Enzo and Norma cautiously peeked out from the cave entrance.
In front of the cave, there was no obstruction, and the two of them could easily see the distant scenery. They could see a vast expanse of forest, a wide river to the left, and a peculiar, towering peak on the right.
The mountain peak is incredibly straight, like a huge stone stick inserted into the ground.
The strange sound wasing from this peak.
"What is that?"
Enzo asked, astonished.
Norma was also shocked, her face unusually serious, and she carefully dragged Enzo back into the cave before speaking up, "If I''m not mistaken, it should be a Titan creature, and it''s also an extremely rare group of Titan creatures - me Cobra."
Enzo''s heart raced.
While a strong bloodline didn''t necessarily guarantee power, it often indicated exceptional strength.
But strong strength often indicatedthat a person has extraordinary abilities.
This is particrly evident in some terrifying monsters, especially with this me Cobra. Its enormous size allows it to coil around an entire mountain, and its Titan-level bloodline further demonstrates the immense strength of this me Cobra.
Despite this, Enzo remained rtivelyposed.
Enzo analyzed, "That peak is likely the resting ce of the me Cobra. This cave is no longer safe; we should leave as soon as possible."
Norma also agreedwith this point.
Just as the two were about to leave, a voice suddenly sounded near the cave entrance, and it was still a human conversation,"Lord Shayan, there is a cave here where you can rest.
At the next moment,agroup of people entered the cave and saw Enzo and Norma preparing to leave.
"It''s you!"
The man called Shayan said, his eyes shing with surprise and greed.
Enzo wanted to avoid conflict and said, "The cave is yours to rest in. We''ll leave immediately."
Shayan was taken aback.
Smiling, he assumed Enzo and Norma were scared and taunted, "Weren''t you tough earlier? Afraid now?"
"You should leave." Shayan continued. "But first, hand over that Spatial Stone essence you have!"
Shayan''spanions shouted, "Hand it over!"
Norma and Enzo''s expressions changed, not because of Shayan''s threat but because they noticed the me Cobra on the peak had vanished.
Oh no!
Danger loomed instantly, and Enzo and Norma fled without hesitation.
Seeing this, Shayan sneered, "What a bunch of cowards!"
At that moment, Shayan smelled an extremely foul odor and felt warm blood sttering on his face. He quickly turned around and saw that a serpent had appeared behind him, its head over two meters wide, with a corpse of one of his subordinates in its mouth.
The serpent''s cold, vertical eyes were fixed on him.
What kind of monster is this?
Fear gripped Shayan, his mind going nk as he instinctively fled.
Instead of seeking another ce to hide, he chased after the direction Enzo and Norma were heading.
Hearing themotion behind them, Norma cursed angrily, "Damn it! This guy is trying to lead the me Cobra to us!"
Enzo was equally furious.
But right now, escape was their only option.
The me Cobra''s power was overwhelming. To make matters worse, the Spatial Stone vein seemed to disrupt the control of spatial elemental forces in the realm, making it difficult to use spatial powers forbat or to open spatial channels within the domain.
The me Cobra moved incredibly fast and quickly caught up.
Shayan, now trailing behind Enzo and Norma, shouted desperately, "Help me! I don''t want to die! If you save me, I''ll offer a generous reward!"
Enzo and Norma did not stop.
At a time like this, stopping would only mean being devoured by the me Cobra.
Shayan suddenly became desperate, but a dark thought arose in his heart. He umted his own strength in his hands, forming a powerful energy ball, but it was not attacking me Cobra behind him, but bombarding Enzo and Norma''s position.
At the same time, he said, "If you don''t save me, then die together."
After these words ,the energy spherefrom Shayan was shot toward Enzo and Norma.
BothEnzo and Norma noticed and quickly avoided.
At that moment, the me Cobra opened its massive jaws and swallowed Shayan whole.
To avoid the energy sphere, Enzo and Norma had been dyed. As a result, the me Cobra finished consuming Shayan and quickly closed the distance, its enormous body blocking Enzo and Norma''s path.
Enzo and Norma had no choice but to stop.
"Enzo, I''ll lure the me Cobra away, and you escape immediately."
Norma saidthat, though her tone was far from confident.
The me Cobra''s strength was immense, and diverting it alone almost guaranteed death.
Enzo understood this point well.
He shook his head and said, "It''s not time for that yet."
As if to confirm Enzo''s words, the me Cobra''s head lowered, focusing on Enzo and Norma. Instead of attacking immediately, it flicked its crimson tongue, seemingly sensing something.
What didit want to do?
Enzo and Norma were puzzled.
However, this gave them a sigh of relief.
The me Cobra seemed to possess some intelligence and might be able tomunicate, giving them a chance for survival.
In the next moment, the me Cobra lowered its head even further, pressing it against the ground.
Norma, confused, asked, "Enzo, what does this mean?"
Enzo, familiar with serpent behavior from his experiences with Arceus.
Hespected, "It probably wants to take us somewhere, signaling us to stand on its head."
Norma was still worried, hesitating as she asked, "Is that really the case?"
But Enzo took her hand and jumped onto the me Cobra''s head. The me Cobra made no resistance. Once they were stable, it lifted its head and swiftly moved through the forest, reaching the strange mountain in no time. It then coiled up and carried Enzo and Norma to the peak of the mountain.
At the top of the mountain was a vast nest.
It wassurrounded by boulders, with the center piled high with branches and dead leaves. Three thumb-thick red-hued baby serpentsy atop the leaves, their presence faint.
Norma nced around and said, "Those are the me Cobra''s offspring."
Enzo looked over and roughly guessed the me Cobra''s intention. He said, "The me Cobra must have sensed the life energy I emitted earlier, so it wants me to help these three baby serpents."
As Enzo spoke, anotherrge serpent appeared.
Though smaller than the one coiled around the peak, it was still a formidable creature and appeared quite agitated, hissing loudly upon seeing Enzo and Norma.
Therge serpent extended its tongue in response.
Enzo approached and asked, "Do you want me to heal these three baby serpents?"
Therge serpent nodded.
With this confirmation, Enzo was reassured.
Although the injuries suffered by these three little snakes may not seem simple, the life energy they controle from the Tree of Life, which was the origin tree of all human life. It couldbe said that using it for treatment is a waste of talent.
Enzo then began the healing process.
The Ring of the World''s totem appeared on his palm, its patterns shifting until they formed a unique design.
Next, a vibrant green life energy flowed from the Ring, splitting into three streams and entering the weakened baby serpents.
Momentster, the vitality of the three baby serpents began to strengthen.
One of the baby serpents, particrly bold, climbed directly onto Enzo and coiled around his wrist.
Norma looked on, astonished.
She had never seen Enzo''s totem before.
Unlike typical symbols, which usually depict specific objects, Enzo''s totem was represented by a ring-like symbol. Such totems were rare and their powers were shrouded in mystery. What amazed Norma most was that the patterns within the ring-shaped totem were changing.
Moreover, the life energy Enzo was using was incredibly pure.
Norma was unable toprehend it, feeling that her understanding of the supernatural had beenpletely overturned.
However, now was not the time for contemtion.
As the three baby serpents recovered, the tworger serpents emitted excited hissing sounds.
Norma seized the opportunity to examine the baby serpent coiled around Enzo''s wrist and her expression changed dramatically. With immense excitement, she said, "Enzo, this isn''t a me Cobra hatchling!"
Enzo was puzzled and asked, "Not?"
Upon closer inspection, he did notice differences. The baby serpent on his wrist had red scales and me-like patterns simr to therger serpents, but it had a small horn on its forehead andcked the me patterns on its tail.
Norma exined, "This is likely a mutation of the me Cobra bloodline. "
"There is a Spatial Stone vein in this secret realm, and through long-term contact, two me Cobras have been affected, resulting in mutations in their offspring. However, mutations are often uncontroble, and as a result, after three small snakes hatch, they be extremely weak.
Without you, they may not be long before they die."
Enzo understood now.
At that moment, therger me Cobra pressed its head against the top of the mountain again.
