"Dark Cloud Sky Transformation!"
Ye Tianfan saw the Immortal Elder shout loudly, and then he felt a strange energy rapidly circulating within the Immortal Elder's body, along with a violent force slowly emanating from the Immortal Elder, making Ye Tianfan feel as if the Immortal Elder could instantly defeat the Heaven-Swallowing Python.
After the Immortal Elder's momentum surged, a gray glow appeared on his palm, and with a flicker, he appeared behind the Heaven-Swallowing Python like a ghost, mixing with mist and cold fists, fiercely striking towards the Heaven-Swallowing Python.
Of course, the Immortal Elder also knew that if his fist fully hit the Heaven-Swallowing Python, while it could injure the python, it would also cripple himself because the Immortal Elder simply couldn't stop the negative qi such as demonic qi and evil qi from corroding the python's surface. Therefore, this Immortal Elder wrapped a thick layer of spiritual power around his fist and made his Dark Cloud Sky Transformation much more substantial than usual!
"Boom!"
And the Heaven-Swallowing Python's response was equally quick; sensing the mist and cold fist behind it, it immediately turned around and fiercely bit towards where the fist was, but the python was still a step too slow. Before it could open its jaws, the Immortal Elder had already slammed his spiritual power-laden and water-power-infused fist hard into the python's eyes, causing a grand noise to reverberate in the sky.
The gusts and ripples spread, and the Immortal Elder followed the principle of striking while the iron is hot, directly throwing a large amount of pure spiritual power at the Heaven-Swallowing Python.
And the Heaven-Swallowing Python, after being struck by the Immortal Elder, trembled and staggered backward, only stabilizing its form. In truth, the python didn't expect to be pushed back by a punch in the very first round!
If the Heaven-Swallowing Python was still a demon beast at this moment, it would instinctively flee because it couldn't defeat its opponent; why stay here and seek abuse?
But now the Heaven-Swallowing Python wasn't a demon beast anymore; it had been infected and became a wall creature. Thus, the python had lost all wisdom, any thinking ability, and instinct, only filled with slaughter in its mind. Hence, without fear, it immediately charged at the Immortal Elder after retreating!
Moreover, the Heaven-Swallowing Python seemed aware that pure spiritual power was harmful to it, quickly dodging like a flash!
"Be careful; this Heaven-Swallowing Python seems to possess a sense of danger. Otherwise, it wouldn't react to the harmful aspect of pure spiritual power, and you wouldn't want to get hurt here; that would be quite embarrassing!" The rescue sage frowningly observed the Python dodging the pure spiritual power attack, knowing wall creatures shouldn't have evasion awareness unless they're wounded and recognize harm, prompting avoidance. Without a touch to their body, they wouldn't know to dodge!
But this Heaven-Swallowing Python seemed different, as if it knew in advance that pure spiritual power was harmful and directly evaded!
"Hmm!" The Immortal Elder nodded upon hearing the Sect Leader's words; he too noticed this issue, as throughout the battle, he discovered the python seemingly aware of the harm of pure spiritual power, suggesting the python hadn't been converted for long?
Impossible, though. The Immortal Elder had seen those transformed into wall creatures, who immediately turned into true wall creatures upon infection, losing all consciousness and becoming crazed wall creatures!
The Immortal Elder carefully examined the charging Heaven-Swallowing Python for any remnants of consciousness, but disappointingly, the python's gaze revealed solely slaughter thoughts, lacking any other ideas!
No time to ponder further, the Immortal Elder faced the charging python, gray glow flashing on his hand again; then his body flickered, leaving a shadow behind while appearing once more behind the python!
Ye Tianfan watched the Immortal Elder's speed with awe; such velocity amazed him, knowing previously he could discern the Elder's movements, yet now, with only a shadow visible, the Elder's form vanished before Ye Tianfan, only reappearing behind the python, revealing the Elder's presence.
The Immortal Elder directly appeared behind the Heaven-Swallowing Python; though fast-paced, the python responded equally swiftly, turning around, mouth wide open towards the Elder, and Ye Tianfan saw the python spewing a black-purple stream from its mouth!
Ye Tianfan knew that the black-purple stream was undoubtedly demonic qi and evil qi, high-density negative qi, making him worry; if the elder was hit, it would be dire. Even if not struck directly, the widespread distribution of the stream might adversely affect the Elder!
Seeing the situation, the Immortal Elder covered his entire body with the Dark Cloud Sky Transformation, completely enveloped by gray energy; black-gray clouds surged over him, accompanied intermittent thunder!
To Ye Tianfan, the Elder now resembled a dark cloud, rolling thunder within. Ye Tianfan admired the brilliance of such a technique, blending water and thunder attributes perfectly without issue; truly exquisite!
With his body now consumed by the Dark Cloud Sky Transformation, the Immortal Elder seemed fearless, boldly leaning forward, charging directly at the black-purple stream!
Ye Tianfan slightly squinted his eyes, perplexed by the Elder's intent to dash into those negative energies, appearing akin to courting death!
