Dao of The Demonic Cultivator

Chapter 60: You Shall Perish

Boom, boom, boom!

A variety of attacks landed on the python, causing its flesh to split open and eliciting continuous screams of agony.

The python's provocative behavior clearly did not work. It had intended to enrage the superhumans, luring them into the river to exploit its home field advantage and annihilate them one by one. Yet, it failed.

Blood spurted from the python's body, quickly staining the river red. Every time its massive tail attempted a strike, the battle-hardened Xiong Xing anticipated it. At those moments, he would hurl especially sharp, poison-coated iron spears, specifically prepared for the python. These potent poisoned spears forced the python to retract its massive tail defensively.

After a chaotic battle, the python was left with numerous wounds, and a third of its scales were shattered. However, from the human superhumans' side, only three Linjiang Army soldiers and six members of the Black Blade security company had fallen.

Under the fierce firepower, the python's screams continued, seemingly powerless to retaliate. At this rate, the scales of battle would completely tip in favor of the superhumans.

A fierce light flashed in the eyes of Xiong Xing and Li Tiemu. They sought vengeance for their fallen comrades!

In the clouds above, Chu Xuan watched, yawning continuously. Until now, the python had not shown any traits that impressed him, except for its cunning nature which had piqued his slight interest.

However, at this moment, Chu Xuan suddenly felt a familiar fluctuation from within the python's body.

"This is..."

Chu Xuan's spirits lifted.

The next moment, the python raised its two heads sharply, and from its mouth, a dark purple mist erupted. The mist was sinister and eerie, filled with ghostly wails and wolf howls. If one listened closely, it was enough to send a shiver through the soul!

The crowd instinctively sensed the ominous nature and scattered. But some were too slow to react and were enveloped by the dark purple mist.

When the mist dispersed, only twisted and lifeless bodies with no warmth remained. Even a first-tier superhuman could only withstand a few more seconds in the purple-black mist before succumbing just like ordinary humans.

Wang Gangjian's eyebrows twitched wildly at the sight. He recognized this mist.

It was identical to the mist he saw near the Haotai Hotel area during the day of the zombie tide!

"Run! Run for your lives!"

Wang Gangjian, without a second thought, grabbed Wang Yong and ran. That day, tens of thousands of zombies and a large number of supernatural beings rushed into the area covered by the mist. All of them died! Compared to those zombies, they were pitifully few and weak!

How could they possibly withstand the assault of this dark purple mist?

Tang Jinchuan and Song Dayi, though unsure of what was happening, nonetheless followed closely behind.

Xiong Xing and Li Tiemu were now enveloped in the purple-black mist as well. However, as seasoned second-tier superhumans, they were not as vulnerable.

Moreover, the Yin Evil Qi exhaled by the two-headed python had already been significantly diluted.

Despite the dilution, Xiong Xing and Li Tiemu still found it unbearable. It felt as though hordes of little demons had invaded their minds, vigorously tearing at their souls and flesh. They were powerless to resist, forced to watch helplessly as they were shredded to pieces.

This sensation was fleeting.

Just then, a calm voice echoed from the heavens, "Those who steal my things shall die."

The voice seemed like a majestic chant that purified the soul, instantly shattering the ghostly wails and terrifying illusions.

By the time Xiong Xing and Li Tiemu regained their senses, they found their bodies incredibly stiff. Several areas were even turning a deathly cyan. Clearly, if this continued, their bodies would perish!

They looked up to the sky in unison and saw a figure standing on a flying sword, overlooking the mortal realm. The figure's garments fluttered, his gaze indifferent, reminiscent of the legendary Daoist immortals who transcended earthly desires.

Wang Gangjian, Wang Yong, and the others who had fled stopped in their tracks upon hearing the voice, staring incredulously at the sky.

He had appeared! The mysterious cultivator had appeared!

Tang Jinchuan was visibly excited. Among those present, he was one of the few who had personally witnessed Chu Xuan. Unbeknownst to him, he had become an admirer of Chu Xuan.

This enigmatic cultivator always appeared just in the nick of time!

The python also fixed its gaze on Chu Xuan. Its four snake eyes brimmed with a mix of bloodthirst, brutality, fear, and rage. It could instantly tell that Chu Xuan was no ordinary being. Since its awakening and transformation into a supernatural being, it had never seen a human capable of flying. This man was the first!

Moreover, the Yin Evil Qi it had emitted was effortlessly neutralized by this human, and all it took was a single sentence!

The python's wariness of Chu Xuan surpassed all enemies it had ever encountered.

Chu Xuan looked at the two-headed python with an indifferent expression. He had not expected that the python could exhale Yin Evil Qi. It must have accidentally absorbed the Yin Evil during an encounter with the array. Its body must possess some peculiar quality; otherwise, it would have perished within the array long ago, let alone be able to store and use the Yin Evil Qi as a trump card against its foes.

"Hiss!"

The python, feeling Chu Xuan's gaze, became agitated and let out a long, furious hiss. Its scales bristled as both snake heads lunged fiercely at Chu Xuan.

"Hu, Bao, it's up to you now," Chu Xuan casually remarked, his left hand holding out the Tower.

"Roar!"

A hulking figure nearly three meters tall appeared as if from nowhere. The figure's fist smashed toward the attacking snake heads. Although this figure was colossal and far beyond ordinary humans, it still appeared lamb-like compared to the massive body of the two-headed python.

Everyone watching had the same thought: To punch such a gargantuan beast, wasn't that courting death? It seemed as futile as a mantis trying to stop a chariot, or a mayfly shaking a tree!

As all eyes converged on the scene, a loud 'bang' resonated.

The fearsome snake's head was instantly burst by the fist. Eyeballs, teeth, scales, blood, bones... scattered everywhere, almost like bullets, penetrating everything in their path. Some unlucky onlookers who were too close were impaled by the debris.

Those struck by this bloody misfortune had their throats, hearts, and arteries pierced, dying instantly on the spot.

Everyone's eyes widened in shock, including Xiong Xing and Li Tiemu.

They could hardly believe that the seemingly invincible two-headed python had one of its heads blown apart by a single punch! This was not something they, or even other superhumans like Ye Nantian, could achieve.
