Jun Wu Xie encountered a few more flaming beasts on his way to the valley of flames.
However, these Class 2 and Class 6 flaming beasts had a hard time breaking through his defense since he had reached the ultimate level. He could withstand their sharp claws without dodging.
He was very satisfied with his body as flesh and blood splattered wherever his iron fists landed.
In just a few rounds, he had killed the flaming beasts with his fists and obtained their beast cores.
"This is the place!"
Jun Wu Xie looked down at the valley in front of him from above.
The valley was surrounded by tall volcanic rocks and there were many ravines on the ground. Flames flickered in the ravines as if unsolidified magma was flowing.
He observed carefully and found that the valley was about fifty meters horizontally. It was not very wide and was more than a thousand meters deep.
In the deepest part of the valley was a cliff that was hundreds of meters tall. It was straight and steep and there was a deep cave at the bottom of the cliff. There were broken weapons and human bones scattered in front of the cave.
The temperature here was extremely high. Even with his strong body, he felt a little hot and sweat seeped out of his skin.
"How strong is a Class 3 Direbeast? I have to test it before I can think of a way! "
Jun Wu Xie pondered over the entire situation within the valley in detail and discovered a problem.
The broken weapons and human bones at the entrance of the cave were most likely the members of the Hunter Mercenary Group who had come to kill the Flame Python in the past six months.
In the entire valley, there were clear traces of fighting on the ground and the rocks on both sides. However, at the entrance of the valley, these traces were almost invisible. There were no traces of fighting outside the valley.
"It seems that the Flame Python will not leave this valley. As long as I get out of the valley, it will not pursue me anymore …"
Jun Wu Xie came to a conclusion after sorting out the clues. However, why did the Flame Python not leave the valley?
After thinking about it, there was only one reason that could explain it.
There must be something that the Flame Python wanted to protect in the deep cave in the valley.
Was it the egg of the Flame Python or something else?
"Let's see how strong it is first!"
Jun Wu Xie locked onto the small mountain range between the cave and the mouth of the valley and simulated it in her mind. She then leapt down and stepped on some of the protruding rocks on the cliff face, and with a few leaps, she came into the valley.
As he went deeper into the valley, the temperature was getting higher and higher. However, he had an inexplicable feeling of coldness.
When he was only two or three hundred meters away from the cave, he felt that there was a pair of cold and terrifying eyes staring at him from the dark cave.
He was about to move forward when he heard the sound of metal rubbing against the ground in the cave. His heart suddenly tightened.
He saw a pair of eyes that looked like two pale yellow diamond-shaped gems staring at him in the dark cave, cold and bloodthirsty.
Whoosh!
Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath and looked at the pair of diamond-shaped eyes across the air. She stopped in the air and slowly moved forward.
At the same time, his muscles tightened. Vigorous Blood Qi surged in his blood vessels and meridians. His ultimate Acquired Realm strength had reached the peak.
Jun Wu Xie moved very slowly. He was about a hundred meters away from the nearest mountain behind him. If he moved any further, he would be out of the safe zone.
"Hiss!"
Just as he was waiting for the Flame Python to attack, the Flame Python finally rushed out of the cave as he wished.
Its roar shook the valley. Its body was as thick as a bucket and was about twenty meters long. It was covered with fiery red scales. It looked like it was made of iron and steel. It destroyed the rocks at the entrance of the cave. It was extremely violent.
It was like a fiery red thick iron whip. The moment it rushed out, it swung in the air.
A buzzing sound was heard.
The python's tail whipped the air and smashed towards him, creating a hurricane-like airflow.
Although Jun Wu Xie had been prepared for it, but she was still shocked by such a scene.
He instantly retreated, avoiding the python's tail attack. However, the residual Zhen Qi carried by the python's tail still impacted his body, sending him flying more than ten meters away. He felt a sharp pain in his heart. Looking down, he saw that his flesh and muscles had been shaken, and blood was seeping out.
"So powerful!"
Jun Wu Xie's heart sank. He knew that ferocious beasts above the third rank were extremely powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so terrifying.
His body was as strong as a low-grade one star spirit weapon. How could it be cracked by the residual Zhen Qi?
Fortunately, he had broken through to the Limiteer realm. If he hadn't broken through to the Quasi-Spiritual level, he would have definitely died here.
Without any hesitation, he turned around and ran towards the small mountain. He used the flexibility of his small body to block the attack of the Flame Python and buy himself time to escape from the valley.
At the same time, the Flame Python rushed up after missing its attack. It was so fast that Jun Wu Xie was shocked. It was right behind him.
The twenty-meter long python's body wrapped around him. The violent Zhen Qi almost made him lose his balance.
Jun Wu Xie saw the opportunity and leaped up, stepping on the coiling python's body with the tip of her foot, she rushed out again.
Seeing that its prey had escaped again, the Flame Python roared and chased after him, wanting to swallow him whole.
Jun Wu Xie was shocked. At the critical moment, he turned in the air and narrowly avoided it. After landing, he rushed to the back of the mountain like lightning.
Boom!
The huge body of the Flame Python hit the mountain and made it shake. The mountain rocks cracked and volcanic ash flew high into the air.
Jun Wu Xie ran two hundred meters at his fastest speed and rushed to the back of the second small mountain.
Along the way, he relied on the mountain rocks to rush out of the valley.
The Flame Python suddenly stopped at the entrance of the valley. Its pale yellow diamond-shaped pupils stared at him coldly for a moment before it turned around and left.
Whoosh!
Jun Wu Xie sat on the ground. His whole body was soaked in sweat.
In that short period of time, he had consumed a lot of energy. He felt a little weak.
"This guy is too strong. I have to think about how to deal with it …"
After resting for a while, Jun Wu Xie left the entrance of the valley. He found a high place and used the rocks as cover. He carefully observed the environment inside and outside the valley to see if there was anything he could use.
He had to kill the Flame Python. Otherwise, he would not be able to get the reward. Without the resources to reach the Innate Realm, he would not be able to fight against Xiao Xu.
But, the difficulty was too high!
He thought hard for a few hours. Seeing that the sun was setting in the west and it was almost dusk, he finally had a preliminary idea in his heart.
But, in order to successfully implement it, there was still a crucial part that he did not have at the moment.
"If only there were other mercenary groups that accepted this mission. I might be able to make use of it …"
Jun Wu Xie could not help but frown. His eyes fell on the top of the cliff where the cave was located.
"Hmm? What's that sound? "
His ears moved slightly. He immediately withdrew his thoughts from the cliff and turned to look in the direction of the valley entrance.
"This is … the sound of horse hooves?"
He almost suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. There was actually the sound of horse hooves?
The sound of horse hooves was very rapid and was getting closer.
After a moment, a person and a horse appeared in his line of sight.
It was a snow-white Thousand Spirit Horse. It could travel a thousand miles in a day. True Qi was flowing around its hooves. A woman in white armor and a silver spear was riding on it. She looked valiant and heroic. At this moment, she had already entered the valley of flames.
The woman's body was wrapped in white armor. Her exquisite and perfect curves were outlined. But, she was a little far away and her facial features could not be seen clearly.
"Could it be that she also accepted this mission to kill the Flame Python?"
Jun Wu Xie's heart sank. This woman came alone. She must be very confident. If she really killed the Flame Python, he would have no chance!
