Ingesting Black Blood Stone, Slaying a 2nd Rank!

"Hiss, hiss, hiss!"

The Red Scale Python was thoroughly enraged by Chu Han's blade!

Its massive head whipped forward, slamming directly towards Chu Han.

Chu Han had no time to dodge and immediately activated Stone Skin, taking the blow head-on.

"Bang!"

A tremendous force surged through his arms, and Chu Han was sent flying like a cannonball.

He crashed through three large trees before his body finally slammed into the ground.

He felt his blood churning within him and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. His entire body felt like it had fallen apart, wracked with unbearable pain.

"Cough, this python's strength definitely exceeds 100,000 jin."

Chu Han gritted his teeth against the pain and stood up, only to see the Red Scale Python opening its maw and spewing a torrent of flames, even more ferocious than before, towards him.

Wherever the flames passed, the ground was scorched black, and the surrounding air seemed to warp. The scorching heat made it almost impossible for Chu Han to breathe.

At the brink of death, Chu Han frantically searched for a way to escape.

His gaze suddenly fell upon a pool of water not far away. Under the intense heat, the water was still emitting wisps of cool air, clearly indicating it was deep.

"That's it!"

Chu Han mustered all his strength and plunged into the pool like an arrow.

A wave of coolness washed over his body, bringing immense relief and even lessening his pain.

The Red Scale Python is Fire Attribute; it shouldn't chase me into the water, right? Chu Han pondered.

However, the Red Scale Python clearly had no such reservations. Its enormous body writhed as it dove into the water, pursuing Chu Han.

"This beast!"

Chu Han was both shocked and furious. But at this moment, he had no other options. His movements were even more restricted in the water, while the Red Scale Python remained incredibly agile. Its gaping maw drew closer and closer, threatening to swallow him whole.

"I'll risk it!"

Chu Han gritted his teeth, retrieved the Black Blood Stone from his storage space, and swallowed it whole.

There were many ways to use the Black Blood Stone, but swallowing it directly was the most discouraged and dangerous!

A human's body is fragile compared to an Exotic Beast. Directly consuming the Black Blood Stone, which contained a vast amount of vital energy, could very likely cause one to explode.

Even a 3rd Rank martial artist wouldn't dare to swallow it directly.

If they were to consume it, they would need other pills to protect their body.

Chu Han's direct consumption was a desperate measure born of necessity.

As soon as the Black Blood Stone entered his mouth, a boundless surge of vital energy flowed down his throat and into his body.

The energy, like a tidal wave, instantly filled every inch of his body. Chu Han felt as if his body was about to burst.

"Crack, crack, crack~"

His bones emitted cracking sounds like popping beans under the impact of the vital energy.

All his cells ruptured under the pressure of the energy, and Chu Han instantly became a bloodied mess, blood pouring from every pore.

The energy contained within the Black Blood Stone was far more violent than he had imagined.

If this continued, he would undoubtedly be torn apart by the energy!

In his desperation, Chu Han immediately retrieved the remaining two Body Tempering Pills from his spatial storage and swallowed them all in one go.

With the two pills down, the medicinal properties of the Body Tempering Pills began to rapidly repair his flesh and cells, while also helping his body quickly absorb the vital energy.

Chu Han could feel his physical body strengthening at an astonishing rate, hundreds of times faster than normal cultivation!

Simultaneously, the unabsorbed vital energy transformed into a bloody Origin Energy that swirled around him.

And this bloody Origin Energy, he could control!

With this Origin Energy, his strength increased severalfold, making him capable of fighting the Red Scale Python!

Furthermore, combat was the best form of cultivation and could, in turn, help him rapidly absorb the Black Blood Stone's energy.

At this moment, the Red Scale Python had gone mad.

It watched in fury as Chu Han swallowed the Black Blood Stone.

If you find this book enjoyable, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid losing it next time.

Its massive body twisted violently, its thick, tree-trunk-like coils parting the water as it lunged towards Chu Han with its gaping maw.

Previously, Chu Han would have been unable to dodge this attack underwater.

But now, he was reborn.

He stomped his feet in the water, and his body shot upwards like a marlin, incredibly sharp and swift.

The Red Scale Python's massive head missed again, slamming hard into a rock at the bottom of the pool.

"Now!"

Chu Han's eyes flashed with cold light as he gripped his long saber tightly.

The power within his body and the bloody Origin Energy swirling around him converged onto the saber's blade!

"Seven Forms of the Army Breaker, Fourth Form!"

This time, it was the Fourth Form imbued with Origin Energy, the true Fourth Form!

A meter-long bloody saber energy extended from the tip of the blade and fiercely slashed at the Red Scale Python's vulnerable spot.

Chu Han had already broken through the Red Scale Python's scaled defense at its vulnerable spot with a previous strike, making it the weakest point on its entire body.

"Pfft!"

Without any obstruction, the bloody saber energy directly cut through the Red Scale Python's flesh, sinking half a foot deep.

Dark red snake blood instantly exploded in the water, spreading rapidly and dyeing the entire pool a light red.

Severely wounded, the Red Scale Python let out a screech, sensing true danger!

It thrashed its massive body wildly, sometimes slamming against the pool walls, sometimes striking the bottom with its head, trying to shake Chu Han off.

Chu Han was prepared. After unleashing his strike, he forcefully grabbed the Red Scale Python's flesh at its vulnerable spot with his left hand, his fingers digging deep into the wound. Using the force of the snake's thrashing, he clung tightly to its back.

"Splash!"

Seeing that it couldn't shake Chu Han off, the Red Scale Python suddenly surged towards the surface of the pool, bursting out of the water and into the open air.

Now that it was outside, it could burn this damned human to death with its flames!

The Red Scale Python's massive body landed on the ground. It immediately turned its head, aiming its gaping maw at Chu Han on its back, and spewed a torrent of flames!

"Boom!"

Red flames instantly engulfed Chu Han and the Red Scale Python.

Chu Han felt a bone-chilling heat wash over him. He quickly channeled his bloody Origin Energy to protect his body and block the flames' scorching heat.

At the same time, he poured more Origin Energy into his long saber and unleashed the Seven Forms of the Army Breaker, Fourth Form, aiming for the Red Scale Python's wound at its vulnerable spot, and thrusting fiercely!

"Die!"

The bloody long saber pierced directly through the Red Scale Python's vulnerable spot, its tip emerging from the other side, bringing with it a gush of scalding snake blood.

"Hiss!"

The Red Scale Python let out one final, piercing screech. Its massive body began to writhe frantically, its tail sweeping away surrounding trees and black stones, leaving the ground in disarray.

Soon, its body grew weaker and weaker, its thrashing movements becoming smaller until it finally lay rigid on the ground, lifeless.

Chu Han released his saber and let out a long sigh.

"A Tier 2 Exotic Beast, finally taken care of!"

After the battle, he had absorbed half of the Black Blood Stone's essence blood, and his physical body was still continuously growing stronger.

At this moment, a violent hunger struck him.

It felt as if he hadn't eaten for lifetimes, a hunger that gnawed at his body and soul.

He then remembered a side effect of absorbing the Black Blood Stone: an intense hunger that required a large amount of food to be prepared beforehand.

But he had been in a crisis back then and couldn't afford to worry about such things.

He needed to eat something now to replenish his energy and alleviate the hunger.

However, the craving grew stronger, beyond his control.

Chu Han lunged at the Red Scale Python's wound and began to devour its flesh and blood.

"Gulp, gulp!"

The Red Scale Python's fresh blood was sucked into Chu Han's stomach in large gulps, his stomach acting like a bottomless pit, greedily absorbing the blood.

After the ravenous feast, the bloody Origin Energy swirling around Chu Han seemed to ignite, emitting astonishing heat.
