Chapter 273 The Black Serpent King, Dimensional Showdown
The Black Serpent Cult has been entrenched there for centuries, worshipping an evil god called the "Black Serpent God" and practicing a sorcery that unites humans and serpents.
The cult leader, known as the "King of Ten Thousand Snakes," is said to have lived for over three hundred years and can transform into a giant black snake.
The company had made several attempts to eradicate the Black Serpent Cult, but all had failed. The poisonous miasma there was too potent for ordinary people to approach.
After listening, Jiang Mo seemed thoughtful: "The Black Serpent Cult Leader must be another dark bloodline vessel controlled by the Heavenly Gu Sect Master."
"He gained longevity and the ability to transform through a dark bloodline."
"The poisonous miasma there is actually a good thing for us; it can enhance our strength."
During the flight, Jiang Mo continued to cultivate the Golden Gu Divine Might - Dimensional Lockdown, improving his proficiency. He was also preparing for the upcoming great battle.
Chen Duo and Feng Baobao were instructing the Sand Gu warriors on how to deal with possible situations.
As the company's liaison, Wei Duoduo constantly receives the latest news from various places.
"Jiang Mo, something's wrong!" Wei Duoduo suddenly exclaimed, "The observatory has sent an urgent report: the seven planets have begun their initial alignment!"
"It arrived a day earlier than expected!"
"What?!" Everyone was shocked.
Jiang Mo immediately closed his eyes to sense the energy, and after a moment opened them, his expression grave: "Indeed, I can feel abnormal fluctuations in the energy between heaven and earth."
The aura of the dark bloodline also became more active, seemingly echoing the changes in the celestial phenomena.
How far is it from Black Snake Mountain?
"There's still an hour of flight time," Wei Duoduo replied.
Jiang Mo stood up: "It's too late, we have to get there immediately!"
He walked to the center of the cabin and formed a hand seal: "Golden Gu Divine Might, Spatial Jump!"
A brilliant golden light shone forth, and a golden vortex formed inside the cabin!
"Everyone, come closer to me!" Jiang Mo shouted.
The crowd quickly gathered around Jiang Mo, and the golden vortex spun rapidly.
Then, with a "boom," everyone vanished from their spot!
Deep in the primeval forests of Southeast Asia, at the foot of Black Snake Mountain.
A golden beam of light suddenly descended from the sky, and Jiang Mo and his group instantly appeared in an open space.
"Phew—" Feng Baobao let out a long sigh of relief. "Is this space jump? It feels so strange."
Jiang Mo looked slightly tired, but quickly regained her composure: "I expended a lot of energy trying to save time."
As everyone looked up, Black Snake Mountain rose high into the clouds, its summit shrouded in thick fog year-round.
The entire mountain is shaped like a coiled giant snake, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
"The poisonous gas is so thick..." Chen Duo frowned. "The poisonous miasma here is even denser than in the Poisonous Sand Valley."
Jiang Mo closed his eyes to sense the danger, golden light flashing within them: "The poisonous miasma contains powerful dark energy."
"This must be the result of the Black Serpent Cult Leader's many years of cultivation."
"Ahead, I sensed a strong fluctuation of dark bloodline; the Black Serpent Cult Master must be at the summit."
Wei Duoduo was about to speak when her expression suddenly changed: "Look at the sky!"
As everyone looked up, they saw that the stars in the sky were moving at an unusually rapid pace.
Seven exceptionally bright stars gradually aligned themselves in a straight line!
"The alignment of the seven stars has begun!" Jiang Mo's expression turned solemn. "It's even faster than expected!"
"Oh no! The energy fluctuations on Black Serpent Mountain are getting stronger and stronger!" Chen Duo exclaimed.
Jiang Mo waved his hand: "Go up the mountain immediately! We must stop the Black Serpent Cult Leader before the Seven Stars are fully aligned!"
Jiang Mo led the group quickly toward the mountaintop.
The poisonous miasma along the way became increasingly dense, making it difficult for ordinary people to even breathe.
But for Jiang Mo and his group, it was a great tonic, which actually accelerated their progress.
Halfway up the mountain, a large number of Black Serpent Cult members dressed in black robes and wielding various strange weapons suddenly appeared and blocked the way.
"Who dares to trespass into the Black Serpent Temple?" the leader shouted sternly.
Jiang Mo's eyes flashed with golden light: "Get out of the way, or die!"
The man sneered: "Arrogant brat! Today is the day of our sect's sacred ceremony; no one is allowed to approach! Brothers, kill!"
Hundreds of Black Serpent cultists launched an attack simultaneously.
Various venomous snakes darted out from their sleeves, densely packed, blotting out the sky!
"The power of an ant." Jiang Mo sneered, a golden light flashing in his palm.
"The Golden Gu's divine power subdues all other Gu!"
Golden light spread like a tide, and all the venomous snakes that pounced at them instantly froze in mid-air.
They then turned around in unison and launched a counterattack against the Black Serpent Cultists!
&34;How is this possible?&34;
"My snakes! I can't control them anymore!"
The Black Serpent Cult members were terrified, as their own snakes turned on them, and screams of agony filled the air.
Jiang Mo did not stop and led everyone to continue rushing towards the top of the mountain.
The closer you get to the summit, the denser the poisonous miasma becomes, even condensing into a substantial black fog.
They form all sorts of bizarre shapes, blocking the way.
"These are not ordinary poisonous miasma, but rather 'phantom poison barriers' condensed from dark Gu magic."
Jiang Mo explained, "Once you touch it, you'll be trapped in an illusion, forever lost."
Chen Duo asked nervously, "Then how do we get across?"
"Let me do it." Jiang Mo formed a hand seal, and golden light shone brightly from his palms.
"The Golden Gu's divine power shatters illusion and reveals reality!"
A golden light shot out from Jiang Mo's palm, piercing the black mist in front of him like a sharp sword, instantly tearing open a passage!
"Stay close to me, and don't touch the black mist!"
The group followed Jiang Mo closely and finally arrived at the mountaintop platform.
At the center of the platform is a huge black stone palace.
A black snake statue, over ten meters tall, stands in front of the hall. It is so lifelike that it is terrifying.
In front of the stone hall, a tall man in black robes stood there, seemingly having been waiting for a long time.
"Welcome, reincarnation of the Gu God." The black-robed man's voice was deep and chilling. "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Jiang Mo's golden eyes were fixed on the man in black robes: "The puppet of the Black Serpent Cult Leader, no, it should be said—the Sect Master of the Heavenly Gu Sect."
The man in black robes let out a hoarse laugh: "A puppet? Hahaha, in a while you'll see who the real puppet is."
"The alignment of the seven stars will be fully formed in less than an hour."
"At that time, the great Heavenly Gu Sect Master will return to the mortal realm!"
"And I will become his most capable assistant, gaining boundless power and eternal life!"
Jiang Mo sneered: "Wishful thinking! Today I will purify the dark bloodline within you and completely sever the Heavenly Gu Sect Master's hopes!"
"Is that so?" The man in black robes suddenly threw off his cloak, revealing his true face.
It was a face somewhere between a human and a snake, with no nose, only two vertical slits, and amber snake-like eyes.
It has sharp fangs protruding from both sides of its mouth, and its whole body is covered with black scales.
"You think you can defeat me?" the Black Serpent Cult Leader sneered. "I have lived for over three hundred years, devouring the essence of countless cultivators."
"Even without the dark bloodline, I am still one of the most powerful beings in this world!"
Jiang Mo remained unmoved: "Three hundred years? Before the God of Gu, that's nothing but a snap of the fingers."
