Chapter 26: Ambergris Horror

The moment the jade box was opened, Zheng Qiuyu's heart was still in turmoil.

The ground beneath my feet began to shake violently without any warning.

Rumble——

The sound did not come from far away, but from deep underground, as if a giant beast that had been sleeping for a thousand years was turning over.

Debris rolled down the mountain wall, and the spiritual spring beside her began to bubble wildly.

Zheng Qiuyu's face turned pale, and he immediately turned around and rushed to Shaohuo, holding his thin body tightly in his arms.

An indescribable breath of primitive times, mixed with the smell of earth, gushed out from the ground.

The ground in front of her, where the Wang Lingquan was, suddenly arched upward into a huge mound.

The cracks spread.

"roar--"

A soul-shaking roar erupted from the crack.

A huge head covered with thick rock scales broke out of the ground.

That was no ordinary snake head.

Its scales are rocks, rough, thick, covered with moss and traces of time.

His eyes were like molten gold, burning with a thousand-year-old rage.

Xuanyan giant python.

Its huge body emerged from the ground section by section, and every movement made the entire valley tremble.

The terrifying pressure of the Spirit Transformation Stage was like a real tsunami, hitting Zheng Qiuyu wave after wave.

Her body was shaking uncontrollably and her teeth were chattering.

This was no longer a power gap that she could measure with strategy.

This is the powerlessness of an ant looking up at the sky.

The giant python's golden vertical pupils were fixed on the jade box in her hand.

That's its thing.

Zheng Qiuyu forced himself to calm down, his brain working rapidly.

She tried to mobilize the Word Spirit System.

"This grass is harmful to you, leave quickly."

As soon as the thought was sent out, the movement of the Xuanyan Python paused slightly.

A hint of human disdain flashed in its golden vertical pupils.

"hiss--"

It let out a roar, and its huge body came pressing forward with the momentum to crush everything.

[System prompt: The target's mind is firm, but the credibility of his words is insufficient.]

Zheng Qiuyu's heart sank to the bottom.

Word spirits are almost ineffective against it.

She held the burning flame in her arms and could only rely on her relatively agile body to dodge awkwardly between the boulders.

Each attack of the python requires no skill.

It is the purest power.

The giant tail swept across, and a bottomless ravine appeared on the mountain wall.

The hard rock turned into powder when the head hit it.

Every time Zheng Qiuyu dodged, he was dancing on the edge of death.

The burning flame in her arms groaned in pain as it vibrated violently.

He was too weak to offer any support.

Now, he is her biggest burden.

Zheng Qiuyu gritted his teeth, there was no despair in his eyes, only a ruthlessness that came from being forced into a desperate situation.

She couldn't die here.

She carefully observed the python's attack pattern.

Amazing defense and terrifying power.

But its movements are relatively slow.

And after each heavy blow, the body will be stiff for a very short time.

Chance.

Just as she was looking for an opportunity, a cold gaze came from the direction of the valley entrance.

Zheng Qiuyu's heart skipped a beat and he looked up suddenly.

Elder Wang.

He stood at the entrance of the valley, his Taoist robes fluttering in the chaotic air currents, his eyes flashing with undisguised malice and ecstasy.

He saw Zheng Qiuyu fighting with the Xuanyan Python, and the muscles on his face were twisted with excitement.

He was certain that Zheng Qiuyu was dead.

He didn't even rush to make a move, just stood there, as if enjoying a good show.

Reap the benefits while you can.

Zheng Qiuyu's heart was completely chilled.

There is a giant python in front and a jackal behind.

A truly desperate situation.

The Black Rock Python seemed to have noticed her distraction, and its patience was exhausted.

It let out a furious roar, and its huge tail, with a sonic boom that tore through the air, swept over from an angle that Zheng Qiuyu had absolutely no way of avoiding.

There's no way to avoid it.

Zheng Qiuyu's pupils shrank sharply, and he subconsciously turned the burning body in front of him, using his back to meet the fatal blow.

Bang!

The imagined torn to pieces did not come true.

An indescribable pain exploded from her back, and she was thrown away like a kite with a broken string.

His body hit the stone wall hard and rolled to the ground.

"puff."

A mouthful of blood spurted out, staining the ground in front of him red.

It was as if all my internal organs had shifted.

Just when her consciousness was about to blur, the burning fire in her arms and the love chain mark between her eyebrows suddenly lit up.

An invisible barrier with a chaotic aura, almost invisible to the naked eye, instantly enveloped her.

[[Word Spirit·Protect] command is initially triggered.]

A hint of doubt flashed in the golden vertical pupils of the Xuanyan Python. It seemed that it didn't understand why this fragile human was not beaten into a pulp by its tail.

Elder Wang at the entrance of the valley also saw the fleeting chaos barrier.

He was startled, but then an even crueler sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"That's perfect, let both of you suffer losses!"

He no longer concealed his aura, but made hand gestures and muttered something.

In the valley, some hidden formation runes that he had set up in advance began to glow slightly.

He is weakening the Black Rock Python.

Meanwhile, he was waiting.

Waiting for the opportunity for Zheng Qiuyu and that "husband" to exhaust their last bit of strength.

Zheng Qiuyu endured the severe pain and lay on the ground.

The chaos barrier on her back gave her a chance to breathe.

Her brain, stimulated by the severe pain, became clearer than ever before.

Python's weakness.

Its entire body is covered in rocky scales. Its only weakness could only be...

eyes, or mouth.

Zheng Qiuyu's eyes were fixed on the giant python's bloody mouth.

She wants to take a gamble.

She used all her strength to hold up her upper body and used her words, this time not to deceive, but to provoke.

"The spiritual herb you have guarded for a thousand years is now mine!"

This sentence seemed to have ignited a powder keg.

The Xuanyan Python was completely enraged.

The greatest insult to a treasure that has been guarded for thousands of years has been taken away.

"roar--!"

It roared to the sky and opened its bloody mouth that was big enough to swallow an elephant, and a strong fishy smell hit its face.

Now is the time!

Zheng Qiuyu seized this opportunity.

She took out a pill from her bosom. It was a highly poisonous substance that she had extracted using modern chemical knowledge and disguised with sect materials.

She used up her last bit of strength and swung her arms violently.

The black poison pill turned into a stream of light and was thrown accurately into the deep throat of the giant python at lightning speed.

The roar of the Xuanyan Python suddenly stopped.

For the first time, confusion appeared in its golden vertical pupils.

Next second.

Intense pain erupted from its body.

The toxicity kicked in.

“Ahhhh!!!”
