How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 136 - 0: Numerous Calculations
Chapter 136: Chapter 0136: Numerous Calculations
Chen Yu’s voluntary participation made Yi Yunfei and Senior Sister Yi ecstatic.
It felt like just as they were getting drowsy, someone came to offer a pillow—how perfect!
Outside the snake lair, although they harbored murderous intentions towards Chen Yu, they hesitated to act.
Firstly, the three sects were allied against the Bone Demon Palace, which made internal killing inappropriate and potentially scandalous.
Secondly, the open terrain outside made it challenging to deal with Chen Yu, who possessed the strength of a True Disciple, making the possibility of success low.
But they never expected Chen Yu would voluntarily join them.
Just then.
After a brief surge of happiness, Yi Yunfei and Senior Sister Yi regained some composure.
Was such good fortune even possible?
Was Chen Yu a fool?
Yi Yunfei didn’t think so; during several confrontations, both overt and covert, he had never managed to outdo Chen Yu, who instead thrived.
“Could there be some trickery here?”
Yi Yunfei and Senior Sister Yi secretly communicated through transmitted messages.
“Yes, indeed, it’s abnormal. Let’s not act rashly for the moment. But, as long as we’re sure he’s alone, it would be easy to deal with him.”
Senior Sister Yi nodded slightly.
The two decided they would observe more before making any decisions once they entered deeper into the snake lair.
There were rumors that Chen Yu was still alive after being pursued by Demon Clown and others, which was no simple feat.
Chen Yu followed Yi Yunfei and his group into the snake lair with a smile that was not quite a smile.
“Having this group as a shield and aiming to kill the Snake King could actually be feasible. If I can use the dangers inside the snake lair to eliminate Yi Yunfei, my nemesis, that would be killing two birds with one stone.”
Chen Yu calculated in his heart.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
As soon as they entered the snake lair, venomous snakes frequently sprang out from all around, highly aggressive.
The space inside the snake lair was cramped, leaving little room for avoidance and combat.
Senior Sister Yi and Yi Yunfei, along with the disciples of the Water Moon Sect, looked after each other, dealing with the vicious snakes that attacked from time to time, ignoring Chen Yu.
Chen Yu, however, was leisurely.
Holding the Xuan Heavy Sword, the seemingly cumbersome weapon moved as lightly as the wind, cutting the approaching vicious snakes into two before they could even get close.
Even the ordinary Organ Refining Stage vicious snakes were neatly bisected.
“This lad, when did he advance to the Mid-stage of Refining, surpassing peers in strength?”
Yi Yunfei was secretly alarmed.
They had intentionally ignored Chen Yu, wanting to gauge his strength, and the result was somewhat unexpected.
In fact.
Chen Yu was intentionally showcasing some of his skills to make the people from the Water Moon Sect wary, ensuring they wouldn’t turn against him too quickly.
After all.
He still needed these people to lead the way, especially Senior Sister Yi, who seemed to have a deep understanding of snakes and was quite confident about advancing through the snake lair.
Before long.
The group gradually disappeared at the entrance of the snake lair.
Neither Chen Yu nor Yi Yunfei and the others noticed anything amiss.
At that moment.
Near the snake lair, the female disciple of the Water Moon Sect who was left to keep watch had vanished without a trace, leaving only a pool of blood.
…
Inside the snake lair, the people from the Water Moon Sect steadily advanced.
Chen Yu followed silently.
At first, the Water Moon Sect people wanted to test his capabilities, some of their methods were restrained.
But afterward.
The number of vicious snakes that sprang up kept increasing, with a higher proportion of Organ Refining Stage ones.
Not all disciples of the Water Moon Sect could kill the general Organ Refining Stage vicious snakes in one hit like Chen Yu.
Once their numbers overwhelmed them, several female disciples from the Water Moon Sect immediately panicked.
“Ah!”
A female disciple of the Water Moon Sect got bitten by a venomous snake and groaned.
However.
The Water Moon Sect was prepared, swiftly protecting the bitten disciple while administering a snakebite antidote.
“Quite well-prepared,” Chen Yu chuckled.
Gradually.
The number of attacking vicious snakes grew, putting significant pressure on the members of the Water Moon Sect.
Afterward.
It became quite common for the female disciples to get bitten, but with antidotes at hand, it wasn’t a big problem.
“Why hasn’t this lad been bitten yet?”
Yi Yunfei secretly resented.
He had been waiting for Chen Yu to be bitten by the venomous snakes, hoping to refuse him the antidote or even take the opportunity to attack.
Senior Sister Yi’s face also flashed an unusual expression.
It should be noted.
Their group of five or six was looking after each other, almost forming a battle formation to fend off the swarm of snakes.
Yet Chen Yu was on his own and had remained unharmed.
Until a specific moment.
Chen Yu deliberately let a few venomous snakes bite him several times.
Ding!
The result was that the snake bites, including one from an Organ Refining Stage vicious snake, could not pierce his skin.
“This guy…”
The smile on Yi Yunfei’s face froze. He hadn’t anticipated that Chen Yu’s physical defense would be so formidable.
It seemed.
Trying to use the ordinary snake swarm to harm Chen Yu was not very feasible.
“Senior Sister Yi, we can’t hold on much longer!”
Several female disciples of the Water Moon Sect pleaded, all transmitting messages.
Senior Sister Yi, feeling helpless, retrieved several packets of medicinal powder from her storage bag and handed each person one.
The disciples showed relief.
Including Yi Yunfei, everyone covered themselves with a layer of white medicinal powder.
As a result.
Once the powder was sprinkled on their bodies, the surrounding swarm of snakes retreated.
Afterward, the vicious snakes below the Organ Refining Stage level avoided them, at least not getting closer than ten meters.
Only the Organ Refining Stage snakes were less affected and continued to attack from time to time.
Even so, their attacks became somewhat less fierce.
“Indeed…”
Chen Yu wasn’t surprised.
He had previously wondered why the people from the Water Moon Sect dared to advance into this snake lair.
Even though they were confident that the Snake King was in its breeding period, dealing with the overwhelming armyyczious snakes was still daunting.
Later, he realized that this Senior Sister Yi was a snake expert.
That was exactly it.
Chen Yu had agreed to use himself as bait and join the team of the Water Moon Sect.
However,
Senior Sister Yi of the Water Moon Sect did not give Chen Yu the medicine powder, slightly apologetic, “This medicine powder is only enough for the six of us.”
Chen Yu did not mind.
The medicine powder worked in a certain range around the body.
He didn’t have any medicine powder, but he could stick close to the female disciples of the Water Moon Sect.
Thus, he could still enjoy the effects of the medicine powder.
Seeing Chen Yu sticking to the female disciples of the Water Moon Sect like a pesky plaster, Senior Sister Yi and Yi Yunfei’s faces twitched slightly.
Several female disciples of the Water Moon Sect showed disgust.
They wanted to move away, but their movement technique was far slower than that of Chen Yu.
They couldn’t shake him off!
In such a perilous environment, if they diverted their attention because of this, they could easily be bitten and entangled by the surrounding snakes.
Reluctantly,

The female disciples of the Water Moon Sect had no choice but to let Chen Yu cling close to them.
“Hehe, with beauties for company, slaying snakes and exorcising evils is not boring at all…”
Chen Yu, smelling the fragrance of the women beside him, wore a smile on his face.
Little did he know,
Senior Sister Yi and Yi Yunfei were grinding their teeth in hatred towards him.
They had tried many strategies but were unable to deal with Chen Yu; instead, he stuck to them like a pesky plaster and took advantage of the female disciples.
“Senior Sister Yi, it seems that conventional methods are not enough to handle this person. He wants the Snake King’s Gallbladder, doesn’t he? Let’s help him kill the Snake King then!”
Yi Yunfei communicated through a whisper, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
“That’s the only option.”
Senior Sister Yi had been harboring a killing intent that had been brewing for a while.
Yet,
Chen Yu remained calm and collected, never falling into danger, thriving better than everyone else.
“Brother Chen, after a bit more travelling, we will reach the cave where the Snake King resides. At that time, we will uphold our agreement and help you slay the Snake King to obtain the Snake King’s Gallbladder.”
Senior Sister Yi said with a smile.
“No problem! With you all present, confronting the Snake King will definitely be feasible.”
Chen Yu’s face lit up with joy.
“However, let me say the ugly part up front!”
Senior Sister Yi changed her tone, speaking earnestly, “The Snake King is at the Postnatal Level of Qi Transformation, and even during its spawning period, it is not something we can handle easily. We only promise to ‘help’ you slay it, but when the time comes, Junior Brother Chen, you will also need to act and must be the main force.”
Senior Sister Yi emphasized the word “help” heavily.
The meaning was clear.
Chen Yu had to actively participate in the front line, not to sit back and reap the benefits.
“Fine! But as two individuals at the Late Stage of Organ Refining, you also need to take a main role. That half of the Mysterious Water Moth Lotus from me isn’t easily earned, its value far exceeds a single Snake King.”
Chen Yu nodded.
After reaching an agreement, the group quickened their pace.
However, as they approached the last stretch of road near the Snake King’s cave, the resistance they met was astonishing.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Vicious snakes as thick as a grown man’s arm constantly sprang out, their strength at least comparable to the Organ Refining Stage.
Seeing,
The number of these Organ Refining Stage vicious snakes reaching dozens, the group faced an unprecedented crisis.
Chen Yu’s spine sweated coldly.
If they were to be surrounded and entangled by dozens of Organ Refining Stage vicious snakes, even with his Copper Statue Technique’s defense, he would not die but would certainly lose a layer of skin.
At a critical moment,
Chen Yu secretly held a Yin Fire Pearl in one hand.
He did this just as a precaution, believing that the Water Moon Sect would surely have measures.
Indeed.
Senior Sister Yi took out a pinch of pale blue crystal powder and scattered it around.
Whoosh!
As soon as the crystal powder hit the ground, the temperature around plummeted, instantly forming a layer of frost on the ground, with cold currents sweeping through.
The mass of snakes shivered from the cold, unaccustomed to the sudden drop in temperature, and their offensive sharply decreased.
Fear of cold is a snake’s natural instinct.
Although these were abnormal vicious snakes, Senior Sister Yi’s crystal powder was no ordinary object.
Taking advantage of the stiff and slow-moving snakes,
The group intensified their attacks on the surrounding snakes.
Among them, Yi Yunfei, under tremendous pressure, threw out a few black canisters.
Boom!
A swathe of black-green eerie flames erupted around them, causing the mass of snakes to emit a series of piercing, miserable screams.
This was the Bone Scale Fire unique to the Bone Demon Palace.
Chen Yu was not surprised, as it was quite normal for the Water Moon Sect, with its strength, to obtain such war trophies on the battlefield.
Soon, the snakes that were dead retreated.
The group continued forward for a while.
“This should be the place!”
Senior Sister Yi pointed to a chilling cave in front with a foul wind and cold air rushing toward them.
The group approached cautiously and slowly.
According to the agreement,
Chen Yu followed Senior Sister Yi and Yi Yunfei, walking at the forefront.
Entering the entrance of the cave,
A dark-spotted giant snake, about six or seven zhang long and as thick as a man’s waist, lay in a dark corner deep within the cave, motionless.
“Snake King? So big…”
The female disciples shivered one after another.
“That’s just the skin shed by the Snake King.”
Senior Sister Yi shook her head.
Huh?
Chen Yu and Yi Yunfei took a closer look, and indeed, the “Snake King” in front of them was just a shell, a dead thing without any reaction.
The group surveyed the environment inside the Snake King’s cave.
In a certain part of the cave’s stone wall, there was a layer of deep black crystal.
In the corner where the Snake King lay, there was also a small pond.
Above the pond, there was a milk-white stalactite brewing a drop of crystal-clear, jade-like liquid.
Drip-drop!
The pond contained a small pool of crystal-clear liquid, which looked pure and flawless.
“Heavenly Bamboo Shoot Liquid! And Black Jade Crystal… Indeed, it’s here!”
Senior Sister Yi’s face showed joy.
Yi Yunfei looked at the pool of liquid and the layer of black crystal on the stone wall, extremely delighted.
“Black Jade Crystal, isn’t that the legendary main material used to forge High Grade Treasures, a Spiritual Ore extinct in the sect realm of Chu Country. ‘Heavenly Bamboo Shoot Liquid,’ it is said, gathers the essence of heaven and earth to form a mysterious liquid. Consuming just a small sip can instantly restore vitality and ordinary injuries, providing a precious spiritual liquid crucial for survival and turning the tides at critical moments.”
Chen Yu was amazed.
These two items in front of him were far more valuable than the Snake King’s Gallbladder that he had intended to hunt!
