Rise of the Otherworld.

The giant python lunged forward with its bloody maw gaping, stirring up a gust of fishy wind. The strong, nauseating smell instantly filled the air. Everyone panicked and scattered.

Zhang Hao reacted quickly, rolling sideways to avoid the python's attack and swinging his sword at it. However, the python's scales were extremely hard, and the sword only sent a few sparks flying. He only felt his arm numb from the recoil.

The woman quickly pulled the little girl back, her face pale. Her heartbeat was so rapid that it seemed like it was about to burst out of her throat.

Ling Yu hurriedly threw out several talismans, which turned into flames and flew towards the python, but the python nimbly twisted its body and easily avoided the flames. The flames dissipated in the air, leaving only a brief light and shadow.

The mysterious man took the opportunity to jump onto the python's back and tried to stab it with his dagger. However, the python swung its body hard, throwing the mysterious man away. The mysterious man's body arced in the air and hit the ground heavily, splashing a cloud of dust.

The old man shouted loudly: "Attack its eyes!" His voice was particularly loud in the tense atmosphere.

Hearing this, Zhang Hao rushed towards the python again to attract its attention. He dodged left and right under the python's attack, as if dancing on the edge of a knife.

The python was enraged, staring at Zhang Hao closely and attacking repeatedly, its tail sweeping and venom spurting from its mouth, each attack carrying a deadly threat.

Ling Yu and the mysterious man took the opportunity to flank the python from both sides, looking for a chance to attack its eyes. Their steps were light and agile, like cheetahs.

The woman, from a distance, cast a supporting spell for everyone, increasing their strength and speed. The magic wand in her hand shone brightly, and every wave brought a mysterious power.

After a fierce fight, the python gradually showed signs of fatigue. Its attacks were no longer as fierce and its movements became slower.

At this moment, the mysterious man seized the opportunity, leaped up, and accurately stabbed the dagger into the python's left eye. Black blood gushed out of the python's eye, and it screamed in pain, the sound echoing in the valley, making people shudder.

The python twisted its body frantically, trying to throw the mysterious man off.

Zhang Hao took the opportunity to leap up and thrust his sword into the python's right eye. The sword pierced the python's eye socket, causing it to tremble violently before collapsing to the ground.

The python, having lost its eyes, became even more ferocious, but also lost its sense of direction. It attacked its surroundings recklessly, knocking down trees.

Everyone worked together to launch a final attack on the python, with all kinds of magical lights, spell powers, and sword attacks falling on the python.

Finally, the python fell to the ground, motionless, its huge body crushing the grass and raising a cloud of dust.

Everyone collapsed to the ground, breathing heavily, their clothes soaked with sweat, their faces filled with exhaustion and relief at having survived.

"The bottom of this valley is truly fraught with danger," Ling Yu said. His voice was weak and hoarse. He lay on the ground, gazing at the sky, a look of helplessness in his eyes.

"But we can't give up. We have to find a way out." Zhang Hao gritted his teeth and stood up. His body was shaky, but his eyes remained firm.

They continued on, taking great care as they went, the road beneath their feet being bumpy and overgrown with weeds.

Suddenly, a huge cave appeared in front of them, and from within came bursts of deep roars. The sound seemed to come from an ancient giant beast, full of majesty and terror.

"What is this?" the woman said in horror, her voice trembling and her steps stopping involuntarily.

"Whatever it is, we have to go check it out," Zhang Hao said, leading the way toward the cave. His steps were firm, and although he was filled with anxiety, he knew retreat was not an option.

Everyone followed him, feeling uneasy. The cave entrance was filled with a gloomy atmosphere that made people shudder.

Walking into the cave, it was dark and damp, with strange lights flickering on the walls.

"Everyone be careful," the old man warned.

They slowly went deeper into the cave, and the roaring became clearer and clearer.

Suddenly, a huge monster rushed out from the darkness...
