There are now three options in front of you.
The first strategy is to attack the python while the rhinoceros is immobilized, thus avoiding being attacked by the rhinoceros.
The second option is to directly attack the immobile rhinoceros, which can end the battle relatively easily, but it makes one vulnerable to a sneak attack from the giant python.
Third, to be on the safe side, we should follow the same conditions as before when we succeeded: wait for the python and rhinoceros to separate before taking them down one by one...
Three seconds later, Shen Yunhao no longer hesitated and charged towards the rhinoceros stuck in the wall.
The reason is simple: choosing one of the other two options would be a waste of this golden opportunity!
He circled around to the side and rear of the ice crystal rhinoceros as fast as he could, leaped up, and landed directly on the rhinoceros's back. His eyes were fixed on the round crystal bead between its eyebrows. He took a deep breath and thrust his sword straight forward!
"Bang!"
The rhinoceros stuck in the wall was basically unable to put up any effective resistance. The crystal bead on its head shattered instantly, and its massive body, which had been stiff for a few seconds, collapsed with a thud, shattering into a pile of ice shards.
Having so easily taken down the Ice Sable and the Rhinoceros, Shen Yunhao couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.
However, just as he was about to use the same trick again and hide behind the crystal, a stream of icy blue liquid suddenly splashed onto him from behind!
Turning my head, I saw the Ice Crystal Python not far away with its huge mouth open, and some of the same liquid dripping from the corner of its mouth!
"Holy crap, this python can attack from a distance?"
Shen Yunhao didn't stop moving; he quickly hid behind a huge ice crystal.
But when I touched his back, it was warm to the touch, and I was immediately startled!
"It's hot... Oh no! I've been tagged!"
Alarm bells rang in Shen Yunhao's mind. The areas on his back where the ice python's liquid had stained his clothes were corroded, revealing the dragon python armor underneath, which was burning hot like a branding iron!
As a result, he was like a mobile furnace, radiating heat, and there was no way for him to avoid the giant python's heat perception using the ice crystal.
"hiss--!"
The Ice Crystal Python trembled silently once more, its entire body suddenly arching, its massive mouth opening wide, and the icy blue liquid shot out like arrows!
Shen Yunhao kicked off the ice wall and flipped to the side to dodge. The venom grazed his shoulder and flew past, and the ice crystals behind him were corroded with honeycomb-like holes.
Although he was not afraid of these corrosive venoms because of his heart of the vast ocean, the heat emitted by the burning would still cause him a great deal of physical damage!
"Under such surging cold air, this giant python is actually able to condense venom with a burning effect. Is this really in a river?"
We must act swiftly!
Seeing that there was no hope of escaping, Shen Yunhao gritted his teeth and, relying on his speed advantage, used the Guixue Sword to forcefully stab at the giant python's crystal core, leaving afterimages in its wake.
However, the ice crystal python suddenly curled up, its layers of ice armor protecting its seven-inch crystal core like a shield. When the sword blade struck the ice armor, the recoil almost caused Shen Yunhao's tiger's mouth to split open!
"Boom!" The python's tail swept across, and Shen Yunhao hurriedly blocked with his sword. He was sent flying more than ten feet away, his back slamming heavily against the rock wall, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
"This giant python... seems to have become smarter!"
Shen Yunhao's face was extremely ugly...
The Ice Crystal Python pressed its advantage, and as its body twisted, icicles hanging from the cave ceiling rained down like a storm. Shen Yunhao could only endure the pain and roll away to avoid them.
At that moment, he looked at the pit not far away.
"If I jump down... I can use the cold air inside to forcefully cool down, but the space inside is narrow, and if the giant python chases me in, I won't be able to hide at all!"
"puff……"
Another spurt of venom came flying, and Shen Yunhao dodged to the side. The venom sprayed onto a huge ice crystal wall not far away, corroding the wall once again.
"Wait... there seems to be something behind that wall!"
A faint blue light emanated from behind the corroded wall.
After thinking for a moment, he began to deliberately guide the ice crystal python to spray venom in that direction by maneuvering.
Before long, the wall was corroded and pitted, and the blue light behind it grew stronger and stronger.
"Click-clack...click-clack..."
At this moment, the giant python that was chasing closely behind made a cracking sound. Looking at its wide-open mouth, Shen Yunhao immediately guessed that it was a sign that the python had run out of venom!
"The opportunity has arrived!"
He abruptly stopped, facing the charging python, and silently counted in his mind.
Just as the giant python's bloody maw was about to swallow him whole, Shen Yunhao used all his strength to leap up, twisting his body and wrist in mid-air, and the Guixue Sword turned into a white light, shooting straight out!
However, the giant python, which had just been using its body to protect itself, now only had eyes for Shen Yunhao, who had leaped up, and completely ignored the Gui Xue sword that was shooting from the air!
As expected, due to the temperature difference, the giant python couldn't sense the presence of the Returning Snow Sword at all!
However... Shen Yunhao, who was in the air, could not use the giant python to dodge. If he were hit by the giant python at this moment, he would definitely be seriously injured, or even be killed directly!
This is an absolute gamble...
"Whoosh!"
The longsword pierced precisely into the seven-inch crystal core exposed by the attack, and the giant python's body froze instantly before shattering!
"Snap!"
Shen Yunhao was also sent flying backwards in mid-air, only stopping his momentum after crashing into three ice pillars. He was trapped in the ice pile, and blood flowed out along the ice shards, which then froze into ice crystals the next second.
The giant python was indeed thawed by the ice, but Shen Yunhao also took a real hit from it.
Whether Shen Yunhao won this high-stakes gamble or not, no one can say for sure...
But he still felt he had made a good deal.
After all, with the Vast Ocean Heart and those golden threads, as long as he wasn't killed outright, even the most severe injuries were acceptable to him.
Thinking of this, Shen Yunhao's head slumped, and he completely lost consciousness.
...
When Shen Yunhao woke up again, he didn't know how much time had passed.
However, his injuries have indeed mostly healed.
Only then did he breathe a heavy sigh of relief.
Before he lost consciousness, he was quite worried that other ice crystal beasts might appear here and "scaveng" the corpses.
Fortunately, none of my fears came true, and I survived.
After getting up and cleaning up, Shen Yunhao went directly to the "corpses" of several ice crystal beasts, which were actually just scattered ice crystals. Among them, several fragments of a different color were emitting blue light!
Shen Yunhao noticed these blue crystals when he killed the first ice crystal sable, but he was too busy chasing the other two giant beasts to pay attention to them.
Now, all three ice crystal beasts are dead, and the ground is covered with many blue crystals. I counted them, and there are forty-three in total. The ice crystal python alone dropped more than twenty of them, and some fell into the pits in the ground and cannot be found.
"A victory gained at the cost of health bars deserves some decent loot, right..."
Shen Yunhao picked up a piece at random, but before he could examine it closely, the blue crystal turned into a wisp of pure energy and disappeared.
"Huh? Holy crap?"
