C13 Python

Time flowed by between his fingers. In the blink of an eye, a day had passed. Dark clouds covered the sky above the silent forest, and the land had unknowingly sunk into darkness.

BOOM! A bolt of lightning suddenly streaked across the sky, illuminating the entire forest as if it were day.

"Crunch." A large tree that the three of them were barely able to hold had been split in half at the waist, falling to the ground with a loud bang.

"Hiss hiss!" At this moment, a sound that caused one's hair to stand on end sounded out in the forest.

Immediately afterwards, a purplish-black snake slithered out from within the trees. Wherever it passed by, the surrounding grass would wither quickly, and even the ground would show traces of black.

"Hiss hiss!" Moments later, another large snake came out. However, this one was slightly smaller than the previous one.

These two snakes were entirely purple-black in color. Their dense scales flickered with a dark purple glow, and a golden chicken crown grew on their heads. It gave off a strange feeling.

The two large snakes were both over a meter long. Although their bodies weren't considered large compared to the rest of the snakes, they still gave off a sense of danger.

One of them spat out its tongue and tried to search for something in the air. It then turned around and swam away. The other one caught up quickly.

Wherever they went, the grass withered, the trees were scorched black, and even the rocks began to emit black smoke as they quickly melted.

BOOM! Another clap of thunder rang out, shaking the entire forest.

"Pa Pa Pa Pa!" Soon after, bean-sized raindrops fell from the sky with crackling sounds. The rainwater strangely disappeared after coming into contact with the traces left behind by the two snakes. This showed just how strong the poison was!

After a day in the outside world, a hundred days had passed in the Primordial Fire Pagoda. In these hundred days, besides filling his stomach, Zhang Hao spent almost all of his time cultivating under the cover of the Star Flame.

Even Ling'er had scolded him as a lunatic, but even though the little girl said that, she was actually still extremely happy. Furthermore, she had been acting mysterious, so it was unknown what she was busy with.

Zhang Hao looked at the Immortal Star Flame's Elemental Fire Seed, which was not far away, gritted his teeth and took another step forward.

"Swish." The temperature of the silver flames surrounding him rose sharply once again.

"Hiss …" His bone piercing pain caused him to suck in a breath of cold air. His teeth chattered and the muscles on his face twitched continuously. This showed how much pain he was currently enduring.

The skin on his body began to crack inch by inch, and a bone-piercing pain quickly entered his mind, causing him to shiver uncontrollably.

As he got closer to the Elemental Fire Seed, the temperature increased exponentially. It was really a mystery as to how high the temperature of the Immortal Star Flame would be. After this thought flashed across Zhang Hao's mind, he quickly refocused his mind and returned to his cultivation.

In these three months in the tower, Zhang Hao's harvest could be said to be not small. As he walked closer to the fire core, he was now less than a thousand meters away from it. When he first saw it, he was shocked speechless.

This was a stone platform with a diameter of several kilometers. And on the stone platform, there were dense gaps that extended from the center to the distance, as if these gaps connected this stone platform with the grandmist fire tower.

On an altar in the middle of the stone platform, a three meter tall silver flame was constantly rising. The heat waves it emitted even caused the surrounding space to distort.

Zhang Hao was sitting on the stone platform right now. Ever since he had ascended the stone platform, the temperature of the fire had increased exponentially with every step he took. This also caused him to experience a lot of pain. His cultivation had also improved by a lot under such torture.

At the peak of the late stage of the first layer of the primal chaos technique, Shi Mu murmured to himself as the turbulent air swirl continued to appear in his dantian. He then quickly withdrew his consciousness and continued cultivating.

Outside of the pagoda, the crimson snake seemed to have sensed something and lifted its head with difficulty. It let out a sorrowful cry and crawled toward the distance. At that moment, two purplish black snakes jumped out from the forest.

When they saw the small snake, their prism shaped eyes immediately revealed a hint of joy as they quickly swam towards the former. Upon seeing the two purplish-black snakes, the little red snake hissed non-stop, as if it was a child who had seen its mother act coquettishly.

However, the intense pain from its entire body made it lie limply on the ground. When the two purplish black snakes saw this, their pupils revealed traces of worry, and they quickly swam to its side.

After seeing the little snake's injuries, the purplish black scales on its body stood up, and the golden crown on its head was filled with a blood-red color.

As for the small snake, it hissed and flicked its tongue at the black pagoda hovering in the air. Upon seeing this, the two large snakes immediately revealed a resentful look as they stared at the small pagoda. The pitch-black head also revealed a ghastly and human-like smile. This scene was extremely bizarre to the extreme.

At this moment, Zhang Hao's dantian was in a mess because of the cyclone. No matter how hard he tried to control it, it was useless. He could only watch the cyclone spin faster and faster.

In the end, the sound of air rapidly flowing could be heard.

BOOM! At this moment, the cyclone in his dantian suddenly exploded, and a visible energy shock wave appeared outside of his body.

Immediately after, he let out a muffled groan and spat out a mouthful of blood, which was quickly turned into nothingness by the Star Flame. Feeling that his dantian had become empty due to the disappearance of the cyclone, he could not help but curse, "Fuck, all these days of hard work have all been for nothing."

However, Liu Ming did not know that this was a sign that would appear only after entering the first layer of the Primal Chaos Formula. However, no one seemed to have taught him these things before.

At this moment, the white ball of light that had not moved for a long time trembled slightly, and a mnemonic chant appeared.

"Extreme Qi, Consolidating Equipment, Awakening from the World, Fasting into the Dao …" The second level chant? When Zhang Hao heard about this, his eyes were filled with joy. He quickly gathered his thoughts and started to practice according to the description of the manual.

Just as the cultivation technique was activated, a trace of fluctuation appeared in the empty dantian. Immediately after, the fluctuations became more and more intense. The true energy that had earlier spread out due to the explosion of the cyclone was rapidly gathering towards the center of the Dantian.

Along with the continuous accumulation of true qi, a silver drop of water also slowly appeared in the center of his dantian. Next, a second and a third drop appeared one after another!

As the silver droplets of water continuously appeared, the gathering speed of the surrounding true energy became faster and faster. Later on, even the spiritual energy outside his body formed a whirlpool around his body. Immediately afterwards, the spirit energy in the entire space of the fire tower began to rapidly rush over.

As more and more spirit energy gathered, his body was like a black hole, greedily absorbing this spirit energy before gathering it in his dantian.

As the spirit energy continuously flowed into his dantian, the silver droplets continued to flow into his dantian. In the end, they converged into a torrent that surged through his meridians and only returned to his dantian after a cycle.

Ling'er sat cross-legged as she meditated. Suddenly, she felt the Spiritual Energy within the entire room begin to roil.

She frowned and muttered, "What the hell is this guy doing now?" Recently, he had been acting like a lunatic. Other than training, was he cultivating? Was he suffering from some kind of stimulation? Or was his brain damaged by the snake poison? Pui, I'm worried about what he's doing. It would be better if he died early, that way I can find someone with a hundred times better talent than him to pass on the old master's cultivation technique. Hmph, just you wait, I will definitely succeed. "

He closed his eyes and formed a seal. Then, a suction force appeared around his body, and a surge of energy that he had never seen before was absorbed into his body. This little girl was surprisingly cultivating as well.

When Zhang Hao felt that the surrounding spiritual energy was no longer flowing into his body, he slowly opened his eyes.

After which, he let out a long breath of impure air, stood up, and felt the silver liquid flowing in his meridians, "This Chaotic Burning Heaven Art is really magical, I wonder how many times stronger this silver liquid formed from Zhen Qi is compared to before. If I meet that red snake again, even if I can't beat it, it wouldn't end up in a sorry state like last time, right?"

Picking up his clothes from the ground, he casually put them on. Stretching his body, he abruptly shot out a palm in front of him. Layers upon layers of palm shadows appeared, enveloping the space in front of him.

"Bam!" Soon after, a muffled explosion sounded out from the space enveloped by the palm shadows. Looking at this scene, Zhang Hao was speechless. He did not expect the power of the palm technique that Ling Er had given him to be so powerful!

Then, as if he had thought of something, he laughed and said, "I wonder if the little girl has any other cultivation techniques. I need to find an opportunity to get them out."

Just as this thought appeared in his mind, Ling Er, who was cultivating in the distance, shivered. She immediately opened her eyes and looked around, her cute and innocent face filled with suspicion as she asked, "Why do I feel like someone is scheming against me? It must be that guy, looks like I have to be more careful. "

If Zhang Hao heard her words, he would definitely be shocked by the little girl's keen senses. However, at this moment, his chest was heaving up and down, and he was panting heavily. Just now, when he was trying to cultivate the second move of the Demon Annihilating Palm, the spirit energy in his dantian started to flow rapidly.

As the Spiritual Energy entered his palms, they were covered with a faint layer of silver white.

With a loud roar, he sent a palm flying in front of him. However, when his palm struck out, the spiritual energy in his body immediately surged like a sluicing flood.

The palm that was thrown out swiftly turned into eight palm shadows, sealing off the surrounding space within a ten feet radius. Bang! Bang!

It was as if something had exploded in succession. This scene only lasted for a moment before it exploded with a loud bang. Zhang Hao also took two steps back before he managed to stabilize his body. His face was flushed red.

"F * ck, which bastard created this palm technique? If I can't use it, I'm going to suffer a backlash. Isn't this just cheating?" He cursed as he sat down to rest for a while. Then, he jumped off the grandmist fire tower's massive altar and began to walk away.

Ling'er suddenly heard the sound of footsteps. Without even thinking about it, she knew that the fellow had returned. She hurriedly ended her cultivation and laid on the ground, pretending to be asleep as if nothing had happened.

"Eh? How could you just randomly throw away a cultivation technique? Hehe, if you don't want it, then I won't be polite. "

When Zhang Hao saw the little girl pretending to be asleep on the ground after he returned, he felt annoyed. Am I that unsightly to look at? Why does this little girl always treat me like a thief? This was why he had teased her, unaware that Ling'er had long since treated him as a shameless person.

"Don't touch it, it's mine." When Ling'er heard that he had dropped his cultivation technique on the ground, she jumped up without even thinking about it.

However, when she saw Zhang Hao looking at her with a ridiculing expression, she knew that she had been tricked. She immediately said angrily, "You dare to lie to me? Do you want a beating? "

Hearing this, Zhang Hao immediately laughed, "Little girl, your temper has grown so much in just a few days. I want to see how you will beat me up!"

Upon hearing these words, Ling'er gritted her teeth and looked at his infuriating appearance. Her eyes shifted as she chuckled. "You said it yourself, so don't regret it."

Zhang Hao was overjoyed. This little girl had been acting so secretively recently, she must be doing something. Judging from her tone, it was definitely related to her cultivation technique. She should take this opportunity to investigate her background.

As he thought about this, he decided to anger Ling'er once again. With a look of contempt, he said, "Do you want me to let you exchange a few blows? Otherwise, you'll be cheating if you lose."

Sure enough, after Ling'er heard this, anger filled her cute face. Then, she pointed at him and said, "You …" "Just you wait! If I don't beat you until you beg for mercy today, I … I'll …"

"You what?" Zhang Hao asked in a teasing manner.

"I will be your slave and serve as your servant. I'll let you command me as you wish." Ling'er was obviously infuriated by this fellow. After she finished speaking, before Zhang Hao could react, an invisible wave of energy surged out from her body and charged towards him.

Zhang Hao obviously didn't expect her to make a move so quickly. He was caught off guard and felt a loud bang in his head as his vision darkened.

Inwardly, he knew that the situation wasn't good. He stomped on the ground and quickly retreated. At the same time, the spiritual energy in his body circulated rapidly and wrapped around his body to protect his vital points.

After Ling'er's successful attack, her small face revealed a look of excitement. She giggled and said, "See how I'll deal with you today. I'll let you have a good memory today so that you won't dare to try anything against me."

As he finished speaking, he suddenly waved his small hand. An invisible energy condensed into a hand seal and patted down at him from above. Zhang Hao was also slightly surprised. He didn't expect this little girl's attack to be so powerful.

Furthermore, this formless energy was so strange. Immediately, he put away his playful thoughts. Clenching his fingers tightly, he punched at the energy handprint!

"Bam." A hurricane formed by silver spiritual energy and invisible energy quickly spread out from the point where the fist and palm collided. Waves of ripples even appeared in the air wherever it passed.

Zhang Hao was forced back a few steps as well. Only then did he stabilize himself and hurriedly said, "Little girl, do you want to fight with your life on the line?"

He didn't expect that this palm strike would be so powerful.

When Ling'er saw that this fellow had suffered a loss, she immediately laughed happily. "Today, I am finally able to vent my anger. Hahahaha." That arrogant laughter made Zhang Hao's face darken.

However, before he could catch his breath, a powerful formless energy surged out from Ling Er's body, before transforming into a rapidly spinning fist that flew towards his chest.

From the looks of it, if she didn't beat him up today, she wouldn't be willing to give up.
