Chapter 171: Little snake, do you dare to swallow a dragon?

At this time, Meng Tian, ​​the commander of the Golden Fire Cavalry, quickly said, "Sprinkle realgar!"

He had long anticipated that there would be many snakes and insects in the Shu Mountains, so he ordered each cavalryman to carry some realgar powder.

This is a powerful weapon for dealing with poisonous snakes. Just sprinkle it on the snake and it will quickly escape.

Following Meng Tian's order, the cavalrymen took out realgar powder from their arms and sprinkled it on the white snakes on their bodies.

For a moment, the air was filled with a pungent smell of sulfur, and the white snakes twisted their bodies and hissed in pain.

They knew what the powder meant to them, so they gave up the prey in front of them and quickly fled the scene.

"One leaf blocks my view!"
However, the Wu Clan did not give up. They had long expected that the Golden Fire Cavalry would have countermeasures, so they also prepared other means in the trap.

When the white snake retreated, all the Shushan fighters suddenly disappeared.

The Blindness is a kind of Shushan witchcraft, which can hide the body and then launch a sneak attack on the opponent.

"Kakaka..."

Soon, many cavalrymen fell off their horses, with their necks twisted into strange angles.

Meng Tian realized that the people of Shushan were using witchcraft to hide their bodies and launch a sneak attack.

"Scatter! Shoot!"

At Meng Tian's command, the cavalry charging in the front immediately dispersed, and the cavalry at the back took out crossbows and began to shoot.

"Ah!"
There was a sudden sound of screams. Yu Yuan's guards were the elite troops of Mount Shu, and they often fought with wild beasts in the mountains. The moment Meng Tian gave the order, they quietly followed the scattered cavalry to avoid arrows.

But the other people from Shushan who were proficient in witchcraft did not have this reaction ability. They were unable to dodge and were soon stabbed like hedgehogs.

Seeing this, Yu Ziheng remembered the military principle of capturing the leader first. He decisively gave up attacking the Golden Fire Cavalry and instead rushed towards Meng Tian.

"despair!"

Just when Yu Ziheng was about to approach Meng Tian, ​​a snap of fingers suddenly sounded in Yu Ziheng's ears.

The next second, Yu Ziheng's figure appeared in the air in front of Meng Tian, ​​and the blindfold on his body was removed at the same time.

"Rumble, rumble, rumble..."

Gongsun Ce's bronze carriage slowly drove into the square. Gongsun Ce lifted the curtain and waved to Yu Ziheng, and Yu Ziheng came uncontrollably to the front of the bronze carriage.

Gongsun Ce's hand passed through the curtain and pressed on Yu Ziheng's Baihui acupoint. His true energy entered Yu Ziheng's body from the Baihui acupoint, flowed through his limbs and bones, reached his Dantian, and finally left.

After a simple investigation, Gongsun Ce confirmed one thing: there was no true energy in Yu Ziheng's body, but there was a very strange power.

It should be the so-called ancient power, not like true qi or will, somewhat similar to the legendary power of Bai Yan.

However, the legendary power in Yu Ziheng's body is very weak, and it can only allow him to exert the perfect power of a master, which is far less than the power of a grand master.

Gongsun Ce hooked his hand again, and the two hidden Yu Yuan guards floated in front of Gongsun Ce uncontrollably. Gongsun Ce followed the same method to investigate.

The result was the same, the legendary power on them was not as strong as that on Yu Ziheng.

"Are you the leader of Yu Yuan's guards? The great shaman of Mount Shu?"

"Yes, it is me. You thieves who covet the sacred Fusang tree will not have a good death!"

Gongsun Ce shook his head. "It's hard to say who the thief is. Feiyan, release the Dragon Swimming Qi and see."

Feiyan nodded, and the dragon energy turned into a three-legged golden crow.

And at the moment when Feiyan transformed into a three-legged golden crow, a three-legged golden crow also appeared on the Fusang sacred tree, crying towards the sky.

"Wow!"

Feiyan's three-legged golden crow suddenly broke away from her control and flew towards the Fusang sacred tree.

Feiyan's three-legged golden crow revolved around the three-legged golden crow on the Fusang sacred tree for a moment.

The size of the Feiyan Three-legged Golden Crow expanded visibly, and upon closer inspection, it had expanded three times larger than before.

It was as if the three-legged golden crow had developed a second time. At the same time, its spirituality seemed to be stronger. Compared with its previous lifeless form, it now had a bit more breath of life.

The next moment, Feiyan's three-legged golden crow returned to her body. Feiyan's aura instantly soared, and she stepped across the middle and late grandmaster levels and reached the perfection of the grandmaster level.

In a short while, the aura of the red smoke showed signs of breaking through again.

Feiyan's state of mind and the intention of a master have not been sublimated at this moment. If she forces herself to enter the realm of a grand master, it will only cause endless harm.

Feiyan then forcibly suppressed the tendency to break through again and focused on consolidating her cultivation.

Yu Ziheng was completely dumbfounded at this point. No matter how he thought about it, he would never have thought that the Three-legged Golden Crow would be used by outsiders.

It was clearly them, the Yu Yuan guards, who had been protecting the sacred Fusang Tree for generations, and it was clearly them who arrived first.

Moreover, the three-legged golden crow on the Fusang sacred tree has been staying quietly on the Fusang sacred tree since it appeared in the world, with no intention of returning to the inside of the Fusang sacred tree.

Before this, the Shushan Witch Clan prayed every year for the appearance of the Three-legged Golden Crow, but the Three-legged Golden Crow never appeared. Yu Ziheng felt as if the sky had fallen and his faith had collapsed.

However, what made Yu Ziheng even more devastated was that after the charge of the Golden Fire Cavalry, only Yu Yuan's guards were still fighting on the field.

The rest of Shushan's combat forces had all been killed, and some of Yu Yuan's guards were also killed or injured.

However, this is not the most desperate thing for Yu Ziheng.

"Roar!"

"Not good!" Yu Ziheng's expression froze when he heard this voice. "How is this possible! How could the Bashen wake up at this time?"

Gongsun Ce caught Yu Ziheng's murmur, "Basilis snake? But doesn't the Classic of Mountains and Seas record that Basahedral snakes live in the area around Dongting Lake?

And because the Basah attacked passers-by, didn’t Huangdi send Houyi to kill the Basah?

Hey, what's the situation with the Bashe here?"

"My name is Yu Ziheng, not Hey! Besides, I don't know when this monster came to my Shushan.

All I know is that this monster has been hovering in my Shu Mountain for a long time, waking up once every hundred years to look for food.

After eating and drinking, he will continue to fall into a deep sleep until the next hundred years come."

As soon as Yu Ziheng finished speaking, a giant python coiled up from the bottom of the mountain and reached the giant square where the Fusang sacred tree was.

The moment Gongsun Ce saw the huge snake head, he couldn't help but touch his chin. It was very consistent with the description in "Classic of Mountains and Seas", with a pitch-black body and a green snake head.

The snake head alone was nearly twelve or thirteen meters high, while the highest point of the Xianyang Palace was only twelve meters high.

Gongsun Ce couldn't help but ask Yu Ziheng, "Old Yu, how did you avoid this thing before?"

"It is relying on the blessing of the Fusang sacred tree. As you can see, the python is now heading straight for the Fusang sacred tree. It is obvious that it is no longer afraid of the power of the Fusang sacred tree.

I think you better run! Otherwise you will be eaten by this monster and become a wandering soul."

Gongsun Ce shook his head. "Old Yu, you seem to have made a mistake. It is not heading towards the Fusang sacred tree, but towards Feiyan and me."

After saying that, Gongsun Ce casually threw Yu Ziheng to the flying soldier leader, "Keep an eye on him!"

Gongsun Ce drew out the two swords at his waist, made a sword flower, and told Feiyan, Nanyue and Yanlingji, "You three stay here, I'm going to buy some oranges."

Seeing the Basang Snake attacking, the Golden Fire Cavalry quickly retreated under the command of Meng Tian, ​​while Yu Yuan's guards thought that the Basang Snake wanted to lay their hands on the Fusang sacred tree.

Even though Yu Yuan's guards thought they were just trying to shake a tree with an ant's strength, they still rushed towards the Basah.

The python simply opened its mouth and sucked, and the remaining Yu Yuan guards along with the surrounding soil were swallowed by the python.

But this is just an appetizer for Bashe, its ultimate goal is still Gongsun Ce.

Bashe could feel that if he could eat Gongsun Ce, he would be able to sublimate his bloodline and reach a higher level, becoming truly invincible in the world.

The Sun-Covering Sword and the Tianwen Sword in Gongsun Ce's hands shone with cold light under the blessing of true energy and the master's will.

The python opened its bloody mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, and pounced towards Gongsun Ce.

Gongsun Ce flashed, jumped high, and landed directly on top of the Basashi's head.

He grasped two long swords in his hands and chopped at the python's head at the same time.

However, when the two swords collided with the python's head, only sparks flew.

Gongsun Ce frowned slightly. He did not expect that the defense of the Basashi was so strong that the Sun-Covering Sword and the Heavenly Question Sword could not break through it.

Gongsun Ce's eyes immediately swept across the body of the python, ready to find the weak point on its body to attack.

However, Bashe didn't seem to intend to give him this opportunity.

It realized that Gongsun Ce was above its head, and immediately began to roll over.

When the huge body of the python rolled, it was like a moving mountain, and the earth trembled wherever it passed.

The soil was blown up, forming clouds of flying dust.

Gongsun Ce stood on top of the Basashi's head, feeling the strong vibration, but his heart was calm.

He tapped his toes lightly, and his body floated up, suspended in the air, quietly watching the python roll. After the python rolled twice, it finally found Gongsun Ce floating in the air.

It turned around, opened its huge mouth, and prepared to swallow Gongsun Ce in one gulp.

However, Gongsun Ce did not show any fear. He was waiting for this moment.

The Sun-Covering Sword and the Heavenly Question Sword cannot break through the defense of the Basashi's scales. Could it be that the Basashi also has this kind of defense inside?
The moment the python opened its mouth, the Sun-Covering Sword in Gongsun Ce's hand suddenly flew out of his hand, turned into a stream of light, and flew directly into the python's body.

Under Gongsun Ce's control, the Sun-Covering Sword was destroying the body of the Basashi crazily, cutting its internal organs and muscles.

The python felt extreme pain and began to secrete large amounts of gastric juice in an attempt to digest the Sun-Covering Sword.

However, under Gongsun Ce's control, the Sun-Covering Sword was like a nimble fish, swimming in the body of the Basashi, constantly avoiding the erosion of gastric juice.

Finally, when the gastric juice of the python was exhausted, the Sun-Covering Sword broke through the python's abdomen, rushed out of its body, and then hovered behind Gongsun Ce.

Gongsun Ce actually disliked the smelly Sun-Covering Sword.

Gongsun Ce flashed and appeared at the wound on the abdomen of the python.

The Tianwen Sword then pierced into the wound of the Basnake. Gongsun Ce used the wound of the Basnake as a springboard and began to move forward towards the vital point of the Basnake.

The Tianwen Sword continued to cut open the snake's flesh and skin based on its wounds.

The body of the python is destroyed from the inside out, and its scales cannot form an effective defense at all.

He looked at the painful appearance of the Bashe, but there was no pity in his heart.

The python began to roll again in pain, forcing Gongsun Ce to break away from the python and dodge.

Gongsun Ce noticed that as the python rolled over, its wounds showed signs of healing.

Gongsun Ce immediately began to recite the dragon text.

Word Spirit: Eyes of the Wind King

A wisp of breeze penetrated into the wound of the python, and gradually formed a small tornado, tearing open the wound that was about to be repaired.

"Roar!"

The python rolled more and more frantically, but it could not escape the damage caused by the small tornado to its wounds.

Snake blood and gastric juice splattered all over the ground. Wherever the two went, flowers and plants withered and the soil was eroded.

Gongsun Ce then noticed that the blood of the python and his dragon blood were both extremely corrosive.

However, Gongsun Ce had no intention of taming the Basah as a pet.

The reason is simple. The creature called the Basilisk is impossible to control. Moreover, according to the characteristics of the Basilisk, it does not eat for a hundred years and sleeps for a hundred years after eating, so it is difficult for Gongsun Ce to feed this creature.

Soon, under the influence of the small tornado, the body of the python, which was more than 100 meters long, was gradually split into two.

At this time, Gongsun Ce noticed that the emerald green gallbladder in the body of the python gradually appeared.

The gallbladder of the basset snake is very large. Gongsun Ce initially estimated that this snake gallbladder might be three or four meters in diameter.

As the saying goes, the death of a centipede is that it is still alive but still stiff. Even though it was split into two, the body of the python was still resisting unconsciously.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

The only two intact snake heads and tails of the python slapped the ground frantically, causing dust to fly. Everyone present was shocked.

At this moment, Yu Ziheng looked at the white bones floating out of the Basashi's body and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Yu Yuan finished his guard, but it was not because he resisted the Golden Fire Cavalry, but because he was eaten alive by the Basah.

The few Shushan tribesmen who were proficient in witchcraft also died at the hands of the Golden Fire Cavalry.

At this moment, only the elderly, women, children and a few men with poor physical fitness were left on Mount Shu, including Yu Ziheng's own son.

From then on, Yu Ziheng could only hope that Gongsun Ce would not commit murder and kill them all.

In a short while, the resistance of the Basah weakened, but Gongsun Ce knew that the Basah still had the ability to resist.

So Gongsun Ce beckoned with Qingfeng and took the snake's gallbladder.

Sure enough, the moment the gallbladder left the body of the python, the python became energetic again and instinctively chased after the gallbladder.

After the snake's gallbladder was taken away, it should have been able to continue to survive for a while, but the python was already dying at the moment, and taking away its gallbladder would undoubtedly make the situation worse.

"Boom!"

Gongsun Ce clenched his right fist and swung out a punch. The breeze turned into a heavy punch and hit the head of the python hard, knocking down its raised head.

"Roar!"

The python let out a wail and fell heavily to the ground. Gongsun Ce looked at the python and touched his chin.

At this time, the python was undoubtedly a fish on the chopping board, at his mercy. However, even though the python had been tormented by the small tornado for a long time, it still had considerable vitality.

Gongsun Ce estimated that if the small tornado was cancelled now, the Bashen could survive for at least three to five days.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Ce added fuel to the fire.

Word Spirit: Blazing
As the sound of his reciting the Dragon Script rang out, the air around him seemed to be ignited and ripples began to appear.

Immediately afterwards, a ball of blazing flame burst out from Gongsun Ce's palm, quickly spreading out and forming a huge vortex of flames.

The small tornado on the python's body roared, absorbed the vortex of fire, and turned into a fire tornado that completely enveloped the python.

"Roar!"

The python let out an earth-shattering roar and tried to struggle free from the bondage of the flames, but Gongsun Ce's words were so powerful that how could it escape so easily?

In the tornado of fire, the body of the python began to twist violently.

Its scales began to melt under the high temperature, making a sizzling sound.

A burnt smell spread out, interweaving with the hot breath of the flames to form a unique flavor.

This smell seemed like the perfect combination of barbecue and fire, causing the surrounding group of golden fire cavalry to swallow their saliva involuntarily.

The wild animals in the mountains seemed to be attracted by the fragrance.

They came from all directions, with greed flashing in their eyes.

However, when they saw Gongsun Ce's terrifying fire tornado, they all stopped.

They knew that the power of the fire was enough to turn them into ashes in an instant.

Therefore, even though there are delicious foods in front of them, they can only watch from afar and dare not get close at all.

As time went by, the body of the python began to shrink gradually under the burning flames.

Its scales fell off piece by piece, and its body became shriveled and fragile.

The python's roar became weaker and weaker, and it had no strength to struggle anymore.

The body of the python began to shrink completely a hundred meters away.

Its body gradually became dry and brittle, like a piece of wood exposed to the scorching sun.

And in this dried body, seven basketball-sized beads actually condensed.

These beads are crystal clear and emit a faint light.

When Gongsun Ce saw these seven beads, he couldn't help but marvel at them.

He guessed that these beads should be condensed from the essence of the Basho snake. Although he was not sure what their specific functions were, they must be extraordinary.

He stretched out his hand carefully, and the breeze blew up the seven beads, and then the seven beads floated around Gongsun Ce.

Gongsun Ce grabbed one of the beads in his hand.

I just felt a warm and powerful force flowing from the beads into my body, making me feel as comfortable as if I were in a hot spring.

This power is similar to the power in the legend, and can subtly enhance a person's physique.

Gongsun Ce was overjoyed, he knew that he had really found a treasure this time.

He suspended the seven beads around his body, then looked down at the body of the python that was only left with snake bones.

Gongsun Ce floated down and walked in front of the snake bones. Under Gongsun Ce's control, the Sun-Covering Sword chopped towards the snake bones, making a deafening sound.

"when!"

Gongsun Ce rubbed his ears and confirmed that the snake bone was much harder than ordinary metal materials, even harder than the red gold from Kunwu Mountain that was used to make the Sun-Covering Sword.

In other words, as long as you find a way to polish the snake bone, it will become a natural famous sword.

At this moment, Gongsun Ce suddenly discovered that the group of wild beasts were still there. He lit up his golden eyes and glanced at the nearby beasts.

The beasts immediately trembled in their limbs, dared not stay, and left quickly.
