Chapter 1251: Chapter 1250: The Shrine Hidden in the Valley
Ling Feng looked up at the Five-Headed Snake in the distance, still trying to recover. He gently flicked his fingers, and a ray of Sword Qi shot from his fingertip. Although this Sword Qi was not very powerful, it accurately struck the Snake Crown on the middle head of the Five-Headed Snake.
A burst of blood mist exploded, and the Five-Headed Snake let out a pitiful scream. A look of despair appeared in its only pair of eyes.
The Snake Crown was the Energy Source of the Five-Step Snake, and also its weakness! If it had been before, Ling Feng certainly wouldnât have been able to harm it, but now the Five-Step Snake was almost on its last breath, unable to protect its Snake Crown at all.
So Ling Feng merely flicked a tiny Sword Qi, which shattered the Snake Crown.
"Without your Snake Crown, youâll finally die, wonât you?" Ling Feng exhaled, then swayed and collapsed into Senior Sisterâs arms, truly exhausted.
Xuanyuan Xia helplessly held Ling Feng, then placed him on the Sky-Swallowing Toad, saying begrudgingly, "Always showing off, now youâre suffering for it, arenât you?"
Ling Feng smiled wryly, "Suffering a bit is worth it, after all... I need to know where my limits are!"
Xuanyuan Xia fell silent, understanding Ling Fengâs meaning. She exhaled and said, "Fine, youâre always right, okay? But what do we do now? In your current state, if you stay in this swamp for too long, youâll definitely be corroded by the poison gas!"
Ling Feng chuckled and said, "Senior Sister, why not add a shield for me while youâre at it?"
Xuanyuan Xia glanced sideways at Ling Feng, "I wonât do it. Do you know how much energy it takes to protect one more person?"
"What should I do then!" Ling Feng spread his hands and said, "Senior Sister, Iâm a wounded person now. Can you really bear to treat an injured person like this?"
"Injured?" A mischievous smile appeared on Xuanyuan Xiaâs face, "But speaking of which, I think your previous plan was quite good!"
Ling Feng was taken aback, "My previous plan? What plan?"
Suddenly, Ling Feng felt a deep malice coming from Xuanyuan Xia.
Xuanyuan Xia slapped the Sky-Swallowing Toad, "Big guy, open your mouth to welcome your master!"
The Sky-Swallowing Toad obediently opened its big mouth.
Realizing what was happening, Ling Feng looked at Xuanyuan Xia in horror, "Senior Sister, you canât do this! Are you trying to mistreat the wounded..."
Ignoring Ling Fengâs protests, Xuanyuan Xia grabbed Ling Feng by the collar and tossed him into the mouth of the Sky-Swallowing Toad. With a reluctant scream, Ling Feng disappeared into the belly of the Sky-Swallowing Toad.
"Isnât this better?" Xuanyuan Xia chuckled, "Sky-Swallowing Toad, letâs move on!"
The Sky-Swallowing Toad croaked, then continued hopping into the depths of the swamp, leaving only countless giant snake corpses gradually sinking and disappearing in the swamp.
Ling Feng felt quite sorrowful, being an injured person, yet not receiving the treatment he deserved!
When swallowed by the Sky-Swallowing Toad, Ling Fengâs vision went black, followed by a flash of white light. Ling Feng found himself lying in a spacious area.
"Oh, Ling Feng, you came in too?" The Bright Saintess and others were surprised to see Ling Feng suddenly appear.
Ling Fengâs mouth twitched, awkwardly saying, "I was just worried about you all, so I came in to check on you."
"Brother Ling is lying!" Tama unhesitatingly exposed Ling Fengâs lie, "Brother Ling got injured. Itâs obvious he couldnât withstand the poison gas outside and came in!"
Infuriated, Ling Feng thought if he hadnât been so weak, he would have given Tama a good "lesson." Such a big child, yet still doesnât understand the principle of speaking appropriately!
Failing, what a failure! Ling Feng couldnât help but feel sorry for Tamaâs upbringing.
However, looking around, Ling Feng realized the Sky-Swallowing Toadâs belly was like its own space. Their group of nearly ten people wasnât crowded at all and was quite spacious.
"Itâs time to develop the Sky-Swallowing Toadâs transportation ability!" Ling Feng rubbed his chin, feeling tempted.
"What happened outside?" Mona Lisa asked, "Just now, I felt a sense of unease, did something dangerous happen?"
Ling Feng waved dismissively, "We just encountered some cute little snakes, but theyâve all been dealt with. But... you could sense it from here?"
Mona Lisa nodded, "Though not very clear, I did sense it. But... they probably didnât notice."
Ling Feng glanced at the Saintess and the others, who carried a trace of guilt on their faces. Clearly, they didnât sense any danger.
It seems Mona Lisaâs sharpness is much stronger than the others!
"Oh, right, Iâve never asked in detail, do you really think your clansmen were taken to the Abyssal Plane?" Ling Feng asked.
Mona Lisa nodded gravely, "After I was unsealed, I returned to our gathering place back then, but... it was deserted. I found a Jade Slip in a secluded area, which recorded the events of that time!"
"Although the records in the Jade Slip arenât very clear, Iâm eighty percent sure our people were taken by those from the Abyssal Plane!" Mona Lisa clenched her fists, speaking solemnly.
Ling Feng sighed. Even if what Mona Lisa said was true, it happened centuries ago. Whether her clansmen still existed was uncertain.
But Ling Feng didnât reveal this harsh truth, and Mona Lisa consciously avoided this possibility. Perhaps she held onto a shred of distant hope!
No one knew how much time passed, but Ling Feng felt his body gradually recovering. With his current physical condition, his Regenerative Power was exceptionally strong.
When Ling Feng had recovered about seventy to eighty percent of his strength, everyone suddenly found their vision darken, followed by a flash of white light, and they reappeared outside.
"Have we already crossed the swamp?" Ling Feng turned around in surprise, indeed seeing the boundless swamp far behind him.
"Whatâs wrong? You look like you havenât had enough!" Xuanyuan Xia said irritably, "Hurry up and get to business. In the valley ahead lies a Portal. If I remember correctly, it should be a Portal to the Heavenly Divine Realm!"
Ling Feng chuckled, "What are we waiting for? Letâs go, I canât wait any longer!"
Meanwhile, in the depths of the valley, several mysterious people stood before a massive palace.
"Finally arrived here!" one of the mysterious people exclaimed, "With the Shrine opening again, our God race will lead the Angel World and Abyss Realm, ruling over this unexplored treasure land!"
