Invincible Snake Emperor

Due to the confines of the cave, Tu Xiao’an only manifested a ten-meter-long body. But even so, he was terrifying enough to destroy anything.

The feral Cat Spirit was utterly mad, a demonic light in its eyes having consumed all its reason. Upon seeing the ten-meter Giant Snake, it wasn’t surprised in the least. Instead, it pounced menacingly.

With a pounce that could scatter the clouds, it leaped and bounded like a rabid wolf or a savage tiger, hurtling down to strike Tu Xiao’an.

A flicker of Tu Xiao’an’s Snake Gaze, and the temperature in the cave dropped. A purple-gold snake tail abruptly rose and casually slapped the Cat Spirit as it descended from above.

BOOM...

The Cat Spirit was smashed directly into the ground.

But just a second later, the Cat Spirit leaped back to its feet, its fur standing on end, each strand sharp as a needle. It dodged and weaved, its nimble form flashing left and right, trying to land a surprise attack and sink its pale fangs into the Giant Snake’s vital spot.

Tu Xiao’an’s snake pupils contracted. The purple-gold tail struck again. It seemed to slap at empty air, but in the blink of an eye, it was the Cat Spirit that was sent flying.

This time, Tu Xiao’an didn’t wait for the Cat Spirit to get up. His tail swept out, lashing it like a furious storm.

He whipped the Cat Spirit again and again, smashing it into the ground, only to pull it back out with his tail and thrash it violently once more.

It had to be said that after going berserk, the Cat Spirit seemed to feel no pain. Its Life Force was also abnormally vigorous. All that could be heard in the cave were its sky-shattering wails.

But its Vengeful Spirit grew even more terrifying.

The peculiar Snake Race aura grew stronger and stronger. The final lash slammed the Cat Spirit against the stone wall.

It actually managed to land steadily. The moment its feet touched the ground, its body doubled in size again. Its red eyes were bewitching, and a bloody light filled the air.

”RAWR...”

The Cat Spirit let out a frantic roar. It was as mournful as a wandering soul, yet as piercing as a Ghost. The sound made Tu Xiao’an’s heart tremble.

’This is bad. Its aura is getting stronger and stronger.’

For a moment, Tu Xiao’an even thought the Cat Spirit was about to break through to become a Rank Three Creature.

Just then, a beam of red light shot out from the Cat Spirit’s left eye in a flash.

Before he could even blink, Tu Xiao’an looked down in disbelief. His impenetrable, incredibly tough Snake Scale had been pierced, leaving a bloody wound.

’Its gaze turned tangible?’

Tu Xiao’an was utterly astonished. This was a terrifying method of attack, giving its target no time to react.

’This is a textbook case of killing with a look.’

After all, the defense of Tu Xiao’an’s snake body was astonishing. He was confident enough to take a direct hit from a missile without even flinching.

But now, a mere look had wounded his snake body.

’Well now, this Snake King Stone really is quite a treasure.’

Without a doubt, the Cat Spirit was getting stronger because the Snake King Stone inside it was causing trouble...

Tu Xiao’an didn’t dare to be careless any longer. He had to give it his all.

This Cat Spirit was already Level 29. While its combat power hadn’t been exceptionally high before, that was no longer the case.

It was forcing Tu Xiao’an to get serious.

Suddenly, the Cat Spirit moved like a thunderbolt, charging at him with overwhelming might and a speed Tu Xiao’an had never before seen.

A moment later, he felt a sharp, searing pain. The Cat Spirit’s sharp, pale fangs had bitten into his Snake Skin, instantly shattering the defense of his scales.

’Damn it, that hurts like hell!’

Rage flared up inside Tu Xiao’an. A Flame Illusion manifested instantly, scorching hot. A sizzling sound filled the air as white smoke began to roil.

The Cat Spirit tried to bite the ten-meter Giant Snake in two, but incredibly, the giant’s body erupted in Blazing Fire.

It was forced to release its fangs and retreat, simply unable to withstand such temperatures.

”Thunderous Fury, triple power...”

In an instant, two-thirds of Tu Xiao’an’s Thunder Power was gone. A roiling Thunder Sea appeared before him, instantly enveloping the beast-like Cat Spirit.

Within the Thunder Sea, continuous Thunder Shocks roiled, illuminating the cave as if it were day.

Tu Xiao’an’s ten-meter body shrank rapidly, down to just one centimeter. There were several wounds on his snake body, still bleeding profusely.

’To think I could still be injured like this at my level.’

With a thought, Tu Xiao’an summoned five Snakeberries and swallowed them in one gulp.

The Snakeberry contained a potent Energy that could cause one’s body to swell in size, but it could also rapidly heal one’s injuries.

Sure enough, as soon as he ate the Snakeberries, the wounds on his snake body clotted and stopped bleeding. Then, they healed at a rate visible to the naked eye.

At that moment, the Thunder Sea vanished. The beast-like Cat Spirit was charred black, but it remained standing.

”Haitang, are you still not back to your senses?”

Tu Xiao’an was afraid of killing it, which was why he was reluctant to use his overpowering Flame Power to attack.

He feared the Flame Power would be too intense and instantly cremate the Cat Spirit.

The thoroughly charred Cat Spirit opened its eyes. The bewitching red light was gone. Tu Xiao’an’s heart leaped with joy. ’It’s come to its senses!’

But before he could celebrate, its eyes suddenly turned crimson, and the peculiar Snake Race aura swept out once more.

’How is that possible?’

’My triple-powered Thunder Power is immense. It could strike down several thousand humans at once.’

’How does the Cat Spirit still have any fight left in it?’

Tu Xiao’an frowned. ’It seems I have no choice but to use my Flame Power.’

’If it gets burned to death, it’ll have brought it on itself. No one can blame me then.’

But suddenly, the Cat Spirit’s body began to glow brightly. Tu Xiao’an’s snake pupils contracted as he bizarrely saw a radiant stone inside its body.

’Is that the Snake King Stone?’

At that moment, the peculiar Snake Race aura exerted an incredible pull on Tu Xiao’an.

It was like a magnetic pull, making Tu Xiao’an want to draw near. The feeling was like the urge to rush into a mother’s embrace.

’Is the Snake King Stone summoning me?’

Tu Xiao’an became certain. He snorted coldly. ’I am the true Snake King. If there’s any summoning to be done, it’ll be me summoning you.’

In that instant, an incredibly terrifying Snake King aura erupted from Tu Xiao’an—an aura of Ruling the World, of looking down upon all creation.

The temperature in the entire cave plummeted. At the same time, the two incredibly powerful Snake Race auras slammed into each other.

The air trembled violently. Space fluctuated and distorted wantonly as wave after wave of explosions rang out.

’Submit!’

Tu Xiao’an’s Snake King aura was filled with overwhelming pressure. He intended to crush the peculiar Snake Race aura radiating from the Snake King Stone. Once he suppressed it, the question of who was summoning whom would be settled.

The two supreme Snake Race auras were now in a contest of strength, a direct comparison to see which was more powerful.

As for the Cat Spirit, it seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, having lost all control over its own body.

This kind of Snake King Stone was evil and tyrannical. It was not necessarily a good thing for another creature to swallow it—not unless they could completely control and master its power.
