Chapter 1440 - Chapter 1440 Gurus Fighting Against the Python!
Fang Qiu released his Divine Consciousness. Soon, he sensed a very subtle energy fluctuation coming from the depths of the swamp forest ahead.
The source of the energy fluctuation was in the deepest part of the jungle. A giant python circled the area.
“This aura…”
Fang Qiu thought of something and looked around.
He found a big tree nearby. It looked the same as the ones in the wetland before him. Quietly, he came to the back of the tree, tiptoed, and immediately flew up. Covered by the thick tree trunk, he rushed straight to the crown of the tree tens of meters high in the air. Then, under the cover of the canopy, he moved and flew forward.
He came to the sky above the wetland jungle.
Fang Qiu hid in the crown of a big tree on the periphery.
From this position, he could see everything below.
He looked over.
The center of the woods was 50 meters before him. The giant python was entrenched there. Because Fang Qiu was in a high place, he could see a dazzling sparkle in the encirclement formed by the giant python.
It was a fruit like a water drop hanging on a palm-sized plant.
The crystal-clear fruit was shining brightly.
It looked exceptionally beautiful.
Fang Qiu stared at the fruit.
His face changed dramatically.
The dazzling light from the fruit was harsh for ordinary people’s eyes. But for Fang Qiu, its fierce glow could not block his sight. Therefore, he could see the fruit. It was shining with radiance because it was wrapped by a layer of leaves like prisms.
Surrounded by the sparkling and translucent leaves, a bit of green light emerged in the middle.
On the whole…
It was like a bud ready to burst.
“The fruit of life?”
When Fang Qiu stared at the fruit, his throat felt dry and constricted. Fang Qiu felt extremely thirsty, as if he had become dehydrated.
The fruit of life…
It was often called Life Fruit and ranked sixth on the ranking list for Heaven Treasures.
According to records…
The heaven essence formed its leaves, while the earth essence fostered Life Fruit. After a hundred years of nourishment, it bore a bud. When its fruit came into being, it would absorb the essence of heaven and earth. Then, the fruit would emerge from its outermost shell like a cicada sloughing its skin. As such, it was named Life Fruit.
Fang Qiu couldn’t take his eyes off this No. 6 Heaven Treasure, feeling his mouth parched and tongue scorched.
A Heaven Treasure at such a high level…
Compared with those Fang Qiu had encountered before, this one was several times or even dozens of times rarer.
To his surprise…
He encountered one here!
In fact…
The Divine Consciousness cultivated by Fang Qiu was used to search for Heaven and Earth Treasures. But along the way, Fang Qiu didn’t notice any unusual movements of the Heaven and Earth energy. It was because of Life Fruit’s character.
Everything about Life Fruit was for its final fruit. There was the heaven essence in its leaves like a flower bud. In addition, its green stem under the bud absorbed the earth essence. All the essence from heaven and earth was transferred into the Life Fruit!
Since the Life Fruit needed the essence energy, not a single drop of it was not supposed to be wasted. There was a layer of light-reflecting leaves like mirrors. When the Life Fruit was ripe, these leaves would fall off. Only then would it emit its energy aura.
In this case…
Fang Qiu couldn’t detect it with his Divine Consciousness. Thus, he could only watch it with his naked eyes.
“This Murica group must have come for it.”
Fang Qiu nodded to himself.
He saw the Life Fruit’s leaves spread out a little. It was like a bud getting ready to open.
Without this narrow gap, Fang Qiu wouldn’t have felt the strange movement of the energy just now.
“At this speed, Life Fruit will soon become ripe!”
Fang Qiu narrowed his eyes.
He turned to look at General Will and the others.
His eyes fell on the giant python confronting General Will and the others. In a flash, Fang Qiu figured out why the Murica troops had never discovered such a giant python in the jungle. It turned out it had been living in this place a hundred kilometers from the military base.
Since the Life Fruit was about to ripen, it moved to clear the military base!
The two giant pythons had lived here for at least hundreds of years. Otherwise, they would have grown so large.
“UAV!”
Facing the python, General Will waved his right hand and asked for the unmanned aerial vehicle.
His subordinate instantly released a drone aircraft. It rose quickly, and its camera caught the Life Fruit surrounded by the giant python.
The scientific researcher with this group saw the scene from the screen connected to the drone. On the spot, he called out in a frenzy of joy. “Yes, that’s it. This fruit must contain a large amount of active substance. I can tell it is about to ripen from its growth state!”
“Great!”
General Will laughed out loud and said, “No wonder the giant python sent a smaller python to block us. It wants to keep this treasure all to itself.”
“Attack!”
“Kill the smaller one before you strike the larger one!”
General Will ordered.
The squad following the smaller python here fired at it without hesitation.
“Clap, clap, clap…”
Gunshots rang out wildly.
Countless bullets hit the python in an instant.
“Chirp!”
The python opened its mouth wide and let out an ear-piercing scream. Then, it suddenly moved. With incredible speed, it began circling General Will and the others.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The water and mud on the ground splashed in all directions. This python wound its way through the lush vines and trees outside the wetland with woods, smashing all the green plants.
“Whoosh!”
The Murica soldiers fired frantically at this fast-moving python. It suddenly swung its tail out of the blue, which swept over with tremendous force.
Almost all the plants in this area were flattened.
Next…
“Bang!”
There was a loud bang.
The tail knocked the off-road vehicle driven by General Will and the others ten meters away. It kept rolling and violently hit a big tree, causing an explosion!
A distance away…
The giant python coiling around the Life Fruit lazily raised its head and glanced at these humans with indifference.
There…
After its tail swept away the military vehicle with one blow…
The python suddenly turned around and opened its mouth wide. Madly, it pounced on General Will and the others.
“Rat-a-tat-tat-tat…”
The Murica soldiers fired wildly.
Previously…
They remembered bullets had penetrated its scales. Surprisingly, this python’s wounds completely healed in less than an hour. Even the new scales could block bullets. None of their bullets was shot into the python.
Only the horn on the python’s head and the bloody wound hadn’t recovered.
“Get out of the way.”
General Will shouted.
The giant python charged forward regardless of the severe consequences. When bullets hit its mouth, jets of blood sprayed everywhere. However, it was simply unstoppable!
“Whoosh.”
The python swept across this space.
Again, it turned its head angrily and lunged at the group of soldiers.
It swallowed several Murica soldiers that couldn’t react in time.
“Damn it!”
General Will cursed. Then he turned to look at the two aides in military uniforms behind him and said, “You two, go and kill it!”
“Yes.”
The two aides answered, instantly erupting a burst of mighty Qi power.
“Gurus!”
Fang Qiu stayed on the crown of a tree dozens of meters high. When he felt the Qi power from the two people, his face suddenly changed, revealing an unreadable expression.
What a great surprise.
Two gurus accompanied General Will.
The giant python didn’t pay attention to their battle. Perhaps, it was because enemies here were unworthy of its notice. But now that two gurus had appeared, it had to take this battle seriously.
Thinking of this, Fang Qiu turned to look at the giant python.
It had been coiling languidly around the Life Fruit on the ground. As Fang Qiu had expected, it lifted its head, gazing down at the two gurus fighting with the smaller python from a distance!
“Interesting.”
Fang Qiu chuckled. Taking advantage of this period, he secretly hid his aura and figure. Quietly, he moved toward the wetland, approaching the Life Fruit.
A big tree was 10 meters away from the python and the fruit. When reaching its crown, Fang Qiu instantly remained motionless. He completely hid his energy aura and lowered his body temperature to that of his surroundings.
A distance away…
Two gurus took action. They surrounded the smaller python. One guru attacked its head; the other assaulted its tail.
With a closer look…
He found the two gurus were vampire descendants!
The Murica government must have hired them to protect General Will.
“Screech…”
Being besieged by two gurus, the python opened its mouth wide and roared angrily.
However, the two gurus didn’t stop for a second. Each held a sword with a long thin blade. They would stab it at any chance.
In this case, the python couldn’t simultaneously consider the tail and head.
Eventually…
One guru found a good chance and burst out a layer of the aura of blood. He stabbed the thin sword into the python’s heart and violently sliced.
He cut the python in two pieces from its heart!
“Clap, clap, clap…”
Even though its head was chopped off, the python was still twisting wildly. Its mouth open and closed repeatedly, trying to bite its rivals. At last, the two gurus kicked the body parts into the air. When these bloody pieces fell into the jungle in the distance, they gradually stopped moving.
Right at this moment…
The giant python in the depths of the woods on the wetland had straightened entirely up. In a defensive counterattack posture, it repeatedly flicked out its brawny tongue, with its eyes fixed on General Will and his men.
“Kill it!”
After slaying the smaller python, General Will laughed out loud and gave another order.
The two gurus from the blood clan immediately set off, dashing toward the giant python.
