I can bless thousands of magical powers.

scoff!

The blade of the Overlord Halberd once again sliced ​​across the giant python's body, leaving a deep wound.

The giant monster suddenly twisted its body, as if Zhang Yuan's attack had completely enraged it.

Or to be more precise, it had grown impatient to continue fighting with Zhang Yuanyou.

As the dominant force in the water, the Nutao River is normally the home ground of the giant python, and it should have the upper hand under normal circumstances.

However, Zhang Yuan's swimming skills were terrifying; he could still fight it off in the water.

It is not restricted by water bodies at all.

Moreover, many of the giant python's water control and manipulation techniques were ineffective against Zhang Yuan.

It has never encountered such a formidable opponent!
Conversely, Zhang Yuan's attacks hit it again and again.

Although it couldn't truly break through the defenses, it still greatly annoyed the giant python.

In fact, under normal circumstances, its underwater mobility is even stronger.

Unfortunately, having consumed too many cattle and horses earlier, the food in its stomach was compressed and bloated, making it impossible to digest quickly enough, which affected its combat ability.

Realizing the problem, the giant python decided to end it quickly!

It suddenly opened its blood-red maw and spewed out a sinister aura from its throat.

The next moment, the surrounding water seemed to be soaked in black ink, instantly turning dark and gloomy, and swept towards Zhang Yuan's location at an extremely fast speed.

Not only that, the water temperature dropped rapidly wherever the Yin energy reached, and it even froze.

Zhang Yuan immediately felt invisible, sinister forces surging towards him, attempting to break through his protective armor and penetrate his internal organs.

Although the armor formed by the Hunyuan True Qi could suppress Yin Qi and evil Qi, this great monster was of a very high rank, and the power it suddenly unleashed was extremely terrifying, giving Zhang Yuan an instinctive sense of crisis.

Without the slightest hesitation, he fully activated the Primordial True Qi, as if he had personally lit a powder keg, causing it to explode within his body.

Zhang Yuan's body instantly swelled up, his face turned bright red, and the temperature of his skin surface rose sharply.

His protective aura transformed from formless to tangible, as if he were wearing a set of pale golden armor, radiating a faint glow and blocking out all the sweeping Yin energy.

"break!"

Zhang Yuan exhaled in the water, his Overlord Halberd thrusting straight forward.

His attack was extremely fast, and he suddenly increased the power of the black giant ant to its maximum of thirty-five times.

puff!
The halberd struck the giant python squarely in the head.

This giant monster was trying to swallow Zhang Yuan whole, taking advantage of the cover of the Yin Sha dark current.

Before it could even open its gaping maw, it was pierced between its eyes by this high-level Xuan weapon.

However, the scales in this part of the python are the thinnest!

The incomparably sharp halberd tip pierced through the thin scales without any hesitation, and then broke through the skull.

It penetrated to a depth of three or four inches.

The true energy concentrated within the halberd suddenly erupted.

Before Zhang Yuan could exert any more force, the giant python, in pain, suddenly shook its head and broke free from the Overlord Halberd. Its tail then lashed out at Zhang Yuan from an unbelievable angle.

Zhang Yuan had just gripped the Overlord Halberd when he was suddenly struck by a fierce counterattack from the giant monster.

By the time he sensed the danger, it was too late to escape.

Therefore, he could only hold the halberd with both hands in front of him.

boom!
With a muffled boom, Zhang Yuan was sent flying backward, halberd and all. Although he had withstood the giant python's counterattack, the latter's power was simply too terrifying, and the backlash caused him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

call!
The python's tail followed closely like a leech, lashing out at Zhang Yuan once more.

This is one of the great monster's signature skills: once its tail strike hits its opponent, it will continue to attack relentlessly until the target is turned into a pulp.

Moreover, a single hit results in a second hit that is even faster and more accurate!

boom!
Zhang Yuan barely managed to block it, and then accelerated his retreat.

But he vomited several more mouthfuls of blood, which greatly aggravated his internal injuries!
The tide of battle between the two sides was turned in an instant.

Having gained the upper hand, the giant python readjusted its posture, its pair of scarlet eyes fixed on Zhang Yuan's figure, revealing endless greed and cruelty.

For this great monster, the benefits of devouring a human powerhouse like Zhang Yuan were far greater than those of hundreds or thousands of cattle and horses.

To preserve the "deliciousness" of the food, it twitched its tail three times in succession before ceasing its attack.

Because Zhang Yuan also seemed to have lost the ability to continue fighting, and his condition was extremely bad.

After suffering repeated blows, he could barely hold onto his weapon.

His face was deathly pale!

The next moment, the giant python, from a distance of dozens of steps, opened its blood-red maw at Zhang Yuan, who was suspended in the water.

This time it opened its mouth to its limit—enough to swallow the size of a strong ox.

Then the throat and esophagus contracted violently, suddenly generating an extremely powerful suction force.

Suddenly, an undercurrent formed in the water around Zhang Yuan, enveloping him and surging him toward the giant python's throat.

But at that moment, Zhang Yuan, who seemed to have given up and was about to die, suddenly had a cold killing intent flash in his eyes.

He also opened his mouth and spat out a streak of crimson-gold flame from his throat.

God-Slaying Flying Knife!

At the most critical moment, Zhang Yuan once again unleashed his strongest trump card.

In fact, his state of being severely injured and exhausted just now was mostly a pretense, designed to lull his opponent into a false sense of security.

Then deliver the decisive blow!
The giant python, believing victory was assured and its meal was within its grasp, instinctively sensed a deadly threat.

It instinctively tried to close its mouth, but the God-Slaying Blade instantly pierced its gaping maw, penetrating its internal cavity without any hesitation, and then emerged from the back of its head.

puff!

The God-Slaying Blade, now free from the giant python, traced a near-perfect arc in the water before piercing through the giant monster's forehead, where the Overlord's Halberd had previously pierced it.

A second injury has been inflicted!
The giant python's massive body shuddered suddenly, and its two enormous eyes became dull.

Although its head had been turned into mush by the power of the God-Slaying Blade, its extremely strong vitality prevented it from dying immediately, and it even retained a trace of spiritual consciousness.

The next moment, two silver-gray beams of light shot out from the giant python's eyes, shooting straight at Zhang Yuan!

The speed was unbelievable.

However, Zhang Yuan did not repeat the mistake it had made earlier; even with victory in sight, he remained highly vigilant.

Without thinking, he leaned back, narrowly avoiding the python's final counterattack.

The fact that it couldn't take Zhang Yuan down with it left the giant monster with a look of disappointment and despair in its eyes.

Its life force immediately plummeted to the bottom, and it remained completely still. (End of Chapter)
