Suddenly, an invisible wave of energy erupted from Ning Yu's body!

The shockwave, like an invisible giant hammer, slammed heavily into the python's jaw. With a deafening crash, the python's massive body was forcefully propelled away by the shockwave!

"Roar—!" The giant python let out a painful roar, crashing heavily to the ground more than ten meters away, raising a cloud of dust. Its massive body rolled and struggled on the ground, seemingly trying to get back up, but it could not succeed.

Ning Yu slowly stood up, looking at the scene before him with disbelief in his eyes. He looked down at his hands, feeling the surging power within him, and his heart was filled with turbulent emotions.

"This...this is my power?"

Before Ning Yu could think further, the giant python not far away struggled to its feet, its scarlet eyes filled with anger and hatred as it stared intently at Ning Yu. It opened its blood-red maw, and foul-smelling saliva rained down, its sharp fangs gleaming coldly in the sunlight; it was clearly thoroughly enraged.

"Roar—!" The giant python roared again, its massive body charging towards Ning Yu like an arrow released from a bow. This time, it was faster and stronger than before, determined to tear Ning Yu to shreds!

Ning Yu took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. He knew this wasn't the time to be shocked; he had to learn to control this power in order to defeat the formidable enemy before him!

"Come on!" Ning Yu roared, advancing instead of retreating, charging towards the giant python.

Just then, a figure flashed past like lightning and appeared in front of Ning Yu.

"Watch out!" Mu Xue's cold voice rang out, and a dagger gleaming with a cold light appeared in her hand without hesitation. She thrust it towards the giant python's vital spot!

"Don't come any closer, it's dangerous!" Ning Yu exclaimed in alarm, but it was too late to stop them.

Ignoring Ning Yu's shouts, Mu Xue thrust her dagger into the giant python's vital spot with unparalleled precision, like a viper striking its tongue!

However, the giant python's massive body only trembled slightly, and it was not fatally wounded. A hint of contempt flashed in its scarlet eyes, and it opened its blood-red maw to bite at Mu Xue!

"No!" Ning Yu's eyes were bloodshot as he tried to rush forward to save Mu Xue, but he found that his body was as heavy as lead and he could not move at all.

At this critical moment, an even more powerful force erupted from Ning Yu's body!

"Ah—!" Ning Yu roared, his eyes instantly turning blood red...
