C117 snakehead
When Yang Junshan rushed to the cave entrance, he saw the Heaven Shaking Sect's only remaining Zhang Yueming and Xu Jing, as well as the Tan Xi Sect's Fang Xuesheng, Yan Qinxi, and Zheng Senior Brother and two other cultivators from the same sect gathered near the cave entrance. Outside the cave entrance, a Tan Xi Sect cultivator lay prone on the ground, his body covered with mud snakes, and his entire body was purplish-black in color.
Seeing Yang Junshan walk out of the cave, the people from the Tan Xi faction were all secretly on guard, especially when Yan Qingxi looked at Yang Junshan with a trace of inexplicable meaning. Zhang Yueming and Xu Jing were overjoyed when they saw Yang Junshan.
Yang Junshan walked over and asked, "What is going on here?"
Zhang Yue Ming shook her head. "I don't know why, but there are a large number of mud snakes gathered outside the cave, surrounding the entire slope. Luckily, the cave entrance is narrow, and the mud snakes that come in are limited, so we can still resist them.
Yang Junshan glanced at the corpse and said, "He was bitten by a mud snake, and the poison attacked his heart. At that time, even if he was saved, he wouldn't have been able to live!"
At this moment, Fang Xuesheng from the Tan Xi Sect spoke up, "Three sirs, there's something weird with the mud snakes. Although we can still block them from the cave, the mud snakes seem to be endless. How about we join forces again?"
Zhang Yue Ming looked at Yang Junshan, and seeing him nod slightly, she said, "Alright, we can only get through this together now. There are a total of nine people on both sides, and the entrance can only accommodate three people at the same time. We will split into three groups and take turns."
Everyone nodded in agreement, but Yang Junshan suddenly asked, "Have you guys seen the Snake King among the snakes?"
The few of them were stunned. Fang Xuesheng clapped her hands and said with regret, "That's right. As long as we kill the Snake King, the snake horde will naturally crumble. Why didn't I think of that!?"
Senior brother Zheng snorted and said, "Even if there is a Snake King, how do we kill it? The surroundings are filled with dense mud snakes. I'm afraid that before we can even rush over, we would have already been submerged by them. "
"The snakes are coming up again!"
No one had time to argue with him. Yang Junshan took the lead and said, "I will go and defend for a while!"
As she finished speaking, she took out the Hundred Refinement Hades from her waist and walked towards the entrance of the cave. Yan Qingxi looked behind at Yang Junshan and suddenly giggled. With a tap of her feet, she caught up to Yang Junshan.
"How about I go with you?"
Yang Junshan felt a fragrant wind blowing behind him. Beside him, there was a young girl who was looking at him with eyes like autumn water. Her eyes were filled with curiosity.
"Junior Sister, you …"
Before Yang Junshan could reply, Fang Xuesheng's expression changed as she tried to stop him. After all, the impression that Yang Junshan had left on the crowd was too strong. He could kill four people in an instant, but even he could not do it himself.
In fact, Fang Xuesheng did not know that Yan Qingxi had been easily subdued by Yang Junshan before. Otherwise, she would have made a move to stop her.
However, Fang Xuesheng still shot a look at a disciple from the Tan Xi Sect next to him. Although this disciple was unwilling, she still walked towards the cave entrance and said, "I'll go too!"
She just stared at Yang Junshan. Yang Junshan shrugged and said, "It's up to you. However, fighting with a group of snakes is not a joke. Don't expect me to save you then!"
Upon seeing someone walk out of the cave, the group of snakes immediately stood up, their necks stretched out, their tongues flicking continuously, making hissing sounds. Even though Yan Qingxi had a cultivation base, she was still a young girl in her teens, and was naturally afraid of snakes.
The saber light arced in the air, and while Yan Qingxi was cheering for him, Yang Junshan had already taken big steps forward. The saber light arced in the air, and while Yan Qingxi was cheering for herself, Yang Junshan had already stepped forward.
"Hong!" A ball of fire exploded within the group of snakes. The raging flames ripped open the flesh of the dozens of mud snakes, and the fragrance of meat was roiling in the air.
A disciple of the Tan Xi Sect nodded proudly at Yang Junshan. The provocative look on her face was clear to see.
At this moment, Yan Qingxi, who was on the other side, finally overcame her mental difficulties. The sword in her palm flashed brightly as she slashed twenty to thirty mud snakes in a row. Their battle record instantly surpassed Yang Junshan's.
With the three of them working together, with Yang Junshan in the center, the disciple from the Tan Xi Sect and Yan Qingxi on the left and right respectively, they slaughtered all the snakes rushing towards them.
Yang Junshan held his saber horizontally in his hand, which made it difficult for him to throw water. His entire body was protected by a cold blade-light, and all the mud snakes that came rushing up were chopped into pieces.
However, Yang Junshan's killing efficiency was far below that of Yan Qingxi on both sides. Once the two of them used their spells, at least twenty or thirty mud snakes would surge forward and be killed.
Any mud snake that was swept by the golden light would die if it touched the sword light. When a large amount of sword light was released, there would be an additional corpse of a snake on the ground, and soon, a large area without a snake had been opened up. Its killing power could be said to be the strongest amongst the three of them.
Even when the two of them were using their spells, each of them had a weapon in their hands. Even if there were fish that slipped through the net due to the spells, they would be quickly killed by the two.
"Fellow Daoist, your speed is really too slow!"2
Yan Qingxi flaunted at Yang Junshan's side as she said this.
In fact, Yang Junshan was observing the surroundings while killing the snake, but the situation didn't seem good. There were mud snakes everywhere, and Yang Junshan wanted to break out of the encirclement after he went through the secret passage under the giant rock, but it seemed that this method wouldn't work.
Hearing Yan Qingxi's provocative words, Yang Junshan kept slashing his sword horizontally, accurately slicing seven or eight mud snakes into two. He asked indifferently: "Did you see the mud snakes in the swamp around the gentle slope? Do you think we can kill them all with our power? "
Yan Qingxi said complacently, "It's not like we will say anything if we slow down the slaughter. Anyway, the group of snakes did not enter the cave."
Yang Junshan nodded and said, "You're right, we can't kill all the snakes anyway. As long as we don't let them into the cave, what's the use of killing so many snakes?"
Yan Qingxi was so infuriated by Yang Junshan's words that she seemed to be trying to quibble with him. She said sarcastically, "You know your own limits, where is the awe-inspiring aura in the cave?"
Yang Junshan sighed and said, "Well then, let me ask you two, how much spiritual energy do you two still have left in your bodies? If the Snake King appeared suddenly, would you two still have the strength to resist?"
The two of them looked at each other. Yan Qingxi seemed to have understood something and her expression immediately changed.
Yang Junshan said, "It's good that you understand. This group of snakes has gathered all the mud snakes in the entire Nanxuan Swamp, who knows how many there are? We need to buy at least half the time for a cultivator who has exhausted all his spiritual energy to recover his spiritual energy. This way, the three groups of people will take turns to block the snake swarm, and after being switched out, we will have enough time to fully recover our spiritual energy.
The two of them felt extremely awkward. Previously, they had been using all sorts of spells without restraint, and even though the battle had been splendid, the spiritual energy within their bodies had been depleted. If they were to use their cultivation bases to recover, not to mention half of it, even a third of it would be enough.
Yang Junshan had already expected this situation. He took the initiative and said, "You two only need to kill a few fish that escaped the net to get back to the cave. Leave the rest to me!"
Yang Junshan, who was originally just guarding the entrance of the cave, suddenly started to circle around the cave entrance. Yang Junshan, who was originally only guarding the cave entrance of the cave, suddenly started to circle around the cave entrance, and started to spin around the cave entrance.
"What a powerful blade technique!" The disciple couldn't help but exclaim.
Yan Qingxi pursed her lips and said, "What's the use of that? It's just a mortal item. Can you even use a blade technique to defend yourself against a spell?"
The disciple continued, "Senior disciple sister, I'm not sure if you've noticed that this person hasn't used any spiritual power since the beginning, but instead used his physical body and blade techniques to block the attacks of the snakes."
"He did not use his spirit energy? This is impossible, it's been almost two hours already. How could he withstand such an intense battle with his physical body? "
From the start, he had been battling with pure physical strength. From the start, his blade light had never shone, as if he had not been able to channel his spiritual energy into his weapon. In other words, his internal spiritual energy has always been maintained at the peak.
Yan Qingxi said in disbelief, "These mud snakes are not ordinary snakes, even if their bodies are not as tough as metal, it would still take quite a bit of effort to cut them off. Just what realm did his body reach?"
Inside the cave, Fang Xuesheng saw that the three of them had already been out for more than two hours and could not help but laugh, "It seems like these three have already stepped up. If we follow them up too far, our faces won't look too good."
