Chapter 563: Chapter 424: Yin Mountain Has Arrived! (4K+ Seeking Monthly Tickets)

As the Heavenly Pass Hook Snake gave its order, the demon leaped into the air, and over a hundred Hook Snakes that emerged from the Dragon Transformation Pool let out excited hisses, riding various demonic winds, soaring into the sky.

Above their heads was a several-mile-wide volcanic crater spewing hot black smoke; the surrounding mountain walls glowed like red-hot iron, reflecting a dazzling crimson, resembling a massive furnace fallen from the heavens.

Amidst them was Chen Yuan, whose blue triangular snake pupils gazed at the magma abyss below, akin to the Avici Hell, and his pupils slightly relaxed.

Everything was smooth; no unexpected occurrences or commotions took place, and there wasn’t even a demon checking the Dragon Transformation Pool. It seemed that the Hook Snake clan hadn’t realized their home was stolen!

He followed the group of Snake Demons all the way up to a large platform about three miles from the cave entrance. This platform, hewn from the mountain wall, turned out to be a plaza. Extending in all directions were various structures with features of the Demon Clan, resembling murals of Evil Ghosts, spread across the surrounding mountain walls.

The gaze swept across, seeing lanterns made of human skin as pale as paper hanging from eaves, bells crafted from various skulls hanging from corners, and a foreboding, bone-paved main hall. If examined closely, pairs of cold snake eyes shot from the window gaps within the buildings with a chilling gleam.

This was the world of Demons!

In the very center of the plaza stood a huge Hook Snake statue, winding and coiling, carved from volcanic rock. Before the snake head of the statue floated a suspended platform with Array fluctuations flickering, and below the statue stood numerous demonic shadows.

At this moment, the Heavenly Pass Demon General, draped in purple scales, with a human face, a pointed mouth, and double arms that sprouted purple-gold backward hooks, landed. After surveying the chaotic snake group behind, a hint of disdain and impatience flashed in his pupils,

"A group of uncultured beings, you’ve stayed in the Dragon Transformation Pool for so long, yet don’t know how to transform?"

The Hook Snakes at the back emitted a chaotic hissing sound, somewhat fearful of the Heavenly Pass Demon General. Then, with a series of scale glints, the gigantic snake bodies of the Hook Snakes coiled, expanded, and rapidly transformed into human shapes.

However, possibly limited by the purity of their bloodlines, these Snake Demons transformed differently. Some had snake-headed human forms, with a hooked tail at their backsides, robust limbs resembling an oversized humanoid lizard. Some had human faces with protruding fangs, some had unnaturally long necks, resembling floating-headed monsters... various grotesque and ghastly forms.

As for Chen Yuan, he adeptly wielded the art of transformation. However, for the sake of caution, he observed other Snake Demons’ transformations wanting to choose a standard form, but finding them all grotesque and disdainful. Therefore, he freely crafted a human face with blue scales.

The Heavenly Pass Hook Snake saw and found it agreeable, nodding and leading a group of "extremely grotesque" demonic shadows toward the statue.

At that moment, beneath the statue, there were hundreds of breath-varied demonic shadows, most similar to Chen Yuan’s selected Demon Soldiers.

"How about this batch?"

As Chen Yuan mingled with the group of demons approaching the giant statue, suddenly, the Hook Snake statue’s eyes abruptly opened, revealing white light. Shortly after, creaking sounds echoed, and its fierce head slightly turned, like a rumble of mountains, resounded from within.

The sinister white light from the pupils swept gradually onto Chen Yuan’s selected clansmen.

Chen Yuan, whose spirit had just relaxed a bit from the Dragon Transformation Pool, felt the white light shooting from the statue’s eyes, causing the Hooked Snake Essence Blood in his body to slightly jump, and his spirit jolted, quickly suppressing it.

In that instant, the white light that had just swept past him suddenly swung back, once again landing on him.

Then, with a booming sound, the massive Hook Snake statue moved, and its enormous ten-zhang sinister red-black snake head directly descended from above, extending towards Chen Yuan.

A pair of enormous eyes, shimmering with sinister white light, fixed steadily on Chen Yuan, emitting a powerful oppression comparable to a Half-step Dragon and Tiger!

"Hiss"

"Hou"

The surrounding Hook Snakes shrieked, swiftly scattering.

As for Chen Yuan, faced with this sudden change, his spirit tensed, and the domineering True Qi within him was subconsciously about to erupt but was forcibly restrained by him, keeping calm.

Role-playing as a demon, this task he was somewhat adept at.

In this scene, his blue pupils appropriately showed fright, followed by a sharp hiss, transforming into a ten-zhang entity!

The giant Hook Snake head circled around Chen Yuan’s fetal transformation-formed Hook Snake body. After over ten breaths, the light in its eyes lost interest, and with a rumbling, its head retracted.

"Great Ancestor Spirit, what is this? Is there a problem?"

The leading Heavenly Pass Hook Snake, also startled, now had a cautious demonic light.

"Nothing, thought there was another awakening of ancestor blood, a high-purity bloodline little guy this time. Seems this batch is worth looking at."

The statue called "Ancestor Spirit" spoke like muffled thunder, only saying the first half of the sentence with no interest in continuing the latter half, subsequently issuing a cold metal humn:

"Since everyone is here, prepare to set off!"

"The other side of Yin Mountain is urging again, otherwise, how could we select clans so hastily? You must know, in ancient times, our Hook Snake clan once called the wind and summoned the rain, reigning dominant, how could we have fallen under others now."
