Chapter 1501: Chapter 1492: The Changing Situation
As for the shock of the others present, Ye Chenfeng completely ignored it. The voice that suddenly sounded in his mind was so strange that he asked inwardly, "Old Bai, Old Hei, did you hear it?"
Jiang Yuntian, the Black Shadow Person, asked, "Kid, what are you talking about?"
Wu Fengxian, the White Shadow Person, also said, "Little guy, did you hear something?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Chenfeng was certain that even Old Hei and Old Bai hadn’t heard the voice just now. Just as he was about to explain to them, the blue gas within thirty meters outside the cave suddenly began to churn. As the churning continued, the blue gas became increasingly thin until eventually, it completely disappeared into the air.
The cultivators present were still immersed in their shock at Ye Chenfeng, but when they saw the blue gas that had blocked them inexplicably vanish, they didn’t have time to remain shocked by Ye Chenfeng. A fervent gleam erupted in their eyes, as greed once again filled their hearts.
Now that the blue gas had disappeared, it meant that they could enter the ruins.
A middle-aged man at the Second Heavenly Layer of Reincarnation Realm, upon confirming the disappearance of the blue gas, rushed towards the cave first. Following his action, the other cultivators present quickly regained their senses and closely followed the middle-aged man into the cave.
Song Haiyun, the Supreme Elder of the Hall of Sea Gods in the sky, also hadn’t expected the blue gas to vanish suddenly. No longer caring to dwell on Ye Chenfeng, his figure quickly flashed towards the cave entrance. Using his strength, he soon arrived side by side with the middle-aged man at the Second Heavenly Layer of Reincarnation Realm at the cave entrance.
Ye Chenfeng watched as each cultivator rushed past him, his eyebrows tightly knit together. He had a strong feeling that the cave was unusual, and he backed out quickly, leaving the crowded scene.
The cultivators who brushed past Ye Chenfeng looked at him as if he were a fool. When the blue gas was blocking the way, Ye Chenfeng insisted on heading towards the cave entrance, but now that the blue gas was gone, Ye Chenfeng retreated. This made many cultivators think there was something wrong with Ye Chenfeng’s mind.
Bai Xiaorou naturally stayed by Ye Chenfeng’s side. As for the two old men, Wu Qingshan and Zuo Deyuan, they also gave up entering the cave immediately and came to Ye Chenfeng’s side, asking, "Brother, are you alright?"
Then, Wu Qingshan’s gaze turned towards the cave entrance, seeing Song Haiyun and a middle-aged man at Reincarnation Realm rushing in first, which deeply displeased him. The ruins were on his Sunset Island, discovered by him long ago.
Yet now, seeing so many people rushing into the ruins made Wu Qingshan feel like he was dressing someone else’s bride.
Just as Song Haiyun was the first to reach the cave entrance and was about to enter, two blood-red light spots shone from the dark cave, followed by a violent momentum bursting out from within, causing Song Haiyun’s face to dramatically change right before he entered.
A massive scorpion with a blue body and red eyes rushed out from the cave.
This scorpion was about six meters long, and its two large blue pincers were strikingly eye-catching. Clearly, the two blood-red spots were its eyes.
A formidable aura of the late stage Nirvana Realm Third Heavenly Layer emanated from this gigantic blue scorpion.
The giant blue scorpion’s tail swiftly struck towards Song Haiyun. Caught off guard by the unexpected appearance of a Nirvana Realm beast from the cave, the poison sting of the scorpion’s tail instantly embedded itself into Song Haiyun’s left arm.
Song Haiyun bellowed from his throat, and after the poison sting pierced his arm, the aura within his body soared to the extreme, and his right palm struck towards the blue giant scorpion.
"Bang!"
The blue giant scorpion was directly sent flying back into the cave by Song Haiyun, and he immediately soared into the sky.
All this happened so rapidly and suddenly that the steps of the cultivators present came to an abrupt halt.
Watching from afar at the cave entrance, Wu Qingshan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Sea King Scorpion? It’s actually a Sea King Scorpion?"
The Sea King Scorpion is one of the rulers of the sea, extremely rare in the current Earth Profound Realm, especially one at the late stage of Nirvana Realm Third Heavenly Layer.
The venom of a Sea King Scorpion is incredibly potent, and without an antidote immediately administered, even a Nirvana Realm expert would likely succumb to it within five days.
Zuo Deyuan, the ancestor of Yunxian Sect, was also dripping with cold sweat on his forehead. He said, "What’s going on? What’s with this ruin? We’ve entered so many times before, how come we’ve never encountered a Sea King Scorpion?"
Meanwhile, in the sky, Song Haiyun’s left sleeve had already been shattered. The left arm, pierced by the Sea King Scorpion’s poison sting, now displayed a blue line, spreading towards his heart.
Song Haiyun didn’t have the antidote for the Sea King Scorpion’s poison sting on him. After hesitating for just half a second, he grabbed his left arm with his right hand and forcefully tore it off, his entire left arm was ripped away, and blood spurted into the sky instantly.
Without the antidote, this was Song Haiyun’s only option. To prevent the poison from spreading throughout his body, he had to sever his left arm.
This time, Song Haiyun couldn’t reap any gain; he was deeply embarrassed and his face slightly pale, with his internal fury continuously burning.
The cultivators, utterly stunned by the scene before them, slowly came back to their senses. The middle-aged man at the Second Heavenly Layer of Reincarnation Realm standing closest to the cave entrance was sweating profusely. It was a Nirvana Realm Sea King Scorpion just now! He no longer had the courage to rush into the cave.
Just as this Reincarnation Realm middle-aged man was about to retreat, a great rumble sounded from the cave again, and an even stronger aura burst out from it.
A massive python, as thick as a water barrel, swiftly emerged from the cave. The python had a silver body, measuring over thirty meters long, and it emitted an aura of the Peak of Nirvana Realm Third Heavenly Layer.
The silver python swung its tail, and it wrapped around the Reincarnation Realm middle-aged man instantly.
The silver python continued to tighten its grip around the man, while he frantically increased his inner aura, but his strength seemed ridiculously insignificant in front of the python.
"Crack! Crack! Crack!"
Soon, the sound of bones breaking came from the man’s body, his mouth constantly spewing blood, and the vitality in his eyes rapidly dissipated.
After the Reincarnation Realm middle-aged man completely died, the silver python continued to constrict, crushing the Reincarnation Realm expert into a puddle of blood, demonstrating its tremendous power.
From a distance, Zuo Deyuan took a deep breath when he saw the silver-bodied python and said, "Silver-bodied Sea Python? A Silver-bodied Sea Python at the Peak of Nirvana Realm Third Heavenly Layer?"
Like the Sea King Scorpion, the Silver-bodied Sea Python is also a ruler of the sea, yet extremely rare in the current Earth Profound Realm.
But now, unexpectedly, a Nirvana Realm Sea King Scorpion and a Silver-bodied Sea Python had burst out of these ruins? This situation was beyond the comprehension of Wu Qingshan and Zuo Deyuan.
Ye Chenfeng, with the Black Xuan Sword on his back, looked at the distant Silver-bodied Sea Python. He tried to reach out with his perception, and immediately realized the python responded to him and even displayed a gesture of goodwill, which greatly surprised him.
Recalling the enigmatic voice that echoed in his mind earlier, Ye Chenfeng started to suspect if someone resided in the depths of this cave. All these peculiarities heightened Ye Chenfeng’s interest in the cave, confirming his resolve to explore these ruins.
