Chapter Sixteen: The Moment of Crisis
"Human, did you kill my child? I will kill you." The giant python suddenly spoke.
"A talking demon beast... This is a demon spirit, one that has already broken through the Nascent Soul stage. Could it be seeking revenge for those demon snakes?" Lu Yu Feng knew he was in trouble as soon as the giant python spoke, only a demon spirit who had broken through the Nascent Soul stage would have opened up its throat and begun to speak.
"This demon spirit is probably here to avenge those demon snakes. If I admit it, I'll definitely lose my life at its hands. Let's get through this for now." Lu Yufeng made up his mind not to admit it.
"I don't know what senior is talking about? I just entered the demon forest not long ago, and I don't understand what senior is saying." Lu Yufeng forced himself to calm down and said to the giant python.
"Hmph, humans coming to the demon forest are definitely not here for good intentions. Today, regardless of whether you killed my child or not, I will swallow you whole! Hss...". The giant python didn't care what Lu Yu Feng said, having made up its mind to eat him.
It's also strange that Lu Yufeng himself knew too little about the Demon Forest. To be aware, humans and demon beasts who enter the Demon Forest generally don't leave until one of them is dead!
"Senior..." Lu Yifeng was about to speak, but the giant python suddenly bit towards him. In its eyes, Lu Yifeng was just a weak and insignificant creature.
"It seems that this giant python has made up its mind to kill me, humph, I also can't just sit and wait for death." Lu Yuefeng saw that the demon spirit didn't listen to his explanation at all, immediately raised the knife in his hand, fully mobilized the spiritual energy inside his body, and slashed at the giant python's head as it bit over.
"Clang...." The iron knife chopped down on the giant python's head, producing a metallic crashing sound. The two forces collided, and the python's head was deflected to one side. The iron knife only left a faint mark on the python's head.
"Hmph, even a broken iron sword dares to harm my physical body." The giant python curled up its tail and swept it towards Lu Yu Feng.
Lu Yufeng raised his sword and swept it horizontally, chopping at the giant python's tail as it swung towards him.
"Ding..." The iron knife blocked the giant python's attack, but a mortal object was after all a mortal object and could not withstand such an impact. It shattered with a loud noise. Lu Yufeng's right hand that held the knife also trembled from the force of the recoil.
"This is terrible, this giant python is too strong, it's completely beyond what I can handle." Lu Yufeng was shocked in his heart.
Before the giant python could react, Lu Yufeng turned around and jumped in another direction to escape. Although Lu Yufeng was very powerful, when he encountered this kind of demon spirit, he could only run away!
"Ha! Human, you can't escape!" The giant python saw Lu Yu Feng escaping and immediately chased after him. Its speed was much faster than Lu Yu Feng's, although Lu Yu Feng had managed to escape when the python wasn't paying attention, at this rate, it wouldn't take long to catch up with Lu Yu Feng!
"No way, at this rate, I'll be caught by the giant python sooner or later..." Lu Yufeng turned his head to see that the giant python's speed was several times faster than his own, and his heart sank in alarm.
"In that case, I'll stake it all..." Lu Yufeng made up his mind and stopped in his tracks, watching as the giant python caught up to him.
"Run, human, why have you stopped running? Haha..." The giant python looked at Lu Yu Feng stopping and caught up to him with a teasing tone.
"Hmph, you killed my son and still want to run? Don't you know that the Demon Forest is our demon clan's territory? Hahaha..."
"Hmph, that little snake was killed by me, what are you going to do about it?" Lu Yufeng knew he couldn't escape, so he simply admitted to killing the giant python.
"How dare you?! Human, don't you think you're foolish? You killed my son, and now you'll pay with your own life!" The giant python was enraged, this insignificant human had killed its own son, yet still dared to speak so boldly.
"In that case, let's fight! Today, I'll die before I let you get away!" Lu Yufeng gritted his teeth and roared, the bloodthirsty nature in his soul fully ignited by this demon.
"Hmph, then let this insignificant human see that the Demon Forest is not a place where a Nascent Soul cultivator like you can act recklessly." The giant python made up its mind to kill Lu Yu Feng today.
"Hmm..." Lu Yifeng let out a cold hum, rapidly circulating the spiritual energy within his body and infusing it into his fist, which he then hurled at the giant python. Lu Yifeng knew that he was no match for the python to begin with, and to make matters worse, his weapon had shattered. His only option was to launch a preemptive attack, hoping to inflict some damage on the python.
"Hmph...underestimating oneself! The giant python looked at the incoming fist of Lu Yu Feng, swept its tail and went towards Lu Yu Feng's fist."
"Boom...." Lu Yefeng's fist slammed into the giant python's tail, feeling as if it had hit a block of iron. His fist felt like it was about to shatter. A dull thud in his chest, blood spurted out of his mouth, and his body was sent flying by the python's tail.
"Hahaha... insignificant human, you think you can hurt me?" The giant python burst into a loud laughter.
"This giant python is not something I can contend with, what to do?" Lu Yuefeng flew backward, his heart filled with great alarm, this giant python's physical body was too strong, he couldn't even hurt it.
The giant python moved closer to Lu Yu Feng, raised its tail and pressed down on him from the sky.
"Human, go die!" In the green and oily eyes of the giant python, a thick cold light flashed, ready to slap Lu Yifeng to death with one tail.
"Boom..." Lu Yefeng looked at the attacking tail, his hands exerted force and he rolled to the side. He dodged the giant python's attack. The python's tail slapped the ground, creating a huge deep pit.
"If this tail were to slap me, would I still be alive?" Lu Yufeng looked at the deep pit slapped out by the giant python, feeling a wave of powerlessness.
"Am I going to die? Am I going to die without finding my parents?" Lu Yufeng had a greatest wish in his heart, which was to find his parents and ask them face-to-face why they abandoned him. However, over the years, Lu Yufeng himself had become further and further away from this wish, and he hadn't even found any clues about his parents' whereabouts. In the end, he had even crossed into such a strange and bizarre world!
"Hmph... even if I die, I won't let you have it easy!" Lu Yufeng thought of his last and final killing move that he hadn't used yet, and suddenly let out a loud roar!
Lu Yu Feng used his hands to prop himself up and stood up, looking at the giant python slowly approaching him. He clasped his hands together in a seal and said "What's going on here?" The giant python suddenly felt the spiritual energy around it go into chaos, without knowing what was happening.
"Hmph, today it's either you die or I live!" A large palm made of spiritual energy condensed in front of Lu Yu Feng.
"Die!" Lu Yufeng also didn't dare to let the palm print's gathering time be too long, and slapped it towards the giant python from above. Wherever it passed, the wind was chaotic and the giant python had already been stunned by the might of the spiritual energy palm print. It really couldn't understand why this tiny human could have such a powerful skill. It only felt that this palm print would definitely take its life.
"Roar..." The giant python let out a loud roar and leaped into the air. But the palm print was slapped down from above, heavily slapping the giant python back down to the ground, creating a large crater.
"Boom..." The giant python was slapped into the ground by a palm print, and the momentum of the palm print did not diminish, continuing to slap towards the giant python in the pit.
The palm print came into contact with the giant python, and the earth let out a loud rumble, stirring up countless dust and smoke. Lu Yu Feng was also startled by the momentum of this move. Although he knew that the power of this move was great, he had not expected it to be so powerful. It had already broken through the demon beast's demonic spirit, and in the face of the giant palm that this move had transformed into, he was completely unable to counterattack.
"With such a powerful move, I don't know if the giant python is dead or not?" Although it didn't require the spiritual energy within Lu Yu Feng's body to support it, controlling this hand seal did indeed consume his spirit greatly. After Lu Yu Feng released the Gathering Spirit Seal, he was also exhausted and no longer had the ability to release a second palm."
As the smoke and dust dispersed, Lu Yu Feng slowly approached the giant python in the huge pit.
"Ahh..." The giant python lying in the pit suddenly straightened its body, let out a loud roar, jumped out of the huge pit, opened its bloody big mouth and pounced on Lu Yifeng.
"What? Not dead yet?! Lu Yufeng was shocked, this move with such great momentum, actually didn't kill the giant python."
Lu Yu Feng was retreating when he suddenly tripped over something and fell to the ground. As he looked up at the giant python rushing towards him, he slowly closed his eyes, unable to fight back anymore. With no other choice, Lu Yu Feng could only await death.
