Chapter 930: Chapter 931 Let Sister Take Control for You
The golden chariot charged head-on, and in the blink of an eye, it burst out of the corridor, revealing a pond below. Li Xiaobai had just exited when he tumbled into the bottom of the pond.
“Splash!”
Both man and chariot plunged directly into the water, stirring up a spray of waves.
System Panel Attribute Points started to rise systematically.
[Attribute Point +10,000…]
[Attribute Point +10,000…]
[Attribute Point +10,000…]
The water in the pond was not ordinary, exuding a bone-chilling coldness that made one shiver.
Had any regular cultivator fallen in by accident, their bones would likely shatter into pieces in an instant.
Under the water was a deep blue world. Feeling slightly uncomfortable, Li Xiaobai drove the golden chariot slowly towards the surface.
“Damn it, I’ve been tricked. The map wasn’t drawn like this at all!”
Li Xiaobai emerged cursing, holding a piece of paper in his hand. According to the map, past the corridor was supposed to be the entrance to a grand hall, where Earth Dragon Grass could be found. But instead of any grand hall, all he saw was a pond—this old man really did some shoddy work, utterly misleading!
Comparing the map carefully with his surroundings, Li Xiaobai slowly began to make sense of things. This place matched another cold pond indicated on the map, within which resided a Snake King whose breath could freeze mountains and rivers. If he could kill it and take its heart, the benefits would be immense.
“Hiss, seems like this is the cold pond he was talking about. The place is right, but the location is drawn incorrectly. Why did Xiao Lao Di come up with such a map?”
Li Xiaobai muttered to himself. Just then, a huge shadow rapidly enlarged from beneath his feet.
“Roar!”
A shocking beastly roar trembled the bottom of the pond, and a water column shot skyward followed by a Snake King emerging from it, exuding a cold aura.
This Snake King, rather than resembling a snake, was nearly transmuting into a dragon. Its body covered with tough scales and crests, its head fierce and sharp, and its triangular eyes emitting a ghostly blue light, it looked quite imposing.
“Is this the Snake King? I wonder what realm it’s in?”
Li Xiaobai, eyeing the giant serpent, swept his longsword horizontally, a dark terrifying blade of Sword Intent slashing towards its vital spot.
“Roar!”
The Snake King exhaled, releasing a dense frosty breath attempting to freeze the blade of Sword Intent, while simultaneously its gigantic tail whipped towards Li Xiaobai.
[Attribute Point +1,000,000!]
Li Xiaobai’s gaze sharpened—this was a Snake King of the Heavenly Immortal Realm!
He continually unleashed Sword Intent, sweeping the cold Qi from the void.
In the void, the Bronze Ice Essence and Huo Yun Swords encircled the Snake King tightly, trapping it as a setting sun slowly rose from the pond, turning the dusky blue cave fiery red.
Ice Essence Sword swayed in the void, the pond’s surface entirely frozen over, crystallizing into frost, while the scorching Qi from above swept across as the Huo Yun Sword turned the area blazing red.
“Surround and kill it!”
Li Xiaobai commanded, and the three types of Sword Intent burst forth with a stunning blade of light slashing towards the Snake King, forcing it to retreat step by step.
Its frosty breath was completely countered by the Ice Essence and Huo Yun, and under the effect of the Dusk Sword Evocation, its movements became noticeably slower.
“Roar!”
The Snake King twisted its body, shaking off the three swords and diving deep into the pond, seeking to regroup and use its home advantage to eliminate the intruders.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
In the cold pond, streams of water arrows shot out, directly aiming for Li Xiaobai’s forehead.
[Attribute Point +300,000…]
[Attribute Point +300,000…]
[Attribute Point +300,000…]
The Snake King had encountered a fierce enemy and wanted to hide and wage a war of attrition.
“Looks tough, but why is it fighting so sneakily? Thinking you can just hide in there and I won’t be able to handle you?”
Li Xiaobai shook his head, reversed his wrist, and took out a string of mud balls. He threw the Star of Earthly Explosions into the frosty pool, where they collided with each other and rapidly expanded by absorbing the power within the pool, sweeping through the entire area with a heart-palpitating aura.
In the frosty pool, the mud balls continued to expand and violently explode. The rampant Immortal Yuan Power caused the earth to shake, and although a single Star of Earthly Explosion might not injure the Snake King, the combined power of a string of them exploding together could definitely harm this Heavenly Immortal Realm Demonic Beast.
The terrifying aura gushed forth incessantly, stirring up thousands of waves.
[Attribute Points +800,000…]
[Attribute Points +800,000…]
[Attribute Points +800,000…]
Explosions echoed continuously as the System Attribute Points on the panel kept fluctuating.
Every wave was equivalent to a full-strength strike from an Earth Immortal Realm cultivator.
“Hiss hiss!”
Countless water snakes fled in all directions within the frosty pool, but none spared from the power of the explosions, their corpses surfacing, devoid of life.
“Roar!”
At the bottom of the frosty pool, the Snake King roared and burst out of the water in agony, twisting painfully. Li Xiaobai had just thrown down several tens of Stars of Earthly Explosions, and even now, the bottom of the pool continued to resound with explosions, the shockwaves mutilating the tail of the Snake King.
“Trying to come up? Hit it back down for me!”
Li Xiaobai casually commanded as he pointed at the soaring Snake King. Three swords immediately besieged it, Sword Intent sweeping wildly. Although it didn’t cause much damage, it forcefully suppressed the beast back into the frosty pool.
The water was stained blood-red, scales scattered and splashed. The Snake King was battered beyond recognition.
Though the frosty pool was originally the safest place, it had now become a prison that trapped it.
Moments later, the explosions gradually subsided, and the frosty pool regained its calm, only the damaged mountain walls around telling the tales of the previous tempest.
“That should do it!”
Li Xiaobai waved his longsword, unleashing the Demon-Sealing Sword Evocation that turned the pool black.
At the bottom of the pool, unable to endure any longer, the Snake King propelled a series of splashes towards the surface, swiftly twisting its body, trying to escape through the tunnel.
“Flesh Egg Strike!”
The golden chariot slammed into the Snake King, crushing it along the way. Li Xiaobai kept slashing out with Demon-Sealing Sword Evocations, depleting the Snake King’s strength. Within a few breaths, the Snake King was on its last gasp, its eyes gradually losing their sparkle.
“It’s finally dead.”
Li Xiaobai sighed deeply. Now possessing three ancient swords along with the Divine Artifact like the Stars of Earthly Explosions, he could forcefully exhaust a Heavenly Immortal Realm creature, even though it required a considerable investment. But for him now, worth billions, it was merely a drop in the ocean!
“Frosty pool Snake King, having molted three times, all its essence concentrated in its heart. Extract the heart, consume it slowly, and refine it for immense benefits.”
Following the information written on the map, Li Xiaobai commanded the three ancient swords to dissect the Snake King’s body and extracted its heart, a sapphire-like radiant and transparent pearl emanating a rich Frost Qi. Holding it in his hand, the Attribute Points were increasing by 100,000 points every moment.
This was a significant item, if handled well, it could fetch a good price!
Just as Li Xiaobai was about to store it away, at that moment, a slender hand unexpectedly emerged and smoothly, naturally took the sapphire from his hand.
“Who! Who dares to steal my treasure!”
Li Xiaobai flew into a rage, turning his head only to catch his breath in surprise.
Out of nowhere, snow began to fall in the void. A familiar figure drifted in the air, dressed in a splendid robe, holding a deep blue oil-paper umbrella, her face cold as frost — it was none other than Wu Chengjue, who, after taking the Snake King’s heart, didn’t pause for a moment, floating away like a graceful blue fairy.
“Kid, you are still young. You have no experience; you don’t understand. This is very deep water. Everything in this big tomb is dangerous. You can’t handle this snake; let Sister handle it for you.”
“Damn, it’s Senior Wu!”
Li Xiaobai took a few steps in pursuit, but she had already vanished from his sights.
“Damn, I’ve been played. This woman must have been lurking in the shadows, waiting for me to kill the Snake King and extract its heart before swooping in to steal it! Such a high-level figure doing such a low deed; doesn’t her conscience hurt?”
Li Xiaobai’s brow twitched. He had gone through the trouble of killing the Snake King, only to end up benefiting someone else.
Forget it, Wu Chengjue was a big shot not to be provoked. Fortunately, there was still a corpse of the Snake King left, which should still be worth some money after its moltings.
Turning to look at the shore, Li Xiaobai suddenly froze. Now the shore was completely empty; not only was the Snake King’s corpse gone, but there was not even a scale in sight.
“Damn, not even the corpse was spared? At least let me have a sip of the soup!”
