Chapter 91: Snake Transformation
The big snake in the distance saw the "Night Beasts Picture" in Shi Yan's hand, and its eyes, as big as a water tank, flashed with greed. It was obvious that this spirit snake recognized the night map in Shi Yan's hand. He suddenly jumped up, rushed out of the lake, splashing several feet of water, and rushed over quickly, opening his bloody mouth and spitting out a thick and fishy black air.
Mo Zixuan turned his body, and his three thousand black silk threads fluttered leisurely. His waist was like flowing silk, and he was as swift as a flying duck, floating like a god. He walked lightly on the waves, his silk socks were covered with dust, and his feet were wearing silk shoes. He moved lightly with lotus steps and kicked out the flying sword [Qingsi]. With a whoosh, the Qingsi turned into a black light and flew forward, as graceful as a swimming dragon, and slashed at the big snake.
Now is not the time to hide one's strength. Shi Yan's expression is grim and solemn. He unfolds the "Night Beasts Map" and shouts: "Long live the heaven and earth, and all beasts roam at night. Out!"
In the night map, four black shadows emitted wisps of black gas, which quickly formed four animal shadows in the air.
Among the four animal shadows, a large bird with huge wings spread is the most obvious, followed by the black snake that just entered the picture. The other two are blurry and it is difficult to identify their species.
Four black shadows rushed towards the black gas, which was the poisonous mist of the giant snake. However, sticking to the black shadows had no effect at all. Instead, they were dispersed and shattered by the four black shadows and eaten.
clang!
The Qingsi Sword slashed at the snake, hovering around it, and the sharp blade slashed on the thick scales of the snake. The sound of metal collision was heard, and large pieces of sparks splashed. Although it looked extremely powerful, it did not break into the snake's scales at all. This defense was really solid.
The big snake opened its mouth mockingly and hissed at Mo Zixuan. It opened its bloody mouth and sucked deeply, forming a black whirlwind that sucked in. Suddenly, sand and rocks flew everywhere, making the Qingsi Sword tremble continuously, like a kite with a broken string, swaying and flying up and down. Obviously, the Qingsi Sword was affected!
The Qingsi Sword shook violently, making tinkling sounds, as if it was trying to escape from Mo Zixuan's restraints uncontrollably.
Mo Zixuan's beautiful face was pale as hell, his eyes were cold and chilling, he gave a light shout, and quickly flipped his hands, his fingers like lotus flowers, instantly forming hundreds of hand seals to form a Taoist pattern.
Dao patterns refer to the hand seals used in magic formulas. One hundred hand seals form a Dao pattern.
"Qinghua is as soft as a finger!"
The trembling Qingsi Sword paused for a moment, and a black light flashed from the sword guard, spreading to the sword body and hilt. Wherever the black light passed, the metallic luster gradually weakened, adding a layer of softness and delicacy. A hard wide-mouthed flying sword, after the black light spread, turned out to be as soft as black silk. From a distance, it looked like a colorless silk fluttering and swirling around the big snake.
"Entangle!"
The black hair suddenly became longer, and the two ends were wrapped around the body of the big snake. They were suddenly pulled tight and tightly entangled with the body of the big snake.
The black silk was embedded in the gaps of the scales, and immediately black blood splashed out from the gaps of the scales.
"Hold on!" Shi Yan's face was stern, and he flew down, "Yin Yan? Lingxi Finger!"
Shi Yan seized the opportunity, landed on the snake's back, and stabbed it down with a finger carrying a blue flame.
With a hissing sound, a wisp of green smoke emerged from the snake's scales. Lingxi's finger actually broke through the snake's scale defense and pierced into the snake's flesh.
The big snake felt pain, howled towards the sky, and shook its body violently, trying to throw Shi Yan off its back.
"Hit the snake at the seven-inch point!" Shi Yan landed exactly at the seven-inch point of the big snake. He held the snake scales tightly with one hand and took out a sharp knife with the other hand. "Swish--" the knife stabbed into the snake flesh, and black smelly blood spurted out.
"Ah——" Shi Yan correctly and wisely grasped the lifeline of the big snake, which made it very annoyed and suddenly became extremely manic.
The angry roar of the big snake spread far away, and the whole space seemed to shake. The birds in the woods were startled and flapped their wings, while the beasts nearby also spread their hooves and ran away from this dangerous area.
Because the big snake's back was covered with slippery moss, Shi Yan slipped as it swung and shook, and he stumbled and fell.
The big snake pulled hard the black silk that had turned into black silk, leaned down, opened its big mouth, and spewed out a scarlet tongue rapidly, like a long spear, piercing towards Shi Yan.
The speed was too fast. Shi Yan only saw a red shadow flash by. His arm felt a pain and was pierced by the snake's tongue.
"Ah!" Shi Yan watched helplessly as the scarlet needle pierced his arm, and bright red blood spurted out, splashing red all over Shi Yan's clothes and face. The pain made his facial features twist into a ball.
The blood that was gushing on his face slowly dripped down from his head and flowed through his eyes. Shi Yan's right eye was dyed red by blood, and everything he saw in the outside world was bright red. What kind of scenery was this with red all over his eyes?
"Shi Yan!" Mo Zixuan's long and slightly curled eyelashes trembled, and her vision was covered with a thin layer of mist. She hurried to Shi Yan's side, pursed her lips tightly, and raised two round moons in her palms, hitting the snake's tongue fiercely.
The big snake snorted coldly, and the black fog that had been floating for a long time suddenly blocked the front and wrapped up the double moon. The full moon disappeared without a trace! The black fog turned around, turned around, and rushed towards Mo Zixuan.
Mo Zixuan's eyebrows jumped and he stared coldly at the black fog.
What on earth is this black fog? It actually has self-awareness and seems to have very strange abilities.
She took quick lotus steps, retreated unwillingly, and with a wave of her white hand, she called back her black hair.
The black silk let go of the big snake's body, wrapped around her right hand, and turned back into a black flying sword.
On the other side, the four black shadows of spirit beasts that appeared from the "Night Beasts" finally devoured the black air and returned to protect their master.
The phantom of the Peng bird cried out loudly, and spit out a bolt of lightning from its mouth, cutting off the snake's tongue. The thunderbolt climbed up along the severed tongue, exploded violently in its mouth, and blew off several of the snake's sharp teeth.
The phantom of the Peng bird picked up Shi Yan and flew back to the cave. Another unknown phantom opened its mouth and spit out a paste-like substance, which it carefully applied to the wound on Shi Yan's arm. The wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. After a while, Shi Yan looked at his arm without even a scar in amazement. He looked at it carefully for a while, and it was indeed healed.
Now, the way he looked at the four black shadows changed.
I originally thought that the "Night Beasts" was not that great, but now it seems that this "Night Beasts" is really too powerful! Not only can it absorb the souls of hundreds of beasts, but it can also command the souls to fight, and it can also restore the abilities of the beasts in their lifetime!
Shi Yan was secretly delighted and opened the "Night Beasts" to see hundreds of phantoms of all sizes. In other words, if these hundreds of phantoms were filled with ink, wouldn't it mean that he could command a herd of beasts? Haha!
The big snake turned towards Shi Yan angrily. When he saw the "Hundred Beasts at Night" in Shi Yan's hand, his pupils shrank noticeably, emitting a fiery and greedy light.
The black fog that was entangled and fighting with Mo Zixuan retreated rapidly, floating beside the big snake, and followed the big snake's gaze to the "Picture of Beasts at Night" in Shi Yan's hand.
Mo Zixuan also retreated quickly and returned to Shi Yan's side, looking at the snake and the fog vigilantly.
She didn't recognize the "Picture of Beasts Walking at Night" in Shi Yan's hand, so she didn't pay any attention to it. She was just wondering why the snake and the strange fog kept staring at Shi Yan.
At this moment, the big snake suddenly opened its mouth wide, and the black mist drilled into the big snake's body through its mouth.
"Killing each other? No!"
When Shi Yan and Mo Zixuan were confused, the big snake changed.
Wisps of black mist emerged from the gaps in the scales, surrounding him and wrapping him inside, while his injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. The edges and corners of the inky black scales became more distinct, protruding into sharp barbs, and a touch of enchanting green was added to the back of the armor. The four horns on the snake's head seemed to be stained with blood, with an additional layer of ochre-colored membrane.
A tumor bulged on the forehead of the big snake. It grew bigger and bigger, and then it cracked open with a "pop", revealing a red and white eyeball. The eyeball spun around, then stopped, staring at the yellow scroll with gold edges in Shi Yan's hand.
After the giant snake transformed, it exuded a strong black evil aura. The red pupil of the round eye on its forehead expanded and contracted, staring intently at the "Night Beasts Picture" in his hand.
"'A Hundred Beasts Parade Day and Night'!" A hoarse and weak voice came out from the mouth of the big snake. The voice seemed to come from underground, hoarse and cold, which made people shudder. "Well, it's the 'A Hundred Beasts Parade Day and Night' of the Tiandi Wanshou Furnace. Haha, God is really helping me. Such a magical object is actually here! Hiss..."
The transformation continued, but Shi Yan felt a great danger. The dangerous aura emanating from the snake was stronger than before the transformation. The snake before was more like a shell without thoughts, but now it seemed to have intelligence and looked more agile! Especially the eye on his forehead, which was so strange that it made people creepy.
Not only him, Mo Zixuan also had this feeling in his heart. She took out a bronze mirror, adjusted her slender hands, and gently hung it on Shi Yan's chest. She looked at him with a complicated look, then lowered her eyelids, secretly said to be careful, and was about to rush forward with the Qingsi sword in her hand.
Shi Yan grabbed Mo Zixuan's plain and soft hair and pulled her back, "What are you doing! Do you want to die?!"
Mo Zixuan's eyes lightly swept over the hand held by Shi Yan, with a trace of sadness in her eyes. She took a deep breath, raised her head and looked directly at Shi Yan, her almond-shaped eyes widened, "Let go!"
She was still trying to be brave at this time. There was a little anger in Shi Yan's dark brown eyes. He looked at her stubbornly without backing off. "No!"
Looking into Shi Yan's eyes, Mo Zixuan seemed to see the deep anxiety and worry in his eyes. His heart was slightly shaken, but his expression was still as cold as ice, not revealing any inner fluctuations. Mo Zixuan stretched out his arms, trying to break free from Shi Yan's restraints, and said coldly, "Do you know what you are doing? Let go!"
"You are the one who doesn't understand. Let's find another way!" Shi Yan increased the strength in his hands.
"Let go, or I'll be rude to you!"
"Don't let go!" This woman is really desperate when she is stubborn! Shi Yan changed his usual smiling face, frowned, his eyes were about to emit fire, and roared in a low voice.
Mo Zixuan was stunned, biting her lips tightly, "You are really unreasonable!" She had nothing to say to Shi Yan, and slapped his palm hard, hitting the bronze mirror on his chest. The bronze mirror emitted a soft light, blocking her attack. Although Shi Yan was not injured, he was knocked back and flew out, hitting the mountain wall and groaning.
Mo Zixuan glanced at Shi Yan worriedly, but seeing that he was fine, he turned around and ignored him, then flew towards the big snake.
"Xiaokong, stop her!" An anxious voice came from behind.
"Ah!" The little monkey jumped into the air and grabbed Mo Zixuan with its little claws. The little monkey was an alien and had the strength to bear a mountain, but Mo Zixuan couldn't break free at once!
"Shi Yan! You!"
"Don't worry, Senior Sister. Look over there!" Shi Yan pointed at the lake below and said, "Look at the bottom of the lake. There is a shining object. Isn't that the water of Beichen?"
Mo Zixuan was stunned, and looked down. Sure enough, there was a particularly black spot in the center of the lake, and in the center of it, there was a bright spot that was as bright as a star. Using his eyesight, Mo Zixuan found that the drop of North Star Water was embedded in a long skull. This skull was undoubtedly a snake skull, and the snake skull kept emitting black mist.
