Free Web NovelChapter 1184: Chapter 1184: Head-On Clash! Formidable Body
Seeing this, Lin An was rather hesitant as well. After all, everyone liked such a treasure, yet given his status he couldn’t openly favor anyone. He then said, "Since there’s so much dispute over who this belongs to, and the road ahead is fraught with unknown dangers, we should be conserving our strength right now. I’ll keep this herb for the time being, and once this trip is over we’ll decide its ownership."
Hearing this, everyone stopped arguing and voiced their agreement one after another.
Just as Lin An put the Snow Leisure Grass away, Yang Yan’s brows furrowed. With a grave expression, he walked to Lin An’s side and said, "Sect Leader, something’s happening."
At his words, everyone grew alert and carefully scanned their surroundings. Sure enough, something was approaching through the grass to their front-left.
In an instant, everyone was in full battle formation. fгeewebnovёl.com
After all, with the Sect Leaders of the three great sects here, plus Yang Yan and countless disciples, no ordinary creature would dare come near.
Yet whatever was in the grass was actually approaching them of its own accord, so its strength was definitely not weak.
Just as they expected, a five-meter-long giant snake burst out of the grass. Its entire body was pitch-black, a pair of wings grew from its back, and there was a white dot on its head. This serpent was called the Cold Radiance Snake.
It opened its bloody maw, spread its wings, and roared at the crowd. Some of the weaker disciples were stunned on the spot.
The crowd instantly boiled over.
"It’s actually a Cold Radiance Snake, and judging by its appearance it’s reached the Foundation Establishment Stage."
"Why would a Cold Radiance Snake appear on the outskirts of the Land of Extreme Cold?"
For a moment, many disciples completely lost their composure.
At this moment, the Dharma Gate Sect Leader spoke up, "This Cold Radiance Snake already has the cultivation of late Foundation Establishment. By rights, it should have transformed into human form, but for some reason it’s still maintaining its true body. Looks like something has gone wrong."
Seeing that these people didn’t take it seriously at all, the Cold Radiance Snake burned with fury, its massive body ramming toward the group.
Although this Cold Radiance Snake was nothing to be feared in and of itself, the disciples of the Pill Sect and Dharma Gate were both somewhat exhausted from their earlier clash, and could only keep dodging behind the disciples of the Ancient Abyss Sect.
The disciples of the Ancient Abyss Sect were not afraid either. Facing the gigantic Cold Radiance Snake, they spread out and encircled it, twenty disciples surrounding the serpent.
"Red Wind Palm!" freewebnøvel.com
One disciple took the lead and launched an attack. His left hand turned scarlet, and the wind from his palm condensed into a Wind Blade, striking straight toward the Cold Radiance Snake’s head.
However, the body of a late Foundation Establishment Cold Radiance Snake was as hard as solid stone; ordinary attacks couldn’t break through its defense at all. Instead, that disciple was swept flying.
Fortunately, that disciple’s strength wasn’t weak, and this blow didn’t cause him any serious harm.
Seeing this, the disciples of the Pill Sect and Dharma Gate all let out a breath of relief. The Ancient Abyss Sect still had a Saint Son. They’d heard that title more than a few times. This Cold Radiance Snake couldn’t even seriously injure an ordinary disciple; as long as the Saint Son made a move, then there was Wuyou.
The disciples of the Ancient Abyss Sect immediately swarmed forward like a hive of bees. In an instant, all kinds of Cultivation Techniques and treasured swords were unleashed in succession, all landing on the Cold Radiance Snake’s body.
Yet.
Although this Cold Radiance Snake wasn’t posing a lethal threat to these disciples, the body of a late Foundation Establishment demonic beast simply didn’t fear these techniques. It let those Cultivation Techniques and swords strike its body at will, constantly counterattacking against the disciples of the Ancient Abyss Sect. Before long, quite a few disciples had suffered minor injuries.
Seeing this, Yang Yan stepped forward of his own accord, staring straight at the five-meter-tall Cold Radiance Snake.
Being stared at by Yang Yan made the Cold Radiance Snake grow irritated. Its massive tail smashed down at Yang Yan. Yang Yan’s figure flickered, dodging the blow; the ground instantly sank into a large pit.
Yang Yan quickly closed in on the Cold Radiance Snake’s side, raising his fist to smash down toward the serpent’s back.
The disciples of the Pill Sect and Dharma Gate all showed looks of astonishment—Yang Yan was actually planning to rely on his fleshly body alone to fight the Cold Radiance Snake!
"Dong! Dong! Dong!"
Yang Yan threw three punches. The Cold Radiance Snake actually felt pain and retreated a few meters. The pain made it lose its composure, and it took the initiative to attack. Its enormous wings swept horizontally toward Yang Yan, but Yang Yan remained utterly fearless and met it head-on.
"Dong! Dong! Dong!"
Yang Yan struck three more punches. The Cold Radiance Snake cried out in pain, cold light flashing in its mouth. A beam of white light shot from its jaws. Not daring to be careless, Yang Yan dodged to the side. The white light struck a boulder, and the boulder was instantly frozen solid.
Yang Yan kicked off the ground with both feet, soaring five meters into the air. His twin fists gathered power, then hammered down on that giant head. The Cold Radiance Snake roared, opening its bloody maw to swallow Yang Yan whole. Yang Yan snorted coldly, twisting his body, one foot stepping on the Snake Head as his fist smashed toward the wings on its back.
Accompanied by the sound of bones snapping, the wings on its back were actually broken clean off by Yang Yan’s brute force!
Its body twisted as the Snake Head whipped back, slamming into Yang Yan. Yang Yan took the blow full-on and was knocked to the ground. The Cold Radiance Snake didn’t give him the slightest chance to catch his breath; its massive tail smashed down again. Yang Yan hurriedly dodged, and the tail once more struck only empty air.
Seeing this, the Cold Radiance Snake pulled away, widening the distance between itself and Yang Yan. It had already felt the strength of Yang Yan’s fleshly body. At first, when Yang Yan opted for close combat, it had only been scornful—just a human who had only just completed Foundation Establishment, actually daring to brawl with it, a late Foundation Establishment demonic beast.
A powerful body was the natural advantage of demonic beasts; it hadn’t taken Yang Yan seriously at all. Yet the reality was that the fleshly body it prided itself on was actually inferior to this human’s, and its own wings had even been brutishly broken by him.
At this moment, Yang Yan glanced at his own fists, seemingly dissatisfied with those previous blows. He then tore the clothes from his body, baring his upper torso. Bronze-colored skin was revealed. A few of the female disciples traveling with them shyly covered their eyes, yet still peeked through the gaps between their fingers.
Lin An gave a slight nod. Yang Yan was indeed a piece of fine jade waiting to be carved. He hadn’t neglected the tempering of his fleshly body just because he possessed a Sacred Body. No matter how many Magical Treasures one had, they were ultimately external things. Sooner or later there would come a time when Magical Treasures could no longer be used, and when that day came, one could only rely on one’s own body.
Yang Yan took the initiative, his legs driving hard against the ground. His whole person shot out like lightning. To the onlookers, all that could be seen was a blurred silhouette.
When he was three meters from the Cold Radiance Snake, Yang Yan raised his fist high. His fist, like a sandbag, carried a gale of force as it drove straight toward the Snake Head.
The Cold Radiance Snake naturally didn’t dare take it head-on. Its head jerked back as its tail stabbed toward Yang Yan’s right side.
The tip of its tail rang like a sharp sword, and for a moment it carried the momentum of piercing through all things under heaven!
Yang Yan twisted his body to the side. The tail tip sliced past his chest, cutting open a gash, then actually pierced straight through a boulder beside him.
Yang Yan glanced at the shattered stone on the ground, his expression tightening slightly. This Cold Radiance Snake truly had something off about it. With its strength, it should have been able to massacre those disciples who’d surrounded it earlier. Even if it couldn’t kill them all, seriously injuring them would have been child’s play. Yet just now it had pretended that it could only withstand their attacks by relying on its physical body. There was definitely a reason behind this.
But Yang Yan had no intention of wasting more time on it. Although there were many experts here, to prevent other unforeseen changes, he decided to end the battle quickly. Even in their earlier bout of close combat, he had yet to fully unleash the power of his fleshly body.
With that thought, he retreated a few steps, then began circulating his qi. He wanted to fully erupt with all the strength of his fleshly body. He wanted to see just how strong his body would be at full explosion!
The Cold Radiance Snake also sensed Yang Yan’s aura. Cold light flashed again in its mouth, slowly condensing into a glowing sphere between its jaws. This was the Cold Radiance Snake’s ultimate killing move.
Absolute Zero Seal.
This move could Ice Seal all things, leaving not a blade of grass alive for several kilometers around!
The two of them gathered their power, ready to strike!
