135 Fighting the three headed snake (1/2)

Seeing that the snake was chasing after him, Bai Yun cursed. ”What the hell are you chasing after me for you stupid snake? I left the lotus for you. You can have it. I won't fight over it.” But the snake did not listen and continued chasing after Bai Yun.

What Bai Yun did not know was that snakes had an excellent sense of smell. The three headed snake had smelled the three other lotuses on Bai Yn. That was why it was determined to catch him.

Bai Yun realised that the snake was slowly but surely catching up to him. He could probably escape with soundless motion, but Bai Yun knew that with the snake's sense of smell, it would soon track him down once his qi ran out. So with no other choice, Bai Yun decided to stay and fight.

Seeing that Bai Yun had stopped, the snake quickly caught up with him. The snake was over ten meters long, and the way it stood, it was over a meter tall. Its eyes were level with Bai Yun's. The two of them stood there staring at each other for a moment.

The snake took a deep breath, then the mouth of the middle head opened up and a thick green smoke came at Bai Yun. Seeing this Bai Yun cast soundless motion and got out of the way of the smoke. When Bai Yun stopped and looked back at the place he was standing at, he realized that it had all turned into a wasteland. All the greenery at that place had quickly wilted and died. With this Bai Yun had understood the ability of the middle head, poison.

The snake hissed and the next moment a snake tail the size of a tree trunk came at Bai Yun. Bai Yun barely had enough time to block it with his sword before he was hit. The force of the collision send Bai Yun skidding back a couple of meters.

The snake turned around and lunged at Bai Yun with its three heads. Bai Yun cast soundless motion to dodge the attack.

Bai Yun maneuvered around to the back of the snake. In a single motion, Bai Yun struck at the snake's back. But the sword only left a shallow mark on the snake's scales.

Feeling angered, the snake turned around and coiled around Bai Yun. Seeing the danger, Bai Yun jumped up high. The snake followed suit and jumped up at Bai Yun. Bai Yun used the soul tendrils to change his direction and landed lightly on the snake's middle head. The next moment Bai Yun cast soundless motion and appeared on a tree a little distance away.

The three headed snake was pushed down by the force of Bai Yun's movement. But it simply turned around and lunged right at Bai Yun once again.

Bai Yun regretted that he hadn't made a good bow until now. If he had a great bow, Bai Yun could shoot down the snake without getting too close to it. Bai Yun wasn't too afraid of its strength. Bai Yun could definitely handle this beast. But it was its elemental attacks that made it a horror to be around.

By now the snake had neared Bai Yun once again. Bai Yun jumped off the tree and landed on the ground. From there he stabbed up towards the snake's middle head.

But the snake twisted its body almost as if it knew that Bia Yun was coming for its middle head. Its right head turned around and appeared in front of Bai Yun. It opened up its mouth and took a deep breath. Sensing a great danger, Bai Yun wrapped himself in his four soul tendrils and swung himself to the side.

But it was a little too late. Sharp wind blades shaped like little needles appeared from its moth and headed straight towards Bai Yun. Even though Bai Yun got out of the way, he was still hit by a few wind blades.

With this Bai Yun found out the element of the right head, wind.

Bai Yun had many small holes on his body. Even though each of the wind blades were quite weak, there were many of them. It caused Bai Yun to have many small cuts on his body, turning him bloody.

The snake turned towards Bai Yun, hissing. Bai Yun cast soundless motion and moved away right before the place he was standing was slammed into by the snake's tail.

Bai Yun knew that he had to get the snake to reveal the element of its third head before he could formulate a plan to kill it. In an instant, Bai Yun came up with a plan.

Bai Yun moved to the left side of the snake and attacked it from that side only. He was trying to make it so that the snake had to attack him with its left head. But the snake was dextrous and it kept on attacking Bai Yun with all three heads.

But Bai Yun was able to keep the snake's heads at bay with simple sword. Every time the snake would try to open its mouth to attack, Bai Yun would attack it too so that it would have to dodge.

And then Bai Yun leaped up into the air a little bit. He sharply kicked the middle and right heads of the snake, causing them to turn away in pain. But the left head bit towards Bai Yun who was in the air.
