Chapter 159: Extracting the Marrow

This scene was like the sky collapsing for everyone present, as a fierce gale suddenly descended from mid-air. Wang Lin, without a word, slapped his Storage Pouch and pulled out a large number of defensive jade talismans. He had many of these jade talismans; after killing people and seizing treasures, low-grade Magic Treasures such as these were countless.

These jade talismans transformed into layers of light screens, instantly enveloping Wang Lin's body. He calmly dodged to the side, leaping out just as the gale struck.

At the same time, Gu Di and the Demonic Lord of Six Desires stopped. Without any extra words, Gu Di's face showed solemnity as he threw an ancient bell from his Storage Pouch. The ancient bell instantly grew larger upon appearing, then vibrated slightly, emitting bursts of chimes. Circles of invisible ripples immediately spread out, and the surrounding stones instantly shattered under the waves.

The serpentine creature descending from the sky twisted its body, and just as it turned its head, it collided head-on with these ripples. It immediately let out a low growl and spewed a cloud of black mist from its mouth.

This black mist was extremely powerful; as soon as the surrounding stones touched it, they instantly turned into black ash and dissipated.

The black mist spewed by the serpentine creature was handled by Meng Tuozi. He touched the pus-filled swelling on his face, immediately crushed one of them, and an unbearable stench instantly emanated from the broken pustule, with a trickle of black liquid flowing out.

Tuozi's body vanished instantly, reappearing before the black mist impact. With a ferocious expression, he opened his mouth and inhaled sharply. The black mist immediately rushed in, all of it being sucked into his mouth. Gradually, the hump on his back slowly grew larger, and by the time all the black mist was completely absorbed, it was as if he was carrying a small mountain on his back.

He stood swaying on a nearby stone, his eyes flickering as he stared silently at the serpentine creature. On his face, from the pustule that had just been crushed, faint black gases emanated, all of which were absorbed into the belly of the toad perched on his shoulder.

The Demonic Lord of Six Desires, at the moment Gu Di threw out the giant bell, formed strange Hand Seals with both hands, muttering incantations, then his gaze swept over and landed on Wang Lin.

Wang Lin's eyes flickered, and he immediately retreated a few steps. Without hesitation, he took out the Nascent Soul-grade Magic Treasure jade talisman. At the same time, he spat out a crystal light, which flashed and appeared before him, its sword tip pointing at the Demonic Lord of Six Desires.

The Demonic Lord of Six Desires' gaze lingered for a moment, then swept past, landing this time on the young man beside him. The young man's face showed terror, nervously staring at the serpentine creature, his body trembling slightly.

"Fear!" The Demonic Lord of Six Desires' eyes flashed, and he suddenly uttered a single word.

The young man's body immediately trembled, and a black Qi emanated from his mouth and nose, quickly condensing into a black sharp sword that left his body and floated before the Demonic Lord of Six Desires.

The young man's body swayed, and he stood blankly in place, his eyes filled with confusion.

With his right hand pointing at the black sharp sword, the Demonic Lord of Six Desires uttered several complex and incomprehensible sounds. Gradually, the sword body grew larger and larger, eventually almost becoming a sky-piercing giant sword.

All of this happened in an extremely short time. At this moment, the serpentine creature was colliding head-on with the giant bell's ripples and spewing black mist. The Demonic Lord of Six Desires quickly commanded, "Go!"

The black sharp sword before him instantly swung up, rapidly slashing towards the seven-inch mark on the serpentine creature's head. With a bang, the sharp sword struck the giant snake's head. The giant snake cried out in pain, violently shaking its head, and the black sharp sword was immediately knocked far away.

At this moment, the young man beside the Demonic Lord of Six Desires suddenly spurted blood from his mouth and nose, his body instantly becoming extremely weak, but his eyes became even more bewildered.

Gu Di beckoned with his right hand, and the giant bell immediately began to rotate. Its sound grew heavier and more dense, with countless ripples, one after another, frantically spreading towards the creature.

The giant snake had just knocked away the black sharp sword when it was struck by the giant bell's ripples. Its body suddenly trembled, its eyes revealing a bloodthirsty glint. It suddenly opened its terrifying maw, and as its mouth, no smaller than a small mountain, opened, a phantom flashed out from within. At the same time, Gu Di's expression changed, and his giant bell suddenly vanished in mid-air.

Wang Lin's Divine Sense had been locked onto the serpentine creature. He watched carefully, and at the moment the creature opened its mouth, another smaller snake head appeared within its maw. This slightly smaller snake head flashed out, bit the giant bell, and rapidly retracted.

Meng Tuozi, on a distant stone, his eyes suddenly lit up. Staring at the serpentine creature, he licked his lips and was about to rush out, but the creature's massive mouth had already closed.

Meng Tuozi's unusual behavior was seen clearly by Wang Lin. He had always been wary of everyone present, and of course, he couldn't forget this master of poison.

At this moment, the Demonic Lord of Six Desires, without a word, once again cast his gaze upon the young man beside him. He pointed at the center of the young man's brows with his right hand and shouted, "Rage!"

A purplish-red gas emanated from the young man's mouth, nose, and seven orifices, once again forming a sharp sword that left his body and floated before the Demonic Lord of Six Desires.

Duanmu Ji's eyes were gloomy. He glanced at Wang Qingyue, and the two understood each other, immediately leaping down and rushing downwards. Their speed was extremely fast, and in a blink of an eye, they reached the midsection of the serpentine creature's body, immediately unleashing their Magic Treasures and launching an attack.

Duanmu Ji was no longer using a Gourd, but a huge silver-glowing awl. Every time the awl struck, countless Lightning Orbs would condense in the Void Realm and strike out with the awl.

As for Wang Qingyue, he had no Magic Treasure in his hands, but as his hands clasped together, five ancient characters for metal, wood, water, fire, and earth appeared out of thin air, forming a Five Elements array, which simultaneously bombarded the serpentine creature's body.

Wang Lin's heart trembled. The Spells of these five people were all immensely powerful, far beyond what ordinary people could achieve. What particularly caught his attention was the Demonic Lord of Six Desires' Spell. This Spell definitely required a recipient, and that young man, unfortunately, became that person!

At this moment, the serpentine creature cried out in pain, its body immediately spinning wildly, and a Vortex quickly appeared around it. The surrounding floating stones were involuntarily pulled into it.

After this massive Vortex appeared, Duanmu Ji and Wang Qingyue were the first to rush out from below, both their faces gloomy. As for Gu Di, his expression was even uglier; he had lost connection with his Magic Treasure.

The Vortex grew larger and larger, its immense suction forcing everyone to retreat quickly.

The purplish-red sharp sword before the Demonic Lord of Six Desires emitted an eerie, evil glow. As his eyes flashed, the sharp sword immediately shot out. At the same time, the black sharp sword that had been knocked away earlier also flashed out. The two sharp swords were extremely fast, instantly piercing towards the serpentine creature's eyes.

The moment they touched its eyes, the sharp swords instantly transformed into gas and drilled inside through the eyes.

The serpentine creature's body suddenly paused, letting out a frantic roar. Its eyes flashed with red light, and two gases, one black and one purplish-red, were forcibly expelled from its eyes. At this moment, it opened its large mouth again, and another snake head quickly rushed out from within, swallowing the two gases in one gulp.

At this instant, Wang Lin's eyes flashed with cold light. He had been waiting for this opportunity. He leaped out, and his speed doubled after entering the Vortex, drilling into the giant snake's maw in a blink of an eye.

At the same time, a green light flashed beside him. Meng Tuozi, who had been observing coldly from a distance, also had the same idea. He was slightly startled when he saw Wang Lin, then revealed an appreciative smile.

However, this smile looked rather cruel.

Meng Tuozi's body flashed past. His target was the other snake within the snake's mouth. Seeing this, Wang Lin immediately changed direction, drilling downwards along the giant snake's mouth. His target was the creature's spinal bone!

Li Muwan once said that for all such flood Dragon-like creatures, the most precious part of their entire body was not the flood Dragon Core, but its marrow fluid! Wang Lin risked entering precisely for the marrow fluid.

From the moment he saw this serpentine creature, he had been secretly observing. What Li Muwan had said about the various miraculous effects of marrow fluid included one point: depending on the flood Dragon's age, if it lived to a certain extent, its marrow fluid could more or less slightly increase the chance of forming a Nascent Soul.

Although he didn't know if this creature was a flood Dragon, from its appearance, even if it wasn't, it should be a similar species. If he could extract its marrow fluid, then the effect would presumably still be considerable.

So, he rushed in the moment the creature opened its mouth for the second time. In fact, Meng Tuozi also entered the snake's mouth; Wang Lin had long sensed this. When the creature opened its mouth for the first time, he had seen Meng Tuozi's various expressions from afar.

This made his resolve to enter the snake's mouth even stronger. Previously, he had some reservations, worrying that if he extracted the marrow fluid, someone might suspect him. But now that Meng Tuozi had also entered, even if there was something unusual about this creature, it could all be attributed to Meng Tuozi.

Moreover, since the two chose different directions and there was no intersection between them, Meng Tuozi would definitely not discover Wang Lin's actions, so there should be no problem.

Furthermore, even if someone suspected him, they wouldn't act against him at this moment, as these people's purpose in coming in was not the marrow fluid, but the ancient god's corpse.

Along the way, Wang Lin's crystal light Flying Sword flashed out, but it couldn't leave even a trace of injury on it.

The further down he went, the heavier Wang Lin's heart became. Inside this giant snake, apart from a slightly smaller snake body, there was nothing. The surrounding flesh walls were black and slowly wriggling.

Wang Lin controlled his Flying Sword and thrust it sharply at a point, but unfortunately, it still couldn't leave a mark. The spinal column must be deeply buried beneath this flesh, but now he couldn't injure the opponent in the slightest, which made Wang Lin frown.

His eyes flickered, and he moved to the side. This time, his target was the junction between the snake's head and neck.

Just then, the slightly smaller snake body inside the giant snake suddenly trembled, and wisps of black mist seeped out from under its skin. Wang Lin's body flashed, and he quickly rushed towards the snake's head.

Soon, he arrived at the snake's head. At the junction of the head and neck, there was a thin membrane glowing with red light. Wang Lin took a deep breath, his entire body's spiritual power surging. He slapped his Storage Pouch, and immediately hundreds of Flying Swords appeared together. His Divine Sense swept over them, concentrating on them, and all the Flying Swords immediately pointed their tips at the membrane, shooting out frantically.
