Seeing this, Ling Tian smiled.
"You thought only your flying swords could dodge, but my talismans can too. Come on, let's see if your flying swords are faster or my talismans are more agile!"
And so, a chase ensued in mid-air. Three flying swords darted desperately through the sky, pursued by three glowing orbs that clung to them like leeches.
After more than 30 seconds, the three glowing orbs suddenly exploded in mid-air. The sound of the explosion startled Yun Zhongxiao, but soon, his face lit up with ecstasy!
Talismans were inherently fragile and had limited energy capacity. After flying for so long, these three King Kong Talismans could no longer sustain their energy and exploded in mid-air!
"Haha, brat, your death day has come!"
Yun Zhongxiao quickly controlled his flying swords, turning their tips to attack Ling Tian. However, just then, Ling Tian produced three more white glowing orbs and flicked them from his hand!
Thus, the chase between the flying swords and the glowing orbs began again. Yun Zhongxiao gritted his teeth and held on for half a minute. Finally, the three fist-sized white glowing orbs exploded once more.
"Haha, brat, aren't you very arrogant? I want to see how many talismans you have!"
"Do you really want to see? Alright, I can satisfy you!" Ling Tian said mockingly after hearing the other's words.
Immediately, Ling Tian reached into his pocket and produced two books of King Kong Talismans from each hand.
"See? I have this many. Do you want to try them!"
Yun Zhongxiao's eyes widened, almost popping out of their sockets. As a man of the martial world, he knew that talismans were very precious.
Even the big shots of Mount Longhu considered it extravagant to carry a few talismans each. Yet, this fellow in front of him was pulling out four books of talismans at once. Were his talismans printed? How incredibly wealthy must one be to have so many talismans!
Although flying swords were not disposable items like talismans, controlling them consumed a great deal of spiritual and internal energy. Especially for Yun Zhongxiao, who was controlling three flying swords simultaneously, the consumption was terrifying.
His opponent, let alone using another talisman, would likely collapse from exhaustion if the glowing orbs continued to chase his flying swords for a few more minutes! He had to end this quickly!
With this thought, Yun Zhongxiao immediately controlled his flying swords and attacked Ling Tian again. Ling Tian sneered, and three white glowing orbs flew out, directly intercepting the flying swords.
However, suddenly, the three flying swords formed a straight line, head to tail, and flew directly towards Ling Tian.
Ling Tian was taken aback and quickly controlled three talismans to intercept the flying swords' path.
A cold smile appeared on Yun Zhongxiao's lips. This was his little trick. The three flying swords formed a straight line, and the three glowing orbs opposite them were also almost together!
Now was the time!
The foremost flying sword suddenly flew directly towards the three glowing orbs and then slammed heavily into them!
In an instant, the three glowing orbs were detonated. Yun Zhongxiao endured the feeling of his head being hit by a sledgehammer and quickly recovered. He controlled the other two flying swords and flew directly towards Ling Tian through the light screen generated by the explosion.
At the same time, Yun Zhongxiao raised his hand, and the precious sword he held also shot out fiercely!
This was Yun Zhongxiao's killing move. Everyone thought he could only control three flying swords, but in reality, through arduous training, Yun Zhongxiao had long been able to control four flying swords.
He had kept this a secret precisely to use it as his trump card!
This time, the remaining three flying swords had their speed pushed to the maximum. The three swords, like three streaks of white light, fiercely pierced towards Ling Tian.
A cold smile also appeared on Ling Tian's lips. He directly took out a book of King Kong Talismans and threw it fiercely at his feet.
"Boom!"
A fierce explosion and a dazzling white light enveloped Ling Tian. The next moment, the three flying swords slammed hard into the white light.
"Clang, clang, clang!"
Yun Zhongxiao felt a severe blow to his brain, and his three flying swords briefly lost control, falling to the ground.
Just then, from the grass behind Yun Zhongxiao, a head the size of a tree emerged.
It was a king cobra about 10 meters long and as thick as an adult's calf!
In nature, the largest and longest king cobra discovered by humans was no more than 6.5 meters. However, this king cobra, after being subdued by Ling Tian and nurtured daily by abundant spiritual energy in the Beast Taming Garden of the Spirit Realm, had grown to a size approaching that of a python!
This king cobra, which Ling Tian had named Venomous Dragon, had the two distinctive large scales behind its eyes faintly turning golden.
The giant snake had been secretly summoned by Ling Tian and had been hiding in the bushes, waiting for an opportunity to attack.
Meanwhile, Yun Zhongxiao was focused entirely on Ling Tian and controlling his three flying swords, leaving him no time to pay attention to any surrounding dangers.
Just as he was suffering a heavy blow, Venomous Dragon lunged out, biting Yun Zhongxiao at the root of his thigh. The venom was instantly injected into his body through its fangs!
Then, Venomous Dragon flicked its tail, and its massive tail whipped fiercely at Yun Zhongxiao's lower back like a whip.
Yun Zhongxiao screamed and stumbled forward a couple of steps before collapsing to the ground!
He felt an intense pain from the root of his left thigh, and this excruciating pain quickly spread outwards. Soon, his entire left leg became immobile from the pain, and his body below the waist seemed to have lost all control!
It was important to remember that the body of this Venomous Dragon was originally a king cobra. King cobra venom was a complex toxin, a mixture of neurotoxins, hemotoxins, and cytotoxins.
The mortality rate for being bitten by such a snake was very high, and there was no suitable antivenom. Even if one survived the bite after timely treatment, the bitten area would usually fester and result in permanent disability.
Furthermore, the danger of a king cobra lay in the large amount of venom it injected.
And Ling Tian's king cobra, having been nurtured in the Spirit Realm for so long, had already evolved. Its venom far surpassed that of an ordinary king cobra.
One minute later, Yun Zhongxiao's autonomic nervous system was paralyzed, his breathing stopped, and his lungs could no longer contract normally. Another minute later, his heart completely ceased to beat.
Ling Tian walked forward, his thoughts flashing, and recalled the king cobra back to the Beast Taming Garden of the Spirit Realm. He then picked up Yun Zhongxiao's swords and unceremoniously collected them into the Spirit Realm as well!
