Urban's Fury: The War Dragon God-Chapter 1451: The Endpoint
Chen Xiaoyue moved like a leaf in the wind, quickly entering the battlefield. As the Human-faced Demon Spider let out a low growl, she directly drew out the Green Blade Sword.
"Hurricane Tornado."
Chen Xiaoyue unleashed her ultimate move, the air on the Green Blade Sword converged into a hurricane, the airflow dispersing the surrounding stench.
But it seemed this Hurricane Tornado veered off course, flying out not far before suddenly turning upward into the sky.
The Human-faced Demon Spider waved its sharp blades, and with a body already missing a leg, it crouched down, ready to spring up. Just then, the airborne Hurricane Tornado dived down, directly enveloping the Human-faced Demon Spider's spine.
Countless palm-sized wind blades continuously sliced the Demon Spider's flesh, instantly leaving it a bloody mess.
But this was just the beginning.
Xiang Tian ran forward, transforming the spear he had previously seized from the Demon Puppet into a javelin, throwing it again with the Divine Power innate to the Xiang Family. The spear sliced through the air like a shooting star, arriving instantly.
The Human-faced Demon Spider spotted the incoming spear but had no way to evade.
Chen Xiaoyue's Hurricane Tornado pinned it firmly to the ground, and having lost one arm in the recent battle with the Two-headed Snake, it was left with one remaining arm that tried to block but couldn't withstand the strike.
Poof.
The spear instantly pierced through the upper body of the Human-faced Demon Spider, inflicting another serious injury.
Yet as the top Maze Hunter in the Great Maze, the Human-faced Demon Spider's life force was remarkably tenacious. At this moment, Li Feng's Fish Intestine Sword flew in, controlled by him.
Just after the Human-faced Demon Spider was struck by Xiang Tian's spear, the Fish Intestine Sword appeared like a venomous snake sniping from the shadows, directly piercing through the Demon Spider's throat.
The Human-faced Demon Spider suffered successive heavy blows but did not collapse, and Chen Xiaoyue charged up close.
Sword Qi raged from her Green Blade Sword, and the Human-faced Demon Spider, now beyond saving, finally let out a mournful howl and its body shattered, collapsing.
Looking at the fall of the two Great Maze Hunters, Li Feng and the others scored a massive windfall as bystanders.
"Such a big Demon Core, this is quite a profit."
The heart of the Human-faced Demon Spider was a Demon Core, as large as a baby's fist, resembling a Cultivator's Golden Core.
Had the Human-faced Demon Spider not been trapped along the way, fought numerous battles with the Demon Puppet, and been embroiled in a life-and-death struggle with the Two-headed Snake, Li Feng and the others would have had no chance against it.
"This Two-headed Snake's Demon Core isn't small either, and this one even has a faint fragrance."
Mo Fan also picked up the Demon Core of the Two-headed Snake, holding it like a luminous pearl, appearing priceless.
Demon Cores are naturally the most valuable spoils of war, conveniently sized for transport, quickly pocketed.
After speaking, Mo Fan looked at the severed head of the Two-headed Snake lying nearby.
"Do you think, with the Two-headed Snake's two heads, there might be another Demon Core there?"
Mo Fan said this and walked towards the severed snake head.
But just as Mo Fan approached, the severed snake head abruptly opened its eyes, its cold gaze sweeping over Mo Fan, sending a shiver through him.
Then the severed head opened its bloody mouth towards Mo Fan, and razor-sharp snake teeth shot out venom.
A hair's breadth from disaster.
Li Feng darted forward and kicked the snake head away.
Splash.
Venom landed beside Mo Fan, instantly producing a large cloud of white smoke, showing the corrosiveness of the toxin.
Mo Fan looked with lingering fear at the hole corroded beside him, patting his chest.
"Almost scared me to death."
Li Feng looked at the kicked snake head, stepped to Mo Fan's side, and extended his hand.
"Be careful, the life force of serpents is beyond imagination, even a severed head might not die immediately."
Mo Fan stood up and nodded: "Thanks, I owe you one again."
Hiss.
At that moment, a hissing sound was heard close to their ears.
Li Feng looked towards the sound and saw the snakes that had spilled from the cracked eggs during combat hadn't died; although prematurely hatched, they were lively.
"So many snakes, and they're all so large."
Even those only now hatched snakes were three to five meters long, and their bodies as thick as an arm, in great numbers.
Moreover, many uneffected eggs were also cracking, audible evidence that with the Two-headed Snake's death, the snake eggs in the nest were hatching.
"Let's go."
Initially, they wanted to search the Snake Nest for treasure, but the present situation made staying impossible.
Chen Xiaoyue also felt trepidation; the dense snake swarm was even more horrifying than the giant Two-headed Snake.
Li Feng and company quickly left the Snake Nest, reaching the passage entrance, and looked back to see the newly hatched snakes starting to consume the Two-headed Snake's corpse.
Apparently, with the Two-headed Snake's demise, a new Overlord would be born among the young serpents.
After Li Feng and others left, in a hardly noticeable corner, an insect fluttered its wings and flew towards the passage where Li Feng and the others vanished.
After walking for an unknown duration, with a break midway, they soon reached another end.
Li Feng and company exited the passage, standing on a rocky platform.
"Look, isn't that someone from Wanfo Temple?"
Li Feng also noticed a group of bald monks on a distant platform passage, identified as Wanfo Temple's Nine Arhats.
Xiang Tian glanced to one side: "Not only Wanfo Temple's people, look over there."
"There are people from the Supreme Academy."
Mo Fan was also surprised.
They originally opted for different passages, yet traveling in circles brought them back together.
"This Great Maze is far from what we imagined; we seem to be traversing a flat maze, but actually, the maze might be circular."
Li Nianqing explained.
Li Feng nodded: "Yes, it should be a three-dimensional maze, and to pass through it, the middle passage is likely crucial."
Li Feng looked at the deep passage ahead, stretching downward and upward without a bottom visible; there was nowhere else to go, and other teams were appearing from neighboring passages.
This meant the start and endpoint are singular, and regardless of which route they took, ultimately they converge here.
Just like a globe, the start and endpoint are at the poles, while the maze they traversed was merely running a loop on the surface without entering Kunlun Void's inner layer.
Kunlun Void's inner layer might be through the empty middle passage.
"This passage?"
Mo Fan leaned over to take a look below, utterly void bottom, who knows what's there, perhaps an endless abyss.
"Surely jumping down isn't the answer. Nianqing, did the Great Elder not tell you how to leave this Great Maze?"
Li Nianqing shook her head.
"No, the Great Elder explained many things, but didn't mention here."
If this is the maze's exit, the Great Elder wouldn't omit it, yet the Elder didn't mention it.
Additionally, regarding the Great Maze, her knowledge was limited to Hunters and mechanisms, but routes and entrances, the Great Elder didn't describe in detail.
"Didn't mention it; if this isn't the end, where is the final exit?"
Li Feng asked, furrowing his brow.
