In the blink of an eye, all the poisonous snakes on the ground were burned to ashes.
Faintly, there seemed to be a meaty aroma of cooked snake meat wafting over.
Blacky sniffed with its nose, and its lifeless eyes became alert. Immediately, a long stream of mucus dripped down from its mouth.
With a slurp, the mucus was sucked into its mouth, and then it quickly flowed down again.
"My Spiritual Energy has reached 970,000."
Ziyue glanced at the Stats Panel and was slightly startled. Then, he revealed a trace of hesitation.
"When my Spiritual Energy exceeded 100,000, my Stats Panel had its first upgrade.
Now that my Spiritual Energy has exceeded 1,000,000, will it upgrade again?
If it does, there will be a period of time when I can't rely on the Stats Panel to increase my strength.
Should I increase my strength first? "
Ziyue hesitated for a moment, but then a trace of determination flashed across his face.
"Upgrade!"
He had always believed that strength was the foundation. The Stats Panel might be magical, but it could only be used as a support.
Delaying the increase of his strength in order to upgrade the Stats Panel was a matter of neglecting the essentials.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and glanced at the Stats Panel.
"Spent 382,456 Spiritual Energy to upgrade the Purple Qi Visualization Technique to the ninth level!"
"Upgrade!"
"Spent 175,425 Spiritual Energy to upgrade the Eight Extraordinary Meridians chapter of the Purple Mansion Creation Technique to perfection!"
"Upgrade!"
Weng!
Weng!
Weng!
In an instant, all sorts of information regarding the Purple Qi Visualization Technique and the Purple Mansion Creation Technique rushed into Ziyue's mind. The various comprehensions made him dizzy and intoxicated.
At the same time, he felt his Spiritual Energy and inner strength surging in his body. All sorts of earth-shattering changes were occurring rapidly in his body.
In a short period of time, he felt as if he had gone through years or even decades of bitter cultivation. His aura was wild and powerful to the extreme.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The strange meridians could not obstruct his inner strength at all and were broken through like a hot knife through butter.
In an instant, all eight of his meridians were opened. His strength also soared, reaching the peak of a second-rate expert.
Sizzle!
Sizzle!
Buzz!
As his Dantian expanded, streams of Spiritual Energy became even more powerful. As the Spiritual Energy repeatedly surged into his Dantian, they continuously collided and rippled, causing the Spiritual Energy in his Dantian, which was already dense to begin with, to fuse together even more tightly.
Immediately after, a misty spiritual power appeared in his dantian. Like a chain reaction, more and more spiritual power began to turn into mist.
With the same volume of spiritual energy, the power suddenly became more powerful and majestic.
A second-rate expert at the peak of the ninth level of the Refinement Stage!
Ziyue's face was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.
The feeling of his strength rapidly rising was too comfortable, too satisfying.
Caw!
As if sensing that something was wrong with Ziyue's soaring aura, a loud snake cry suddenly came from the depths of the cave.
Then, the ground began to tremble, as if wheels were rolling.
Seven or eight huge snakes, bringing with them a foul wind and a rain of blood, instantly dashed out.
These huge snakes were more than fifteen meters long. Even the smaller ones were five or six meters long. Under the fierce attack, they were like a long river passing through the sun, unstoppable.
The huge rocks that were blocking them were crushed by the snake's shining scales, and the rocks were sent flying.
Two Eagle screeched and spread their wings to meet the snakes. However, the moment they collided with the huge snakes, they turned into Spiritual Light and shattered into nothingness.
A sword light flashed and shot out.
However, under the attack of the five or six meter long golden snake, it was instantly smashed into pieces, unable to resist at all.
With the chilly wind whistling, the eight Primary Souls turned into streaks of black light, each rushing toward a huge snake.
With a series of bangs, the Primary Souls were all shattered, and it took a while for them to reform.
The black puppy hesitated for a moment, but still rushed out without hesitation. Its eyes were full of bloodthirsty madness and determination.
"Get behind me and hide!"
Ziyue suddenly opened his eyes. With a thunderous voice, he grabbed the black puppy's neck and threw it slightly.
Then, he moved forward and waved his hand.
His eyes opened abruptly, as if a peerless demon had come to the world. In just one move, he threw the black puppy behind him.
Clang!
In the blink of an eye, a small golden sword shot out from his body like a dragon swimming out of the sea.
It was the Upper Grade Celestial Artifact, the Golden Light Sword.
The Golden Light Sword was as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, it rushed to the front of a huge snake. Before the snake opened its mouth to spit out venom, it had already pierced through its head.
The huge snake's body stiffened, and its bloodthirsty eyes lost their luster in an instant. Then, it fell heavily to the ground.
Swoosh!
The Golden Light Sword vibrated like a water droplet falling into a calm lake, causing a layer of ripples.
Then, it pierced into the body of another huge snake.
Puff!
Puff!
Puff!
Before the huge snakes could get close to Ziyue, the golden light had already shot into their bodies. Then, their bodies stiffened and fell to the ground, never to get up again.
Hiss!
Even though Bai Ziyue's small golden sword was as fast as a flying golden dragon, the huge snakes were not slow at all. Several huge snakes stirred up the boundless wind and rain as they turned into long rainbows and charged toward Bai Ziyue.
"Saber, come!"
Ziyue did not move, but the Divine Black Saber in the scabbard at his waist shot out automatically at this moment and was directly caught in his hand.
Tyrannical Saber Art!
The saber light swept out. A huge red snake had just spat out a mouthful of flames from its huge mouth, but it was bounced back by Ziyue's saber.
As the flames swept out, the huge red snake let out a furious roar. An unpleasant burnt smell came from its body.
Just as it was angry, a black light flashed and endless darkness swept out, drowning its consciousness.
The huge snake's entire head was split in the middle, forming a huge gap.
No matter how strong its vitality was, it was still going to die at this moment.
Then, Bai Ziyue swung his saber backhandedly, and the head of a huge white snake that could swallow cows and sheep fell off. The cut was smooth, and it was not until a while later that sticky and stinky snake blood spurted out.
A huge golden snake, because of its small size and cunning, hid behind the huge white snake. The moment Ziyue killed the white snake, it let out a loud snake cry.
The scales on its body stood up, and its tail slapped the ground.
Bang!
The extremely hard mountain rocks were directly crushed into powder.
Then, its body shot over like a bolt of golden lightning.
"You're courting death!"
Ziyue's face was calm, and his voice was even calmer.
At this moment, the pitch-black saber emitted a layer of dim light. Waves of inner strength flowed into it, and as it rippled, the air vibrated.
Like a black waterfall, it swept past.
Ziyue's long saber was so sharp that it could break diamond.
However, because of the angle and speed of his saber, he didn't have time to turn the saber.
Therefore, this saber went from bottom to top, and the back of the saber hit the lower jaw of the huge golden snake.
Tremor Saber Skill!
The huge golden snake's cold eyes seemed to show a trace of mockery. It was about to swallow the human in front of it, but suddenly, it felt a special strangling force along its flesh and into its head. Without hesitation, its head was crushed into powder.
The huge golden snake's body stiffened, and its eyes lost their light.
With a bang, it fell heavily to the ground and didn't get up again.
"Spiritual Energy + 5426!"
In the blink of an eye, the eight snake demons were all slaughtered by him.
With a wave of his hand, the small golden sword trembled and rolled back to him.
Hiss!
Another loud snake hiss was heard. Within the cave, rocks flew everywhere. It seemed that another wave of poisonous snakes and snake demons were about to shoot out.
"Hmph, do you think that I can't do anything to you if you keep hiding?"
Ziyue snorted coldly. His body moved, and without hesitation, he shot out and rushed into the cave.
Hiss!
A strange snake with a pair of fleshy wings on both sides rushed out at the same time and let out a snake hiss.
"Die!"
Ziyue shouted, and the small golden sword that had been coiling around him shot out.
With a slight turn, it cut off the strange snake's wings. Then, the moment the snake lost its balance, it paused for a moment and pierced through its head.
"Spiritual Energy + 7662."
Hiss!
With a snake hiss, there were four pitch-black snakes with snake scales on their bodies. They were well-arranged and extremely hard.
Ziyue's small golden sword trembled like a golden dragon. With a spin, the black snake's head was pierced.
Hiss!
Hiss!
Hiss!
The remaining huge black snakes instantly spat out mouthfuls of extremely dense venom that emitted endless black light.
The venom shot out at an extremely fast speed.
Ziyue dodged two of the venom, but due to the narrow space, he couldn't completely dodge the last venom attack.
Buzz!
Almost instantly, the strong venom corroded Bai Ziyue's Spiritual Light Shield and shattered it.
In an instant, layer after layer of huge golden bells wrapped around Ziyue.
A total of five layers of the golden bells were like the thickest armor that wasn't afraid of any blade or spear.
When the venom landed on the golden bells, it emitted a violent corrosive sound, causing the golden bells to ripple and quickly dissipate.
However, after forcefully strengthening three layers of the golden bells, the venom had already lost its effect and could no longer pose a threat to Ziyue.
The three black snakes were about to continue their attack.
A golden sword light had already shot out.
Then, Ziyue's figure disappeared from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was already beside two black snakes, and the blade light rolled up.
Peng!
Peng!
Peng!
The three huge snake bodies fiercely smashed onto the ground and died instantly.
Then, Ziyue's gaze fell on the deepest part of the cave. There was a white snake that was completely white and had a faint horn on its head.
This white snake was obviously the king of all the snakes here.
Its body wasn't big, only seven or eight meters long and as thick as an adult's waist. However, the aura on its body was mighty and incomparably tyrannical.
As the demonic aura spread out, it seemed to have a natural noble aura that made people tremble.
