Chapter 2712 - 2701: Blood of the Demonic Python, Suppression of Cultivation

As Ye Chenfeng began to doubt the true master of this tomb.

Lin Wentian, Kong Nanzhi, Old Bai and Old Hei, and the rest of the group had already plunged to the deepest part of the lake.

Anyone who dares enter Devil’s Lake naturally does not fear the intense toxins within.

After diving to the deepest part of the lake, everyone’s eyes were fixed on a pitch-black cave entrance before them.

Beside the entrance stood a stele, inscribed with four blood-red characters: "Intruders Die!"

Lin Wentian, Kong Nanzhi, and the others were all well-versed in such matters, frowning as they gazed at the cave entrance.

Old Bai Wu Fengxian said quietly, "It seems this should be the tomb of a Chaos Era expert, and someone has entered before us."

The Family Head of the Hes, He Renbai, naturally also noticed it was a tomb, and now that someone had already gone in first, many experts present were unwilling to just watch anymore.

He Renbai was the first to want to enter the cave, but as soon as he took the first step, the restrictive force hidden within the entrance pushed him back, making his expression a bit unsightly. He looked at Lin Wentian and Kong Nanzhi: "Senior Lin, Senior Kong, there’s a restrictive force here. Only those with cultivation below the Peak of the Divine Emperor Realm can enter."

Lin Wentian and Kong Nanzhi secretly sneered; clearly, He Renbai wanted to be the first to enter and gain benefits from the tomb. They both also tried to step inside, but the restrictive force hidden within the entrance stopped them as well. Based on their own judgment, with their current cultivation, they couldn’t break the restrictive force here. It seems this tomb really has some history.

Lin Wentian and Kong Nanzhi shook their heads at Old Bai and Old Hei. Then Lin Wentian said, "Indeed, only experts below the Peak of the Divine Emperor Realm can enter. We cannot break the restrictive force within the cave."

Since Lin Wentian and Kong Nanzhi said so, and they were the strongest present, the others naturally had no doubt.

This time, the Hes not only had He Renbai, the Family Head, but also two elders coming together.

These two elders were only at the late stage of the Divine Emperor Realm, named He Zhonghai and He Dongfu.

He Renbai said to Lin Wentian and the others, "There’s no time to lose. Let those below the Peak of the Divine Emperor Realm enter!"

After speaking, he looked at the two late-stage Divine Emperor Realm elders of the Hes.

He Zhonghai and He Dongfu understood the signal, and they both immediately entered the cave, genuinely unaffected by the restrictive force.

Old Bai Wu Fengxian and Old Hei Jiang Yuntian also wanted to enter, as their cultivation was only at the late stage of the Divine Emperor Realm!

The Lin family geniuses Lin Yurou and Lin Anhao looked expectantly at their ancestor.

Lin Wentian transmitted to Lin Yurou and Lin Anhao: "Once inside, obey..."

Before Lin Wentian finished transmitting, Lin Anhao and Lin Yurou interrupted him, Lin Anhao transmitted back to Lin Wentian: "We will follow the instructions of Ancestor Wu and Ancestor Jiang."

Wu Fengxian and Jiang Yuntian were Lin Wentian’s good brothers, so Lin Anhao and Lin Yurou naturally had to call them ancestor as well.

Lin Wentian glared at the two of them, transmitting to Old Bai and Old Hei: "These two young ones are your responsibility."

Old Bai and Old Hei nodded and immediately entered the cave, followed closely by Lin Yurou and Lin Anhao.

At this time, numerous cultivators below the Peak of the Divine Emperor Realm had already entered, and more experts were continually diving to the lake’s bottom.

As more and more experts entered the tomb.

Ye Chenfeng, inside the small palace.

He examined the palace intently, searching for a passage to the next area, but found nothing special here.

No matter which Chaos Era expert owned this tomb, since he was here, Ye Chenfeng certainly wouldn’t leave empty-handed.

While checking the palace’s walls, Ye Chenfeng didn’t notice that the eyes of the beast sculptures suddenly brightened. Immediately, a giant circular hole appeared on the right wall.

The circular hole was about half a meter wide, and suddenly a "hissing" sound filled the air.

Ye Chenfeng quickly turned his gaze to the right wall, only to see a giant snake head emerging from the circular hole.

A massive python covered in white spots slithered out of the circular hole. Once the python fully emerged, it was about eighty meters long. Its fierce gaze fixed on Ye Chenfeng, emitting an aura of the Early Divine Venerate Realm.

In a mere instant.

The python charged at Ye Chenfeng with lightning speed. Seeing its cultivation only at the Early Divine Venerate Realm, Ye Chenfeng was no longer worried.

But floating beside Ye Chenfeng, the Skyhawk said, "Master, this is a Chaos Serpent..."

Before the Skyhawk could finish.

The giant Chaos Serpent already reached Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng’s aura surged, and with a "pfft," one palm pierced the serpent’s body.

His other hand gripped the serpent’s head, twisting it off entirely.

The Skyhawk hurriedly continued, "Master, don’t touch the serpent’s blood."

Upon hearing this.

Ye Chenfeng frowned, promptly withdrawing his palm from the serpent’s body. Upon examining his hand, he noticed not a single drop of blood stained it.

The Skyhawk said, "The Chaos Serpent’s blood can seep into a cultivator’s body, suppressing their cultivation. The more blood that permeates, the greater the suppression."

Indeed.

Ye Chenfeng began to sense something amiss within his body; he previously knew nothing about the Chaos Era beast, the Chaos Serpent. Could its blood truly suppress a cultivator’s power?

Ye Chenfeng felt increasingly uncomfortable, as his cultivation at the Divine Emperor Realm Middle Stage rapidly declined.

In a brief moment, it dropped to the Divine Emperor Realm Initial Stage and showed no signs of stopping.

If this continues, it will be dangerous here, as this tomb is fraught with peril.

"Master, you must quickly expel the serpent’s blood to restore your cultivation," advised the Skyhawk.

Ye Chenfeng immediately sat cross-legged, mobilizing the Spiritual Qi River in his meridians, feeling the serpent’s infiltrating blood.

By now, his cultivation had decreased to the late stage of the Divine King Realm.
