CHAPTER 479: CHAPTER 265: OBTAINING ANOTHER SNAKE SPIRIT FRUIT, ADVANCEMENT!

"Yes!!"

In mid-air, dozens of black-brown flying eagles appeared, hovering under the blue sky.

Following Chen Feng’s command, the elite warriors, barely suppressing their anger, drew their bows and arrows, and continuously fired.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!

The cold sound suddenly resounded, dozens of arrows shot out, then split into hundreds, transforming into a rain of arrows, covering the heavens.

The strong wind blew, the cries of eagles echoed.

It was sympathy for their human kin’s plight and deep hatred for the Snake-man tribe.

Thud thud thud!!

The sound of flesh being pierced rang out repeatedly.

Blood splattered, the Snake-man sentries on the watchtower had their armor penetrated, piercing through the vital spot in their chest.

Bang!!

Breaking the wooden railings, corpses fell and collapsed onto the ground.

Among the grassland tents and wooden houses, the Snake-man warriors patrolling with spears, wearing beast-skin cloaks or grey iron armor, looked up in shock and anger, and were then pierced through the forehead by the dense rain of arrows, dying on the spot.

"Enemy attack!"

"It’s the Holy City enemies!!"

Within the Snake-man Tribe, Fourth-Order experts rushed out of the wooden house courtyard, shouting angrily, trying to prevent the Snake-men from resisting.

But, the next second.

Boom!!

A majestic silver light fell to the earth, the Sword Qi from a broadsword swept through everything.

The buildings were split in two, the ground around them caved into deep pits.

The Fourth-Order Snake-man who had shouted earlier widened his eyes in disbelief, clearly seeing his body, severed at the waist, still standing rigidly.

All the Snake-men within tens of meters exploded simultaneously, a storm of blood rain falling. Oron, clad in silver armor, raised cold eyes, and the next moment charged forward, heading straight for the heart of the Snake-man Tribe.

Boom!!

A massive sound akin to an earthquake, wooden houses collapsed, round tents were overturned and exploded.

Every Snake-man across the grassland was terrified and shocked, continuous angry shouts.

Some resisted, some struggled.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!!

Without a word wasted, a dozen elite warriors from the Holy City swooped down, wielding long spears, single-handedly knocking away several Third-order Snake-men.

Further arrows continued to blossom in midair, providing support, guarding the surroundings, preventing ambushes.

With such tacit cooperation, the Holy City elites were unstoppable, and in an instant, they wiped out many Snake-man guards.

"Despicable low-class beings!!"

"You people of the Holy City, shall all die miserably!"

An ancient roar echoed, a dark light burst through the air, appearing from the tribe’s center, heading straight for the flying eagle group in the sky.

It touched the threshold of Fifth Rank, its power formidable.

With a glance, Chen Feng didn’t act.

Because.

Buzz!!

Green light expanded, blocking everything.

The Fifth-Order expert from the Thorny Army stood beside him, intercepting the strike.

The dot of dark light extinguished, the elderly Snake-man below filled with shock and anger.

Before he could continue, he saw Oron on the ground, rushing in like a battle tank, with a silver helmet atop his head, stomping the earth, wielding his sword, slashing out a Sword Qi that shook the heavens and earth.

Swish!!!

The Snake-man Great Elder, barely touching the Fifth Rank threshold, was sliced in two, his gray-scaled snake head wide-eyed, rolling several times on the ground.

The wide Sword Qi, over a dozen meters large, like a crescent moon, swept through everything, wooden houses and round tents exploded one after another, the grassland’s surface crisscrossed with ravines, most of the greenery faded away.

Broken snake scales and blood covered the ground, kneeling human slaves stood stiffly, their expressions dazed, almost thinking they were hallucinating.

"False, can’t be real?"

Someone spoke tremblingly, not yet recovered.

Such powerful and violent Snake-men, defeated so easily?

Was it a hallucination?

"No!"

"It’s the Holy City! It’s truly the legendary people of the Holy City!"

"They’ve come to rescue us!"

The previously defiant young man shouted loudly, his face flushed with excitement.

The woman who had fainted was finally supported and awakened, and the child in her arms followed by raising its head to gaze, instinctively standing tall.

More and more silhouettes followed, paths of light in their eyes appearing, replacing the previous numbness and dead silence.

Until the very end.

A trace of White Gray grazed past them, Chen Feng had already seen the core area enveloped by the green Barrier.

A massive black tree, needing three to five people to embrace its trunk, grew inside, its roots twisted like a dragon snake, flecked with abundant branches and leaves, resembling snake patterns.

Most of the fruits had long been picked and offered to the Snake God Temple.

Yet, even so, there were still three red fruits hanging, like small curled snakes hidden in the foliage crevices.

"Quick, run!"

"No!!"

The Snake-man guards around the Barrier were exceptionally terrified, no longer caring to guard the tree, fleeing continuously.

Silver-armored warriors pursued them with swords, while other warriors among the flying eagle group landed and spread, forming formations, surrounding them from all directions.

Until the very end, only Chen Feng remained, overlooking from midair.

The green Barrier seemed indestructible, with a bluish shell gradually spreading, covering most of his hand.

Swoosh!!

The amassed black light pierced through everything, the green Barrier exploded.

Dots of spiritual light scattered in all directions, the White Gray stone statue expanded in size, swooping around.

When it appeared again, ascending to midair, Chen Feng already held three Snake Spirit Fruits.

[You’ve discovered a Secret Realm spiritual item — Snake Spirit Fruit!]

[..... Consumers must use a ritual to remove the Snake Spirit Essence within, or varying degrees of snake-like mutations will occur!]

[Hint: You can choose to convert it into pure energy and integrate it into yourself, with no side effects, reducing the effect by one-third!]

"Transform, absorb."

The moment the panel hint appeared, Chen Feng made his decision without hesitation.

Buzz!

In an instant, the three fist-sized Snake Spirit Fruits quickly melted, entering his body through his pores like energy mist.
