The extraordinary journey begins with the Ouroboros Stele.

Chapter 117 Just kill them all

Looking at the twisted black blood at his feet, Lin Ye casually threw down the two pieces of snake body he was holding.

With a stomp of his foot, the air surged and coalesced, enveloping the snake's body and black blood within, producing a sickeningly painful sound of flesh and bone being crushed.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the shockwave burst open into a cloud of black blood mist, and the snake's body vanished without a trace.

After doing all this, he looked at the Nuo Snake Cult members who had been kicked away.

As I slowly approached and bent down slightly, the python's head began to slowly revert to a human form, resembling a human face yet not quite, creating a strong uncanny valley effect.

"A tenacious life."

Lin Ye sighed, and the terrifying snake stared at him with a pair of yellow vertical pupils, its eyes filled with resentment.

"Bang!"

Lin Ye kicked it, popping out both of its eyes, which splattered with pale yellow, transparent slime.

"hiss--!

The Nuo Snake Cultists held their faces, which had not yet fully transformed into human faces, and emitted mournful cries like pythons.

Suddenly, it raised its head, its eyes now empty, yet seemingly staring intently at the forest.

With its long, thin forked tongue flicking in and out, it could actually speak human language.

"You will die! You will definitely die!"

"You dare obstruct the divine ritual? The cult will not let you get away with this! Big Brother will not let you get away with this! Hahahaha!"

"Die! Die! Die!"

"boom--!"

The shockwave crushed down, and the snake-like head of the Nuo cultist exploded.

Lin Ye rubbed the sole of his shoe against it, his gaze indifferent.

"That sounds awful."

He bent down, tore open the other man's robe, and took the Heavenly Mandate.

At the same time, a green object rolled out, like several pipes tied together, making a dripping sound.

The moment Jiang Muyu saw the green object behind her, her pupils shrank to pinpoints.

"Run! Class F weapon! Fixed cluster bomb!"

"Beep! Beep beep! Beep beep beep beep..."

Before Lin Ye could finish listening to Jiang Muyu's words, the beeping sound in his ears suddenly accelerated.

In an instant, an extreme sense of threat enveloped him.

Without any hesitation, he turned and rushed towards Jiang Muyu.

"boom!"

With a single punch, the shockwave compressed the air, sending the staff members present flying.

He grabbed Jiang Muyu and lunged forward at the last possible moment.

"Boom!"

Intense flames exploded, accompanied by a sonic boom that caused excruciating eardrum pain.

The terrifying explosive force was compressed by the four solid walls and surged towards the roof, tearing open a large hole.

"Thump!"

"Rustle~ rustle~"

Gravel and dust fell from the ceiling.

"Wow!"

Lin Ye coughed up a mouthful of blood, feeling as if his internal organs had shifted, and his whole body felt like it had been run over by a heavy truck.

Jiang Muyu, who was lying on the ground, looked anxious. She hurriedly got up and helped Lin Ye sit down.

Are you alright?

She saw it clearly just now: at the last moment, Lin Ye unleashed his ultimate shockwave, but it only lasted for less than half a second before being torn apart by the shockwave.

If the explosion hadn't ended in an instant, she and Lin Ye would both have died!

Lin Ye shook his head, glanced at the mercenary who was twisted and deformed on the ground, and at the several staff members on the ground in the distance whose fates were unknown.

"Let's save them first."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Muyu gradually calmed down and made a phone call.

After arranging everything, she pressed the remote control to open the door, and the sunlight fell on the pile of corpses next to the door.

"The Nuo Snake Cult... No matter who you are! I will make you pay the price!"

After saying that, she looked at Lin Ye and said, "Little brother, I have arranged for a private doctor to give you a comprehensive examination later."

"Don't worry, I will definitely find the mastermind behind these guys! Even if it means mobilizing the entire family's resources!"

Lin Ye nodded. "I'm tired. I'll take a nap first."

"What did you say?! Nothing?! You vomited blood and you're okay?!"

In the high-tech medical room, Jiang Muyu frowned as she looked at her private doctor in a white coat.

The private doctor shrugged. "That's the result of the examination. You'll recover after a period of rest and recuperation."

Actually, he didn't quite understand why the young lady would send such a strong guy over out of the blue.

There are indeed some injuries, but in a sense, these injuries can actually be described as promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.

Jiang Muyu remained silent for a while, and finally nodded slowly.

Her private doctor was a family-employed physician, so naturally he wouldn't lie to her, and his skills were absolutely reliable.

"I see."

After saying that, she got up and left, going to a lounge.

On the hospital bed, Lin Ye leaned against the bedside table, stroking the bronze scepter in his hand.

"Little brother, you're awake? How are you feeling? The test results said there's nothing wrong. It might be that the equipment isn't good enough. I'll arrange for you to go to Tieqin for another check-up tonight."

Jiang Muyu spoke with concern. If she had only had a slight liking for Lin Ye in the past, she now truly regarded him as a younger brother.

Lin Ye shook his head. "I'm fine. I don't need to go to Tieqin."

Jiang Muyu frowned slightly. "Listen to me, this is not a game!"

Lin Ye almost laughed when he heard this. He put down the Heavenly Staff in his hand and looked at Jiang Muyu.

"Dear sister, I've already practiced the vibration technique to perfection. How could I not even feel if there's something wrong with my own body?"

It was really painful when I was hit, but I didn't actually suffer any real damage.

There's no other reason than that his physique is too strong.

It wasn't like we were hit head-on by an F-class weapon; it was just the aftershock. Being stunned was already a favor to the weapon.

Jiang Muyu was stunned for a moment before realizing that even at the level of cultivating to the point of perfection, her younger brother's strength was absolutely top-tier, far exceeding that of ordinary people.

After thinking for a moment, she nodded. "Alright then, just let me know if you need anything."

After she finished speaking, she saw the Heavenly Mandate Staff beside Lin Ye.

"If you like it, you can keep it for now. Anyway, the exhibition can't be held for the time being. Give it to me after we get the other Celestial Staff from the tomb."

Lin Ye nodded. "Okay, so when are we going down into the tomb?"

He was already getting impatient. The image of this Heavenly Staff was incomplete; the rest should be on another Heavenly Staff.

Even if it's not as good as this one, it should at least have 1 potential point, right?

That's already very good.

Jiang Muyu hesitated upon hearing this, looking at Lin Ye.

"Little brother, maybe you shouldn't go. It's really dangerous down there."

"Just focus on recovering during this time. When you get back, I promise you I'll let you take a look at that scepter, okay?"

Lin Ye pondered for a moment, "Let's go together. I've never been down into a large tomb before."

"Furthermore, Sister Jiang, in your tomb-raiding team, is there anyone stronger than me?"

Jiang Muyu was speechless for a moment after hearing Lin Ye's words, and sighed helplessly.

"Alright then, but you'll have to follow our instructions, since we're the professionals."

"However, this only applies when there is no danger. If danger arises, you must prioritize your own safety."

"You have to promise me this, or there's nothing to talk about."

Lin Ye looked at Jiang Muyu, who had a firm attitude, and said, "Fine, I agree."

Jiang Muyu felt slightly relieved.

"Alright, the tomb raiding will take place in the middle of next month. I have to go back to Tieqin right away, so I won't stay any longer. If you have any questions, just ask Dr. Zhao."

After she left, Lin Ye picked up the scepter, thought for a moment, and still decided not to consume the lingering image of her spirit.

There's so much high technology here, there's definitely some kind of surveillance system, it's safer to eat back at the hotel.

With this thought in mind, he got up and left.

Walking down the street, it was already evening.

Lin Ye put away the Heavenly Man's Staff and looked back at the roadside bushes.

After a few seconds of silence, snake heads emerged, each no bigger than an egg.

"Rustle~ rustle~"

After a series of scraping sounds, countless small black snakes crawled onto the road, surging towards the forest like a black torrent.

Lin Ye frowned; the smell of snake was too unpleasant.

"Sora! Sora! Sora!"

With a few soft thuds in the air, the small black snake on the ground was crushed into minced meat, which splattered all over the alley.

But soon, the fleshy bits wriggled and turned back into small black snakes.

Seeing this, Lin Ye felt a chill and turned to leave.

However, this time he did not go home, but went to the Red Whale Security Group.

Not long after, he stood in front of the Red Whale Security Group and looked back. The swarm of snakes that had been following him had disappeared.

Sure enough, they would retreat as long as they were within the Red Whale Clan's territory.

"The Nuo Snake God Cult..."

He muttered to himself, wondering which of the eight sacrificial sites these black snakes came from.

The one at the exhibition? The one with the snake molt? The one with Ge An? Or the one with Xiao Yi?

As he pondered, a bloodthirsty aura surged in his eyes, his killing intent intense.

"Troublesome, just kill them all."
