Chapter 269: Chapter 258: First-Grade Snake Demon

Wang Wu didn’t act rashly. He observed outside the Quick Reaction Sword Array for a while, memorized the characteristics of each Human Race Cultivator and their Spirit Beasts, and then quickly left.

Then he proceeded to the next Quick Reaction Sword Array, and so on.

By the break of the next day, he had visited thirty Quick Reaction Sword Arrays within a thousand-mile radius.

Perhaps there were still some hidden Quick Reaction Sword Arrays, which was possible, but for Wang Wu, it no longer held much significance.

General Xuelang had woken up, but remained silent; Wang Wu could sense its sadness.

Wolf Bu’er was truly dead, but it was not necessarily due to torture; rather, it was more likely that he was used as an experimental subject. Human Race Cultivators also wanted to acquire this kind of Bloodline Talent from the Demon Race. Once they researched it thoroughly and mass-produced it, it would become cultivation productivity.

“Awake? Use the Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques once, in this direction.”

At noon, Wang Wu arrived at a large lake, vast and boundless, quite extraordinary.

With last night’s comparison of all the Quick Reaction Sword Array locations, he was basically sure that this large lake was where the Dark Alliance’s base was located.

Because all the Quick Reaction Sword Arrays were aimed at this direction.

But what puzzled him most was that the Immortal Alliance had already started to mobilize troops and deploy Quick Reaction Sword Arrays, indicating that the general attack could begin at any time, so why was there so little movement from the Dark Alliance?

This was also something that had been baffling him.

Now, with the help of the Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques, he should be able to draw a conclusion using his Level 20.3 Danger Perception.

General Xuelang looked at Wang Wu, “Do you need the peak state of the Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques, or just an ordinary glance?”

“Of course it must be the peak, does it matter?”

“Of course it doesn’t matter. In fact, the peak state of the Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques is the most effective and the least likely to be detected. However, it is costly, and after one peak Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques, I will need to rest for half a month before I can use it again.”

“Great! Then there’s no problem.”

“Are you sure you won’t interrupt me again?” General Xuelang asked uneasily, mainly because the cost was too great and an interruption would waste it.

“I won’t, which is why I need you to look more carefully this time.”

“Alright!”

General Xuelang nodded, and two beams of golden light suddenly lit up in its eyes, becoming extremely dazzling and bright in an instant, like two suns. At the same time, Wang Wu’s Level 12 Spirit Essence sensed a strange rhythm soaring into the sky, very ethereal, very faint.

His Level 12 Spirit Essence only sensed a little bit at such a close distance, not bad, not bad.

And this rhythm soared upwards tens of thousands of meters in an instant, transforming into a gigantic wolf in the sky, gazing affectionately at the large lake ahead!

After just one glance, everything dissipated like smoke, General Xuelang’s face turned white, its body staggered, and blood oozed from the corner of its mouth, seemingly injured!

Wang Wu quickly supported it.

However, at the same time, he had a vague feeling in his heart.

Goodness! Why does it feel like his Danger Perception Talent has been weakened or exempted?

The other side definitely has counter-reconnaissance measures.

At this moment, General Xuelang caught its breath and whispered:

“There is a big snake in the lake, I didn’t see clearly, it seems to be protecting an island, with layers of arrays around it, and that snake, it seems to have sensed me…”

“Xiong Wu, if I’m not mistaken, that’s a First-Grade Great Demon, truly incredible, within the realms of the Human Race, there’s a First-Grade Snake Demon…”

Before he could finish speaking, General Xuelang had already vomited several more mouthfuls of blood, its injuries were more severe than Wang Wu had imagined.

However, it wasn’t a major issue. Wang Wu directly circulated Ice and Fire Spiritual Qi, and the next second, an Ice and Fire Talisman was embedded in General Xuelang’s chest. Within seconds, the injury was brought under control.

At the same time, the Companion Demon Vine flew out, Wang Wu gestured for General Xuelang to open its mouth, and hundreds of tiny Demon Vine Tentacles probed in, removing clotted blood, healing internal injuries, and within a dozen seconds, it was as if nothing had happened.

“This…”

General Xuelang was stunned, its beautiful eyes full of big question marks.

“Xiong Wu? Have you cultivated a Spirit Pill? And it’s an Ice and Fire Dual Spirit Pill?”

“As expected of the Mountain Master of the Great Snow Mountain Academy, truly knowledgeable.” Wang Wu smiled, still in the mood to joke.

General Xuelang was still in disbelief, but didn’t dwell on it, instead asking, “You don’t seem too worried about that First-Grade Snake Demon? I might have alarmed it, and I fear it will lead to enmity later. I don’t think a First-Grade Snake Demon wouldn’t recognize the Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques.”

But Wang Wu shook his head,

“It’s unlikely to cause enmity, but things have become much more complicated.”

Wang Wu thought of the secret revealed to him by She Shoujiu, that Spirit Essence was transformed from Dragon Blood, all Dragons devolved into snakes, and the Snake Spirit colluded with the Fox Spirit, plotting something significant.

Previously in the wilderness between the Great Snow Mountain and Heavenly Dao Mountain, that Fox Demon was shouting for its own people before dying, saying they were seeking cooperation with Xiong Wu and such.

Now it seems that what She Shoujiu said is not false. On the human side, they could withstand the pressure from the Immortal Alliance and form a Dark Alliance in rebellion, with the Snake Race backing them, and it’s a First-Grade Snake Demon.

They certainly have confidence.

But their target is quite ambitious, causing discord, manipulating the various clans, trying to restart the Rising Dragon Dao?

But is this a good or bad thing for him?

Even his Danger Perception is ambiguous.

“So, does this mean there’s not much danger, nor will there be any great opportunity?”

“Also, will the Immortal Alliance not attack proactively, or is the attack ineffective?”

Thinking of this, Wang Wu hurriedly asked again, “In your opinion, can this Great Lake and that island, along with that First-Grade Snake Demon and those various arrays, withstand Lu Wuchen’s attack? Or to put it simply, how do you feel about this place?”

General Xuelang thought seriously for a moment, “If I were to speak in general terms, I think this place is more like a dragon’s lair and a tiger’s den. It doesn’t look very dangerous, but it does make my hackles rise, a feeling of not being able to sleep peacefully.”

“As for whether it can withstand Lu Wuchen’s attack, I don’t know. I don’t even know what cards they have up their sleeves.”

“Moreover, I must say, I’m viewing this with the most peak Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques, seeing through up to eight hundred miles, including thirty miles underwater. I feel that throughout the West Wilderness, even adding the North Wilderness and South Wilderness, there can’t be a stronger Wolf Gaze Divine Technique than mine. Even if Blind Eagle came, he might not be able to see the entirety of that First-Grade Snake Demon.”

“How so?”

“Because that Snake Demon, it seems to have become one with that island. It’s coiled there, about five hundred miles long, encircling the entire island. I ask you, if you saw it, do you really think you could discover it? The same goes for Blind Eagle, although Eagle Eye and Wolf Gaze are equally famous, we each have our own strengths. Its Eagle Eye is better at seeing through one point, locking onto one point, slightly weaker at the overall view. Of course, in reality, it’s also very strong, but not the strongest.”

“My Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques are specialized in overall vision, so many times, I have to release it several times to get a satisfactory effect.”

“In any case, besides me, even if Lu Wuchen were to come, he shouldn’t expect to see that Snake Demon. Of course, if he were to move the Array of Observation of Heaven and Earth and Inspection of Ten Thousand Spirits from Luoyue City to here, he could see the result. In fact, if you dare to approach within five hundred miles of Luoyue City, you would also expose your Passive Concealment.”

“Back then, the reason the Bear Demon Emperor was besieged was largely due to this special scout array playing a significant role.”

“Of course, the cost of deploying such a Grand Array is extremely high, and it consumes some extremely precious materials that even we don’t know the name of. It’s said that within the Cloud Cauldron Nine Cities Alliance, only Luoyue City and Yun Ding City have deployed such a Grand Array. Therefore, it can basically be determined that the Immortal Alliance of the Human Race currently does not know of the existence of that Snake Demon.”

“Wow! That’s incredible!”

Wang Wu clapped his hands in praise, but General Xuelang’s expression turned gloomy, “What use is that, though? My Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques, though unrivaled, cannot provide much help to the Great Snow Mountain. We failed to guard the branch of Grandpa Xishan Tree, which ultimately led to failure. I originally planned to lead my tribe to migrate to the South Wilderness, but this Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques also failed to help me avoid disaster. Now, I guess I’m the only one left of the Snow Wolf Race.”

Wang Wu also felt a sense of poignancy. Indeed, the environment in which the Great Snow Mountain once found itself was too harsh, coupled with Spirit Beast informants, they were practically playing openly against the Human Race. No matter how powerful General Xuelang’s Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques was, it couldn’t yield much effect, and in the end, it was all arranged for conscription.

At the time, this was a hopeless disaster for the Little Demons.

But for a Peak of Grade Three Great Demon like General Xuelang, using such an amazing Divine Techniques for conscription, isn’t that a major irony?

Indeed, the Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques seems more suited for exploration than for patrolling and guarding.

“By the way, do you know about the war in the North Wilderness?”

Wang Wu asked as a way to change the subject, lest General Xuelang become more melancholic.

Unexpectedly, General Xuelang did know.

“I know, because the Northern Wilderness Demon Race invaded the Human Race fifteen years ago. I initially wanted to seize the opportunity to migrate while the Human Race’s attention was drawn to the Northern Wilderness Battlefield.”

“Is the Northern Wilderness Demon Race very strong?”

Wang Wu asked curiously, as the West Wilderness Demon Race was being suppressed in all ways. The Northern Wilderness Demon Race was actually able to invade the Human Race, which is really impressive.

But General Xuelang shook his head.

“Not really strong, just two Demon Emperors in the Northern Wilderness Demon Race.”

“And the reason for this war actually started from the West Wilderness. It’s said that Lu Wuchen’s doings in the West Wilderness angered Grandpa Tree, so this remaining one of the Nine Great Heroes of the Great Wilderness personally stepped out, contacted the West Sea Demon Race, the Beihai Demon Race, the East Sea Demon Race, and the Northern Wilderness Demon Race. Four forces gathered at the border of the North Wilderness, a total of six Great Demon Emperors took charge. It’s said that the Human Race suffered heavy casualties, but there’s also a saying that the Demon Race coalition was the same. This war has been fought for fifteen years and hasn’t ended yet, and both sides are likely to have suffered great losses.”

Hearing this, Wang Wu suddenly understood. It’s not that the Immortal Alliance doesn’t want to attack that island, but the Northern Wilderness Battlefield has tied up too much strength. Even the capabilities of that unknown guy only suffice to temporarily besiege, but not to launch a strong attack.

No wonder his Danger Perception didn’t fluctuate much.

So, what to do now?

He wanted to save Madam Yu, but the fact is Madam Yu is probably living quite comfortably at the Dark Alliance’s base.

And if the Immortal Alliance doesn’t attack the Dark Alliance’s base strongly, he has no way to take advantage of the chaos to assassinate that unknown guy.

Unless he is ready to flee thousands of miles away after succeeding.

“I want to kill that guy and then escape to see that island.”

Wang Wu suddenly spoke, like a flash of inspiration, an idea that suddenly popped up.
