Chapter 1 I Know Jiu Gui As Well As He Knows Me

Jiu Gui understood me, and I understood Jiu Gui just as well.

I prepared quite a few things before heading towards the Samsara Secret Realm just before dusk.

I knew Jiu Gui would definitely ambush me on the way, so I deliberately had Ye Yang drive on a small road, keeping a close watch outside the car. "The first to attack will be the Snake King. Once you drive onto the winding path, he should make his move."

"Gui Zhenzi should cooperate with the Snake King. In a moment, pay attention to avoiding the Snake King's attacks. I'll tell you where Gui Zhenzi's killing formation is!"

As I was speaking, Ye Yang had already driven the car onto the mountain bend. The originally calm mountain road began to tremble slightly in my sight. The bushes on both sides of the road tilted towards the roadside with rustling sounds.

Anyone who has been in the mountains knows that hearing the grass rustling and tilting to both sides means a large snake is passing through. If it were a small snake, it could only make a sound and wouldn't be able to press down the weeds.

This mountain road beneath us was already fraught with murderous intent under the Snake King's secret technique.

I said in a deep voice, "This is 'Snake Turning Around'. Move forward a bit more, and the snake spirit will emerge from the earth. At that time, just drive straight ahead, no need to dodge."

Snake Turning Around is a secret technique that needs to be triggered. It means: when a person is walking, they accidentally step on a snake's tail. The venomous snake suddenly turns around to bite, and the passerby is caught off guard, making it difficult to avoid the snake's kiss.

The snake that the Snake King left for me was the mountain road we were walking on.

As Ye Yang slightly slowed down the car, the road surface in the distance suddenly shattered. Chunks of asphalt flew up like water, and a huge snake head rose diagonally into the air from underground.

In the blink of an eye, the massive snake spirit tore open ten meters of road surface, and in an instant, it turned its head in the air, aiming at the car.

From my perspective, the dark mountain road was like a door to the netherworld opening, with a cold and violent aura sweeping through gravel and the giant snake rushing out of the door at the same time.

Before the giant snake arrived, the violent wind and earth it stirred up hit the car windows like raindrops.

I felt the car struggling against the wind, and as its speed faltered, the windshield cracked under the impact of the stones. In a matter of seconds, the entire window was covered with snowflake-like cracks.

When Ye Yang instinctively wanted to brake, I suddenly shouted sternly, "Charge forward!"

Ye Yang floored the accelerator, and the car charged towards the snake spirit, braving the wind.

Through the blurred car window, I saw the giant snake open its mouth in mid-air, biting down directly at the roof.

Snake spirits have no physical form. Strictly speaking, they are the souls of certain demon snakes.

Although the momentum of the other party tearing open the ground and emerging from the earth was extremely terrifying, it was mostly an illusion.

I said urgently, "Ye Yang, do you remember which way the mountain road turned just now? Stay close to the mountain! Gui Zhenzi's killing formation must be waiting for us in the middle of the road."

Ye Yang turned the steering wheel, and one side of the car immediately made a sound of scraping against the mountain wall.

As the rocks scraped off by the car flew backwards along the car body, I suddenly heard a strange noise from the roof, like sharp teeth tearing open sheet metal.

Two bright white snake fangs pierced through the roof, heading straight for the back of our heads.

The moment I saw the snake fangs in the rearview mirror, I immediately shouted, "Don't let the snake fangs touch you! They can split souls!"

The snake fangs piercing through the roof was just an illusion. The snake spirit's teeth couldn't possibly pierce our heads like steel knives. Otherwise, given the snake spirit's size, it could simply swallow the car in one gulp, why bother to deal with us like this?

However, the snake spirit's sharp teeth were enough to pull the target's soul out of their body through their flesh.

Anyone who died in the snake spirit's mouth had no wounds on their body, but their clothes were soaked in sweat.

Because, in the moment before their death, they watched themselves being swallowed into the giant snake's belly, a scene terrifying enough to make anyone's back soaked in sweat.

As long as the snake spirit's teeth passed through our heads from behind and then lifted upwards, they could pull our souls out of our bodies like fishing.

Ye Yang and I both ducked at the same time, letting the snake fangs pass over our heads.

However, in that instant, our car also deviated from its direction, uncontrollably rushing towards the opposite side of the mountain wall.

Before I could get up, I felt a red light flash before my eyes.

Su Su's Qi movement!

The thought had just flashed through my mind.

The sound of screeching brakes drilled into my eardrums.

By the time I looked up, the front of the car had already rushed off the cliff, and the snake spirit pressing down on the roof was nowhere to be seen.

The four of us in the car simultaneously pushed open the doors and jumped out. Since Ye Yang and I were sitting in the front, we had to strike the car body with our palms to borrow force for our leap.

Our car also fell off the cliff without any surprise.

By the time Ye Yang and I stood on the roadside, the winding mountain road had already returned to its original tranquility. Apart from the large amount of gravel scattered on the road, there was no sign that a change had occurred here.

Su Su glanced down the mountain, "Our equipment is still in the car, I'll go down and get it!"

"Don't go!" As I spoke, I took out a spirit talisman from my body, ignited it with internal force, and threw it towards the car. As the faint fire floated towards the car body, green flames suddenly rose up around the car.

The moving green fire quickly formed a ferocious snake head with its mouth open, and our car was stuck right between the venomous snake's four fangs.
