C1099 In Ancient Times There Was a Snake Called Huang
If this was the bottom of the Desolate Heavenly River, then it would be too ordinary. A river that could produce such a dense and wild attributed power shouldn't be so ordinary …
Zhong Li was experienced and knowledgeable, her thoughts were much more extensive than Han Chen's.
Since this was an unusual Desolate Sky River, there must be a special reason for this river to be formed.
It was impossible for a river to appear so casually and possess such great power. There must be some unknown secrets.
"Use the 'Worldwalking' technique to sneak into the ground and investigate." After some thought, Zhong Li spoke.
"Hmm?" Han Chen was startled at first, but soon after, he said unwillingly: "Isn't that good? "Senior, everything below is mud. I'm going head first into it, it really is a bit …"
"Hmph, I'm just asking you to go down and investigate, not to bury you inside. Hurry up, don't dilly-dally."
"Alright!"
Han Chen was helpless, this kind of hard work was enough to grind people up. Immediately, he released the earth-attributed Martial Spirit and started to circulate the Earth Elemental Art.
"Swoosh!"
The underwater space trembled slightly, and Han Chen instantly disappeared from his original position.
Using the Earth Elemental Art to move under the water, Han Chen was especially careful. The deeper they went into the ground, the more they were able to sense an extremely dense amount of Great Desolate Force.
"Buzz!"
After a short while, Han Chen's eyes suddenly opened wide, and he entered a strange independent space.
Where is this place?
Han Chen was startled, a thick sense of caution emerging from between his brows. In front of him was a huge pit, and the surroundings were moist mountain walls. On the other hand, Han Chen stood next to the mountain wall, looking like a volcano cave, causing him to be both shocked and confused.
"Could it be that we've arrived at the magma in the earth's core?"
Han Chen muttered to himself, but he very quickly rejected this idea. This was because not only did the air here not have the slightest bit of scorching heat, it was actually extremely cool.
Moreover, the air was filled with an especially dense wild attributed energy. The surface of Han Chen's skin had begun to erode, age, and crack.
"The power of desolation here is several times thicker than that of the Desolate Heavenly River."
Surprised, Han Chen immediately released his devouring ability and absorbed the incoming power of the Wasteland.
"Let's go to the front and take a look." Zhong Li reminded him.
"En!"
Han Chen nodded and carefully stepped forward, cautiously moving closer to the pit in the center of the earth. Han Chen was once again stunned when he walked to the side of the pit and looked down.
The crater was at least a hundred meters high, and it was filled with an endless amount of gray light.
These rays of light were like a myriad of demonic barriers as they wantonly soared and danced within the pit. These grey lights floated in the air, and some of them even transformed into liquid form, turning into water droplets and flowing down along the stone wall.
"The power of the Desolate Attribute is actually condensed into liquid form!"
Han Chen was extremely shocked, the reason why a certain kind of energy could be converted into liquid, was because the concentration of that energy had reached a very high level.
And at the bottom of the deep pit, there was already an unknown layer of liquid Desolate Force.
But why?
"Hiss hiss!"
Abruptly, a light and peculiar sound was transmitted into Han Chen's ears.
Han Chen was shocked, he immediately regained his senses and in the next moment, he saw a grey figure rushing past from the bottom of the pit.
What's that?
Han Chen immediately retreated backwards and made preparations to engage in battle at any moment.
However, even after waiting for the time it took to brew a cup of tea, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. Immediately after, Han Chen approached the cave in front of him once again. For safety's sake, he specially used a huge boulder at the edge of the deep cave as a cover.
Han Chen retracted his aura, and did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
Standing at the back of the huge rock, he looked through the hazy gray gas and checked the bottom of the cave.
Snake?
Han Chen's pupils could not help but constrict as he frowned. At the bottom of the cave, there were two large snakes coiling around each other.
The skin of the large snake was dark gray in color, and there was an especially dense force of desolation beneath it. If one did not look closely, they would not be able to see it.
The two snakes were each a hundred meters long, as thick as a water tank, with palm-sized scales arranged closely together. While flicking their tongues, their mouths were also filled with a gray power.
Han Chen was even more shocked. What kind of snake was this, to not be affected by the power of the great wasteland and also be able to spit out power of the desolation attribute?
Such a monster was truly unheard-of and unheard-of.
"Wild Snake, I didn't expect that there would be two wild snakes living here."
A voice filled with amazement came out of Zhong Li's mouth. This was one of the few times that Han Chen had heard Zhong Li's complicated tone. It contained shock, disbelief, and even a hint of surprise.
"Desolate Snake? What kind of fierce beast is this? " Han Chen asked.
"Vicious beasts?" Zhong Li chuckled lightly as he replied mockingly, "The Desolate Snake is a Saint Beast at the same level as Di Xinghu, Baize and the other four Saint Beasts."
What? Saint Beast? Han Chen was even more shocked.
"Speaking of which, the rank of the Desolate Snake is even older. There are snakes in the ancient times, and wherever it goes, there will be thousands of miles of desolation."
In ancient times, there was a snake called Huang.
Everywhere he went, a thousand miles of wasteland.
Han Chen mumbled these words as he imagined that scene. A giant serpent ran amuck between the heaven and earth. Wherever it went, the earth would turn into sand, and rivers would dry up.
Just thinking about it, this scene was extremely terrifying.
"Since the species, 'Desolate Snake', is so powerful, why are there so few rumors regarding them?" Han Chen asked in confusion.
"It's gone extinct!"
"Huh?"
Han Chen could not react at all. He had a mouth and was a little dumbfounded. Extinction? This was a reason that Han Chen did not expect. Such a powerful species has gone extinct? "
"What's that?" The 'Spirit Demoness' that Pu Miling led must be strong enough! She had disappeared without a trace. The 'Heaven's End Women' from before must have been really powerful! "There's no news of him. There's also the Saint Sage of the demon race who has dominated the world for thousands of years. Isn't he already gone?"
Pu Miling's Spirit Demoness, Heaven's End Women, Demon Saint.
These words caused Han Chen's heart to thump loudly. Clenching his fists, he asked in a deep voice, "Did these once famous super species all perish and die because of the 'Battle of Saints'?"1
"That's right. In the several thousand years of the Sacred War, countless experts died, and countless races have been annihilated. The Wildsnake clan had perished during the battle that year. As for these two wild snakes, most likely they had survived. What a pity …
Zhong Li sighed, and his voice paused a bit, "Thinking about how glorious the Rage Serpent Clan was back then. "Right now, we can only hide in this kind of dark place and try our best to survive. This tribe will probably never return to its peak."
Hearing Zhong Li's laments, Han Chen also shook his head. That so called "Everywhere you go, Thousand Mile Desolate" could only be imprinted on ancient scrolls forever.
"If that's the case, the reason why the Huang Tianhe River contains so much Desolate Force is because of these two Desolate Serpents?" Han Chen asked.
"That's right. The Rage Snake's Breath possesses extremely strong power of the Desolate Attribute. Originally, it cannot be directly absorbed by the human body. However, after a thousand years of accumulation, the power of the Desolate Force has seeped through the soil in the earth core and entered the Desolate Sky River." After a long period of time, the unfavorable elements in the river were purified by the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and the Sun, Moon, and Spirit Flower.
"So that's how it is."
Han Chen nodded, after listening to Zhong Li's detailed explanation, the confusion in his heart had been solved.
Just as Han Chen was preparing to think about what to do next, a hissing sound came from underneath the cave.
Han Chen was startled, and immediately turned to check.
The two dire snakes twisted their enormous bodies, moving amidst the thick gray light.
Soon, they were all coiled around each other and facing each other with their snake heads.
"Eh? What are they doing? " Han Chen suddenly became confused, held his breath, and calmly probed.
"Hiss!"
The two dire snakes were leaning close to the ground, their mouths slightly open, as they absorbed the liquid type energy from the karst cave. Their speed was extremely fast, and the liquid Desolate Force that gathered on the ground was visibly lowering the horizontal plane. Such a shocking devouring force was like a whale sucking water.
Very quickly, the bottom of the pit was revealed.
In the middle of the two snakes, an ancient stone platform actually appeared. The stone platform was extremely peculiar; it was shaped like a square, and was the size of a pavilion.
What was even more surprising was that there was a groove in the middle of the stone platform. In the middle of the groove, there was a mass of white light.
Upon closer inspection, the white ball of light was a white sphere, and within the sphere, a faint golden liquid was flowing. The holy light was just like the essence of the liquid earth.
"Wild Serpent Essence! Haha! Stinky brat, you've gotten lucky!" Zhong Li's voice was filled with unconcealed joy.
"Wild Snake Essence? "What is this?" Han Chen still had some doubts.
"Simply put, it is a product that the Desolate Serpent brewed by absorbing the spirit energy of heaven and earth while it was growing and brewing. This was definitely an extremely precious treasure; the essence of the Desolate Snake was extremely hard to come by. "Each Desolate Snake will be condensed and used to break through bottlenecks and evolve into a Holy Beast."
They stored the Wild Snake Essence that they had used to transform into a Holy Beast.
Han Chen revealed an expression of astonishment. Without even thinking, one could tell that the so called Desolate Serpent Essence definitely contained an extremely strong power.
After the two snakes had absorbed the liquid waste energy, they pointed their snake heads at the high platform in front of them.
"Buzz buzz!"
In the next instant, two balls of white, illusory smoke gushed out from their mouths, and the Lurker Snake Essence on the stone platform also reacted. It lightly trembled, and like a sponge, it absorbed the Spiritual Energy that was emitted from the Lurker Snake's mouth.
