Chapter 1167: Chapter 279: Damn, Is This Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber?

No solution!

But it seems this giant serpent can’t leave the mountain cave!

Prince Ruyang waited outside for a long time, yet the golden giant serpent inside the cave didn’t chase him out. Is it too lazy to chase or unable to leave this cave?

Prince Ruyang pondered, furrowing his brows.

Then he looked at Lord Wuxiang and asked, ”Master, have you ever seen such a powerful giant snake?”

Lord Wuxiang clasped his hands and replied, ”Your Highness, such a giant snake, this old monk has never encountered, and judging by its shape and cultivation, it has lasted for probably a thousand years, and a thousand-year-old giant snake is likely approaching the Dragon Transformation Tribulation!”

”Dragon Transformation Tribulation?”

Prince Ruyang was taken aback, and then quickly said, ”Is it the Dragon Transformation Tribulation that leads to the Heavenly Human Realm, becoming an Earthly Immortal?”

Lord Wuxiang nodded lightly, ”Yes, if this giant snake can survive the Dragon Transformation Tribulation, it will become a true Flood Dragon, and such a Flood Dragon!”

Lord Wuxiang paused and said, ”Its strength might not be inferior to the top two in the world today.”

Prince Ruyang fell silent, as everyone knows the top two in the world, they are famous.

Wudang Zhang Sanfeng and the Great Capital’s Basiba Living Buddha, these two are the icons in the martial arts world, eternally unsurpassable peaks!

And today, a snake is only one step away from reaching such high levels, which made Prince Ruyang’s heart tremble.

”Then, Master, do you know why this giant serpent isn’t chasing us?”

Lord Wuxiang thought for a moment and said, ”Two possibilities: one is that it is unwilling to leave the cave, and the reason is simple, we intruded and disturbed its rest, so it retaliated.”

”The second is that it cannot leave the cave, which could have many reasons, but I have an idea.”

Prince Ruyang looked at Lord Wuxiang and said, ”I am eager to hear!”

Lord Wuxiang thought for a while and said, ”It fears the Dragon Transformation Tribulation!”

Hearing this, Prince Ruyang raised an eyebrow, ”What do you mean?”

Lord Wuxiang said, ”Nature’s spiritual energy is rapidly depleting, and the Dragon Transformation Tribulation requires a vast amount of spiritual energy. If the giant serpent experiences the tribulation without the spiritual energy to transform into a Flood Dragon, it will face depletion and death!”

Upon hearing this, Prince Ruyang said, ”Why would nature be so harsh to living beings?”

”But it is just as well.”

Prince Ruyang said, ”If it truly survives the Dragon Transformation Tribulation, we will have a problem.”

”Have the orders sent out to encircle the mountain cave with soldiers, since they won’t let us in, we won’t let them out!”

”Yes.”

He Yishou, hearing this, immediately sent an envoy to Wang Baobao, instructing him to lead the White Deer Army to completely encircle the mountain cave.

Let’s see how long they can stay out.

Prince Ruyang thought, heading directly to the Five Poison Sect headquarters not far from here, entering the Sect’s Divine Temple, where he saw the massive statue.

Chiyou’s God Statue.

Prince Ruyang just looked at the Chiyou statue, pondered and said nothing, as at this moment, Wang Baobao, He Yishou, Lord Wuxiang, and several military officers of Hundred Households rank and above gathered in the main hall.

At this moment, Wang Baobao clasped his fists and said, ”Father King, according to your command, we found seven exits from the entire cave and have posted guards at each. At any sign of trouble, we will immediately report.”

Prince Ruyang said, ”Mm, keep watch. High-ranking warriors may come and go as they please, but if any civilians try to pass, intercept them immediately.”

”Tens of thousands of Miao people are in this cave, their daily needs will surely trouble the Mother Gu.”

After saying this, Wang Baobao said, ”Father King is right, but are we just going to wait like this?”

Prince Ruyang said, ”I would also like to enter the cave, but a golden giant serpent inside is formidable, beyond my capacity to confront!”

Wang Baobao was stunned, ”A golden giant serpent, then why doesn’t it chase us out?”

At this, Lord Wuxiang replied, ”This giant serpent is likely facing the Dragon Transformation Tribulation, yet with the current scarcity of spiritual energy, encountering the tribulation equates to seeking death, so it hides within the earth veins, using their energy to shield itself, thus avoiding the Heavenly Tribulation.”

Hearing this, Wang Baobao said, ”Oh, so you mean the serpent can’t see daylight; once exposed, it could easily be struck dead by celestial lightning.”

Lord Wuxiang said, ”Exactly so.”

Wang Baobao said, ”Good, given that, Father King, let’s immediately summon the Minister of Xiang Land, make him send in a hundred thousand labourers into the mountains. Aren’t they hiding in the cave? Let’s dig out the mountain, and see how the serpent hides!”

”Let the celestial lightning strike it dead!”

Wang Baobao’s murderous aura filled the hall, causing those present, including Prince Ruyang, to gasp in shock — even Prince Ruyang was taken aback by Wang Baobao’s words, ”Goodness, you’re planning to crack open the mountain!”

Mobilizing a hundred thousand labourers, how long will it take to dig?

Lord Wuxiang looked at Wang Baobao and said, ”Young Prince, I understand your feelings, but mobilizing a hundred thousand labourers, their food and drink needs, this Xiangxi Region may not be able to sustain it, this area is already impoverished.”

Wang Baobao said, ”If the supplies aren’t enough, we’ll transport grain from Hubei and Lingnan areas.”

”But even with a hundred thousand labourers, this towering mountain cannot be unwrapped in a day, it won’t be dug out quickly.”

Wang Baobao said, ”If it can’t be dug out quickly, then there aren’t enough labourers; if a hundred thousand aren’t enough, then two hundred thousand, if two hundred thousand aren’t enough, then five hundred thousand!”

”No matter what, if Yaya is not rescued, I will not rest!”

Wang Baobao shouted indignant.

Hearing this, those around gasped in shock, Wang Baobao seemed a bit irrational.
