Chapter 272 The spirit bone quality has risen again

Soon, the three came a hundred meters above a dense mangrove forest. Looking down, the lush canopy was tilting in an unnatural direction, as if it was being tilted by a huge object, revealing a gap, and a thick, coiled black body could be seen vaguely. The fine scales were like polished obsidian in the sunlight, contrasting significantly with the surrounding lush green canopy and the oily green water.

"This is..." Looking at the section of the huge python body exposed below, it was visually estimated that two people would need to hug its tail end. Dugu Bo instantly recalled an extinct spirit beast that had been recorded in the books gifted by the Martial Spirit Hall and couldn't help but look surprised.

"Titan Python!?"

"With such a size, it should be. I really didn't expect that there would be one here." Lin Manshan couldn't help but sigh.

According to records, the Titan Python was a water-attribute power-type spirit beast without any poison. It was rumoured to possess a dragon bloodline, with an adult body length of up to 50 meters, making it the oldest, largest, and most powerful of the snake-type spirit beasts. However, because of its non-poisonous characteristics, it is very weak in the juvenile stage, just any crocodile can swallow it alive. Of course, this is not the main reason for its extinction. The real cause of its extinction is that the continent once had a sudden climate change, resulting in its fertility rate plummeting.

If you don't give birth, I won't give birth, and even if they do, they won't hatch out and become dead eggs. Then, there was a decline.

The survival of the fittest is nothing more than that.

"All I know now is that this Titan Python's spirit ring is extremely suitable for Yan'er." Dugu Bo gave a slight nod, "The Titan Python likes warmth and heat, looking at its condition, it should have come out to bask in the sun and is sleeping soundly!"

"This is a good opportunity."

Saying that, he turned his head to look at Lin Manshan, "Man Er, I'll control it, you go down and feed it a pill."

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Dugu Yan, pointing his finger in one direction, "Yan'er, you go to the forest over there and hide first, later on, I will come with Man'er to meet up with you."

"Good!" Dugu Yan nodded and turned around to fly towards the direction pointed out by Dugu Bo.

In a few moments, seeing Dugu Yan flying away, Dugu Bo immediately released his martial soul and spirit skill, "Eighth spirit skill, Time Freeze." Almost instantly, the floating water, swaying branches and leaves below all came to a standstill.

Seeing this, Lin Manshan didn't hesitate to use the Vanishing Art, and with a streak of flashes, his figure descended into the mangrove forest, and then quickly flew over the Titan Python's head. When looking down, the black Titan Python was closing its eyes tightly, its huge head with two diamond-shaped horns was lying in the centre of the coiled python's body, and its fine scales were flashing with black light under the sunlight, which reflected the environment nearby.

'With this size, only this swampy area where a large number of crocodiles, fish, and other spirit beasts live can support this guy.' Lin Manshan inwardly sighed.

In between his thoughts, his body came to the python's jaws in a flash, stretched out his hand, he exerted all his strength to slowly pry it apart.

'Damn! The strength of this jawbone; its bite force should be absolutely terrifying. If it wasn't for the fact that it was controlled in its sleeping state and its flesh was still in a relaxed state, I really wouldn't have been able to open it.'

'This is still just 90,000 years of cultivation, if it's 100,000 years' His countenance changed slightly, he quickly took out a pill from his spirit tool, and with a flick of his fingertips, the pill instantly went down the gap between the python's jaws and slipped straight into its throat and slid down quickly.

'The mouth is so big, but it is quite convenient for me' Between his thoughts, he turned around and flew away in a flash.

Seeing Lin Manshan come out and fly towards Dugu Yan's position, Dugu Bo immediately withdrew his spirit skill and quickly followed.

Right after the two left, the Titan Python, which seemed to be in a dream, suddenly felt a majestic energy rising from the lower part of its body, rushing to its entire body like a wild horse out of control, causing it to be very uncomfortable. The big copper bell-sized eyes immediately opened, although it didn't figure out the situation, but it could perfectly perceive a majestic and pure energy constantly emerging within its body is beneficial and harmless to it, and must be digested as soon as possible.

Without much hesitation, it directly concentrated on digesting it in place.

Time passed little by little, only after five days, a peculiar energy fluctuation swept through the water's surface, and the Titan Python's huge eyes opened along with it.

When it wanted to raise its head and roar, its open mouth suddenly paused, and in the next second, "Boom!" A heavy blow struck the top of its head, its vision shifted sharply, and its lower jaw went straight into the dirt, it subconsciously opened its mouth and let out a painful grunt, and in its spare light, it only saw a blade of green light flashing by.

"Hiss" Fierce hissing sounded out, the huge body twisting madly, and blood flowed from the right eyeball.

The next moment, "Boom!" Another heavy blow smashed on the top of the head, and the head that had just been raised once again fell down.

The human breath transmitted from the tip of its tongue, as well as the intense pain coming from its head and eye sockets, made it instantly understand the situation at hand. It hurriedly flung its head frantically, while its coiled body quickly twisted and swam towards the swampy area outside the mangrove. However, just before it moved less than a meter.

"Poof!" The head received another heavy blow, and the entire head was once again smashed into the sludge.

"Damnable human!" The attacking human obviously knew it extremely well, making full use of the blind spot in its vision created by its huge body. Although it could sense one, it couldn't turn around, the frequency of the other party's attack was too fast, and the power was completely beyond its imagination.

In the middle of its thoughts, "Boom!" Another strike struck.

Its brain buzzed.

Immediately after, "Puh-hiss." A sharp pain came from the left eyeball. When the head was about to raise, "Boom!" Another blow smashed over, the force was as strong as a huge mountain smashing down from a high altitude, pain, it was too painful, so painful that it didn't even have a chance to resist.

There was no doubt that at least the enemy above its head had a strength above it. It could sense that the other party was only attacking it with a fist. If the strength wasn't above it, how could that person suppress it so much that it couldn't even raise its head with just a fist?

It is now a hundred thousand-year-old spirit beast.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang," Dugu Bo, who was currently using the second stage of his Martial Soul True Body, slammed down punch after punch like rain, and the water around him vibrated violently. The crazy twisting python body below him swept away the trees, but its head was deadlocked in the puddle of water by the fists.

"Limit Break, Ominous Moon Extreme Shadow!" A blade light flashed through, stabbing straight into the lower part of the Titan Python's body where its heart is located.

"Hiss!" The Titan Python's body instantly twisted even more violently, but it was limited to that.

Looking around, the eyes, snout, and mouth area were already bleeding profusely, and the entire head was breathlessly embedded in the mud pit, with the colour of blood staining the water.

"Boom!" Another punch and the writhing body became visibly sluggish.

"Almost there." Lin Manshan immediately spoke out.

"Hmm." Dugu Bo nodded and turned towards Dugu Yan, who was watching the battle from afar and slightly raised his hand.

The latter understood and quickly flew over, and Lin Manshan smoothly handed over a spear.  

Dugu Yan took it, and without hesitation, flew forward and positioned the tip of the spear at the eye socket, stabbing it down diagonally and swiftly, penetrating straight into the skull. Subsequently, she stirred it with great force, the Titan Python's tail was immediately twisted and trembled again, but it only lasted for a few breaths and then stopped moving.

A blood-coloured spirit ring then slowly rose up.

Seeing this, Lin Manshan immediately mobilized his soul power and transmitted it into Dugu Yan's body, and said, "Yan'er, go."

'Hm." Dugu Yan nodded and flew to the side to sit at the base of a fallen shrub and began to pull on the spirit ring.

Only then did Dugu Bo stretch his neck to look at the Titan Python's corpse, "Where's the spirit bone? I can't find it!"

"It's a torso bone, it's still in the Titan Python's body, it's not too late to collect it when Yan'er's breath stabilizes." Lin Manshan nudged his head slightly towards the corpse, honestly, he felt that this Titan Python's death was aggravating, and what they had done was indeed a bit brutal. But there was nothing that could be done, if Dugu Bo was allowed to use poison, once it spread, the spirit beasts in this swamp would probably die out.

After thinking about it, they can only rely on the fist to subdue it.

Of course, the premise of everything was that Dugu Bo's strength at the moment was indeed enough to topple it. Moreover, the Titan Python's means of attack was indeed relatively singular. By virtue of the super strong bite force to bite, and then rely on the strong and powerful body to do a death roll, the prey will be wrapped until suffocation, wrapped until the whole body bones are broken, this is the Titan Python's most habitual and strongest means of hunting. As for the water attribute ability, it all relied on a mouth to spray, therefore, the best way to hunt and kill was to attack and suppress the head at the first opportunity.

And the result was obvious, they succeeded.

"Torso bone!"

Dugu Bo instantly brightened up, then his lips were tugged with a smile, and he nodded his head repeatedly, "Not bad, not bad!"

"Well, not bad indeed." Lin Manshan also nodded with a smile, then he looked down at the blood stains spreading on the water and added, "Grandpa, although this is the territory of the Titan Python, there will not be any other Spirit Beasts coming in a short period of time. But with Yan'er's current cultivation level, I'm afraid it will take a long time to absorb the spirit ring. When the blood here drifts away, I'm afraid it will attract some spirit beasts."

"There's no harm in that, there's nothing to be afraid of with me guarding here." Dugu Bo said confidently.

"It's better to take care of it, if there are more of them around, the battle might affect Yan'er." Lin Manshan said, taking out a few vials of potion from his spirit tool and quickly pouring it on the Titan Python's wound, visible to the naked eye, the blood solidified into clumps. Seeing this, Lin Manshan quickly flew to the surrounding bloodstains, sprinkled it around, and only returned when the blood became solidified and sank under the water.

And right at this moment, when he looked at it, a section of the back of the Titan Python's corpse suddenly bulged and rose.

"Eh?" Lin Manshan's gaze instantly narrowed.

"This is?" Dugu Bo looked surprised, that section, was the part of the carapace where the spirit bone was produced.

"Poof!" Under their watchful eyes, that area of scales suddenly burst open, followed by a hissing crack, and the more it burst open, the more it widened.

Not long after, a deep blue light appeared, and a long bar-shaped spirit bone slowly rose up.

The next moment, with a whoosh, it turned into a stream of light and merged into the spine part behind Dugu Yan.

"It can still be done like this?" Dugu Bo was taken aback.

In the original, it seemed to happen the same way when Tang San absorbed the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's torso bone. Lin Manshan was also a bit unsure, and could only say, "Perhaps this is one of the many ways, the torso bone will be drawn and absorbed along with the spirit ring in a single stroke."

"In any case, I didn't sense too many remnants of the Titan Python's soul in it, so it should be fine."

"That's good." Dugu Bo was instantly relieved, then he turned his head, "Since the spirit bone has already flown out on its own, Man'er, while the corpse is still fresh, you should also start."

Lin Manshan shook his head, "There is no hurry, let's wait a little longer, wait until Yan'er's breath has completely stabilized and there are no other abnormalities."

"Good." Dugu Bo nodded.

One hour later, Lin Manshan stretched out his Eight Spider Spear and stabbed it into the Titan Python's head.

Time passed little by little, and it was only after two hours that the scales on the Titan Python's body turned dark grey, only then did Lin Manshan take back the Eight Spider Spear, and his heart was filled with joy, 'The Eight Spider Spear's age has risen by about 10,000 years, and the other ones also have risen by about 5,000 years, as expected of the Titan Python, which is the largest of the serpentine spirit beasts, the life energy contained in its corpse is also extremely massive, cool! '

Between his thoughts, he walked over to Dugu Bo's side and sat down, greeted him and entered the state of cultivation.

A month later, Dugu Yan woke up quietly.

"How is it?" Dugu Bo immediately got up and inquired.

After absorbing for a month and having just woken up, Dugu Yan was still a bit confused, hearing this, she closed her eyes again, operating the Meridian Skill to feel it carefully, and then she sharply opened her eyes, her pretty face flushed, very excited and incredulous, shouting out in shock, "My cultivation has been raised by 6 levels!?"

"Seems like there's still a benefit to a spirit beast with a large body size, the spirit ring produced by it contains a lot of energy as well." Dugu Bo lamented.

"It should also be related to the torso bone." Lin Manshan smiled faintly.

"That's also true, among the six types of spirit bones, the torso bone is ranked the highest." Dugu Bo nodded in agreement, then turned his head to look at the dumbfounded Dugu Yan and smiled as he informed her about the torso bone being drawn and absorbed by her along with the spirit ring.

"Surprisingly, it can still be done like this?" Dugu Yan was also surprised.

"No matter what, we've been out for more than a month this time, so it's time to go back." Dugu Bo laughed.

"Hmm." Dugu Yan nodded.

Thus, the three of them packed up and flew off.
