"The speed is indeed that fast!"

Zhang Lingyu continued to move through the forest, and as he watched the dark figure approaching from behind, his heart sank.

Even if he throws the Jade Armor Grass away now, the Black Spirit Python won't let him go easily.

After all, the flesh and blood of cultivators are a great tonic for demonic beasts, how can mere spiritual herbs compare?

"The Black Spirit Python's scales are incredibly tough; my magic sword alone can't break through its defenses. If I were to strike, I'd only be putting myself in grave danger!"

"The Golden Sword Talisman is powerful, but you have to time it right! Fortunately, I know a fire spell that can slightly disrupt it."

In a short time, he had already come up with some ways to deal with the situation, thanks to the Zhang family's substantial wealth.

As cultivators of a sect, the Zhang family had a continuous line of Foundation Establishment cultivators for generations. After hundreds of years and the efforts of dozens of generations, they compiled a book called "The Book of Monsters and Strange Things".

It records the characteristics, habits, and attack methods of various demonic beasts, and the types alone include almost all the first and second-order demonic beasts in the entire cultivation world.

It even records several Golden Core demon kings!

Zhang Lingyu only glanced at the section on first-tier demonic beasts, yet he was able to determine the type of demonic snake based on some of the characteristics he had just observed.

The Book of Monsters and Strange Things records that the Black Spirit Python's most prized weapon is its venomous fangs. If a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator is hit by them and does not receive timely treatment, he will die from festering wounds within two hours.

Fortunately, this is a last resort. Usually, one would use their speed advantage to get close to the opponent, wrap their body tightly around them, making them unable to move, and then swallow them whole.

Its only weakness is that it is afraid of fire.

As Zhang Lingyu continued to flee, he watched the black python relentlessly pursuing him. He made hand seals in his sleeves, and after a few breaths, he suddenly swallowed a rain of fire!

First-tier spell – Fire Rain!

He didn't expect the spells to cause much damage; he only hoped that the fire rain would slow down the opponent and throw them into disarray.

as predicted.

As the fire rain shot towards it, the black python's vertical pupils narrowed slightly. Its body, which had been moving at high speed, suddenly stopped and began to dodge in the air to avoid being burned.

Seeing that the fire rain was having some effect, Zhang Lingyu didn't dare to delay and quickly increased his speed.

"Hiss..."

Distracted, the black python saw its prey about to escape and immediately adjusted its posture to give chase.

"Bang!"

Zhang Lingyu, who was always watching her back, immediately noticed that the other party had increased their speed. Just as she was about to continue using the Fire Rain Technique to interfere, a black shadow flashed in front of her, and the next second her arm felt like it had been hit by a stick, and she suddenly felt a sharp pain.

The immense pain contorted his once delicate features, and his body swayed precariously in mid-air.

Without a doubt, the Black Python has gotten close!

Zhang Lingyu reacted extremely quickly, enduring the pain as she swiftly fled into the bamboo forest.

If you hesitate for even a second, you will be tightly bound by the Black Python, and you will be unable to use any of your skills.

After falling into the forest, he quickly looked at his arm and thankfully there was no serious injury.

The Zhang family robe draped over his body provided excellent protection; without it, his arm would likely have been broken.

"Damn beast!"

Zhang Lingyu cursed under his breath, then looked up at the top of the bamboo forest. The black python, having failed in its attack, was using its agile body to weave through the forest, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

A strong sense of crisis welled up in my heart, and without thinking too much, I began to move my body constantly.

However, being in a state of high alert for an extended period, coupled with physical exertion, has begun to slow down.

The black python must have noticed this, which is why it pursued the enemy at a leisurely pace, hoping to have a good meal without getting hurt.

...

Time ticked by, and Zhang Lingyu grew increasingly anxious. Although they were almost out of the Purple Bamboo Forest, her condition was far from ideal, and the beast behind her was still relentlessly pursuing her, hoping to deliver a final blow the moment she was out.

Just as he was about to use the Golden Sword Talisman, looking at the bamboo forest that blocked out the sky, he seemed to understand something.

The next second, a rain of fire erupted from his mouth, igniting the surrounding bamboo leaves!

The fire spread quickly, forming a circle in the blink of an eye that enveloped the man and the beast.

"There were fire sources all around, how could I have forgotten that? Although setting fire to the mountain is very wrong."

Seeing the black python in complete disarray before him, Zhang Lingyu pulled out a golden sword talisman from his sleeve, mustered his magical power, and roared, "Beast, prepare to die!"

"Hiss!"

The beast's intuition was incredibly sharp; upon seeing the talisman, its body couldn't help but tremble.

That thing can really kill you!

Although they were afraid of fire, their lives were the most important thing at the moment, so they desperately tried to cross the sea of ​​fire and escape.

Zhang Lingyu went to such great lengths and suffered considerable injuries; how could he let it leave?

Furthermore, these talismans are not easy to deal with.

The golden sword talisman in his hand turned into ashes under the influence of magic. Then, a golden ball of light floated in mid-air, transformed into a small sword, and shot fiercely towards the black spirit python.

Two breaths later, screams echoed through the bamboo forest.

Upon hearing the screams, Zhang Lingyu dared not make any rash moves. Instead, she sat down heavily on the ground, panting heavily.

Looking at the flames still burning around him, he slowly began to ponder, "Why haven't they arrived yet?"

Besides interfering with the Black Spirit Python, this sea of ​​fire will also alert the other Zhang family cultivators in the town, who will surely come to check the situation.

Of course, there was an element of gambling involved, since he himself wasn't sure if he could hold out until then.

After waiting for a while, shouts finally came from outside the forest. Then, a streak of light pierced through the sea of ​​fire and arrived directly in front of Zhang Lingyu, asking, "Nineteenth Brother, are you alright? What happened?!"

The person who arrived was Zhang Ling'an.

He was sitting in the town when he saw black smoke rising from the purple bamboo forest outside the town, along with the sound of bamboo cracking as it burned.

Remembering that Zhang Lingyu was cultivating in the forest, he wondered what had happened to his cousin and rushed over in a hurry!

Only when they saw the boy slumped on the ground, seemingly exhausted but not seriously injured, did they breathe a sigh of relief.

Faced with his cousin's barrage of words, Zhang Lingyu gave a wry smile: "During my cultivation, a black spirit python suddenly appeared. I fought with it, and in desperation, I ignited the sea of ​​fire so that you, Sixth Brother, would notice what was happening here!"

"Black Python!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ling'an's expression changed drastically. He himself was not even sure he could defeat this monster on his own, let alone lurking so close to the town. If it wanted to enter the city and eat people, it would be an easy task.

Right now, all he could do was anxiously ask, "Nineteenth Brother, where's the demon beast? Did it escape?!"

With the other person's help, Zhang Lingyu slowly got up and pointed to the outer edge of the sea of ​​fire, saying, "I pierced its head with the Golden Sword Talisman, so it should be dead."

"Dead!?"

The man seemed somewhat incredulous. After helping Zhang Lingyu sit down, he cautiously walked out of the fire.
