Wei Yang stayed for another two days before setting off again, beginning his journey back to Central Plains. Of course, before leaving, he left behind that Purple Azure Supre Pill as the sect’s treasury’s ultimate treasure.
At the sa ti, he also picked out a few cultivation techniques and Dou Techniques from what he had gathered and handed them over to Xiao Ding. There were both Xuan Grade and Earth Grade cultivation techniques among them.
He had killed so many Dou Zong and Dou Zun experts that his collection of these items was naturally enormous. Just picking out a handful was already a huge pile. He also cleared out a good number of fifth- and sixth-grade pills that he didn’t need, tossing all of them to Xiao Ding as well.
That made Xiao Ding and the other old fellows grin so wide their eyes nearly disappeared. All these miscellaneous items that looked like trash in Wei Yang’s eyes were, to them, priceless treasures. Any one of them could be taken out and sold for a small fortune.
"You’re just like Xiao Yan—you barely co back, and when you do, you’re gone again in a few days."
"No choice, I still have so matters to deal with."
"Central Plains, huh? Go on, go. You’re all Heaven’s Chosen; you shouldn’t be wasting your ti stuck in a small place like the Jia Ma Empire."
"That’s right. We old geezers will take care of things at ho, no need to worry."
"Alright, I’m going. Once I clear all the obstacles over there, you can co to Central Plains to have so fun too."
"Haha, then we’ll be waiting for the day when you and Xiao Yan both stand at the peak of the continent!"
—
At the border of Central Plains, where the Western and Southern Regions t.
An endless range of towering mountains stretched across the land like an imnse scroll slowly unrolled upon the earth, extending as far as the eye could see. Though this range was said to span a million peaks, in truth, its vastness was far beyond that number.
Wei Yang strode through the void, his gaze and spiritual sense sweeping occasionally over the mountains below.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
Each seemingly casual step left behind countless afterimages in the air. Before the echoes of one shadow faded, his true body had already vanished far into the distance.
Walking among drifting clouds, he looked down at the world beneath his feet—the endless ridges and peaks, so steep and jagged, others majestic and rolling, dotted with strange rocks and towering cliffs.
"Where exactly is that Ancient Heaven Serpent’s skeleton?" Wei Yang murmured softly, frowning.
This ti, he had deliberately set out from the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, making his way toward the edge of Central Plains and into this vast stretch of a million mountains. His purpose: to find the remains of that Ancient Heaven Serpent.
"If I rember right, the route from Heavenly Serpent Mansion to Central Plains passes through this mountain range. So in the original story, when Qing Lin first arrived in Central Plains and stumbled into an ancient mountain range, discovering that ancient serpent skeleton—then it should have been right here," Wei Yang thought to himself.
However, after nearly a month of searching, he still hadn’t found a single clue. He couldn’t help but look into the distance. Compared to this boundless mountain range, he felt so insignificant—like a single needle dropped into the sea.
How long would it take to find sothing here?
A headache began to creep in. It was truly like searching for a needle in a haystack! But for Wei Yang to give up now? He was unwilling.
After all, he had already co this far—and spent so much ti searching. Besides, that Ancient Heaven Serpent Skeleton would be of imnse help to Qing Lin.
Qing Lin wasn’t only born with the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, but also carried the bloodline of the Snake-People Clan. The Ancient Heaven Serpent—one of the two royal bloodline serpent beasts of ancient tis—was said to possess the power to destroy heaven and earth.
It was a magical beast on the sa level as the Ancient Void Dragon and the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix. However, the number of Heavenly Serpents was far fewer than those two races. Thus, they had already gone extinct in ancient tis—eting the sa fate as the Hou.
Their small numbers had dood their extinction. In the ancient era, the two supre serpent bloodlines were the Ancient Heaven Serpent and the Heaven Swallowing Python. All modern serpent-type magical beasts were descendants of these two ancestral bloodlines.
Even the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python originated from them. Now, both ancestral serpent species—the Ancient Heaven Serpent and the Heaven Swallowing Python—were long extinct.
Oh, though in this era, dusa had luckily awakened a trace of that bloodline, hers was only a Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, not a true Nine-Colored one.
According to the original story, the Ancient Heaven Serpent Skeleton that Qing Lin found was a mutated one—a Nine-Headed Serpent!
Hissssss!
"That mutated Ancient Heaven Serpent Skeleton is truly a rare treasure! Its value far surpasses even that of an Ancient Dou Saint’s skeleton or an Ancient Sky Phoenix’s remains combined!"
"Whether it’s the bones or the lingering soul, both would be of enormous benefit to Qing Lin."
Wei Yang exhaled softly.
Without the Ancient Heaven Serpent, Qing Lin was incomplete. No matter how mysterious the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils might be, it still couldn’t compare to one of the two ancestral serpents of ancient tis.
Shaking his head, Wei Yang muttered, "Keep searching."
He had already made up his mind. Even if he had to turn this endless mountain range upside down, he was determined to find that mutated Ancient Heaven Serpent Skeleton. Otherwise, he would not give up!
Another ten days passed.
Wei Yang continued searching across the vast, continuous mountain range.
With his Ban Sheng cultivation and mid-stage Heaven Realm soul strength, his soul perception was incredibly sharp. He barely needed to stop and search carefully — just sweeping his senses across the land as he moved was enough to reveal everything within range.
Through this carpet-like search, although he still hadn’t found the serpent’s skeleton, he had discovered quite a few high-tier dicinal herbs instead.
This was a place rarely visited by people, deep within the endless mountains, where countless rare and ancient herbs had grown untouched for ages.
He even found a treasure similar to Core Soul Marrow, capable of helping soone break through to the Spirit Realm in soul cultivation. That discovery made Wei Yang chuckle helplessly. It was, at least, an unexpected reward — a small consolation for his efforts.
After all, at his level, there weren’t many treasures left in the world that could truly catch his eye. Sothing that could enhance the soul, however — that was rare indeed, and just barely worthy of his attention. Then, suddenly—
"Hm?"
Wei Yang’s fast-moving figure abruptly halted.
Looking down below, he slightly raised an eyebrow. It was a deep, shadowy valley. Countless old vines wove across the place, coiling along the sheer cliffs that surrounded it. The entire scene looked raw and primal.
But what truly caught his attention was that within this valley — only about a hundred li across — lived countless snakes. Just a casual sweep of his perception made Wei Yang’s scalp tingle, nearly triggering trypophobia.
That valley below... was a nest of serpents!
There were snakes everywhere — dense clusters of them, large and small, of every color imaginable. So were coiled together, so sleeping, so slithering lazily, so playing about. Everywhere he looked — snakes, nothing but snakes!
It was an ocean of serpents.
Compared to this, the so-called Ten Thousand Snake Cavern was nothing but a joke!
The number of snakes here wasn’t just in the millions — it was likely in the tens of millions. Even with Wei Yang’s perception, it was impossible to count how many there truly were.
If an ordinary woman were to see this scene, even if she were a Dou Zun powerhouse, she would probably scream in horror, turn around, and flee as far as she could. It wasn’t about strength — it was pure instinct.
Even Wei Yang, at first glance, subconsciously felt a chill crawl up his scalp, the urge to turn away rising unbidden. He slowly descended, landing above the Serpent Valley.
Hissss~
The mont he appeared, it was like a boulder had dropped into a still lake, sending ripples everywhere. Countless snakes were startled. They all lifted their heads at once, flicking their tongues, emitting a chorus of eerie hisses.
To this sudden intruder who had entered their nest, they expressed their warning and hostility. Within those cold, glimring serpent eyes flickered hints of bloodlust and hunger.
The flickering tongues moved faster, the hissing sharper — as if they wanted to tear apart and devour this trespasser. A thick, foul stench filled the air, forcing Wei Yang to hold his breath and frown.
Wisps of faint green mist rose from the valley — poison fog, born from the combined venomous aura of countless serpents.
Chi chi—
Droplets of venom dripped from the mouths of so snakes, sizzling and corroding even the air itself as they fell.
"So disgusting." Wei Yang frowned deeply.
Even for him, this scene was a bit too much to handle.
