591: cooperate

"What path?"

Wang Yan and Wang Gou both asked.

Dongfang Chen said with a bitter smile,

"With such a massive serpent blocking our way, what path can we take? Of course, we can only go around it."

They weren't confident they could kill this serpent and pass directly.

And that left them feeling somewhat unsure.

As this suggestion was made, everyone nodded.

They all didn't want to fight this great serpent.

This great serpent was so powerful that if they engaged it, some of them would surely lose their lives here.

Immediately, they decided to turn around, bypass this path, and re-enter the center of the Secret Realm.

However, not long after they left,

The ground suddenly vibrated violently.

An astonishing sound also came from a distance.

Wang Yan and the others were startled, then turned their heads to look.

They saw an incredibly massive figure not far away, charging towards them like a small mountain.

This sound was not from anything else; it was from the great serpent they had just encountered.

The sound of its scales rubbing against the ground was deafening.

Its rapid speed made them feel as if there was an earthquake.

For a moment, everyone present was astonished, their jaws dropped.

"What happened? What's going on?"

"We clearly didn't provoke her, so why is she chasing us?"

"Looking at her now, it seems she's even been enraged."

"Let's run, quickly! If she catches up, nothing good will happen."

Everyone spoke at once, their expressions slightly agitated.

And that was indeed the case.

If such a terrifying great serpent caught up to them, many of them would likely pay the price with their lives.

The reason they chose to go around earlier was precisely because it was difficult to contend with.

They didn't expect that this great serpent would now actively pursue them.

A great battle seemed unavoidable.

Seeing the great serpent getting closer and closer to them,

Wang Yan also snapped back to reality, gritting his teeth and saying,

"Everyone, attack together."

The others also didn't hesitate.

Following behind Wang Yan, they simultaneously attacked, striking at the giant serpent.

Boom, boom.

Continuous sounds of Dao Law collisions instantly enveloped the giant serpent.

The giant serpent let out a huge hiss.

At the same time, its scales continuously emitted golden-silver frost.

Immediately after, this frost seemed to freeze the surrounding space, condensing ice cones from the space, which shot towards everyone.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Colliding with the Dao Law, astonishing aftershocks were produced.

A series of earth-shattering explosions echoed ceaselessly.

At this moment, the heavens and earth trembled.

But just as they engaged, some people, lacking sufficient strength, instantly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and flew backward.

The current situation was clearly somewhat unfavorable.

The power of this great serpent was far beyond what all of them combined could overcome.

And the attacks unleashed by the great serpent were even more something they couldn't withstand.

Even Wang Yan and Wang Gou were struggling immensely.

Every collision and engagement caused them to be continuously pushed back.

"This great serpent is too strong. It seems difficult for us to win."

Wang Yan's expression was somewhat grim.

No sooner had he finished speaking than an incredibly massive tail descended from the sky.

He himself was sent flying.

He stabilized his figure on the ground, looking extremely disheveled.

The expression on his face grew even more solemn.

"What should we do? My flames seem unable to penetrate its outer scales."

"If we really can't defeat it, then we can only flee."

Wang Yan was stunned for a moment.

Seeing this, Wang Gou immediately explained,

"Fool, what else can we do if we don't flee? Are we supposed to stay here and wait for death? This is the Great Luo Secret Realm, full of dangers. If we get injured here and then encounter other dangers later, what will we do? We can only preserve our living forces as much as possible."

"Moreover, what's wrong with fleeing when encountering danger? Human nature seeks advantages and avoids harm. Isn't this what we should do?"

Wang Yan was stunned by these words.

Some words came to his lips, but he eventually swallowed them.

After all, they had already formed an alliance.

If they were to directly betray each other, it would be somewhat disloyal.

Boom, boom.

The giant serpent, like a small mountain, continuously swung its massive tail.

Powerful ice cones were condensed and formed by it.

The Law of Dao continuously surged.

Amidst the collisions, a large number of Cultivators were directly defeated and sent flying.

Pfft, pfft.

Mouthfuls of fresh blood gushed out.

Some extremely weak individuals were even knocked unconscious.

Dongfang Chen, being a prince, was greatly horrified at seeing such a scene.

It's over.

He could already imagine himself and the others being slain shortly.

But no matter what, he hadn't expected it.

They clearly hadn't attacked this giant serpent, yet it was still chasing them so relentlessly.

Perhaps at this moment, an astonishing flame transformed into a sea of fire.

It actually temporarily trapped the giant serpent.

It was Wang Yan's technique.

"Everyone, let's run together. My technique won't hold him for long."

Wang Yan was, after all, a bit too righteous.

He hadn't intended to abandon these people and flee directly.

As these words came out, the vast majority of people were incredibly grateful.

Clearly, they also lacked the confidence to deal with this giant serpent.

But at this very moment,

One of the princes stepped forward.

It was Dongfang Qingcang.

"Everyone, don't panic. I might have a way to deal with her."

As these words were spoken, everyone looked over.

Their eyes all held a hint of disbelief.

After all, to be able to deal with a powerful Yao Beast of the True Immortal Realm...

How powerful would that technique have to be?

Seeing the doubt in everyone's eyes,

Dongfang Qingcang didn't hesitate, taking out an item.

It looked like it was made of gold, and it was an incredibly delicate rope.

He simply threw the rope out.

The next moment, the rope suddenly grew larger, then, incredibly nimble, it coiled around the giant serpent like a long snake.

After a moment, it actually temporarily bound the giant serpent.

"Everyone, attack now!"

Dongfang Qingcang spoke loudly.

Everyone reacted instantly, immediately focusing their attacks.

Boom, boom, boom.

Continuous Dao Laws were unleashed.

The Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth fluctuated greatly.

The giant serpent seemed to writhe frantically in pain.

But it was tightly bound by the rope on its body.

Clearly, it couldn't break free for a while.

It did, however, let out a roar to the sky.

Immediately after, a large number of ice cones were condensed again.

They shot towards the rope on its body.

It was clear that at this stage, the giant serpent's intelligence was already not low.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but gasp again.

Although they had never seen such a scene on other Yao Beasts before,

It was not an incredible thing for a creature to gain a bit of sentience over long years.

But if the giant serpent in front of them were to break free, they would all likely be done for.
