Chapter 264: Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python!

Chapter 264: Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python!

The following morning arrived.

Feng Mo and Yang Jun retraced their steps and headed back to the activity area for yellow-tier students.

Meanwhile, Ling Feng ventured alone into the activity area for sky-tier students.

His objective remained unchanged: to hunt fifth-tier demonic beasts.

Fifth-tier demonic beasts were equivalent to experts at the Spiritual Element Realm level.

Facing them head-on, Ling Feng naturally wasn't a match. However, with the two killer moves of the Heaven-Slaying Sword Art and Zifeng's ability to plunder life essence, he might have had a fighting chance.

As long as he could manage to obtain a demonic core from slaying a fifth-tier demonic beast, it would guarantee him a spot in the top-ten.

After about half a day of travel, Zifeng finally appeared with a flash of purple light, hopping onto Ling Feng's shoulder in a few swift movements.

"Master!"

Zifeng stretched lazily, their pocket-sized frame and youthful face making it irresistibly cute with every movement.

"You've been asleep for a whole month. If I hadn't called you, would you have just slept through it all?"

Ling Feng couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.

"Well, sleeping is what we elemental life forms do best," Zifeng's adorable face wrinkled slightly. "You see, as elemental life forms, we can continuously grow stronger just by sleeping. It's something other races can only envy."

"Heh..."

Ling Feng rolled his eyes. It wasn't surprising that Wen Tingguang mentioned the Earth-Fire Flame Demon had slept for at least eight hundred years; apparently, such creatures could grow stronger just by sleeping.

It was truly enviable!

"Let's focus on something serious!" Ling Feng raised an eyebrow, explaining his plan to Zifeng.

His plan was simple: if his Heaven-Slaying Sword Art could leave a wound on the body of a fifth-tier demonic beast, Zifeng could exploit its ability to absorb life essence to rapidly age the beast.

When Zifeng drained the life force of the demonic beast, seizing its demonic core would be an easy task.

"I see," Zifeng clapped eagerly. "Another feast awaits me."

Ling Feng couldn't help but feel a bit envious. Despite humans considering themselves the most intelligent beings, in many aspects, their innate abilities were far inferior to those of other races.

Half a day later.

Ling Feng and Zifeng arrived at a canyon blocked by dense forests.

Next, Ling Feng suppressed his aura and stealthily approached the two humans lurking in the shadows.

"Hehe, sorry about this!"

Ling Feng thought to himself as he picked up a small stone and, with precise aim, shot it towards the two humans.

The two sky-tier students, cautiously attempting to evade the detection of the fifth-tier demonic beast, were suddenly attacked. Startled, they panicked, believing they had been discovered by other demonic beasts.

Zheng!

In an instant, they drew their swords, releasing powerful auras.

And then...

It was evident without further thought that their auras immediately alerted the fifth-tier demonic beast guarding the vicinity of the nest.

"Roar!"

A thunderous roar erupted. The fifth-tier demonic beast let its presence be known with its formidable aura spread rapidly from its core.

"Crap!"

"Damn it!"

The two sky-tier students paled in terror at the sight.

A fifth-tier demonic beast!

Although they had the nerve to sneak in and try to take advantage of it, they certainly didn't have the courage to face the fifth-tier demonic beast head-on!

However, time didn't allow them to ponder further. Sensing the intrusion of two powerful auras into its territory, the fifth-tier demonic beast, a Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python, roared and lunged at the two sky-tier students like lightning.

"Quick! Run!"

Terrified to their core, the two sky-tier students wasted no time and immediately bolted away.

The Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python relentlessly pursued, determined to devour the two intruders whole.

Soon, their presence faded from Ling Feng's perception, indicating they had distanced themselves by about a thousand zhang.

"Heh, thanks a lot!"

Ling Feng emerged from beneath the vines, brushing off the dirt from his clothes with a smile on his lips.

The celestial fruit within the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python's lair would definitely be his!
