Chapter 79: Run? Why Run

Chapter 79: Chapter 79: Run? Why Run

They all heard Ye Ming’s words, and their eyes widened in disbelief. They couldn’t believe what they were hearing!

Mid-Diamond Stage!

Didn’t that mean...!

That it was even stronger than the strongest among them, Ye Ming!

Then how were they supposed to hunt this Exotic Beast?!

This was insane!

Pan Xuechun’s face turned ashen as she watched.

’What do we do?!’

She had originally thought they could complete her family’s mission and bring back the poison gland.

She never expected to run into such a venomous creature!

Meanwhile, Ye Ming clenched his jaw.

Even though he now knew the giant snake’s strength, he still wanted to try and fight.

They could go back to the family and get stronger experts, but that would take too much time.

If something else went wrong, or if the giant snake escaped...

...finding it again wouldn’t be so easy!

’What should I do?!’

In an instant, he made his decision!

Immediately!

He took a step forward!

The ground beneath his feet cracked!

Ye Ming leaped onto a tree trunk!

Then, with a series of light taps of his feet...

...he shot up the tree!

In a flash...

...he was above the giant snake’s head!

WHOOSH!

The giant snake sensed Ye Ming’s movement!

It immediately raised its head and spat a ball of black poisonous mist at him!

Ye Ming dodged in a flash!

He evaded it completely!

Then, he was right above the giant snake’s head!

He targeted its triangular head!

He clasped his hands together!

Forming a hammer fist!

He smashed it straight down!

The punch broke the sound barrier!

For a moment, it was as if space itself was twisting!

THUD!

The hammer fist slammed viciously onto the giant snake’s head!

AOOO!

With a shriek...

...the giant snake crashed toward the ground!

RUSTLE! RUSTLE!

CRACK! CRACK!

CRASH!

In an instant, all sorts of sounds erupted!

The powerful, heavy blow struck the giant snake’s massive body, causing it to snap branches as it fell!

It smashed into the ground!

It writhed and howled in pain!

"Yeah!"

"As expected of Lord Ye Ming!"

"He’s so strong! Just incredible!"

...

When Pan Xuechun and the others saw this, smiles spread across their faces. They were overjoyed!

After all, the giant snake had been giving them a feeling of overwhelming pressure!

A casual puff of its poisonous mist could corrode one of their people!

But now!

With a single punch!

Ye Ming had dealt it a blow!

He had knocked it right out of the tree!

It was as if that hammer fist had smashed away the dark cloud hanging over their hearts.

The feeling was exhilarating!

Meanwhile, hearing the cheers from the distance, Ye Ming was reeling internally.

He looked at his arm.

That hammer fist just now...

...had concentrated all of his strength!

It was, without a doubt, an overwhelmingly powerful attack!

But!

Even with a strike like that...

...forget about seriously injuring the giant snake!

He hadn’t even broken through its Scale Armor!

As for him...

...the moment his arm made contact with the giant snake’s Scale Armor, it had nearly snapped!

Now, his muscles were torn, and blood was streaming out.

’It seems the gap in our strength really isn’t small at all!’

ROAR!

A heaven-shaking roar suddenly erupted from nearby!

The shriek was so powerful that everyone felt their bodies start to resonate with it.

The hairs on their arms stood on end as they turned to look at the giant snake.

The giant snake!

It had already recovered!

Its fifty-to-sixty-meter-long body was now coiled up.

Its head was raised high!

It looked absolutely enormous!

Its already crimson eyes now glowed with a murderous, blood-red light!

Ye Ming’s heart trembled as he watched.

’It seems...’

’...my attack just now really pissed this thing off!’

WHOOSH!

The next moment!

The snake’s mouth opened!

A cloud of poison mist shot toward Ye Ming!

Ye Ming tapped his feet rapidly, quickly dodging!

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

The relentless clouds of poison mist left Ye Ming struggling to defend himself.

Gradually...

...as he dodged!

...he sensed something was wrong!

’What a clever tactic!’

’This giant snake is so cunning!’

Even though he had dodged the poison mist clouds...

...the concentration of toxic gas in the air was now too high!

Even his body was starting to go numb!

He was slowing down!

’Crap!’

The next moment!

The sound of a sonic boom ripped through the air!

Ye Ming looked into the distance!

He saw a thick snake tail whipping toward him!

It moved so fast it left only an afterimage in the air!

’It’s over!’

’I can’t dodge this!’

Instinctively, he crossed his arms in front of his chest!

Instantly!

He was sent flying!

The impact...

...felt like being hit by a train!

Ye Ming immediately spat out a mouthful of blood!

His internal organs all felt like they’d been displaced.

It was only then that Ye Ming truly understood.

’The gap between me and this giant snake is just too big!’

’I was being too naive before!’

THUD!

The next moment!

...with a violent whistling sound in his ears...

...he smashed straight through several large trees!

Then, he was embedded in the trunk of another giant tree!

A stream of blood shot from his mouth!

Pan Xuechun: "..."

The others: "..."

In an instant, their pupils contracted!

This!

They had watched, wide-eyed, as Ye Ming was slammed into the tree!

In that moment, they felt as if their hearts, just like Ye Ming, had been smashed into an abyss by the giant snake.

’This is bad, this is really bad!’

Ye Ming was the strongest one among them!

But even he...

...couldn’t withstand a single blow from the giant snake!

And they wanted to take back the giant snake’s poison gland?

It was pure fantasy!

’Run!’

’Run now! Don’t hesitate for a second!’

The thought instantly rose in their minds!

They turned and bolted!

The giant snake watched them, understanding their intent.

It prepared to go after them.

Pan Xuechun and the others were also fleeing.

She ran past Ye Yunyi.

Then she saw that Ye Yunyi was just standing there, stunned.

She was baffled.

’What is this guy doing?!’

’Has he lost his mind?!’

’Does he have a death wish?!’

’Why isn’t he running?!’

’Huh?!’

In a single breath, she was already far away.

She glanced back!

And saw Ye Yunyi still standing there!

She frowned.

’That guy!’

The next moment!

The giant snake noticed Ye Yunyi and immediately spat a cloud of poison mist at him!

Ye Yunyi remained standing where he was.

He was then enveloped by the poisonous mist.

’It’s over!’

Pan Xuechun watched. ’This guy’s a goner.’

’The giant snake is coming for us next!’

They were just about to speed up again!

But then they saw the giant snake freeze.

Its serpentine eyes were fixed on the gradually dissipating poisonous mist.

Pan Xuechun and the others also stared at the mist!

And then, the mist cleared!

From within, a figure slowly walked out!

It was none other than Ye Yunyi!

He looked completely unharmed!

And in his hand, he carried a Battle Axe as tall as a man!

’He’s okay?!’

’He’s actually okay?!’

’How is that possible?!’

Pan Xuechun and the others stared at Ye Yunyi with expressions of utter disbelief, their feet frozen in place.

They watched as...

Ye Yunyi walked slowly toward the giant snake, one step at a time.

He slowly lowered the Battle Axe in his hand.

The blade of the axe glinted with a cold, sharp light!
