Chapter 264 Easy solution
Faced with Ling Feng's blatant provocation, how could Snake Blood, as the patriarch of the Sea Serpent Clan, easily show weakness?
Even though he sensed danger from Ling Feng, he had no choice but to accept Ling Feng's challenge.
Snake-scented man spoke with a grave expression:
"It was indeed our fault that we rashly attacked the formation you set up today. I wonder what your intentions are? Please explain your reasoning."
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng calmly replied:
"I didn't have any particular thoughts, but you attacked my formation without cause, so you should give me an explanation."
Upon hearing this, Snake-Scented sighed inwardly, knowing that Ling Feng had made up his mind to fight him.
As the patriarch of the sea serpent clan, he also possessed his own inherent arrogance, and immediately snorted coldly and said sharply:
"Hmph! Since you're pressing us so hard, let's not waste any more words and settle this with our fighting skills!"
Ling Feng smiled slightly and said loudly:
"Exactly what I want!"
Before the words had even finished, the two seemed to be of one mind, and attacked almost simultaneously.
With a flick of his right hand, Snake Blood produced a long whip that was entirely emerald green and gleamed with a chilling light.
Immediately afterwards, he exerted force with his arm and swung it fiercely at Ling Feng without hesitation.
In an instant, the long whip, like a nimble venomous snake, streaked through the air like a dazzling emerald green ribbon, carrying a sharp whistling sound as it swept straight toward Ling Feng.
Ling Feng stood tall and straight, his gaze as cold as frost. Facing the fierce attack, Ling Feng remained calm and composed, merely waving his hand casually, as if he were just shooing away an annoying mosquito.
But in that seemingly casual wave, the fierce attack vanished instantly, as if it had never existed.
At the same time, Ling Feng casually raised his right hand again and then unleashed the Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Hand!
Instantly, the Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Hand triggered a strange change in the world.
The once clear sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, a strong wind blew, and the sound of lightning and thunder was incessant.
As Ling Feng's hand gestures changed, an enormous hand appeared out of thin air, slowly pressing down from the sky like a blot out the sun.
This giant hand shone with a dark golden light, its patterns were clearly visible, and it exuded a terrifying aura that sent chills down one's spine.
The sea serpents looked up in terror at the giant hand that was closing in from above, a sense of indescribable fear and despair rising within them.
The overwhelming pressure made them feel as insignificant as ants, utterly powerless to resist.
Snake-like eyes widened, staring in disbelief at the giant hand above his head.
He never expected that Ling Feng could so easily neutralize his attack and even unleash such a powerful move.
At this moment, feeling the immense pressure emanating from the giant hand in the void, Snake Blood felt his hair stand on end and cold sweat pour down his face.
Faced with this devastating power, Snake Blood realized for the first time how insignificant he was.
He suddenly felt immense regret, wondering why he had impulsively engaged in combat with such a formidable opponent as Ling Feng, simply because of a momentary concern for saving face.
However, it was too late for regrets now. The giant hand had already taken shape, standing in mid-air like a towering mountain, and that opportunity had locked them all in place.
Now that things have come to this, even if Snake-like Blood felt deep regret, there was nothing he could do to change the situation.
Nevertheless, despite the seemingly irresistible giant hand, Snake Blood still harbored a sliver of hope deep down.
Without hesitation, he roared at the crowd of his people behind him:
"Everyone, do it together!"
In fact, he didn't need to say anything; the many experts of the sea serpent clan behind him were already on high alert and quickly took out their respective magical treasures.
Each of them looked solemn and used all their skills to deal with the giant hand in the sky.
In an instant, a dazzling array of spells attacked the giant hand in the sky.
But all their efforts were in vain. These attacks hit the giant hand like tickles, having no effect whatsoever.
When the giant hand slammed down with overwhelming force, the impact was simply beyond imagination.
A deafening roar resounded, as if the heavens and earth trembled.
Immediately afterwards, it was as if a nuclear bomb had been dropped into calm waters, creating a towering wave hundreds of feet high.
Faced with this terrifying onslaught, the experts of the Sea Serpent Clan appeared so small and fragile.
After all, the strongest among them was only at the Golden Immortal realm.
In the blink of an eye, apart from Snake Crimson who barely managed to hold on thanks to his profound cultivation, the other sea serpents were instantly annihilated by this earth-shattering attack.
Moreover, even if Snake Spirit barely survived, he would be severely injured and on the verge of death.
Seeing this scene, even Ling Feng, who had personally unleashed this earth-shattering attack, couldn't help but feel somewhat astonished.
He truly hadn't expected his move to possess such astonishing power, capable of causing such devastating consequences.
However, although Ling Feng was quite surprised by the result, he did not feel any regret.
He knew very well that if he were in a disadvantageous position today, his fate would be far more tragic than that of these sea serpent people.
Immediately, Ling Feng sensed that the snake was not quite dead yet, so he prepared to eliminate it completely.
However, Snake Blood seemed to have guessed Ling Feng's intentions, and its survival instincts drove it to use its trump card technique—the Blood Escape Technique—without regard for anything else.
In an instant, the seawater on the spot turned crimson, as if a blood-red flower was blooming in the deep sea.
The venomous smell vanished instantly, thanks to the power of the blood.
Ling Feng was taken aback by what he saw. He had never expected that Snake Scent would have such a bizarre way of escaping, and he was caught off guard for a moment.
He quickly spread his divine sense around, trying to find traces of the snake's scent.
Unfortunately, apart from the ordinary creatures swimming in the sea, there was no trace of snake odor.
After a fruitless search, Ling Feng shook his head helplessly and sighed inwardly:
"Alright, let's let this snake escape for now. Although it's true that if you don't kill the snake, it will cause trouble later, it's extremely dangerous outside right now, so it's more important to protect ourselves first."
Thinking of this, Ling Feng gave up the idea of continuing to pursue the snake's scent.
After tidying up, Ling Feng chose to go back to seclusion.
Looking at the snake again, although it successfully escaped using the Blood Escape Technique, it paid a heavy price for it.
Its original formidable strength has now dwindled to almost nothing, reduced to only one or two tenths of its former power.
To make matters worse, almost all the powerful members of the sea serpent clan who had accompanied it had perished, leaving only its greatly weakened clan leader, who was now like a stray dog, barely clinging to life.
First, Aizi died tragically at Ling Feng's hands, and then many experts of the Sea Serpent Clan also lost their lives at his hands.
Faced with this situation, Ling Feng became the source of an indelible hatred in Snake's heart, a hatred that was so deep that it was etched into his very bones.
Despite being at its last gasp, Snake Blood resolutely used the Blood Escape Technique once again with its last remaining strength, speeding towards the territory of the Sea Serpent Clan.
Now, how could he dare to swagger back as he used to?
After all, his strength had been completely depleted, leaving him with only one-tenth or one-twelfth of his original strength.
In this situation, even if he were to encounter a slightly more powerful opponent, it would probably be beyond his ability to handle.
After overcoming numerous hardships, Snake Blood finally succeeded in returning to the territory of the Sea Serpent Clan.
However, at this moment, he was on the verge of exhaustion, with only a faint breath left to sustain his life.
Time was of the essence, leaving him no room for hesitation or delay. Snake-like teeth gritted, and with his last breath, he headed straight for the forbidden area of their sea serpent clan.
This is a deep abyss hidden at the bottom of the sea, shrouded in darkness all year round, where sunlight can hardly penetrate the barriers of the deep sea.
However, such a harsh environment does not pose any threat to the sea serpents that live in the ocean.
Snakey struggled to reach the deepest part of the abyss, where a sea serpent several times larger than Snakey itself was coiled up!
Moreover, the aura emanating from this giant snake was incredibly powerful, far surpassing any mere snake odor.
What is particularly striking is that this giant python is covered with a layer of shimmering golden scales, as if it were cast in gold, shining brilliantly.
This is the target that Snake Blood is looking for this time—their ancestor Snake Peak, who has already reached the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm!
At the same time, Snake Peak, who had been in a deep slumber, sensed the scent of snakes and slowly awoke from his seclusion.
When Snake Blood finally arrived before the Ancestor, it was as if Snake Blood had grasped at the last straw, and it shouted at the top of its lungs:
"Ancestor, help!"
Before he could finish speaking, Snake-like eyes rolled back, and he lost consciousness and fainted.
After all, Snake Blood had already used the Blood Escape Technique twice before, which consumed a great deal of his own essence and vital energy, and his physical condition was already on the verge of collapse.
If it weren't for his strong will to survive deep inside him, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold on until now.
Seeing this, the Serpent Peak opened its enormous maw, large enough to swallow the heavens and the earth, and suddenly spat out a powerful and boundless magical force containing endless vitality and healing power.
This magical power, like a soft, warm curtain of light, quickly enveloped the unconscious snake-like creature completely.
Nourished and sustained by this mysterious magical power, the horrific wounds all over Snake's body began to heal at a visible speed.
However, although external injuries can be repaired quickly, it is not easy to restore the original power lost due to the overuse of the Blood Escape Technique.
Time passed quietly, and after a short wait, Snake finally let out a soft groan, then slowly opened its eyes, which had been closed for a long time, and its consciousness gradually returned from its confused state.
After he slowly regained consciousness, he immediately began to admit his mistakes:
"Ancestor! Your unfilial descendant has provoked a powerful enemy for our Sea Serpent Clan, causing our clan to suffer heavy losses. Please punish us, Ancestor!"
Seeing Snake Fragrance's appearance, Snake Peak frowned deeply, his face darkening as if water could drip from it. He coldly snorted and said:
"Hmph! Tell me in detail, what exactly happened?"
When Snake-Scented heard the ancestor's question, his body trembled involuntarily. However, he knew that he could not hide anything at this moment, so he took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and began to report the whole story to the ancestor.
After Snake Blood finished explaining the whole story, Snake Peak was both furious and angry.
On the one hand, he was furious that these ignorant descendants dared to trespass into that forbidden area, and on the other hand, he was angry that Ling Feng didn't give him face.
After all, he was a powerful expert at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, and his reputation was renowned throughout the East Sea region.
But now, Ling Feng doesn't take him seriously at all, which is a blatant provocation against their sea serpent clan!
However, despite his anger and resentment, Snake Peak was a seasoned veteran and did not lose his composure.
Judging from Snake's description, the opponent's strength is clearly far superior to Snake's.
Without fully understanding the opponent's background, Snake Peak dared not make a move rashly.
Furthermore, although the number of their deceased descendants was considerable, it was not enough to cripple the vast sea serpent race.
However, this does not mean that the matter can be easily forgotten.
Snake Blood has already remembered this grudge, and he will definitely get his revenge in the future.
Moreover, he is now at a critical juncture in breaking through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and he will not concern himself with other matters unless absolutely necessary.
He then instructed Snakefish to remain in seclusion here to recuperate, and he himself also entered a state of seclusion once again.
