Chapter 117 - Snake Coil



Chapter 117 – Snake Coil

When Yang Junshan rushed to the cave entrance, he saw Zhang Yueming and Xu Jing, the only ones left in Heaven-Shaken Sect, Tan Xi Sect, Yan Qinxi and Senior Brother Zheng, together with two other cultivators from the same sect, gathered near the cave entrance. Outside the cave entrance, a cultivator from Tan Xi Sect was lying prone on the ground, his body covered with mud snakes.

When they saw Yang Junshan walking out from the cave, the people of Tan Xi Sect were secretly on guard, especially when Yan Qinxi looked at him witrace of inexplicable meaning in his eyes. Zhang Yueming and Xu Jing were overjoyed when they saw him, and immediately waved him over.

Yang Junshan walked over and asked: “What’s going on?”

Zhang Yueming shook his head: “I don’t know why, but there are a large number of mud snakes gathered outside the cave, surrounding the entire hill. Luckily the cave entrance is small, and the mud snakes that swarmed in are limited, we can hold them off, and just now we managed to push back a group of snakes.

Yang Junshan looked at the corpse, and said: He was bitten by a mud snake, and the poison attacked his heart, at that time, even if he was saved, he would not have been able to live!

At this time, Fang Xuansheng from the Tan Xi Sect behind them suddenly spoke up: “Three sirs, this time the mud snakes are surrounding us in an odd way, although we can still block them outside the cave, but the mud snakes seem to be endless, how about we join forces again?”

Zhang Yueming looked at Yang Junshan, and seeing him nod his head slightly, he said: “Alright, only by sharing the same boat will we be able to get through this crisis. There arotal of nine people on both sides, and the cave can only accommodate three people.

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement, but Yang Junshan suddenly asked: “Did you guys find the Snake King among the snakes?”

The few of them were stunned. Fang Xuansheng clapped his hands, and said with annoyance: “That’s right. As long as we kill the Snake King, the group of snakes will naturally scatter. Why didn’t I think of that!”

The Senior Brother Zheng snorted and said, “Even if there is a snake king, how do we kill it? The surroundings are filled with dense mud snakes. I’m afraid that before we can even rush over, we would have already been submerged by them. ”

“The snakes are coming up again!”

Everyone could not bother to argue anymore. Yang Junshan took the lead and said, “I will go and block for a while!”

Finished speaking, he took out the Hundred Refinement Heng Blade from his waist and walked towards the entrance of the cave, Yan Qinxi’s gaze turned and looked at Yang Junshan’s back, and suddenly let out a “ge ge” sound. His feet lightly touched the ground, and he had caught up to Yang Junshan who was walking out.

“How about I go with you?”

Yang Junshan felt a sweet smell coming from behind him. Beside him, there was another young lady who was looking at him with her autumn watery eyes, looking full of curiosity.

“Junior Sister, you …”

Before Yang Junshan could reply, Fang Xuansheng’s face changed as he tried to stop them. After all, the impression that Yang Junshan had given to the rest was too strong, to be able to kill four people in an instant, Fang Xuansheng knew that he wouldn’t be able to do it himself.

In truth, Fang Xuansheng did not know that Yan Qinxi had once been easily subdued by Yang Junshan, if not he would have immediately made a move to stop Yan Qinxi.

However, Fang Xuansheng still shot a glance at the Tan Xi Sect disciple beside him. Although this disciple was unwilling, he still walked towards the cave entrance and said: “I’ll go too!”

Yang Junshan didn’t care about it at all, he was just staring at Yang Junshan. Yang Junshan shrugged his shoulders and said: “Whatever you wish, but the battle with the group of snakes is not a joke. At that time, don’t expect me to save you!”

When the group of snakes saw that someone had walked out from the cave, they immediately stood up, their necks stretched wide, their tongues flicking continuously, making hissing sounds. Although Yan Qinxi had a cultivation level, she was still a young girl in her teens, and was naturally afraid of snakes.

The blade light streaked across the air in a semicircle arc. Just as Yan Qinxi was cheering for herself, Yang Junshan had already taken large strides forward to attack, this attack was fast and accurate, with five to six snake heads flying above the blade light. The only thing left on the ground were a few headless snakes that were whipping around, hitting the surrounding horde of snakes until they were in disarray.

“Hong!” A ball of fire exploded within the group of snakes. The raging flames ripped open the flesh of the dozens of mud snakes, and the fragrance of meat was roiling in the air.

Then, a disciple of the Tan Xi Sect nodded at Yang Junshan complacently, the provocation in his expression could be seen clearly.

It was at this moment that Yan Qinxi who was on the other side finally overcame her mental difficulties. The sword in her hand flashed with a dazzling brilliance as she consecutively slashed twenty to thirty mud snakes.

With the three of them working together, with Yang Junshan in the center, the Tan Xi Sect disciple and Yan Qinxi on the left and right respectively, killed all of the snakes that were rushing towards them.

Yang Junshan held the blade horizontally in his hand, causing water to be unable to splash inside, and his entire body was completely protected by the cold blade light, causing all the mud snakes that tried to rush up to him to be chopped into pieces.

However, Yang Junshan’s killing efficiency was now far below that of Yan Qinxi who was on both sides. The moment the techniques being used by the two of them were used, at least twenty to thirty mud snakes would surge forward and be killed.

When Yan Qinxi attacked, the entire ball of golden light exploded forward, and any mud snakes that were struck by the golden light would truly die if they touched it. A large amount of sword light scattered out, and a large area of snake corpses would appear on the ground, which was quickly cut off by her.

Even when the two of them were using their spells, each of them had a weapon in their hands. Even if there were fish that slipped through the net due to the spells, they would be quickly killed by the two.

“Fellow Daoist, your speed is really too slow!”

Yan Qinxi flaunted while standing beside Yang Junshan.

In fact, while Yang Junshan killed the snakes, he was also observing the surroundings at the same time. However, the situation did not look good, as there were dense mud snakes everywhere, Yang Junshan had initially wanted to take advantage of the crowd attracting the mud snakes here, and break out of the encirclement after he passed through the secret tunnel underneath the boulder. However, it seemed that this method would not work.

After hearing Yan Qinxi’s provocative words, the blade in Yang Junshan’s hand did not stop, and with another horizontal slash, she accurately cut seven or eight mud snakes into two, and asked indifferently: “Did you clearly see the mud snakes gathering in the swamp around the slope? Do you think we can kill them all with our power? ”

Yan Qinxi said complacently: “It’s not like everyone will say anything, anyway the group of snakes did not rush into the cave.”

Yang Junshan actually nodded his head, and said: “You’re right, since we can’t kill the entire group of snakes, as long as we don’t let them into the cave, then what’s the use of killing all these snakes?”

Yan Qinxi could not help but be angered to the point that she was almost happy, and mocked: “You actually know your own limits, where is the imposing and baleful aura that you had previously in the cave?”

Yang Junshan sighed, and said: Alright, let me ask the two of you, how much spiritual energy is left in your bodies, if the Snake King appeared suddenly, would the two of you still have the strength to resist?

The two of them looked at each other. Yan Qinxi seemed to have understood something and her face instantly changed.

Yang Junshan said: “It’s good that you understand. This group of snakes has gathered all of the mud snakes in the entire Nanxuan swamp, who knows how many there are? We need to buy at least half the time for a cultivator who has exhausted all his spiritual energy to recover his spiritual energy. This way, the three groups of people will take turns to block the snake swarm, and after being switched out, we will have enough time to fully recover our spiritual energy.

The two of them felt extremely awkward. Previously, they had been using all sorts of spells without restraint, and even though the battle had been splendid, the spiritual energy within their bodies had been depleted. If they were to use their cultivation bases to recover, not to mention half of it, even a third of it would be enough.

Yang Junshan had obviously anticipated this situation and took the initiative to say, “You two only need to kill a few fish that escaped the net to return to the cave entrance. Leave the rest to me!”

Yang Junshan, who was originally only there to protect the cave entrance, suddenly started to wander around the cave entrance. A ball of saber light rolled around like a snowball, slashing the snakes that were crawling towards the cave entrance from all directions into pieces. Even if a few of them escaped, they were dealt with by Yan Qinxi and Yue Yang before they reached the cave entrance.

“Whaowerful blade technique!” The Tan Xi Sect disciple could not help but exclaim.

Yan Qinxi curled her lips and said: “What’s the use of that? It’s a mortal’s item.

The Tan Xi Sect disciple continued: “Senior sister, I don’t know if you have noticed, but from the start till now, this person has never used any spirit energy. He used pure physical strength coupled with his sharp blade techniques to block the attack of the horde of snakes.”

“He did not use his spirit energy? This is impossible, it’s been almost two hours already. How could he withstand such an intense battle with his physical body? ”

The Tan Xi Sect disciple said softly: “It’s the real senior, he was fighting with pure physical strength from the very start, and yet his blade light did not flicker at all, which means that he did not channel the spiritual energy in his body into his weapon, which also means, the spiritual energy in his body has always been maintained at the perfect level.”

Yan Qinxi could not believe it: “These mud snakes are not ordinary snakes, even if their bodies are not as tough as metal, it would still take them some effort to slice through them. If he were to slash down with his blade, five to six mud snakes would usually break in half, and just what realm would his body have reached?

Inside the cave, Fang Xuansheng saw that the three of them had endured outside for more than two hours, and could not help but laugh: “It seems like the three of them have stepped up, if there is too much of a difference, our faces will not look good.”
