This humble Taoist priest, Qianhe, begins his quest for immortality by slaying demons and monsters.

Chapter 47 The Silver-Armored Corpse King Arrives, Severely Injuring the Serpent General

Flames filled the valley.

The red-banded snake kept ramming its tens of meters long body against the invisible barrier.

With each impact, the ground trembled slightly, but no matter how hard the Crimson Serpent tried to use its supernatural powers, it was all in vain.

Time passed slowly, and the Crimson Serpent General's movements became slower and slower...

Once again transformed into a half-human, half-demon form, the Crimson Serpent General had lost its initial domineering aura.

None of them were fools; the opponent could block their demon general's divine might simply by standing in place with a memorial tablet.

Clearly, he is no ordinary person; he is probably from one of the top Taoist sects.

Thinking of this, the red-striped snake gradually lost the anger in its eyes, which was replaced by hesitation and struggle.

If they can't get a handle on their opponent for the time being, continuing the stalemate could very well lead to them waiting for their sect elders.

Reason told Red Serpent General that it was time to give up, but looking at the tragic deaths of his two sons, Red Serpent General was in unbearable pain and wished he could devour Zhong Bai and Si Mu alive.

Compared to the Red Serpent General's current dilemma and hesitation, Zhong Bai, hiding in the invisible barrier, felt much more at ease, having already done almost everything he could.

If this is fate, and Zhong Bai is destined to perish here before he can grow up, then Zhong Bai can only say that he has no regrets about his decision, and it is as it should be.

What's more...

After calming down, Zhong Bai was still more shocked by the numbers on the demon-slaying panel in front of him.

[Slay two Crimson Serpent Demons (late-stage demon soldiers) to obtain 1600 Demon Extermination Points]

[Slay 5 early-stage Crimson Serpent Demons to obtain 1000 Demon Extermination Points]

[Slay 8 low-level demons to gain 400 Demon Extermination Points]

Current Demon Extermination Points: 3000

These are almost all the results of those two Heavenly Thunder Jade Talismans, totaling three thousand Demon Exorcism Points.

If Zhong Bai can return to Jiuquan Town alive, it's hard to imagine how far his cultivation level will improve!
...................................................

The hesitation lasted only a moment. Seeing that the invisible barrier still showed no sign of being broken, the Crimson Serpent General finally decided to give up.

Where there is life, there is hope.

It's just that two sons died; even if all three sons died, it wouldn't be as important as saving my own life.

Thinking of this, the Crimson Serpent no longer hesitated. Its body transformed into a demonic form tens of meters long, and it was about to flee towards the deep mountains outside the valley.

Just then, a silver streak of light shot rapidly through the void!
Before the silver light even touched the Crimson Serpent General, he could already sense the heavy aura of death beneath it.

"Silver-Armored Corpse King!"

Without a moment to think, almost instinctively, the Crimson Serpent met the oncoming Silver-Armored Corpse King head-on with a single blow.

The thick snake tail, covered in flames and hard scales, lashed out heavily towards the silver-armored corpse king!

The Silver-Armored Corpse King did not dodge either, its body slamming heavily into the tail of the Long-Scaled Serpent General like a cannonball.

A sonic boom echoed in the air!
The long-scaled serpent felt as if its tail had hit a mountain, and was easily blasted away, while the silver-armored corpse king couldn't even control its body and crashed heavily into the depths of the earth.

Inside a ten-meter-deep pit, the Silver-Armored Corpse King finally revealed its true form. Standing three meters tall, its silver corpse aura made even the Long-Scaled Serpent General's scalp tingle.

"damn it……!"

Even a fool would understand that this was reinforcements from the sects behind those two Taoist priests. A heavy, mournful roar pulled the long-scaled serpent back to reality. The enemy had arrived; there was no escaping it. The silver-armored corpse king before him was already a headache, and what else…

Knowing that only by fighting desperately could they have a chance of survival, the Crimson Serpent suddenly spewed out a sky full of flames, the scorching heat even distorting the air.

Flames enveloped the silver-armored corpse king, continuously eroding its corpse aura, while the long-scaled snake suddenly shed a fang from its mouth!
The gleaming fangs were aimed at the silver-armored corpse king, which was being scorched by flames. Just as he was about to pierce the silver-armored corpse king with his fangs, a whisk rushed towards him from the void.

Before they could even pay attention to the silver-armored corpse king, the long-scaled serpent general shot out his fangs as the whisk arrived, striking the whisk. The whisk receded, and his fangs lost some of their cold gleam.

"Tsk tsk tsk, and it's a Crimson Chained Serpent at the mid-stage of a Demon General..."

You could have stayed here peacefully, but you insisted on killing my disciple, so you can't be allowed to live!

The person who came was none other than the Immortal of Longevity!

Below, within the invisible barrier, when Si Mu saw the arrival of the Silver-Armored Corpse King, he knew that his master had arrived. After all, the Silver-Armored Corpse King was his master's natal corpse, a peak Silver-Armored Corpse King, and half a step into the Golden-Armored Corpse King realm!

In ordinary places, where would you easily meet someone like this?
"Master, your disciple is suffering!"

A Crimson Serpent Demon, a late-stage demon soldier, is lurking on this official road, devouring passersby. This disciple had no other choice but to ask Junior Brother Qianhe to come here to exorcise the demon.

I never imagined... I never imagined there was a powerful demon general hiding there! I almost couldn't face my master again!

Si Mu had recovered some of his internal energy, so his voice was exceptionally loud.

The Immortal Changsheng, who was suspended in the void above the whisk, felt his anger rising the more he listened.

He said that while Si Mu might be a bit unreliable, one shouldn't recklessly provoke a demon general.

So this red-banded snake in front of us is the sixth one!
The Scaled Serpent General wished he could kill Four Eyes and cover his mouth, but facing the Immortal Changsheng in front of him and the Silver-Armored Corpse King behind him, he knew that he would probably have a hard time surviving today...

"How dare you, a mere snake, harm my disciple! Today, I will use the supernatural powers of Maoshan to kill you!"

Upon hearing the name Maoshan, the Red Serpent General felt as if the sky had fallen, realizing that he had provoked Maoshan.

"Fellow Daoist...I am not..."

Before the Crimson Serpent General could say another word, the Silver Armored Corpse King behind him, which had been scorched by flames, suddenly soared into the sky and headed straight for his vital point!

The immortal Changsheng in front was equally remarkable, and a jade hairpin he had just taken off his headdress was now emitting bursts of white light.

"go with!"

As the Immortal of Longevity finished speaking, the jade hairpin in his hand grew larger in the wind, transforming into several meters in a short time. It created a sonic boom in the air and headed straight for the Long-Scaled Serpent General...

With both sides facing a situation of killing without hesitation, the long-scaled serpent brought the entire demon realm to its knees.

The fangs, which had been somewhat dimmed, shot straight at the silver-armored corpse king behind him, while another fang fell out of its mouth and flew into the jade hairpin in front of it!

With a crack, the fangs shattered, while the jade hairpin remained unharmed, its momentum only slightly weakened. The silver-armored corpse king behind it also punched the broken fangs and flew towards him.

Suddenly, just as the long-scaled serpent thought he was about to perish, the jade hairpin flying towards him abruptly stopped, leaving only the silver-armored corpse king behind him crashing into his body. In an instant, the earth was stained crimson with blood.

"I almost forgot, Senior Brother Qian Yuan is coming soon. This place is not only for my disciples."

"If I don't let Senior Brother Qian Yuan vent his anger, I, this old Daoist, can't withstand his wrath..."

Changsheng Zhenren was somewhat relieved. If he had killed the snake demon in one fell swoop, what would have happened to his senior brother Qianyuan who rushed over?
Luckily, I was quick enough to take the jade hairpin back.

Thinking of this, he looked at the Long-Scaled Serpent General, who had been severely injured by the Silver-Armored Corpse King, and his eyes held not only a hint of killing intent but also sympathy.

Senior Brother Qian Yuan's methods are far, far more ruthless than his...
