Chapter 370: Nine Snakes

Translator: Radiant Translations Editor: Radiant Translations

That stream of particles was actually a very unique battleship from the Deity world. It had a total of nine snakeheads right at the front, with the centermost head being the biggest of the bunch.

Nine snakes? Xue Ying looked to the distant ship. Is the Sorcerer God himself coming out?

The one known as the Sorcerer God was actually a member of one of the rarest and most unique beast races in existence, the Nine-Headed Snake. Xue Ying had previously encountered the Spider Queen who had a terrifying innate talent; the Nine-Headed Snake was quite similar in that regard! This race of snakes were famous for their venom, while the Sorcerer God himself had become a Deity in a short period of time and then rapidly improved in terms of his usage of hex poisons. He had succeeded in refining a World Heart within 10,000 years, thus becoming the territory Lord of a mortal world, and was then given the name of Sorcerer God in the Deity world.

Still, as a realm lord, his battleship was not one of the mass-produced battleships and was instead made especially for him. Its bow was usually adorned with nine snakes.

Upon seeing the appearance of the battleship, Xue Ying could vaguely guess that it might be controlled by the Sorcerer God’s avatar!

His avatar is personally driving the ship? Xue Ying could not help himself from getting nervous. He would not dare act in reckless abandon, seeing how the Sorcerer God’s avatar had a much higher comprehension than him.

“Are you the Sorcerer God?” Xue Ying voiced.

Hu.

Only upon receiving those words did the nine-headed snake battleship stop. It had flown for over a hundred thousand kilometers already. A voice reverberated from within. “You were actually able to guess it was me?”

“I’ve long ago learned that you, Sorcerer God, are a Nine-Headed Snake.” Xue Ying smiled. “Once I saw a battleship with that mark flying over, of course I could guess it would be you inside. Who else would dare drive such a battleship?”

“For you to know about my true form…it would seem your Xia Clan’s information network is better than I imagined,” Sorcerer God coldly replied with a frown.

Xue Ying did not bother explaining that he had actually received this bit of information from his two seniors within Crimson Rock Mountain.

“Sorcerer God, you’re quite a smart one; you’re aware that your power is being suppressed by the Laws of the material world, so you instead chose to drive a battleship, didn’t you?” Xue Ying held his Blood-Drinking Spear in a single hand as he stood in mid-air and looked toward the nearby Nine-Headed Serpent Battleship. “It’s a pity that you won’t be able to solve anything just by relying on that battleship.”

Xue Ying’s mouth was spouting big words, but his heart remained vigilant. He was using his domain to sense his surroundings, and the Star Pagoda world allowed him to thoroughly investigate any undulations coming from that battleship. The one driving the battleship was, after all, the Sorcerer God’s avatar—an existence who grasped hold of a grade one Deity Heart.

“Brat, this battleship of mine is very formidable. You’ll soon find out in what way.” The distant Nine-Headed Serpent Battleship disappeared the very next moment.

Hua.

The battleship was much faster even than Elder You Ping’s from a while ago. Within moments, it had already reached the front line. The Nine-Headed Serpent Battleship began being enveloped by a huge, complex array which then let out a terrifying, destructive power.

Hu hu hu~

Countless grayish blades formed what seemed like a gale which swept across in every direction. Every one of those blades cleaved and slashed anything in its path as it passed through the thousands of kilometers ahead. Xue Ying was the very first obstacle in their path. Such an attack had a huge area of effect and was so fast that he had no way of evading it. He could only turn his body illusory and hide in the Mirage before taking the attack head-on.

The blades which entered the Mirage only had seventy to eighty percent of their original power when they directly slashed at Xue Ying.

The surface of Xue Ying’s body was protected by his True Meanings and secret techniques. The incoming blades were first met by that protective surface and then also had to cut into the Deity armor he was wearing. Even though the gale-like force cutting him had been dampened by his armor, the impact was still transmitted into Xue Ying’s body and formed countless small grayish wind blades to wreak havoc inside. Even so, their power was clearly much weaker than before.

His Time Immemorial body had easily resisted the attack without sustaining any injuries. With the small exception of a faint numbness in his body, he was actually rather comfortable.

The gale soon dissipated, and Xue Ying’s body recondensed. That battleship’s attack was still within a range he could easily withstand. With the help of his domain, he was able to discern the approximate strength of the attack and find out beforehand that it would not pose any threat. He was still quite calm and collected; knowing he could not be injured, what was there to be afraid of?

This Dong Bo Xue Ying’s body is actually sturdy enough to withstand that attack head-on? Inside the battleship, the golden-robed Sorcerer God’s expression slightly changed.

This battleship had been specially crafted for this war.

It was created for use in unforeseen circumstances…so that he would be able to personally fight. However, it only had a total of two different offensive arrays—one meant for targeting groups, while the other had its focus on one single target!

Sou sou sou!

Without warning, the other snake heads by the sides of the central shot out all at once—a total of eight little snake heads launched forward like a ray of particles, disappearing into nothingness as soon as they began moving.

Xue Ying was originally quite calm and collected, but as soon as those snake heads launched forward, his heart tightened; he could his hair stand on end!
