Bright Moon and Sparse Stars, the air was thick with the scent of blood.
A massive white python lay across the road, flicking its long tongue, its body shimmering with a translucent sheen. The Scale Armor glinted like blades, exuding a murderous aura as it swayed its long tail, seemingly ready to devour anything in its path. Its gaping maw opened wide, tongue dancing wildly, and two pairs of venomous fangs glimmered with a greenish hue. This was not just a fierce beast; it was a highly venomous one!
Inside the Cosmic Bag, Qin Fang's voice rang out: "Not good! Zi Yu, this is the Ancient Beast White Python. By classification, it should be an Eighth-Stage Beast. Zi Yu, be very careful! Eighth-Stage Beasts possess Pressure abilities!"
...
Ye Yang nodded. In fact, when the White Python appeared, many people were already immobilized. It seemed they were paralyzed with fear, but that was not the case; it was the beast's Pressure!
"Thud thud thud..."
With several successive sounds, the head of the White Python fell like raindrops. After a few bites, several experts were swallowed whole, leaving only Ye Yang standing alone in the forest.
"Whoosh..."
The White Python flicked its tongue, its pair of crimson eyes fixed intently on Ye Yang, as if sensing something different about this young man.
Ye Yang's gaze sharpened, his body radiating a rich orange glow as he summoned all his True Qi. Facing an Eighth-Stage Beast, he had to give it his all; otherwise, he could easily be killed in one encounter. Killing prey was an instinct of magical beasts.
Suddenly, the White Python opened its mouth wide and lunged forward to swallow him, its venomous fangs glinting ominously!
Ye Yang saw this clearly and instead of retreating, he advanced. With the Breaking Flame Sword held horizontally, infused with Fire God Power, he struck decisively at the python's fangs!
"Clang!"
With a resonating sound of Goldstone, Ye Yang used the rebound force to swiftly retreat while the python's fangs only caused a dull pain before it quickly lunged again!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
The flesh beneath the python's lower jaw swelled as if it were brewing something within its mouth.
Qin Fang exclaimed in shock: "It's the Extinguishing Fireball, a unique attack method of high-level beasts that condenses energy equivalent to its own attributes to strike at targets with immense destructive power!"
Ye Yang was also slightly taken aback. He looked up to see that the White Python had opened its mouth wide and a ball of flames erupted forth!
"Flood!"
Like a shockwave, it ruthlessly turned the trees into ashes, creating a wide fan-shaped area of attack that was simply unavoidable!
In the blink of an eye, Ye Yang raised his sword-like brows and swung his arm, activating the profound Void Technique. In the next moment, a massive Heaven and Earth Shield of energy enveloped him, bracing for the attack from the Eighth-Stage Beast!
"Boom!"
Amidst the explosion, the Heaven and Earth Shield developed cracks, shattering into countless energy fragments that vanished into thin air.
Ye Yang felt a burning pain throughout his body; the Heaven and Earth Shield only absorbed ninety percent of the Extinguishing Fireball, leaving the remaining ten percent for his body to endure!
Fortunately, the Void Technique was continuously operating, expelling most of the fire essence from his body. More importantly, Ye Yang's cultivation of the Fire God Fragment was based on a supreme yang technique, granting him strong resistance against fire-type attacks. Otherwise, an ordinary Earth Level Six expert would have been reduced to ashes by now.
Looking behind him, a hilltop had already turned into a sea of flames; the White Python's attack was terrifying!
After failing to land its strike, the White Python experienced a noticeable moment of vulnerability and could not move.
The opportunity had arrived!
Ye Yang darted forward like an arrow, flames engulfing his Breaking Flame Sword. Not only that, arcs of lightning energy surged along the blade, striking down towards the White Python's vital spot with the ferocity of a Thunder Blade!
Wilderness Thunder!
"Thud!"
The long sword shattered the White Python's Scale Armor, instantly carving a deep wound across its body. However, due to the beast's massive size, even though the Breaking Flame Sword penetrated to its hilt, it could not sever it in two!
"Hissssss..."
The power of that strike drove the White Python into a frenzy; its enormous body thrashed wildly, flattening the forest around it as its terrifying screams echoed relentlessly.
"Hissssss..."
The eyes turned blood red as the Eighth-Stage Beast went berserk, twisting its massive body and lunging once again at Ye Yang, surrounded by a dark blue glow, clearly ready to fight to the death!
Ye Yang's gaze was sharp and calm; he knew that this strike had to be lethal. Otherwise, with the strength of the Eighth-Stage Beast, he might not be able to withstand it.
"Whoosh!"
A flash of golden light shot into Ye Yang's eyes. In the next moment, the fabric on his right arm was completely burned away, flames bursting forth as obscure Oracle Bone Script characters appeared around his arm. Finally, he consciously triggered his transformation into the first level of Fire God Warrior Transformation—Crimson Flame!
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
The scorching flames formed a fierce cyclone wrapped around the Breaking Flame Sword.
"Ha!"
With a roar, Ye Yang's body suddenly lunged forward. The long sword flicked slightly and pierced lightning-fast into the White Python's vital point, unleashing Fire God Power!
"Whoosh!"
Flames erupted, scorching the wound on the White Python into ashes. The ghastly white bones twitched as all the flesh was incinerated in the next moment!
At that moment, the tail of the White Python struck fiercely!
"Bang!"
It hit Ye Yang squarely in the back, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood. His transformed state vanished in an instant; his injured body could no longer bear the burden of Fire God Transformation's energy!
Not only that, but as the White Python counterattacked in its dying moments, its massive skull came crashing down like a mountain, sweeping across with a powerful strike!
"Thud!"
Ye Yang felt a searing pain in his right arm as the sharp horn on top of the White Python's skull pierced through flesh, violently throwing Ye Yang away!
"Bang bang bang..."
The continuous collisions caused Ye Yang to fall helplessly into the dense forest, with a piercing pain radiating from his arm. Fortunately, the venom of the giant snake was in its fangs and not in its horns; otherwise, he could have easily succumbed to poisoning!
After taking a moment to catch his breath, he realized that his injuries were severe, especially in his arm, which was nearly incapacitated. With Zeng Xuan not by his side, he had no choice but to treat himself.
He took out some healing medicine from his Cosmic Bag and applied it to the wound. Then he tore his blue shirt to wrap around the injury. The pain in his arm was excruciating, making it difficult for him to even hold the Breaking Flame Sword steadily.
...
Stumbling out of the forest in a sorry state, he saw that the giant snake was on the verge of death. A burly man stepped forward and shouted, "Liu Tingchang, this beast seems to be injured!"
Immediately after, a Dignified Man approached with a longsword and decisively swung it down!
"Crack!"
The Blood-red Longsword was no ordinary weapon; with just one strike, it cleaved through the skull of the Eighth-Stage Beast!
The burly man raised his longsword and shouted angrily, "Beast, you harmed my brother, and now you shall die under my Liu Bang's Crimson Sky Sword!"
