Chapter 311: Beheading the Python and Battling the Water Monster!
The giant python had underestimated Ling Yun previously and knew better than to commit the same mistake. This time, it turned its head and avoided a head-on collision with the steel nails. All four steel nails hit its head but fell as though they hit an iron wall.
Ling Yun threw the steel nails out once again but was met with the same defense. The python was emboldened since it didn't sustain any injury this time.
At the same time, it attacked Ling Yun and Little White directly. Ling Yun knew that the brute force of the python was not something they could withstand.
Ling Yun thus jumped out of the away with Little White. He got Little White to escape into the distance. He gave the giant python a provocative look and sneered.
Ling Yun took the chance to take a good look around the crater.
He saw many wounds inflicted by humans on the giant python. Gunshot wounds and sword wounds made up most of its wounds. No wonder it had abandoned Little White to go after Ling Yun immediately upon sensing his presence.
The giant python hurled itself towards Ling Yun.
"I'm over here!" Ling Yun shouted and dodged about a meter away. Ling Yun got up and rode on the giant python unceremoniously when it fell onto the ground.
"F*ck, I'm losing my status. I used to ride on dragons in the clouds. Now I am riding on this small little snake on the ground. Be thankful!" Ling Yun laughed at himself as the giant python thrashed madly to shake Ling Yun off. However, Ling Yun managed to stay on the giant python easily.
"Since you're not able to come to terms, I'll dig out your heart and gut you while you're alive. There's probably no one around against animal cruelty."
Ling Yun calculated the distance between its heart and gut. He slid down the body of the snake and got to its midpoint. Ling Yun drew a circle and flicked the Emperor Brush up. The tough scales were breached, and a piece of snake meat the size of a football flew out!
When had the giant python ever sustained such serious injuries? It was in such pain that it flailed wildly, trying to toss Ling Yun off. Stinky snake blood spattered out from its wound. Ling Yun was about to search for its organs before he realized in shock that there was a human corpse in its body! Ling Yun knitted his eyebrows and cursed himself for being so unlucky.
Ling Yun would never let Little White nor himself eat the heart and guts of such a snake!
"I don't know how many people you have devoured. I'll do a good deed for once and take revenge for them!"
Ling Yun inserted the Emperor Brush into the giant python once again and slit it. This time, he slid the Emperor Brush down to seven inches from the head of the python.
Seven inches from its head was its weakness. It was unable to protect it since its head could not reach it.
The giant python straightened its body and madly slammed onto the ground with all its might. It wanted to kill Ling Yun through the impact!
Ling Yun would not let it happen. He switched to the other side of the giant python and stabbed the weak point repeatedly with the Emperor Brush!
The giant python was miserable. It could not shake Ling Yun off no matter what it did. Its body fell heavily onto the rocks when it finally lost its energy from blood loss and its destroyed heart.
This battle left Ling Yun covered with stinky snake blood. He turned towards Little White. "Accompany me to wash my clothes before we leave this place."
Little White stared at the places where Ling Yun had stabbed it. It didn't seem willing to move. Ling Yun could only say awkwardly, "Erm... Little White, we cannot eat the heart and gut of this python. Do you understand?"
Little White lifted her head and looked at Ling Yun with her seductive eyes. She was obviously wondering why she couldn't eat the heart and gut of the snake.
Ling Yun knew he couldn't avoid the conversation. He gave a sigh and said in a low voice, "It has tasted human meat before. Therefore, we can only kill it but not eat it!"
Little White might still be a fox now, but she would be able to transform soon. Ling Yun would not allow her to eat this rubbish.
If this giant python had the possibility to become a Scaly Dragon[1.Scaly Dragon refers to a legendary dragon with the ability to control rain and floods] in the future, Ling Yun would have harvested its essence. That would have been beneficial for both of their cultivations. However, Ling Yun knew that this python was far from it.
Little White seemed to have understood the meaning behind Ling Yun's actions and resolutely gave up the desire for the snake heart and gut. She trotted behind Ling Yun towards the river.
The snake blood from Ling Yun's body scared the toads away, saving Ling Yun the trouble of fighting them.
The water rushed on as loud as thunder!
Ling Yun came to the river side. The first thing he did was to kick a huge stone that weighed a few hundred pounds into the river. The stone was carried away by the water and disappeared before it could even sink.
Ling Yun frowned. He took out a Fire Talisman and slapped it onto a nearby tree. It lit up after the incarnation was chanted, and now it was bright enough for him to survey the environment.
The rock had been completely swallowed by the river. In that case, how deep was the river?!
Moreover, there was no blockage of the river even though such a large number of rocks kept falling down. Was it because the riverbed sank along with it, or was it because they had been swept away by the currents?
Ling Yun pondered for a moment and came to the conclusion that it was the former. He couldn't believe that the current could sweep away rocks larger than a hundred meters wide!
Ling Yun was a research enthusiast, but he really had no time to think more about it. He had to search for the Earth Yin Grass which was growing where the Dark Yin Qi accumulated.
There couldn't just be one giant python. Ling Yun was still in danger.
He desperately needed the Dark Yin Qi to break through to Physique Tempering Stage Four. He would find time to explore other things after he mastered the Yin-Yang harmony balance.
Ling Yun took off his sportswear and went to a piece of black rock at the edge of the river. He started washing his clothes.
He was at it for only a few moments before he realized that his ankle was submerged in the blink of an eye.
"What the f*ck! It's high tide?!" Ling Yun grumbled but realized that something was not right.
It wasn't f*cking high tide. The rock underneath him was collapsing! Wasn't this a f*cking rock!?
It was too late. The black rock gave away, leaving half of Ling Yun body in the water. He was swept more than ten meters away!
The current was strong and fast, but that black thing in the water was even faster!
A huge splash was heard. A huge mouth full of sharp fangs came for Ling Yun in the water!
"What the f*ck is that!?"
The currents were strong in this bottomless pit of water. Ling Yun knew from one look at the giant fangs that even that giant python would be snapped in half!
Little White's visibility wasn't affected by the darkness. She chased after Ling Yun, who was clearly in terrible danger!
Ling Yun was washed up more than three meters away from the shore. At this point, he was really beating himself up for failing to bring a bigger weapon.
The Emperor Brush had great penetrative powers. However, in the face of such a large water monster, it could probably only inflict a minor injury.
He had been too careless!
Ling Yun had a brainwave as he saw the big mouth coming at him again. He dove underwater.
His eyes burnt from the speed of the currents, but he ignored it and stared straight at the water monster.
It was humongous. Its head was as big as a car!
The water monster was agile as well. It appeared right in front of Ling Yun with a gentle sway of its tail! It opened its mouth wide in an attempt to bite Ling Yun once again!
What the f*ck! Do you really think I can't do anything to you?!Ling Yun thought to himself anxiously. He stored the Emperor Brush away, invoked the Stellar Condensation Technique to its maximum and shot himself into the mouth of the water monster!
"You think you can eat me? I'll tear you apart while you're alive!"
Ling Yun put one hand onto the water monster's hard palate and the other onto its tongue. Then he slammed as hard as he could on both sides!
