Douluo Continent: Transmigrated into Tang San's Younger Sister and Became a God with Two Martia

Chapter 235 The Netherworld Serpent King

Tang Nian quietly turned her head and quickly exchanged glances with the people around her.

No words were needed; in just a brief glance, they understood each other perfectly.

Immediately afterwards, the group nimbly and silently slipped behind the huge rock.

In fact, they had already conducted a very meticulous investigation of the place before this.

They scrutinized every corner and every detail, and they knew the Netherworld Serpent King's habits and every move like the back of their hand.

When the night is deep, it is the time for the Netherworld Serpent King to leave its lair and go out to hunt for food.

As expected, the group did not have to wait long. Soon, they keenly sensed an intense, suffocating aura of fighting gradually spreading through the surrounding air.

With a slight tremor in the ground, the enormous Netherworld Serpent King slowly emerged from the other end.

The giant snake's body was as thick as the trunk of an ancient tree, and its eyes gleamed with a cold, icy light, as if they could freeze a person's soul in an instant.

Its entire body was tightly wrapped in a thick layer of pitch-black scales, emitting a faint, cold light that gave people a chilling feeling.

The giant snake held its enormous head high, its forked tongue occasionally extending and retracting from its mouth, swaying gently, as if it were probing for the presence of potential prey in the surrounding area.

Its movements appear unhurried, but in reality, they contain an indescribable danger, as if this entire area is its territory, and any creature can only become its prey.

At this moment, the people hiding behind the boulder didn't even dare to breathe.

After all, what appeared before them was not an ordinary soul beast, but a ferocious beast with two hundred thousand years of cultivation.

It is no exaggeration to say that with just a flick of its tail, this Netherworld Serpent King could easily send everyone present flying into the air like pieces of paper.

Faced with such a powerful opponent, everyone knew that the slightest carelessness could cost them their lives, so they were all on edge and dared not relax for a moment.

Wait a little longer, wait a little longer. Although it would be an unfair victory, the Shrek team decided to follow their original plan and launch a sneak attack on the Nether Serpent King.

Everyone gripped the bright red spider lilies in their hands tightly, their expressions tense, as if they were their last lifeline.

A strong sense of vigilance involuntarily appeared on everyone's face, their eyes scanning their surroundings warily, fearing that the slightest carelessness would bring about their death.

Fortunately, the enormous Netherworld Serpent King, exuding a terrifying aura, seemed unaware of their presence. It slithered its body and slowly crawled past the huge rock beside it.

Seeing this, Tang Nian felt a great weight lifted from her heart and breathed a sigh of relief.

However, in that moment of slight relief, a sudden change occurred. Countless thick binding vines appeared around everyone like ghosts, surrounding them with lightning speed.

The Nether Serpent King was incredibly fast, so fast that no one even had time to see its movements. In the blink of an eye, its ferocious and terrifying figure had already silently appeared behind them.

Among this group of people, the most unlucky one was Ning Rongrong, who was standing at the end of the line.

Because of its position at the back, when the Netherworld Serpent King extended its long forked tongue along with its heavy breathing, a drop of thick, pungent-smelling saliva fell precisely and accurately onto Ning Rongrong's fair and delicate neck.

In an instant, Ning Rongrong felt an indescribable nausea and fear surge into her heart. She subconsciously opened her mouth and let out a terrified scream, "Ah—" The sharp and piercing sound broke the silence of the space.

In the blink of an eye, Tang Nian, who had been on high alert, reacted swiftly the moment she heard Ning Rongrong's scream. Without hesitation, Tang Nian activated her soul power, and her second soul ring suddenly lit up. With a flash of light, incredibly tough binding vines shot out.

These vines danced nimbly like serpents, first tightly wrapping around everyone's waists, and then, with their powerful strength, forcefully pulling Ning Rongrong, who was in danger, to their side.

Ning Rongrong was already terrified, her face pale. Her delicate body trembled uncontrollably, and she felt goosebumps rising all over her body.

The sticky, foul-smelling sensation of the saliva dripping onto her neck filled her with extreme disgust and discomfort.

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, the Netherworld Serpent King suddenly spoke in human language, saying, "Humans? It's been so many years since I've seen them. Do you think you can fool me with what you have?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Nian's heart skipped a beat, because they had been here before. If this hadn't escaped the notice of the Netherworld Serpent King, it meant that the Netherworld Serpent King knew about it from the very beginning when they came here to survey the terrain.

But it pretended not to know anything. Tang Nian hadn't expected a ferocious beast that had been around for 200,000 years to have such cunning. However, this also meant that it would be even more difficult for them to deal with the Netherworld Serpent King.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

However, Tang Nian wasn't going to say anything more to the Netherworld Serpent King, and said, "Make your move!"

In an instant, everyone moved. Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun formed a triangle around the Netherworld Serpent King, while Tang Nian, a control-type Soul Master, stood behind Ma Hongjun.

Ning Rongrong, a support-type Soul Master, stood behind Tang Nian.

The Netherworld Serpent King's icy voice rang out, his serpentine eyes fixed on the crowd, "Are you people sent by Yama, the God of Hell?"

It paused for a moment, then said, "What? Have the guardians of the Eight Pillars and that Haier become useless? Sending a bunch of weak soul-powered fools to deal with me? That's wishful thinking!"

No one intended to waste words with the Netherworld Serpent King. As their spirit rings lit up, everyone released their martial spirits.

The Netherworld Serpent King's voice grew even colder as he watched this scene, "What, does Haier look down on me? Soul Master, Soul King, you're courting death!"

However, as he said this, the Netherworld Serpent King's gaze fell on Tang Nian, simply because the two 100,000-year soul rings on her body were too dazzling, and if he wasn't mistaken, her martial soul was the Other Shore Flower, which here represented the Yama God.

His high status goes without saying.
