Myriad Dragon Divine Sovereign

As its body slithered forward, it crushed the gravel beneath it into dust. Its maw gaped, spewing clouds of green smoke. A sinister, chilling light glinted from its dark green pupils.

A Poisonous Python!

Wen Qingye frowned as he watched the giant green python. "This Poisonous Python must have mutated here in the Purple Nether Swamp," he said.

"We have to be careful," the Ice Python hissed as it slithered onward. "It’s stronger than I am. I might not be a match for it."

’Actually, Wen Qingye knew it wasn’t a matter of *might*. The Ice Python was definitely no match for this Poisonous Python. The creature’s cultivation was at the Life and Death Realm Fifth Layer, if not higher. There was no way the Ice Python could win.’

The Poisonous Python slithered over, its enormous head held high as it scanned its surroundings. Apparently finding nothing, it slowly turned and crawled back the way it came.

Wen Qingye and the Ice Python waited. Only after a long while did the man and the python slowly emerge from their hiding spot.

"That Poisonous Python is probably one of the Demon Beasts living in the Purple Nether Swamp," the Ice Python said, looking at Wen Qingye. "Should we still go in?"

Wen Qingye smiled, a sharp glint in his eyes. "Go? Of course we’re going. Once we cross the Purple Nether Swamp, I’m sure Lim Tian won’t dare to follow us through. Besides, I’m quite interested in that Sword Aura."

The Ice Python looked up toward the place where the Poisonous Python had vanished. "But can we really make it through the Purple Nether Swamp?" it asked worriedly.

"Relax. If we’re careful, that Poisonous Python won’t necessarily discover us," Wen Qingye said earnestly.

"Alright, I’ll listen to you," the Ice Python said with a nod.

The man and the python moved forward, cautiously pressing on.

Wen Qingye never let go of the Blood Profound Turtle’s Profound Pearl, and a vast stream of Primordial Qi Essence flowed from it continuously into his body.

He simultaneously blocked the Miasma that constantly tried to invade his body while absorbing the Primordial Qi from the Blood Profound Turtle’s Profound Pearl. The two actions complemented each other perfectly.

After about a double-hour of travel, they had encountered several Demon Beasts. All were incredibly powerful and venomous. Naturally, Wen Qingye and the Ice Python gave them a wide berth.

Just then, the path ahead opened into a vast, empty space, as if they had suddenly stepped into another world.

A vast, gray expanse stretched out before them.

As far as the eye could see, there was only a dim skyline and the purple ripples of water ahead. The violet waves shimmered, and dark weeds grew along the water’s edge.

The sight was magnificent and grand, a sea of purple that seemed to connect with the sky itself.

’Worthy of its name as one of the four great Secret Lands of the Eastern Profound Domain!’

Wen Qingye couldn’t help but smile. "Such a vista is truly breathtaking. The four great wonders of the Eastern Profound Domain certainly live up to their reputation."

The purple waves undulated, glimmering with an enchanting, divine light.

Yet amidst this endlessly stunning and beautiful scenery, Wen Qingye knew that countless lethal dangers must be lurking within.

The man and the python advanced with extreme caution. As a Demon Beast, the Ice Python’s senses were incredibly sharp. The moment it laid eyes on the Purple Nether Swamp, it knew the place was fraught with peril.

Wen Qingye stood atop the Ice Python’s head as its body floated in the air, slowly gliding forward.

SPLASH!

Sure enough, at that very moment, a huge fish burst from the purple water. It was a full ten feet long with long whiskers, and it even had three eyes, the one in the center glowing with a purple, divine light.

ZAP!

The middle eye abruptly shot a beam of intense purple light at Wen Qingye. The beam cut through the air, reaching him in an instant.

The Ice Python opened its great maw and fired a beam of ice-blue light to intercept the purple one.

The two beams collided in mid-air. The Ice Python’s blue light shattered the purple beam and continued straight toward the three-eyed fish.

BOOM!

Instantly, the three-eyed fish was blasted into a bloody mist that scattered through the air, its remains raining down onto the purple water.

"This is bad! Let’s go, quickly!" Wen Qingye exclaimed, alarmed by the sight of blood floating on the purple water.

But it was already too late. The surrounding purple water began to roil, and ripples appeared from all directions, as if something was about to surface.

The Ice Python sensed the danger as well. It immediately activated its Wind Control Skill, its body shooting forward like a gale.

ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!

Seeing the Ice Python flee, the surrounding Demon Beasts could no longer hold back. Several enormous crocodiles, each a full fifty feet long, burst from the water, their massive jaws agape and reeking of a nauseating stench.

"These Demon Beasts are no simple foes! Hurry!" Wen Qingye urged, his brow furrowed as he felt their savage auras.

The Ice Python nodded. "These are Black-Scaled Crocodiles, Demon Beasts at the Peak of the Destruction Realm. I’m not afraid of them, but I am worried about attracting something even stronger... like that Poisonous Python from earlier."

SPLASH!

A geyser of purple water erupted, sending out a spray that made one’s Heart Spirit tremble. A massive column of water shot up from the very spot the Ice Python had just occupied.

Several Black-Scaled Crocodiles crashed into each other, having lunged only at the Ice Python’s afterimage.

Wen Qingye looked back at the Black-Scaled Crocodiles and couldn’t help his surprise. "They’re so fast! That’s not a speed an ordinary Destruction Realm Demon Beast should have. It seems these creatures have also mutated in the Purple Nether Swamp."

The Ice Python twisted its body, covering several dozen feet in the blink of an eye. "Yes," it said. "I can feel a strange power in this water. If a Demon Beast cultivates here for a long time, its strength will increase more than usual. Their demonic qi can also become infused with this power."

’Watching the Demon Beasts charge at them again, Wen Qingye recalled the Dragon Scale. If a single Dragon Scale could intimidate Demon Beasts, then an Azure Dragon’s Dragon Pearl should have an even greater effect.’

"Spit out the Dragon Pearl," Wen Qingye said to the Ice Python. "It might have an amazing effect."

The Ice Python’s eyes widened in understanding. It nodded. "Oh? I’ll give it a try!"

WHOOSH!

The Ice Python whipped its head around and opened its great maw. The golden Dragon Pearl, held in its throat, pulsed with shimmering waves of light.

At the sight of the Dragon Pearl, the Black-Scaled Crocodiles froze in their tracks. They began to tremble uncontrollably, their eyes locked on the Ice Python, overflowing with utter terror.

’Just as I expected.’ A wave of joy washed over Wen Qingye. ’If this works, then crossing the Purple Nether Swamp might not be impossible after all.’
