I Have Five Senior Brothers - Chapter 21
Chapter 21: Kill The Black Cloud Python
Mu Chen, who was leaning against the tree, stopped his lazy posture. His body swayed and he stood in front of the two of them the next moment.
Gu Qingqing turned her head and saw a black python appearing where she had picked the seven hearts flower. The python was about ten meters long and its body was very thick. It was looking up and its lantern-sized vertical eyes were staring at Gu Qingqing and the other two. Its mouth was slightly open, and one could vaguely see the sharp teeth inside. Saliva fell onto the ground and the flower on the ground was immediately corroded. It was obviously a poisonous python.
“Hiss!”
Gu Qingqing took a deep breath. Thinking about how she had almost been eaten by the poisonous python, she could not help but feel a lingering fear.
“Tsk tsk, Black Cloud python. I didn’t expect our luck to be so good to actually meet a Black Cloud python. I happen to have some use for this snake’s guts.” Seeing the Black Cloud python, the usually weak Mu Chen’s eyes instantly lit up. Coupled with his pale face, he looked a little strange.
Jun Wu was right beside Mu Chen. After seeing Mu Chen’s expression, he could not help but pull Gu Qingqing back a little.
At this moment, Mu Chen only had eyes for the Black Cloud Python and did not notice Jun Wu’s expression. He only stretched out his hand and grabbed, and a long metal spear appeared in his hand.
The spear was about two meters long and its entire body was dark red. There were complicated arrays carved on it, and the spearhead flashed with a cold light. It was Mu Chen’s weapon — the immortal weapon, Red Flame Spear!
“Qingqing and Jun Wu, the two of you go to the side and protect yourselves.” He turned around and instructed Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu. With a wave of his hand, he pushed the two of them more than ten meters away. Then, he turned around and faced the Black Cloud python.
Jun Wu supported Gu Qingqing to stand steadily and shielded her behind him. After thinking for a moment, he took out an array disk from his interspatial ring and threw four high-grade spirit stones into it. He threw the array disk into the air, and the array disk was activated, hanging above the two of them. Immediately after, a transparent light barrier appeared around the two of them, enveloping them within.
Mu Chen used his spiritual sense to scan this scene and a hint of a smile flashed across his eyes. When he looked at the Black Cloud Python, it turned into a strong battle intent.
At the level of the Black Cloud Python, it already possessed some intelligence. After Gu Qingqing dodged it, it did not attack immediately but carefully observed Mu Chen and the others. When it saw Mu Chen take out his weapon, it was completely enraged and let out a hiss. It opened its mouth wide and charged at Mu Chen.
“Good timing!” The long spear spun in Mu Chen’s hand. His body was filled with fighting spirit. The Black Cloud Python’s attack made him even more excited. Even his eyes were slightly red.
He stomped on the ground and charged at the Black Cloud python like an arrow that had left the bow.
Because he was too fast, his figure disappeared immediately, causing the Black Cloud Python to lose its target.
“Sea of Flames!”
As his voice rang out, he appeared above the head of the Black Cloud Python. He thrust the Scarlet Flame Spear forward, and a red sea of flames suddenly appeared behind him. A wild wolf suddenly rose from the surface of the sea and charged towards the Black Cloud python.
The Black Cloud Python’s body was too huge. It felt the threat of the fire wave to it. It wanted to dodge, but it was unable to do so and was swept onto its back by the fire wave.
In an instant, the air was filled with the smell of roasted meat. The Black Cloud Python screamed in pain and rolled its body, trying to extinguish the fire on its back. The big tree beside it was broken by it and the flowers and plants on the ground were crushed.
“Red Flame Cage!” Mu Chen did not give the Black Cloud python a chance to react. He had not fought for a long time. In Hidden Spirit Mountain, only Si Lin would fight with him. However, he could not beat Si Lin, so he could only be tortured. Now that he could finally move his muscles and bones, he naturally had to move them properly.
The red sea of fire changed with Mu Chen’s words and turned into a circle, trapping the Black Cloud python inside.
The Black Cloud Python already felt that Mu Chen was different from the cultivators it usually met. The injury on its back made it very painful. It really wanted to take revenge, but it knew that if it did not escape, it might even lose its life. Therefore, it did not care how scary the fire looked; it still wanted to get out.
Of course, Mu Chen’s Red Flame Cage was not as simple as it looked. When the Black Cloud Python touched the ring of fire, the flames suddenly soared. Like a cage, it trapped the Black Cloud Python. This time, the Black Cloud Python was injured on the top of its head; it directly rolled in the sea of fire.
“Red Flame Three Strikes!”
Mu Chen shouted again and the Red Flame Spear quickly moved in his hand. He directly rushed into the flame cage. The flames did not harm him. He struck the Black Cloud Python’s body three times in a row.
When he landed on the ground, the flame cage suddenly disappeared. Before the Black Cloud Python could be happy, it felt that its body did not belong to it anymore. It could not even let out its final roar and completely lost its breath.
This one-sided battle lasted for a short time. In less than 15 minutes, the Black Cloud Python had already turned into a corpse.
On its back, there were three wounds that were more than a meter wide. One could see the bloody flesh inside.
Of course, the most important wound was the one on its head. That was the fatal blow that it had received!
“Oh, it’s been too long since I last acted. I didn’t grasp it well!” Looking at the Black Cloud Python’s corpse, Mu Chen scratched his head. He looked at Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu who were walking over and said in embarrassment.
If it wasn’t for the Red Flame Spear in his hand and the corpse of the Black Cloud Python not far away, perhaps no one would associate this pale-faced person who looked like a sickly person with the battle maniac from before.
Jun Wu’s lips twitched. He felt that his understanding of the people of the Hidden Spirit Mountain had been refreshed once again.
Gu Qingqing walked over to Mu Chen’s side and tugged at his sleeve. After he lowered his body, she gave him a thumbs up. Mu Chen immediately revealed a shy smile and rubbed her head.
Mu Chen used a special method to take the Black Cloud Python’s gall and collected some of its blood and scales. Then, he no longer cared about the Black Cloud Python’s corpse.
“Alright, Qingqing, you can go and pick the Seven Hearts Flower now.” After finishing his work, Mu Chen found a big tree and sat down. He gestured to Gu Qingqing.
She nodded and began to search for the Seven Hearts Flower again.
Very soon, Gu Qingqing found some. She picked them up carefully and put them into the jade box that she had prepared. Only then did she let out a long breath and look at Mu Chen.
Mu Chen gave her a thumbs up just like Gu Qingqing did. She immediately revealed a brilliant smile.
The purpose of this trip had been achieved. Mu Chen summoned the crane and prepared to bring Gu Qingqing and Jun Wuhui to the Hidden Spirit Mountain.
The Immortal Crane did not fly too high. Mu Chen wanted Gu Qingqing to be able to see clearly what was inside the mountains. In the end, Gu Qingqing’s eyes were sharp, and she actually found an acquaintance below. It was Zhuo Tingqiu, whom she had met once in Qingfeng City!
Gu Qingqing pulled on Mu Chen’s sleeve and Mu Chen immediately looked over.
“What’s wrong, Qingqing?”
Gu Qing pointed at the people below.
“Qingqing knows someone down there?” Mu Chen was a little surprised. They were very clear about Gu Qingqing’s experience before she came to Hidden Spirit Mountain. He did not expect Gu Qingqing to know someone in the mountains.
Gu Qingqing saw that Zhuo Tingqiu was not in a good condition, so she quickly motioned for Mu Chen to go down and help him.
It was rare for Gu Qingqing to have a request, so Mu Chen naturally would not refuse. He patted the crane, and the crane brought them to where Zhuo Tingqiu was.
