My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration

Their Holy Spirit had long died and was almost refined into an artifact spirit by others. In the end, its soul even dissipated after the fight.

Such a huge matter was actually unknown in the Holy Land.

“I’m sorry. Senior Holy Spirit was unfortunately defeated and died in the battle with the enemy. Blackstone City is also occupied by the enemy now.”

“Right now, the entire cultivation world of the Rock Mountain Range is in danger, so I specially came to retrieve the Dragon Pearl to save the people.”

Jiang Li explained the general situation.

He also made his trip sound more reasonable.

Otherwise, if he opened his mouth and said that he was here to take the Dragon Pearl, the other party might spit out a mouthful of poison.

Even if Jiang Li spoke tactfully, the other party’s attitude was still vile.

“This is impossible! How can the Holy Spirit die in battle! How can my invincible master die!”

However, when it heard the news that the Holy Spirit had died in battle, the snake’s emotions instantly exploded.

It opened its snake mouth and exposed two poisonous fangs that were thicker than Jiang Li’s entire body.

“You’re lying! Everyone who lies in the Myriad Snake Cave must die!”

The huge snake pounced at him without a word. Its bloody mouth was enough to devour a hundred pigs at once.

Bang!

Jiang Li did not dodge or evade as he responded with a punch. Under his fist, the pillar-like poisonous fangs broke with a loud sound. Poisonous snake blood splattered as the huge snake head was smashed back.

Times were different now. Because of the status, it was as if Jiang Li had tempered himself in the Foundation Establishment realm for 30 years. The stability of his Dao Foundation was several times stronger than before.

Coupled with the Human Emperor’s Blood Qi that was assisting Jiang Li in refining his apertures at all times, it made his physical strength increase every moment.

The current Jiang Li could not be underestimated with a casual punch.

The Dragon Imprisoning Lock flew out from his waist. The huge snake that was stunned by Jiang Li’s punch was about to be entangled.

Using the Dragon Imprisoning Lock, sealing a snake demon was not a problem.

At this moment, a stalactite above the cave suddenly stretched out. Its sharp tip nailed the Dragon Imprisoning Lock that was flying in the air, saving the Golden Web Python.

“Since you are a guest of the Huyan Clan, show me the token.”

At this moment, a charming red-robed woman slowly walked out from the depths of the cave.

The woman looked classical and quiet, like a well-educated young lady from a wealthy family.

The back of her red robe was very long, dragging more than 200 feet behind her.

Under the cover of the robe, it was obvious that there was a thick snake tail below.

This was a half-transformed Snake Lady.

Jiang Li waved his hand and used his spiritual qi to shatter the stalactite. He put away the Dragon Imprisoning Lock and stared at the Snake Lady warily.

This Snake Lady looked very suitable for human aesthetics from the outside, as if she was harmless.

However, Jiang Li felt a dense sense of danger from her.

Generally speaking, demons could begin to transform independently after reaching the Demon Core realm.

But this rule was not absolute.

For example, the demons in the Red Lantern Street could successfully transform with the help of medicinal pills.

As for some large-sized demon beasts or ancient remnant races with stronger Connate bloodlines, they would often face situations where it was harder to transform.

There were even some races that were unable to completely transform at all. They would more or less leave some racial characteristics on their bodies.

For example, many dragons in the ancient times basically started as Immortals after they matured.

However, the dragon horns on their foreheads could not be refined. After transforming into humans, they could only use illusions to conceal themselves.

Although it was not convenient, this was also a symbol of their identity and strength.

Therefore, when encountering such half-transformed demons, it often meant that they were harder to deal with than ordinary demons.

Jiang Li took out the snake scale. The strange light on it was still flickering like breathing.

When the Snake Lady and the huge snake on the ground saw the light on the snake scale, their expressions could not help but change.

Jiang Li could not understand the expression of the Golden Web Python.

However, the red-robed Snake Lady was first surprised, then she clearly revealed a trace of malice that was not well concealed.

Back then, the Holy Spirit had brought the snakes of the Myriad Snake Cave to participate in the battle.

In their understanding, the Holy Spirit was practically invincible. It was indeed the case in the cultivation world of the Rock Mountain Range.

They had never thought of the possibility of losing. Unfortunately, their opponent this time was from the Eastern Region and was stronger than they had imagined.

“Since you have the token, the Myriad Snake Cave will naturally treat you with respect. Follow me.”

It was unknown what this Snake Lady was thinking. Her expression changed several times before she brought Jiang Li into the Myriad Snake Cave.

The environment in this snake cave was very suitable for snakes to survive.

There were a large number of snake eggs on the ground, but there were not many adult pythons. They only curled up lazily in the surroundings.

The main forces of the Holy Land should have been destroyed in the Rock Mountain Range.

The Myriad Slaughter Sect was indeed powerful enough to kill the entire cultivation world of the Rock Mountain Range alone.

It was unknown how many years it would take for the snake eggs left in the snake cave to recover their former glory.

In next to no time, Jiang Li saw a door made of unknown metal ahead.

The door was rusty, and there was a black and white snake ring embedded in it.

“The precious Dragon Pearl is behind. Please take it yourself.”

“This is the Ouroboros Ring. You can open it with enough spiritual qi.”

With that said, Snake Lady did not speak further. She slithered her snake tail and stood to the side, clearly not prepared to help.

Inject spiritual qi?

Jiang Li hesitated for a moment before walking forward and pressing his hand on the center of the black-white snake ring.

Immediately, a suction force came, and a domineering force was pulling at the Nine Nether spiritual qi in Jiang Li’s body.

However, his Dao Foundation was firm. As long as he was unwilling, it was not so easy to extract his spiritual qi.

Jiang Li slowly released the restriction. Pure spiritual qi immediately surged along his meridians towards the snake ring.

In just two breaths, the standard spiritual qi of a Foundation Establishment cultivator had already disappeared.

However, this bit of spiritual qi was clearly not enough to fill the snake ring. The intense suction force kept wanting to completely empty Jiang Li.

Jiang Li simply released some restrictions again and instilled spiritual qi into it according to his maximum recovery speed.

The current Jiang Li could already completely endure the gain of a hundred points of high-grade spiritual qi per second.

Time slowly passed. The spiritual qi was still endless. The energy absorbed by the snake ring could be said to be a vast amount.

Even a Nascent Soul cultivator would not be able to withstand such a level of spiritual qi absorption.

To the cultivators below, absorbing spiritual qi of this level was no different from murder.

However, the stone door’s snake ring still did not move.

Something was amiss.

Jiang Li looked at the red robed Snake Lady again.

The other party’s originally beautiful and calm face was already covered in scale-like cracks.

The snake’s mouth protruded forward, and her mouth almost split to the ears. Her pair of snake eyes looked at Jiang Li gloomily, and she no longer had any beauty.

Around her, pythons of varying sizes twisted their bodies and surrounded them.

They spat out their snake tongues and looked at the guest in front of them. Their vertical pupils were filled with greed for flesh and blood.

“Senior Snake Lady, what do you mean by this?” Jiang Li placed his hand on the snake ring and asked politely as usual.

However, to cold-blooded animals, manners were worthless.

“The Holy Spirit is dead. Now, I’m the owner of the Myriad Snake Cave. Blackstone City is gone, so the previous agreement naturally doesn’t matter anymore.”

“A mere human actually dares to come and take our race’s treasure. Hmph, hand over the token and obediently become our food!”

The huge snake that remained in the cave suddenly pounced towards Jiang Li, its bloody mouth about to tear him apart.

Jiang Li wanted to withdraw his palm and retreat, but the black-white snake ring still firmly grabbed his palm and was unable to move at all.

The snakes’ mouths rushed over and completely drowned Jiang Li. They formed a huge snake ball around Jiang Li, looking only disgusting.

At least a hundred snakes bit him.

The sharp poisonous fangs continuously tried to pierce through Jiang Li’s skin.

“Sigh, I really can’t believe the words of cold-blooded animals.”

Swoosh!

Jiang Li increased the output speed of his spiritual qi, directly surpassing the absorption speed of the snake ring. The suction force instantly disappeared, and he easily withdrew his palm.

Then, in the next moment, the Nine Nether Tree Realm descended.

The expanding tree world was like a flood breaking the dam, filling up the space in the snake cave.

The huge snakes that wanted to wrap around him were all captured by the tree world in an instant.

Jiang Li immediately looked at the red-robed Snake Lady. Buddhist hands stretched out from behind him and smashed towards her.

However, Jiang Li who was originally prepared to fight discovered that the red-robed Snake Lady had actually been pushed far away by the tree world tide.

Her strength did not seem to be comparable to a Soul Formation cultivator.

“So she was just bluffing. Damn! I was actually tricked by a snake.”

The aura that came from the Snake Lady’s body earlier was very strong. Jiang Li thought that her strength had already reached the level of a greater demon equivalent to the Soul Formation realm.

He was already prepared to use all his trump cards to fight the other party.

However, the red-robed Snake Lady had been pushed away by Jiang Li with a single strike. Although she looked to be in a much better state than the Golden Web Python, she was still far from that level.

Jiang Li shook his hand and threw out the Blood Lotus Platform, directly trapping the Snake Lady and the Golden Web Python.

With his current strength and several cheat-level artifacts, the two snakes did not have much strength to resist.

After retracting the Blood Lotus Platform, two huge snakes were quickly swimming around inside, trying to find any breakthrough point.

Perhaps after this time, the two snake demons would understand the importance of manners.

Jiang Li formed seals, and a large amount of red chaotic power immediately surged out from the Blood Lotus Platform.

The power of chaos and spiritual qi were natural opposites. The two large snakes were trapped in a high concentration of blood, and it was even more uncomfortable than bathing in sulfur wine. They immediately twisted in pain.

The Golden Web Python quickly became on the verge of death, and the red-robed Snake Lady lay on the ground in pain. Her body swelled up constantly, and her appearance became uglier and uglier. Not long after, she was forced back to her original form by the power of chaos.

The snake’s body wrinkled strangely as something moved along the snake’s abdomen.

Finally, a golden snake egg spat out from the Snake Lady’s mouth.

After spitting out the snake egg, her aura visibly weakened, revealing her true cultivation.

It seemed that this snake egg was the main reason why she could disguise her strength that even Jiang Li could not see through.

“Honorable Snake Lady, you can at least tell me where the Dragon Pearl is now, right?”

Jiang Li looked down at the two large snakes, one red and one yellow, and remained calm and polite.

The Snake Lady returned to her original appearance. It was a huge red snake. Its red scales were shiny and it was obvious that it was a good material to soak in alcohol.

“I’m not lying to you. The Dragon Pearl is behind that stone door. Those who are fated can naturally open the stone door. Those who are not fated will not be able to enter no matter what.”

Jiang Li did not speak and only continued to increase the concentration of the power of chaos.

He could use the Nine Nether Earth Fruit to make the two of them speak.

However, the stronger the target was, the harder it was to take root.

Even if the Dragon Imprisoning Lock suppressed them, he had spent about seven days controlling that Dragon Transformation Island Nascent Soul.

These two large snakes were not weak and would probably need such a long time. However, that would undoubtedly be too long.

“Snake egg, place the token on the snake egg. It’s the key to the Ouroboros Ring!”

The red snake in pain finally squeezed out the answer from the gap between its teeth.

Jiang Li nodded in satisfaction and took out the golden snake egg from the lotus platform.

He took out the token scale again. After approaching the two, a powerful suction force immediately appeared.

As soon as he let go, these two things would cling together.

Immediately, the scale completely fused into the snake egg, and a weak heartbeat slowly sounded from the golden snake egg.

The golden snake egg emitted a ray of light that shone on the black-white snake ring. The snake lock finally released its grip on its mouth, and the door opened.

A dense dragon qi that even Jiang Li felt his heart palpitate surged out from inside. The only thing that could reach this level was probably the legendary Dragon Pearl.

“Put that snake egg on the stone platform and the Dragon Pearl will appear.”

The Snake Lady, who was unwilling to speak just now, now enthusiastically reminded Jiang Li.

However, Jiang Li smiled faintly and did not move.

“Honorable Lady Snake Lady, before you lie next time, please put away your murderous gaze.”

“Your acting is so poor. It’s difficult for me to cooperate with you.”

A wisp of black and white flames suddenly surged out from Jiang Li’s right hand that was holding the snake egg, and it ceaselessly burned the snake egg in his hand.

The temperature of the Ghost Lantern Cold Flame could not even warm one’s hand, but to a soul, it was definitely fatal.

One breath, two breaths, and three breaths went by. This guy was quite tolerant.

Twenty breaths later, the snake egg suddenly shook violently, and a strange frequency of wails sounded from inside.

Inside this snake egg belt was other than the Holy Spirit Snake that had “died” under Wu Fan’s saber not long ago.

In Jiang Li’s appraisal technique, the snake egg was called the “Reincarnation Egg”.

After seeing this name, Jiang Li immediately became extremely vigilant.

Coupled with the Snake Lady’s performance, he roughly guessed what had happened.

How was that scale an agreement with Blackstone City? It was clearly a life-preservation measure left behind by the Holy Spirit Snake!
