Chapter 353 355 Flame Python
The Fire Python's territory is located in a rugged mountainous area with no grass. The climate in that area is dry and hot. The surface of the largest mountain in the middle is composed of large chunks of red rocks and black flaky rock plates interspersed among the red rocks. From a distance, the red rocks look like burning flames. According to the introduction on the parchment map, there may be a magma pool under this mountain. The Fire Python swallows the underground magma to practice and evolve.
Ning Qingyun and his companions brought the exotic beasts they had hunted previously as bait, and then Ning Qingyun set up a formation trap around the bait. Unfortunately, the bait failed this time. The fire python was not interested in the strong smell of blood at the foot of the mountain and showed no signs of coming out of the mountain.
Judging from the distribution of this mountain area, the most likely place for the Fire Python to live is the highest mountain in the middle.
"Boss, I'll go lure it out." Zhang Shouyi volunteered.
"No need, you guys wait here, I'll go up and take a look." Ning Qingyun raised his hand to stop Zhang Shouyi's actions.
During this period, Zhang Shouyi and others accompanied him in attacking the territories of exotic beasts and collecting the keys to secret realms. With new and old injuries, his body has never fully recovered. The fire python he has to deal with this time is covered with hard scales and can spit flames, making it very difficult to deal with.
"Boss, please be careful." Yang Ping warned worriedly.
When they first entered the secret realm and reunited with the boss, the boss's mood was relatively stable, but recently, he has become more and more anxious.
Ning Qingyun stepped onto the tallest black and red mountain in the middle and stepped on a huge red rock. His boots made a "hiss" sound and a puff of white smoke came out. It felt like his boots were burned. He took out a piece of raw meat from the gem space and threw it on the stone. With a series of "crackling" sounds, the bloody piece of meat began to smoke and produce oil, and soon turned into a fragrant piece of barbecued meat.
The boots Ning Qingyun was wearing were obtained from the underground palace. They were a treasure with defensive functions. Unexpectedly, they also had heat-insulating effects.
Those red stones under his feet could actually roast the meat in a short time. No wonder the surrounding temperature was so hot. Ning Qingyun tried his best to step on the black area and move forward. After a few steps, he was sweating. The sweat on his forehead soaked the hair on his forehead. The hot mood could make people more anxious. He walked around the mountain several times but found nothing. Except for the hot red stones and flaky black rock slabs, he did not find anything else, nor did he hear any unusual movements, let alone the nest of the fire python.
Could it be that their previous inference was wrong? Ning Qingyun came down the mountain and took Yang Ping and the others to search the area back and forth, but still found nothing.
Ning Qingyun frowned and thought. The strange beasts in the secret realm have a strong sense of territory. They will not leave their territory easily, nor will they allow other creatures to set foot in their territory. They have been wandering around the Fire Python's territory for a long time, so why can't they see the Fire Python?
"Boss, do you think the highest mountain in the middle is much shorter?" Wang Yang said hesitantly.
Ning Qingyun turned around and saw that there seemed to be a piece missing from the top of the mountain. "Be alert," Ning Qingyun reminded.
"Boss, look, what's that over there in the trap?" Yang Ping said with a trembling voice.
Ning Qingyun and others looked in the direction of Yang Ping's finger, and saw a pure black giant python swallowing the bait in the trap in one gulp. As the giant python swam, the black and red mountain became shorter and shorter. It turned out that the black part of the mountain was the body of the fire python. The fire python was entangled on the red rocks to form the black and red mountain.
As the fire python's body unfolded, the red rocks rolled around.
The Fire Python swallowed the bait prepared by Ning Qingyun and his team. However, the formation set up by Ning Qingyun failed to trap the Fire Python. The Fire Python's seemingly endless body easily destroyed the formation.
"What I'm looking for should be there. You guys stay by the side and I'll go look for it." Ning Qingyun pointed at the shiny things that were revealed at the original location of the mountain belly after the Fire Python's body unfolded, and said to Yang Ping and the others.
After Ning Qingyun finished speaking, he jumped up and flew towards the belly of the mountain.
Ning Qingyun jumped a few times and came to the pile of shiny things. It seemed that this should be the treasure trove of the Fire Python. Although he didn't know whether the key was here or not, he planned to collect these things first regardless of whether they were there or not.
Unfortunately, Ning Qingyun had just arrived nearby when the fire python discovered his tracks. It roared angrily and rushed over like a gust of wind.
Ning Qingyun swung his Ruyi Double Rings and fought with the Fire Python. It was a tough battle for Ning Qingyun. The huge size of the Fire Python made people feel powerless. After a fight, Ning Qingyun was injured and temporarily left the battlefield.
"Boss, is your injury serious? Otherwise, let's withdraw today and come back another day." Yang Ping asked worriedly as he looked at the injury on Ning Qingyun's arm.
The fire python spewed out flames, forming a fire scene nearby. They couldn't get close at all. They watched Ning Qingyun rush into the sea of fire again and again, anxiously but unable to help. Now seeing that Ning Qingyun was seriously injured, they couldn't help but persuade him.
"No need. I have found its weakness. Now I just need to grind it slowly, and I will definitely kill it." Ning Qingyun said gritting his teeth.
Although the Fire Python has a huge body and is covered with scales, making it difficult to break its defense, it is not without weaknesses. Ning Qingyun's combat instincts, which he had honed in his previous battle with the black-armored puppet in the underground palace, came in handy here. Through several test attacks, Ning Qingyun has basically figured out the Fire Python's weaknesses.
When the huge body of the Fire Python fell to the ground with a bang, Ning Qingyun's legs and hands trembled. Feeling the gradually rising temperature around him, he barely managed to put the Fire Python's collection into the gem space. Ning Qingyun used his last bit of strength to jump out of the battlefield. As soon as he jumped out, he heard a "boom" behind him. A raging flame ignited in the huge body of the Fire Python. In an instant, flames shot up into the sky and heat waves rolled. Ning Qingyun's hair, which was still on the edge, was curled up by the flames.
Yang Ping and others had been waiting on the side. Seeing that Ning Qingyun was exhausted, they quickly carried him on their backs and fled from the fire.
Fortunately, they ran fast, and the fire kept expanding, and in a blink of an eye it spread to the entire Fire Python territory.
