Ye Ningze was unaware of this matter, as he and Lin Haitao were still recuperating in a cave.
Two days later, led by Li Daocheng, an elite martial artist from the First Academy, many students from the First Academy arrived before a dense forest and stopped on a small hill.
The person in the lead pointed to a colossal creature radiating golden light in the distance and said, "Look over there."
It was a golden giant python, its body covered in golden scales, with sharp double horns on its head. It was twice as large as the one Ye Ningze and Lin Haitao had dealt with before.
This was it! This giant python was a high-level demonic beast, extremely powerful. We must proceed with caution! If we are not careful, everyone from the First Academy could die by its hand!
Understood!
The other students from the First Academy nodded, then began to circulate their internal energy, concentrating their minds and holding their breath, preparing to launch an attack on the high-level giant python.
These elite martial artists from the First Academy, led by Li Daocheng, did not dare to be careless. They urged the students around them to prepare for battle!
This giant python could be considered a lord-level creature in the not-so-large Sunset Forest.
Countless fierce beasts normally submitted to it obediently; its strength was exceptionally formidable.
This high-level giant python had survived in the Sunset Forest for a very long time. Its strength was no longer what it used to be, and its eyes flashed with fierce, bloodthirsty gazes.
At this moment, it had not noticed that humans nearby dared to provoke it.
It stood there, eyes closed, enjoying the nourishment of the fresh air!
Just then, it felt sharp killing intent rushing towards it. It abruptly opened its eyes and saw a group of students appearing not far away.
It saw them charging towards it with fierce aggression, holding weapons in their hands!
These elite martial artists from the First Academy were all contemporary students of the First Academy.
Although these elite martial artists were reluctant to take risks, they also understood clearly in their hearts: if they did not act, the other ordinary martial artists would be instantly killed by it!
Seeing the enemies approaching, the giant python immediately became furious and roared towards the sky.
Instantly, a deafening roar echoed through the Sunset Forest.
A few martial artists with slightly weaker strength nearby directly fainted from this earth-shattering roar.
The elite martial artists charging at the front did not fare well either.
They felt a wave of dizziness, followed by a buzzing in their ears, and everything around them seemed to blur.
Not only them, but also the weaker martial artists behind them suffered the same fate. Their heads ached intensely, and some even collapsed to the ground, seeing stars.
Immediately after, the golden giant python opened its massive maw and lunged to bite at the elite martial artists at the forefront.
Those elite martial artists reacted swiftly.
They reacted almost instinctively and quickly retreated backward.
However, this action seemed like a joke to the golden giant python.
It did not take these people seriously at all, moving with astonishing speed, turning into a blur.
In the blink of an eye, it caught up to one of the leading elite martial artists and bit down fiercely with its gaping maw!
Ah!
A scream erupted from the elite martial artist at the very front.
He felt a chill on his neck, a piercing pain from his neck, and then his entire head was swallowed by the golden giant python, disappearing into thin air.
The others were stunned.
They had never expected that in just one encounter, their side would lose an elite martial artist!
This scene shocked them, filling them with fear!
Li Daocheng's expression turned grim. Although he had mentally prepared for some losses, he had not expected them to lose an elite martial artist in such a manner right from the start.
At this moment, the giant python had already swallowed the head of the leading elite martial artist. Red liquid dripped from its mouth, making it appear exceptionally eerie and ferocious.
The remaining elite martial artists finally reacted and frantically swung their weapons, hacking at the giant python!
While using their weapons, some martial artists also unleashed their ultimate moves, fully displaying their martial skills.
For a time, their true essence surged out, even containing extremely powerful martial skills!
Rumble!
A series of loud explosions echoed through the Sunset Forest. In this area, martial artists continuously fell to the ground and died. Many martial artists, while unleashing their skills, were also attacked by the giant python. Some ordinary martial artists had their heads crushed by the python's bite!
The elite martial artists could temporarily withstand the fierce attacks of the golden giant python.
However, this fierce battle also caused them to lose many of their members!
They continued to die in the midst of the struggle!
Anger flashed across everyone's faces!
Such fierce beasts should be killed obediently. How dare they cause such heavy losses!
They dared not be careless, continuously swinging their weapons, madly hacking forward, striking the golden giant python again and again, wanting to chop it into pieces!
However, the golden giant python was as hard as iron. No matter how frantically they attacked, its body remained unyielding.
Moreover, faint patterns gradually appeared on the golden giant python's body, seeming to exude a mystical majesty that enveloped its surface, protecting the colossal creature within.
The golden giant python continued to roar, flicking its forked tongue. A storm was brewing around its body, with the possibility of explosion at any moment.
Its eyes grew even more ferocious as it stared at the crowd before it, roaring savagely.
"Isn't this fierce beast a bit too powerful?!" someone in the crowd exclaimed.
This was a level six fierce beast, named the Golden Scale Venom Dragon Python. It was over thirty feet long, and its scales were as tough as diamond. A single touch could instantly tear a martial artist's physical body into powder. It possessed extremely strong defensive and offensive capabilities, and its specialty was close-range combat. Therefore, you must be careful! one of the elite martial artists warned in a deep voice.
What should we do now?! an elite martial artist asked uneasily.
This Golden Scale Venom Dragon Python was very powerful. If they continued to fight it head-on, they would likely exhaust all their true essence very soon.
And this Golden Scale Venom Dragon Python would continuously absorb the essence from the other martial artists, making itself stronger and stronger.
Let's wait for a moment! an elite martial artist said, I'll test the strength of this Golden Scale Venom Dragon Python first.
There aren't many choices. We can only try to test the strength of this Golden Scale Venom Dragon Python.
After all, the Golden Scale Venom Dragon Python's strength was simply too immense, and it was uncertain if even four or five martial artists working together could defeat it.
