Chapter 603: Destroy from Within
Jiang Xiaobai was now fully channeling the power of the Seven Treasures Pagoda!
Due to his own purple cloud spiritual divine origin, and the different world rules, he still could not determine what level his strength had reached for now.
But facing such a ferocious creature, there was nothing else he could do but going all out in attack.
Moreover, Jiang Xiaobai turned around carrying the Abyss Rainbow, and directly aimed a sword strike at the head of the giant python.
The two-tiered attack combined, and the giant python couldn’t anticipate that Jiang Xiaobai would suddenly undertake such a move while it was charging forward at high speed.
Immediately, the python was hit hard by Jiang Xiaobai. Even with its formidable strength and hard scales, it couldn’t withstand the double attack of two acquired spirit treasures.
Red blood gushed out, splattering and dyeing Jiang Xiaobai’s body red. Soon after, the giant python reared its blood-soaked head, roaring in rage.
With the python raising its head, its belly was exposed, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t hesitate and directly struck it with his sword.
A cut immediately appeared on the golden python’s belly, where the defence was indeed weaker than its scales.
After this strike, Jiang Xiaobai quickly moved to the side. Almost the moment he dodged, a dark edge pierced the spot where he just stood, striking the python’s belly fiercely.
Whoosh!
The wound Jiang Xiaobai had opened widened, blood flowing freely!
This was, of course, the result of the perfect cooperation between Jiang Xiaobai and Qiongyu!
Jiang Xiaobai’s Abyss Rainbow was sharp enough to pierce through the tough scales of the giant python.
But his own strength was not as great as Qiongyu’s!
Nevertheless, they could work together!
Jiang Xiaobai would open wounds on the enemy, and Qiongyu would follow up with an attack to tear the wound open further, causing severe injuries!
This was the tactic they had developed over the past few days, and they had achieved a certain level of understanding and coordination.
Jiang Xiaobai would use his Abyss Rainbow to create an advantage, and Qiongyu would use her strength to enlarge it!
After the strike, both of them swiftly retreated because the python was now in a full-blown rage and lunged towards them with its mouth wide open.
Luckily, they had already prepared for this kind of attack and easily dodged it. Seeing this, everyone else who could find an opening to strike the python’s belly would never let the opportunity slip by.
Regrettably, they all knew that the python’s strength was too great!
It was already comparable to the terrifying giant spider they had encountered before. Just finding an opportunity to harm the huge python was considered extremely lucky.
Later, the giant python seemed to realize its weak spot had been spotted, so it no longer carelessly exposed its belly.
At the same time, its attacks against Jiang Xiaobai grew increasingly ferocious. Several times, he almost couldn’t dodge them in time and was saved by Qiongyu.
“Damn it, why is this thing so hard to deal with?”
Just as Jiang Xiaobai cursed loudly, the python’s thick tail swept across towards him.
He quickly ducked and narrowly avoided the lethal strike.
Joint attacks from everyone around him were unceasing, but the injuries inflicted on the python were merely scratches. The giant python’s entire focus was on Jiang Xiaobai!
As for Jiang Xiaobai himself, he could hardly find any opportunity to counterattack the python!
The python was attacking him wildly, either opening its mouth wide or swinging its tail. Jiang Xiaobai knew clearly that if he was struck once, he would certainly be critically hurt, if not dead!
“We can’t continue like this, we need to find a solution.”
Qiongyu called out anxiously because if they didn’t deal with the python quickly, every person present would be doomed.
“Master, you…”
“Don’t look at me, I won’t make a move. Keep it up, Xiaobai, believe in yourself, you can do it!”
Before Jiang Xiaobai could finish his sentence, Gu Ning interrupted him with a loud yell.
At the same time, she took two steps back.
Jiang Xiaobai was so frustrated by her behavior he almost spat out blood!
With no other options, he understood Gu Ning’s concerns and knew it was up to him to find a solution.
There were many possible tricks up his sleeve, but he couldn’t use them recklessly.
Especially the major kill switch of the congenital spirit treasure. If he used it here and later encountered a more terrifying test at the exit, it might not be effective.
Relying on others is never as reassuring as depending on himself.
Just as he was thinking this, the giant python suddenly opened its mouth and lunged towards Jiang Xiaobai. That gigantic mouth was large enough to swallow not just Jiang Xiaobai, but ten of him with ease!
In the heat of the moment, Jiang Xiaobai got an idea!
Facing the oncoming mouth of the python, instead of retreating, he charged straight towards it!
Everything happened in a flash, nobody had time to react before they saw Jiang Xiaobai rushing towards it, seemingly swallowed by the python!
Yes, to everyone present, it looked like Jiang Xiaobai was intentionally trying to commit suicide, letting the giant python swallow him.
The python obviously didn’t expect this either, it hesitated for two seconds on the spot.
“Jiang Xiaobai!”
Qiongyu shouted out in horror, “Damn it, what the hell is he doing, everybody, retreat now!”
Regardless of what Jiang Xiaobai was planning, without his hold back, everyone knew that the python was bound to choose a new target.
And who the next target would be, nobody could tell!
Therefore, retreating first would be the wisest choice!
Seeing Jiang Xiaobai’s actions, Baihe and Gu Ning had a twitch in their faces and looked at each other.
“What is he doing?”
“I don’t know, I guess he is trying to attack it from the inside.”
“But with the giant python’s strength, he would be instantly digested once swallowed. We should step in.”
Gu Ning said and was about to make a move.
But at that moment, the python started thrashing about violently in the passage. Its huge body twisting and hitting around, causing the ground to quiver!
The python seemed to be in agony!
After this wild thrashing lasted for less than ten seconds, the python suddenly raised its head and let out a silent roar.
Then, it slammed its head against the stone wall and fell down, motionless.
Seeing this, everyone was greatly shocked.
Everyone immediately thought Jiang Xiaobai was up to something. Qiongyu also realized this quickly and rushed towards the python’s body.
“Qiongyu, don’t go, what if the python isn’t dead?” Su Tian shouted out.
But Qiongyu wasn’t listening, she reached the side of the python’s body and continuously called out Jiang Xiaobai’s name.
However, the python’s body remained motionless. If Jiang Xiaobai were the cause of all this, then surely there should have been some movement within the body of the python by now.
But right now, the python’s body was eerily calm.
Qiongyu, for some reason, felt very anxious. She wanted to save Jiang Xiaobai from within the python.
She considered different methods, planning to disembowel the python.
But after a full-force attack, she only ended up making a small cut in the python’s belly. The flesh was too tough, it was impossible to disembowel it in such a short time.
Just when everyone was tense, the head of the python twitched slightly!
Everyone was so scared they couldn’t utter a word and kept their eyes fixed on the python’s head. Then, in front of their stunned eyes, someone crawled out of it.
“Damn, if I had known it was so gross in there, I wouldn’t have gone in!”
