Starting from Douluo Continent, I've become a god through daily check-ins.

Chapter 524 Yan Shi, Feng Li

"This person seems rather extraordinary," Jing Chen murmured to himself. This was his first impression of the handsome middle-aged man. Of course, who could be simple enough to become a Dou Wang (Battle King) level expert?

His gaze shifted from the middle-aged man to the figure beside him, completely shrouded in a black robe. For some reason, Jing Chen had a vague feeling that ever since this mysterious black-robed man appeared, a gaze had been subtly fixed on him from beneath the robe.

"Who are you? Why have you come to the heart of my tribe in the dead of night? Don't you know that this place is forbidden for humans?" The charming smile on Yue Mei's pretty face had completely vanished, replaced by a chilling solemnity. Clearly, faced with this suddenly appearing and terrifying group, she no longer had the leisure for jokes.

"Hehe, we do indeed have some important matters to attend to in the Dota Gol Desert. I wonder if Your Excellency could lead us into the depths of the desert to meet the noble queen?" the middle-aged man said with a smile.

"Want to see Her Majesty the Queen?" Upon hearing this, Yue Mei's beautiful eyes immediately curved into a beautiful yet dangerous arc, and she sneered, "Our Snake-People race has been at odds with you humans for many years. The wounds we suffer are stained with each other's blood. What is there to talk about? If you know what's good for you, I advise you to leave quickly. Otherwise, once the eight leaders of my Snake-People race gather, the powerful class of the Gama Empire will probably shrink significantly."

"Old He, I told you long ago, don't even think about negotiating with the snake people. They won't fall for that." In mid-air, as if to remind the burly man, he looked down and shouted loudly to the middle-aged man.

The burly man's voice, like thunder, boomed through the air. After a long while, it gradually weakened and eventually disappeared.

"I know this woman. She's the leader of the Enchanting Serpent Tribe, one of the eight major tribes of the Serpent Clan. Hehe, back when the Gama Empire was at war with the Serpent Clan, that old guy Reina fought her, but he seemed to have suffered a bit of a loss in the end." The burly man glanced at the alluring Yue Mei and laughed.

"Reina? You mean that old man who cultivated lightning-attribute techniques during the great war? I wonder if his poison has been cured?" Yue Mei said with a cold smile.

"Thanks to you, although the poison has been cured, it's equivalent to losing an arm," the burly man said calmly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes as he glanced at Yue Mei.

"Old He, let's just capture her. Don't waste any more time. Otherwise, if we're too late, what you want might be gone. And if she gets away, the difficulty of our trip might increase significantly." The burly man said to the middle-aged man.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man known as Old River pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and said with some helplessness, "Since you refuse to cooperate, then don't blame us for ganging up on you. Old Lion, Feng Li, thank you for your trouble." The last sentence was spoken by the middle-aged man as he looked up at the burly man in mid-air and another somewhat frail old man.

"No problem. I've been wanting to experience the power of the snake-people for a long time." Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, the burly man patted his chest and laughed without hesitation.

The other, frail old man hesitated slightly, clearly concerned for his status and unwilling to engage the two of them together. However, his hesitation lasted only a moment before he threw them aside. He was well aware of how much more difficult the later tasks would be with a Dou Wang expert.

The two figures trembled slightly, then transformed into two black streaks, appearing directly not far from Yue Mei. The sudden increase in their speed actually caused a slight sonic boom in the air.

"Yan Shi." Standing atop the sand dune, he shouted, slightly raising his head, and solemnly announced his name—a mere token of courtesy between the strong.

"Feng Li," the frail old man said calmly.

Hearing those two names, Yue Mei's heart skipped a beat.

"These two are actually the Lion King Yan Shi, renowned throughout the Gama Empire and ranked among the top ten strongest warriors, and the Windwalker Feng Li?" Looking at the tall, muscular figure and the slender figure in the distance, Jing Chen frowned slightly. Normally, these high-ranking experts were rarely seen, yet today, two of them had appeared simultaneously in this desert.

"So it was you who dared to trespass into the heart of my clan, two of the ten strongest warriors of the Jia Ma Empire." A mocking sneer rang out, but Yue Mei's pretty face grew increasingly serious. Although she hadn't fought against these two, she had heard of their reputations.

Great reputations breed mediocre talent, and these two are among the top ten strongest in the Jia Ma Empire, which is no surprise given their exceptional abilities.

With Yue Mei's strength, she wouldn't be afraid to fight one of them, but it would be difficult for her to fight two at once.

Furthermore, aside from these two, the silent figure in black robes was the one Yue Mei feared most. That was a super-strong individual, a match only Her Majesty the Queen could rival.

"Why would these people suddenly gather in the Great Desert? Something is definitely amiss. Whatever their purpose, I must deliver this information to Her Majesty the Queen. Otherwise, with their strength, none of the eight tribes can stand against them alone." The thought flashed through her mind quickly. Without further ado, Yue Mei's slender hands swiftly formed a strange hand seal.

At the same time, the snake's tail gently slapped the sand surface, and with a slight muffled sound, the calm sand dune suddenly exploded. A huge sand dune instantly formed in front of Yue Mei and then crashed down on everyone.

"Make your move!" Seeing Yue Mei take the initiative, Yan Shi didn't hold back either. He shouted and raised his head, spreading his arms wide. A pale silver lion's roar, as if it were a physical entity, suddenly spread out from his wide mouth.

The sound waves indicated that the Sharon, which had been slamming down, froze instantly and finally fell helplessly to the ground.

As Yan Shi broke through the sand wave, Feng Li, who was standing to the side, trembled slightly and suddenly disappeared. A moment later, a series of fierce energy fluctuations came from behind the sand wave.

After Yan Shi broke through the opponent's sand wave attack, he charged into the battle circle not far away with an almost tyrannical attitude. Instantly, huge sand ravines, each more than ten meters long, appeared one after another as the energy flew.

Amidst the swirling yellow sand, Yue Meihan's pretty face was cold. In her palm, two streaks of dark blue energy condensed into enormous green snakes. These green snakes were clearly not comparable to the ones Jing Chen had seen before. Not only were these two enormous green snakes covered in hard scales, but their sharp fangs gleamed white as their jaws opened and closed. What was most shocking was that these green snakes seemed to possess a life force. Two faint, fierce auras emanated from their bodies, and with their eerie leaps and sudden attacks, they managed to barely hold off Yan Shi and Feng Li.
