Chapter 158 Snake Cave

Zhang Zhixuan had just returned from Qingxuan Sect, and before he had a few days to rest and recuperate, someone sent a letter from Lushan County, and a big thing happened in the family territory again.

Because of the recent heavy rains, a river near Lushan changed its course, and it actually washed away a mountain and flooded a cave hundreds of miles away from Tiantai Peak.

Unexpectedly, deep in this cave, there was a huge snake cave, and countless poisonous snakes were washed away by the flood and then spread to Lushan County.

Taicheng County is located on the edge of the southern wilderness, and there are countless snakes and insects. Although local mortals have experience in dealing with snakes and insects, dozens of people were killed and injured in a very short time.

The family received information from Lushan County and immediately sent monks to the farmland near Lushan County to start killing various poisonous snakes. They also sent out a communication talisman to notify several nearby vassal families and let them deal with it carefully.

This large-scale snake disaster immediately aroused the vigilance of the clan leader and others. He asked the elders of the ninth level of Qi training to guard the mountain, and he took Zhang Zhixuan, Qingchan and three foundation-building monks to the cave where countless poisonous snakes were hidden.

When the three came to this cave, Zhang Zhixuan suddenly felt familiar.

This desolate cave was the cave where Zhang Zhixuan fought for the first time and killed the man in black.

Until now, Zhang Zhixuan still can't forget the battle of that year. He still remembers how panicked he was back then. He fled into this cave in a panic and used the talisman given by the clan leader to defeat his opponent and escape back to Lushan.

"It turns out that there are countless poisonous snakes hidden deep in this cave. Fortunately, I didn't go deep into the cave at that time. Otherwise, in such a cave of thousands of snakes, even if I am already a cultivator, I would probably die without a burial place." Zhang Zhixuan thought about it with relief, carefully observed the terrain inside and said: "Although many poisonous snakes were washed away, after the rainstorm, the river water receded, and there are probably many poisonous snakes in this snake cave. This hidden danger still needs to be solved. I heard that there was a third-level monster here in the past, but it was killed by Tairen Patriarch. I didn't expect that after hundreds of years, this place would become a hidden danger to the family again." The clan leader nodded He said: "Because of the heavy rains for several days, the terrain here has changed. This hill was even washed away by the flood. Now the river has changed its course. The snake cave is almost connected to the river. It is not convenient for us to fight in the water even if we are in the foundation-building period. We should gather people to block the connection between the snake cave and the river, and then find a way to drain the water in the snake cave, and then solve this hidden danger."

After discussing it for a while, they finally adopted the method of the clan leader and did not take risks in the snake cave. After all, they were all the most important monks in the family. Once they were lost in the water, the loss of the family would be irreversible. It is better to take steady steps.

After the three returned to Lushan, they immediately mobilized 20 family monks, 10 people from several vassal families, and then more than 1,000 soldiers from Lushan County to come to the Ten Thousand Snake Cave together.

Under Zhang Zhixuan's planning and the command of thirty Qi training monks, they pushed wheelbarrows and dumped cartloads of rocks into the river. After more than 20 days of hard work, they blocked the connection between the Ten Thousand Snake Cave and the river.

In this process, more than a few hundred people were bitten by poisonous snakes, and even more than a dozen Qi training monks were bitten.

Fortunately, Zhang Zhixuan prepared a lot of detoxification pills. With timely treatment, only a few dozen mortals were lost.

Qi training monks have magic power to protect themselves, and their physical strength is far superior to that of mortals. Their ability to resist poison is several times that of mortals. Although many people were poisoned, as long as they were treated in time, they all survived without losing a single person.

After blocking the river, Zhang Zhixuan and others led the Qi training monks to use magic to empty the water in the Ten Thousand Snake Cave day and night.

After more than ten days, when the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave was already pitch black and no water could be seen, Zhang Zhixuan immediately sent Qi training monks to lead mortals to cut down trees on the mountain, prepare a large amount of wood and dry the wood.

In this way, two or three months later, more than a hundred people were bitten to death or injured by poisonous snakes, and even one of the Zhang family's Qi training monks was killed.

At this time, countless wood had been piled up outside the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave.

After making all preparations, Zhang Zhixuan and his men, with Qi training monks, threw bundles of wood into the depths of the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave, and then used the Samadhi True Fire to ignite all the wood.

The rolling fire ignited in the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave. In the past few months, Zhang Zhixuan and his men had cut down hundreds of thousands of stones of wood.

These hundreds of thousands of stones of wood were ignited, and the sky-high fire actually burned the rocks of the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave. The flames released by the raging fire also burned the sky red. Even in the night sky, the fire near the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave seemed like daylight.

The fire carried thick smoke and rushed into the sky hundreds of feet high. In Lushan County hundreds of miles away, the black smoke could be clearly seen.

Countless poisonous snakes were burned to charcoal on the spot, and a strong smell of barbecue could even be smelled more than ten miles away.

Although the fire killed countless poisonous snakes, Zhang Zhixuan and the other two outside the Ten Thousand Snake Cave did not dare to be careless.

In a place like the Southern Wilderness, as long as there is a snake cave, there must be snake monsters.

Zhang Zhixuan had seen a similar situation once in the Black Python Mountain.

Soon, seven or eight red lights jumped out of the flames, and with a slight bounce of the body, they could bounce more than ten feet high and rushed towards Zhang Zhixuan and the other two who were suspended in the air.

In the dark night sky, these seven or eight red lights were very conspicuous.

The clan leader has lived in Taicheng County for many years and knows the monsters in the Southern Wilds best. He warned after just one look.

"Be careful, it's a fire-spotted snake. This poisonous snake is a second-level medium-grade monster. It is not only highly poisonous, but also uses fire-attributed spells."

Zhang Zhixuan and the other two have already established their foundations. Even Qingchan, who has the weakest cultivation, has several third-level magic tools on her body. Although she is less experienced, her magical powers are greater than when Zhang Zhixuan just established his foundation.

Several people took out their flying swords and easily cut the fire-spotted snakes into two sections.

After killing the fire-spotted snakes, there was no movement in the Ten Thousand Snake Cave for a long time, but Zhang Zhixuan and the other two knew that things would not be so simple.

According to their experience in the Southern Wilds, a snake cave with so many poisonous snakes must have a third-level monster in it.

You know, after the flood rushed into the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, the scattered poisonous snakes could actually harm Lushan County hundreds of miles away. How could such a large number of poisonous snakes be so simple?

Zhang Zhixuan and the other two waited patiently for seven or eight days. When the raging fire was completely extinguished and there was no movement in the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes, the three decided to enter the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes to find out what was going on.
