Chapter 19: Chapter 17 Mirror Lake Snake Demon_3
After Ye Chen had mastered the Cross Rapid-Kill Sword Skills, he compared this set of swordsmanship with the Fierce Light Sword Skills and Torrential Rain Sword Skills, and in one fell swoop, he advanced the third move of the Torrential Rain Sword Skills to Minor Accomplishment.
The Torrential Rain Sword Skills, one of the most powerful Yellow Class Martial Skills of intermediate grade, rumored to be an incomplete version of a high-grade Yellow Class Martial Skill, became even more formidable in Ye Chen's hands.
Once he reached Minor Accomplishment in the third move, Ye Chen felt that its power could even surpass many high-grade Yellow Class Martial Skills.
Indeed, if the complete version of the Torrential Rain Sword Skills were compared among the high-grade Yellow Class Martial Skills, it would likely stand out as one of the best!
With this major breakthrough in his swordsmanship and his continued cultivation during this period, Ye Chen's Realm at the fifth layer of True Qi became more solid.
He even cultivated the thirty-third Meridian Wheel of the 'Meridian Refining Art' from the first layer of the Primordial Star Scripture to the thirtieth, just one step away from fully mastering the Meridian Refining Art.
Now, Ye Chen's full strength, when unleashed, was even stronger than Lin Jing's, making him the undisputed leader of the five-person squad!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
During the crucial moment of his practice in the woods, the five great True Qi Vortices within Ye Chen's body suddenly shook, and the thirty meridians of the thirty-three Meridian Wheels sprang open. In an instant, myriad swords rained down explosively.
Wherever the sword rain passed, trees burst apart!
With a "swoosh," his sword returned to its sheath, and Ye Chen, looking at the devastated forest with its burst trees and deep Sword Marks, nodded slightly.
On Ye Chen's handsome face, well-defined lines showed a maturity and a carefree spirit that belied his age.
The breeze blew softly, and Lin Jing, watching Ye Chen approach her, was even momentarily mesmerized.
It was not until Ye Chen walked up to her that the strong scent of masculinity caused her heart to panic and race "thump, thump, thump."
Taking a deep breath, Lin Jing managed to suppress her suddenly racing heart.
She looked up at Ye Chen, her pretty face blushing slightly, "Ye Chen, how is your cultivation going?"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Sister Lin Jing, maybe we could try fighting that 'Silver-Patterned Snake Demon' once more."
"Ah!" Lin Jing's rosy little mouth opened slightly, instantly understanding Ye Chen's implication, "Ye Chen, are you suggesting that we go to Mirror Lake to fight the Snake Demon again?"
Seeing Ye Chen nod, Lin Jing's eyes suddenly sparkled with excitement, "Having trained for several more days, I've been eager to battle that Snake Demon once again!"
"Good, then let's call Hong Man and the others, and set out to Mirror Lake to confront the Snake Demon!"
...
Mirror Lake, located deep within the Silent Ridge area of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, is a large lake.
The vast lake, covering several hundred acres, is hidden among lofty mountains and ridges, and its surface is as tranquil as a mirror, hardly ever touched by the wind.
"Mirror Lake, we've returned to Mirror Lake at last."
Looking at the huge and tranquil lake before them, Zhou Mo, Hong Man, and Fang Shan all had unmistakably excited expressions in their eyes.
The thought of battling the Snake Demon once more, and the great possibility of hunting it to obtain the "innate snake gall," filled them with a surge of excitement.
"Ye Chen." Lin Jing's beautiful eyes turned toward Ye Chen, also revealing some restlessness.
Ye Chen nodded, "Let's take action."
"Okay."
By the lake, Hong Man and Fang Shan spread out the predried grass they had prepared, and as they lit the grass, a pungent odor wafted through the air, accompanied by billowing smoke.
No sooner had the thick smoke appeared than it seemed to be drawn toward the surface of Mirror Lake, drifting across the water.
In a moment, a large area of the lake was covered in a haze of smoke.
Ye Chen, Lin Jing, and the others stood by the lake, silently watching the surface, waiting quietly.
It wasn't long before the once placid lake suddenly began to surge with waves. Then, accompanied by the sound of splashing water, a giant snake, thicker than a water barrel, with a long triangular head, emerged from the water.
This massive snake was covered in green scales, each large as a fist, and even more astonishing were the silver patterns running along these scales, shimmering with a dazzling silver light.
The Silver-Patterned Snake Demon.
This was exactly the target Ye Chen and his companions had come to hunt, a peak sixth-level Demon Beast, the Silver-Patterned Snake Demon!
