Chapter 249: The Battle Between Man and Python

easts among them whose aura was not much weaker than the leopard’s. If he persisted here, he would likely be torn apart by the wolves. Therefore, Lu Xiaotian chose to flee with the leopard without hes...Regarding the green shade snake fire emitted by the Black Wind Demon Python, Lu Xia Tian didn't dare to be careless at all. If it touched him, he was worried that something bad might happen. After all, although cultivators could defend against attacks from ordinary artifacts to a certain extent, this kind of green shade snake fire was different from common artifacts. It wasn't something that could simply break through the defense of his skin and enter his body. Even his more powerful Fire Jiao scales might not be able to withstand it.

However, Lu Xia Tian wasn't completely helpless. He formed hand seals and continuously channeled his energy into the Cracking Earth Blade. Golden blade qi erupted with a deafening roar. The weapon resonated with Lu Xia Tian's intent to kill. The blade trembled, emitting a soft humming sound. Golden blade qi coalesced into layers of illusory shadows, clashing fiercely with the emerald serpent fire.

The emerald snake fire appeared for only a fleeting moment. This spiritual herb, called Snake Gall Grass, seemed to sense the great tonic it offered. Its jade-green leaves trembled, as if imbued with a newfound vitality. But not all flora and fauna reacted like the Snake Gall Grass. Other ordinary trees, along with some lower-ranked spirits, withered and turned yellow at a visible rate. With the green snake fire as its center, a chilling wave of death seemed to form, constantly radiating outwards.

But the slash of the sword was a blade that shattered everything, an indomitable sharpness like gold. There was no poison like the green snake's fire, but its icy aura brought forth an invisible whirlwind in the once tranquil jungle. It swept fallen, yellow leaves from the trees, whirling them chaotically around.

Boom boom boom....

The Cleaving Earth Blade and the Green Shade Serpent Fire collided without any flourish. The Black Wind Demon Python dared not let the Cleaving Earth Blade come near its body easily. Lu Xia Tian was very wary of the Green Shade Serpent Fire, as this head-on attack consumed a great deal of spiritual power. This Black Wind Demon Python, which was fighting Lu Xia Tian with magic, had already reached the peak of the Sixth Layer of Acceptance, equivalent to the Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment. In terms of spiritual power, it was far more robust than Lu Xia Tian. The fact that it could cultivate the Green Shade Serpent Fire further proved the demon python's unique and formidable nature.

Due to his lower cultivation level, Lu Xia Tian's magical power was not as profound as the Black Wind Demon Python's. As time went on, beads of sweat began to form on his forehead. A sinister and cunning glint flashed in the Black Wind Demon Python's eyes. It seemed to sense Lu Xia Tian's waning strength.

Even Xue Ling, who was watching from afar, felt a chill down his spine. Even the burly man with no hair could see the fearsome battle unfolding before him. Even the wizened old man, seeing this astonishing scene, felt a tremor of apprehension in his heart. As a cultivator at the late stage of foundation building, he was awestruck by both Lu Xiaoteng and the Black Wind Demon Python.

“Xue Dao-friend, looking at this situation, if nothing unexpected happens, Lu Dao-friend probably won’t be able to hold on for long either. Do you have any means Otherwise, we should prepare to retreat sooner. Once the Black Wind Demon Python is angered, it's no joke.” The thin elder, though not participating in the fight, couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.

"Let's just see what happens. Lu Daoyou got caught up in this because of me, no matter what, I won't stand idly by." Xue Ling had a resolute expression on his face. He saw that the thin old man had already shown some hesitation in his tone. Although he wasn't directly involved, the fact that the thin old man chose to warn them instead of leaving showed that things were more complicated than they seemed. Before the twin brothers and their associates, they had grown far too powerful.

"Well then, since we're here together, let's wait a while longer. I might not be able to help with big matters, but my nephew and I will do our best for smaller ones." The gaunt old man hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and making the decision.

The Qi of the Splitting Earth Saber surged wildly, and the mana in Lu Xiaottian's Dantian retreated like a tide. He could sense the cunning glint in Hei Feng Yao Mang's eyes, immediately letting out a cold snort as he took out a Huitian Dan and swallowed it.

In a blink of an eye, the Liche Blade, whose momentum had slightly waned, trembled once more, cleaving the encroaching Yin Sha Serpent Fire apart.

"What kind of elixir is this that can recover so much mana in such a short time!" The bald strong man's eyes lit up, "If we could also have this kind of elixir, our survival ability would be more than doubled."

"To recover all consumed mana in such a short time, and have no effect on the duel, it must be a Huitian Dan. This Lu Daoist is truly extraordinary! He must come from a powerful background. Although Xuan Ye City isn't small, renowned foundation-building cultivators are well-known, yet there's no mention of this Lu Daoist at all. It's quite a mystery. Perhaps he's a disciple from another faraway immortal sect." Even though the wizened old man was a late stage foundation-builder, seeing Lu Xiaottian consume the Huitian Dan, he couldn't help but feel a pang of envy in his heart.

The Black Wind Demon Python continued to use the Green Shade Snake Fire, consuming a considerable amount of its power. These Green Shade Snake Fires weren't conjured by the wind, but rather were the result of its long years of cultivation, absorbing moonlight and consuming the bones of countless demonic beasts. It used its internal poison and corpse energy to refine them, making them hard-earned treasures. In this battle against Lu Xia Tian, it had expended a great deal of energy yet failed to defeat him. The Black Wind Demon Python couldn't help but feel a growing sense of impatience.

It seemed that the Yin Sha Snake Fire alone wasn't enough to kill the seemingly insignificant human before him. The Black Wind Demon Python lost its original patience, let out a monstrous hiss, and its thick tail swayed violently, launching a strike towards Lu Xiaitian through the Green Shadow Snake Fire. The snake tail flashed, crossing hundreds of meters in an instant, while the Black Wind Demon Python's main body remained stationary.

“Such a formidable demon beast! To be able to break through the spatial restrictions and instantly attack enemies hundreds of meters away!” Even the wizened old man, despite his vast experience, couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment at the incredible scene before him. What he was witnessing truly defied his understanding. Even a Golden Core cultivator would likely find it difficult to perform such a technique. Could there be something peculiar about this Black Wind Serpent Python

It wasn't just the gaunt old man who was shocked. Lu Xiaoxiao, who was opposed to the Black Wind Demon Python, was even more horrified. With the size of the Black Wind Demon Python, stretching for dozens of meters, it was impossible for its flesh body to attack him so easily. But the speed of the python's tail in front of him was unbelievable, crossing hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye. There wasn't any time for a reaction at all. Almost without any defense from Lu Xiaoxiao, the python's tail whipped over and struck his face.

“Lu Dao-friend!” Xue Ling’s face turned pale. This black wind python was as thick as a water barrel and dozens of meters long. For human cultivators, it was undoubtedly a huge monster. Besides, the black wind python was gathering its strength with a menacing hiss in this attack. It probably had at least tens of thousands of jin of force. Even a cultivator at the peak of foundation building would have to use their full effort to receive this strike even with a magic weapon. But Lu Xiaottian showed no reaction time, and the attack was already in front of him. He took it head-on with his flesh and blood. Xue Ling didn't even dare to think about the result.
