Chapter 235: Chapter 154: Demon Beast Fiery Sun Bird; New Progress on the dicinal Liquid
"Holy shit!"
Cheng Zongyang’s expression changed. He instinctively executed his Wind-Stepping Step, a Body Technique honed through countless battles with Exotic Beasts in the Cultivation Room, and dodged swiftly to the side.
In that sa instant, an incredibly fast fireball grazed past his body. With a BANG, it slamd into a tree trunk, instantly snapping it in two as flas erupted upward!
"So it was you!"
A look of delight appeared on Cheng Zongyang’s face!
’I thought it was just an ordinary Fierce Beast, a giant python. I never expected it to actually be an Exotic Beast!’
’This must be the one that destroyed the traps and devoured the prey!’
’Although this Exotic Beast’s size can’t compare to the Black-Horned Pythons in the Wilderness World, it’s still a genuine Exotic Beast!’
"Hahaha!" Cheng Zongyang laughed heartily, swapping his Bow and Arrow for his Tang Blade. Stomping his right foot against the ground, he shot forward!
His Body Technique was so Refined and Masterful from countless battles that executing it had beco pure instinct.
The way he had just dodged the giant python’s fireball was a perfect example.
Covering the distance of less than one hundred ters, Cheng Zongyang pushed off the ground just twice to reach the giant python’s side. The python, reacting with equal speed, lashed its tail at him like a whip. Cheng Zongyang’s face filled with fighting spirit. He casually raised his Tang Blade and executed the Thrusting Blade Technique of his Basic Saber Technique. Instead of retreating, he advanced to et the attack head-on!
With a sickening RIP, the Tang Blade tore through muscle and tissue, piercing straight through the python’s tail!
The imnse force of the tail strike instantly stopped Cheng Zongyang’s montum in its tracks.
But Cheng Zongyang dug his feet into the ground, bracing himself and withstanding the full force of the blow.
He channeled the impact through his legs and discharged it safely into the earth.
The blow had no effect on him, but it revealed just how powerful this giant python was.
The Iron Arrow was still piercing its body, and the prey was lodged in its upper stomach. These two consecutive injuries sent it into a frenzy.
Although Cheng Zongyang didn’t know what Grade this Exotic Beast was, he judged from the situation that it couldn’t be more than One-Star.
His Tang Blade was sharp enough to pierce the defenses of a Ghost-faced Spider. In the Cultivation Room, he could take down a Tiger King or a Wild Boar King in a one-on-one fight. This giant python, which he had already wounded, was no comparison.
A savage grin spread across Cheng Zongyang’s face. While his right hand kept the blade pinned, his left hand shot out like an eagle’s talon, plunging deep into the wound and gripping the raw flesh within.
The searing pain made the giant python thrash its tail violently, trying to fling Cheng Zongyang off.
But Cheng Zongyang’s grip—both with his blade and his hand—was like a vise. Seizing the opportunity as the python thrashed, he kicked off the ground with his right foot. He vaulted into the air, using the python’s own tail to swing himself upward before adjusting his posture to co crashing down from above.
His body weight bore down on the python’s tail, driving the embedded Tang Blade downward with it.
THUNK!
As he landed, he pinned the tail hard to the ground. The Tang Blade was driven so deep that only its hilt remained visible, the rest of the blade completely embedded in the python’s flesh and piercing into the earth below.
The unending, excruciating pain made the giant python shriek madly, sending it into a wild frenzy.
With its tail pinned to the ground by the Tang Blade, the python was immobilized. It could only swing its head around, open its massive jaws, and spit fireballs at Cheng Zongyang.
But to Cheng Zongyang, the attacks seed slow and lacked any real accuracy. He dodged them all with ease using his Body Technique.
At the sa ti, he used his Body Technique to quickly close in on its belly. He mobilized the wisp of Inner Strength from his Dantian, then rained down one ferocious strike after another onto its body with his Great Strength Vajra Palm.
BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!
Each powerful blow landed like a terrifying boulder falling from the sky, creating a series of dull THUDS against the python’s body.
Although Cheng Zongyang had not yet undergone Washing Marrow to cultivate true True Qi, so he couldn’t use it to inflict even greater internal damage.
But the power augnted by even a wisp of Inner Strength was on another level. It was like a physical attack that ca with an armor-piercing effect.
With his current Power at the Sixth Grade Realm, amplified by his Innate Divine Power, a single palm strike at full strength could deliver nearly two tons of force. Infused with a hint of Inner Strength, he could shatter a boulder, to say nothing of a creature of flesh and blood!
Even if that creature was an Exotic Beast!
After just four or five palm strikes, the already wounded giant python lost all strength to resist. It let out a final cry and slamd heavily onto the ground. With blood trickling from its mouth, it was clearly on the verge of death, its breaths growing faint.
It might have been able to spit fireballs of imnse power, but since it couldn’t land a hit, it was nothing more than a sitting duck once Cheng Zongyang got in close.
When a lee Warrior gets close to a Mage, there’s only one possible outco.
The giant python’s combat power and threat level were far inferior to the Wild Boar King with its Copper Skin and Iron Bones.
Seeing that no one was around, he sent the giant python directly into the Wilderness World, wanting to test if killing it there would award him any Points.
But he was overthinking it.
After he ended the python’s life, no Points notification appeared. He decided to inspect it.

Reading the introduction, Cheng Zongyang’s gaze sharpened.
’It’s as if sothing just clicked in my head. The root cause of everything seems to make sense now!’
He removed the python’s Snake Gall and stored it in what looked like a marketplace hut, then brought the corpse back out into the real world.
He planned to take the giant python’s body back to the village to show everyone that Exotic Beasts were real.
But first, Cheng Zongyang put out the surrounding fires to prevent them from burning down the forest.
