Rise Of The Demon God

Chapter 1444

"They moved," Xun agreed. "Something isn't right."

"Are they alive?" Snake Monarch asked, frowning.

Long Chen observed all the statues. None of the statues was moving now that he was observing, but he felt the shaking of the ground again.

He looked back, finding the other two statues behind him had moved forward as well.

"I think it's better to just destroy them. They don't seem right." He brought his Sword of Time out once again, prepared to destroy the statues.

Instead of finding more about them, destroying them seemed like a better option since they weren't giving him a good feeling. He didn't believe these statues could help him. All he knew was that the statues could take him out.

"I think they move when we're not looking at them. Xun, you keep looking at the two in the back. I'll destroy the three before me first."

He was already standing closer to the second statue and selected it to be the first target as well.

The massive elephant statue was facing Long Chen, but it wasn't moving. Long Chen flew up and landed on the back of the elephant.

He aimed the sharp end of the sword towards the neck of the elephant.

"Watch out!"

Long Chen brought the sword down to destroy the statue but stopped as he heard the yell of the Snake Monarch.

"Move!" Snake Monarch yelled.

Without doubting the Snake Monarch, Long Chen teleported back, barely avoiding tens of poisonous needles that would have stabbed him otherwise.

All the needles hit the wall, missing Long Chen.

"I think looking at them to stop them isn't going to work. That Snake literally attacked you," Snake Monarch told Long Chen, highlighting the attack that came from the statue of the Snake.

The horned snake statue had its mouth open. However, it wasn't standing still like a statue now. It was literally slithering closer to the statue of the Elephant, dragging its massive body.

"I was right," Long Chen muttered. "They are alive."

" Let's destroy you first in that case." He teleported behind the stone statue and attacked but just as he had Teleported, the snake also disappeared right before the attack was going to land on him.

On the other end, the poisonous needles came once again, flying from the back.

Long Chen disappeared again, landing behind the elephant statue. "A beast which can Teleport as well."

He brought his Spirit Sword out of his ring and let it fly to attack the stone leopard statue while he focused on the snake. However, even as he looked around, he couldn't find the snake anywhere.

Long Chen spread out his Divine Sense around him, but to his surprise, he couldn't see anything. He could only find Xun and Snake Monarch. His Divine Sense didn't even register the statues. To it, the entire room was empty.

"I can't sense the snake. Be careful. If it's invisible, it can attack from anywhere," Long Chen reminded Xun. "Heck, I think it's better to just send you two back."

He flew back to Xun to send him back to his Inner World with his face looking at the roof.

"Ah, so there you are!"

As Long Chen flew back, he noticed the Snake Statue slithering on the roof.

He reached Xun, and without even giving her a chance to speak, he sent her back to his Inner World.

"Snakey, time for you to go back as well."

"Wait, I can help you."

"I don't need your help. I can do it alone," Long Chen replied.

He reached out his hand to send the Snake Monarch back, but just as his hand was about to touch the Snake Monarch, the Snake Monarch disappeared.

Instead, the Snake Statue appeared in the place, opening its fangs to bite Long Chen.

It was already too fast. Before Long Chen could react, the fangs of the stone statue stabbed in his hands. A large quantity of poison was injected into his body before he was able to Teleport back.

"Sigh, this is getting really annoying. Now I understand how annoying it must be for my enemies with my Teleportation," Long Chen muttered, appearing in the distance.

"Fortunately, I don't get affected by the poison." He looked at his hand, which had teeth marks. However, to his surprise, he noticed that his hand had started turning green for some reason.

He wasn't feeling the pain, but still, the changing color of his hand worried him.

Roarrr~

As he was concerned about his hand, he heard a roaring sound. It seemed like the second statue of the Winged Leopard was also getting active.

It started walking towards Long Chen, looking at him like prey. Out of five statues, two had literally stopped hiding; the other two kept moving closer to the center while Long Chen wasn't looking.

Only the elephant statue had remained on the same spot as before.

Long Chen observed the Snake, which was standing on the left of the elephant statue, and the leopard, which was standing on the right.

He remained more concerned about his hand though. Finally, he was starting to feel the pain in his hand which was worrying him.

He didn't want to fight at the moment since the more he moved, the faster this poison was going to move.

"I don't expect poison to affect me. But then again, you aren't an ordinary beast. Your poison is different; I give you that. I need an antidote..."

"And for that, I need you."

As Long Chen kept the two statues distracted, the spirit Sword came flying from the back towards the leopard. However, it appeared like the leopard sensed the sword.

It spread its wings wide, casting a white barrier around it. The Spirit Sword was a really high-grade treasure, but even it couldn't hurt the Winged Leopard.

However, it didn't matter for Long Chen. All he wanted was a little bit of distraction.

As the leopard was distracted, he appeared above the Snake and attacked. Things didn't go as planned even now as the snake disappeared again.

It was as if the Snake could sense the events before they happened. It always disappeared at the right time, no matter how fast Long Chen acted.

"This isn't going to work. I think you need a better plan!" Snake Monarch's voice came from the distance.

He was comfortably sitting on top of the elephant statue, watching the battle. action

"I don't understand what plan will work. They have a really good reflex," Long Chen replied.. "They act before I do anything. Moreover, this poison is also making me slow!"
