body and told him about her ability.
"Then can you feel if there are any other snakes at the end of the passage?" Long Xing said to the snake.
In this passage, Long Xing did not use his mental power to peek ahead. He always had a feeling that if he released his mental power, he would touch something mysterious.
Moreover, in this slippery wall cave, the suction cup where the mental power threads condensed helped him and She Mei reach the parallel passage safely. The wear and tear was very severe. His Niwan Palace was beating violently. That was the mental power. A warning of impending depletion.
Unknown risks and threats had to make Long Xing wary. He must ensure that his mental strength is sufficient, otherwise it will be difficult to resolve danger.
She Mei hesitated for a moment. She closed her eyes and thought carefully. Her feeling was similar to Long Xing's mental perception, but it was more mysterious. This kind of feeling was only suitable for snake-like animals.
It is equivalent to an invisible tentacle that spreads in the world of snakes, sensing each other's movements and thoughts. However, just a few seconds after Snake Mei touched her, her face turned pale, as if she was in great danger.
Snake Mei closed her eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, then slowly opened her eyes, her eyes swept across the dark passage in front, and finally landed on the big python.
Facing Long Xing, he timidly said: "Brother Long Xing...there is indeed a snake in front of you, but it is so shocking. It turns out to be a snake king-like existence. My gratitude almost broke."
"Hiss..." Long Xing took a breath.
"It seems that the thing guarded by this snake king must be very important. Is it the same as the dragon wood king coffin in the big forest? The guardian beast there is the hunting vine dragon. Could the snake king-like existence here also protect the king's coffin or treasures? "Long Xing's heart became excited.
He knew from the ancient jade spirit that the dragon bodies of his previous life were scattered in all directions, making it difficult to collect them. From the moment he entered the passage of this wall cave, Long Xing felt that this cave was made by a huge snake-like animal and was not a natural cave. Could it be related to the Snake King, or could it be caused by dragon creatures?
Now that he's here, no matter what risks lie ahead, Long Xing wants to find out.
This time we went to Jigong Ridge, firstly to investigate the cave where we fell into when we were children, and secondly, to recover the Five Immortals and the Hunting Vine Dragon that were stolen by the Demon Queen.
The reason why he came to Jigong Ridge was because from his perception, Pan Gang and the shadow puppets were probably related to the mysterious mountain here. The consciousness of Lord Enchantress will not appear in the village for no reason.
Since it was the Snake King guarding the passage in front, Long Xing wanted to go there even more. But the big python in front of him must be dealt with. After all, it is Snake Mei's benefactor, so it is difficult to kill it directly. The big python is not smart enough, it is only less than the third level. It is actually very easy to conquer it.
Long Xing tightened the grip on Snake Mei on his back and said, "Sister Snake Mei, hold on tight and I'll take you over. This big python is kind to you, so let it retreat first."
As soon as the words fell, a stream of spiritual power was released from Long Xing's dantian, mixed with the power of the dragon, forming a spiritual dragon that roared silently above the python.
The boa constrictor's body that had just calmed down suddenly became tense. It raised its triangular snake head in fear and stared at the spiritual dragon hovering above its head.
The big python was completely panicked. It didn't even dare to look at the figures of Long Xing and She Mei. With a squeak, its huge body retreated into the original hole at the fork in the road.
Looking at the big python disappearing in the darkness, Long Xing breathed a sigh of relief, smiled faintly, withdrew the spiritual power of his dantian, and said secretly: "This guy has a big snake body, but snakes are timid. Fortunately, he didn't do anything serious. Otherwise Sister Shemei will be sad."
If Long Xing hadn't been concerned about Snake Mei, he could have torn the big python apart and used its gallbladder to improve his eyesight and use it as medicine. The third-level python couldn't resist the blow of Long Xing who was in the Dragon Qi King realm.
Fortunately, Long Xing only used the power of the Dantian dragon to frighten it away. No matter how fierce the snake is, it is just a long worm in front of Long Wei.
"I didn't expect Brother Long Xing to be really capable. I was worried that the boa constrictor wouldn't retreat, and I couldn't beat it." Although Long Xing used a trick when dealing with the boa constrictor, he used the levels of the animal world and used high-level dragons. It was frightened away. But She Mei was impressed by Long Xing's ability to be so calm in such a dangerous moment.
Long Xing smiled faintly. After the passage was clear, Long Xing and She Mei hurried forward.
"There is a snake king-like existence nearby." Snake Mei's body trembled a little, and she was afraid of the snake king from the bottom of her heart. As a snake girl, she has the nature of a snake in her bones.
The passage in front began to widen, allowing two or three people to pass through. The cave was dark, but there was a faint light, which seemed to be quite mysterious.
And the channel is slightly inclined upward. Around the road wall, there are many scattered, claw marks, and knife-like marks. Perhaps due to the passage of time, these marks have become extremely blurred.
"Finally I met the real owner." Long Xing smiled excitedly, hugged She Mei's waist tightly, and put his toes on the wall of the passage for the last time. Their figures flew through the air, and finally landed steadily. Uphill, the cave wall is slightly flat.
"Bang bang bang" a strong knocking sound sounded in front.
A burly man dragged a seven or eight-meter-long tail. His head was a rather ferocious-looking triangular head, with blood-red eyes glowing with a strange blue light, and a mouth full of fangs. It looked terrifying, and it fell In front of Long Xing.
"Human! This is no place for you!"
Hearing that this snake beast could actually speak human language, Long Xing was surprised at first, and then suddenly realized that beasts at this level have already developed spiritual wisdom, and their wisdom is not lower than that of humans.
This snake king is at least the sixth level, and is more powerful than the big bat in the Mohist underground palace.
