Ye Ningze's eyes flashed with a cold glint.
A cruel smile tugged at the corner of his lips.
The black saber in his hand repeatedly slashed down onto the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python's body.
The saber energy unleashed by the black saber was as if nothing could resist it, tearing apart the scales that the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python prided itself on, leaving terrifying wounds all over its body.
However, the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python's recovery ability was too formidable; all these saber attacks had not managed to heavily injure it.
Ye Ningze couldn't help but feel a trace of anxiety.
He understood that although he and the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python were fighting back and forth, and he seemed to have a slight advantage, he was facing it in his full state.
This Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python had already fought a large group of martial artists from the First Academy and sustained considerable injuries!
If he couldn't deal with the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python and let it escape, once it recovered its full strength, he would definitely not be able to kill it again!
In that case, how could he earn points and achieve first place in this trial?!
A shadow of gloom spread across Ye Ningze's face.
Just then, Ye Ningze suddenly saw a slender, sharp tail protrude abruptly from the tail of the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python in the distance.
The tip of that tail was like an incomparably sharp bone spur.
Under the sunlight, it emitted a faint golden radiance, appearing extremely brilliant and dazzling!
*Swish!*
This sharp golden tail directly cut through the space and appeared before Ye Ningze.
Ye Ningze immediately felt an immensely strong killing intent envelop him.
*Not good!*
Ye Ningze cursed inwardly and quickly urged his true essence, pushing his aura to its limit.
Ye Ningze's figure retreated explosively, then he swiftly flew away.
That sharp golden tail instantly pursued him, striking fiercely towards Ye Ningze's back.
Seeing this, Ye Ningze's expression drastically changed.
He hadn't expected the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python to have such a move.
This segment of the tail that extended from its broken tail was like an extremely sharp blade.
This tail was indestructible; if it were to strike Ye Ningze, he felt his physical body would be directly cleaved, and even his soul would be torn apart!
At this moment, Ye Ningze's apprehension reached its peak.
However.
He was, after all, a genuine martial artist, his reactions were incredibly swift. While retreating explosively, he also fiercely swung the black saber in his hand, transforming into countless saber energies, slashing fiercely towards this sharp tail.
That sharp tail collided fiercely with the saber energy.
With a deafening roar, he was then blasted flying back by that immense force.
However, Ye Ningze landed steadily on the ground. He stood on the ground, a hint of pallor on his face.
This exchange had injured Ye Ningze, his blood and qi churned within him, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
His body trembled slightly, a trace of fresh blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and his face was as pale as paper.
He hadn't expected the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python to be so powerful. Even his black saber, empowered by flame energy, couldn't directly sever the tail that the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python had suddenly extended. His body suffered some backlash, sustaining minor injuries!
Ye Ningze couldn't help but sigh softly, "As expected of a high-tier ferocious beast, to possess such means."
Although Ye Ningze's body suffered backlash, it did not endanger his life.
This level of damage was nothing to Ye Ningze.
After Ye Ningze awakened in this era, he knew that if he wanted to become stronger, if he truly wanted to make a name for himself, he had to take risks, countless risks!
At this moment, Ye Ningze understood: he had to kill this Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python!
Ye Ningze instinctively tightened his grip on the black saber, the flame energy infused into the saber intensifying further. The saber spun rapidly in his hand, flying up and down, and sharp black lights flickered one after another.
At this moment, the saber in his hand was like a bottomless pit, madly devouring the energy in this space, pouring it ceaselessly into the black saber held tightly in his hand.
The saber light flashing from the black saber was now like a ferocious black serpent, continuously absorbing the surrounding energy.
Gradually.
Ye Ningze's body returned to normal, his internal injuries healed, and he recovered his peak combat strength.
However, the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python did not seem to intend to give up.
*Roar!*
A heaven-shattering roar echoed, and the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python launched another attack.
It opened its mouth and inhaled, and a fist-sized round bead appeared in its mouth. Then, an immensely vast energy surged into its mouth.
Seeing this, Ye Ningze frowned slightly.
He could clearly feel a very powerful energy emanating from this round bead. This energy was filled with dominance and destruction, as if it could destroy everything. His heart tightened slightly.
This Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python actually knew how to absorb energy and then expel it?!
This was a highly advanced technique. Even elite martial artists among humans found it difficult to achieve such a level of energy manipulation; one had to break through the elite martial artist level to master this method proficiently.
Although the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python was powerful, he was not to be trifled with!
The Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python was already injured. If it were in its prime, even he would have to retreat respectfully, but now that it was no longer at its peak, why should he fear it?!
Ye Ningze tightly gripped the black saber, flames tightly entwined around him and the black saber.
Since you intend to expel an energy ball, then I shall cleave apart the energy ball you expel!
Ye Ningze roared inwardly, and then he pushed his power to its absolute limit, unleashing his most powerful move, the "Black Dragon Mountain Breaker Slash"!
Ye Ningze exerted almost all his strength; his power and speed both reached their limits!
This move by Ye Ningze was an unparalleled saber technique, the Mountain Breaker Slash!
The moment the saber's momentum erupted, a massive crack appeared in front of Ye Ningze.
With a single saber strike, he directly slashed at the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python's massive tail.
*Boom boom boom!*
Huge explosive sounds erupted.
Ye Ningze and the Golden Scaled Venomous Dragon Python were both sent flying backward, then slammed heavily onto the ground.
