Invincible Snake Emperor

Chapter 512: Chapter 499: Over a Dozen Snake Demon Spirits

The dozen or so giant snakes, their auras radiating immense power, shot through the air and suspended themselves around Tu Xiao’an, coiling and circling him.

A dozen giant snakes of the Demon Spirit Level, all circling around a person—it was a scene not many could withstand. The sheer pressure of their combined snake auras could crush a person to death.

But who was Tu Xiao’an? How could he be intimidated? A corner of his mouth quirked up, and he raised an eyebrow. An arrogant, world-defying aura of a Snake King erupted from him, and a serpentine hiss soared toward the Azure Sky.

In response to the Snake King’s aura, a giant snake clad in dark Scale Armor flew before Tu Xiao’an. Its massive body flashed with light, and it transformed right then and there.

It transformed into a tall, imposing man dressed in a full set of black Battle Armor. With a look of reverence, he knelt in mid-air and said worshipfully to Tu Xiao’an, "Mutated Snake EMperor, here at your command. I pay my respects to the Lord Snake King."

Tu Xiao’an smiled and nodded, completely unafraid. He used his Conscious Insight to scan the demon’s stats. A Snake EMperor—the overlord among giant snakes.

An incredibly terrifying type of giant snake, extremely fierce and powerful. Even in its transformed state, it was an imposing man well over two meters tall.

Only in the Yaoling Mountain Range could a giant snake of this Level possibly appear. If it were in a human City, countless people would have been swallowed alive.

WHOOSH...!

Another giant snake flew toward Tu Xiao’an. Just before reaching him, it transformed into a human and knelt on one knee, respectfully declaring, "Mutated Green Phosphorus Snake, paying respects to the Lord Snake King! Long live the Lord Snake King!"

’A mutated Green Phosphorus Snake?’

After transforming, this snake was clad in a set of cyan Battle Armor that glinted with a faint, ghostly light. The armor was formed from its own Snake Scales, creating a set of impenetrable Battle Armor.

For a Snake Species to become a Rank Three Demon Spirit, its Snake Scales would have long since evolved to an unparalleled degree, boasting astonishing defensive power. Even a missile strike would likely be useless against it.

WHOOSH...!

While Tu Xiao’an was lost in thought, a young maiden had already appeared before him. She was demonic and alluring. Her Scale Armor protected the important peaks of her chest and was studded with glittering sequins, yet it also exposed half of each pale orb, making for an extremely revealing and bewitching sight.

Most stunning of all were her long legs—so pale they seemed to reflect light, so beautiful they were dazzling. She knelt before Tu Xiao’an with a bewitching, coquettish grace, her voice sultry and inviting as she said, "This servant, Mandala, greets her Master."

As she spoke, she shot Tu Xiao’an a flirtatious glance, her every movement oozing charm.

"Ahem..."

’She’s a complete little vixen,’ he thought. This was apparently the first time Tu Xiao’an had ever met a female Demon Spirit from the Snake Race.

Snakes might look terrifying, but their transformed female forms were exceptionally beautiful, possessing a natural, wicked charm.

Although this snake was a noble and transcendent Demon Spirit, it wasn’t excessive for her to call herself "this servant" in front of Tu Xiao’an.

After all, Tu Xiao’an had proven his path and been proclaimed King. All Snake Species under heaven were his subjects. He was the Supreme Monarch, holding the power of life and death over the entire Snake Race.

It was a good thing he wasn’t a lecher. Otherwise, this little vixen would have been relegated to warming his bed from now on.

Judging by the way she tried to seduce him the moment they met, she would likely be more than willing.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH...!

Several more giant snakes transformed. They came in all shapes and sizes—tall, short, fat, and thin—and their human forms were all quite presentable. Each wore a unique set of Battle Armor and exuded a wicked aura.

Tu Xiao’an had never even heard of these Snake Species. He had thought he knew snakes quite well, but these Snake Demon Spirits were anything but ordinary. Some of their species hadn’t produced a single specimen in hundreds of years.

ZING...!

Another maiden knelt gracefully beside Tu Xiao’an. This one had a great deal of personality. She wore a suit of iridescent Battle Armor, so form-fitting it perfectly outlined her stunning figure. The design was elegant, and she wore a red hat that partially concealed her beautiful face, giving her a very cool look.

She transformed and knelt without a word, merely lowering her beautiful head.

"And who are you?"

This was equivalent to asking what species of snake she was.

Tu Xiao’an didn’t use his Insight, but he could tell this cool Snake Maiden’s aura was clearly stronger than the other Demon Spirits’.

The moment this Snake Maiden knelt, the other Demon Spirits shifted to make way for her. Clearly, this maiden held a very high status within the Snake Race.

"Replying to My Lord, this servant is a Phoenix-tailed Crowned Snake." Her voice was crisp and clear, her answer simple and direct.

Tu Xiao’an was stunned. His eyes narrowed. ’Insight.’

"DING... Species: Mutated Phoenix-tailed Crowned Snake of the Snake Race. Class: Nobility among snakes. Level 34."

This Snake Maiden was actually at the Level of a Deep Mountain Great Demon. Tu Xiao’an was slightly taken aback; she was the same Level as him.

The reason she had particularly caught Tu Xiao’an’s attention was her snake species: the Crowned Snake.

The very first snake species Tu Xiao’an had Devoured for a major evolution was a Crowned King Snake, which had mutated from a common House Snake.

After Devouring that Crowned King Snake, Tu Xiao’an had gained the Thunder Attribute Ability upon evolving.

This species of snake was truly blessed by nature. At the Spirit Monster Level, they could already soar through the skies, as their bodies grew wings.

However, the maiden kneeling before him now was from an even more evolved lineage of the Crowned Snake, possessing an incredibly precious bloodline.

That Crowned Snake back then had taken revenge on a Zhao Family member to avenge its mistress. Its loyalty and righteousness had left a deep impression on Tu Xiao’an.

Because of this, Tu Xiao’an held this particular Snake Species in high regard.

Tu Xiao’an took a long, hard look at the red-hatted Snake Maiden. The "hat" on her head had to be the unique blood-red crown of a Crowned Snake, a very distinct symbol of her species.

Now, with over a dozen Snake Demon Spirits kneeling before him, Tu Xiao’an’s status as the Snake King was on full display.

"You may rise."

Tu Xiao’an took two steps through the air and personally helped the Phoenix-tailed Crowned Snake maiden to her feet with one hand.

The Snake Maiden was stunned by the honor. The other Snake Demon Spirits all glanced sideways. Everyone had transformed and knelt, yet Tu Xiao’an had singled this one out for special treatment.

However, the Crowned Snake maiden’s status was high and her power was great, so no one felt any resentment.

Tu Xiao’an felt a thrill of excitement. The power of the Snake Race in the Yaoling Mountain Range was far greater than he had ever imagined.

In a flash, over a dozen Snake Demon Spirits were kneeling before him. He glanced around and saw that beyond them was an ocean-like tide of snakes, a force no less massive than the tide of Rat Beasts.

’I’ve really struck it rich!’

’So this is how deep my foundations run,’ Tu Xiao’an thought, feeling like he’d just won the lottery.

Then, he took a few deep breaths, and his gaze turned indifferent and cold, becoming piercingly clear.

"Kill them," he commanded. "Today, This Snake King does not want to see a single rat leave Monkey Mountain alive."

The dozen or so Snake Demon Spirits shuddered, Battle Intent flaring in their eyes.

"Yes! We obey the Lord Snake King’s decree! Kill!"

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH...!

In an instant, the dozen or so Snake Demon Spirits transformed into streaks of light and shot into the tide of rats, slicing every Rat Beast they reached into a thousand pieces.

As terrifying as the tide of rats was, the tide of snakes formed by Tu Xiao’an’s Snake Race was its natural predator. With the arrival of the snake tide, the situation on Monkey Mountain instantly underwent a world-shaking change.
