24: Chapter 24 Taking a gamble, a bicycle becomes a motorcycle

Feeling its health bar rapidly dropping, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent immediately cast Ice Armor on itself.

A shield value clearly appeared over its health bar, significantly reducing the actual damage caused by the toxins.

However, no matter how it protected itself, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent's health continued to decline slowly.

After all, Tang Mo's toxins could directly affect the target's soul.

Internal toxin damage might be offset by a shield, but damage to the soul could not be negated.

It was just that the effect of Soul Poison on living creatures wasn't that obvious; after all, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent was not an undead creature.

Consequently, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent's health dropped very slowly.

Within the Poison Barrier, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent constantly flicked its tongue to sense the enemy's position.

The incessantly falling black rain made it feel extremely irritable.

It sensed a threatening scent from the black rain.

With a shudder of its serpentine body, the Frost Domain expanded.

The surrounding temperature dropped even lower.

Before the Poison Rain from the sky could touch the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent's body, it was frozen directly into blocks of ice.

Of course, even if the Poison Rain touched the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent's body, it wouldn't be able to penetrate its solid scales to cause damage.

"To deal more damage to the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent, I must strike the toxins into its body through its mouth."

This reminded Tang Mo of a cold joke from his past life: can a venomous snake be killed by its own venom?

Tang Mo didn't know if a venomous snake could be killed by its own venom, but he was certain that this venomous snake today would definitely be killed by his poison.

After all, it was either its death or Tang Mo's.

With another angry roar from the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent, countless small white snakes converged from all directions, crawling toward Tang Mo's location.

Tang Mo raised his hand, and six thick Highly Poisonous Vines directly swept up a large swarm of small white snakes, crushing them all to death with a single twist.

Since they were summoned creatures of the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent, they provided no experience points.

Sensing that its summoned snake minions had been killed by Tang Mo, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent was beyond furious. Its thick tail swept across, instantly kicking up a flurry of ice shards.

The snake tail easily severed Tang Mo's body, but in the next second, he was instantly whole again.

Tang Mo, possessing a God-tier passive skill, was immune to physical damage!

With its strike missing, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent lunged forward, its massive body instantly surrounding Tang Mo, and then, Death Coil was activated.

Tang Mo stood there motionless, a trace of a sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"After trying so many times, why haven't you learned? It seems a beast is just a beast."

The snake's body coiled tightly, but Tang Mo had already transformed into a puff of poisonous smoke and slipped out through the gaps in its coils.

Then, he reformed right before the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent's eyes.

Sensing the enemy suddenly appearing in front of it, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent opened its bloody maw and lunged to bite.

Tang Mo seized the opportunity, and 17 arrows condensed from venom hit the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent's mouth again.

The stacks of venom on the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent increased once more, reaching 24 layers.

The shield value of the Ice Armor was instantly cleared, and the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent's health began to drop at a terrifying speed.

With the damage from 24 stacks of toxins, even with 800,000 stamina, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent couldn't last four seconds.

Roar!

Sensing its own condition, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent entered a state of rage, and skills began to pour frantically toward Tang Mo.

But as a mere Level 20 Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent, all its skills were just ordinary spells, unable to cause any damage to Tang Mo at all.

Tang Mo charged directly at the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent to lure it into opening its mouth to attack him.

After all, monsters in a dungeon don't have much intelligence.

Through constant baiting, Tang Mo continuously added more stacks of toxins to the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent.

Finally, with a trace of resentment, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent collapsed within Tang Mo's Poison Barrier.

[Killed Level 20 Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent, Exp +91,903, Toxin Damage +2, Stamina +0.01]

[Obtained Serpents Reverse Scale *1]

[Obtained Silver-grade Snake-Head Staff: Spirit +90, Skill Damage +5%, Skill Cooldown -2%, Level Requirement: 20.]

[First clear of Dayang Dragon Palace Dungeon, Exp +10,000]

[Cleared purgatory difficulty dungeon, Exp +20,000]

Equipment grades from low to high are Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Supreme, and Godly.

Tang Mo was very dissatisfied that a purgatory difficulty dungeon only dropped a Silver-grade staff.

"Sigh, at least it's equipment I can use. I'll make do with it for now."

The attributes of this Silver-grade staff were honestly a bit trashy.

The damage increase was just a tiny bit, which was simply not enough for a purgatory difficulty dungeon.

The only thing about a Silver-grade staff that caught Tang Mo's eye was the skill cooldown reduction.

As for the Serpents Reverse Scale, it was obviously a material.

Tang Mo exited the dungeon while grumbling.

The entrance to the dungeon was still crowded, with countless people coming out.

In the crowd, Tang Mo didn't look particularly eye-catching.

But it had only been about ten minutes since he entered the dungeon.

Although many people believed it was impossible for him to come out of the dungeon, some still remembered Tang Mo's figure.

Ma Xueyi stood at the dungeon entrance with a depressed look. Originally, he wanted to cling to some experts to get through a Nightmare difficulty dungeon, but no one paid him any attention.

Watching the people coming and going at the dungeon entrance, his eyes suddenly lit up. "Isn't that the guy who just entered the dungeon solo? He actually came out alive?"

Ma Xueyi's words quickly attracted the attention of others, but by the time they turned around, Tang Mo had already entered the dungeon again.

"Where? Why didn't I see him?"

"Hehe, Ma Xueyi is going crazy trying to fool people. Ignore him."

Seeing that no one believed him, Ma Xueyi tried hard to explain,

"I really saw him, but he just went back into the dungeon."

"Sigh, when have you ever told the truth!"

"Exactly! There should be a limit to lying!"

"Look at you, you don't even have a single decent piece of equipment, yet you want to enter Nightmare difficulty. I think you're even more unreliable than that kid."

"Yeah, you might not value your life, but others do."

Ma Xueyi only sneered at their mockery.

"What do you know? Take a risk, turn a bicycle into a motorcycle,

Take a gamble, turn a motorcycle into a jeep. People like you will never achieve anything in your lives."

The other Professionals shook their heads upon hearing this. "Another lunatic!"

They all turned away and ignored him.

Entering the dungeon again, Tang Mo now had experience. He immediately activated his Poison Barrier and summoned Poison Rain.

The first wave of Shrimp Soldier was quickly cleared out.

Next were the Rock Crab, which took almost no effort at all.

Grinding his way to the second floor like this, Tang Mo's level increased by 1 again.

It couldn't be helped; the purgatory difficulty dungeon gave too much.

Facing the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent again, Tang Mo had mastered the technique and threw himself directly at it.

Soon, the Ice-Blue Eyed Serpent fell once more under Tang Mo's poison arrows.
