Immortal God of War-Chapter 86: Accidentally Entering the Snake Hole_1
Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Accidentally Entering the Snake Hole_1
Both of them grimaced in pain, their teeth gritted! Especially where they had been hit by the stone fragments, the flesh was mangled. Blood continuously oozed from their wounds! In an instant, they both looked like men soaked in blood!
WHOOSH!
A few dark figures landed one after another on the riverbank. Through the moonlight, their true faces and the murderous intent in their eyes were clearly visible!
"It’s you!"
Qin Feiyang and Ling Yunfei paled drastically.
These individuals were the Clan Elders of the Ling Family!
"Run!" Qin Feiyang shouted lowly. He rolled over, got up, and ignoring his injuries, ran towards the forest behind him.
However, he hadn’t run more than a few steps before he halted, staring forward, his pupils suddenly shrinking.
Because there were several more dark figures within the forest ahead!
Simultaneously, figures also emerged from their left and right!
They were all Clan Elders from the Ling Family.
In total, there were thirteen of them!
Ling Yunfei scanned the thirteen men, his face utterly pale, and asked, "Jian Haotian, what do we do now?"
Qin Feiyang asked, "How strong are they?"
Ling Yunfei answered gravely, "Eleven one-star Martial Ancestors, two two-star Martial Ancestors."
Qin Feiyang’s heart sank. With thirteen Martial Ancestors against them, his and Ling Yunfei’s current strength offered no chance of victory!
"Why don’t you run?"
"Go on, keep going! Why did you stop? I’m telling you, today you won’t escape even if you grew wings!"
The thirteen men advanced step by step, surrounding the two in the center, their faces bearing ominous grins.
Qin Feiyang said grimly, "To be able to deliver the letter into our hands, your Divine Skills are truly vast!"
One of them laughed coldly. "We actually have to thank the City Lord for his help. Otherwise, we really wouldn’t have been able to get the letter to you."
Upon hearing this, the eyes of Qin Feiyang and Ling Yunfei instantly flashed with killing intent!
"Don’t talk nonsense!" another elder hastily warned him.
"What’s there to be afraid of? They’re about to die. It’s okay to let them know," the man retorted with disdain.
"That’s right. With so many of us, we don’t believe they can fly away," another person immediately seconded.
Qin Feiyang asked, "Were you also the ones who massacred the Ling Family?"
"Bullshit!"
"We are Clan Elders of the Ling Family! Would we massacre our own family?"
"This was all done by the Jiang and Mu families!"
"The City Lord has already investigated everything clearly. It’s just that the situation in Black Bear City is currently too chaotic, so he hasn’t announced it yet."
"After we kill you, we will begin our revenge, ensuring the Jiang and Mu families are wiped out to repay this blood debt!"
The thirteen men exuded a palpable killing aura.
"So, it really was them," Qin Feiyang grumbled, then said disdainfully, "I don’t know about the Mu Family, but the Jiang Family is backed by the Grand Pavilion Master of Yan Province. Do you dare to touch the Jiang Family?"
"The Ling Family has already been destroyed! We have nothing left to lose, so we’re not afraid to drag you down with us, even if it means mutual destruction!"
"Enough talk!"
"He might be stalling for time!"
"Attack!"
The thirteen men simultaneously quickened their pace, True Qi flaring from their bodies, their eyes glinting with ferocious light.
"Even if the enemy is overwhelmingly strong, we can’t just sit here and wait for death! Follow me closely!" Qin Feiyang roared lowly, then surprisingly charged towards one of the men.
Ling Yunfei was startled and hurriedly followed.
Because at this point, they had no other choice. All their escape routes were blocked; they could only fight desperately to tear open a gap.
"Overestimating your own abilities!" the man sneered. Just as he closed in, he lifted his arm, palm striking towards Qin Feiyang, his True Qi sweeping in all directions!
However, not only did Qin Feiyang not stop, but he also charged even more fiercely!
"Seeking death!" The man laughed, his smile exceptionally brilliant.
But suddenly, Qin Feiyang took a swift step sideways, and the palm strike passed harmlessly in front of his chest.
At that very moment, his eyes glinted with a cold light! He abruptly raised his arm and swung it down forcefully.
A flash of white divine light cut through the night sky. Blood gushed from the man’s right shoulder like a pillar!
In the next instant, his entire arm detached from the shoulder and fell to the ground.
"Ah..." The man was stunned for a moment. When excruciating pain swept through his body, he couldn’t help but let out an agonizing howl.
Seizing the opportunity, Qin Feiyang and Ling Yunfei rushed past him and dashed into the forest without looking back.
This sudden turn of events left the other twelve men dumbfounded.
The injured man roared, "What are you standing there for? Hurry and chase them! Be careful of the weapon in his hand!"
The twelve men snapped back to their senses and immediately plunged into the forest, chasing after Qin Feiyang and Ling Yunfei.
Ling Yunfei glanced back and said in a low voice, "They’re catching up! With our speed, they’ll catch us in at most five breaths!"
Both of them were using Smoke Step and Return to Origin Step, running as fast as the wind, their speed already pushed to its limits! However, compared to a Martial Ancestor, their speed was comparable to a snail’s crawl.
Qin Feiyang scanned the area ahead. Although it was a forest, there was nowhere to hide.
What should we do? he thought, his mind racing. Am I really going to have to hide in the ancient castle? Although he currently trusted Ling Yunfei, he still didn’t want others to know about the ancient castle. After all, it was hard to know what was truly in a person’s heart; it was always wise to be cautious.
CRACK!
Suddenly, the earth beneath them gave way, and their bodies plunged straight down.
It turned out there was a deep pit here! Because it was night, they couldn’t see the bottom. It was likely a trap set by hunters to catch ferocious beasts.
"Damn it, how could we be so unlucky!" Ling Yunfei cursed. They were already in a desperate situation, and now they had fallen into a trap. This undoubtedly made things worse for them!
There’s no choice, I’ll have to go to the ancient castle, Qin Feiyang resolved. Wait! Why is there an echo? He looked around in surprise.
Ling Yunfei’s angry curses echoed below, lingering for a long time! If it were just a trap, it would be at most a few meters deep, and such an echo wouldn’t occur.
There was very likely an underground passage below.
THUMP! THUMP!
Both men landed at the bottom almost simultaneously. It was about ten-odd meters deep. Such a height wouldn’t cause them any serious injury.
"They’re down there!"
"Let’s go! Down we go!"
"This must be a trap. They can’t escape!"
Sinister voices echoed from the pit’s opening above.
Immediately after, Qin Feiyang and Ling Yunfei felt others jumping down after them.
"Does anyone have a fire stater?" Qin Feiyang asked urgently. His voice echoed.
Inside, it was pitch black. They couldn’t see their hands in front of their faces, nor could they distinguish north, south, east, or west.
"Yes!" Ling Yunfei answered. He pulled out a fire stater from his bosom, and after blowing it alight, the area instantly brightened.
The two men immediately noticed a round, dark opening to their left. It was almost as large as a dustpan, requiring them to bend over to pass through.
Looking up, they saw an old man rapidly descending.
"Quick, quick, quick!" Qin Feiyang urged.
Bending over, they entered the dark opening one after the other and fled into its depths without looking back!
After they had delved a few dozen meters, Ling Yunfei frowned. "Jian Haotian, I have a feeling something’s not right."
Qin Feiyang said, "I have the same feeling. Tunnels are usually rectangular, so why is this one circular? It doesn’t look like it was dug by humans."
"Little bastards, let’s see where you can run now!" At this moment, a cold sneer echoed from behind them.
Without needing to look back, they knew the twelve Clan Elders were pursuing them.
"Lingering like troublesome ghosts!" Ling Yunfei cursed under his breath.
"Huh?" Qin Feiyang suddenly asked, "Can you smell that? There seems to be a rank odor."
"Rank odor?" Ling Yunfei paused, sniffed hard, and frowned. "You’re right, there really is a rank odor."
Qin Feiyang said, "I think we might..."
"What?" Ling Yunfei asked.
Qin Feiyang swallowed hard and said, "This is very likely a snake lair!"
Upon hearing this, the hairs on Ling Yunfei’s body stood on end, an uncontrollable chill rising in his heart! If this truly is a snake lair... one can only imagine how long and thick that snake must be!
HISS!
Suddenly, a hissing sound echoed from the depths of the dark passage.
Qin Feiyang and Ling Yunfei’s bodies stiffened, their scalps tingling! If this wasn’t a snake lair, then what else could it be?
Following that, the ground began to tremble slightly. It felt as if something was crawling towards them from within.
An unknown giant python lay ahead, while twelve Martial Ancestors were closing in from behind. What were they to do now? They had thought this was an escape route, but they hadn’t expected it to be a true dead end!
Meanwhile, the twelve Ling Family Clan Elders also heard the commotion. They halted their steps and looked ahead with apprehension.
Ling Yunfei spun around and yelled at the twelve, "This is a snake lair! Get out quickly!"
"Snake lair!"
"A snake lair as large as a dustpan... Doesn’t that mean the snake is at least a meter thick?!"
"Quick, quick, quick, retreat!"
The twelve men paled in fright and hurriedly turned back. If they were out in the open, they wouldn’t be afraid. But here, they had to bend over just to walk, let alone fight a giant python.
Ling Yunfei looked at Qin Feiyang and said, "We should retreat too!"
"We can’t go out," Qin Feiyang said, grabbing his arm.
"If we don’t go out, we’ll die!" Ling Yunfei retorted sharply.
"If you were them, what would you do?" Qin Feiyang asked, while scanning the walls on either side.
Ling Yunfei answered without hesitation, "If I were them, after leaving the snake lair, I would block the entrance up there..."
As he spoke, Ling Yunfei had a sudden realization. Exactly! After the twelve men got out, they would surely block the entrance to the snake lair, preventing us from escaping. At that point, Qin Feiyang and I would only be left to be swallowed alive by the giant python! ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
BOOM!
Just then, the entrance to the snake lair exploded with a loud bang. With a rumbling sound, the entrance was sealed shut!
"They really planned it this way!" Ling Yunfei’s face turned deathly pale.
BANG!
Suddenly, another loud sound exploded beside them. Startled, Ling Yunfei looked over just in time to see Qin Feiyang punch the wall to their left. A dark hole, two to three meters wide, instantly appeared.
"What are you doing?" Ling Yunfei asked in confusion.
Qin Feiyang snatched the fire stater from his hand and said, "Enough talk. I’m making a hideout. Get in."
Ling Yunfei looked at him dubiously but quickly ducked into the dark hole.
Qin Feiyang walked back a short distance, stuck the fire stater into the ground, then quickly entered the new passage, crouching down and peering out into the depths of the snake lair.
Seeing this, Ling Yunfei frowned. "Are you sure this is a refuge?"
"More accurately, it’s an ambush spot," Qin Feiyang whispered.
"Ambush spot!" Ling Yunfei exclaimed in shock.
The ground trembled more and more violently; dirt and small stones were falling from above.
"It’s coming!" Qin Feiyang’s gaze sharpened.
An enormous snake’s head came into his line of sight!
It was as large as two washbasins! Its long, narrow eyes, under the faint light of the fire stater, glinted with a sinister light! And on top of its head, there was even a horn as thick as an arm!
"One-Horned Python!" Qin Feiyang tensed from head to toe. He had seen this kind of giant python in the Imperial Capital before; it was extremely terrifying!
Its venom could kill instantly! That horn was dozens of times harder than black iron—utterly indestructible!
Qin Feiyang tightened his grip on Blue Snow, large beads of sweat appearing on his forehead, showing just how tense he was!
