A hundred meters away, a mountain peak slowly rose from the ravine beside it, without any sign of anything.
This mountain is flat, dark and dull.
"Snake Cave..."
Wang Pingbei was unaware of anything and was telling Xiao Chen about the snake cave.
And Xiao Chen... was holding a cigarette, feeling cold all over.
When he glanced over there just now, he thought it was a mountain, but when he looked again... this was not a mountain at all, it was clearly an extremely huge snake, and the flat peak was its head!
The black thing is not the rocks on the mountain, but its scales!
On the top of the mountain, two lantern-sized eyes were emitting faint light, staring at Xiao Chen and the spiritual root of heaven and earth on his shoulders.
The spiritual roots of heaven and earth seemed unaware of anything and drank wine leisurely.
"escape!"
Suddenly, Xiao Chen shouted loudly, the Xuanyuan Sword fell into his hand, he pulled Wang Pingbei, turned around and ran.
Although he didn't know how strong this giant snake was, but... to be able to grow so big, it must be very strong!
This is Tianjueyuan. If it didn’t have powerful strength, it would have been eaten by other strange beasts just because of its size!
So... just run away!
"ah?"
Wang Pingbei staggered and had not yet reacted.
However, when he saw Xiao Chen lose his composure, he immediately realized that there was danger and ran away as well.
"Xiao Chen, what's wrong?"
"Look back and you'll know what happened!"
After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he patted the spiritual root of heaven and earth on his shoulder. How come this little guy didn't notice the danger?
"belch……"
The Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth burped and looked at Xiao Chen with drunken eyes, wondering why he slapped him.
"Damn it, drinking really messes things up..."
Xiao Chen cursed inwardly, put the spiritual root of heaven and earth into the bone ring, and ran faster.
"ah……"
A scream was heard, and Wang Pingbei also saw the huge snake behind him, and cold sweat broke out all of a sudden.
He had never seen such a big snake in his life!
Not to mention him, even Xiao Chen had never seen such a big snake!
The snake that was guarding Lao Shen before was no match for the snake behind him.
That's the younger brother among younger brothers!
This snake... although its entire body is not exposed, its head alone can be mistaken for a mountain, which is enough to show how huge and terrifying it is.
"The Snake Cave...it must be the Snake Cave. It's the King of Snakes!"
Wang Pingbei ran and shouted.
"Snake King..."
Xiao Chen's heart sank. Did he really enter the Death Zone by mistake?
However, based on its size, it deserves the title of "Snake King".
"Xiao Chen, can we escape?"
Wang Pingbei shouted again.
"Will our speed be faster than it?"
"I just need to be faster than you."
Xiao Chen glanced at Wang Pingbei and said.
"Um?"
Wang Pingbei was stunned at first, then he understood, his face turned pale, and whoosh, his speed increased dramatically.
"Don't run away. Didn't you notice it didn't chase you?"
Xiao Chen slowed down and looked back.
Hundreds of meters away, the mountain had disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
However, Xiao Chen did not dare to be careless. This was truly a death zone. There was no way they could leave easily.
Not chasing may be more dangerous than chasing.
"Didn't...didn't chase after me?"
Wang Pingbei also stopped and turned his head to look, but the big snake was gone.
"Where did it go?"
"Who knows? Maybe it has shrunk back."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Let's go back and take a look."
"Go back and have a look? Are you crazy..."
Wang Pingbei's eyes widened. Why didn't he leave quickly before the snake king caught up with him? Instead, he was thinking of going back to take a look?
If this isn’t crazy, what is?
But thinking that he was now a prisoner, he stopped talking.
If he angered Xiao Chen and left him to feed the snakes, he would have no place to cry.
"Aren't you curious about where it went? Why didn't it come after us?"
As Xiao Chen spoke, he released his spiritual awareness to sense everything around him.
"I'm not curious at all, I just want to live."
Wang Pingbei shook his head vigorously.
"I think we should leave quickly before it catches up with us..."
"Maybe, there is some chance?"
Xiao Chen looked at the place where the big snake disappeared and said slowly.
"Chance?"
Wang Pingbei was stunned for a moment.
"Yes, what if there is a great opportunity?"
Xiao Chen nodded.
"But...but I still feel that no matter how great the opportunity is, it is not as important as life."
Wang Pingbei hesitated.
"The big snake just now is most likely the snake king of the snake cave... Even if we are not in the snake cave now, we are probably at the edge of the snake cave. Once we step into the snake cave, we will be dead."
"You mean, the snake king is fishing?"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows.
"Fishing? What kind of fish? There are no fish here, and there is no water."
Wang Pingbei was stunned and looked around.
“…”
Xiao Chen ignored Wang Pingbei. He didn't sense any danger.
As for fishing… he thought it was unlikely.
Even if you want to go fishing, as the snake king, you shouldn't go out yourself.
For such a powerful being, does he still need to resort to fishing?
"Am I overthinking it? It just passed by its territory, and it heard the noise, came out to take a look? And then went back?"
Xiao Chen looked strange.
"Is this a kind snake that doesn't eat people?"
Xiao Chen felt that this idea was unreliable... There was no such thing as a kind snake, it was impossible for it to be a vegetarian.
"You wait here, I'll go back and take a look."
Xiao Chen decided to go back and take a look. It couldn't have been an illusion just now. There was indeed a big snake there.
"Okay...be careful."
Wang Pingbei nodded. He didn’t care whether Xiao Chen lived or died. He was afraid that if Xiao Chen died, he would die too.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded, holding the Xuanyuan Sword, and slowly walked back.
He entered the bone ring with his mind, glanced at the spiritual root of heaven and earth that was already fast asleep, shook his head, and decided not to count on it.
He decided that in the future, he would let the Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth drink less alcohol, at least in Tianjue Abyss, he would not let it drink anymore.
He failed at the critical moment and drinking caused trouble!
If he hadn't seen it just now, if the big snake launched an attack, it would have been very difficult to escape.
Xiao Chen activated the 'Chaos Art', holding the Xuanyuan Sword, and slowly walked back.
His spiritual sense extended first, covering the ravine where the big snake had just appeared.
There is no danger at all.
Xiao Chen frowned. What happened? Is he really gone?
"How about it?"
In the distance, Wang Pingbei asked.
"I'm not there yet..."
Xiao Chen was furious. This guy was even more cowardly and afraid of death than Lao Zhao!
He slowly walked to the edge, looked down, and saw no snake.
"call……"
Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief, then raised his eyebrows. What happened? Was he really gone?
His spiritual sense probed downwards, but detected no trace of the giant snake.
"No... not here anymore?"
Wang Pingbei couldn't help but ask another question.
"Well, no more."
Xiao Chen nodded and slowly walked down the ravine.
"What are you going to do?"
Wang Pingbei saw Xiao Chen's actions and asked hurriedly.
"I'll go down and take a look."
Xiao Chen fell down without even looking back.
This ravine is not very deep and we soon reach the bottom.
Xiao Chen tightly grasped the Xuanyuan Sword, fearing that the giant snake would suddenly jump out, open its bloody mouth, and swallow him in one gulp.
He felt that with that big head, it would be easy to swallow him in one bite.
"Are all the beasts in Tianjueyuan so terrifying? Meat mountains, giant monsters, giant snakes... Compared to them, the leopard I just killed is nothing."
Xiao Chen relaxed a little only after he made sure there were no snake holes around.
His eyes fell on one place. Here... there was a very wide mark, left by some heavy object crushing it.
"These are traces of a giant snake moving around..."
Xiao Chen made a judgment and then frowned again. He found that in addition to this very wide trace, there was another trace, which was not big and much shallower.
"What's going on? More than one snake? And a small one?"
"Xiao Chen, how is it?"
From above, Wang Pingbei’s voice came.
"Are you still there?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense? What was I doing when I was away? Did you get eaten by a snake?"
Xiao Chen raised his head and responded, looking around carefully.
"Oh, I'm glad you're here..."
As Wang Pingbei spoke, he also came down from upstairs.
Obviously, he felt safer with Xiao Chen.
"Two snakes, and they weren't just passing by here... These traces don't look like they were just passing by. Maybe they have been lurking here for many days."
Based on the traces, Xiao Chen made a new judgment.
"Maybe they left because we came... No, can we scare them away just by the two of us?"
"Xiao Chen, what are you talking about?"
Wang Pingbei didn't hear clearly.
"nothing."
Xiao Chen shook his head and looked into the distance following the traces.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed. Is that a big snake?
I saw a mountain peak moving slowly a few hundred meters away, getting farther and farther away...
As if noticing Xiao Chen's gaze, the mountain paused and turned its head.
The eyes of the man and the snake collided in the air.
Xiao Chen subconsciously tightened his grip on the Xuanyuan Sword, and his body also tensed slightly.
The big snake just glanced at Xiao Chen, turned its head and continued to walk away.
"call……"
Xiao Chen watched the big snake go away, then breathed a sigh of relief. His eyes fell on the side and sure enough, there was a small snake.
Although it is a small snake, it is much bigger than ordinary snakes...
"Could it be its child?"
Xiao Chen muttered to himself as this thought came to his mind.
Then he thought of the tree that he had just seen broken. Could it be that it was broken by this little snake?
Very likely.
Wang Pingbei noticed something strange about Xiao Chen, and when he followed his gaze, the two snakes had disappeared.
"What are you looking at?"
Wang Pingbei asked curiously.
"nothing."
Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze. He vaguely felt that the big snake did not attack them because of the small snake.
Are you afraid that they will hurt the little snake?
All things in the world have spirits, and this is not an ordinary snake, but a strange beast.
Some strange animals are smarter than humans.
“We were very lucky.”
Xiao Chen retracted his gaze and suddenly said something.
"Ah? Yeah, yeah, I'm lucky."
Wang Pingbei was stunned for a moment, then nodded. Isn’t it just good luck that he was able to encounter the Snake King and survive?
"let's go."
Xiao Chen was ready to leave, who knew if the big snake would come back.
As for chasing the big snake...there's nothing wrong with his brain, he wouldn't do that to get himself killed.
He had a hunch without fighting that he was no match for this giant snake.
"Tian Jue Yuan is really terrifying. With my strength here, I have to keep a low profile."
Xiao Chen muttered to himself.
"Hey, Xiao Chen, what is this?"
Suddenly, Wang Pingbei shouted.
