Chapter 475 - 472 Canyon
Gao Fei gave a wry smile, "I don't want to take risks either, but the key issue is that the formidable enemies behind us are chasing too fast. I simply can't shake them off. Give it enough time, and they'll definitely catch up to me. Instead of being passive, I might as well fight desperately. Who knows, it might have an unexpected effect."
"Fine, if you're set on doing this, I won't stop you," the old man from the Bronze Coffin sighed. "There's something I've been holding back for a long time, wanting to say, but just felt embarrassed to mention."
Gao Fei blinked and asked curiously, "What is it?"
"You really are a troublemaker," said the old man from the Bronze Coffin resentfully.
"…" Gao Fei was speechless.
Thinking about it carefully, the old man from the Bronze Coffin was not wrong; Gao Fei really was a troublemaker and always got into serious trouble.
As Gao Fei talked with the old man from the Bronze Coffin, he walked forward. After covering dozens of miles, an abyss appeared in front of them, with white mist shrouding the entrance like a barrier, sealing the entrance to the gorge. Once Gao Fei activated his Clairvoyance, the white fog at the mouth of the gorge began to thin... and then Gao Fei could see the situation inside the gorge...
"Hiss..." Gao Fei took a sharp breath, "Is that a python...? It's huge..." Coiled within the gorge was a colossal python, preposterously large. By Gao Fei's estimate, it was at least several hundred yards long; he had never seen a python of such size before.
How many years must it have lived to grow so large?
The giant python had its eyes closed, its mouth opening and closing, emitting faint snoring sounds. Clearly, the giant python was asleep.
"Senior, can you sense how strong the python is?" Gao Fei asked.
"At least it has the strength of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage Peak," the old man from the Bronze Coffin answered. "This python is very dangerous. You better think this through. Once it's disturbed, the consequences are unimaginable."
"Senior, the python shouldn't be able to destroy the Bronze Coffin, right?"
"That... probably not..."
"Then we have a plan! I'll hide inside the Bronze Coffin, and then Senior, you control the flight of the Bronze Coffin towards the python."
"But I must warn you, although the python can't destroy the Bronze Coffin, it has the power to trap it. Then you'll be in trouble just the same."
"I understand..." Gao Fei's expression suddenly changed, "Not good! They've caught up!" While speaking, Gao Fei took out the Bronze Coffin, "Senior, quickly open the lid."
"Click!"
The heavy lid of the coffin opened slowly, and Gao Fei jumped in quickly, "Senior, hurry! To the gorge!"
The Bronze Coffin soared into the sky and flew towards the gorge opposite. "Pfft!" The Bronze Coffin pierced through the mist and entered the gorge. At the same time, the giant python lying on the ground opened its eyes—a flash of ferocity flickered within—and roared in fury at the intrusion into its territory, as it lunged with its enormous mouth at the Bronze Coffin.
"Crack!"
The sharp teeth struck the Bronze Coffin with a hair-raising sound.
The python felt as if its teeth were about to break, and the intense pain agitated its nerves. It had lived for thousands of years and never suffered such a setback. "Thump!" The python shook the Bronze Coffin off, then raised its tail and whipped it over—so fast that the Bronze Coffin could not evade in time.
"Boom!!!"
The Bronze Coffin was struck squarely by the huge tail and tumbled out, smashing several boulders before crashing heavily to the ground.
"Swoosh!"
The python darted over, coiling its vast body around the Bronze Coffin before slowly constricting, attempting to crush it with its formidable strength.
...
Outside the gorge.
Xiahou Wei and the others stood in an open area, casting vigilant glances toward the gorge ahead.
"Did you all hear that?" Xiahou Wei said in a deep voice, "Sounds of roaring are coming from the gorge. It sounds like... the roar of some kind of animal."
"The entrance is covered with white fog; we can't see clearly what's inside."
These people didn't have Clairvoyance, so they couldn't penetrate the white fog to see the situation inside the gorge.
"I saw it clearly just now, that Bronze Coffin rushed into the gorge," Du Yue said.
"What's there to hesitate about? Let's hurry in. Even if there are dangers inside the valley, with our strength, we can definitely handle them."
"Let's hurry in, or the Bronze Coffin will be gone without a trace."
"If anyone is scared, just stay outside."
Everyone was very anxious.
"Be careful when we go in! Don't do anything rash before we've figured out the situation." Xiahou Wei instructed before leading everyone towards the valley. As they approached the mist, everyone held their breath and released their True Qi to protect their bodies.
It didn't take long for everyone to pass through the mist.
"Hiss! Such a huge python!"
"Has this one turned into a spirit?"
"So, the roar we heard just now was from this giant python."
"The Bronze Coffin is entangled by the giant python."
"Take the Bronze Coffin!"
"Be careful, everyone. This giant python is very strong."
...
Xiahou Wei and the others were stunned by the giant python's massive body.
"ROAR!!!"
The giant python became even angrier when it saw more people intruding into its territory. It coiled its lower body around the Bronze Coffin, then used its upper body to attack Xiahou Wei and the others. The giant python's body was so large that its movements were like thunder and rain, its might terrifying.
"Everyone, let's attack together!" Xiahou Wei charged forward first.
Linghu Wuheng and the others spread out, forming a surrounding circle against the giant python.
"Crackle and snap!"
"Bang, bang, boom!"
"BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!!!"
During the battle, the giant python was at a disadvantage, suffering several wounds, from which blood gushed out.
"Bang!"
The giant python flung the Bronze Coffin aside, then moved its massive body and opened its gaping jaw to bite at Xiahou Wei and the others. After discarding the Bronze Coffin, the python's speed increased significantly. Its attacks were simple: open its mouth to bite, use its tail to whip, followed by crushing with its massive body... The moves were simple, but their power was immense.
Once the giant python unleashed its fury, Xiahou Wei and the others started to struggle in their defense.
"Whoosh!" The Bronze Coffin, which had rolled to the side, suddenly shot up and turned into a streak of light, speeding away.
"Oh no! The Bronze Coffin is getting away!"
"Chase it!"
Xiahou Wei and the others wanted to pursue the Bronze Coffin, but they were blocked by the giant python, which nearly drove them to frustration.
In reality, the giant python didn't intend to help the Bronze Coffin; it was simply resentful of Xiahou Wei and the others for injuring it, so it relentlessly attacked them.
"Everyone, put more effort into it. Let's kill this giant python quickly and then chase after the Bronze Coffin!" Xiahou Wei shouted urgently.
"KILL!!!"
Xiahou Wei and the others brought out their most powerful Treasures and performed their most ruthless moves, launching a barrage of attacks on the giant python.
