Serpent Ancestor

Chapter 262: Xu Hei's friends

Bamboo shoots shot up wildly, transforming into sharp spikes that burst from the ground, piercing through a group of Snake Catchers.

A thousand-year-old willow tree, its branches like sharp swords, danced wildly in the wind, slicing off heads one by one.

Strange dandelions floated through the air, exploding wherever they landed, leaving death and destruction in their wake.

At this moment, the mountains were experiencing a massive plant eruption, with all vegetation turning into ferocious, man-eating monsters, attacking the Snake Catchers Sect.

Xu Hei was stunned.

This kind of attack seemed familiar, and only she was the most adept at it!

"Xu Bai?"

Xu Hei glanced around and looked at the Fifteenth Ancestor of the Inner Demon.

"No choice, she insisted on coming out to help, so I had to bring her out," the Fifteenth Ancestor of the Inner Demon said, shrugging.

At this moment, the Fifteenth Ancestor of the Inner Demon no longer pretended, transforming into a dog-headed man, none other than Hei Huang.

As for the real Fifteenth Ancestor, he lay on the ground, charred and lifeless, having been struck down by Hei Huang. This left Xu Hei secretly amazed; after a year of seclusion, this dog seemed even stronger, with truly unfathomable methods.

Meanwhile.

Beside Xu Hei, lush green lotuses sprouted, emitting a gentle light that enveloped him, aiding in his rapid healing and accelerating the recovery of his true essence.

Xu Hei took a deep breath and regained his composure.

He looked into the distance and saw a giant cactus swiftly moving through the ranks of the Snake Catchers Sect disciples. Wherever it went, cries of misery followed, and many disciples were pierced by cactus spines. Xu Bai was hiding inside the cactus.

By now, Xu Bai had become a great demon capable of holding her own.

Xu Hei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ji Ying, attack!"

With a low command from Xu Hei, Ji Ying emerged from the dragon scales, another of Xu Hei's hidden aces.

Ji Ying finally appeared, letting out a joyful hum before shooting forward like a cannonball, shattering all six Black Snake Swords nearby, and then charging towards the stunned Yin Mingzi.

The snake-transformed Red Fang lunged at Xu Hei, eyes filled with crazed hatred.

Xu Hei showed no fear, using his last ounce of strength to open his mouth wide and bite down.

"Rip!"

Xu Hei bit down on her head and twisted fiercely, tearing off a massive snake head.

Red Fang spewed venom, drenching Xu Hei, her severed body still attacking him.

"Die!"

Xu Hei summoned the Black Dragon Pagoda, swallowing Red Fang whole, absorbing her completely, leaving only a skeleton in the blink of an eye.

"Red Fang!!"

Yin Mingzi's eyes were filled with rage and despair as he let out a heart-wrenching scream.

At this point, two of the three mid-stage Core Formation elders of the Snake Catchers Sect had fallen, leaving only Yin Mingzi!

Of the seven early-stage Core Formation elders, five were dead, and two were seriously injured.

The core strength of the Snake Catchers Sect was utterly defeated!

However, Xu Hei was also at his limit, his true essence nearly exhausted, his body covered in wounds. Without the green lotus released by Xu Bai and the ancient Spirit Medicine, Xu Hei could have fainted at any moment.

Even though his dragon scales were intact, beneath them, he was already severely injured, his blood nearly drained.

Yin Mingzi was not in much better shape. Though he still had the strength to fight, after being entangled by Ji Ying multiple times, he had lost both ears, leaving him even more terrified.

"After a thousand years of catching snakes, I finally got bitten by one. Today, I've suffered a huge setback!"

Yin Mingzi sighed inwardly, making up his mind to retreat.

But suddenly, he remembered Red Fang's dying wish.

Red Fang, even with her head severed, continued to attack Xu Hei, giving her all!

—She hoped he could kill Xu Hei and avenge her.

If Xu Hei wasn't slain, their sacrifices would be in vain!

Yin Mingzi clenched his fists, gritting his teeth, his eyes filled with determination.

"You two, if you still have the strength to fight, don't hold back, join me in attacking!"

Yin Mingzi took out a blood-red pill and swallowed it in one gulp. Instantly, a blood-red giant python's shadow appeared behind him, his eyes turning into vertical pupils, his body igniting with blood-red demon fire, his aura soaring, approaching the late Core Formation stage.

The fierce demon fire swept out, even forcing Ji Ying back a hundred feet, unable to get close.

"That's the spirit of the Ancestor Serpent!"

The two severely injured Core Formation elders' pupils contracted, their bodies trembling as if inspired.

One of them took out a giant python statue, tore off his own arm, and directly sacrificed it to the statue.

The other burned his lifespan, chanting incantations, releasing a terrifying wave as if about to cast some forbidden technique.

Xu Hei immediately felt a sense of danger approaching.

Hei Huang frowned and cursed, "These old bastards, they're going all out. Xu Hei, if it doesn't work, we should retreat!"

Retreat?

Xu Hei's true essence was exhausted, barely able to move, how far could he escape?

Xu Hei said nothing, taking out a five-thousand-year-old ancient Spirit Medicine and swallowing it whole. Using the Demon God Cauldron, he forcibly refined it, causing a surge of violent true essence to flow through his meridians, making his whole body ache.

At this point, he couldn't worry about any aftereffects.

If the other side was going all out, he had no choice but to do the same!

Blood God Armor, Blood Killing Sword, Soul-absorbing Flag, Ten Thousand Word Heavenly Book, Xu Hei summoned them all. Now, it was do or die, no turning back! He had no choice!

The only option was to kill the opponent, eliminating future threats. He didn't want to run anymore!

"Xu Hei, rest well!"

Suddenly, a powerful voice echoed from afar, resonating in his ears.

Xu Hei looked up to see a golden radiance flashing from the horizon, a giant elephant with gleaming golden light and sharp tusks.

—Man Jin!

Before even reaching him, a golden light shield enveloped Xu Hei, a metal element spell from Man Jin.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Additionally, a thunder lion stepped on lightning, riding the storm, descending from the sky in an instant, it was the Purple Lightning Lion King, Lei Meng!

There was also a mid-stage Core Formation old monkey king, an early-stage Core Formation wind eagle king, and an early-stage Core Formation old flood dragon, all arriving on the scene.

Behind them were their respective demonic beast armies!

Groups of demonic beasts approached, their steps shaking the earth, a thunderous sound like a thousand horses galloping.

"You all..." Xu Hei was struck as if by lightning, frozen in place.

These demonic beasts were the five great demon clans that once fought against the Four Sects Alliance, driven away for thousands of miles, now all present.

"Awooo!"

From afar, a loud wolf howl echoed through the mountains.

A wolf king, stepping on the verdant mountains, led a massive pack, quickly occupying a mountain peak.

Among the wolf pack, a black-and-white wolf watched Xu Hei and Hei Huang with burning eyes, filled with long-lost excitement.

This wolf was very familiar, none other than Er Gou, lost for many years.

A snake in distress, supported from all sides.

Xu Hei was no longer the lone fighter in Myriad Serpent Valley, battling the heroes, never to return home.

He had friends, these demonic beast friends, to lend him a hand!

"Xu Hei, rest well, leave the rest to us!" Man Jin said solemnly.

As he spoke, the golden shield around Xu Hei's body added eight more layers, no longer just an eggshell, but a thick golden wall, shielding him from wind and rain.

Man Jin stood before the golden shield, like a towering mountain, blocking Yin Mingzi and the others.
