CHAPTER 825: CHAPTER 759: I’VE GOT EVERYTHING COVERED

The Black-Scaled Giant Python was in pursuit, its body even thicker than a house, coiling as if forming a massive mountain.

Two small antennae grew on its head, evidently signs of dragon transformation.

Along its path, trees fell completely crushed and collapsed.

A gigantic tongue darted out, wantonly flicking with a scarlet hue, a rancid wind swept over them, and its blood-red snake eyes gazed down at the group.

"The Black-Scaled Giant Python is catching up."

Among the six, a young maiden exclaimed with terror etched on her delicate face, showing extreme fear of the Black-Scaled Giant Python.

"Let’s go!"

The leading beautiful maiden spoke, sending a message to Ye Chen, urging them to follow her group to escape, and then find an opportunity to part ways along the route.

Yet Ye Chen smiled slightly, shaking his head towards them, while the Gray Dragon behind him remained immovable, expression unchanged.

For the six, the Black-Scaled Giant Python might be powerful and unbeatable, but to Ye Chen, it was insignificant and could just be killed if needed.

Hiss—

The Black-Scaled Giant Python locked onto Ye Chen and his companion, its thick tongue flicking directly at them, swiping past with a swish, ready to swallow the two into its mouth.

"Stupid pair, thinking themselves superior, not dodging at all."

Fleeing, a young elite silently cursed Ye Chen and his companion for their boldness, yet in his peripheral vision, he noticed the leading beautiful maiden abruptly turning, gracefully twisting mid-air, and shooting back.

Her delicate fingers quickly formed seals, divine power surging, a radiant rainbow instantly spanning the sky, colliding with the python’s long tongue, resounding with a clang as trees all around threatened to explode.

Yet under the recoil, the maiden staggered back two steps, stifled a groan, her exquisite face paling with a tinge of blood staining her red lips.

She was injured.

But taking this opportunity, the beautiful maiden lightly landed before Ye Chen and his companion, emanating a gentle glow that enveloped the two, a swift stamp of her lotus-like foot on the ground, she quickly turned and departed.

Ye Chen was slightly taken aback, evidently not expecting the maiden to return and rescue them; however, as he communicated with the Gray Dragon, his eternally indifferent eyes softened somewhat towards the maiden.

For the maiden, the Gray Dragon also held some affection, feeling wary of acting rashly, allowing the beautiful maiden to carry them.

The maiden’s speed was swift, catching up with the other five in no time, reuniting with them.

Seeing its near catch vanish, the Black-Scaled Giant Python roared with fury, chasing after them once more.

Watching the maiden cough blood injured, the other five looked at Ye Chen and his companion with rather unfriendly glares, a hint of anger visible.

All because of these two, who recklessly refused to flee, causing the beautiful maiden to spill blood, regarded as sinners in their eyes.

The Gray Dragon’s expression was somber, even within the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain it was a ruthless overlord, unafraid of even the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon, yielding only to Ye Chen and the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor.

Naturally, excluding the lords of the Demon God Ruins and the Old Knight.

Now, to be glared at by a few weak young Human Clan cultivators, how could it endure? Just as it was about to act, Ye Chen placed a hand on its shoulder, slightly shaking his head, signaling restraint.

"Miss Ke’er, are you okay?"

The other five, after quickly glancing at Ye Chen and his companion, turned their attention to the beautiful maiden, expressing concern, while a handsome elite quickly escaped, offering a precious Pill with passionate eyes, saying: "Miss Ke’er, this is a Fuqing Pill, excellent for healing, please take it."

"Young Master Xia, Ke’er appreciates your kindness, but it’s just a minor injury, nothing serious."

The maiden named Ke’er lightly shook her head, leaving the young elite somewhat disappointed.

Ye Chen and the Gray Dragon, enveloped in Ke’er’s glow, observed the expressions of the three young elites clearly.

No surprise, all three held an admiration for the maiden Ke’er, whereas the other charming maiden, though exquisite and beautiful, seemed like a flickering flame against the shine of the moon in comparison to Ke’er.

However, the two charming maidens were not envious.

"Hmph, if it hadn’t been for these two, Miss Ke’er wouldn’t have been injured."

The young elite who earlier offered the Pill spoke coldly, giving Ye Chen and his companion a frosty look, echoed by others, for if not for them, Miss Ke’er wouldn’t have been hurt.

The Gray Dragon wanted to rage, but Ye Chen merely shook his head, stopping him, and Miss Ke’er spoke up: "This is not to blame on the two gentlemen; it was our recklessness that led us to this path and caused trouble for you two. I hope you don’t take it to heart, I apologize on behalf of my friends."

Speaking, Miss Ke’er truly bowed slightly, apologizing, and Ye Chen vaguely observed the snow-white allure like mutton fat jade revealing an enticing abyss that lured relentless admiration in her finely developed frame.

Noticing Ye Chen’s gaze, a blush crept up the maiden’s face, astonishingly beautiful, while her limpid autumn water eyes held hints of shy annoyance.

Ye Chen coughed awkwardly twice, saying: "Miss Ke’er, you’re too kind. Thank you for your previous rescue, I am deeply grateful."

Seeing the master give thanks, the Gray Dragon had to step forward to express gratitude, although there was more disdain than anything for Miss Ke’er’s rescue, as there was no need for such salvation; annihilating the Black-Scaled Giant Python was simply an effortless task for him.

"There’s no need for such courtesy, you two. We were the ones who carelessly involved you," Miss Ke’er said with a soft smile, as radiant as a hundred flowers in bloom, so stunningly beautiful that it left everyone in a daze.

But at this moment, a terrifying roar came from behind, startling everyone, because the Black-Scaled Giant Python had caught up once again.

And its open mouth spewed a storm of flames, engulfing everything.

"You two should leave first. If there’s a chance, escape midway. The Black-Scaled Giant Python is only chasing us, not you, sirs."

Miss Ke’er directly used a soft force to quickly propel Ye Chen and the two of them away, turning to stand shoulder to shoulder with the other five.

The six young leaders stood side by side, each wielding a Daoist Soldier, attacking the Black-Scaled Giant Python, unleashing powerful Divine Skills, as radiant Divine Light bombarded the creature, exploding into dazzling flames.

"Six Divine Daoist Skill!"

One of the young talents, wearing a Purple Crown, softly called out, sealing and casting, his entire being splitting into six figures with a swish, each as real as the next, emitting strong Divine Power waves, each wielding a War Sword, launched powerful Sword Radiance towards the Black-Scaled Giant Python.

Ye Chen nodded slightly. Naturally, the so-called Six Divine Daoist Skill couldn’t split into six incarnations with the same combat power as the main body but had at least thirty percent of the main body’s strength, making it an extraordinary Divine Skill.

The six incarnations worked in conjunction with the main body, perfectly coordinating, continually casting and sealing, exerting power double that of the past.

"Void-breaking Seal!"

"Cave Void Palm!"

"Treasure Lotus Sword Technique!"

...

Six young Heavenly Prides of the Ancient Emperor Realm joined forces; though each was only at about the Divinity Transformation Fourth Layer Heaven level of cultivation, with Miss Ke’er among the strongest at the Sixth Layer Heaven, summoned one magnificent rainbow after another, crossing the Changkong, slicing through the void.

And with the six talents striking together, it brought forth a surge of elemental power, bombarding the Black-Scaled Giant Python, causing mountains and valleys to tremble in fear.

But facing the Black-Scaled Giant Python, a Seventh Layer Heaven demon beast and a mutant demon beast with Dragon Blood, with thick skin and flesh,

all sorts of attacks, despite looking incredibly fierce, blasting open several trees in the surrounding forest, causing landslides, hardly affected the Black-Scaled Giant Python, failing to shatter its hard black scales.

Roar——

The Black-Scaled Giant Python roared, its massive demon body suddenly soaring horizontally, its thick tail sweeping over, wind howling, shattering all the Divine Skills, leveling everything in its path.

The six young leaders’ expressions slightly changed as they hurriedly moved to defend.

Puff puff puff——

Six figures were sent flying on the spot, each with a pale face, blood staining their lips, tumbling several times in the void before stabilizing.

The next moment, the Black-Scaled Giant Python opened its mouth and unleashed Dragon Breath, igniting upon meeting air, flaming and transforming into a sky full of fiery sparks that continually blossomed and burned in the void, rising fiercely, scorching the Heavenly Dome.

Forests caught in the firelight blazed, illuminating half the sky.

The six young leaders were once again sent flying, crashing to the ground, wounded, some burned, coughing up large mouthfuls of blood, utterly no match for the Black-Scaled Giant Python.

Hiss——

Watching helplessly as the Black-Scaled Giant Python opened its bloody maw to devour them, their faces turned ghastly with despair, reluctantly closing their eyes, waiting for the arrival of death.

Is this how it ends?

Miss Ke’er’s delicate face turned a fearful pale, tightly clenching her little fists, yet feeling helpless.

Tears fell silently from her eyes.

"I’m sorry, everyone, it’s my fault."

At this point, is there any use in apologizing?

Now, the other five were more resentful towards Ye Chen and the Gray Dragon. If not for their sudden appearance and delay, how would they have ended up in this situation?

Swish——

Suddenly, a figure appeared silently before the six, revealed to be Ye Chen, who had been sent away yet returned, standing ahead of everyone, startling them.

Why did he come back?

Ye Chen turned to her with a gentle smile, his teeth shining brilliantly, "Don’t worry, I’ve got this!"
