Chen Ping looked at the solemn Ying Huo and laughed, "Oh dear, little Ying Huo really doesn't have much faith in me, which really breaks my heart. Don't worry, there's still the potion, isn't there? You've already tried it yourself, how was the effect? Wasn't it powerful? Now are you still sure I can't beat this little snake?"
Ying Huo paused for a moment, recalling the surge in her strength after taking the potion, and a slight wavering did indeed creep into her heart. She pouted and said with some doubt, "That potion is indeed powerful, but that dragon python... Alright, if you're really confident, then we'll give it a try, but we must be careful."
Chen Ping patted Ying Huo's head and comforted her, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Let's observe it first, find its weaknesses, and then make a plan."
The two stepped back, concealing themselves in the shadows of the cave, closely observing the enormous ice-branded serpent. A chilling mist enveloped its body, and its eyes, like two shimmering sapphires, radiated a terrifying coldness. Its body moved slowly, each twist causing the ground to tremble slightly; clearly, this was a tyrant who ruled this frozen realm.
The huge, ice-blue eyes looked at the fallen Pearl King Beast and a hint of doubt flashed across them. Logically speaking, its ice toxin should not have caused fatal damage to the Pearl King Beast, right?
After careful observation, Chen Ping whispered to Ying Huo, "Look at its abdomen. The ice armor there doesn't seem to be as sturdy as the other parts, which should be its weak point. Also, it doesn't move very fast. We might be able to find an opportunity by using our speed and agility."
Ying Huo nodded. Although she was still uneasy, Chen Ping's composure gave her a lot of courage. She gripped her spear tightly, ready to strike at any moment.
Ying Huo suddenly remembered something and whispered to Chen Ping, "By the way, Chen Ping, I read about the Ice-Blazing Dragon Python in a book. Although its abdomen is one of its weaknesses, its defense is actually quite good. The Ice-Blazing Dragon Python's real weakness is actually the dragon ball on its forehead."
After speaking, Ying Huo paused, then pointed with her small hand and said, "Chen Ping, look, it's that ice-blue bead. If we break it or take it off, the Ice Brand Dragon Python's strength will be reduced by at least one-third."
"However, I remember that the dragon ball on it was some kind of rare treasure, but I don't know its specific function."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ping looked over and, sure enough, there was an ice-blue bead on the forehead of the Ice-Blazing Dragon Python, which looked like a valuable item.
"In that case, let's give it a try first. If it doesn't work, we'll figure out a way to break the bead. Hmm, I'll distract it first, and you can attack its abdomen when you have the chance." Chen Ping quickly arranged the tactics.
Upon hearing this, Ying Huo's face turned serious, and she nodded earnestly.
With the plan in place, Chen Ping deliberately exposed himself to attract the attention of the Ice-Bat Dragon Python.
The Ice-Blazing Python's attention was immediately diverted from the corpse of the Pearl King Beast. Looking at Chen Ping, it roared angrily, and its massive body quickly rolled towards Chen Ping, bringing with it a biting cold wind.
Chen Ping nimbly dodged, while constantly provoking the dragon-python with words, guiding it to chase him through the cave.
Seeing that the dragon python's attention was completely drawn to Chen Ping, Ying Huo, like a silver lightning bolt, used his understanding of the Ice Brand Dragon Python's attack habits to silently circle around to its side, aiming at its slightly vulnerable abdomen. He gathered all his strength in his spear and struck swiftly!
With a loud "bang," the spear pierced deep into the belly of the Ice-Branded Dragon Python, sending ice shards flying. A huge gash burst open. Ying Huo's face lit up with joy at the sight, and she quickly retreated. Her small frame couldn't withstand the blow. Fortunately, the weapon was of good quality and could break through the abdominal defenses.
The python roared in pain, its fury shaking the heavens. The intense pain from its wounds caused it to writhe involuntarily, smashing the surrounding cave walls and cracking them open. However, this also caused more of the python's abdomen to be exposed.
Hiss~
The Ice-Blazing Dragon Python glared at Chen Ping with hatred. Then, the dragon pearl on its huge forehead began to glow, and a breath was exhaled from its mouth, rushing directly towards Chen Ping.
Faced with the Ice-Blazing Dragon Python's frosty breath, Chen Ping nimbly leaped into the air, using the rock walls of the cave as a springboard to bounce back and skillfully trace an arc in the air, easily dodging the icy attack that could freeze anything.
He knew that under normal circumstances, without revealing his strength, directly confronting an attack of this level would be tantamount to asking for trouble. Only by being flexible and mobile could he gain the upper hand in such a battle.
"Ying Huo, now!" Chen Ping shouted, simultaneously stopping abruptly and using the instantaneous recoil to leap from the side of the Ice-Blazing Dragon Python, heading straight for the dragon pearl on its forehead. His speed was at its peak, like a bolt of lightning, his target clear and aimed directly at its vitals.
Upon receiving the signal, Ying Huo did not hesitate. Her spear drew a silver arc in the air and plunged into the wound on the Ice Brand Dragon Python's abdomen once again. This time, she poured all her strength into the spear tip, attempting to further expand the victory and distract the dragon python.
The sudden pain did cause the Ice-Blazing Dragon Python to pause for a moment, but it was clear that the Ice-Blazing Dragon Python knew the importance of the Dragon Pearl, so it ignored Ying Huo and instead charged straight at him, casually pressing the wound on its abdomen under its body. Although this was also painful, at least it could endure it.
Seeing this, Ying Huo was somewhat at a loss, but she only panicked for a moment. Since the attack on her abdomen couldn't break through, she decided to attack her body instead. She refused to believe that she couldn't break through the defense.
bite!
The gun tip collided with the scales, producing a metallic clanging sound, which shows just how hard the scales were.
......
On the other side, just as Chen Ping was about to touch the Dragon Ball, the Ice-Blazing Dragon Python seemed to sense a deadly threat. It roared and swung its head violently, trying to shake off Chen Ping.
However, Chen Ping was prepared. He cleverly used the swaying of the opponent's head to his advantage, and like a leech, he stuck tightly to the forehead of the Ice Brand Dragon Python. One of his hands had already touched the dragon pearl that emitted a ghostly light.
"Now!" Chen Ping shouted, straining his fingers to pry the dragon ball out. But the dragon ball seemed to be connected to the life force of the Ice Brand Dragon Python. Even Chen Ping felt a powerful backlash coming from his palm, causing him to groan involuntarily.
At the same time, the Ice-Blazing Python began to writhe wildly due to excruciating pain and panic, causing the entire cave to shake as if an earthquake had struck, with ice chips and rocks falling everywhere, creating an extremely dangerous situation.
Seeing this, Ying Huo knew something was wrong. She quickly withdrew from the belly of the Ice-Blazing Dragon Python, flipped over, and soared into the air again. With all her remaining strength, she hurled the spear at the dragon ball on her forehead!
