A blinding sphere of light, carrying a devastating force, hurtled towards the giant python. The python twisted its massive body, trying to dodge this fatal blow, but the sphere was too fast; it had no time to evade and could only watch helplessly as it approached.
"boom!"
The orb of light didn't strike the giant python directly, but instead exploded in front of Ning Yu and Mu Xue, forming a semi-transparent energy barrier. The barrier shimmered with iridescent light, faintly revealing scenes of mountains and rivers—Ning Yu's beautiful vision of the future world.
The giant python's attack slammed into the barrier with a deafening roar, as if it would tear the entire world apart. The barrier trembled violently, rippling as if it might shatter at any moment.
"Ning Yu!" Mu Xue's face turned pale. She could feel the immense pressure coming from the barrier, a force that seemed to want to crush them into dust.
Ning Yu's eyes were tightly closed, large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. He was doing his utmost to maintain the barrier and withstand the giant python's attacks. He knew that the barrier wouldn't last long, and he had to find an opportunity to counterattack as soon as possible.
"roar--!"
Seeing its attack thwarted, the giant python grew even more enraged. It lashed its tail wildly, ramming the barrier again and again. Each impact made the barrier tremble more violently, and Ning Yu's face grew even paler.
Mu Xue looked around anxiously, hoping to find something to help Ning Yu. However, all she could see was the desolate Gobi Desert.
"Damn it!" Mu Xue gritted her teeth, feeling utterly powerless.
Suddenly, her gaze fell upon a large rock not far away. The rock had a peculiar shape, as if...
"Ning Yu!" Mu Xue seemed to have thought of something, a glint of light flashing in her eyes. "Why don't you try and see if you can..."
Each impact of the giant python was like a mountain collapsing, and the cracks on the barrier grew more numerous and larger, as if it would shatter completely at any moment. Ning Yu felt his consciousness beginning to blur, and the power within him flicker like a candle in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.
"Hold on, Ning Yu!" Mu Xue's voice echoed in my ears, trembling slightly but full of determination, "We can definitely defeat it!"
Ning Yu gritted his teeth, enduring the waves of dizziness that surged through his mind, desperately trying to hold up the crumbling barrier. He knew he couldn't fall; if he did, both he and Mu Xue would perish in the snake's belly.
"We must find its weakness!" Ning Yu forced himself to calm down and carefully observed the giant python's every move.
Although the python's attacks were incredibly ferocious, they were not without strategy. After each full-force attack, it would pause briefly, as if gathering its strength to prepare for the next strike.
"Now!" A bold idea surged into Ning Yu's mind.
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the surging blood within him, and focused his attention on the giant python. He discovered that every time the python paused, there was a barely perceptible pause at its vital spot, where its heart would be.
“That is…” Ning Yu’s pupils contracted slightly, and a guess began to form in his mind.
He dared not be negligent. While trying his best to maintain the collapsing barrier, he secretly mobilized the last of his strength, preparing to launch a fatal attack when the giant python paused again.
The giant python slammed into the barrier once more, producing a deafening roar. The barrier trembled violently, cracks spread rapidly, and it looked as if it was about to shatter completely.
"Ning Yu!" Mu Xue exclaimed, her eyes filled with worry and anxiety.
Ning Yu remained silent, staring intently at the giant python, waiting for that fleeting opportunity.
Finally, the giant python paused again, gathering its strength in preparation for the next attack.
"Now!"
A cold glint flashed in Ning Yu's eyes, and he growled, "Xue'er, cover me!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Xue immediately understood. Her hands moved swiftly, forming hand seals and chanting incantations. A powerful spiritual energy wave emanated from her, forming an invisible barrier that enveloped the giant python.
The giant python sensed the pressure of this mental energy, its movements involuntarily halting, and it let out an angry roar. Its massive body twisted violently, trying to break free from Mu Xue's mental energy restraints.
"Now, Ning Yu!" Mu Xuejiao shouted, fine beads of sweat appearing on her forehead, clearly indicating that maintaining this powerful mental strength was a great burden for her.
Ning Yu dared not be negligent. He took a deep breath and slowly gathered the remaining power in his body into his hands. Pale blue light flickered in his hands, like a star about to explode, emitting a heart-palpitating energy fluctuation.
His eyes were sharp as he stared intently at the giant python's vital spot, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
The giant python seemed to sense Ning Yu's intentions, a cunning glint flashing in its eyes. It suddenly stopped struggling, allowing Mu Xue's mental power to bind it, but the energy fluctuations within its body grew increasingly intense, like a volcano about to erupt.
"Not good! It's changing its attack rhythm!" Ning Yu was startled, as he keenly sensed the giant python's intention.
Sure enough, just as Ning Yu was about to make his move, the giant python suddenly let out a deafening roar, and the energy within its body surged wildly like a burst dam. It no longer paid attention to Mu Xue's mental suppression, but instead concentrated all its power on its next attack.
Ning Yu's expression changed. He realized that he had to readjust his strategy, or he would be put on the defensive.
"Xue'er, hold on!" Ning Yu roared. He decisively abandoned his original plan and began to mobilize the last of his strength to prepare for the giant python's storm-like attacks.
