These bloody holes overlapped each other, eventually bursting into a huge bloody hole. The flesh rolled over and exploded into a bloody pulp, and even the internal organs inside were smashed into a bloody pulp and burst out by the "steel fist".

While the giant python was dodging Li Yu's terrifying "Heavenly Wolf Slash" attack, it launched a full-force attack from the giant mushroom, sending Li Yu flying. Little did it know that Bai Yan would seize the opportunity to strike.

Even if it saw it, it wouldn't have time to dodge, and in an instant, a huge bloody hole was blasted out of its belly.

The intense pain caused it to roar from its gaping, foul-smelling mouth, and its body suddenly flipped over, its head, which had been raised, crashing heavily downwards.

With a single, gaping maw, it swallowed Bai Yan, body and all, half of her whole.

Bai Yan unleashed her full power with "Iron Fist," but the giant python reacted so quickly that she had no time to dodge.

She felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, a stench that filled her nostrils, and then a sharp pain shot through her upper body. Her head, face, and upper body had been swallowed whole by the giant death python.

Caught off guard, she was terrified. Instinctively, she activated "Iron Skin" to protect her body and unleashed "Iron Fists" with both hands once more, furiously punching into the dark and foul-smelling snake's mouth.

Zhao Wu and Fang Ziming, who had collided, got up one after the other. The collision had seriously injured them, and their mouths were covered in blood, but they still quickly got up and wanted to attack.

Suddenly, a cold wind arose in front of them, and the enormous death mushroom reappeared, crashing down on them.

Fang Zimo let out a fierce roar and swung his hands out in quick succession. Instantly, countless rays of light intertwined in front of them, forming a faint net of light.

The giant mushroom of death slammed into the light net from mid-air. Fang Ziming couldn't withstand the force and spat out another mouthful of blood, his body flying backward.

Using the light net as a shield, Zhao Wu circled to the other side, then suddenly swung his rock spear, and with a hiss, a beam of light shot out, striking the giant mushroom of death with a thud.

A huge, transparent hole appeared on the giant mushroom of death.

The giant python shuddered violently, its body tumbling, its enormous head clamped down on Bai Yan, and with a sweeping motion, it slammed heavily into Zhao Wu.

Zhao Wu let out a roar and was sent flying through the air, but as he was thrown, the rock spear he was holding in his right hand flew out of his hand.

With a soft thud, it precisely pierced one of the giant python's eyes.

The rock spear pierced through the eye, and the excruciating pain caused the giant python to instinctively open its mouth, freeing Bai Yan from its grip.

Although she was covered in blood and had two huge holes in her abdomen where she had been bitten by snake fangs, she still charged forward recklessly, unleashing her steel-like fists once again, targeting the abdomen where she had previously punched the bloody holes.

Almost everyone was fighting desperately, while the other four were simultaneously killing the remaining giant pythons and then charging towards the last dead python.

Everyone rushed upwards like they were risking their lives.

Suddenly, a figure moved faster than them, sweeping past them like a whirlwind.

This person was Li Yu.

He was swatted away by the giant mushroom of death and crashed into it. His heart pounded even harder, and in his right eye, countless points of light began to ripple, transforming into an inexhaustible source of light that surged wildly toward his heart.

As time went on, the Yin energy became increasingly frenzied, consuming countless fungal spores and transforming them into surging energy that flowed into Li Yu's entire body.

What's even more astonishing is that two seconds had already passed, but the "hyper-capture" hadn't disappeared; he was still in the "hyper-capture" state.

A terrifying power surged from his entire body. With a single flip, his body seemed to be lifted by a tremendous force, transforming into a streak of rainbow light that shot out, surpassing everyone else's speed.

With a flick of his right hand, the Heavenly Wolf Blade flew out of his hand, transforming into a streak of dark blue light that instantly pierced through the towering giant mushroom of death.

The Death Python was covered in wounds, and the repeated injuries caused its speed and reaction ability to decline. Just as it was about to unleash the Death Giant Mushroom again to shove Bai Yan and Zhao Wu away, a flash of dark blue light suddenly appeared in the air.

The next instant, it felt a tearing pain coming from the giant mushroom of death.

The Sirius Blade shot through the air, slicing the giant mushroom of death in two. Li Yu's right hand and the tail of the Sirius Blade were connected by a half-meter-long mycelium, extending the Sirius Blade to its limit.

In the next instant, he landed in front of the Death Serpent, the mycelium contracted, and the hilt of the Sirius Blade returned to his right palm.

With his left hand gripping tightly, he held the hilt of the sword with both hands, and a dark blue light rose from the Heavenly Wolf Sword, covering the entire sword.

"Heavenly Wolf Slash" is activated, and a terrifying blade of light bursts forth, extending downwards along the cut-open giant mushroom of death, cutting into the body of the giant python of death.

In an instant, blood gushed out, accompanied by the deathly python's mournful hiss. It twisted its body as if in a frenzy, and with its last bit of strength, its enormous head slammed sideways into the ground.

The moment Li Yu unleashed the Heavenly Wolf Slash, he seemed to anticipate the attack of the Death Python. He pushed off the ground with both feet, unleashing the Yin power within his body, and instantly soared into the sky.

With a loud "bang," the giant python slammed its head sideways onto the ground, missing Li Yu who was soaring into the sky, but instead hitting Bai Yan, who had just delivered the "Iron Fist."

Although Bai Yan was protected by "steel skin", she could not withstand the impact. With a scream, she was sent flying backward, her internal organs seemed to turn upside down, and blood gushed from her mouth.

Li Yu leaped into the air, avoiding the massive head of the Death Serpent crashing to the ground. While still in mid-air, he used his Heavenly Wolf Blade to brace himself against the ground.

He swung it again with a vengeance, the Sirius Blade tracing a perfect arc in the air before falling and striking the head of the Death Serpent.

The previous Heavenly Wolf Slash had already cleaved the Death Giant Mushroom at the tail of the Death Giant Python, along with most of its body, in two. The Death Giant Python's head had just slammed into the ground, and it was already at its last gasp.

Just after knocking Bai Yan away, Li Yu swung his Heavenly Wolf Blade through the air and struck the head of the Death Python. The dark blue blade light flashed and instantly sliced ​​through, splitting the massive head in two.

Unlike ordinary demonic flower pythons, the vital part of this death python is deep inside its skull; it cannot be truly killed unless its skull is cleaved open.

With his feet on the ground, Li Yu was panting heavily, his heart still pounding.

The "Superhuman Capture" had disappeared, and the Yin energy that had filled his body was rapidly receding. He felt a strong dizziness and weakness.

The side effects of activating the Shadow Dog are beginning to appear.

Li Yu braced himself against the ground with his right hand holding the Sirius Blade, barely managing to steady himself. He quickly took out two Glowing Mushrooms and stuffed them into his mouth.

The fluorescent mushroom transformed into a stream of heat, most of which flowed into the heart, while the remaining portion spread throughout the body. The body, which had been feeling weak and almost exhausted, slowly began to regain a new strength.

Having learned from his previous experience using Yin, Li Yu gradually discovered that eating these edible fungi could provide some relief after he was nearly exhausted from using Yin.

Seeing the giant python lying motionless on the ground, the crowd, who had been swaying and staggering around them, finally came to their senses and looked at Li Yu with shock and awe.

Although the death python was killed with the combined efforts of everyone, Li Yu was the one who performed the most impressively, as he delivered the most fatal blow and killed the python.

Li Yu saw that a strengthening crystal core, a symbiotic fungus, and a blood-patterned mushroom had appeared on the corpse of the giant python.

He picked it up, put it in his pouch, then put away the Sirius Blade and slowly sat down.

Most of the people were seriously injured and lay on the ground, their faces showing shock and lingering fear.

The horse-faced man propped himself up and slowly sat up from the ground. He wiped the blood from his mouth and looked at the dead giant python with a dazed expression. He hadn't expected that they would actually work together to kill a giant python.

This is a C-rank elite beast, a legendary monster comparable to a peak Spore Stage expert.

Bai Yan and Zhao Wu slowly sat up from the ground. Looking at the corpse of the giant python, they breathed a sigh of relief. They were both seriously injured, but fortunately, their lives were not in danger.

Fang Zimo, who was not seriously injured, stood up and said, "Everyone, let's leave here first. It's too dangerous to stay here any longer. I'm afraid we'll attract other fungal beasts."

Then he directed the other two, who were not seriously injured, to pick up some spoils from the ground, and then, with the seriously injured Zhao Wu, Bai Yan, and the horse-faced man in tow, they quickly left the area and headed towards a residential building not far away.

After eating two Glowing Mushrooms, Li Yu felt much better. In addition, since he had only maintained "Superhuman Capture" and the power of the Yin Dog for a short time, the side effects on his body were not too strong.

At this moment, you can rely on your own willpower and, together with the others, quickly enter the residential building.

Once inside the room, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief and collapsed.

Among the group, Zhao Wu, Bai Yan, and the horse-faced man were the most seriously injured and would not be able to fully recover without half a day of rest.

Li Yu lowered his eyes slightly. The two Glowing Star Mushrooms he had just eaten were now taking effect. His heart was continuously absorbing the nutrients from the two Glowing Star Mushrooms, converting them into energy, and then nourishing his entire body.

"Li Yu, thank you so much this time!"

Zhao Wu took a breath, his face a little pale, then raised his thumb and said, "I, Zhao Wu, have never submitted to anyone. I consider myself one of the best among the elite, and I don't submit to anyone, but today I submit to you."

Although they all contributed, everyone knew in their hearts that the killing of the giant death python was mainly due to Li Yu.

Li Yu shook his head and said, "It depends on everyone's efforts. This kind of C-level elite beast cannot be killed by any one person alone."

Fang Ziming nodded and said, "That's true. After all, there's a level difference. No matter how powerful we are, we're still only top-tier. These C-level elite beasts are comparable to peak experts."

Zhao Wu coughed lightly before saying, "They say they're comparable to the peak, but in reality, they're far inferior to true peak experts. Otherwise, we'd all be dead here today—"

He let out a long sigh, then smiled slightly: "Regardless, at least we took down a C-rank elite beast today, which wasn't easy."

Afterwards, Fang Zimo took out the spoils from hunting those giant demonic flower pythons, which consisted of only a few symbiotic fungi and a blood-striped mushroom.

This time, Li Yu didn't want any of it and let them divide it among themselves, since he had already taken all the spoils from killing the Death Python.

He now has ten enhancement crystal cores saved up, and the symbiotic fungus he just obtained from the corpse of the Death Python, upon closer inspection, he discovered that it was a weapon-type symbiotic fungus with a fungal skill, named "Death Mushroom Fungus," with the fungal skill "Death Giant Mushroom."

Li Yu has not yet broken through and can only fuse two symbiotic bacteria at present. Although this "Death Mushroom" looks good, he cannot fuse and use it, and he does not want to use it to replace the Heavenly Wolf Blade for the time being, so he can only put it away.

Li Yu leaned back to one side, lowered his eyes slightly, and felt the changes within his body.

In just half a day, he felt that the growth rate of the pupil fungus spores was equivalent to that of the entire previous day. Sure enough, hunting such powerful C-level beasts was necessary to stimulate the spores to grow faster.

In addition, he gained a deeper understanding of Yin.

This Yin-type fungal technique, "Yin Dog Power," has several states.

In normal conditions, Yin energy can strengthen the whole body and enhance strength, greatly improving his power. The side effects in this state are also minimal.

However, as the power of Yin continues to exert its influence, the effect will continue to increase. Once it reaches its limit, it can even forcibly activate the "super-capture" which has an interval of less than thirty seconds, and can even break through the limitation that it can only be maintained for one or two seconds.

"Superhuman Capture" can double his speed, but its biggest drawback is that it lasts for a short time and only increases speed; his strength and physical abilities are not improved accordingly. Yin power fills these gaps.

In addition, the abilities of the "Eye of Truth and Delusion" have been enhanced, and even the effect of the fungal technique "Sirius Slash" in the Sirius Blade has been strengthened by the fusion of Yin power.

However, under such extreme conditions, it is as if his body's potential has been overdrawn, which will result in severe side effects.

"So it seems that as long as we control the Yin power and don't overexert it, and just maintain the basic state without entering this extreme state, there shouldn't be too many side effects."

Li Yu was deep in thought. After all, he was only at the advanced level, and "Superhuman Capture" could only last for one or two seconds, so he couldn't use it continuously.

If he can control the Yin power within a certain range without causing strong side effects, then he can use the Yin Dog at any time, allowing him to maintain a combat power beyond the advanced level in battle.

With this idea in mind, Li Yu began to try it out, resting while silently activating the "Yin Power" again.

This time, he focused his attention on his heart and began to learn how to control the outburst of Yin energy.

When the "Yin Power" was activated, his heart immediately started beating faster, and a surge of energy rushed out, strengthening his entire body and increasing his power. After that, Li Yu tried to control the continuous increase of the "Yin Power".

Soon, he withdrew his Yin power again, sensed his physical condition, and then activated it again, trying this repeatedly.

Everyone is resting. Several key members of the team are seriously injured, so they are temporarily unable to continue hunting and can only hide here.

Little did they know that while Li Yu appeared to be resting, he was actually constantly trying to control the "Power of the Yin Dog".

As I gradually came to appreciate the wonders of this special power, I began to gain insights into controlling Yin.
