C41 (2/2)
At the same time, several strands of incomparable power landed on the python's body. The body of the python, which had long been depleted of its energy, was instantly frozen in ice and frost. Dozens of sword rays sliced its massive body into pieces in an instant.
The smell of blood gushed out from the python's body. It was as if a rain of blood had rained down from the sky. The air was filled with the thick smell of blood.
The moment the golden python's body shattered, Xiao Fei quickly rushed up to the python and grabbed the crystal core from its abdomen.
”Xiao Fei, we won.” Cao Qi shouted in surprise.
It had to be known that this was the first time they had entered Black Wing Mountain and killed a Spirit Sect Spirit Beast. Although everyone was covered in blood, they were genuinely happy.
Bai Chen felt a wave of worry in his heart as he hurried over to check on Zhang Fu's injuries. Just now, when the golden python had clawed at him, even though Zhang Fu had fled with all his might, he was still torn in half by the golden python.
”Zhang Fu, how are you doing? You have to hold on.” Bai Chen said nervously as he applied some medicine on Zhang Fu.
Zhang Fu's face was pale, but he smiled and said, ”I'm fine. Brother Bai Chen, don't worry.”
Zhang Fu's back was torn apart, but it was fortunate that it did not injure his vital parts. These spirit cultivators all had powerful self-recovery abilities, and they would only need to rest for two days to fully recover from such a small injury.
The first battle was a victory. The joy in their hearts quickly covered their wounded moods.
After the fierce battle, they were tired and sleepy, so they rested outside the forest.
The first time Bai Chen's group of four entered the Black Wing Mountain, they had hunted a Spirit Sect Rank Spiritual Beast. This was a great accomplishment. Even if they did not manage to obtain anything after this, they would not be mocked by others when they returned to the academy.
In the outskirts of Black Wing Mountain, Spirit Sect spirit beasts were quite rare. Most of them had fled back to the core region.
”Captain, are we still going to continue going in?” The danger from earlier had left some lingering fear in his heart. If he walked further in, he would get closer and closer to the core region. Although they had killed a Spirit Sect Spirit Beast, they might be able to kill even more Spirit Sect Spirit Beasts.
Xiao Fei coldly looked at everyone and could not hide the viciousness in his eyes as he looked at Bai Chen. From the looks of it, if not for the fact that he was in danger, Xiao Fei would have already attacked Bai Chen.
”Of course, we have to continue moving forward. This is our first time at the Black Wing Mountain. It would be best if we could kill one more Spirit Master from the Spirit Sect and return. That way, the elders would think highly of us.”
”Yes, it would be best if we could kill a few more Spirit Sect's Spirit Beasts. That way, the other students of the Ling Xiao Hall wouldn't look down on us.” Zhang Fu's pale face revealed a smile. Being familiar with everything in Canghai Academy, he naturally knew that the competition between the students in Lingxiao Hall was very intense.
If the four of them were to return empty-handed and couldn't even obtain a single spirit beast core, they would definitely be ridiculed by the other students. If they could kill a few spirit sect level spirit beasts, no one dared to look down on them.
”Haha, we've already obtained a Spirit Sect's level spirit beast core. If we're lucky enough to get another, we'll definitely be shocked when we go back.” Cao Qi laughed.
After the discussion was over, just as the four of them were about to leave, they suddenly heard rustling noises coming from afar.
Someone was coming? Xiao Fei's expression turned cold as he shouted in a low voice, ”Quickly hide.”
In this Black Wing Mountain, other than the people who came with them, all the other spirit beasts they saw, the sect disciples were all enemies.
The four of them then went into hiding, only to see seven or eight figures flying over from afar.
”Huh? Strange. Why do I smell the scent of blood? Could it be that someone has been here before?”
”No, it's the bloody aura of a spirit beast. Could it be that the golden python was killed by someone?”
”Junior Brother Tan, didn't you say that there aren't disciples of any other sect nearby? What's going on?”
In the midst of the discussion, seven or eight figures quickly flew out of the forest. These people were all dressed in black, there were men and women, and they were all 18 or 19 years old.
”Junior brother Tan, be careful. That giant golden python was probably killed by someone. Everyone be careful, there must be disciples from other sects nearby.”
The speaker was a black-clothed youth with a cold and arrogant expression. His eyes vigilantly scanned the surroundings for any signs of activity.
As for that Junior Martial Brother Tan, he lightly walked into the forest with his sword as if to inform someone else.
After a few breaths of time, a person rushed out from within the forest. With an unfriendly expression, he asked, ”Captain, Junior Brother Tan said that the golden python was killed by someone.”
”What?” The golden python was actually killed by someone? ”Who did it?” Soon after, a few more people walked out with serious expressions.
”Junior Brother Tan, didn't you say that there were no disciples from other sects nearby?” A few of them even directly asked that so-called Junior Brother Tan about it, and they all looked unfriendly.
The leader coldly scanned the surroundings and yelled, ”The stench of blood has not dispersed yet. The people who killed the golden python must not have gone far. Everyone, quickly search around the area. We must find them and retrieve the cores.”
The others immediately responded and spread out to search in all directions.
Bai Chen and the other three, who were hiding in the dark, tensed up. The place they were hiding was not far from the group of people. They saw that they were quickly searching for them.
