Chapter 118 Regret
This was the first time Song Qiao had ever seen Su Luo use the Crimson Flame Spear, and he was immediately shocked by its powerful firepower.
What kind of magical artifact is that?! It's incredibly powerful!
Each time, a small fireball would appear, then grow into a large fireball, smashing into the monster and exploding. Moreover, the contents of that magical artifact seemed inexhaustible, constantly firing fireballs!
Although Feng Xiyue had already witnessed the power of the Crimson Flame Spear, she still couldn't help but be amazed when she saw it again.
That gun is amazing!
Chu Wenqing was extremely envious, thinking that he would also like to borrow Su Luo's gun to show off in the future!
Seeing that the Hidden Yin Serpent was being suppressed by Su Luo's firepower, its skin torn and bleeding as it rolled around, hiding and howling incessantly, the two quickly took out the explosive talismans that Su Luo had given them and threw them at the Hidden Yin Serpent.
What a joke! Such a treacherous and terrifying enemy must be eliminated as soon as possible! Don't give it even a moment to breathe!
The Hidden Serpent was trapped in the formation, making close-range attacks inconvenient. Fortunately, Su Luo gave it many talismans, which allowed it to attack from a distance.
Feng Xiyue noticed out of the corner of her eye that Song Qiao was still in a daze, and quickly called out, "Junior Brother Song, come and help!"
"Ah, yes, yes..."
Song Qiao snapped out of his daze and hurriedly responded, joining them in taking out talismans and throwing them at the Hidden Yin Snake.
If there were other people present, they would probably be shocked to the point of jaw dropping, and then heartbroken to the point of being unable to breathe, after all, the huge amount of talismans that were scattered were extremely valuable!
"Ouch! It hurts! It hurts so much!!"
The Hidden Serpent struggled in agony, screaming shrilly, but unable to escape, it was blasted to pieces, its body covered in blood and charred black, with large chunks of scale falling off.
It hurts so much!
Having lived for 1,500 years, it had never been in such pain!
The Hidden Yin Serpent's wounds hadn't fully healed to begin with, and now it's injured like this again. Its demonic aura keeps emanating from the wounds, and if this continues, its cultivation level will drop!
At this moment, the Hidden Serpent began to regret its actions.
Regret! It shouldn't have played hide-and-seek in the first place; then it wouldn't have been so unlucky as to run into that bastard Chu Wenqing! Because it wanted revenge on that brat, now it's trapped in the formation, suffering a fate worse than death!!
Su Luo stopped firing when the Crimson Flame Spear could no longer fire fireballs, estimating that the Hidden Yin Serpent was still alive. She then made a hand gesture, and the other three stopped as well.
The formation was filled with dust and smoke. Only after the smoke from the explosion dissipated could the group see the terrible state of the Hidden Yin Serpent.
At this moment, it was curled up on the ground, covered in wounds. Its tail, with almost all its scales gone, was used to protect its head. The rest of its body was covered with deep wounds that exposed the bone. The ground was soaked with blood, which was glaringly red.
Su Luo and the others showed no pity for the Hidden Yin Serpent.
Although they were the ones who trespassed into the secret realm and disturbed the lives of these demonic beasts, the Hidden Yin Serpent was not innocent. The biggest difference between it and other demonic beasts was that it actually ate people! If this vicious and vengeful demonic beast was not eradicated, they would eventually be ambushed and killed by it!
Sensing that the attack had stopped, the Hidden Serpent trembled and took a deep breath. It still dared not peek its head out from under its tail, and only weakly begged for mercy.
"Please...don't kill me...I...I can tell you how to leave Cloud Mist Valley...Besides, I know information about the other four areas, I'm very useful..."
The Hidden Yin Serpent knew that the situation was different now. It was too badly injured and could drop a rank at any moment. If these cultivators continued their attack, it would surely die today!
How could it willingly die here?!
The only option now is to offer these people what they need to lure them away and keep them occupied, while I take advantage of the fog to recover a little and try to survive!
Upon hearing this, Su Luo raised an eyebrow slightly.
Her original intention was to severely injure the Hidden Yin Serpent and force it to reveal the location of the teleportation array, but she didn't expect this unexpected surprise.
Feng Xiyue and the other two were also moved.
They were already somewhat worried about how to deal with the remaining four areas after leaving Cloud Mist Valley. If the information about Hidden Serpent was true, then with that information, their journey would be much smoother!
But asking them to release the Hidden Serpent is probably not an option; after all, trying to negotiate with a tiger for its skin is far too dangerous...
Thinking of this, the three of them looked at Su Luo in unison, wanting to ask her what she planned to do, but they saw that the girl's expression remained unchanged, as if she was unmoved.
"That's it? What makes you think we'd spare your life with just this little bit of information?"
"what?"
Originally, Hidden Serpent noticed a hint of interest on the faces of three of the four people and thought that the matter was a sure thing, but he did not expect that the other person would say such a thing.
The Hidden Serpent was momentarily stunned.
Su Luo then took the opportunity to wink at the three of them.
The three of them rolled their eyes and instantly realized that Su Luo probably had other plans. So they stopped rushing and just stood quietly to the side with straight faces, watching Su Luo make her move.
After a while, the Hidden Serpent came to its senses and glanced at the four people. Seeing that they were not in a hurry, it thought they did not understand the value of the information. It gritted its teeth and spoke again, unwilling to give up.
"The other four areas are all very dangerous... Knowing that information would only benefit you, not harm you..."
"Hmm, you have a point."
Su Luo nodded seriously, but before the Hidden Yin Serpent could show any joy, she added, "However, I have a talisman called the Mind-Seeing Talisman. This talisman functions like a high-level soul-searching technique. Through this talisman, I can directly view your memories. Even if you don't say anything, I can still know all the information. So, what you just said is useless..."
"What……"
Su Luo's words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving the Hidden Yin Snake completely dumbfounded.
It's only been a little over a thousand years since it went out, so why has everything changed?! It's one thing to add decimals when counting in hide-and-seek, but now there are even advanced talismans like the Soul-Searching Technique?!
Not only was the Hidden Yin Snake dumbfounded, but Feng Xiyue and the others were also shocked.
That Soul Searching Technique is a spell that only Nascent Soul cultivators can use! Su Luo actually has a talisman with the same function as the Soul Searching Technique! That's incredibly amazing!
Sensing the admiring looks from Chu Wenqing and the other two, Su Luo remained expressionless. She directly pinched a talisman and aimed it at the Hidden Yin Serpent, saying, "Now I can search your memories, but once I'm done, you'll be of no use to me anymore. At that time..."
The Hidden Serpent felt a chill run down its spine. Hearing Su Luo say this, it panicked and hurriedly spoke up, revealing its trump card to negotiate.
"Wait! I have a use for it... I have many more treasures... many, many more, you will need them!"
Upon hearing about the treasure, Chu Wenqing immediately perked up, "What treasure? Where is it? How much is there?"
“In my… cave, there are half a cave of treasures, and many valuable spiritual plants around it… I know you’re going to other areas, and those spiritual plants and treasures will be very helpful for your next mission… As long as you don’t kill me, spare my life, they’re all yours…”
Upon hearing this, their eyes lit up even more, but since Su Luo didn't speak, they held back for the time being.
What's the rush? With Su Luo around, they won't suffer any losses!
Su Luo retorted, "How do I know if you're lying to us?"
"If you don't believe me, you can... check my memories. Tomorrow morning, I'll take you to the cave... take whatever you want... take everything, as long as you don't kill me..."
As it spoke, the Hidden Serpent lowered its head in submission, but a glint of malice flashed in its dark eyes.
If it can just hold out until tomorrow morning, its injuries will improve after absorbing the fog. Then, it can take advantage of the opportunity to escape while leading these people to the cave! It knows this place too well; these people will definitely not be able to catch it!
