54: Trial Altar

“Puff! Puff!”

Azure Origin Sword Light struck the Bloodlight Python’s head.

It carved out two long bloodlines.

Blood gushed out.

“Roar!”

Its head was struck.

The Bloodlight Python let out an angry roar.

Its attacks became even more reckless.

Its mouth opened.

A large ball of pitch-black Poison Mist spewed out.

Its target, however, was not the Little Lizard it was entangled with.

But Mu Feng in the distance!

Although the Bloodlight Python was confused, it still knew who the true enemy was.

It directly tried to capture the king first.

“Whoosh!”

Mu Feng, who already knew about the Poison Mist skill, didn't give it this chance at all.

The moment the Poison Mist emerged,

He had already activated his Cloud Stepping Boots and dodged far away.

This stuff could even corrode Magical Artifacts.

He didn't dare to be overconfident.

“Hiss~”

Mu Feng escaped far away.

But the Bloodlight Python didn't intend to let him go.

Its snake head turned, and the Poison Mist actually chased after him, spewing.

“Hmph!”

“You’re truly seeking death!”

A sneer appeared on Mu Feng’s lips.

The opponent truly didn't treat the Puppet Lizard as a being!

It dared to chase him and spray like this!

He exerted force with his feet.

Quickly dodging the Poison Mist's attack.

At the same time, he ordered the Little Lizard to attack with full force!

“Boom!!”

The Little Lizard leaped high.

Using the sharpest horn on its head, it fiercely slammed into the Bloodlight Python's abdomen.

With a boom.

The ten-meter-long Bloodlight Python was actually sent flying by the one-meter-plus Little Lizard!

After upgrading, although the Little Lizard’s body became smaller,

Its explosive power remained unchanged.

It was even stronger and more flexible!

This ramming skill, when unleashed, directly created a soccer-ball-sized round hole in the Bloodlight Python's belly!

Its abdomen was struck.

The Bloodlight Python rolled around in pain.

“Well done!”

Seeing the Little Lizard succeed,

Mu Feng stopped running.

He exerted force with both hands simultaneously.

And added two more sword lights to the Bloodlight Python.

“Die for me!”

The sword lights fiercely drilled into the Bloodlight Python's body through its injured abdomen.

Destroying its internal organs.

At this point,

The Bloodlight Python could no longer hold on.

After a few twitches,

It completely quieted down.

Having killed the Bloodlight Python,

Mu Feng, however, didn't show much joy.

Because he knew.

Besides the Bloodlight Python here,

There was another, even more powerful entity present!

Boom!

The moment the Bloodlight Python fell,

The entire altar began to shake.

The stone pillars nearby glowed.

It's coming!

Mu Feng's heart tightened.

He quickly called the Little Lizard to his side.

As soon as they met,

Mu Feng felt his vision brighten.

Then the scene rapidly receded.

By the time he reacted, he had already been teleported inside the altar.

【System Reminder: You have entered the Trial Altar. Defeat the guardian Yao Beast inside to pass the trial!】

A red prompt appeared in Mu Feng's eyes.

“Trial Altar?”

“What is this?”

Mu Feng was a bit confused.

However, the red prompt did not reappear.

At the same time,

The altar began to glow.

Soon, a familiar figure appeared before Mu Feng.

It was precisely the Bloodlight Python he had just killed!

No, this Bloodlight Python was quite a bit larger than the one he had just killed.

Its head also had a protruding horn, unlike the previous Bloodlight Python.

Mu Feng quickly concentrated and swept his Divine Sense over it.

【Name: Blood Python Jiao】

【Realm: Peak of Qi Condensation Thirteenth Layer】

【Description: Formed from the Bloodlight Python's shedding, it possesses sharper teeth and more astonishing biting force. Additionally, the horn grown on its head has allowed it to learn new innate skills.】

【Skills】: Bite, Poison Mist, Mental Control】

...

Checking skill details.

【Bite: The Bloodlight Python’s biting force is astonishing; it can crush anything.】

【Poison Mist: The Bloodlight Python can spit highly toxic mist. Contact is fatal. It has a corrosive effect on Magical Artifacts. Absolutely do not use Magical Artifacts to block it, or you will lose both life and property.】

【Mental Control: The Blood Python Jiao's horn can emit light that controls the mind. Those caught in it will be confused and controlled by it, thus becoming monsters that only know slaughter. The stronger one's Divine Sense, the shorter the duration of confusion.】

“A Peak Qi Condensation Thirteenth Layer Yao Beast.”

“And it’s also the most difficult type of Yao Beast to deal with: a Jiao.”

“Isn’t this a rip-off?”

Mu Feng had a bitter smile on his face.

Snakes achieve Major Achievement to become Jiao, and Jiao achieve Major Achievement to become Dragons.

This altar trial is truly difficult!

No wonder the System kept emphasizing that he should improve his combat power.

“Roar!”

Mu Feng had just finished reading the Blood Python Jiao's information.

The Blood Python Jiao had already attacked.

The previous Bloodlight Python was already very fast.

But this Blood Python Jiao's speed was more than twice as fast!

Mu Feng only saw an afterimage.

The Blood Python Jiao had already reached him.

Dodging again was no longer possible.

Fortunately, when he came in, he had already prepared for battle.

The Qingming Bell had always been in a defensive state.

“Boom!”

The Blood Python Jiao collided with the Qingming Bell, letting out a deafening roar.

“Crack!”

The Blood Python Jiao's attack was very strong.

Under its impact,

The Qingming Bell began to vibrate violently.

Cracks appeared at its top.

Looking like it could break apart at any moment.

Mu Feng's expression was grave.

Since he obtained the Qingming Bell, it had always been invincible when used against enemies.

It was the most useful Magical Artifact he possessed.

But now, it seemed this Magical Artifact might not last.

One attack failed.

The Blood Python Jiao's phantom flickered.

And it charged towards the Qingming Bell again.

“Boom!”

“Crack!”

The cracks on the Qingming Bell grew larger.

“No, I can't let it attack so recklessly!”

“Otherwise, the Qingming Bell won't be able to withstand many more hits!”

“Little Lizard, hold it back!”

Seeing the Blood Python Jiao's next attack about to come,

Mu Feng decisively told the Little Lizard to hold back the Blood Python Jiao.

At the same time, he began to condense sword lights to assist the Little Lizard in battle.

“Clang, clang, clang!”

The Azure Origin Sword Light shot onto the Blood Python Jiao's body, but they were all blocked by its scales.

After transforming into a Blood Python Jiao,

Its scales were harder and thicker; the Azure Origin Sword Light simply couldn't pose a threat to it!

“Boom!”

On the other side, the Little Lizard had already been sent flying by the Blood Python Jiao.

Fortunately, the Puppet Lizard's physical quality was also not bad.

With just a roll, it quickly got up.

However, in that brief moment, the Blood Python Jiao had already distanced itself from it and charged towards Mu Feng again!

Its speed was very fast.

Mu Feng didn't dare to be overconfident and use his Cloud Stepping Boots to evade.

He could only continue to summon the Qingming Bell to block.

“Crack!”

Within a short minute, the Qingming Bell suffered three consecutive impacts and finally could no longer hold on.

It split into several pieces.

Thus, the Qingming Bell, which had accompanied him for dozens of chapters, was completely scrapped.

“Roar!”

With the Qingming Bell scrapped,

The Blood Python Jiao continued to charge towards Mu Feng.

Fortunately, Mu Feng had already used his Cloud Stepping Boots to flash away when the Qingming Bell broke.

At the same time, he threw two sword lights towards its head.

“Clang, clang, clang!”

Although this time the sword lights still couldn't break through the Blood Python Jiao's scale defense,

Under such close-range impact,

The Blood Python Jiao also felt uncomfortable.

“Roar!”

The Blood Python Jiao roared in pain.

It shook its head.

And emitted a purple light from its horn, shooting towards Mu Feng.

It was its innate ultimate skill.

Mental Control!

Whoosh!

Mu Feng naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to take this skill head-on.

He quickly activated his Cloud Stepping Boots to evade.

“Slash!”

At the same time, taking advantage of the opponent's attack interval,

He threw out several more sword lights to attack its head.

Unfortunately, this time there was no Qingming Bell to block.

The sword lights were quickly dodged by the Blood Python Jiao.

Hitting the stone pillars of the altar, leaving deep marks.

“It's really hard to deal with. It seems I can only use that move!”

“If that still doesn't work, I'll just have to run!”

This Blood Python Jiao was too far superior to him in defense, speed, and attack.

Ordinary methods could no longer cause it harm.

To win, he could only unleash his trump card!
