Chapter 1204: Chapter 454: Spare Me, Your Majesty! Chen Mo: Have I Become the Demon King?

"Roar——"

The snake demon let out an earth-shattering hiss.

A massive wound had been sliced open at the back of its neck, with raw flesh exposed, its head and body barely attached by a strand of muscle, while blood poured down like a torrential storm, staining the black swamp a dark red!

Staring at the silhouette hanging in mid-air, exuding fierce Gang Qi, its yellow-green vertical pupils were filled with terror.

As an ancient fierce beast, its physical body was nearly immortal and indestructible, its tough snake scales capable of shattering all techniques. Even a First Grade Grandmaster found it hard to penetrate its defenses, which was why it had survived that great battle years ago and lived till now.

Yet this man, who appeared out of nowhere, nearly beheaded it!

Especially that endlessly resonating long sword, which gave it an extremely dangerous feeling, a deep-seated bloodline fear!

Intuition told it that if it didn’t leave now, it would undoubtedly die here!

The snake demon didn’t hesitate for a moment, twisting its massive body, it headed straight for the swamp.

The vast swamp was bottomless and spanned hundreds of miles. With the world’s magnetic field in chaos, once hidden, even the mightiest couldn’t do anything to it.

"Hmph, trying to escape?!"

Zhu Huai immediately saw through its intention.

Already fuming with rage, how could they let it go so easily?

The cane plunged heavily into the swamp, Primordial Qi surged out, her hair bun shattered, silver strands danced wildly, as blue ghostly light expanded outwards with her at the center, instantly transforming the surrounding hundred miles into an ice cave!

Frost spread over the snake demon’s body, making its movements incredibly sluggish.

"Mr. Chen, now is the time!" Zhu Huai shouted.

Chen Mo was already prepared, raising the Dragon Marrow Sword high with his right hand, while his left hand formed the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman, continuously channeling thunderous energy into the sword, its blazing brilliance too intense to look at directly.

This snake demon seemed even more troublesome than Qing, so he held nothing back.

First, destroy its shell with Sword Intent, then obliterate its flesh and Divine Soul with Thunder Technique, achieving a One-Hit Kill directly!

Perhaps it was due to the Dragon Marrow’s augmentation, the power of the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman further amplified, like rolling thunderclouds covering the swamp’s sky, purple electric serpents darted about, the intense heat nearly boiling the black water!

"What kind of Magic Technique is this?"

Witnessing the scene before her, Zhu Huai was momentarily stunned.

Tianshu Pavilion excelled at Five Elements Daoist Skill, excelling particularly in Thunder Technique, but it merely stayed at the "technique" level.

Whereas, the thunder handled by Chen Mo carried an ancient and primeval aura, almost akin to the Dao!

"So it was..."

Feeling the majestic pressure, the snake demon’s pupils shrank to needle points, horrified.

The fear lodged deep in its memory was awakened, rendering it devoid of the courage to flee.

The thunder had accumulated to its peak, just as Chen Mo was about to strike it down, an urgent shout reached his ears:

"My king, spare my life!"

?

Chen Mo paused, looked down, and saw the snake demon crouched on the ice, trembling without any intent to resist.

"Mr. Chen, why aren’t you slaying this beast? What are you waiting for?" Zhu Huai frowned.

"Hold on."

Chen Mo sensed something was off, holding the Dragon Marrow Sword, he flew to the snake demon’s side and asked, "Are you speaking to me?"

The snake demon gazed at him pleadingly, a wave of Divine Soul communication emanated: "Yes, my king."

Chen Mo furrowed his brow even tighter, puzzled he asked: "Why do you address me this way?"

The snake demon was somewhat excited, "Though a millennium has passed, your appearance has drastically changed, yet the bloodline fluctuations and this Thunder Technique unmistakably indicate you are the True Dragon!" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"True Dragon?"

Only then did Chen Mo realize.

A lizard transforms into a flood dragon after five hundred years, a flood dragon becomes a dragon after a thousand years.

As an ancient fierce beast, the snake demon was inherently a subordinate existence to the Dragon Clan, and this Dragon Marrow Sword and Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman led it to mistake him for Zhu Jiuyou...

"I knew it. With your strength, it’s impossible for you to perish at the hands of the Human Race." The snake demon’s eyes flickered as it glanced at the distant group, whispering: "Seems you’ve successfully infiltrated the Human Race, should we coordinate inside and out next, to eradicate these insects completely?"

"..."

Chen Mo’s eyes flickered, he decided to follow its lead, saying: "That battle left me gravely injured, my Divine Soul damaged, many memories are blurred... By the way, do you know the purpose of this Yin Yang Reversal formation?"

The snake demon shook its head: "This formation was arranged by you personally; I am not aware."

Saying this, it hesitated momentarily, "But I recall you mentioning once, as long as this world exists, there’s always a strand of Cause and Effect left, never completely obliterated..."

Chen Mo’s heart was stirred.

No wonder, Ji Hongxiu once said, the Daoist Ancestor erased Zhu Jiuyou’s Cause and Effect, and all related information vanished in the river of history.

Yet both Female Demon and this snake demon still remember Zhu Jiuyou’s name, initially he found this odd, but now it seems to be the effect of this formation.

Zhu Jiuyou probably foresaw something back then, thus specifically leaving a contingency...

Seeing Chen Mo showing no intent to strike, the snake demon relaxed somewhat, and it became more talkative, "I knew all along, the Human Race is always cunning and deceitful. That guy approaching you definitely didn’t have good intentions, otherwise you wouldn’t have ended up like this..."

"Wait, who are you referring to as ’that guy’?" Chen Mo caught onto critical information.

"I’m not sure of the exact identity, only knowing you called him ’Lin’."

"You trusted him so much, yet he took advantage of your unguarded moment to bring those Emperor Realm experts here, causing severe losses to the Demon Clan."
