Zhang Chen looked at Chen Xu and asked, "Did you bring any containers?"
Chen Xu chuckled at this and replied, "What containers do I have? I just want to bathe directly in the snake blood and see if I can awaken some Bloodline Power."
Zhang Chen glanced at Chen Xu, and the next moment, a stream of snake blood sprayed directly from his palm, drenching Chen Xu completely.
"Is this Ba Snake Blood?" Chen Xu was stunned as he felt the power permeating his skin, not knowing how Ba Snake Blood sprayed from Zhang Chen’s hand.
Zhang Chen nodded upon hearing this. Chen Xu chuckled and clasped his fists in salute towards Zhang Chen, "Much appreciated, much appreciated!"
After speaking, he moved away into the distance.
He wasn’t foolish; he would take advantage of whatever benefit he could get. Knowing when to stop is the mark of a wise person; otherwise, once people from major forces arrive, getting away would be impossible.
Seeing Chen Xu leave, Zhang Chen secretly praised him. The kid is smart. Then, he transformed into mist once more, arriving atop the Ba Snake’s back. He looked at the great snake’s body, still tens of miles in size, and couldn’t help but frown: "At my current bloodsucking speed, if I continue, the benefits will be limited. Once the strong ones from various forces arrive, it won’t be possible to steadily earn points."
After all, a giant snake stretching tens of miles—unless the forces are foolish, they surely won’t overlook it.
Zhang Chen pondered, realizing his Devouring Skill was too slow, prompting him to think of a better solution: the Bloodsucking Technique!
His Bloodsucking Technique had reached level five, allowing for incredibly fast blood consumption speeds that far exceed anything the Innate Mosquito mouthpart could achieve.
The Bloodsucking Technique couldn’t pierce Ba Snake scales, but he had the Innate Mosquito mouthpart!
In the same area, utilizing the Innate Mosquito mouthpart to pierce repeatedly, isn’t it possible to open a wound?
If once doesn’t work, then ten times; if ten times don’t work, then a hundred times.
Moreover, the Innate Mosquito mouthpart can consume anything spiritually significant. Since Ba Snake’s scales possess spirituality, they’re within the consumption range of the Innate Mosquito.
Thinking thus, Zhang Chen climbed onto the snake’s back, using the Innate Mosquito mouthpart to start devouring, beginning with the scales. Within just one hour, he had devoured a needle-thin passage.
As the passage formed, blood started to seep out; Zhang Chen immediately summoned the Vampire Bat’s mouth, plunging the sharp bat teeth inside.
Once the bat teeth were embedded, they began extending wildly, delving directly into Ba Snake’s abdomen, devouring its blood like a whale.
Compared to the Devouring Skill, bat teeth differ only in their sole capability of bloodsucking, which can only enhance the Blood Control Technique.
Whereas the Devouring Skill indiscriminately consumes everything—be it flesh, blood, or bones—without hesitation.
Zhang Chen sat there, left hand wielding bat teeth, right hand using the Innate Mosquito mouthpart, wildly devouring on the Vampire Bat’s body.
At this moment, Zhang Chen’s Crystal Core vibrated, the Eleventh-Grade Lotus sparkled in the Sea of Blood, and Zhang Chen’s Blood Control Technique points surged wildly. After half a day, the Ba Snake had shrunk from tens of miles to nine miles due to Zhang Chen’s consumption.
Meanwhile, Zhang Chen’s Blood Control Technique points continued to plummet upward, when a figure appeared sneakily far away, swiftly arriving before the Ba Snake’s body, gazing at the enormous Ba Snake with a hint of shock in his eyes: "Such Creation, my opportunity has come! Although I missed my Divine Position, if I gain opportunities from the body of this ancient god-demon, it will suffice to compensate for my loss."
Ma Zhou examined the Ba Snake. Each scale was the size of a millstone, flashing a cold, dark luster, with mysterious runes faintly flowing on them.
Ma Zhou pulled out a knife from his waist, slashing at a Ba Snake scale. Immediately, sparks flew, and the long knife in Ma Zhou’s hand shot out a burst of fire, making his hand go numb. Then he looked down: Well, damn, the knife chipped.
Looking at the snake scale again, not even a scratch.
"Pah, what hundred-refined steel saber, it can’t even break through a snake scale." Ma Zhou cursed angrily, tossing the steel saber to the ground but couldn’t bear to leave it there: "After all, it cost fifty taels of silver; can’t just throw it away."
Shoving the long knife back into its sheath, Ma Zhou’s eyes surveyed the entire Ba Snake’s body, knocking on the scales with his finger, then sighed dejectedly: "Damn it, such Creation right before me, yet I’m powerless—what a disaster!"
Anyone staring at the Ba Snake’s body knows it’s an unparalleled, groundbreaking Great Creation. Just obtaining a drop of blood ensures phenomenal achievements. But this Ba Snake is impervious to blades and fire, leaving him helpless.
"What a disaster!"
Walking around the Ba Snake’s body, Ma Zhou stomped his feet anxiously; every minute, every second was exceedingly precious. The Ba Snake is too conspicuous, attracting countless gazes. Managing to seize the advantage first, if he delays, countless others will arrive, and by then, what advantage could he have?
Ma Zhou fretted, circling around the Ba Snake’s massive body, feeling utterly stumped, his gaze showing hints of frustration.
After pondering deeply, Ma Zhou seemed to think of something, muttering, "The scales of the great snake are so hard, but the eyes of the great snake might not be as tough as the scales."
