This force was violent and scorching, like a caged prehistoric beast rampaging through his meridians. Each impact caused Ning Yu excruciating pain, but he gritted his teeth and persevered, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. He knew this was his only chance.

"Calm down, Ning Yu, calm down..." He kept telling himself, trying to feel the flow of this power and find a way to control it.

Time seemed to stand still, with only Ning Yu's rapid heartbeat and the giant python's increasingly close breathing mingling together. Mu Xue anxiously wanted to rush forward to help, but was stunned by the bizarre scene before her, and could only stare intently at Ning Yu, praying that he could create a miracle.

Suddenly, Ning Yu opened his eyes, which gleamed with a strange light. The violent power within him gradually subsided, like a wild horse that had finally found its master and become docile.

He felt the pulse of this power, as if he had become one with it. He stretched out his hand, and a golden light gradually gathered in his palm. This light grew brighter and brighter, illuminating Ning Yu's resolute face.

The giant python had arrived in front of Ning Yu. It opened its blood-red maw, its sharp fangs gleaming coldly, and its stench almost swallowed Ning Yu whole.

"Now!" Ning Yu roared, forcefully pushing the golden light in his hand out.

The golden light transformed into a pillar of light, carrying a world-destroying force, and slammed into the giant python's head.

"boom--"

After a deafening roar, the earth shook violently, and dust billowed everywhere...

As the smoke cleared, Ning Yu slowly opened his eyes and looked in the direction where the giant python had been.

The giant python's massive body crashed to the ground, its once-hard scales shattered, revealing the charred flesh beneath.

Ning Yu did not let his guard down. He stared intently at the giant python, sensing its faint breath, until he was sure it was completely lifeless before he finally let out a long sigh of relief.

“It worked…” Ning Yu murmured to himself, his tone filled with disbelief.

He looked down at his hands, his eyes filled with shock.

What exactly is this new force?

"Ning Yu..." Mu Xue's voice pulled Ning Yu back from his thoughts. He turned to look at Mu Xue, but before he could speak, his expression suddenly changed. He pulled Mu Xue behind him and said in a deep voice, "Be careful!"
