The roar was filled with violence and pain.
Immediately, the entire mountain shook violently, and finally, with a loud bang, a black python hundreds of feet long rushed out from the towering mountain!
This giant black python was extremely large, its body covered with black scales, and a thick black mist swirled around these scales. The only flaw was that its tail was broken off.
The python's head was quite terrifying, because it was not an ordinary snake face; rather, it looked more like a human face.
With its snake-like body and human face, it gives off a creepy feeling, no wonder this long snake is called the so-called Devouring Demon Python.
As soon as this ancient Devouring Demon Python appeared, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and terrifying black energy condensed within them, creating an extremely powerful aura.
A pair of blood-red eyes, each as big as a millstone, hung in the sky like two large red lanterns, filled with violence and murderous intent.
It stared intently at Xiao Ning, its eyes filled with apprehension.
However, the pain of losing its tail made it hate Xiao Ning to the core. Although it felt a powerful and formidable aura from Xiao Ning, it was not enough to stop its revenge.
"Hiss hiss hiss!"
The snake's forked tongue spun rapidly. It could no longer restrain itself, and opened its ferocious maw, unleashing a black beam of light filled with a foul stench, which shot straight toward Xiao Ning.
"Bang!"
Seeing the Devouring Demon Python's attack approaching, Xiao Ning naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait to die. In an instant, he rushed forward, transforming into a golden light and dashing up like lightning.
The enormous fist slammed out, and a terrifying air burst instantly formed beneath it, eventually transforming into a horrific storm of energy that crashed heavily onto the Devouring Demon Python's body.
"Aww!"
Xiao Ning's merciless, all-out punch completely shattered the black mist on the Devouring Demon Python's body, even causing its body to explode. The long snake let out a mournful howl, writhing on the ground in pain.
"roar!"
In an instant, the snake's eyes turned red. It let out a fierce howl and charged at Xiao Ning, as if determined to fight to the death.
"Ha, you fool!"
Xiao Ning sneered, then charged forward, raising his fist and pounding down repeatedly, punching the snake more than ten times until it stopped moving.
Standing up, I saw that the ferocious Devouring Demon Python was dead beyond any doubt. Its head had been smashed into a bloody pulp, and blood and flesh were flowing all over the ground.
"As expected, a beast is a beast. Even with extraordinary power, it has not escaped the shackles of its animalistic nature. Knowing it can't win, it still fights to the death. How pathetic and pitiful!"
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Ning flicked away the blood and flesh that stained his body, returning to his normal size, and then strode towards the serpent's lair.
This mountain is extremely steep and massive, but no other ferocious beasts live there; they have all been driven out by the ancient Heavenly Demon Python.
Following the faint energy fluctuations emanating from the mountain, Xiao Ning quickly located the lair of the Devouring Demon Python.
This place, located in the heart of this mountain, is cold and damp, littered with bones, including some human remains. It's unknown which unfortunate creatures were eaten by this Devouring Python.
Xiao Ning remained expressionless as he walked through the small hills of bones, finally stopping at the end of the cave.
At the end of the cave was a patch of scarlet rocks, and in the center of the rocks was a pool about ten feet wide.
The pool was filled with scarlet blood, and occasionally, blood bubbles would rise to the surface, bursting open and releasing extremely concentrated energy.
Floating on the blood pool were some animal bones, suggesting that the Devouring Demon Python often threw ferocious beasts into it.
Looking at the crimson pool of blood before him, which was so intense it made one's scalp crawl, Xiao Ning frowned, a faint sense of disgust rising in his heart.
He could sense that the blood pool possessed extremely rich energy. It seemed that this long snake had really gone to great lengths for this blood pool.
"I wonder if this thing will still work on me!"
Xiao Ning stroked his smooth chin, muttering to himself thoughtfully. He stared at the blood pool in front of him with a solemn expression. The energy inside was much more violent and concentrated than he had imagined. He wondered what the Devouring Demon Python had thrown in.
"Perhaps, it's like monkey wine? Humans can't replicate it, only monkeys can brew it? A secret of the species?"
After marveling at it for a while, Xiao Ning stood by the blood pool and pondered for a moment. Without further hesitation, he took a step, appeared at the edge of the blood pool, and then fell into the blood pool with a splash.
"Hiss!"
As Xiao Ning fell into the blood pool, the once quiet Devouring Demon Python Blood Pool suddenly boiled, with countless blood bubbles rising continuously.
The violent energy roared wildly through the blood pool, and faintly, a series of deep, thunderous, strange sounds rang out, spreading far and wide.
The moment Xiao Ning entered the blood pool, the massive and violent energy within it seemed to be stirred, and like countless venomous snakes, it surged into Xiao Ning's body!
Within this energy, something unknown had been added by the ancient Devouring Demon Python, giving it an extremely strong corrosive power. Upon contact with Xiao Ning's skin, it emitted bursts of white smoke, causing excruciating pain.
"Um?"
Physical torment and mental anguish.
Xiao Ning let out a soft exclamation, banishing these distracting thoughts and focusing on dealing with the surging energy.
From a distance, Xiao Ning's body appeared to be covered with small, snake-like protrusions that seemed to be moving around inside him, making him look extremely terrifying.
"breathe!"
Xiao Ning fully activated the "Dragon Elephant Body Refining Technique," his breath sounding like thunder from the heavens, creating a deafening roar.
His muscles swelled up from the violent energy, and his already perfected Dragon Elephant True Body even experienced a slight increase in physical strength.
The viscous, mercury-like energy of blood and qi circulated continuously within the body, constantly strengthening it.
His entire body exuded a powerful aura, like that of a ferocious beast, terrifying beyond measure.
