Chapter 420: 417: The Giant Python Becomes a Ran_1
However, its inability to fly did not prevent the golden-claw python from displaying its speed.
As it landed in the forest, the golden-claw python’s body turned a corner at lightning speed. In the blink of an eye, it had already rushed an unknown distance.
Wang Yulong, who had been chasing behind Yang Chen believing he had no way to escape, was left dumbfounded. He couldn’t react to the sudden change of events.
This whole process only took a few breaths.
When Yang Chen summoned the golden-claw python, his speed changed drastically within a few breaths. From initially being about to be caught, he soon became evenly matched with Wang Yulong and eventually created a significant distance between them.
Now, looking at Yang Chen riding the golden-claw python, where was there any trace of him?
He had completely disappeared.
This was no joke.
Wang Yulong had given up chasing, unable to find any sign or even sense Yang Chen’s Qi. With no way to pursue, he could only abandon his hopes.
“Senior Brother Wang!”
“Senior Brother Wang!”
Soon, many of the geniuses from Sun Star City caught up. Seeing Wang Yulong standing there in silence, they couldn’t help but ask, “Senior Brother Wang, who was that person just now?”
“Senior Brother Wang, where is that person now?”
“That kid stole the Dragon Pattern Leopard’s corpse. We must catch him and crush him into pieces! How dare he steal something from our Sun Star City, it’s like digging his own grave!”
Wang Yulong, already fuming with rage, couldn’t stay calm after hearing those words, and roared, “How would I know where he is?”
This was the most humiliating part.
If they could see the person’s face clearly, at least they would have a clue. But now, not even the person’s face had been seen, how could they investigate?
Thinking of the traces left by zero-zero-three, Wang Yulong shouted, “Search for any Spirit Martial Realm Peak martial artist, capture and interrogate them immediately. If there’s anything suspicious, kill and search their bodies, no hesitation or talking. Also, if any python-like demonic beasts are found, capture them too. If we don’t find that person, we’ll all face punishment when we return.”
Upon thinking of the brutal punishment, the group of geniuses shuddered and began searching for clues swiftly.
What Sun Star City had done was now unrelated to Yang Chen.
Currently, he was perched atop the demonic python’s head, having escaped Wang Yulong’s sight and reached an unknown plain. This vast area was home to many demonic beasts, but they all fled upon sensing the terrifying aura of the python, not daring to stay.
There was no other way; the demonic python’s martial arts cultivation alone was quite intimidating, and the Origin Martial Realm level beasts had to admit that within the Secret Realm, it was an effective deterrent.
Yang Chen asked the python to stop and began to tally his spoils from this encounter: the corpse of the Dragon Pattern Leopard.
Although the most valuable essence blood of the Dragon Pattern Leopard had been refined by the python, it was undeniable that the leopard’s corpse was also a rare treasure.
“This Dragon Pattern Leopard’s body has been washed by its bloodline, making its flesh and skin far superior to ordinary demonic beast corpses. Using its flesh and skin as the main ingredient, I can concoct a perfect fourth-grade pill called the Dragon Pattern Pill.” Yang Chen clucked his tongue in admiration.
What is the Dragon Pattern Pill?
The Dragon Pattern Pill was a kind of elixir that could help strengthen True Qi mutation, most suitable for Spirit Martial Realm users.
Because when the martial artist of the Spirit Martial Realm enters the Origin Martial Realm, the massive increase in True Qi was almost akin to mutation.
Simply put, with the Dragon Pattern Pill, Yang Chen was confident he could make a breakthrough to Half-step Yuan Martial Realm in a short period of time.
Unfortunately, he was still missing a main ingredient for the pill: the Yellow Spirit Grass.
“Only one main ingredient called Yellow Spirit Grass is left. Such a pity. This Yellow Spirit Grass is also a precious item. If I can find it and refine the Dragon Pattern Pill, I can reach the Half-step Origin Martial Realm. With my current means, I’ll have confidence in battling even a master of the Origin Martial Realm’s Second Layer.” Yang Chen murmured.
If it were a normal Origin Martial Realm, even the Third Layer, he would not be afraid.
But the opponents he faced were no ordinary Yuan Martial Realm, but rather a group of geniuses.
Thinking of this, Yang Chen sighed in frustration, carefully putting away the corpse of the Dragon Pattern Leopard and then looking at the demonic python, “Brother Python, I’ve been calling you Brother Python but haven’t given you a proper name yet. Now that you’ve transformed from an ordinary demonic python into a giant python, and in the future you might evolve into another species, I can’t always call you Brother Python.”
The Golden Claw Python hissed and said with a nasal tone, “Young Master, just let you name me. But I’m curious, what will I evolve into after evolving from a common demonic python to a giant python?”
“It’s said that giant pythons become Ran. If you evolve further, you can no longer be called a python, but a Ran,” Yang Chen murmured, “Transforming into a Jiao is becoming a Ran. Brother Python, if your cultivation reaches True Martial Realm, you can evolve into a Ran. When you reach the Earth Martial Realm, you can become a Jiao!”
“What if I reach Heaven Martial Realm?” The Golden Claw Python was filled with anticipation, trembling with excitement.
Yang Chen smiled, “If nothing unexpected happens, a Jiao turns into a dragon. Brother Python, even if you can’t fully transform into a dragon when you reach Heaven Martial Realm, becoming half a dragon shouldn’t be a problem. As for the specifics, I can’t explain it clearly, as there isn’t much record of it in historical ancient books.”
Perhaps someone had succeeded in cultivating a golden-claw python into a true dragon in ancient times, but there was no record of it in ancient books, so Yang Chen was not very clear about the python’s growth process.
For now, the only thing to do was take things one step at a time.
The Golden Claw Python had already completed its first transformation and looked forward to the future, eagerly wanting to undergo the second transformation.
Yang Chen pondered for a moment and then said, “Brother Python, I just realized that your claws have begun to turn gold after evolving into a giant python. How about we name you Golden Claw?”
“Golden Claw!” The Golden Claw Python grunted, “This name is true to my nature. Young Master, I, old python, have no objections.”
“Good, from now on I will call you Brother Jin,” Yang Chen laughed heartily.
