Chapter 1861: Six-legged Imperial Serpent (Please Subscribe)_1

Xu Sheng nodded slightly, "Of course, if you don't want to go, just tell me which passage it is!"

Jiang Qiyue immediately objected, "How can this be done, letting a new recruit go alone is too risky!"

If the former perishes in an S-Grade Abyssal Passage, it would be a huge loss for the Ferocious God Legion!

Xu Sheng smiled faintly, "So, does this mean you're willing to accompany me?"

He could sense Jiang Qiyue's concern, so he had no intention of forcing her...

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiyue bit her thin lips, hesitating...

She did not want to enter the S-Grade Abyssal Passage, yet she was not at ease letting the former enter alone...

At this moment, Long Yuxue, who had just returned from the Level C Abyssal Passage, saw the two of them and said in surprise, "July, Xu Sheng, what are you doing here?"

And Tang Wulin and Gu Yue, who were behind her, also spoke in unison, "Teacher Xu! Officer Jiang."

Xu Sheng glanced at them and nodded in acknowledgment!

Jiang Qiyue regained her composure and said with a hint of resentment, "General Long asked me to show Xu Sheng around the Abyssal Passage!"

Long Yuxue pondered and said, "I see, we've also just come back from the Level C Abyssal Passage! Hurry up before it gets completely dark."

Jiang Qiyue rolled her eyes, "I would love to, but the passage Xu Sheng wants to visit is the S-Grade Abyssal Passage!"

The usually composed Long Yuxue was suddenly flabbergasted and exclaimed in shock, "What? Enter the S-Grade Abyssal Passage??"

"Yes, I want to see what level of strength the creatures in the S-Grade Abyssal Passage are at!"

Beyond that, he wanted to see if there was anything in this space that could pose a threat to the Divine Realm!

After pausing for a moment, she turned to Xu Sheng and said, "Xu Sheng, you've just started exploring Abyssal Passages, it's better to choose one below A-level, even I and July haven't entered an S-Grade Abyssal Passage!"

"The level of danger there is far beyond your imagination!"

Tang Wulin also spoke seriously, "Teacher Xu, I also think Commander Long makes sense, the Abyssal Passage exerts a very strong suppressive effect on Soul Masters, not only preventing the release of soul skills but also greatly reducing Soul Power!"

"Although your strength is substantial, there's no need to take this risk!"

Gu Yue also nodded in agreement...

If even a Level C Abyssal Passage could exert such strong suppressive force, an S-Grade Abyssal Passage would potentially prevent a Soul Master from even wielding half of their true strength!

Seeing that everyone was trying to reassure him, Xu Sheng did not want to be stubborn and replied, "Well then... Alright, July, you lead the way to the A-level Abyssal Passage."

It seemed he would have to wait for an opportunity in the future to enter the S-Grade Abyssal Passage by himself!

Jiang Qiyue breathed a sigh of relief, "If it is an A-level Abyssal Passage, then no problem!"

An A-level Abyssal Passage, though dangerous, is nothing compared to the S-Grade Abyssal Passage!

Long Yuxue waved her hand, "Then you should hurry, and we'll head back to the Special Duty Office!"

Having said that, she left the cave with Tang Wulin and Gu Yue...

...

Looking ahead at the dim, pitch-black wide passage, Xu Sheng said indifferently, "Is this the Abyssal Passage? It doesn't seem to have the intense suppressive force I was told about!"

Next to him, Jiang Qiyue explained, "That's because we're currently on the outskirts of the Abyssal Passage. An A-level Abyssal Passage is at least five to ten times larger than a Level C Abyssal Passage!"

"Only when you reach deeper inside will the suppressive effects on Soul Masters become very apparent! However, we should prepare to retreat in advance!"

Xu Sheng gently replied, "Hmm! July, stand behind me."

Hearing this, Jiang Qiyue's heart suddenly warmed, and she felt a sense of safety flooding her heart...

But the next second, she shook her head and muttered inside, "Really, in such a dangerous place, why am I thinking about other trivial matters?"

Xu Sheng asked with confusion, "July, is there a problem?"

Jiang Qiyue's expression remained unchanged as she replied, "Nothing much, it's just that I'm quite experienced with the creatures in the Abyssal Passages, so it's better for me to stand with you!"

Subsequently, the two began to walk deeper into the passage on foot...

Unlike C-level Abyssal Passages, A-level Abyssal Passages were not equipped with lights or platforms, to avoid provoking those powerful abyssal creatures!

Suddenly, a sinister hissing noise arose from ahead...

"Sss~~"

Jiang Qiyue immediately took out her soul weapon and said cautiously, "Xu Sheng, did you hear that?"

Xu Sheng's gaze flickered, "Mmm, it's similar to the hiss of a snake! And... that creature must have six legs, undulating as it crawls along the walls, and its size is probably several tens of meters!"

He could not only hear it but also see it clearly!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiyue said in astonishment, "Xu Sheng, can you see clearly the creature a hundred meters ahead?"

Xu Sheng raised an eyebrow slightly, "Is there a problem?"

Jiang Qiyue said earnestly, "Of course, there's a problem. In the A-level Abyssal Passage, all scouting is completely blocked, yet you can see so far!"

"As for the six-legged creature you mentioned, that should be the Six-legged Imperial Serpent, which is also an extremely formidable presence in an A-level Abyssal Passage!"

She had only hunted a few herself, and that too by joining forces with other officers!

Xu Sheng pursed his lips thoughtfully, "If a creature of this level already counts as strong existence in the A-level Abyssal Passage, then it seems the S-Grade Abyssal Passage can't be that much tougher, it's just been demonized by the officers of the Ferocious God Legion!"

Then he asked, "July, how many Merit Points is this creature worth?"

Jiang Qiyue nearly replied instantly, "About three to five hundred Military Merit Points, I guess! Why do you ask?"

Xu Sheng blinked, "Of course, I'm preparing to hunt some creatures. Otherwise, it wouldn't do justice to General Long promoting me to the rank of lieutenant colonel, right?"

Jiang Qiyue was taken aback for a moment and then pouted, "It seems, that's reasonable!"

"However, when dealing with the Six-legged Imperial Serpent, you need to be a bit more careful. Its entire body is covered with a potent poison; you can't touch it with your body, and moreover, right after its death, you need to immediately remove its poison gallbladder, or it will explode and cause a widespread diffusion of poison mist!"

An officer hadn't handled the poison gallbladder in time before, resulting in the whole team being wiped out!

Knowing the Six-legged Imperial Serpent's weakness, Xu Sheng's figure flashed, and he suddenly appeared ahead...

The Six-legged Imperial Serpent, sensing the intrusion of a foreign presence into its territory, instantly woke from its slumber...

It immediately stared at Xu Sheng with its sinister, dark green vertical pupils, continuously flicking its tongue...

The latter took out his soul weapon from the storage soul tool without any hesitation and pressed it against the Six-legged Imperial Serpent's head...

"Bang!!"

The deafening sound of the explosion rang out, yet the coiled up Six-legged Imperial Serpent remained unharmed!

But in those vertical pupils, the murderous intent towards Xu Sheng grew even more intense!
