The anaconda swarm launched the first attack.

The yellowish pupils turned into a faint green light, humming softly beside Lu Zhaozhao, like a priest respectfully offering sacrifices to the gods at a ritual.

Not far away, the eaves of the temple can be faintly seen through the layers of trees, and the stone beast statues on the upturned eaves are looking in this direction.

"hiss!"

Niye blocked an attack from behind.

It was a anaconda that wanted to launch a surprise attack. Its attack was blocked by Niye, and it was bounced back. Now it was making a hoarse sound of resentment.

The remaining anacondas launched an attack together.

In an instant, it seemed as if a rain of snakes was falling in the cramped space, attacking Lu Zhaozhao from all directions.

However, Lu Zhaozhao was not afraid. In the past year on the first floor, she had done more than just fight monsters and cultivate. More importantly, she had also practiced a sword technique called Qingyang from the Zhili Yi.

The clear and bright, thin and ethereal, form the sky; the heavy and turbid, solid and stagnant, form the earth.

Even after cultivating to this point, Lu Zhaozhao still felt that this was a vague and unreal description.

The sun and the breeze are things we can often feel directly in life; they are unpredictable, shapeless, and constantly changing.

The annotations, with their clear and bright light, gentle breeze, bright sunshine, and sweet dew covering the universe, present her with a vivid picture.

The wilderness stretched endlessly, and mist shrouded the forest. Moisture mingled into fine raindrops, adding a touch of dampness to the silent woods, and the wet leaves occasionally glittered with a metallic sheen. Sunlight pierced through the thin mist, like flickering candlelight.

The smoke and mist drifted far and wide, floating leisurely.

It is an extremely vivid scene.

The sword technique it embodies, as its name suggests, is Qingyang, which means sunlight piercing through rain and mist. It can penetrate every tiny corner that cannot be completely covered, and it can also break through the barrier of rain and mist, refracting dazzling colors.

It is the ultimate beauty, and at the same time, the ultimate danger.

With a flick of the wrist and a slight turn of the body, the silver sword shimmered and undulated in the light and shadow, as if painting in the air with flowing strokes.

The sea of ​​silver blossoms was so dazzling that even the anaconda with its exceptional eyesight was momentarily blinded.

In no time, Lu Zhaozhao was surrounded by a sea of ​​silver flowers.

The adult anaconda stared at Lu Zhaozhao dancing in the silver sea with chilling eyes, and a sense of crisis immediately surged up.

It issued commands to the anaconda swarm to intensify their attacks.

Upon receiving the command, the anaconda swarm immediately became eager to try, and large groups of them rushed towards Lu Zhaozhao's direction.

The dark shadows loomed closer and closer, reflected in Lu Zhaozhao's black eyes.

A cold liquid splashed onto her cheek.

The snakes were strangled to pieces when they were less than half a meter away from her.

What cleaved them was a beam of light that pierced through the clouds.

The female adult anaconda, who had been observing the situation from a distance, couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.

Since it entered this back mountain, it has never seen the sunlight again. The back mountain is heavily guarded and never sees the sun; only a lonely moon hangs in the sky all year round.

There are no stars, no daylight.

But now, a ray of dawn light truly shines through.

The faint light pierced through the clouds and struck the silver flowers on the ground, refracting into beams of light with a hint of silver.

It was this seemingly insignificant ray of light that pierced and tore through the anaconda swarm the moment it approached.

Lu Zhaozhao casually wiped the liquid off her face with her sleeve.

A smile appeared on her lips. The power of Qingyang was beyond her expectations. Although it was a place where the sun never shone, the pervasive miasma actually made the light reflect even more.

At this moment, the attack successfully attracted the attention of the adult anaconda.

Those venomous snake eyes were coldly fixed on Lu Zhaozhao, inexplicably sending a chill down her spine.

Lu Zhaozhao estimated the distance between them and swung her sword to unleash another beam of light.

This beam of light was much stronger than the previous one.

In the blink of an eye, she was surrounded by wreckage, with no sign of life.

The remaining anacondas on the outer edge of the attack zone were stunned by the sudden and powerful attack, and they all turned and scattered, hiding behind the leader of the anacondas.

But Lu Zhaozhao was faster than them.

In the blink of an eye, her attack range had covered the adult anaconda.

Without hesitation, she swung her sword and thrust it fiercely.

The python didn't hesitate either, whipping its tail to attack.

The sword and the tail collided, the sword was knocked away and stuck in the soil behind them, the remaining force instantly annihilating the other anacondas that were rushing towards them.

The snake's tail, which had been extended from the sword, swung in the air once but did not fall for a long time.

"Click".

A soft sound came, and several palm-sized scales fell to the ground.

Correspondingly, on the front of the snake's tail, which was suspended in the air, appeared a patch of uneven skin.

The seemingly indestructible snake scales were knocked off by the seemingly insignificant beam of light.

Intense pain shot straight up the anaconda's head along the nerves in its tail, and instantly spread throughout its entire body.

A sharp cry came from its mouth, frightening the other anacondas around it so much that they involuntarily lay prostrate on the ground, not daring to move an inch.

The tree's tail slammed down, creating a huge hole in the ground, where blood was gushing from where the scales had been scraped off.

This is precisely the situation that Lu Zhaozhao is striving to achieve.

The road, which had been completely covered up, suddenly showed signs of weakness.

She turned and pulled out the rebellious blade, then used all her strength to rush toward the opening.

She never intended to defeat these anacondas; the difference in strength was a problem she had to face. Therefore, the only thing she could gamble on was breaking through an opening.

Fortunately, she did it.

Although the sunlight was only as faint as a flickering candlelight, it had the scorching heat of the blazing sun, and the anaconda, living in damp and dark places, was most afraid of such scorching heat.

So the light burned them.

Lu Zhaozhao broke free from the swarm of snakes and arrived at the flat ground at the end, where an ancient and simple palace came into view.

In the urgency of the situation, she didn't have time to study it carefully and rushed forward to find an entrance.

At that moment, the snake's tail appeared as promised.

A furious and brutal attack struck Lu Zhaozhao hard in the back.

She slammed forward and was knocked into the temple along with the wooden door.

The pain of displaced internal organs spread throughout the body, and under the pressure of the internal organs, a mouthful of dark blood gushed out from within.

The injury made Lu Zhaozhao's vision go black, and she subconsciously raised her hand to defend herself.

To her surprise, the attack was delayed.

As her vision gradually cleared, she vaguely saw a barrier of light blocking the snake's tail from entering the doorway. If the snake's tail touched the golden light, it would leave a burning mark.

Judging from the injuries, they were even more severe than Lu Zhaozhao's full-force attack.

Lu Zhaozhao smiled bitterly; she had just escaped the snake's mouth, but it seemed she had entered the tiger's den.
