Chapter 361: Chapter 361: The Priest Welcomes

The Snake-men of the Snake-man Clan’s territory all looked up to the sky, gazing at the green Divine Hammer illusion that enveloped the entire world, and let out exclamations of shock, "The Heavenly Collapse Divine Hammer! It’s the Heavenly Collapse Divine Hammer!"

"The Heavenly Collapse Divine Hammer is rumored to have been acquired by Lord Weii Gao’s great-grandfather, Lord Weii Feng, in the desert ruins hundreds of years ago, and with it, he had made a mighty name for himself in the wilderness, becoming the first and greatest warrior of our Snake-man Clan that year!" some of the Snake-man below recognized the green hammer held high above Weii Gao’s head and cried out in awe.

"The Heavenly Collapse Divine Hammer is rumored to be a Sixth Grade Divine Artifact. With it in hand, Lord Weii Gao, a Three-star Martial Monarch, could unleash the power of a Nine-star Martial Emperor!" another Snake-man exclaimed in shock.

"With the Divine Hammer out, let’s see if those of the Human Clan still dare to be arrogant!" a Snake-man pointed at the black figure in the void and shouted, his expression and demeanor as if the Divine Hammer was in his own hands.

"Ah!" The robust Snake-man warrior Weii Gao, who held the Heavenly Collapse Divine Hammer aloft, had an angry and ferocious look on his face, like an enraged beast, and let out a roaring roar. Then, the green Divine Hammer held high came crashing down violently.

As Weii Gao moved, the enormous Divine Hammer illusion that overshadowed the world thundered down towards Shi Feng below, like a colossal mountain, crashing towards him!

Shi Feng’s mouth curved into a disdainful smile, from a moment ago until now, he remained as before, still not giving the world-enveloping Divine Hammer illusion a single glance, and with a flick of his finger, a dot of a blood-colored glow was sent from his fingertip, shooting upwards into the sky.

"This move! It’s still this move! This Human Clan kid actually dares to be so presumptuous, daring to use this move to deal with Lord Weii Gao’s full-powered strike with the Divine Hammer!" Seeing Shi Feng’s continued disdain towards Weii Gao, anger immediately surfaced on the faces of some Snake-men below, indignantly saying, "Such disrespect towards our formidable Snake-man warriors; even if this Human Clan kid dies, he deserves it!"

"An arrogant and egotistical Human Clan kid, he’s going to die!"

"Die, Human Clan kid! Lord Weii Gao, kill him!"

The Snake-men of the clan shouted with all their might into the void, seemingly already envisioning the massive hammer’s illusion smashing down, crushing the arrogant Human Clan kid into a pulp.

Yet, what they saw next was that once again, faces in the Snake-man Clan’s territory were stricken with horror, and pairs of eyes suddenly bulged out, filled with disbelief. They saw the Divine Hammer’s illusion that covered the sky and furiously thundered down; it disappeared under the impact of that mere grain-of-rice-sized blood-colored glow!

Such a large illusion being extinguished by such a tiny glow made the scene seem utterly unreal.

Then, a series of astonished gazes all focused on the black figure in the void.

"This Human, so strong!"

"Who exactly is this Human? What is he doing in our Snake-man Clan’s territory?"

After witnessing Shi Feng’s strength, a sense of unease quietly began to stir within the hearts of the Snake-man Clan. Not long ago, a powerful force from the Dark Elf Clan had come to their territory, and now, another formidable warrior from the Human Clan had arrived, challenging their guardians and defeating their Great Commander Weii Gao.

Weii Gao still held that green heavy hammer in his hands, staring blankly at the black figure ahead, at that young and cold face. At this moment, looking at this person, a sense of powerlessness suddenly rose from Weii Gao’s heart. He had launched two attacks, with the last one being the strongest strike from the ancestral Heavenly Collapse Divine Hammer, yet it was so easily broken by this Human Clan youth.

Such a warrior, he was no longer able to stop.

"Weii Gao’s Heavenly Collapse Divine Hammer was so easily broken by this Human, could this Human really be the legendary Mad Demon Shi Feng!" At the entrance of the Priest Hall, the notable Snake-men there, looking at that black figure in the void, also began to discuss among themselves.

The power that Shi Feng had shown at this moment had increasingly convinced them that he was the one!

"How can this be, how did he become so strong! It’s only been a few months!" Zi Lin’s charming face also showed full of astonishment. In just a few months, he had grown strong enough to easily fend off a strike from a Nine-star Martial Emperor, such a growth rate was simply unheard of.

It wouldn’t be an overstatement to call it an unprecedented evil demon!

"Zi Lin, did you just say that before parting with Zi Ya, this person gave her a Fifth Grade Thunder Long Sword?" At that moment, the priest next to Zi Lin spoke up and asked.

Zi Lin snapped back to her senses upon the priest’s words, looked toward the priest beside her, and said, "Yes, when the fourth sister returned to the territory, she was holding a Fifth Grade Thunder Purple Sword. She told me herself that this sword was a gift from that young man."

"Oh!" the priest uttered, a flash of brilliance suddenly sparking in his eyes, he murmured, "Perhaps, our Snake-man Clan can be saved yet!"

"What does the Priest Lord mean?"

...

"Weii Gao, withdraw. You must not be rude to our Snake-man Clan’s distinguished guest!" Just at this moment, a hoarse and elderly voice rose up within the Territory of the Snake-man Clan, echoing throughout.

"This is... This is the voice of the High Priest."

"It’s the voice of the great High Priest."

"The High Priest has appeared!"

Upon hearing the ancient voice, the eyes of the Snake-men filled with reverence as they turned towards the direction of the Priest Hall, where a white figure was ascending.

Shi Feng, having heard that voice, also focused his gaze in that direction, looking at the old hag who had appeared.

The hag was hunched over, her face full of wrinkles, dressed in a white, loose robe, holding a Purple Serpent Long Staff, with a long, pale blue snake tail trailing beneath her, slowly flying towards them.

Three-star Martial Ancestor Realm! Shi Feng instantly recognized the Martial Arts Cultivation of the old hag from the Snake-man Race.

Hearing the command of the Priest Lord, Weii Gao cast a glance at the dark figure before him, then turned around and bowed in response to the approaching priest: "Yes!"

Immediately after, Weii Gao bowed and slowly descended toward Stone City below.

The old hag approached Shi Feng and with a slight bow said, "Honored guest, please forgive the children’s ignorance; on behalf of the children, I apologize for any disrespect shown to you."

"What! The great High Priest bowed to that human!"

"This... What is the identity of this young human strongman that even the High Priest would bow to him!"

"That’s alright, no need for that," Shi Feng waved his hand at the priest, "I’ve come to the Territory of the Snake-man Clan because I actually need your help with something, and to see Zi Ya. However, I’ve heard Zi Ya is in seclusion?"

"Respected guest, please follow me, and I will take you to see Zi Ya!"
