If Zhang Heng encountered this giant wave before his trip to Yonaguni Island, he would have no other way to deal with it other than retreating. Now, he had mastered the ability to control water. Although he might not be as powerful as a deep-sea overlord like Jörmungandr, he had no problem dealing with this kind of situation.
Zhang Heng used his ability to control water to split the giant wave in half. It brushed past his body and hit the trees and plants behind him. As a result, the blooming flowers were destroyed by the oncoming giant wave. However, Zhang Heng, who was standing in front of the giant wave, was safe and sound.
The black giant python was a little surprised. It didn't seem to understand how the human in front of it managed to split the giant wave. However, this did not stop it from attacking.
After falling into the water, the black giant python did not stay in the water for long. It immediately swam to the shore. Although its huge body weakened its flexibility to a certain extent, its speed in a straight line was greatly enhanced. When it moved, it was like a high-speed train, and it didn't need to plan its path. Wherever it passed, be it coral or reefs, nothing could stop it. They were ruthlessly crushed.
At this moment, it was like a moving black disaster!
Zhang Heng took a few steps back, but he wasn't intimidated by his opponent's aura. After all, after realizing who his opponent was, Zhang Heng was already mentally prepared. For now, other than the fact that the Paris Arrow didn't work, the rest of the situation didn't exceed Zhang Heng's expectations. He just wanted to lure Jörmungandr out of the water and onto land as soon as possible.
Since ordinary arrows could not penetrate the scales of the black giant python, Zhang Heng temporarily put away the Pestilence Bone Bow and drew out the Shrouded Sheath from his waist. This was also the weapon he could rely on the most in the upcoming battle.
In the blink of an eye, the black giant python's head had already reached the shore. Then, its huge body came out of the water. When its abdomen touched the ground, the entire island shook.
Zhang Heng seemed to have lost his balance due to the sudden earthquake. Of course, the black python would not let go of this rare opportunity. As soon as its body was halfway to the shore, it couldn't wait to stretch its head out.
Generally, when a python hunted, it would first approach its prey, open its mouth to bite the target, and then quickly wrap its body around the target, squeezing and cutting off the target's blood supply, causing the target's brain and heart to be deprived of blood, so that the target would quickly lose the ability to resist, and then slowly swallow the target.
However, Jörmungandr's body was too big. When it was dealing with sperm whales at the bottom of the sea, it might be able to use this method to hunt them. But when it came to Zhang Heng, it was unrealistic for it to entangle him with its body. However, this did not cause it any trouble. Jörmungandr did not even bother to adjust its posture. It simply charged at Zhang Heng, who had lost his balance.
Considering its astonishing weight, if Zhang Heng was hit by it, even if he did not turn into minced meat, he would probably lose a few of his bones.
However, the next moment, the black python found that Zhang Heng had suddenly disappeared in front of it.
Its head crashed into a cluster of flowers. Not only did it destroy the flowers and plants growing inside, but it also broke a few nearby trees. However, the human that provoked it was nowhere to be seen.
Jörmungandr turned its yellow pupils and used the cheek socket between its nostrils and eyes to lock onto Zhang Heng's position. To its surprise, its target, who was still a little unstable not long ago, managed to dodge its attack the moment it pounced on him.
Jörmungandr's movement just now was not only fast enough, but considering the size of its head, Zhang Heng would need to move at least five meters to get out of its attack range.
This meant that not only did Zhang Heng have excellent explosive power, but he must have also regained control of his body. The black python realized that it was fooled by this rude human again, and the anger in its eyes burned even more fiercely. Without hesitation, it chased after Zhang Heng again.
On the other side, Zhang Heng was unprecedentedly calm after entering combat mode. Although he still had time to complete at least one counterattack when he dodged the pounce, Zhang Heng was not in a hurry to do it because Jörmungandr's body had not completely left the sea and climbed to land.
Once the situation was unfavorable for the black python, it was likely to turn around and swim back to the sea, looking for a trench crack to hide. By then, it would be difficult for Zhang Heng to find it again. In that case, he would not be able to solve the problem of the tunnel circulation and return to the surface. Therefore, Zhang Heng still hoped to lure Jörmungandr to the surface as much as possible. It would be best if it was as far away from the sea as possible. So far, his actions were mainly based on dodging.
A man and a snake went back to the garden, but this time, the flowers and plants along the way were destroyed. Almost all the plants in the black python's path were destroyed and crushed. The garden was no longer as peaceful as it used to be.
But after chasing for a while, Jörmungandr suddenly stopped for some reason. It looked back at the path it had crawled through, and a rare look of anxiety appeared in its eyes. At this moment, it was like a child who suddenly realized that he had done something wrong.
Zhang Heng didn't know why the giant python in front of him cared so much about the garden, but it seemed to be hesitating whether to continue the chase or not. Zhang Heng then calculated and found that the two were about 500 meters away from the reef beach. Of course, this distance wasn't safe, but at least Jörmungandr wouldn't be able to turn around and return to the sea.
In order to avoid any more accidents, Zhang Heng finally stopped.
A man and a snake fell into a stalemate, and this time, Zhang Heng moved first.
Obviously, Jörmungandr did not expect that its target would take the initiative to attack it. However, this was exactly what it wanted. It subconsciously wanted to sweep its tail at Zhang Heng, but when it saw the flowers and trees around him, it abruptly stopped its movement.
In the end, it decided to use its head to face Zhang Heng. It swung its head and smashed at Zhang Heng again. This time, Jörmungandr finally saw how Zhang Heng avoided its killer move. The latter's body suddenly switched from high-speed movement to a stationary state, and then he exerted force in the opposite direction. In just a second, he completed the change of direction.
The whole process did not waste any time. It achieved a perfect transition from movement to stillness and back to movement. This also meant that Zhang Heng's control of the muscles all over his body had reached a state where he could do whatever he wanted.
