"Brother Lin, this Yin Ditch Pool is quite large. How exactly did the government's cultivators manage to suppress a low-level demon snake in it?"
Qin Hong shrugged, looked at the calm surface of the ditch in the distance, and said with a faint smile.
"How would I know?"
Lin Xiaofei looked at the huge ditch and pool in front of him, more than 500 meters away, frowned, and a ripple of emotion stirred in his heart.
In this place, he fought a great battle with Zhang Yugui and killed him. He originally wanted to throw Zhang Yugui's body into the water near the ditch, but he suspected that there was a strange beast in the water, so he buried Zhang Yugui's body in the soil of the space bead.
Fortunately, he didn't get close to the pool. Otherwise, if Zhang Shuhu hadn't told him that a low-level demon snake was being suppressed in the pool, he probably would have lost his life if he had approached the water and the demon snake had been startled and attacked him.
"That's right. None of us have ever been in contact with cultivators, so naturally we don't know how to suppress a demonic snake."
However, I've heard that demonic beasts are very powerful. If that demonic snake were to emerge from the pool, do you think Zhang Shuhu and Sect Leader Chen, with their combined strength, could kill it?
Qin Hong said with a curious expression.
"Since Zhang Shuhu dares to advocate killing the demon snake, he must be quite confident. In addition, our Sect Master Chen is one of the top experts in Qingshan Town, and with a group of powerful martial artists working together, we should be able to kill that demon snake."
However, I estimate that the demonic serpent might be very powerful; we'll probably need to fight it for hundreds of rounds.
Lin Xiaofei smiled slightly and said softly.
According to his understanding, some wild beasts can transform into powerful alien beasts and possess strength no weaker than a peak-level martial artist, while a snake beast that transforms into a demon is even more powerful.
At the same time, it reminded him of the time he went hunting a Stone Mountain Ant King with the old man Wang Qingliang. That ant king had just transformed into a strange beast, yet its body could resist terrifying magical attacks, which showed how powerful the strange beast was. Of course, the Stone Mountain Ant King itself had some special features, otherwise it would not have been able to withstand that white light flame spell.
This time is different. Patriarch Zhang is well-prepared, and with many martial artists coming together to kill the demon, there is naturally no problem.
Qin Hong nodded and stood aside, watching from a distance.
"The jungle near the Yingou Pool is as calm as ever, with no trace of the demon snake coming or going. It seems that the demon snake is still in the pool."
After listening to his subordinates' report, Sect Leader Chen Longhai spoke slowly.
A middle-aged man who came with Zhang Shuhu frowned and said, "
I personally investigated the area around the pool and found that the formation that was originally set up over the pool had shown signs of weakening.
"Most of the spiritual energy within the formation has dissipated. In another year or two, I estimate that the formation will dissipate on its own, or if the demonic serpent forcibly rams into the formation, it could emerge from the pool at any time."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of some high-ranking members of the Qingfeng Gang branch changed.
The person in front of them was named Wu Yang, a cultivator. Although his cultivation level was only at the fifth level of Qi Refining, he knew some techniques related to formations. Upon hearing Wu Yang's words, they immediately understood what was about to happen.
Are you sure that serpent could burst out at any moment?
Chen Longhai's eyes darted around, and he quickly asked.
"That should be the case, after all, the suppressive power of that formation is already very weak."
Wu Yang held a gleaming, spiritually imbued wooden sword in his hand, gesturing back and forth with it towards the ditch, his eyes fixed intently on the front as he spoke.
"Understood. Since the demonic snake is indeed still in the pool, let's begin."
Chen Longhai pondered for a moment and then said.
For this operation, he sent most of the disciples in the gang who had at least mid-stage strength, and Zhang Shuhu also sent a lot of people.
Soon, more than forty ordinary mid-stage martial artists, each carrying a sealed wooden bucket, arrived at the edge of the pool.
"Throw!"
At a command, more than forty wooden buckets were thrown out, and they broke as they landed in the pool.
Bright red blood gushed out of the wooden tub, instantly turning the entire pool of water crimson.
"What do you think of my method, Sect Leader Chen?"
Zhang Shuhu held a dark red longsword and said with a smile.
"Generally speaking, demonic snakes prefer to devour wild beasts and strange creatures. If a large amount of wild beast blood is poured into the pool, the demonic snake will likely smell this scent and come out of the pool."
Using this method to lure it out is indeed a good approach.
Chen Longhai smiled, his eyes fixed on the ditch in front of him, a weapon in his hand, ready to fight at any moment.
Glug! Glug!
Soon, bubbles began to rise from the pool.
Soon, the bubbles in the pool grew larger and larger, making a splashing sound.
Sudden!
Whoosh!
A huge spray of water rose from the surface and sprayed outwards.
boom!
A snake's head, as large as a water buffalo, suddenly burst out of the pool. It was completely dark, and its body was covered with dense, fist-sized fish scales. At the same time, it stirred up a large amount of water in the pool, splashing up.
Water sprayed skyward, then, like a torrential downpour, it scattered and dripped down, like spring rain, showering the nearby flowers, grass, and trees with sweet dew.
Some of the Qingfeng Gang disciples who were closer to the water were standing still before receiving instructions. They were suddenly splashed with water, getting soaked to the bone and looking like drowned rats.
At the same time, many disciples of the Qingfeng Gang were shocked, their eyes wide open, watching the giant snake rise into the sky from the pool.
The serpent's eyes, dark red like egg-sized gems, coldly stared at the group of people gathered near the pool. It opened its mouth wide, let out a roar, and revealed sharp, scimitar-like fangs.
Immediately afterwards, the demonic snake charged forward, its speed four or five times faster than a galloping wild horse, and its hundred-meter-long body quickly became visible.
From afar, the sight left everyone in awe. The serpent's eyes were icy cold, like the eyes of a demon, exuding a chilling aura.
"This serpent's body is enormous."
Qin Hong opened his mouth wide and exclaimed in surprise.
This was the first time he had ever seen such a huge serpent. If it weren't for his decent martial arts skills, he probably would have been terrified.
At the same time, seeing that Zhang Shuhu, Sect Leader Chen, and many others looked eager to try, he truly admired their courage.
"It is indeed quite big."
Lin Xiaofei muttered to himself, his heart pounding the moment the demonic snake charged out.
"Brothers, let's charge!"
Zhang Shuhu shouted, raised his long sword, took a step forward, and with the speed of an arrow, stepped on the flowers, grass and branches and rushed out.
Chen Longhai, who was standing nearby, also made a move and rushed towards the demonic snake.
Immediately afterwards, many martial artists grabbed their weapons and charged forward.
