Super Gene Hunting Ground

Chapter 246: Chapter 246: Mysterious Radiance

Yang Xiao discovered that the half-exposed body of the giant python, protruding from the water surface, was twenty to thirty meters high, with a diameter of at least two meters. Its body was covered in dark scales with two crimson eyes glowing like lanterns in the darkness.

”Hiss—”

The giant python let out a hiss, its several-meter-long crimson tongue lashing out with a puff of white vapor.

”Attack!”

As the team leader, Ding Gao let out a shout, charged forward with his Light Shield, and slashed at the giant python from a distance. A powerful Sword Qi burst forth, plunging straight towards the python.

At the same time, ten bird people in mid-air, along with two Giant Eagles, instantly fired hundreds of Fiery Feather Arrows. Those equipped with Close Combat Beast Souls also rushed forward, unleashing various Soul Skills towards the giant python. Dozens of Ice Balls, Fireballs, electric arcs, Wind Blades, and other Elemental Magic Attacks followed suit.

In an instant, various lights flashed, and terrifying Combat Power exploded above the pool.

From a distance of 500 meters, Yang Xiao and the others could feel the air around them violently fluctuating.

”Everyone pay attention, step back a bit. If the situation turns south, run immediately.”

With a piercing cry, a golden flash surrounded the giant python, and a golden Protective Light Screen completely enveloped it. Then, with a whooshing sound, the lower half of the giant python burst out of the pool, its silhouette flickered, and it swept its massive tail toward Ding Gao and the others.

Boom, boom, boom...

A series of explosions rang out as the various attacks detonated on the python’s golden Protective Light Screen, which vibrated intensely and instantly showed hundreds of cracks, some even blew open gaps.

Howl—

Clearly injured by the group’s attacks, the python let out a howl as its enormous tail swept over.

”Fall back, hold the line!”

Ding Gao yelled, and the twenty Close Combat Beast Souls in the front row quickly positioned their Light Shields in front of them.

Boom!

The python’s tail came crashing down, hitting Ding Gao and others at the forefront.

Everyone’s bodies shook, and they were sent flying tens of meters into the air before crashing heavily onto the sandy ground.

Some suffered fractures, others spat blood; everyone quickly took out Small Blood Pills and swallowed them.

The Elemental Mages in the rear continued to deal out attacks relentlessly, while the Giant Eagles and bird people in the sky kept shooting Fiery Feather Arrows, continuously exploding against the python’s golden Protective Light Screen.

More cracks appeared on the golden Protective Light Screen, which was on the brink of collapse.

Howl—

The python soared into the sky, darting towards the ten bird people with a flash. It opened its massive mouth and exhaled a dense white breath, instantly enveloping the bird people.

”Damn, that’s Extreme Cold Energy.”

”This is the Frost Giant Python!”

As everyone exclaimed, the bird people were encased in a layer of ice. Their wings helpless, they fell from mid-air one after another. Only the two Giant Eagles managed to fly high out of the white mist of ice.

On the ground, thirty distant Elemental Mages continued to attack the giant python in mid-air. After consuming their Small Blood Pills, Ding Gao and the others formed a human wall, guarding in front of the Elemental Mages, each unleashing their Soul Skills to attack the python above.

With another hiss, the python reappeared from mid-air, pouncing towards the dozens of people on the ground, its mouth wide open, emitting a white breath of Extreme Cold Energy.

This rush of cold frost left those in the front rank, including Ding Gao, trembling, instantly covered in a layer of ice.

The Elemental Mages in the back hastily retreated while continuing to fire off various Elemental Attacks as they did so.

The fallen bird people shook off the ice on their bodies, each swallowed a Small Blood Pill, and took to the sky once more to fire Fiery Feather Arrows at the giant python. The two Giant Eagles also flew back into the fray.

The golden Protective Light Screen on the python’s body had been slowly repairing itself but was once again blasted apart.

This time, the giant python was even more severely wounded.

Ding Gao’s Beast Soul was the Tis City Tiger. With an enraged roar, two huge Tiger Claws appeared in mid-air, directly gripping the golden Protective Light Screen of the python. With a powerful rip, the sound of tearing echoed as a ten-meter-long gap was created in the python’s golden Protective Light Screen.

”Attack, aim for the gap!”

The people below roared fiercely, and a barrage of Elemental Magic Attacks and Fiery Feathered Arrows flew towards the gap in the Protective Light Screen.

Boom boom...

A series of massive explosions rang out as the python wailed in pain, its body convulsing violently and spewing out a mist of blood.

With its dying struggles, the python’s entire body suddenly burst with light, and it once again soared into the sky, lunging directly at Ding Gao and the others. Its hefty tail swept across, kicking up a fierce sandstorm.

”The python is going all out, fall back, evade, long-range attackers, quickly suppress it!”

Ding Gao shouted loudly.

The people on the ground retreated explosively.

However, the python was incredibly fast, its massive tail, carrying the powerful sandstorm, swept across again, and with a thud, dozens of people were sent flying, three of them had their bones shattered and died instantly, while five or six others were severely injured and dropped to the ground, unable to stand up.

Even the Elemental Mages behind were engulfed in the violent sandstorm and fell to the ground one after another.

The ten Birdmen in the sky launched Feathered Arrows with all their might. The two Giant Eagles seemed to sense the urgency as well, and with a thunderous boom, they simultaneously released a volley of hundreds of Feathered Arrows, which once again exploded against the tattered golden Protective Light Screen of the python, emitting an earth-shattering noise.

”Aow—”

The python screeched wildly, spewing another mist of blood, struggling to twist its enormous body and leaping into the sky, pouncing toward the Giant Eagles overhead.

The python’s lantern-sized blood-red eyes shot out two red laser-like beams, targeting the two Giant Eagles in mid-air.

From a distance, Huang Wen cried out in shock:

”Be careful, Yingying!”

Sensing danger, the two Giant Eagles suddenly flapped their wings with a whoosh, their massive bodies soaring dozens of meters into the high sky.

Just then, Yang Xiao, who was watching the battle from a kilometer away, saw a light flash across the distant sky, accompanied by a thunderous roar by his ears.

The bright light came swiftly from the distant sky, reaching the python’s position overhead in the blink of an eye, growing increasingly dazzling, as though a meteor was falling.

Even from a kilometer away, Yang Xiao felt a ringing in his ears, and the surrounding space seemed to warp.

A wave of fear rose from the depths of his heart.

Yang Xiao shouted loudly,

”Not good, run!”

Immediately, he grabbed Huang Wen with his left hand and Qin Yu with his right, retreating at full speed.

Deng Xiao, Dai Yun, and Chen Fei also sprinted away in an instant.

Yang Xiao only felt the space around him warping more severely, a strong sense of oppression making it hard for him to breathe. At the same time, he heard an earth-shattering noise behind him, and the sandy ground seemed to shake violently.

Ahead of Yang Xiao was a concave sand dune.

”Get down!”

Yang Xiao instantly pulled both Huang Wen and Qin Yu down into the hollow of the sand dune, pressing down on Huang Wen with his left hand and on Qin Yu with his right.

Deng Xiao and the others also threw themselves down in the hollow.

Just as Yang Xiao lay down, he felt an extremely strong shockwave sweep overhead, bringing with it a fierce sandstorm. The six of them were instantly buried in the sand.
