Chapter Ninety-Four: Poisonous Soul Swamp Formation, Zhu Jiu Swallows Marrow

The moment Shen Ye said, "I saw you," She Xuanyou's expression finally changed.

Within the Poisonous Soul Swamp Formation, his greatest strength lies not in direct combat.

Instead, it is hidden.

Hundreds of snake shadows, each capable of carrying his aura, spread throughout the swamp.

If the enemy cannot distinguish the true form, they will be slowly worn down by the poisonous fog.

But Shen Ye locked his gaze on him at a glance.

Under the perspective of the piercing illusion, all the divided souls are gray shadows.

Only that dark blue core, hidden deep within the swamp array, pulsed exceptionally clearly.

Snake Xuanyou's eyes were cold and sinister.

"So what if I see it?"

"Can you manage?"

The toxic swamp churned.

Hundreds of snake shadows simultaneously pounced on Shen Ye and his group.

Each exploding snake shadow releases the power of the Myriad Poison Devouring Pact.

If an ordinary beast tamer gets tainted, their contract lines will be corroded by the poison.

Han Pojun's expression changed.

"Don't let the snake shadow get close!"

Chu Jinglan's Tidal Domain instantly expanded.

A deep blue water curtain blocked the way, scattering the numerous snake shadows.

However, the toxic fog quickly polluted the ocean tides, and the water curtain began to turn black.

Chu Jinglan frowned.

"This poison can invade my territory."

Qin Wuji snorted coldly.

Thunder Prison unfolds.

The purple-gold lightning struck down, blasting the snake-like shadows into black smoke.

Li Xuance's Azure Lotus Sword Qi rained down, precisely slicing through the weak points of the poisonous mist.

Meng Qianqiu, with a sword and a shadow, killed with extreme speed.

Shen Ye was not held back by the snake shadow.

He looked at Zhu Jiu.

"Can I swallow it?"

Zhu Jiuyou's dark blue vertical pupils gazed into the depths of the swamp formation, and he flicked his tongue.

can.

But a road is needed.

Shen Ye nodded.

"I'll open it for you."

Night Feather ascends into the sky.

The Black Sun Soul Wheel spun, and black-gold flames pressed down on the poisonous swamp.

A crack was burned open in the poisonous fog.

Long Yuan rushed into it, activated his Battle King Body, and smashed the attacking snake shadow with punch after punch.

Jie Chen perched on Shen Ye's shoulder, his piercing vision locking onto the true core of the array.

The gray-gold lightning bolts wound along Shen Ye's arm and onto the black-gold short sword.

Shen Ye vanished forward.

Snake Xuanyou sneered:

"court death."

From beneath the swamp, a gigantic phantom of a venomous king serpent suddenly emerged, its jaws snapping at Shen Ye.

The snake's mouth was filled with poisonous souls that corroded the spirit.

Shen Ye did not back down.

The King of Beasts Body is activated.

Wings formed from ghostly fire.

The shadow becomes the pupil.

Battle blood forms armor.

The tribulation lightning formed a seal.

He slashed down with his sword.

All tribulations are reduced to a single slash.

The phantom of the Venomous King Serpent was cut in half.

Even after the Poison Soul exploded, some of it still rushed towards Shen Ye.

The dust of calamity raised its claws.

Eternal Seal.

The poisonous soul paused for a moment.

Night Feather Netherfire followed, burning it into nothingness.

Shen Ye had already rushed deep into the swamp formation.

There is a blackish-green poisonous pool there.

In the center of the poisonous pool, a dark blue shadow marrow hangs suspended.

It is the Nine Nether Shadow Essence.

Countless snake shadows coiled around the Shadow Marrow, attempting to corrupt it.

The true form of the Serpent Xuanyou is hidden behind the Shadow Marrow.

Shen Ye looked at him.

"I've found you."

Snake Xuanyou's pupils contracted, and in the next instant, his body exploded into poisonous mist.

"Too late!"

The poisonous pool was boiling.

The Nine Nether Shadow Essence was fully activated by the Poison Soul Swamp Formation.

Hundreds of snake shadows rushed towards Shen Ye from all directions, trying to drag him into the poisonous pool.

Shen Ye ignored the snake shadows.

He simply raised his hand.

"Candle Nine".

The shadow on the ground cracked.

Zhu Jiu burst forth from beneath Shen Ye's feet, opening its mouth to bite the Nine Nether Shadow Marrow.

Snake Xuanyou's expression changed drastically.

"shut up!"

Zhu Jiu swallowed it in one gulp.

boom!

A deep blue light burst forth from Zhu Jiu's body.

The core of the Poison Soul Swamp Formation was forcibly taken away.

The snake shadows throughout the swamp screamed simultaneously.

[Zhu Jiu obtained a Tier 5 core material: Nine Nether Shadow Essence.]

[The Poison Soul Swamp Formation's contamination power has been detected.]

[Would you like to consume 20000 Evolution Points to initiate Purification Evolution?]

Shen Ye said:

"Activate".

[Consumes 20000 Evolution Points.]

[Zhu Jiu absorbs the Nine Nether Shadow Essence.]

Purify the pollution of the toxic spirit.

[Level Up: Mid-Tier 4 → Peak Tier 4]

[Bloodline Awakening Level Increased: 39.5% → 57.4%]

[Status: Half-step to fifth-tier transformation.]

[Skill Enhancement: Nine Netherworld Shadow Realm → Prototype of Nine Netherworld Realm.]

Zhu Jiu's body stretched out.

The two short, jet-black horns became even more sinister.

The eerie blue candlelight in the snake's eyes seemed to have entered another world.

The Poisonous Soul Swamp Formation lost its core, and its power plummeted.

Han Pojun seized the opportunity and led the Demon Suppression Army to break through the encirclement.

"Fight your way out!"

Qin Wuji's Thunder Prison descended.

Li Xuance cleared the way with his sword energy.

Chu Jinglan's sea tide surged back into a toxic tide.

Meng Qianqiu shattered more than a dozen snake shadows with a single sword strike.

The situation reversed instantly.

The true form of the snake, Xuan You, fell out of the poisonous mist, its face extremely pale.

"My swamp formation..."

Shen Ye looked at him.

"Now."

"It's time to kill the snake."

The serpent Xuanyou's eyes flashed with a fierce light.

"Shen Ye!"

"Even without the Swamp Formation, I am still a descendant of the Heavenly Serpent King!"

His body swelled up dramatically.

Its lower body and snake tail transformed into a hundred-foot-long giant python, its scales covered with bluish-black poisonous patterns.

A peak fifth-tier aura erupted completely.

[Serpent Xuanyou enters the true form of the King Serpent.]

[Danger level increased.]

Shen Ye gripped the black-gold short sword, about to make a move.

But Zhu Jiu swam out from beside him.

It had just swallowed the Nine Nether Shadow Marrow, and its aura was still surging.

His deep blue vertical pupils stared intently at She Xuanyou.

Shen Ye understood its meaning.

This snake.

It wants to kill itself.

Shen Ye stopped in his tracks.

"go."

Zhu Jiu rushed into the poisonous fog.

The snake, Xuan You, was so angry that he laughed instead.

"A mere beast dares to fight against this royal descendant alone?"

Zhu Jiu did not respond.

The prototype of the Nine Netherworld is unfolding.

For the first time, the shadow of the entire poisonous swamp no longer belonged to the Sky Serpent Clan.

It belongs to the Candle Nine.

The smile on She Xuanyou's face disappeared.

The next instant, Zhu Jiu's figure appeared simultaneously from the shadows on all sides.

Bone Hell.

Shadow entanglement.

A fixed gaze in the candlelight.

The breath of the Nine Netherworld Candle Dragon.

All the skills merged into a dark blue underworld, dragging the hundred-foot-tall true form of Serpent Xuanyou into the depths of shadow.

Shen Ye watched the churning poisonous fog with a calm expression.

he knows.

Candlelight Nine is about to undergo a transformation.
