Chapter 104: Someone Got There First
“Let’s fight it to the death! If we don’t bring back anything useful, Sect Leader won’t spare us!” Liu Ruoyan took a deep breath, her beautiful eyes filled with determination and ruthlessness.
As soon as these words were spoken, the bodies of the other Qingyun Alliance disciples clearly froze, their faces showing determination.
Their sect had paid a huge price to get sixteen trial spots in the Ancient Desolate Secret Realm. If they returned empty-handed this time, death would surely await them.
Since it’s death either way, it’s better to fight and gamble. Maybe a bicycle can turn into a motorcycle.
“Kill!”
In an instant, the Qingyun Alliance disciples who were still hesitating all took out their Magical Artifacts and frantically surrounded and attacked the Heaven-Swallowing Python.
Seeing this, Liu Ruoyan’s pretty face relaxed slightly, and she let out a soft breath, her gaze fixed on the ferocious Heaven-Swallowing Python in front of her. “Beast, today I will take your dog life!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Ruoyan also joined the crowd in besieging the Heaven-Swallowing Python!
In an instant, shouts of killing filled the sky, and a battle between humans and beasts was about to break out.
Seeing this scene, a sneer appeared on Su Chen’s lips, and he thought to himself, “Kill, fight, this old man, the oriole, is waiting behind.”
He continued to quietly conceal his aura and hid in the bushes in the distance.
The Heaven-Swallowing Python’s body was as massive as a mountain, and ordinary attack methods couldn’t break its defense at all. Only by relying on Magical Artifacts could they injure it.
“Roar~”
At this moment, the Heaven-Swallowing Python was completely enraged by the siege of Liu Ruoyan and the others. It let out angry roars and charged recklessly, wanting to crush these daring ants.
However, Liu Ruoyan and the others firmly surrounded it from all directions, throwing all kinds of Magical Artifacts and hidden weapons, frantically attacking its remaining left eye and its vital point seven inches behind its head.
The Heaven-Swallowing Python wasn’t stupid either. Knowing the intentions of the Qingyun Alliance disciples, it tightly protected the two weak points on its body and waited for an opportunity to launch a fatal attack.
Pfft!
Suddenly, the Heaven-Swallowing Python opened its huge mouth and swallowed a Qingyun Alliance disciple in one gulp.
However, the remaining Qingyun Alliance disciples didn’t show any fear because of this. Instead, it ignited the fighting spirit deep in their hearts.
“I’ll kill you!”
Seeing this, a Qingyun Alliance disciple at the First Level of the Minor Saint Realm, with scarlet eyes, seized the opportunity to fly to the top of the Heaven-Swallowing Python’s head and fiercely stabbed its head with his extremely sharp long sword.
Immediately, the flesh on the Heaven-Swallowing Python’s head was pierced, and blood flowed profusely.
“Roar!”
The Heaven-Swallowing Python didn’t back down either. It took the opportunity to roll over, its head smashing towards the ground.
The Qingyun Alliance disciple at the First Level of the Minor Saint Realm was startled and quickly dodged, but he was still half a step too slow. His lower body was directly crushed into a pile of flesh.
“Ah~”
After letting out a heart-wrenching scream, he instantly fainted.
“Senior Brother Wang Yuan!”
The other Qingyun Alliance disciples around were all stunned, their eyes instantly moistening.
“Avenge Senior Brother Wang Yuan!”
A mournful voice came, and then another Qingyun Alliance disciple at the First Level of the Minor Saint Realm rushed towards the Heaven-Swallowing Python’s vital point seven inches behind its head.
However, the Heaven-Swallowing Python was quite intelligent. It sensed the danger, twisted its body, and avoided the attack. Then, its tail swept horizontally, hitting two Qingyun Alliance disciples at once.
Crack!
Along with the crisp sound of bones breaking, the chests of these two disciples collapsed, their internal organs were all shattered, and they died instantly.
Seeing this scene, all the Qingyun Alliance disciples were stunned.
This Heaven-Swallowing Python was too ferocious.
Liu Ruoyan’s pretty face was gloomy, and her eyes became even colder.
✿✿✿
She could see that although the Heaven-Swallowing Python had the upper hand now, it was also at the end of its rope. As long as their side persisted, the Heaven-Swallowing Python would eventually be defeated.
“Everyone, spread out and attack freely. We’ll slowly bleed it dry and exhaust it to death!” Liu Ruoyan gritted her teeth and shouted.
Hearing this, the other Qingyun Alliance disciples all nodded in agreement and quickly used their speed.
Not long after, the Heaven-Swallowing Python was covered in blood, and bright red blood continuously oozed from its wounds, staining the surrounding land red, as if a rain of blood had fallen.
“Roar~”
The Heaven-Swallowing Python hissed violently, its snake tongue flicking in and out. Its remaining left eye was filled with intense hatred and violence. It continuously waved its huge snake tail, wanting to slap these annoying guys to death.
Bang, bang, bang.
For a time, the entire earth trembled, rumbling loudly, and sand and stones flew everywhere.
However, for the Qingyun Alliance, this was just a dying struggle.
Gradually, the Heaven-Swallowing Python lost too much blood, its body began to weaken, its movements slowed down, and even its aura became much weaker.
Seeing this, Liu Ruoyan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and she immediately shouted, “Everyone, pay attention, don’t let it catch its breath, let’s finish it off in one go.”
After speaking, she took the lead and rushed towards the Heaven-Swallowing Python.
Hearing this, the other Qingyun Alliance disciples immediately took action. They cooperated with Liu Ruoyan, approached the Heaven-Swallowing Python, and continuously cast spells, frantically attacking its vital points.
However, at this moment, the Heaven-Swallowing Python’s entire body began to rapidly expand.
Seeing this, Liu Ruoyan’s expression changed drastically, and she immediately shouted, “Retreat, retreat quickly, this beast is going to self-detonate!”
Hearing this, the Qingyun Alliance disciples’ expressions changed, and they immediately turned to leave, but it was still too late.
Boom~
The Heaven-Swallowing Python’s muscles were knotted, like steel plates, its surface covered with scales, filled with explosive power. Then, it suddenly ejected a terrifying wave of air, sweeping in all directions, knocking down and destroying the surrounding trees and weeds.
In an instant, except for Liu Ruoyan and Bai Youchang who were seriously injured, the other Qingyun Alliance disciples were killed on the spot.
“Cough, cough, cough”
After finally stabilizing herself, Liu Ruoyan coughed violently, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
When the Heaven-Swallowing Python self-detonated just now, she bore the brunt of the attack. Logically, she should have died. Fortunately, Bai Youchang pulled her away. Otherwise, she would probably be dead by now.
“D*mn it!”
Liu Ruoyan cursed in a low voice, her face extremely gloomy.
She never expected that this Heaven-Swallowing Python would suddenly self-detonate. It was completely beyond her expectations and caused a change in this originally sure-win situation, causing heavy losses to their side.
“Junior Sister Ruoyan, what should we do now?” Bai Youchang asked with a pale face.
At this time, both of them were seriously injured and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. It would be difficult for them to participate in battle anymore. If they encountered other trial-takers at this time, they would probably die.
“Collect the Spirit Source Pearl from that giant eagle, and we’ll withdraw.” Liu Ruoyan pondered for a moment and said.
“Okay.”
Hearing this, Bai Youchang nodded in agreement.
It was a pity that the Heaven-Swallowing Python chose to self-detonate at this time. Otherwise, they would have gotten another high-level Spirit Source Pearl.
However, just as Bai Youchang got up and came to the giant eagle’s corpse, he was astonished to find a man in black reaching into the giant eagle’s forehead and fumbling around.
“D*mn it!”
Seeing this, Bai Youchang was furious and shouted sharply, “Who are you? That’s our spoils of war!”
