Celestial being

Yuan Ming controlled the soul crow to fly in a little bit more, and took a closer look, and felt a chill in his heart.

The snake king in front of me was indeed not the same one before. It was a lot bigger, with a hook-shaped horn growing out of its forehead, and four protrusions emerging from its abdomen. It looked as if it was about to shed its snake body and turn into a dragon.

The snake king that had fought with Bai Ye before was now lying dying in the miasma behind him.

Nearly half of the scales on this snake king's body were damaged, and blood flowed profusely. The head injury was particularly serious. The smaller half of the python's head was shattered, but it was not dead. The snake's mouth opened and closed slightly, and it seemed that it was adjusting its breath to heal its injuries.

"There are actually two snake kings here? The information about Baiye's alliance was wrong, otherwise it wouldn't be so miserable." Yuan Ming sighed secretly.

The One-Horned Snake King is far more powerful than the previous one. It is twice as powerful and the green venom it sprays is more toxic. Rocks can easily corrode a large pit many feet deep. The snake venom that lands on the ground will evaporate quickly, forming a green venom. Poisonous fog.

The most terrifying thing was the single horn on his forehead, which could shoot out a golden ray with extremely strong penetrating power. Bai Ye and Huan Shi didn't dare to let it hit it.

But after all, the two of them were foundation-building monks. Although they had been poisoned by snake venom, they still cooperated tacitly. They were also quite proficient in using various spells and magic weapons, so they were not defeated for a while.

Bai Ye controlled a golden flying sword, and Huan Shi activated the bronze shield. The sword energy was vertical and horizontal, and the shield shadow was flying. With proper attack and defense, he blocked the waves of attacks from the One-Horned Snake King.

It's just that this place is filled with poisonous mist. Although the two of them carry poison-proof treasures, they still can't completely resist it. The green aura on their faces gradually becomes heavier and their movements become slower and slower.

The one-horned snake king's narrow snake eyes showed bloodthirsty excitement, and his attacks became more and more fierce.

Yuan Ming ignored the battle in the cave and stared at the seriously injured Snake King. He secretly controlled the black toad lurking underground and moved towards the fallen Snake King.

There were two Foundation Establishment stage beings in the cave, as well as two Level 2 ferocious beasts. In order to avoid being discovered, the Black Toad sneaked from the ground four to five feet deep, and it took him a while to reach under the Snake King.

A long purple-black vine emerged silently from the ground, pierced the wound on the head of the Golden Flower Snake King like lightning, and sank deeply into it.

This snake king was breathing and breathing when he was suddenly attacked. The one that was attacked was his head, and he couldn't help but scream in agony.

"It's now!"

A black shadow shot out from the ground near the mouth of the Golden Flower Snake King, and entered the open mouth with a "swish" sound. The long purple and black vine also retracted like lightning, and also sank into the snake's mouth.

A series of changes happened as fast as lightning, and the Golden Flower Snake King didn't react until now, and was about to try to find out what the black shadow that penetrated his body was.

At this moment, he felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen, as if a sharp knife was piercing his internal organs.

The snake king roared in pain, and the thick snake tail whipped around wildly. The rocky ground was directly ripped open, and smoke and dust flew everywhere.

Bai Ye, Huan Shi, and the One-Horned Snake King all noticed the movement next to them. Under hesitation, the battle slowed down.

"What was that black shadow just now? Is there someone else nearby?" Bai Ye and Huan Shi retreated a distance, surprised and happy.

The second, more powerful snake king suddenly appeared. They no longer had any illusions about completing their set goals and just wanted to escape with their lives. However, the one-horned snake king seemed to be furious because the two of them had seriously injured their companions, and he was clinging to the two of them. Give them the slightest chance to escape.

Although the two of them could still manage to survive before, they were already in despair. Now that things have changed, there may be hope of escape.

The one-horned snake king turned to look at his companions, but did not pass by. He roared and continued to pounce on Bai Ye and Huanshi, three minutes faster than before.

"Get away!" Bai Ye yelled and dodged to one side, while Huanshi also hurriedly swooped to the other side.

Bai Ye's cultivation was profound and he could barely resist the snake poison in his body, but Huan Shi gradually couldn't suppress it. The poison suddenly surged up and his steps staggered.

The One-Horned Snake King's intelligence was already enlightened, and he was not inferior to ordinary monks. Seeing this scene, he immediately abandoned the white night and pounced on Huanshi. The thick snake tail struck out with extraordinary flexibility, and the golden shadow flashed in front of him.

Huanshi had no time to dodge, so he could only hold up his bronze shield in front of him.

There was a loud "bang" sound, and the snake's tail hit the shield hard.

An overwhelming force hit, and the originally smooth shield surface dented and flew to the side.

The illusion behind him was also knocked upside down by a strong force. He hit the ground like a sandbag and passed out.

"Second brother!" Bai Ye was shocked and hurriedly fought back with all his strength.

His golden flying sword shot electricity straight towards the head of the One-Horned Snake King. The sword energy was so bright that the person it hit could hardly open their eyes.

The One-Horned Snake King opened his mouth and spat out, and a white ball the size of a fist shot out, surrounded by astonishing fluctuations of demon power, and collided with the golden flying sword.

There was a loud "boom", and fierce demon power exploded, setting off a strong wind in the cave, drowning the figures of the One-Horned Snake King and Bai Ye.

The soul crow in the distance couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, and could only hear the "bang bang" collision.

After a few breaths, a white figure shot out, hit the nearby mountain wall heavily, and was embedded inside. It was Bai Ye.

At this moment, half of his body was bruised, his right arm was bent at a weird angle, and the green snake venom on his skin became much thicker. He was motionless and fell into a coma.

The one-horned snake king flew out of the dust, with a huge wound on his neck. Half of the snake's body was stained red with blood, but its movements were still vigorous, and it came to the side of the injured snake king in a flash.

At this time, it did not care about the life or death of Bai Ye and the other two, but wanted to save its companions.

But the black toad was hiding inside the injured snake king. Although the one-horned snake king was powerful, he had no choice but to worry about it.

…

Yuan Ming saw this scene through the nearby soul crow and sighed secretly.

Bai Ye and Huan Shi were still easily defeated when they joined forces. The strength of this one-horned snake king was really strong, and he might have reached the second level. Although his actions of controlling the black toad temporarily saved the two of them from being poisoned, it was expected that the two of them would be killed today. It's hard to leave this place.

Yuan Ming didn't have any bad feelings toward Bai Ye and Huan Shi. If he could, he could save the two of them. Unfortunately, he didn't even have the strength to build a foundation, so he could only choose to stand by and watch.

He concentrated on activating the black toad to devour the demonic power of the snake king that seriously injured him.

The aura of the black toad has skyrocketed, reaching the peak of level one, and is still rising.

The severely injured Snake King's thick body has shrunk by nearly half, and his struggle has become smaller and smaller. His body continues to become shriveled, and his breath is getting weaker and weaker.

Black Toad is just the opposite, and its strength continues to grow by leaps and bounds, already far exceeding the level of a first-level ferocious beast.

"It's still a little short, just a little short of reaching the level of a second-level ferocious beast!" Yuan Ming thought to himself.

However, most of the snake king's demon power was absorbed by the purple and black demon vine, and the improvement of the black toad's strength has slowed down.

At this moment, the purple-black rattan touched a white bead the size of an egg, which was the same as the bead the One-Horned Snake King had just sprayed out.

"Could this be the snake bead turned into the snake gallbladder that Huan Shi mentioned earlier!" Yuan Ming secretly rejoiced and immediately controlled the wisteria and picked off the bead.

The snake bead left the body, and the body of the snake king, who was already on the verge of death, trembled, and the last trace of life finally dissipated.

The eyes of the One-Horned Snake King shot out with tangible anger, the golden light from the horn on his forehead surged, and a golden ray as thick as an arm blasted out, heading straight for the Black Toad.

The black toad didn't panic, activated the earth's swimming talisman, flashed through the thin snake skin, and escaped into the ground.

As soon as its figure disappeared, the golden ray came fiercely, easily cutting the shriveled snake body into two pieces, and even opened a huge crack several feet long on the ground, but it did not touch half of the black toad's toes.

"Roar..." The one-horned snake king looked up to the sky and roared angrily. The snake's tail slapped the ground angrily. For a moment, gravel flew and countless smoke and dust were thrown up.

Yuan Ming controlled the black toad to escape seven or eight feet underground, then stopped, opened his mouth and swallowed the white snake bead.

The snake bead contains most of the demonic power of the Golden Flower Snake King, but unfortunately it is locked inside the bead body. If ordinary monks get it and want to use it, they will have to go through a lot of troubles.

However, after the black toad fused with the demon vine and awakened its devouring ability, it was easy to refine the bead.

The purple and black demonic vines wrapped around the white snake bead, and a huge amount of demonic power merged into the black toad's body. Its aura continued to advance rapidly, and after a few breaths, it suddenly broke through the bottleneck and reached a new level.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured in from all directions, and the black toad's internal organs, muscles, and skin underwent earth-shaking changes and continued to strengthen. The purple-black demonic vines residing in its body also squirmed and became tough quickly.

The black toad's body became much larger as if it were inflated, and all the poison sacs on its back disappeared, replaced by more than a dozen purple patterns, which looked much more pleasing to the eye than before.

Those poison sacs did not disappear, all the poison flowed to somewhere in the black toad's body, and the skyrocketing demonic power also rushed there, condensing into a purple-black ball.

The aura on Black Toad quickly stabilized, and a huge pressure erupted, no less powerful than the fallen Snake King.

"Have you advanced to the second level spiritual beast?" A hint of joy flashed in Yuan Ming's eyes.

The second-level ferocious beast is comparable to a monk in the foundation-building stage, and he finally has a capable helper.

"Speaking of which, if this spiritual beast breaks through to the second level, will it resist the beast control rune?" He suddenly remembered something and sensed the beast control rune in the black toad.

His worries did not appear. Black Toad did not resist the beast control rune in his body and still obeyed his instructions docilely.

Yuan Ming breathed a sigh of relief, sensing Hei Chan's current magical power.

The purple-black round bead in the black toad's body is its inner elixir, which is similar to the snake bead of the Snake King. It is made of the condensed demon power of the whole body. It can be used as a magic weapon after it is completely stabilized.

The inner elixir of each monster beast has different abilities. The snake bead of the Golden Flower Poison Python is indestructible and can be used to directly blast the enemy. The inner elixir of the black toad is different, and its ability is more poisonous.

The purple and black inner elixir contains the toad venom of the black toad, which is much more toxic than before and can be used in many more ways than before.

In addition to poisoning, the Black Toad's inner elixir also has the ability to absorb the poison of other poisons, store it in the inner elixir, and then release it when necessary.

"Can you still absorb poison? Give it a try..." Yuan Ming thought and controlled the black toad to open his mouth and inhale.

The green poisonous mist and poisonous miasma in the snake cave rolled into the ground, and the long whale absorbed water into the black toad's inner elixir.

The originally purple-black inner alchemy surface was now covered with green shadows, making it look a little weirder.
