Chapter 892: Chapter 892

The flickering spirit light intermittently appeared, at times hidden, then emerging once more.

It was like the giant snake’s intestines, which were almost a straight line with little curvature, otherwise, Chen Hai, who was inside the giant snake’s intestines, would hardly be able to detect the true presence of this spirit light.

In terms of defense, the giant snake’s scales were extremely tough.

If he were to fight it within the chaos, even with the Golden Jiao Scissors in hand, Chen Hai would have no confidence in cutting through that snake scale’s defense and causing significant harm.

Being within the giant snake’s belly, as long as he could withstand the corrosion of the gastric juices, dealing with the giant snake becomes much easier.

Of course, this pertains to Chen Hai.

To replace him with someone else, even a Quasi-Saint strong like Li Xuanfeng, after being swallowed into the giant snake’s belly, would likely be completely corroded by the gastric juices in a matter of moments.

After all, the top-grade acquired spiritual treasure, the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower, was hailed as the foremost defensive treasure between heaven and earth, even in ancient times.

Now Chen Hai, having stepped into the late period of the Daluo Golden Immortal, can already exert over eighty percent of the power of this supreme treasure.

At its true peak, it could withstand Saint-level attacks for a time.

With the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower capable of exerting over eighty percent of its power as protection, no matter how strong the corrosive force within the giant snake’s gastric juices, it couldn’t harm a hair on Chen Hai. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽

It was the occasional flicker of spirit light within the snake’s intestines, capturing Chen Hai’s attention, otherwise, he would have already taken action without a second thought.

Steadying himself, Chen Hai cautiously and slowly advanced step by step.

Each obstacle before him was swallowed entirely by the power of gluttony into human faces.

Though his pace was somewhat slow, after a dozen breaths, he had reached the vicinity of that dim gray spirit light.

It was a gray stone the size of an adult’s head. Besides occasionally flashing with spirit light, strands of chaotic aura also wafted on its surface.

The gastric juices within the belly of a quasi-saint level chaotic giant snake were unbelievably corrosive. Not to mention a stone, even a top-grade immortal artifact falling into its stomach could be digested cleanly in an instant.

Had it not been for the protection of the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower, Chen Hai, who had been swallowed by the snake, would likely have already turned into a mush of flesh by now, even if not fully digested yet.

This gray stone before him, who knows how many years it had remained in the snake’s belly, yet it remained intact, which already attested to its extraordinariness.

"A chaotic spiritual treasure, and of middle grade?"

After observing the gray stone for a while and circling it.

Upon ensuring that he sensed no threat from the object, Chen Hai tentatively reached out a hand to grab the stone.

At the moment of genuine contact with this item, his eyes brightened with joy filling his heart.

"Mirror flowers, water moon, all void. This life is but a floating dream. Is this treasure called the Mirror Moon Divine Stone?" Though it was the first time he had encountered this gray stone, relevant wonders intuitively surfaced in Chen Hai’s mind.

Turning the item over and over, examining it carefully.

When he was about to calm down and ponder the Mirror Moon Divine Stone, he felt the chaotic giant snake seemed to go mad, its body trembling violently, nearly unsettling the usually steady Chen Hai, causing him almost to fall headlong.

"It seems inappropriate to study this Mirror Moon Divine Stone here!"

"Since it fell into my hands, it must be destined to be mine. When I find some free time, it’s not too late to craftily study this thing!"

"In that case, I should break open the snake’s stomach and squeeze out from within it first!"

Cautiously, Chen Hai put away the Mirror Moon Divine Stone.

Then, with a flip of his hand, the acquired offensive supreme treasure, the Golden Jiao Scissors, appeared in his hand.

Holding the half-man-high giant scissors, Chen Hai directly cut towards the mucus-covered intestinal wall beside him.

Outside, within the chaos.

Li Xuanfeng, Zi Feng, and others were still fiercely battling the chaotic giant snake.

As the main attacker, Li Xuanfeng, was covered in blood, his whole person turned into a human blood figure.

The attack of a sword cultivator is indeed very powerful, but they wield high offence and low defense, being generally poor in defense.

On the other side, the chaotic giant snake not only has extraordinary defense but also incredibly strong life force.

On its massive snake body, many places already had broken snake scales, with no fewer than hundreds of gashes inflicted by Li Xuanfeng.

Such wounds would leave an average Quasi-Saint, if not dead, certainly on the brink of death, unable to mount any meaningful counterattack.

Yet to a chaotic giant snake stretching hundreds of feet long, these injuries only make it more ferocious and hardly count as anything!

With Li Xuanfeng’s powerful attack, even cutting the giant snake hundreds of times, it still remains energetic and lively, but its attack landing on Li Xuanfeng...

Merely brushed by the snake’s tail once, Li Xuanfeng already had one foot in the grave, transforming directly to his current state.

"Taoist Friend Li, this chaotic giant snake is overly troublesome. Even with our combined efforts, the chance of killing it is practically none."

"The ancients have a saying, ’As long as there are green hills, there is no fear of running out of firewood to burn.’"

"Persisting in this battle with virtually no chance of victory holds no meaning!"

"While there’s still some strength left, we should leave promptly. If delayed any further, we might all lose our lives here!"

It was the Quasi-Saint Zi Feng who spoke, earnestly trying to persuade.

Not only him, but Deng Chong and the others were all tattered and severely injured.

As the ones assisting Li Xuanfeng’s attack, they ended up in this sorry state, and that’s only due to the peripheral impact of the giant snake’s attacks.

If they were to face the giant snake head-on, just one hit from it could very well knock them down.

"As a pure sword cultivator, on the battlefield, I, Li, never retreat."

"I can feel that the aura on this beast has significantly waned."

"If my next sword still cannot heavily wound it, then we’ll consider retreating!"

Despite his severe injuries, Li Xuanfeng showed no trace of discouragement, instead, his battle spirit surged immensely.

Gazing fixedly at the nearby chaotic giant snake, he held the seemingly ordinary three-foot-long sword, chanting: "I have a sword, that can move mountains, fill seas, open heavens, cleave the earth, vanquish demons, and slay saints..."
