Chapter 123 - Snake Slaying



Chapter 123 – Snake Slaying

Just when everyone thought that Zhang Yueming would retreat in fear, Zhang Yueming appeared, and the instant he appeared, he brought everyone hope.

The first stage of the martial arts realm, the middle grade spirit artifact, the Splitting Mountain Saber!

This young hero of the Heaven-Shaken Sect had finally displayed his genius and malevolence in front of everyone!

“He broke through! He’s actually using a mid-grade Imperial Censor weapon! His martial arts realm has risen!”

At this moment, Fang Xuansheng and the others had both the joy of surviving a calamity, as well as astonishment and shock. There was even a little bit of jealousy, and all sorts of emotions mingled together to form the complicated gazes of everyone today.

The long blade horizontally slashed across the air, bringing along the swelling confidence of Zhang Yueming after he advanced to martial arts realm, all of them ruthlessly slashed at the head of the Snake-Colored Beast in the midst of this blade strike.

“Kill!”

Yang Junshan had originally wanted to make the Snake Demon appear from the cave and kill him after Zhang Yueming had broken through his martial arts realm, but he was caught unprepared. He had forgotten that after Zhang Yueming had forcefully broken through his martial arts realm, he was unable to retract the fluctuating aura around him at all, and the moment he appeared in the cave, the surging aura around him had already attracted the attention of the Snake Demon.

Even so, Zhang Yueming was confident that he would be able to defeat the snake beast in front of him who had been severely injured in a row. After opening his own dantian and levelling up his martial arts realm, the spirit energy in his body had become even more condensed and dense, allowing him to more easily control everything.

At this moment, the Snake Demon seemed to have realized that danger was approaching. Its body which had just stretched out had collapsed once again, the countless wounds on its body which were already healing started to crack once again, and fresh snake blood flowed out, especially the snake tail which was almost cut by the sealed sword light and Yang Junshan. Only its muscles and bones were barely connected, but under the threat of Zhang Yueming’s blade, it could no longer care anymore.

The giant serpent let out a breath, and the cold energy formed a three foot long ice spear in the air that collided with the Splitting Mountain Saber with a loud bang. The ice shards flew everywhere, and the ice spear shattered with a loud bang, the Splitting Mountain Saber’s momentum didn’t stop.

Another mass of ice fog condensed above the giant serpent’s head, forming an umbrella like ice fog shield. Then, the Mountain Breaking Blade came slashing down, and with a loud bang, the entire world seemed to sink down. The Ice fog shield instantly cracked and shattered, but the blade still came crashing down!

Like two daggers falling from the sky, they struck the Splitting Mountain Saber from the side. Finally, the power of this mid-grade magic tool was gradually whittled away, causing the Splitting Mountain Saber to deflect one slash from the snake-demon’s head, allowing it to pass through its vitals and land on the coiled body.

Scaled Armor Flying Sword, fresh blood flying everywhere, a huge wound running through the three sections of the Snake Demon’s body, but in the end, not a single piece of the body was cut off. This kind of injury could only be compared to the three sword lights on Yan Qinxi’s Sealing Glyph Tool.

Before the Splitting Mountain Saber could finish its attack, it swayed and was about to retreat. However, the Snake Demon had paid a heavy price, how could Zhang Yueming use his second attack!

Hiss hiss! The snake demon spat out a stream of blood from its mouth and instantly wrapped the broken mountain blade that was swaying back and forth. Layers of frost formed on the surface of the blade, and then it turned into ice that gradually thickened.

It was hard to accept!

Even though Zhang Yueming had already levelled up his martial arts realm, he had not even consolidated his own cultivation, so even though he had forcefully refined the middle tier magic tool, the Splitting Mountain Saber, he was still far from being able to circulate the ruyi scepter.

The previous attack had almost caused Zhang Yueming to go all out, and now it was extremely difficult for him to retract this mid-grade magic tool again. The Snake Demon seemed to have already confirmed this point, and after doing its utmost to block Zhang Yueming’s attack, he didn’t even care about his own injuries, and wanted to forcefully stop from retracting the magic tool.

The Splitting Mountain Saber shook violently, but the ice formed on its blade prevented it from rising up into the air. Instead, it sank another two feet, and the two of them unexpectedly came to a stalemate.

More than sixty meters away, Zhang Yueming who was initially filled with confidence was currently trying to retrieve the Splitting Mountain Saber witead full of sweat. However, at this time, the aura around his body was fluctuating even more violently, and the spirit essence that was just opened up in his dantian was also constantly changing, which was a sign that his cultivation had not consolidated yet, and his realm was not yet stable.

Zhang Yueming had only just had a breakthrough in his cultivation, and was using a secret technique to break through in a moment of desperation. Although he had only accumulated enough energy, it was still not a natural breakthrough, and in the end, the last layer of window paper was not a natural one, it was reasonable to say that it was the most dangerous part of the time, if his cultivation could not stabilize, his Dantian would retract and collapse, and it would be possible for his cultivation to fall back into the Mortal Realm.

This time, he had to completely give up on the Splitting Mountain Saber that he had just obtained and solidify his cultivation first. Or he could forcefully retract the Splitting Mountain Saber before his cultivation collapsed. For Zhang Yueming, this was a dilemma.

Just at this time, a human figure suddenly rushed in from the poisonous miasma the Snake Demon had put around his body, releasing a bright yet familiar glow. While the Snake Demon was in a stalemate with Zhang Yueming over the tools, Yang Junshan accurately slashed at the snake tail wound he was about to cut earlier.

The Snake Demon had already sensed the danger the moment Yang Junshan had charged in. However, after being injured repeatedly, wanting to turn and move the Snake Demon’s body had already become extremely difficult, especially since the tail part of the snake was almost cut off. There was no longer any strength left to dodge it.

The Splitting Mountain Saber, which was trapped by the poisonous mist, took the chance to fly up to the sky and try to escape its bindings. However, the Snake-Demon, who was about to counterattack at Yang Junshan,, noticed that Yang Junshan was about to throw a cloud of blood ice mist at the Splitting Mountain Saber once again.

Compared to Yang Junshan, who only knew how to use scabies, the Snake Demon was more afraid of Martial Realm Cultivator, who had used a magical equipment.

However, the Snake Demon had obviously underestimated Yang Junshan’s current usage. Seeing that the Snake Demon did not care about cutting off her snake tail and was still focusing on the Splitting Mountain Saber, Yang Junshan turned around and escaped out of the icy mist.

Just as he was about to break away from the icy mist, Yang Junshan leaped horizontally, turned around abruptly and nocked three arrows with iron feather talismans consecutively shooting out, not towards the serpent demon, but towards the broken blade in the air.

Boom! * Boom! * Boom! *

The talisman arrows that were engraved with the Breaking Mountain Technique exploded on the blade of the blade one after another. The distant Zhang Yueming also suffered three consecutive shocks to his spirit soul at this moment, but at this moment, Zhang Yueming was not alarmed.

The Splitting Mountain Saber was a mid-grade magic tool. Although it would bite the Imperial Emissary after receiving an attack from the Shattering Mountain Sword Technique, what was more important was that the Shattered Mountain Saber Technique would caushick layer of ice on the blade to be completely shattered.

Splash splash, the shattered ice fell onto the ground and the Splitting Mountain Saber relaxed as it instantly broke through the shackles of the Snake Demon’s Breath and returned into Zhang Yueming’s hands.

Originally, it could have completely seized the initiative after imprisoning the magical artifact that posed the greatest threat to it, the Splitting Mountain Saber. However, it did not expect Yang Junshan to disrupt its plans.

Zhang Yueming was more than sixty meters away, but the Snake Demon was temporarily unable to kill him. Thus, it vented all of its anger onto Yang Junshan, the human cultivator who had destroyed its plan. A bloody ice spear formed and chased after Yang Junshan from behind.

Yang Junshan had already planned for this, when he released the three arrows, he had already rushed to the edge of the ice poison mist, and once again broke through the ice mist and escaped.

Currently, outside of the icy mist, Fang Xuansheng and the others were still hesitating because of the ice mist’s cold poison’s obstruction. When they saw Yang Junshan charge out once again, they were all startled and Fang Xuansheng muttered to himself: “If I remember correctly, this person hasn’t taken a Spirit Recovery Pill yet, right?”

Yan Qinxi saw that Yang Junshan’s entire body was covered in a layer of ice and the cyan poison was seeping into his skin, yet Fang Xuansheng was distracted, and could not help but ask loudly: “Senior Brother Fang, what are you doing?”

Fang Xuansheng was startled, he anxiously poured all his remaining spirit energy into the Consecutive Jade Plate to help Yang Junshan dispel the cold poison in his body.

Unexpectedly, before his spirit energy had even been poured in, there was already a “hualala” sound. The layer of ice that had solidified on Yang Junshan’s surface had already shattered, and the cyan cold poison on his skin was quickly retreating.

Fang Xuansheng was currently twenty or thirty meters away from him, so even if he had advanced profound strength, it would be impossible for him to send his spirit energy into Yang Junshan’s body from such a long distance. Which also meant that Yang Junshan had not even used their spirit energy to help him eliminate the cold poison on his own.

Was this person really not disguised as Martial Realm Cultivator?

At this moment, this thought flashed across everyone’s minds.

However, Yang Junshan did not panic in the face of danger, as if he had long predicted that the Devil Snake would do suching. Both of his feet suddenly stomped on the ground, and he suddenly jumped more than three meters high from the ground. The blood-colored ice spear immediately passed through his body, exploding at the entrance of the cave.

Just at this moment, the Snake Demon suddenly shot out from the ice mist and bit towards Yang Junshan who was in mid air. At this moment, Yang Junshan seemed to no longer have any leverage to dodge in mid air, and everyone thought that Yang Junshan would not be able to escape this calamity.

However, Yang Junshan’s body suddenly sank down in the air, and with an extremely fast speed, he smashed down towards the ground, causing the serpent demon’s bite to miss again.

Yang Junshan unleashed two unique moves consecutively, escaping from the snake’s mouth. Even though the spirit energy in his body was extremely dense, he was already on the verge of running out of energy. If the Snake Demon chased again, it was likely that he would not be able to escape.

Fortunately, at this time, Zhang Yueming was finally able to calm the turmoil of the spirit essence in his body, and the Splitting Mountain Saber once again flew towards the serpent demon with an unstoppable aura. This time, the serpent demon had expended too much energy in order to chase after Yang Junshan, and despite using too much of its life force, it was no longer able to resist the force of the Splitting Mountain Saber, and its body was cut in half.

The half of its body twisted and swung, and with a “pa” sound, it happened to sweep across half of Senior Brother Zheng’s shoulder. The Senior Brother Zheng let out a blood-curdling scream, as half of his shoulder and one of his arms were completely destroyed.
