Chapter 236 He Was Terrified
“It’s true. If you insist on going there, this will be a profound training for you,” Elder Ming said in a low voice.
“Training? Then I want to go there and see what kind of scene it is. Even you are worried about it.”
Chen Hao took a deep breath and strode forward with steady steps.
There was a gentle breeze in the forest, and the lush green leaves swayed gently with the breeze.
Chen Hao walked forward step by step in the weeds in such an environment.
After walking for a few minutes, his nose moved, and his eyes narrowed.
“There’s the smell of blood!”
Chen Hao slowed down his steps and walked along the path with the smell of blood. Finally, he came to the side of a collapsed tree and saw a giant python.
This huge python was no longer breathing. There was a fist mark on the body of the huge python. It seemed that it had been killed by a punch.
“This is!”
Seeing this scene, Chen Hao’s expression was solemn. After confirming that there was no danger around, he quickly examined the corpse of the huge python. As he carefully examined it, Chen Hao’s expression became more and more solemn.
“It’s actually a huge python at the Black Iron Rank Peak. With such strength, it was actually killed by a punch. It’s truly a terrifying attack.”
Chen Hao was still in shock as he felt the pressure.
Although his strength had reached the Low-Level Bronze Rank, it was still not easy for him to kill a giant python at the Black Iron Rank Peak with a single punch. It would take him a long time to do so.
“There’s more ahead. Keep watching,” Elder Ming’s voice rang out. “There’s more?”
Chen Hao’s expression became tenser and tenser as he continued to walk forward rapidly. Soon, he saw the corpses of two more giant pythons. These two giant pythons were also killed by a single punch.
Most importantly, the strength of this python when it was alive had reached the Low-Level Bronze Rank.
“It actually killed two Low-Level Bronze Rank pythons. What terrifying strength.”
Chen Hao’s expression became more and more serious as he felt the terror of the person who attacked.
Without any hesitation, Chen Hao continued to move forward and saw a few more python corpses. These corpses were basically all killed by a single punch.
The most important thing was that there was actually a Mid-Level Bronze Rank python among these corpses. This frightened Chen Hao, and he finally realized the seriousness of the matter.
“Continue to move forward. This is just the beginning. It’s just the tip of the iceberg,” said Elder Ming faintly.
“Just the tip of the iceberg? There are even more terrifying things behind?!”
Chen Hao was shocked. The defensive power of the Python was astonishing. To kill a Mid-Level Bronze Rank python with a single punch, one needed at least the strength of the Bronze Rank Peak.
With such a strong strength, even though Chen Hao had cultivated the Yin-Yang Treasured Book, he could feel the pressure multiply. However, Elder Ming said that this was just the beginning, just the tip of the iceberg.
This was a little scary. Chen Hao could not help but take a deep breath and say.
“Elder Ming, tell me who did this! I can withstand it.”
Chen Hao said solemnly. He was inexplicably nervous in his heart. The main reason was that he thought of Li Xuan.
Facing Li Xuan, even though Chen Hao had broken through to the Low-Level Bronze Rank, he still did not have the confidence.
The main reason was that in the previous few secret battles, he had lost miserably, and trauma rose in his heart.
However, when he thought of the increase in his strength in the past half a month and the Yin-Yang Treasured Book’s cultivation method, he had some confidence in his heart. At the same time, he also felt that it was impossible for Li Xuan to surpass him so quickly.
After all, the Yin-Yang Treasured Book’s cultivation technique could allow him to cultivate automatically in the dark night. No one had ever been able to surpass such a speed since ancient times. Under such a speed, he had only reached the Low-Level Bronze Rank.
Moreover, Li Xuan was still a youth. How could he surpass Chen Hao?
Therefore, according to normal logic, the person who killed these giant pythons was not Li Xuan. There might be someone else.
Therefore, Chen Hao said half-jokingly, “The person who killed these giant pythons should not be Li Xuan, right?”
“You’re right, it’s Li Xuan!” Elder Ming said faintly.
“What? It’s Li Xuan?”
Chen Hao was stunned. It was as if his brain had been hammered, buzzing.
He had analyzed for a long time that it was not Li Xuan who did it, but after thinking about it, it was actually Li Xuan who did it in the end. This was simply terrible to the extreme.
“Why? I have clearly cultivated the Yin-Yang Treasured Book’s technique and my cultivation speed is unmatched by anyone else. Why is he still able to surpass me?” Chen Hao’s voice was hoarse.
“Maybe it’s the effect of the Transcendence Fruit. That’s all I can think of.” Elder Ming sighed.
Bang!
Chen Hao punched the big tree next to him and said in a hoarse voice.
“Didn’t you say that the Transcendence Fruit provided by the sect is unorthodox? If it’s a fruit that could improve one’s strength or physique, how could the Divine Pill Sect be willing to take it out?”
“I don’t know. Just now, I saw Li Xuan blast these giant pythons to death with my own eyes. Other than the Transcendence Fruits, I can’t think of anything else. Although I don’t want to admit it, you have lost again!” Elder Ming’s voice was low and deep. “Lost again?” When Chen Hao heard these words, his body staggered back two steps as he said with a somewhat sorrowful tone.
“In order to surpass Li Xuan, I lost everything. I even lost the characteristics of a man. However, I didn’t expect that I would actually lose again.”
“To think that I was still complacent about breaking through to the Low-Level Bronze Rank. I didn’t expect that I would still lose miserably.”
Chen Hao raised his head to look at the sky. Tears had unknowingly appeared in his eyes.
“Leave. If you can survive this heart tempering, your strength will rise for a period of time,” Elder Ming advised.
“Leave? If I don’t go and see Li Xuan’s true strength, won’t it mean that I’m afraid if I leave? You underestimate me too much. Even if I crawl today, I still want to see what happened inside!”
After Chen Hao finished speaking, he took large strides and started to move forward. His fists were tightly clenched as he ran at high speed. He swore to see the true gap between him and Li Xuan.
Chen Hao’s speed was very fast. In a short moment, he had reached the entrance of the Python Valley. Then, he stopped. This was because he discovered that the plants in the Python Valley had turned from green to yellow. Even the rocks on both sides of the entrance were continuously corroded by an unknown black substance.
“What a tyrannical poison!”
Chen Hao immediately felt dizzy after inhaling a bit of the black poison. He hurriedly took out a medicinal pill and swallowed it. Then, he used his Spiritual Power to protect himself. Only then did he feel much better.
With a deep curiosity, Chen Hao walked toward the Python Valley bit by bit. He slowly saw more scenes.
Withered grass, corroded boulders, densely packed Python corpses, and the strange black fog that permeated half of the valley.
This black fog was extremely terrifying, and everything that it passed through was deathly silent.
Even the Bronze Rank Peak Giant Python King died in the black fog. Its corpse corroded violently, and in an instant, it turned into nothingness.
If it was not for the black fog intentionally leaving behind the corpse of the giant python, everything here might have been corroded.
Seeing this terrifying scene, Chen Hao’s scalp went numb, and his face was as pale as paper.
Suddenly…
The black fog in the Python Valley rolled, and like a surging wave, it arrived in the sky above Chen Hao. That terrifying black fog was like a monster that wanted to devour people, staring at Chen Hao.
The black fog slowly rolled, and a fair-skinned young man’s figure flew out from the black fog, floating quietly in the air.
His appearance was handsome, and his expression was as calm as water. His eyes were slightly lowered, and his gaze casually swept across Chen Hao before floating away. He was surprisingly Li Xuan.
“Huff, huff, huff!”
Not long after Li Xuan left, Chen Hao collapsed onto the ground, continuously panting. Only then did he realize that his back had unknowingly been drenched.
“How terrifying! He was actually so terrifying! That indifferent glance of his made me feel as if he was looking at an ant.”
Chen Hao said with lingering fear. He finally felt the huge gap between him and Li Xuan. It was like the gap between heaven and earth.
He did not even feel such terrifying pressure from a Silver Rank powerhouse.
“So he’s so strong. It’s funny that I actually want to compete with Li Xuan in strength. Perhaps he doesn’t know me at all. It’s just my own imagination,” Chen Hao’s voice was somewhat sorrowful as he said.
“Chen Hao, don’t be discouraged. This experience is a good thing for you. You will definitely be stronger in the future. Moreover, the time for you to take off is about to begin,” Elder Ming comforted him. “Elder Ming, don’t comfort me. I know the gap between me and Li Xuan.” Chen Hao shook his head and completely gave up on competing with Li Xuan.
“What I said is true. Besides, it’s also a good thing that Li Xuan is strong. The disaster is about to begin. With such a powerful expert…”
“Perhaps the humans within a thousand miles will not die out,” Elder Ming said faintly.
