Chapter 167: Green-Eyed Venomous Python! Killed with One Punch!
Chapter 167: Green-Eyed Venomous Python! Killed with One Punch!
Xiao Ze didn't know that something so important had happened at Jia Nan Academy.
Medusa's early evolution was due to his influence, which he could understand.
But it never occurred to him that the Fallen Heart Flame would break the seal ahead of time.
After all, the Fallen Heart Flame needs time to accumulate energy.
That enormous amount of energy cannot be generated out of thin air.
However, Xiao Ze had frantically absorbed the energy of the Fallen Heart Flame.
This made it feel a crisis, and even though the energy was insufficient, it still forced the seal to break.
This also caused the Fallen Heart Flame to have insufficient power afterward.
It only broke one seal.
Facing the thousand-layer formation of the elders, it struggled but couldn't escape.
If it weren't for Han Feng and the experts from the Black-Corner Region coming to fight for the Fallen Heart Flame,
The Fallen Heart Flame would likely have been suppressed again at the base of the Qi Refining Tower by the Great Elder and the others.
At this moment, Xiao Ze was worried about one thing: he didn't have enough high-level magic cores.
Recently, he had been frequently refining high-level pills, which significantly increased the consumption of high-level magic cores.
The many high-level magic cores he had accumulated before could not withstand such consumption.
"The Snake-People Empire's stock can last for a while, but it's not a long-term solution."
Xiao Ze paced back and forth in the room, considering whether to go hunting in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
Medusa entered and saw Xiao Ze frowning, looking worried, so she asked,
"Is there something troubling you, Senior Xiao Ze?"
Xiao Ze looked at Medusa. After spending some time together,
Medusa seemed to regard him as an experienced cultivator.
She called him 'Senior' very naturally, without any reluctance.
Although he didn't know why Medusa thought so, Xiao Ze didn't bother to correct her.
"I don't have many high-level magic cores."
"Are you worried about resources, Senior?" Medusa frowned and thought for a moment, "The other snake-people tribes don't have high-level magic cores stored either."
"If worse comes to worst, I can go hunt some magical beasts for you?"
Medusa's diligent attitude pleased Xiao Ze.
Of course, Medusa was so willing to help because she needed something from him.
"Are there any places near the Tagore Desert where many magical beasts gather?"
"Yes, the Tagore Desert borders several empires, and the places where magical beasts gather in those empires are close to the desert, like the Magical Beast Mountain Range of the Jia Ma Empire and the Ten Thousand Venomous Peaks of the Chu Yun Empire."
Medusa, who lived in the Tagore Desert, was well aware of the surroundings and quickly described them to Xiao Ze.
"Which one is the closest?"
"The Ten Thousand Venomous Peaks of the Chu Yun Empire."
Medusa replied without hesitation.
"Alright, I'll go to the Ten Thousand Venomous Peaks to get some high-level magic cores."
Xiao Ze immediately got up, planning to go to the Ten Thousand Venomous Peaks.
"Senior Xiao Ze, I will go with you. The Ten Thousand Venomous Peaks have many venomous magical beasts. If I go with you, we can avoid many problems."
Medusa's words made Xiao Ze look at her.
That's true, the last time he used the Poison of Calamity to defeat Medusa, he didn't specifically mention that it was due to the poison.
Medusa probably wouldn't think that, as an expert in snake venom, she would be poisoned.
"Alright, I would appreciate your help, Queen Medusa."
"Senior, it's to ensure that your pills are refined smoothly."
"Uh... I didn't mention that these high-level magic cores are not for refining the Supreme Pill and the Breaking Pill."
Xiao Ze's words made Medusa's smile freeze... She had been too attentive.
Medusa had assumed that those high-level magic cores were for refining her pills, but she was wrong.
Seeing Medusa frozen, Xiao Ze asked,
"Queen Medusa, do you still want to come?"
Medusa clenched her fists and said in a low voice, "Yes."
The two of them flew toward the Ten Thousand Venomous Peaks, on the border between the Chu Yun Empire and the Tagore Desert.
Thanks to Medusa's explanation, Xiao Ze understood the situation of the Ten Thousand Venomous Peaks.
"We need to be especially careful of a peak-level six magical beast, the Green-Eyed Venomous Python."
Medusa said solemnly, "That beast is as strong as I am, and because it's closer to the heart of the desert, it often comes to harass the Snake-People Temple."
"So, if we take it out, we solve a problem for the snake-people?"
"Senior Xiao Ze, you won't be afraid of a peak-level six magical beast, right?"
Medusa smiled softly, "Moreover, by eliminating the Green-Eyed Venomous Python, the strong of the Snake-People Clan can enter the Ten Thousand Venomous Peaks to collect treasures."
"This would be very beneficial for you."
Xiao Ze thought about it and it made sense, as the future benefits of the Snake-People Clan were related to him.
The two left the hot desert and entered a mountain range.
Soon, Xiao Ze and Medusa arrived at a dangerous mountain, with twisted, sinister-looking trees.
On the side of the mountain was a cave several meters wide, with a faint poisonous gas coming from the entrance.
"This looks like a dangerous place," Xiao Ze said as he looked at the entrance.
He wasn't very interested in the poisonous gas at the entrance.
Although his Disaster Poison Body could absorb poisons, it couldn't absorb just any poison.
In his growth, he had relied on Xiao Yi Xian's Poison of Calamity.
"Yes, this is the lair of the Green-Eyed Venomous Python."
As they talked, a sound of slithering came from inside the cave.
Soon, a large snake head emerged from the dark cave, with green eyes shining with deadly and dangerous light.
Seeing Medusa, the snake's green eyes quickly filled with lust.
Medusa showed a look of disdain at that gaze.
Xiao Ze understood that Medusa hadn't been able to deal with the Green-Eyed Venomous Python.
Otherwise, with Medusa's widespread reputation, she wouldn't have left such a beast alive.
"Queen Medusa, have you changed your mind?"
The Green-Eyed Venomous Python spoke, its voice full of joy.
Medusa smiled with contempt, "Yes, I have changed my mind. Today I come to... take your life!"
Before Medusa could finish speaking, Xiao Ze was already in front of the Green-Eyed Venomous Python.
The Three-Flower Snake Eyes suppressed it instantly!
The Green-Eyed Venomous Python, which was trying to dodge, froze, unable to move.
Xiao Ze had no intention of talking to a dying beast.
He punched it in the head!
Crack!
Lightning flashed and blood flew.
Medusa even smelled the scent of burnt flesh.
Seeing the Green-Eyed Venomous Python dead, Medusa was shocked.
Xiao Ze's strength had grown too fast.
A single strike to kill a peak-level six magical beast?
Medusa was glad she hadn't tried to fight Xiao Ze before.
"Queen Medusa, come down and help me process this, we need to head to the next magical beast lair."
Xiao Ze called Medusa to help.
After all, high-level magical beasts were valuable, not just their cores.
