C8 (1/2)
On the second day, Fang Ligong and Fang Yunlong continued to advance towards the peak of the Azure Cloud Mountain. If they continued upwards, the road would no longer be visible. They would be surrounded by towering trees that would cover the sky and cover the sun. It was unknown just how many years they had lived for.
The forest was filled with twisted vines and trees, as well as dense shrubs, making it very difficult to advance. Under his grandfather's guidance, Fang Yunlong took the opportunity to practice the ”Fire Sun Sword Technique”, and became more and more proficient in it.
In the next few days, the two slowly crawled their way up the Azure Cloud Mountain. Fang Yunlong's greatest gain was that under the guidance of his grandfather, he frequently battled the wild beasts on the Blue Cloud Mountain, from jackals, wild boars, bears, tigers, and all kinds of poisonous snakes and pythons.
The wolf that gave him a headache initially wasn't his match anymore. Now that Fang Yunlong had started to practice using the formation technique he had mastered, although the formation technique wasn't very powerful, it was more than enough to deal with a few tigers and wolves.
On this day, the two finally walked out of the forest and saw the Azure Cloud Peak that pierced the clouds. At this moment, it was already somewhat cold. Not far away, the top of the mountain was covered in a layer of white snow. Under the illumination of the sun, it glimmered, forming a unique scenery.
Fang Yunlong slowly circulated the ”Holy Mantra of Flame” within his body. He could feel, although it had only been a few days, his internal energy had actually improved greatly, and now, even if he was wearing a simple set of clothes, as long as he activated the ”Holy Mantra of Flame” slightly, he would not feel any coldness. Instead, he would feel a warm feeling flowing through his body.
Just as the two were about to take a break, sharp squeaking sounds came from the northeast side of the two. Fang Ligong glanced at Fang Yunlong, as if asking about his current strength, and could feel the meaning behind his grandfather's gaze.
”Red Cloud Zong” was the best that could be heard, and a red light shot out towards the front, only then did Fang Yunlong's voice sound out, ”Grandfather, let's compete, who wants to arrive first?”
”Hahaha”, he did not care in the slightest about Fang Yunlong's shamelessness. Fang Ligong laughed loudly, activated his Qing Gong and followed behind Fang Yunlong.
”Red Cloud Zong” was truly worthy of being called the Fang family's ancestral Qing Gong. Their speed was indeed astonishing. The two of them arrived at their destination in a short while, and their squeaking sounds were even more urgent. Fang Ligong pulled Fang Yunlong forward, gently walked to the place where the incident occurred, and hid at the side to watch.
This was a cliff with a pine tree growing beside it. This pine tree was the biggest and thickest one Fang Yunlong had ever seen.
The tree was hundreds of meters tall, and the crown of the tree covered almost the entire cliff. Fang Yunlong could not help but praise the magic of creation.
At the top of the tree branch near the cliff, which was over a hundred feet high, there was a tree hole about a foot wide. In front of the tree hole stood an animal that looked like a squirrel.
It was about a foot tall, with a yellow fur. A short furry tail was tied behind its back, and its four limbs were short and small. Its hind legs supported its upright body, and its forelimbs were positioned in a fighting posture.
Anger actually flashed in its eyes. Its small ears were erect, and its sharp squeaking came from its whisker-like mouth. At this moment, there were quite a few scars on its body.
Black blood was flowing out, some parts of the yellow fur seemed to have been burnt. On the other side was its enemy. It was a several zhang long giant python with a body of red python skin. The head of the giant python was a round shape with a circumference of one foot.
It kept spitting out long red tongues in front of it, making it look horrifying. The most surprising thing was that its eyes were actually horizontal and long. There was even a small hole above its ferocious eyes, as if it had grown another small eye.
When Fang Ligong saw this python, he could not help but exclaim in a low voice, ”Dazzling Python?!” Despite his deep cultivation, he couldn't help but be a little afraid.
Hearing his grandfather's low exclamation, Fang Yunlong turned his head and asked softly, ”Grandfather, what are Dazzling Python?”
Fang Ligong said softly, ”The Dazzling Python s are the bloodlines passed down from the ancient beasts, their power is unfathomable. Their skin is incomparably hard and they are invulnerable to weapons and spears.
Legend has it that it was already extinct. Why did it suddenly appear here? I didn't meet him when I first came here a few times. ”
As if it was responding to Fang Ligong's explanation, the Dazzling Python attacked again, pouncing towards the squirrel-like creature. The python opened its mouth wide, and immediately trapped the squirrel, just as the gigantic python was about to swallow the squirrel.
Suddenly, a faint yellow halo appeared from the squirrel's body. The python's head actually couldn't close, the Dazzling Python's red tongue hissed, and the python's mouth slowly closed, the yellow halo on the squirrel's body slowly shrinking.
