Chapter 183 Demonic Python

A giant python with a pitch-black body suddenly jumped out, its body covered with hard scales and carrying a strong fishy smell. It raised its body high up and then swooped down towards them.

The huge body brought up gusts of wind, making the two of them unstable.

Gu Junyao grabbed Ling Changge's body and pulled it into his arms, and the two of them retreated backwards.

The giant python missed its attack and kept its eyes fixed on them. Without stopping, it opened its mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, and bit straight at the two of them.

Just as Gu Junyao was about to gather his energy in his hands, he was interrupted by Ling Changge: "Have you forgotten what Master said? You are not allowed to use spiritual power."

"This is a peak Saint-level demon beast, just one step away from reaching the Divine level. Even if you summoned both Saint Beasts within you, you would still be no match for it. The ferocity of demon beasts is beyond your imagination." Gu Junyao waved his arm, and a spirit sword appeared in his palm. "It is not a good thing for such a high-level demon beast to be entrenched here. We must not let it escape."

There is a seal of the demons here. The holy-level demon beasts here may have sensed that the power of the barrier has weakened and want to help the demons break the seal. If this is true, it would be dangerous.

Ling Changge also knew the seriousness of the situation. She waved two fingers, and the black dagger appeared in her palm. "Don't attack yet. If I really can't hold on, I'll take over your turn. I haven't attacked since I advanced to Spirit King, so this is a good opportunity for practice."

"Don't be so stubborn." Gu Junyao said in a deep voice, "The Saint-level giant python is cunning and cruel by nature. It likes to eat human brains. Be careful. There is a long thorn on its tail, which is extremely poisonous."

Ling Changge looked at him with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"What are you looking at me for? Look at it!"

As Gu Junyao finished speaking, a strong gust of wind blew in, mixed with a fishy smell. Ling Changge frowned and said in a deep voice, "Stinky thing, how come it stinks even more than Xiaoqi?"

Upon hearing this, the little Qiongqi in the space jumped up and shouted, "I don't stink! I don't stink at all!"

Ling Changge automatically blocked out its voice and stared at the giant python flying towards him.

The dagger flashed in her palm, and she swung it out violently. A black light flashed, covered with a layer of colorful spiritual power. It moved with Ling Changge's mind and stabbed straight towards the giant python's seven inches.

The holy-level spiritual weapon was extremely powerful, but in front of the giant python, it seemed not enough. The dagger only scratched the scales of the giant python without leaving any scars.

Ling Changge's heart trembled, as the giant python was very close.

Her spiritual power flashed in her palm, and she swung it out violently. The powerful force turned into a barrier, keeping the giant python out.

A peak holy beast, equivalent to a human spirit lord.

Ling Changge didn't even dare to think about what the concept of a Spirit Lord was.

After all, she still has a long way to go before she becomes a Spirit Lord.

One has to surpass Lingxuan and Linghuang to become Lingjun.

Her barrier was no different from a piece of paper to the giant python.

The giant python did not stop, but went straight through the barrier and headed towards Ling Changge.

A foul smell hit Ling Changge in the face. He almost fainted from the suffocation and couldn't help but wonder why Gu Junyao didn't tell him that the breath of this stinking snake is also poisonous!

"Xiao Qi, this stinky thing is indeed a little stinkier than you." Ling Changge swung the dagger again, using his footwork at its maximum speed, barely dodging its attack.

However, his body was slightly burned by its corrosive demonic energy, and he felt a stinging pain on the back of his hand.

Ling Changge frowned, her eyes darkening slightly: "Damn thing, you're dead." As soon as she finished speaking, her body flew into the air, a light flashed between her eyebrows, and five-colored spiritual power burst out from her body. A five-colored fire lotus condensed in her palm, and powerful power slowly spread from her palm to the surroundings.

Gu Junyao looked at the fire lotus in her palm, with a hint of admiration in his eyes. The power of this fire lotus was indeed very strong. Even a powerful Lingxuan warrior would have to be careful when facing it. However, if it was to face a peak Saint-level monster, it would not be enough.

But he did not remind them that if one wants to grow quickly, it is not possible to always rely on others.

The fire lotus flew towards the giant python with a ray of light.

"boom!"

A huge explosion sounded, but the scene that Ling Changge had expected did not appear. Gu Junyao guessed correctly that this amount of damage was not worth mentioning at all for a peak Saint-level monster.

Ling Changge's heart sank and he quickly retreated, thinking of a solution in his mind.

Although her attack did not cause any substantial damage to the giant python, it completely enraged it: "Ignorant human, die!" A sharp and piercing voice sounded, and the scales on the giant python exploded. Dozens of black scales floated around its body, each one like a sharp knife, flying towards Ling Changge with powerful force.

She dodged nimbly, and the scales pierced through the tree trunk, causing the thousand-year-old tree to fall down. It was obvious that the scales were very powerful. If they fell on a person, they would directly break the person's body in two.

Ling Changge did not dare to be careless. He had no other choice but to dodge. He could not compete with it with his own strength alone.

She glanced at Gu Junyao in the distance, gritted her teeth and didn't say anything.

"Xiao Qi, can you beat this stinky thing?"

"Hmph! It's just a stinking snake at the peak of the Saint level. I don't care about it. As long as it's not a divine beast, it's fine." It bared its teeth and said, "If I defeat it, can you let me eat it?"

"It stinks so bad, won't it stink even worse after you eat it?" Ling Changge said angrily, "You are not allowed to eat it!"

Xiaoqi's expression suddenly became lonely.

"But if you beat it, I can give you some jerky."

Jerky!

When Xiao Qi heard this, his eyes lit up instantly. He clenched his fist and waved it a few times: "Leave it to me!"

Ling Changge raised the corners of his lips slightly and said with a smile: "Go! Pikachu."

Pikachu?

"What the hell is this?"

Ling Changge did not answer. She thought about it and saw the contract formation beside her light up. Seeing this, Gu Junyao knew that Ling Changge could not hold on any longer. Her contracted beast was still young and was no match for the giant python. He was about to take action when suddenly a powerful aura appeared from Ling Changge's side.

"Buzz!"

A beast that looked like a tiger, had the shape of an ox, and had horns like a deer appeared beside Ling Changge. It exuded a ferocious aura and had overwhelming spiritual power.

This... is this the ferocious beast Qiongqi?

Gu Junyao was shocked. Qiongqi was actually one of her contracted beasts!

"Whether you can have jerky to eat depends on you."

"Master, please watch!" Xiao Qiongqi looked at the giant python. At this moment, the giant python had turned into a huge piece of dried meat in his eyes. Xiao Qiongqi licked his lips and said with a smile: "Meat! Here I come!"
