BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 197: Dou Ancestor Realm!

Chapter 197: Dou Ancestor Realm!

Above the boundless desert, a giant dragon soared through the sky.

On the dragon's body, a figure stood steadily, eyes surveying the scene below.

"We're nearing the territory of the Snake People."

Soul force extended towards the distance, and after a moment, Gu He came to a conclusion.

It had been three full days since he left Imperial Cloud Sect.

In these three days, Gu He rode the Black Scale Frigid Python from the Imperial Cloud capital to the vast Tagre Desert at the empire's border.

"I wonder how those little guys are doing."

Images of Xiao Yixian and the others flashed through Gu He's mind.

With their speed, they probably hadn't reached their destination yet.

Even though Xiao Yixian had the Ironwing Giant Eagle as a flying pet, the distance from Chu Yun Empire was vast, and they had to pass through numerous imperial checkpoints.

It would probably take nearly twenty days for Xiao Yixian to reach Imperial Cloud Empire.

As for Nalan Yanran, without a means of transportation, it would take at least ten days to reach the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

Liu Ling had a Fourth Grade Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, and with his speed, he would arrive at the Tagre Desert in about ten days.

If he were heading to Stone Desert City, it would take an additional two days.

After a moment, Gu He withdrew his thoughts from his mind and looked forward.

Not far ahead, a towering city wall slowly came into view.

They had reached the core territory of the Snake People, and this city wall was the first line of defense for the Snake People.

On the towering city wall, dozens of meters high, countless arrow towers were densely packed, with faint purple arrowheads emitting a cold glow under the moonlight.

Soaring in the high altitude, even though it was his second time at this fortress, Gu He couldn't help but marvel at its enormity. This fortress alone was larger than Stone Desert City, a truly ambitious undertaking.

This proved that the Snake People had always been vigilant against human invasion.

Gu He didn't conceal his figure. Riding the Black Scale Frigid Python, he headed straight towards the depths of the Snake People's territory.

On the city wall below, hundreds of fully armed Snake People patrolled with sharp spears.

At this moment, a strange howl, resembling a mix of a wolf and a fox, suddenly echoed in the sky.

Hearing the howl, Gu He's expression changed slightly. Looking up, he discovered several strange black birds circling in the void.

Apparently, they were a kind of alert system set up by the Snake People in the sky.

"It seems that after the last incident, the Snake People have increased their defenses."

Last time he passed through, he didn't notice these. Obviously, these large birds were set up by the Snake People during this time.

"Alert! Alert! Someone in the sky! Spear-throwers, get ready, poison up, prepare to launch!"

Hearing the alert echoing in the dark night, a cold and stern shout resounded from the city wall.

Listening to this command, the somewhat panicked Snake People guards suddenly quieted down. They quickly coated the venom on the javelins hanging from their waists and then looked up at Gu He, who was riding the Black Scale Frigid Python.

"Oh heavens, what kind of magical beast is this? Why is its body so enormous?"

"This must be at least a Fifth Grade magical beast, right?"

"No, it should be a Sixth Grade magical beast!"

"Look, there's a human sitting on this magical beast!"

On the city wall, the Snake People guards stared at the Black Scale Frigid Python in the sky, their eyes filled with shock.

"I didn't expect to be discovered at the first fortress..."

Under the gaze of hundreds of eyes, Gu He was slightly stunned. Then a faint smile appeared on his lips as he continued to fly towards the core area of the Snake People, ignoring the attention below.

"Aim at the position of this magical beast, shoot it down for me!"

On the city wall, an elegant and cold Snake Woman, her beautiful eyes filled with anger, looked at the massive creature in the sky. After a moment, she coldly shouted.

Just as the Snake Woman's command fell, on the city wall, hundreds of fully armed Snake People yelled in unison. Stepping back with their right feet, their bodies half-rotated, and then leaned forward suddenly. Immediately, the venom-coated javelins shot into the air, producing a sharp sound of breaking through the wind, echoing through the silent night.

"These damn humans! Do they really think my Snake People are easy to bully? They dare to invade us repeatedly!"

Staring at the huge creature in the sky covered by the range of poisonous javelins, the Snake Woman, with a cold and alluring appearance, clenched her silver teeth and spoke angrily.

"Today, I'll make sure you humans have no way back!"

Staring coldly at the sky, the Snake Woman's eyes revealed a thick killing intent.

However, under the gaze of hundreds on the city wall, as the poisonous javelins were about to hit the body, a brilliant crystal layer instantly condensed on the body of the Black Scale Frigid Python.

Countless poisonous javelins fell on the crystal layer covering the Black Scale Frigid Python, making crisp collision sounds, unable to pierce its defense.

After a moment, to the astonishment of the Snake People below, the giant creature soared through the barrage of deadly javelins, its body not pausing for a moment, swiftly flying out of the city wall, and finally disappearing quickly into the dark night.

"Damn it!"

Staring blankly at the disappearing giant figure, the Snake Woman on the city wall slammed her fist onto the parapet in front of her. Instantly, cracks spread out, frightening the nearby Snake People soldiers into silence, afraid to speak.

"Clean up the city, repair the city wall, immediately send the intelligence to all nearby Snake People tribes, and notify the leaders of the other seven major tribes. Ask them to send out experts to hunt down this human powerhouse!"

Looking at the pitch-black night sky, the Snake Woman's cold voice was filled with murderous intent.

In the depths of the Tagre Desert, the Medusa Temple.

A powerful aura suddenly burst out from a certain secret room, then headed towards the main hall.

"Elder, you really broke through!"

Queen Medusa looked at the Snake People Elder who suddenly appeared in the main hall with surprise on her breathtaking face.

The Elder's originally old face had actually become much younger, and even some of the graying hair had turned black again.

Upon hearing this, the Elder's face showed a smile and said lightly, "Yes, I have broken through to the Dou Ancestor Realm."

Three months ago, in a battle, the four Elders were severely injured and fell into a coma, almost depleting all of their vital energy.

At a critical moment, Queen Medusa could only take out the Blue Abyss Life-Extending Pill and gave it to the Elder to take. Then, she used a secret technique of the Snake People to seal the physical bodies of the other three Elders.

The Snake People's secret technique could temporarily preserve the vitality in the bodies of the three Elders, preventing further loss.

If they were to find some heavenly treasures in the future, there might be a chance for recovery.

After taking the Blue Abyss Life-Extending Pill, the Elder's vital energy was restored by half, unexpectedly providing an opportunity for a breakthrough.

After three months in seclusion, he directly advanced to the Dou Ancestor Realm.

At this moment, the Elder seemed to think of something, the smile on his face receded, and he said indifferently, "Your Majesty, did that thief really make a deal with you three months ago, promising to return to the Snake People after three months?"
