Chapter 7: Fierce Battle with the Dark Brown Giant Python

  "Be careful!"

  Mu Feng Meng pushed open Yang Zhan and swung the torch heavily at the dark brown python's seven-inch place.

  Clang!

  The seven-inch spot was the weak point of the snake, and Mu Feng's stick had a great deal of power, directly tossing the dark brown python out, while his entire body retreated several steps, and the torch was also broken into two pieces.

  The dark brown giant python was stunned by the stick for a moment, and it took half a day to recover. This stick also thoroughly enraged this huge creature. The thick snake tail swept towards Mufeng's waist like an iron whip, producing a sharp breaking wind sound, if he was hit, Mufeng would probably be crippled even if he didn't die.

  Yang Zhan held the dagger and stabbed it fiercely at the snake's tail. The dagger scraped against the snake scales, producing a piercing metallic sound as sparks flew out continuously.

  The dark brown giant python was in pain, and suddenly retreated backwards. Yang Zhan was also knocked back by the enormous force of the snake's tail, his dagger flying out of his hand and falling into a nearby clump of grass.

  Two young men and a dark brown python are again in a standoff.

  "Mu Feng, what's going on? This beast doesn't seem to plan on letting us go!"

  Mo Feng stared at the dark brown python, his mind racing with various ideas. However, all these plans required sufficient equipment, but now he only had a dagger in hand, and like a clever woman who cannot cook without rice, he could only feel anxious.

  The dark brown giant python had suffered a great loss twice, and its anger was unabated. Its two large snake eyes turned bloodshot, the frequency of contraction and relaxation of its snake body became faster and faster, its head raised extremely high, and two sharp snake teeth were dripping with transparent saliva.

  At this time, the dark brown giant python raised its body, which was actually higher than the two boys. It looked down at them with a pair of scarlet snake eyes that showed a hint of coldness.

  Suddenly, the snake head darted towards Yang Zhan's neck like lightning, and in an instant, Yang Zhan barely dodged to one side. The snake head bit past his ear, and its muscular body simultaneously coiled around him, binding him tightly, and knocked Mu Feng out of the way.

  It all happened extremely quickly, in the blink of an eye. The snake's body coiled tighter and tighter, its massive constricting force causing Yang Zhan's skeleton to creak with a cracking sound. Yang Zhan couldn't even catch his breath, his slightly chubby face turning bright red from suffocation, his face contorted in pain.

  The dark brown giant python turned its head, opening its bloody mouth wide and biting down on Yang Zhan's head. At this time, Mu Feng picked up the torch that Yang Zhan had dropped from the ground and rushed over to stuff it into the dark brown giant python's mouth. The dark brown giant python bit down hard, and instantly sparks flew everywhere, wood chips splashed in all directions, and the torch was bitten to pieces by the dark brown giant python.

  Mufeng took advantage of the situation and pressed down on the dark brown giant python's seven inches with his left hand, while holding a dagger in his right hand and stabbing wildly with all his might. The dark brown giant python was in pain and loosened its grip on Yang Zhan, swinging its tail and sending Mufeng flying out.

  However, this also allowed Yang Zhan to break free from the dark brown python's entanglement and roll over to Mu Feng's side.

  The dark brown giant python pounced again, its entire huge body flying up, a strong gust of wind also hitting the face.

  Mo Feng shifted his body to the side, his right hand sweeping the dagger across the dark brown giant python's neck, producing a string of dazzling sparks and a faintly black bloodline. At the same time, the massive snake body also sent Mo Feng flying out.

  This collision also made Mu Feng dazed and confused, with a splitting headache and blackened eyes.

  That dagger just now didn't cause much harm to the dark brown python, but it had been at a disadvantage for a long time, and the dark brown python was also enraged. Its entire body flashed out like lightning, and in an instant, it flew onto the top of the big tree above Mu Feng's head. The snake tail rolled up, and Yang Zhan was actually wrapped up, ready to strangle him to death in mid-air.

  "Ah, Mu Feng, save me!"

  Yang Zhan was tossed about, unable to move, and shouted as he spun upside down in mid-air several times. In an instant, his face turned red and his ears were flushed, with a thread of fresh blood even seeping from the corner of his mouth. It seemed that the dark brown giant python's constricting force was too great, so much so that Yang Zhan couldn't withstand it either.

  Mo Feng's heart suddenly accelerated, and he fiercely charged towards the large tree. His right foot forcefully kicked against the trunk, using the momentum to flip himself into the air, and his dagger stabbed towards the snake head entwined around the tree.

  The dark brown python's body was too hard, and the dagger could not cause much harm for a while. Now the only weakness might be in the snake's eyes, so Mufeng stabbed at the dark brown python's right eye without hesitation.

  "Hmm"

  The dagger accurately stabbed the snake's eye, and Mu Feng took advantage of the momentum to strangle it, pulling it out together, and the whole person also flew out, heavily falling to the ground.

  The dark brown giant python let out a sharp hiss, released Yang Zhan, and escaped into the forest, disappearing in an instant, leaving behind a trail of bloodstains on the trees and leaves it slid past.

  After repelling the dark brown python, Mu Feng and Yang Zhan lay on the ground in a mess, panting heavily. They didn't expect that one dark brown python would make them so miserable.

  "Good grief, I was scared to death! I thought I was a goner!" Yang Zhan exclaimed breathlessly. If it hadn't been for Mufeng just now, he might have really been strangled to death by the dark brown python.

  "Don't say anymore, it's still early to go back." Murong looked at him and smiled.

  "Who says we can't go? We've already chased away a huge python, what's there to be afraid of?" Yang Zhan said with a serious face as he crawled up.

  "Let's go." Murong Feng also got up and went to the grass thicket to retrieve Yang Zhan's dagger, then made two more torches.

  After climbing for more than two hours, the two young men finally arrived at a cave on the mountain waist without any danger. Although the cave is not high in elevation, it is extremely hidden and difficult for ordinary people to find.

  The cave is about two zhang high and one zhang wide, with a mouth covered in green vines. The leaves on the vines cover the entire entrance, making it extremely difficult to spot from the outside. "Mo Feng" also discovered the existence of this cave by chance while collecting herbs under very coincidental circumstances.

  After eating dry rations outside the cave like a whirlwind sweeping away residual clouds, and replenishing their energy, the two of them quickly used their daggers to cut open the green vines at the entrance. Before long, the entrance was cleared out spotlessly, and suddenly a massive opening appeared before the two of them.

  Looking from the entrance, it was dark and bottomless inside. The cave emitted waves of cold air that made the two people shiver. What's even more astonishing is that black mist emerged from the cave and was blown away by the mountain wind.

  "Hurry back, be careful of the poisonous fog." Mu Feng said as he pulled Yang Zhan back with his hand.

  Mo Feng let Yang Zhan search for a mountain sparrow in the mountains, using grass to hang it into the cave. After a while, seeing that the mountain sparrow was still jumping around, he confirmed that this black fog had no effect on living things.

  Two people stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the bottomless and foggy black hole, staring at each other in dismay.

  In the cave, black fog churned like a black monster baring its teeth and claws, as if to swallow two young men. A strange atmosphere permeated the entire entrance, making people's spines chill.

  Relying on his past climbing experience and intuition, Mu Feng sensed a hint of danger emanating from this cave, especially the unknown black fog, which although temporarily confirmed to be harmless to humans, still exuded all sorts of strangeness.

  "Are you going in?" Mu Feng asked Yang Zhan beside him.

  Yang Zhan did not respond, staring at the deep cave entrance, his heart was also uncertain, and he had not thought about whether to go in or not.

  The two of them hesitated for half a day. The young man's curious nature finally overcame his fear, and the two of them held torches and eventually entered the cave.

  Sorry about the late update. My computer is broken and I need to get it fixed tomorrow. But there will be three updates tomorrow.
