Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1904: Chapter 1902: [Woman with a Human Head, Snake Body, and Spear]

The black-robed leader struck with his full strength. From his Treasure, the black curved blade, burst out a surge of black power. That black power transformed into a black giant python that shrouded this heaven and earth, leaving Ye Tianchen momentarily at a loss, and he was even sneak-attacked by the black-robed leader with a palm and fell into the belly of the black giant python!

”Brother Ye...”

”Tianchen...”

When Dongfang Meng and the others saw Ye Tianchen being swallowed into the belly of the black giant python, they were all shocked and couldn’t help but cry out. They had been watching the battle all along and knew how powerful this black-robed leader was, especially when he went all out and the Treasure in his hand burst out with a surge of powerful black force. That was truly formidable, making it seem as if this heaven and earth were all enveloped by that black power. Especially the giant python that the black power transformed into—whether in terms of attack power or attack speed—it was extremely terrifying, leaving Dongfang Meng and the others aghast!

Just now everyone had already seen that inside the belly of this black giant python, it was filled with highly poisonous miasma. This kind of toxic miasma had extremely strong corrosiveness, almost impossible to resist. At that time, Ye Tianchen had thrown out a punch, wanting to smash this black giant python, but instead triggered the poisonous gas in the python’s belly. Ye Tianchen burned his Physical Body Power, forming a golden protective barrier that shielded himself inside it, so for the moment he was not in any serious danger.

Perhaps it was because Ye Tianchen’s Physical Body Power was strong, or perhaps because the poisonous gas triggered inside the belly of this black giant python was, after all, only a small portion, so Ye Tianchen was not in serious trouble. But now, after Ye Tianchen exchanged a palm with the black-robed leader, he was suddenly grabbed by a Toxic Hand that surged out from the belly of the black giant python. Before Ye Tianchen could even react, he was seized and dragged into the belly of this black giant python. One couldn’t help but worry—can Ye Tianchen still survive?

It was obvious the black-robed leader hadn’t been boasting, much less joking. This black giant python was itself a mass of black power manifested into form. Within this black power was the Poisonous Gas he had refined into it. Once, a powerhouse at the Late Stage Martial Saint Cultivation Realm was shrouded by this Poisonous Gas and was turned into pus and blood. He did not believe Ye Tianchen could still defy the heavens and come out alive!

”Tianchen...” Dongfang Meng struggled to stand up, but Tianshuang’er yanked her back!

”What are you trying to do?” Tianshuang’er asked with a frown.

”We can’t let this go on. Tianchen will die in there. I’m going to save him!” Dongfang Meng said without the slightest hesitation.

”How are you going to save him in your condition? Rushing up there is just throwing your life away. Besides, is Ye Tianchen dead yet? Watch first, then talk!” Tianshuang’er said.

At this moment, hanging in the sky above Desolate Stone Village was a black giant python, coiled as if it covered this entire stretch of heaven and earth. The black giant python did not move at all, simply coiling there silently, as if digesting its food!

”Don’t panic, and don’t shout. I will have this black giant python swallow you one by one into its belly and turn you all into pus and blood. That way, when we use you to sacrifice and refine the killing artifact slumbering in our Nine Netherworld Underworld, the effect should be even better!” The black-robed leader’s face twisted ferociously as he stared viciously at the men, women, young, and old of Desolate Stone Village.

At this moment!

Ye Tianchen was dragged into the belly of this giant python formed from black power. He truly had not expected that after exchanging a palm with the black-robed leader, a hand would suddenly shoot out from the belly of this black giant python, grab his shoulder in an instant, and drag him down into the stomach of this black giant python!

Originally, Ye Tianchen thought that even if there was virulent poison in the belly of this black giant python, with his Physical Body Power guarding him, it shouldn’t be a problem. That Poisonous Gas shouldn’t be able to penetrate his body. Who would have thought that when Ye Tianchen was yanked and dragged into the python’s belly by this hand, he immediately sensed something was wrong and hurriedly surged an even more powerful tide of Physical Body Power to protect his body!

”Zzzzzz...”

But even though Ye Tianchen rapidly pushed his Physical Body Power to a stronger level to shield his body, he very quickly heard the sound of that Physical Body Power burning. He couldn’t help but furrow his brows as he looked at the black mist spreading all around. That mist was filled with virulent poison, constantly corroding his Physical Body Power, trying to turn him, Ye Tianchen, into pus and blood!

”Damn it, this poisonous miasma really is nasty. Looks like I can’t stay here long, otherwise even my Physical Body Power might not be able to hold!” Ye Tianchen cursed inwardly.

Ye Tianchen hadn’t expected the Poisonous Gas inside the black giant python’s belly to be this intense. He had practically unleashed all of his Physical Body Power to protect his entire body, yet the Poisonous Gas still kept corroding his flesh, emitting sizzling sounds as if desperately trying to bore its way in and devour Ye Tianchen!

Bang!

A blast of fist force slammed out. Ye Tianchen threw a direct punch at the surrounding ”walls.” But when his fist force smashed out and struck them, it actually vanished completely, which made Ye Tianchen feel it was extremely bizarre!

Whoosh!

All of a sudden, a streak of cold light shot over, directly striking toward Ye Tianchen’s head. Ye Tianchen was startled and quickly dodged!

Bang!

That streak of cold light nailed into the wall, and a viciously toxic liquid actually started dripping down from it, corroding everything around. Ye Tianchen frowned in alarm; if he’d taken an arrow like that, he probably wouldn’t be walking away alive!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...

The next instant, he had no idea how many more Cold Light Poison Arrows were shooting toward him. Ye Tianchen kept dodging, rolling nonstop to evade them, but the arrows were coming thicker and faster, to the point where there was simply no way to dodge anymore. From the initial evasions, Ye Tianchen shifted to blasting them apart with his fist force the moment they flew in!

”Overlord Fist!”

A massive wave of Cold Light Poison Arrows came sweeping in. Ye Tianchen let out a low shout, and a powerful fist force erupted, directly enveloping the entire abdominal space of the black giant python, sweeping across and turning all those arrows into nothingness.

Bang!

A long spear thrust in to kill, stabbing straight toward Ye Tianchen. Ye Tianchen frowned slightly, clenched his right fist tight, and a surge of terrifying Physical Body Power burst out from his right fist, blasting forward. In an instant it turned into a golden fist beam that slammed into that long spear!

Rumble!

A dull boom sounded. Ye Tianchen was forced back a step, and just then he saw a figure walking toward him. He hadn’t expected someone to be guarding the inside of this black giant python’s belly.

”Hmph, since you dare intrude here, you’re dead!” A woman with a human head and snake body, her upper body bare, held a long spear in hand as she looked coldly at Ye Tianchen, letting out a snort full of disdain.

”Didn’t think there’d be a beauty waiting for me in this big snake’s stomach. I, Ye Tianchen, really am blessed with good fortune.” Ye Tianchen teased lightly.

”Rest easy, I am a Toxic Soul, the soul within this poison. My Life Soul was Refined into this poison so that I could unleash my master’s power. Show me disrespect, and I’ll annihilate you body and soul!” The human-headed, snake-bodied woman spoke with domineering arrogance.

Ye Tianchen frowned. Hearing this woman’s words, he couldn’t help but think of the ruthless methods of the Nine Netherworld Underworld. The Nine Netherworld Underworld’s inheritance was terrifying, enough to make many people pale at its mention, because the Nine Netherworld Underworld specialized in manipulating people’s bodies and capturing their Life Souls. To achieve their goals, the Nine Netherworld Underworld would stop at nothing!

Very clearly, this human-headed, snake-bodied woman was originally a Demon Beast, but something must have gone wrong during her evolutionary Cultivation process. Precisely because of that, a powerhouse of the Nine Netherworld Underworld had imprisoned her Life Soul, and had definitely wiped out all memories from her previous life. That was how this human-headed, snake-bodied woman had become this so-called Toxic Soul, set here as a guardian!

Swish!

The human-headed, snake-bodied woman took advantage of Ye Tianchen’s brief daze and charged in, the long spear in her hand erupting with a surge of killing intent as she thrust straight at Ye Tianchen’s head, intent on obliterating him body and soul!

”Sword, to me!” Ye Tianchen waved his right hand, and the Taie Sword appeared in his grip. Now that he was fully inside the black giant python’s belly, there was no need to keep the Taie Sword lodged in the python’s mouth anymore!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The battle began. What surprised Ye Tianchen was that this human-headed, snake-bodied woman’s combat power was truly formidable. It seemed that in life she must have been a powerful expert. At this moment, Ye Tianchen recalled the rumors about the Demon Clan: once their Cultivation reached a certain level, Demon Beasts could undergo Transformation into human form. But there were also Demon Beasts that, for their entire lives, only displayed their beast forms and would never Transform into human form. Though uglier in appearance, they could preserve their primal power. Then there was another type—like this human-headed, snake-bodied woman—half human, half Demon Beast. It was said that this allowed them to gain some kind of mysterious power, but accomplishing this was extremely difficult. In other words, any Demon Beast able to become such a half-human, half-demon existence was definitely a being of extraordinary talent!

Right now, this human-headed, snake-bodied woman fighting Ye Tianchen was very likely such a monstrously gifted existence. Their weapons clashed again and again, the two of them locked in an evenly matched struggle, neither gaining the upper hand for the moment.

Clang!

Thud!

Ye Tianchen and the human-headed, snake-bodied woman separated, both frowning at each other, both feeling the other’s power. Neither had expected the other’s strength to be this great. Ten exchanges had already passed, and it was still a deadlock! (To be continued.
