Thunderclap Venom Xun Python

Thunderclap Venom Xun Python—Screech!

In the pitch-black depths underground, a spatial rift several meters wide suddenly appeared.

Immediately after...

Lu Yun leaped down. After landing, he pulled out a compass and flashlight from his robes. Once he found the right direction, he sprinted forward at full speed.

About seven or eight minutes passed.

Only then did he see an enormous palace before him. The entire palace was black and white, its walls covered in carvings.

Lu Yun raised his head and looked toward the top of the palace.

An incomparably massive pearl floated in the air. Judging by its luster, it was an exceptionally rare piece of obsidian!

Obsidian was one of the materials needed for refining pills.

Such a treasure could truly be called a priceless rarity!

Yet as Lu Yun looked at the obsidian, a trace of surprise filled his heart.

"Master once said that, in order to resist the foreign fiends, many local cultivators had retreated into this underground palace. Among them were quite a few alchemists.

"It seemed this high-quality obsidian had been left behind by one of those alchemists."

At that moment, the Thunderclap Venom Xun Python stirred up waves of disturbance once more. Since this place was closer to that beast's location, Lu Yun's senses were especially sharp.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately raced in the direction from which the disturbance came.

After traveling roughly a hundred li, Lu Yun saw many human cultivators' corpses ahead.

Because the underground temperature was extremely low, and because these people had been protected by spiritual energy while alive, they still looked lifelike even after so many years.

Every face was frozen in terror, as though they had encountered some great crisis at the time.

"It is very likely that foreign fiends or demonic beasts rushed in back then," Lu Yun thought. However, he did not go over to inspect them closely. The disturbance caused by the Thunderclap Venom Xun Python was growing stronger and stronger, and the urgent task was to hurry over and reinforce the weakening confinement.

"Many of the human cultivators from Master's era were Nirvana Realm experts. If any of them had survived until this age of spiritual energy's resurgence, what unparalleled brilliance they would have achieved!"

"What a pity!"

Before leaving, Lu Yun looked back once more, his heart filled with emotion.

Then, he continued rushing toward the location he had sensed earlier.

Not long after.

His view suddenly opened up. A gigantic black gate appeared before him, hundreds of zhang tall and roughly ten zhang wide.

This should have been the core of the underground abyss—the very bottom of the Unfixed Pagoda Qing Yuanzi had mentioned.

Looking in from outside, he could see an enormous cavern within. Its surroundings were entirely covered in dark walls, making it resemble a colossal valley.

"Is this where the Unfixed Pagoda suppresses demonic beasts?"

Standing atop a massive boulder, Lu Yun raised his head and looked upward, but could not see the end at a glance.

"It seems that beast is here!"

Lu Yun narrowed his eyes slightly.

Beneath his feet, he once again sensed waves of energy fluctuations.

"Judging from the direction of those fluctuations, the Thunderclap Venom Xun Python should not be far from here."

Lu Yun paused only briefly before suddenly launching himself forward, diving straight toward that pitch-black cavern.

Boom!

With a deafening crash, a pale green barrier suddenly emerged at the cavern entrance, blocking Lu Yun's path.

Lu Yun raised an eyebrow and thought, Have I reached it already?

"Who are you?!"

As Lu Yun pondered these questions, an angry roar rang out beside his ears.

Looking up, Lu Yun saw countless enormous black chains behind the barrier. The other ends of those chains were wrapped around the body of a massive black monster.

The monster crawled along the ground, constantly writhing. From head to tail, it was at least twenty or thirty zhang long. Its skin was emerald green, and its entire body exuded an incomparably dense Killing Intent.

Its eyes were as large as washbasins, faint green light spilling from them whenever they opened and closed. Sharp fangs lined its mouth, especially the two sword-like teeth several meters long. Foul drool dripped everywhere, making it look utterly ferocious.

Across its back, thick chains like steel whips bound it tightly in place, layer upon layer.

"Thunderclap Venom Xun Python!!!"

Lu Yun's face instantly darkened. His pupils contracted into needlepoints as he stared fixedly at the monster before him.

From the monster's body, Lu Yun clearly smelled a rancid stench that made his skin crawl, enough to make anyone want to vomit.

Seeing a stranger approach, the Thunderclap Venom Xun Python immediately let out a hiss.

Its body trembled slightly, and two clumps of green light burst from its eyes as it glared fiercely at Lu Yun.

Clatter, clatter, clatter~!

At that moment, the chains binding the Thunderclap Venom Xun Python suddenly erupted with violent tremors.

Amid crisp cracking sounds, one chain around its waist began to crack again and again.

Then, it abruptly shattered section by section.

The Thunderclap Venom Xun Python, which had been firmly pinned to the ground, took the opportunity to struggle madly. In an instant, dust filled the entire ground.

"No!"

"Judging from the current situation..."

"I'm afraid it will not be long before this beast breaks even more chains. By then, the situation will only become even more troublesome."

Seeing that things were going badly, Lu Feng quickly formed hand seals with both hands. Using the method Qing Yuanzi had taught him before, he instantly broke through the invisible barrier separating him from the Thunderclap Venom Xun Python and stepped inside.

He knew it.

The best course of action now was to find a way to trap the Thunderclap Venom Xun Python before him. Naturally, he also needed to use this opportunity to improve his own strength.

"Foolish human, you actually dared to come here and court death!"

"Do you really think that with your mere Early Nirvana Realm strength, you can trap me?"

"I have already recovered twenty to thirty percent of my cultivation. I only need to break several more chains—then even if Void Transformation Realm cultivators come, they will not be able to change anything!"

Between its roars, the monster actually spoke human words and began threatening Lu Yun.

"Is that so?"

Lu Yun snorted coldly, and a towering Killing Intent suddenly erupted from his body.

His figure abruptly vanished. When he reappeared, he was already behind the Thunderclap Venom Xun Python's tail.

Boom!

Just as his fist was about to strike that serpent tail, an exceptionally violent aura suddenly swept out and directly blasted his body away.

"Hm? This power? It actually possesses such terrifying momentum!"

Lu Yun was slightly startled, strange light flickering in his eyes.

This monster clearly possessed strength comparable to the peak of the Nirvana Realm. No wonder Qing Yuanzi had called it Sky Net Star's number one ferocious beast.

Although it was bound by chains and could only wield twenty to thirty percent of its strength, it was already terrifying enough.

Lu Yun could not imagine...

If it truly broke free of its seal completely, how terrifying would it become then?
