Chapter 10 - Chapter 10 Battle Snake Demon (II)

The Giant Spirit Snake stared at Guo Xingyue with its eyes wide open, unable to understand how this little fellow with mediocre cultivation skills could evade its pursuit. Although the Giant Spirit Snake was a demon who had not yet learned to speak, its intelligence was no inferior to that of the cultivators. If it could ascend to the Demon Realm and transform into a human form, it would be able to speak human language, and its cultivation progress would be much faster. At this moment, the Giant Spirit Snake was almost at the time of crossing the calamity. It was counting on the Seventh-Rank Lotus Platform to help it cross the calamity and naturally would not let go of anyone who approached the Seventh-Rank Lotus Platform.

Guo Xingyue didn't intend to wait any longer to be beaten. He took the initiative to launch an attack. He directed his flying sword to deftly avoid the interception of several lightning bolts released by the Giant Spirit Snake and accurately shot it at the right eye of the Giant Spirit Snake. Just as it was about to hit the target, the Giant Spirit Snake closed its eyes. The flying sword hit the eyelids of the Giant Spirit Snake, and a cluster of sparks burst out. The Giant Spirit Snake was unharmed, and the flying sword was bounced back. The Giant Spirit Snake opened its eyes, stuck out its snake tongue, and its huge mouth curled to one side as if mocking Guo Xingyue for his wasted efforts. Guo Xingyue withdrew his flying sword and looked at the Giant Spirit Snake, not knowing what to do for a moment. He thought to himself, "I can't attack, and I can't escape. How long can I just keep hiding?"

The Giant Spirit Snake didn't care about Guo Xingyue's daze. Thick lightning bolts, dexterous snake tongues, huge and powerful snake tails, thick snake bodies, and the huge snake head all joined the attack and launched a furious assault on Guo Xingyue. Guo Xingyue activated the Chan Ding Xin Gong and always maintained a calm mind. He dodged and evaded among the various attacks. After evading a swipe of the snake's tail, he saw another lightning bolt approaching him, followed by a snake tongue. Knowing that he couldn't avoid it anymore, he took a deep breath and hugged the snake's tail, swaying with the snake's tail in the air. The Giant Spirit Snake launched another lightning bolt, and Guo Xingyue simply climbed up the snake's back along the huge snake tail and quickly ran towards the snake's head. The Giant Spirit Snake struggled desperately in the air, trying to throw Guo Xingyue off, but Guo Xingyue tightly hugged the snake's body and refused to let go. After rolling for a while, the Giant Spirit Snake saw that it didn't work and swung its long snake tongue to strike Guo Xingyue on the back.

Guo Xingyue saw the snake tongue coming and hurriedly used his hands and feet to climb a few more steps. The snake's tongue hit his body, and he trembled with pain. Guo Xingyue took the opportunity to climb onto the snake's head, released his flying sword, and launched a furious attack at the place he estimated to be the snake's eye. Although because the snake's body was constantly rolling, all the attacks did not completely fall on one point, the eyelids of the snake were the thinnest part of the snake's body. This furious attack finally pierced the right eyelid of the snake. A black liquid gushed out of the Giant Spirit Snake's eye along with purple blood. The Giant Spirit Snake screamed in pain and contracted its whole body. As soon as Guo Xingyue saw the snake's tail approaching the snake's head, he hurriedly jumped off the snake's back, but he was still hit by the snake's tail on his right arm. With a loud snap, Guo Xingyue's right arm was broken and hung limply by his side. His infant soul was also shocked, and the infant soul in his dantian suddenly spat out a mouthful of golden liquid and immediately became somewhat listless.

Guo Xingyue barely controlled his body shape and landed on the oasis. He sat down hard not far from Ye Mingcheng. Ye Mingcheng's injuries were more serious than Guo Xingyue's. When he saw Guo Xingyue also fall down, he quickly took out a medicinal pill and handed it to Guo Xingyue. Guo Xingyue didn't say anything and took it and quickly swallowed it. The two of them didn't dare to start healing at this time. They just watched the Giant Spirit Snake coiling and writhing in the air. The Giant Spirit Snake was probably in great pain. Its huge body sometimes curled up into a ball and sometimes stretched out its whole body with all its strength. A huge hiss came from its mouth. After a while, the Giant Spirit Snake finally stopped and stared at the two people on the oasis with its single eye.

Guo and Ye looked at each other in dismay. At this moment, neither of them had the ability to escape, let alone the ability to fight. They all had only one thought in their hearts: It's over! As long as the giant snake launches another lightning bolt, both of them will die on the spot. Electric light was twining around the Giant Spirit Snake's horns, and a lightning bolt was about to strike the two of them. Suddenly, the Giant Spirit Snake stopped and looked up at the sky. A huge dark cloud was rapidly gathering in the sky. The dark cloud was getting darker and darker, and the electric light in the cloud was faintly visible - the Giant Spirit Snake's great calamity had arrived.

Ye Mingcheng grabbed Guo Xingyue's left hand and said anxiously, "Let's leave here quickly. If a chain of calamities occurs, no one will be able to survive." Ye and Guo rolled and crawled quickly to leave the oasis and run away. The Giant Spirit Snake, on the one hand, had to go all out to cross the calamity, and on the other hand, it was also afraid that it couldn't kill Guo and Ye with one blow and cause a chain of calamities. So it just let the two leave the oasis.

After Guo and Ye had gone far away, the Giant Spirit Snake landed on a small hill in the oasis and coiled its whole body, leaving only its huge snake head exposed. It looked up at the dark cloud in the sky. Between the dark clouds, a huge yin-yang fish quickly appeared, and a huge lightning bolt struck down. The Giant Spirit Snake also greeted it with a lightning bolt. With a loud bang in the air, both lightning bolts disappeared.

Four consecutive lightning strikes were offset by the Giant Spirit Snake's lightning. The sixth lightning strike dispersed the Giant Spirit Snake's lightning, but the remaining lightning was caught by the Giant Spirit Snake's snake tongue. The yin-yang fish in the sky seemed to stop for a long time. Then, a lightning strike that was five times stronger than the sixth lightning strike struck down again. Neither the Giant Spirit Snake's lightning nor its snake tongue could block this lightning strike. The huge body of the Giant Spirit Snake was hit by this lightning strike and rolled down from the top of the mountain. Immediately after that, the eighth huge thunderbolt struck down again. The Giant Spirit Snake's originally coiled body suddenly spread out, and its huge snake head faced the thunderbolt. With its big mouth open, it spat out a bead the size of a bowl and met the descending thunderbolt.

This huge bead was exactly the Giant Spirit Snake's natal yuan dan. The thunderbolt struck the yuan dan with a loud bang, and after hitting several cracks on the yuan dan, it disappeared. The Giant Spirit Snake's yuan dan was shattered, and it was immediately severely injured. It swallowed the yuan dan back into its stomach. A purple blood arrow shot out of the Giant Spirit Snake's big mouth, and its black snake tongue hung limply by its mouth. The upper body of the Giant Spirit Snake gradually transformed into a human form. Its huge head grew a huge human face with a single eye, and then two arms grew. Only the lower body was still a snake body. If it could survive the last lightning strike, the Giant Spirit Snake could completely transform into a human form. However, the Giant Spirit Snake was already exhausted and obviously couldn't survive the last thunder calamity.

The Giant Spirit Snake dragged its thick snake body and struggled hard to crawl towards the small lake, trying to pick the Seventh-Rank Lotus Platform to prolong its life. If the Giant Spirit Snake had not fought with Guo and Ye or had not been injured before crossing the calamity, it might have been able to hold on until it picked the Seventh-Rank Lotus Platform to prolong its life and thus cross the great calamity and ascend to the Demon Realm. However, now everything was impossible. A thick lightning bolt accurately struck the Giant Spirit Snake. The huge body of the Giant Spirit Snake was hit and bounced three zhang high from the ground and then fell heavily, hitting the ground and making a big pit.
