C828 Snake
"Weird, how could a person's footprint be like this? A person's footprint can only be light in the middle and heavy in the front and back. However, this footprint runs counter to it, could it …" Isn't this a human footprint? " Sikong Banyu frowned, this didn't make sense! This group of people had found this place with Wu Xiangqian's help. In other words, Wu Xiangqian had met with these people before this. If these people were out of the ordinary, Wu Xiangqian would have noticed them a long time ago.2
According to Wu Xiangqian, there were seven people in this group. Most of them sounded like they were in their thirties, but there was only one old man who was very skinny. Although he couldn't completely describe the appearance of these seven people, they were definitely real, but now …
"Maybe I'm overthinking it! "If you put on a prosthetic shoe and put it on, you can make footprints like this too." Sikong Banyu took a deep breath and stood up. He walked through the side door. What entered his eyes was a long passageway that extended into the depths of the tomb.
He did not care much about these tombs' secret tunnels. Not to mention that someone had already broken through the traps before him, even if these traps existed, to an ordinary person, it might be a sign of death. However, to Sikong Banyu, who was almost at the Bone Refining stage, it was not worth mentioning.
Sikong Banyu had just walked forward about 200 meters when he suddenly stopped because the tunnel in front of him had been cut off. The cut off thing was a deep pit that made faint rustling sounds.
He walked to the edge of the pit and looked down. It was pitch black down there, so he couldn't see the bottom.
"Quicksand Trap?" This kind of trap often appeared in ancient tombs. It was usually set at the top of tombs, and once the intruder stepped on the tombs, the sand at the top of the tombs would open up. A large amount of sand would rush into the tombs and bury the entire catacombs, causing the intruder to suffocate to death.
"But this Quicksand Trap in front of me is extremely strange. There are actually some places that can be cleared out." "Since we've set up a trap, it means that we don't want anyone to come in. We won't be able to get out even if we come in. We'll still be digging such a deep hole in the quicksand. Isn't this intentionally giving them a way out?"
Sikong Banyu frowned. This didn't make sense at all, unless the people inside the tomb wanted to leave as well. Only then would they be able to avoid the quicksand blocking the tunnel. However, this was not the Royal Tomb, and the creator of the mausoleum would not need to be buried along with him. This was only the grave of a toast.
"This ancient tomb is truly strange." Sikong Banyu, who didn't understand, didn't think too much about it. The width of the pit wasn't big; it was only about one zhang. To him, this small distance was nothing. Sikong Banyu leaped, using the wall beside the grave road, he shot out twice towards the other side of the hole.
All of a sudden, a dangerous aura appeared within Sikong Banyu's perception. He raised his hand and struck out with a palm, and immediately, he felt that he had touched something cold. The thing that was attacking him also flew out and smashed into the wall of the tomb.
Sikong Banyu smoothly landed on the floor of the tunnel. He immediately looked up at the thing that attacked him and saw a green snake the size of two fingers fall to the ground after being beaten up. Its tail was still unconsciously shaking, but its head was already smashed.
"Snake?" It was indeed a green snake, the presence of snakes in the ancient tomb was not strange at all. After all, in such a dark place, there had been no signs of humans for many years, and this snake was a beloved land of rats, mice, and ants. However, Sikong Banyu was surprised by this snake, because it was a green bamboo snake, and its poison was very strong, its whole body was green, and it could be said that there was a blood seal on its throat.
"Hmm? What was that sound? "Not good …" At first, he thought it was the sound of flowing sand, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. However, suddenly, the sound became sharp, and a dangerous aura suddenly appeared on his body. It made Sikong Banyu turn pale with fright.
In that instant, countless snakes crawled out from the edge of the crater. There were all sorts of them, as if the bottom of the crater was a snake-like nest.
"Where did all these snakes come from? This... Hiss hiss … Sikong Banyu thought for a moment and went deeper into the tomb. However, he suddenly realized that the two sides of the tomb were covered in all kinds of snakes. They looked so creepy that they blocked his way in and out of the tomb.
"Could it be that this isn't a Quicksand Trap? Are these snakes the real traps?" Phew... "Looks like the grave of the toast is quite interesting." Sikong Banyu took a deep breath and did not panic at all. He raised both of his hands and quickly formed a few seals. A dim light flashed between his hands and it quickly covered his entire body before slowly disappearing.
At the same time, the countless snakes had already reached Sikong Banyu's feet. However, a strange scene occurred. The snakes seemed to be unable to see Sikong Banyu at all, nor did they sense Sikong Banyu's aura. They crawled past Sikong Banyu and quickly gathered together.
"Luckily, it is only an ordinary snake. If it was a Snake Demon with a certain cultivation level, this Demonic Finger would not be of much use." The Quasi-Demon Art was something related to Vermillion Bird Continent. It could temporarily simulate one's own aura to be the same as a demon beast and was a cultivation technique that must be cultivated by many experienced cultivators. However, that technique was completely useless against Monstrous Beasts with powerful cultivations. It would be seen through immediately, but against normal animals, it was a waste of resources.
If it wasn't for Sikong Banyu's limited cultivation base, which was only at Bone Refining, and not before the Genuine Essence, he couldn't use any offensive techniques. Otherwise, with Sikong Banyu's current body strength, ordinary snake venom was completely useless, and even if he stood there and let it bite him, he probably wouldn't feel any pain.
