Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1788: The Expedition Begins!

After being transformed into an undead race, the giant serpent's agility and speed decreased significantly, especially compared to other Vajra Realm units.

It won't be easy for the camel carrying Zhou Ye to escape its pursuit!
In the blink of an eye, the giant skeletal serpent plunged into the yellow sand, swimming rapidly toward Zhou Ye like a water snake diving into water.

Although the giant skeletal snake was no longer visible in his field of vision, the increasingly intense tremors made Zhou Ye clearly realize that it was constantly approaching him!

If this continues, we'll be overtaken sooner or later!

Knowing that his two legs couldn't outrun a camel, Zhou Ye had no other choice.

"I'm sorry!"

As he spoke, Zhou Ye pulled out the dagger strapped to his leg and plunged it into the camel's rump!

The camel cried out in pain as the needle pierced its back, its speed increasing as the camel's back became more turbulent, preventing the distance between them from closing any further.

However, it's clear that a camel can't continue in this state indefinitely.

After a brief burst of speed, the momentum will inevitably wane.

Soon, Zhou Ye felt an astonishing force pushing him up directly from the sand below!

In the blink of an eye, whether it was due to the training Yarvit had been undergoing recently or not, Zhou Ye reacted with lightning speed. He shrank back, used his feet to step on the camel's back for leverage, and leaped off the camel's back in time, jumping to the other side!
In contrast, the camel that had run all the way was not so lucky.

As the giant skeletal serpent burst forth from the yellow sand below, it swiftly headbutted the camel, sending it flying into the air.

Although camels are known for their thick skin and tough flesh, how could they withstand the impact of the giant skeletal snake?
His body was instantly deformed from the impact, and there was obvious blood spurting from his mouth and nose.

At this moment, Zhou Ye clearly didn't have the energy to care about the camel's life or death. He quickly controlled his body in mid-air, and the moment he landed, he rolled to dissipate the force. Combined with his physique at the Hundred Refinement Realm, the fall didn't cause him any serious injury.

However, he was well aware that the danger he faced was far from over!
As expected, the giant skeletal snake, which had headbutted the camel to death, didn't look at the camel again, but turned around and charged at him.

What might seem stiff and sluggish to a Vajra Realm martial artist appears incredibly swift to Zhou Ye, a Hundred Refinements Realm martial artist. He cannot dodge it with normal movements and can only dodge it by leaping forward.

Throughout the entire process, he had no intention of fighting back; he knew he would be killed in a single encounter!
He tumbled and rolled, leaving Zhou Ye in a very disheveled state.

Is this the combat power of the Vajra Realm?

Real combat and training are ultimately different. The psychological pressure and pervasive panic caused by the mere thought that one might actually die is enough to cause some mentally fragile individuals to break down on the spot.

However, what Zhou Ye didn't know was that just because these two attacks didn't kill him outright, this giant skeletal snake would be called a 'disgrace to the Vajra Realm'.

The giant skeletal snake twisted its body with a crackling sound and pounced again.

Just as he was about to be driven to the brink of death, a dark shadow appeared in Zhou Ye's field of vision, causing him to freeze in surprise, as if he couldn't understand why the other party was there.

"Xuan Yu?"

Ignoring the dazed-looking child, Xuan Yu maintained his peregrine falcon-like swooping posture, like a fighter jet entering the airfield. As he rapidly approached the giant skeletal serpent, his wings suddenly unfurled. In that instant, his wings sliced ​​through the air, sending sparks flying, and with a muffled 'boom,' golden-red flames erupted directly from between Xuan Yu's wings!

The giant skeletal serpent didn't even have time to react before it was instantly engulfed by the golden-red flames.

Normally, the giant skeletal serpent's body shouldn't be afraid of being burned by flames.

However, Xuan Yu's golden-red flames were clearly not ordinary flames. The moment they engulfed the giant skeletal serpent, it felt an indescribable pain, and even its soul couldn't help but let out a shrill scream!
At the same time, Zhou Ye stared in disbelief at the scene before him.

For Zhou Ye, Qian Sui and Xuan Yu were like his older brothers.

Qian Sui is a reliable and capable eldest brother, while Xuan Yu is more like an unreliable second brother who is never home and has the nature of a street urchin. He is either out partying or on his way to party every day.

Zhou Ye knew that Qian Sui was very strong, possessing the strength of the Vajra Realm, but he truly did not know about Xuan Yu's strength.

The giant skeletal serpent couldn't withstand Xuan Yu's golden-red flame storm for long.

Back then, even the Green Emperor of the Vertical and Horizontal Realm was burned to ashes by Xuan Yu. What is this Skeleton Giant Serpent, a disgrace to the Vajra Realm, anyway?
With a flap of its wings, it was cremated on the spot.

"Wow, you're this fierce!"

Having apparently overheard Zhou Ye's words, Xuan Yu rolled his eyes in exasperation, as if to say, 'What kind of attitude is that? I shouldn't have come to save you in the first place!'

The street urchin's second brother transformed into an unparalleled powerhouse, someone even he could only dream of.

The scene before him was so impactful to Zhou Ye that it was as if a new world had been opened to him.

"Wait a minute! If this happens, won't I be the worst cook in the family?!"

"Oh right, and my younger sister too. Never mind then."

At the same time, on the decaying metal throne, the Undying King, who was dozing, seemed to sense something. The deep purple soul fire that was quietly burning deep in his eye sockets suddenly became unstable, as if even his soul was trembling!
"That familiar feeling...it's him! It's him!!!"

As the Undying King's emotions became visibly agitated, like an erupting volcano, deep purple soul fire surged from the Undying King's skull, and the loss of control of his emotions became tangible at this moment.

"That damned beast is still alive?! How is he still alive?!"

The familiar power awakened the immortal king's long-buried memories. The figures that kept flashing through his mind, the nightmares that had haunted him, now reappeared before his eyes, ultimately weaving into endless hatred!

"Marching to war! Marching to war!! Bring me the head of that beast!!!"

With the roar of the Undead King, skeletal arms emerged from the yellow sand outside the palace, and the undead army was awakened once again in a short time.

Without a word, the undead general mounted his skeleton chariot and pointed his sword forward.

"Go to war!!!"
