Celestial being

Yuan Ming's pupils shrank suddenly and his body quickly leaned back.

The next moment, a wave of waves exploded on the river surface, and a huge ferocious snake head suddenly rushed out of the water, opened its bloody mouth and bit Yuan Ming.

Fortunately, Yuan Ming escaped in time and was not bitten. After that, the snake head and a ten-foot-long python body rushed straight up and reached into the air. The snake's tail lifted out of the water and swept across, hitting Yuan Ming hard in the lower abdomen.

There was a "bang" sound!

Yuan Ming felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen, and his whole body was thrown away by a huge force. He finally stopped after breaking three old trees.

He struggled to stand up, and there was a fishy-sweet taste in his throat. He immediately realized that the anaconda that had sneaked up on him was far more powerful than the anaconda before.

He boasted that he was somewhat sure when dealing with the anaconda, and he was worried about the disadvantages of the hair-clothing technique, so Yuan Ming never transformed. He wanted to rely solely on the power of the human body to try to kill the ferocious beast, but now he couldn't.

He used the magic power in his body to turn into a fierce white ape.

After he stood firm, he discovered that the anaconda that rushed out of the river was completely black and covered with diamond-shaped scales. On its head raised high, there was a spiral black horn and two eyes. His eyes were scarlet and bright, filled with bloodthirsty light.

"This is... a one-horned viper?" Yuan Ming hesitated slightly.

He had only seen the drawing of this thing in the "Illustrated Book of Common Ferocious Beasts" given by Zhao Tong. The appearance was only five points similar, but the text description and comparison characteristics were basically the same.

If it was really that thing, it would be troublesome, Yuan Ming sighed inwardly.

At this moment, the black viper had already launched an attack and swam in. It still maintained a high-headed posture, with a bloody mouth condescendingly spraying towards Yuan Ming.

A plume of thick purple smoke suddenly spewed out from its mouth and rolled toward the ground, instantly submerging an area of ​​ten feet in radius. The flowers and plants inside suddenly became exhausted and looked dry.

"The poisonous gas in the abdomen can wither grass and destroy blood. The venom on the back of the tinder frog can be used to dissolve each other." Yuan Ming memorized the description in the book and immediately hit the mark.

Even if this thing is not yet a first-level mid-level ferocious beast, it is almost there, and it is much more difficult to deal with than an ordinary anaconda.

Yuan Ming quickly stepped back to avoid the poisonous smoke that was catching up with him.

"Roar……"

But at this moment, a majestic beast roar suddenly came, followed by a powerful hurricane, which instantly accelerated the spread of the purple poisonous smoke, and soon covered an area of ​​100 feet in radius.

No matter how fast Yuan Ming escaped, he couldn't match the speed of the wind, and he was immediately enveloped.

He subconsciously closed his breath and quickly fled towards the outside. However, the purple smoke all around not only obscured his sight, but also corroded the hanging vines on the trees.

Even the branches of the ancient tree became dry because of it. Yuan Ming tried to climb up several times, but as soon as he grabbed hold, the branches would rot and break, causing him to fall down.

"It's trouble this time." Yuan Ming frowned and could only hold the long sword in his hand and stare at the surroundings.

At this moment, the ground beneath his feet suddenly trembled, and a black shadow moved sideways, bringing with it a strong wind.

Yuan Ming sensed something was wrong and quickly blocked with his sword.

Just listen to the sound of "clang"!

The edge of the herring sword struck the scales of the one-horned viper, sending up a string of sparks.

The huge force forced Yuan Ming back again. Although it was not as embarrassing as last time, it also broke the breath he had been holding in his mouth and involuntarily inhaled the purple poisonous smoke.

The moment the poisonous smoke entered Yuan Ming's mouth, there was a burning and dry feeling in his mouth and throat, as if he had swallowed a mouthful of live coals. He felt pain and dryness, which was very uncomfortable.

Yuan Ming quickly held his breath again and looked around intently.

In the diffuse poisonous smoke, black shadows struck again. Two lanterns glowing red were lit inside, but instead of the viper's body, its head rushed toward Yuan Ming.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Ming immediately gathered strength in his arms, his muscles bulged, and the magic power surged out of his Dantian and poured into the Herring Sword.

When the one-horned leader rushed forward, he raised his arm high, the green sword in his hand shone brightly, and struck down the middle of the two bright red lanterns with one strike.

The huge head of the one-horned viper seems to be charging wildly, but in fact it controls the direction extremely accurately.

The spiral tip in the middle of its head was like a spear thrusting straight at it, striking exactly the edge of the sword in Yuan Ming's hand.

There was a sound of metal clashing, followed by waves of trembling sounds.

The long sword in Yuan Ming's hand was shaken by the huge force and he almost lost his hand. The one-horned viper was also beaten to a halt and had to shake his head to relieve the force.

At this time, Yuan Ming stabilized his figure one step faster than it, and rushed forward in a few steps. He held the herring sword tightly with both hands, turned his body in a big circle, and swung the sword to slash horizontally. On the belly of a one-horned viper.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang"

At the same time as a string of sparks flew, a flash of blood appeared.

The one-horned viper's scales were cut open by Yuan Ming's powerful and heavy blow.

"If you can hurt it, you can still fight it." Yuan Ming felt happy.

However, before he could be happy for a while, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse.

The ground beneath Yuan Ming suddenly shook violently, and the earth and rocks on the ground cracked, suddenly revealing a hole.

Before he could react, he had already fallen down and fell into the gap.

Immediately afterwards, the cracked ground revealed half of the body of the viper that had already been entangled. As soon as Yuan Ming fell down, it immediately shrank the snake's body and entangled him in the middle.

Yuan Ming was shocked, this viper actually set a trap for him?

His whole body tightened, and powerful force squeezed from all directions, making his chest bones rattle. Bile surged up in his abdomen, and his throat suddenly felt bitter.

"What a powerful force." Yuan Ming thought to himself, and all his strength began to explode, trying to open the viper's body.

However, as soon as he resisted a little, the viper's strength increased exponentially. The friction of his chest bones suddenly became more intensive, the heaviness in his chest also intensified, and his breathing began to become unsmooth.

He forcibly freed the arm holding the sword, used the strength of one arm, and tried to slash with the sword.

But at this time, the poisonous gas he had just inhaled began to take effect, and the circulation of qi and blood in his body suddenly became stagnant. Although he could still mobilize his magic power, his strength began to weaken rapidly.

As the one-horned viper tightened its restraints again, Yuan Ming suddenly felt his arms soften and he could no longer hold the long sword. His wrist crooked and fell to the ground with a "snap".

In the face of absolute power, Yuan Ming felt despair for the first time.

When the one-horned viper saw that Yuan Ming had been disarmed and showed signs of exhaustion, it stopped tightening its body and walked around to Yuan Ming with its head held high.

A pair of scarlet eyes looked down at him, with some human-like emotions in them.

Yuan Ming read hatred, resentment, contempt and cruelty from it.

Obviously, this one-horned viper was completely different from the ferocious beasts he had encountered in the past. Not only was it extremely powerful, it also had extremely high intelligence.

The blood in Yuan Ming's body was stagnant, and his strength was severely drained. He struggled to control his arms and groped around his body.

The one-horned viper thought he had some more tricks to use, so he immediately tightened his body again.

"Well……"

Yuan Ming couldn't help but let out a cry of pain, and his body couldn't help but straighten up.

The viper no longer hesitated, its huge head poked towards Yuan Ming, and it opened its mouth to swallow the delicious food in front of it.

Yuan Ming was restrained by it and could not escape at all. He could only pinch a magic formula with one hand and shouted in his mouth: "Get up."

The next moment, a green halo lit up in front of the One-Horned Viper, and huge wooden thorns suddenly rose from the ground and stabbed up.

After being promoted to the third level of Qi Refining, his Wood Thorn Technique has also made great progress. Now he can activate the Wood Thorn Technique without touching the ground with his hands, and his casting speed has also been accelerated a lot.

However, the power of the Wood Thorn Technique is limited and cannot break through the scales of the One-Horned Viper Python. It can only lift its body and cannot hurt it at all.

The one-horned viper's body was suddenly lifted up, and it lost its balance slightly. The snake's head passed by Yuan Ming, but failed to bite him.

But Yuan Ming's hand had accurately penetrated the wound on its abdomen.

The one-horned viper felt the pain and immediately leaned back, and the palm that Yuan Ming had pierced was pulled out.

Blood spattered, and the one-horned viper suddenly became furious. It opened its mouth again and bit Yuan Ming in one bite.

This time, Yuan Ming did not use the Wood Thorn Technique again, or even dodge. Instead, he stared at the One-Horned Viper with both eyes and silently counted: "Three, two, one."

When he finished counting, the head of the one-horned viper that rushed down suddenly froze in mid-air.

Its scarlet eyes flickered. First there was a brief moment of stagnation, and then a sign of struggle began to appear. Then it actually let go of the snake body that bound Yuan Ming, fell to the ground and began to struggle violently.

Yuan Ming fell to the ground and let out a dry cough. He quickly rolled forward, picked up the herring sword on the ground, and turned to look at the one-horned viper.

I saw its body twisting and rolling crazily on the ground. A snake tail rushed across, sweeping in all directions, sweeping up large amounts of smoke and dust, and breaking several old trees.

The splashing sand and gravel and the collapsed wood chips dispersed a lot of the poisonous smoke that filled the surrounding area.

Yuan Ming endured the severe pain, forcibly summoned a burst of magic power, stimulated the circulation of his own blood, and rushed towards the struggling one-horned viper with his long sword.

He dodged the viper's tail that swept around him, jumped up, and landed on top of it.

Yuan Ming glanced around and saw that the wound on the belly of the one-horned viper python had expanded a lot, and black vine-like things suddenly appeared inside, growing wildly and burrowing into the flesh of the viper python.

"Fortunately, I didn't throw it away at that time." Yuan Ming was secretly happy.

Just now, while he was in contact with the one-horned viper, he stuffed the tumor that had parasitized the black bear into the viper's wound.

That thing looks like a stone, but when it encounters blood, it will absorb it crazily, resurrect, and compete with the host for control of the body.

And now is the critical moment when the One-horned Viper Python and the Blood Soul Vine are fighting for the body.
