Chapter 140: Mud Swamp Python (Part 2)
Looking at the approaching Swamp Python, the flames of anger in Lei Yao's eyes were already blazing.
Under the effect of the Thunder Armor, the nearby mud had already been baked dry. Lei Yao hadn't moved because it was waiting for the Swamp Python to get closer.
When the Swamp Python was within three zhang of Lei Yao, it let out a roar, and the intense Thunder Element quickly converged toward it.
With a wave of Lei Yao's hand, a Thunder Blade two meters long appeared in its hand.
Under Lei Yao's control, the Thunder Blade slashed straight towards the Swamp Python that charged first.
The Swamp Python saw this and didn't choose to face it head-on. Instead, it twisted its body to dodge to the side.
Seeing this, Lei Yao's mouth curled into a cold smile. The Thunder Blade's target wasn't the Swamp Python, but the mud beneath it.
With a loud bang, the Thunder Blade directly slashed into the mud.
This strike blasted the mud at the point of the Thunder Blade's strike, leaving an open space about a zhang wide, and the Thunder Blade contained a very rich Thunder Element.
These Thunder Elements quickly spread around after the Thunder Blade exploded, and a lot of steam rose from the mud, turning the surrounding area of several zhang into dry soil.
The Swamp Python that had just dodged the Thunder Blade found itself trapped in the cracked earth.
Lei Yao's body trembled fiercely and directly broke free from the soil, then exerted its power through its legs to leap several zhang, landing in front of the Swamp Python.
At this moment, the other had just broken free from the soil, only to be greeted by the furious Lei Yao.
Lei Yao raised its left hand and firmly pressed the Swamp Python's neck, while its lightning-glowing right fist smashed directly towards its head.
The Swamp Python sensed the breath of death and tried its best to break free, but Lei Yao's power was too great. No matter how it struggled, it was futile.
With a muffled thud, Lei Yao's right fist pounded solidly on the Swamp Python's head.
Just one punch embedded the Swamp Python's head into the ground.
Lei Yao's attack didn't stop, one punch after another, until the Swamp Python stopped struggling completely.
The remaining four Swamp Pythons saw their kin's tragic state and quickly halted.
They looked at the cracked ground and began to gather the Mud Swamp Bomb again.
Chu Chen saw this and said in a deep voice, "Interrupt them."
As Chu Chen's words fell, the Angry Wind Elf launched an attack first.
A gray-white Wind Blade slashed directly towards the Swamp Python in front.
The Swamp Python had no choice but to stop its skill, twisting its body to dodge.
The Iron Armor Giant Lizard and the other Beasts also made their move, completely interrupting the Swamp Python's skill.
"Burning Flame Fox, launch a Fireball attack at the spot in front of that Swamp Python," Chu Chen commanded again.
The Burning Flame Fox, without any hesitation, gathered a Fireball and hurled it forward.
"Lei Yao, move."
As soon as Chu Chen's words fell, Lei Yao sprang into action, taking two steps before leaping across several zhang, landing precisely at the point of the Fireball attack.
Facing the suddenly appearing Lei Yao, the Swamp Python immediately pulled back, trying to distance itself from it.
Lei Yao's eyes flashed with a cold light, and it again powered through its legs, lunging at the Swamp Python.
Lei Yao's arms tightly wrapped around the Swamp Python, and the Power of Thunder on the Thunder Armor coursed over the Swamp Python's body.
The Swamp Python struggled frantically, trying to shake off Lei Yao.
But Lei Yao's strength was too great, it couldn't break free at all. Moreover, the paralyzing nature of the Thunder Element continued to take effect.
The Swamp Python only felt waves of numbness surging through its body, as if its strength was draining away.
At this moment, a huge fist came crashing down on its head.
"Bang, bang, bang"
A series of dull sounds echoed, and this Swamp Python followed its kin's fate.
A crisp "crack" sounded from the center of the mud pit at this time.
Everyone looked towards the noise, discovering that the source was where Nirvana was located.
Wang Lu saw this and said with some concern, "Chu Chen, think of a way, Nirvana can't hold on for much longer."
Chu Chen, upon hearing this, waved his hand and said, "It's not Nirvana that can't hold on, but that Swamp Python."
Wang Lu and the others showed confused expressions at these words.
Yet, they didn't ask for an explanation, instead, they fixed their gaze there, eager to see how Nirvana would break free from its binds.
At this moment, Nirvana was being strangled by the Swamp Python, the terrifying power continuously squeezing its body.
The earlier crack was the sound of Nirvana's Insect Armor shattering.
As the pressure increased, the Insect Armor shattered faster and faster.
The aura in Nirvana's body continued to strengthen until it broke through to the Ninth Rank War General Level, at which point it began to utilize Limb Regeneration.
The Insect Armor started to heal at an astonishing rate, the broken Insect Legs also returned to their original state.
Its Insect Legs now had a touch of silver to them, making them extremely sharp.
At this moment, its Insect Legs resembled six sharp swords. Nirvana swiftly retracted its legs, then thrust the tips outward fiercely.
The sharp Insect Legs penetrated directly into the Swamp Python's body, and under its squeezing pressure, the penetration deepened further.
The Swamp Python, in pain, issued a series of shrill screeches and quickly unwound itself, trying to flee.
Unfortunately, it was too late; Nirvana wasn't going to let it escape so easily.
Nirvana elevated its Ao Clamp to securely latch onto the Swamp Python's body, exerting immense force, plunging the enormous clamp into the Python's body.
If not for the skeletal blockage, the Swamp Python's body might have been cut in half.
Feeling the intense pain through its body, the Swamp Python let out a pained wail, its massive body writhing furiously.
Nirvana had no intention of letting go, holding tight no matter how the Python struggled, and the Ao Clamp kept applying pressure.
With a crisp "crack," the Swamp Python's bones were cut, and it lost the strength to struggle.
Dropping the Swamp Python's corpse, Nirvana swiftly climbed onto the rock walls of the tunnel.
The sharp barbs allowed it to move freely on the rocks, not affecting its speed in the slightest.
Nirvana quickly approached its target, and when it reached above it, it leapt down, embedding its sharp Insect Legs into the Swamp Python's body, anchoring itself to it before launching an attack with its Ao Clamp.
The six Swamp Pythons were quickly killed by the two beasts.
Wang Lu and others looked at Nirvana's terrifying combat power, all of them gazed at Chu Chen with shock.
They couldn't fathom how Chu Chen managed to cultivate such a powerful Star Beast in such a short time.
Chu Chen had no intention of explaining the curiosity of the crowd. Nirvana's body held too many secrets; any explanation would inevitably involve how it evolved.
This time, Wang Lu, usually oblivious, showed an unusual understanding and didn't pursue further questions.
