Ling Ning paused, and Xia Shiqing also noticed something strange. The two looked at each other for a moment, and both understood what the other was thinking. In the flash of lightning, Xia Shiqing suddenly rushed towards Ling Ning, stopped his waist and took him away from the wooden man.

At the same time, there was a loud noise behind him, and the two-meter-tall blue wooden man was destroyed by a huge shadow!

Fortunately, Xia Shiqing reacted very quickly. If she took half a breath, the two of them would have been torn apart like wooden figures!

With the help of scattered light spots, one can clearly see a huge python suddenly appearing behind the two people, destroying the wooden man. This giant python is white all over, with red eyes, and is more than three meters tall with its head raised.

, more than one meter wide, with no tail visible at a glance! It’s hard to imagine how such a giant python appeared quietly behind the two of them. Perhaps it had been approaching secretly in the mire, or it was crawling slowly on the vines.

It was expected that he would not notice anything in front of such an ancient and cold-blooded top hunter.

Xia Shiqing tightly grasped the vines on the rock wall with one hand and hugged Ling Ning's waist with the other. She whispered: "Will this affect your waist injury?"

Ling Ning felt a soreness in her waist. She knew that her waist was still unable to use its strength and she could not fight with the giant python.

"It doesn't matter, but... I'm afraid I'll drag you down... It's better..."

Xia Shiqing shook her head silently. Ling Ning also knew that she would never abandon him no matter what, so she stopped saying the rest of the sentence.

The scarlet eyes of the giant python were focused on the two of them, and it was spitting out purple messages and approaching them. Although the python's eyesight was extremely poor, it accurately re-locked the position of the two of them through thermal induction, even if it was

Staying still won't help.

In this muddy quagmire, this giant python undoubtedly has the upper hand. Escape is not the best option for the two of them. It is better to fight with all their strength!

Ling Ning said: "Put me down and I will use Wood Escape to restrain it!"

Xia Shiqing nodded in agreement. She stared at the giant python intently, waiting for its next attack.

The giant python raised its head and opened its bloody mouth, and a suffocating stench hit their faces! Then the giant python rushed towards the two of them!

There was another flash of lightning, and Xia Shiqing hugged Ling Ning to avoid it! She placed Ling Ning in the mire, then climbed up with a long sword in her hand, and stabbed the giant python's huge body with one sword!

"puff!"

This sword actually seemed to be pierced on a spring wrapped in flesh. The long sword curved and slid smoothly through the body of the giant python, leaving no trace at all!

At the same time, Ling Ning quickly made his fingerprints!

"Wooden Release·Wooden Man's Technique!"

The huge green wood soared into the sky from the mire! It instantly withstood the giant python's open mouth, and then the green wood suddenly changed, turning into a wooden man and hugging the giant python with both hands!

The giant python curled up and its muscles bulged, and the wooden man immediately made a harsh "crunching" sound, obviously overwhelmed!

"Shi Qing, back away! Use fire!" Ling Ning said hurriedly.

Xia Shiqing understood and jumped back a few meters, and then the two of them formed seals together!

"Spiritual Fire·Fire Dance!"

"Spirit Fire·Explosive Flame Bomb!"

After practicing according to the method taught by the Palace Master, Ling Ning's understanding of the five basic attributes has deepened a lot, especially the fire attribute. After obtaining the demon fire, he has become increasingly sophisticated and can easily use the "Spirit" level one.

Taoism.

Compared with the lowest level of "Ju" level Taoism, the "Spirit" level consumes less, but both the power and range are doubled. It can be said that this level of Taoism has truly entered the realm of "cultivating immortals".

Well, it was just a small fight before.

Both of these flames fell accurately on the giant python and swept through the whole body in an instant. The giant python's huge body struggled desperately in the flames. Finally, the wooden man exploded with a "crunch"! The giant python's huge body was uncontrollable.

The impact hit the rock wall, and the entire rock wall shook. A large amount of rocks and soil slid down the rock wall. The giant python let out a heart-rending hissing sound. This sound echoed in the cave, which was frightening.

!

Ling and Xia carefully avoided the rocks sliding down the rock wall. At the same time, they waited carefully for the giant python that was struggling and roaring in the flames until its huge body fell to the ground and never stood up again.

The flame became smaller and smaller, and the dark smoke quickly filled the entire space. Ling Ning waved his sleeves, and a strong wind blew away the large amount of smoke. I saw that the giant python had long been turned into a blackened statue, which was still

The unextinguished spark is like orange-red hot metal gradually cooling and turning into pitch black.

Ling Ning stared at the remaining body of the giant python. The blackened body suddenly broke apart. Looking inside from the cracked part, it was actually empty, with no bones or flesh at all!

"No, this is snake slough!"

Although Ling Ning realized this, it was already over! Xia Shiqing's painful voice sounded behind him, and her body was picked up by a huge force, and then she fell hard against the rock wall!

Xia Shiqing vomited a large mouthful of blood, like a discarded rag doll, and fell weakly on the hard mud ground blackened by the flames. Then the giant python's huge head appeared again and suddenly attacked her!

Almost at the same time, Xia Shiqing also made her fingerprints!

"Spiritual Wood·Double Wall!"

Two green trees suddenly rushed out from both sides to protect her, and hit everything with the giant python's attack!

"boom!"

This blow caused a large area of ​​turbulence, and the vision was blurred for a while, but Ling Ning still rushed forward to check the situation regardless of his waist injury.

"Shiqing!"

"do not come!"

Xia Shiqing was covered in blood. She tried her best to raise her head and look up at the giant python that was about to attack, and made hand seals with her hands!

In a daze, Ling Ning seemed to see the scene when his father fell in front of him. He desperately wanted to do something, but now it was too late to form the seal! He unconsciously looked at the raised head of the giant python, and there was a blur in the smoke.

The shadow was looming above its head. Although he couldn't figure out what it was, he suddenly realized that it was that shadow controlling the giant python!

"asshole!"

With Ling Ning's roar, the stone sword that had been lost in the battle suddenly appeared in his hand, as if it "grew" out of thin air from his palm!

In the blink of an eye, the stone sword turned into a "broken star" and with his roar, it turned into a sharp meteor and shot toward the shadow hovering above the python's head!

Two green trees jumped out of the quagmire to meet the giant mouth that was biting fiercely. They shattered like crispy bamboo shoots meeting an iron plate, but they also slowed down the giant python's attack a little bit. Just for a little while, "Whoa!"

!" A sound of broken stars pierced the shadow and nailed it to the stone wall!

The giant python's head that was supposed to continue its attack suddenly froze! It shook its head as if trying to drive away something.

"Shiqing! Are you okay!" Ling Ning rushed towards Xia Shiqing and nervously checked the injuries on her body.

Xia Shiqing looked at the confused look of the giant python. After confirming that it would not attack again, she said to Ling Ning: "It's okay, it's just... it's just that the guy bit her leg through."

Ling Ning tore open her trouser legs, and a bloody hole suddenly appeared on her skin that was as fair as snow. It was as if a pool of red spring water suddenly gushes out of the boundless holy snow field, and the spring water that keeps pouring out dyes the snow field bit by bit.

Into a bright red.

Ling Ning took out the wound medicine and quickly stopped the bleeding, and wrapped it carefully with a bandage. She breathed a sigh of relief when everything was bandaged properly.

He raised his head and saw Xia Shiqing looking at him blankly, and couldn't help but asked with concern: "What? Does it hurt too much?"

Xia Shiqing looked away, shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's just a skin injury, so don't be too nervous."

Ling Ning grinned slightly with a bitter smile on his face. He shook his head and tried to dispel the image of his father's tragic death in his mind. When he raised his head again, he found that the giant python had disappeared.

"That guy is missing?"

"Well, it's gone. It doesn't seem to want to attack us. Is your back injury okay?"

"It won't be too much of a problem if you don't do strenuous activities."

Ling Ning helped her up. Compared to his waist injury, her leg injury seemed more serious.

"Can you move around?"

"fine."

Xia Shiqing's eyes turned to the struggling shadow on the rock wall that was penetrated by the long sword Broken Star. She recognized it a little and blurted out: "So it's it!"

Its transparent figure gradually appeared under the stain of blood. It was the big snake she had encountered on the mountain! She had saved the green toad that could only speak human language from its mouth. She thought it must have come.

Revenge yourself.

"Have you seen this snake? It's strange, why is its body transparent?"

Xia Shiqing briefly explained how she encountered it, and Ling Ning was amazed when she heard it.

"This guy really has some skills. He didn't freeze to death under the Broken Star. It's really extraordinary. And he can control such a huge python. What's the origin of it?"

"I don't know about this either. What's even more strange is that its snake skin is actually transparent, which is really rare."

"Not bad, hehe, but it's just too small to be made into a transparent robe. Well, maybe it can be made into a scabbard!"

The big snake seemed to understand the conversation between the two and struggled even more fiercely. The sword penetrated the rock wall so deeply that it could not escape no matter how hard it struggled.

Just when Ling Ning wanted to further end it, suddenly a strong wind swept from the depths of the cave! The whistling sound of the wind was like the groan of a hungry ghost, and the person who blew it could not open his eyes. The wind also carried

The thick fishy smell and the overwhelming pressure were like an invisible beast in the abyss suddenly raising its head to the sky and letting out a terrifying roar.

After the strong wind passed, everything returned to calm, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion. This strange wind came and went quickly. If the splashing mud hadn't left traces on the two of them, they would have almost thought that

He was hallucinating.

The calm came so quickly that even the big snake nailed to the rock wall didn't react for a moment. It was stunned for a moment, then woke up and nodded frantically at them, as if it was kowtowing in prayer.

Ling Ning and Xia Shiqing looked at each other. To be honest, they were a little confused. They didn't know what was in the depths of the cave, let alone whether the big snake in front of them would be harmful to them. But neither of them liked killing. It seemed that

It's not impossible to let him go.

"Are you begging us for mercy?" Ling Ning asked.
