Chapter 54: The Earth Python

  Advancement, just like human cultivation advancement, magical beasts also advance, it's just that this is extremely difficult. Take the Purple Thunder Leopard for example, advancing to 4th level before maturity is very easy, and after reaching adulthood, they directly become 4th-level magical beasts. However, wanting to advance to a 5th-level magical beast is extremely, extremely difficult.

  And as for advancing from a 3rd-tier magical beast to a 4th-tier, which is a major qualitative leap, it's even more difficult. Therefore, the strength of a magical beast is almost entirely limited by its own bloodline. The Purple Thunder Leopard is a 4th-tier magical beast, and that's all it will ever be. To advance to become a 5th-tier magical beast, not only are extremely harsh requirements necessary, but innate talent is also a necessary condition.

  The purple electric leopard cub in Lin Wu's hand had already shown a hint of its true form after eating those crystal blocks, but it was still just a hint, and no one knew if it could advance to a 5th-level magical beast.

  "Roar!!"

  At this time, a loud roar suddenly came from outside, it was the voice of Purple Thunder Leopard, "What's going on?" Lin Wu was shocked and quickly ran to the entrance of the cave to look out.

  The scene in front of him made Lin Wu stunned, the purple electric leopard was staring at a giant python tens of meters long, which was spitting out its tongue and staring at the purple electric leopard.

  "A 4th-level Earthworm Wyrm." Lin Wu was shocked in his heart, "It's actually an Earthworm Wyrm. The earth-type Earthworm Wyrm is most skilled at burrowing and is also a very troublesome magical beast."

  "Hiss." The giant python coiled its body, its icy eyes staring at the purple electric leopard, ready to launch a fatal blow at any moment.

  "Roar!" The Purple Thunder Leopard stared back without showing any weakness, but in order to stare at Lin Wu, the Purple Thunder Leopard had not eaten for several days. Adding that it had recently released a big move and its body was weak, it was obviously not a match for the Earth Python in its prime. Obviously, the Earth Python had come over to take advantage of the situation because it saw that the Purple Thunder Leopard was not in good condition.

  After staring at each other for a moment, the burrowing python took the initiative to launch an attack. The python quickly drilled into the ground and instantly disappeared from view. Burrowing was as simple as eating and drinking for the python.

  The purple electric leopard saw the movement of the giant earth python and its body also changed positions constantly to prevent the giant earth python from attacking suddenly from underground.

  It was just that the giant python was patient enough, while the purple electric leopard's body was weak, so in a short while, the purple electric leopard's movements slowed down. Just at that moment, the giant python suddenly pounced out from under the purple electric leopard and wrapped itself around it.

  The Earth Python's entanglement is also one of its innate skills. Once it wraps around you, it's almost impossible to escape.

  The purple electric leopard was furious, but the giant python wrapped itself tighter and tighter. The sound of cracking bones echoed through the air, making Lin Wu's scalp tingle with fear nearby.

  "Roar!!"

  Suddenly, a dazzling purple lightning burst out from the body of the Purple Electric Leopard, and the powerful lightning struck the Earth Python's body wildly, causing blood to splatter all over its body.

  The giant python in pain had no choice but to release the purple electric leopard, and the purple electric leopard also took advantage of the situation to escape.

  However, at this moment, from the stumbling gait of Zidian Bao, it can be seen that Zidian Bao has already exhausted its strength and is unable to fight again. Although Dadi Mang was struck by lightning and covered in blood, these were only superficial wounds. Compared to Zidian Bao's injuries, they were nothing.

  "Woof woof~~" At this time, the purple electric leopard cub in Lin Wu's arms saw the situation below and suddenly barked curiously, as if very curious about the creature below that looked exactly like itself.

  The voice of the purple electric leopard cub suddenly caught the attention of the two demons below.

  "Little guy, you've been killed by me." Lin Wu was shocked in his heart.

  The giant python saw that a human had appeared, and it immediately put down the purple electric leopard and rushed towards Lin Wu. In the eyes of the giant python, the purple electric leopard was no longer a threat, and after eating, its speed would decrease, so the naturally vigilant giant python did not allow anything unexpected to happen during its meal.

  Seeing the earth python rushing towards him, Lin Wu subconsciously prepared to retreat into the cave, but immediately stopped in his tracks. The earth python was not a purple electric leopard; if he entered the cave, it would be like looking for death. This kind of cave was simply like a fish in water for the earth python to enter and exit.

  Thinking of this, Lin Wu rushed out of the cave, but in doing so, he was heading straight for the giant python on the ground. Moreover, the cave was located on a cliff, and Lin Wu's hands were busy climbing, making it impossible for him to attack.

  Seeing the giant python speeding down the cliff, Lin Wu was shocked, his body's aura wildly circulating, using all his might to sprint towards the bottom of the cliff.

  However, Lin Wu's climbing speed was no match for the Earth Python. Soon, the Earth Python was only twenty meters away from Lin Wu, and Lin Wu could even see the texture of each scale on its body.

  "Woof woof~~" The little guy in Lin Wuhuai's arms seemed to have also sensed the danger and kept barking.

  "It's all or nothing!!" Seeing this, Lin Wu gritted his teeth, grasped the rock on the cliff with one hand, and drew out a shining magic sword with his right hand, ready to face whatever was coming.

  Just then, a lightning ball flew quickly towards the giant python, Lin Wu's heart was delighted, and his hand swung down with a shining sword.

  "Earth Rend... Wave Motion Sword!!"

  A strong gust of wind blew towards the Earth Python, and the snake was still very sensitive to cold. Lin Wu's sudden movement caused the Earth Python's body to stiffen, and at that moment, the lightning ball hit the Earth Python. The lightning ball exploded on the Earth Python's body, blowing its flesh and blood into a blur.

  Lin Wu took advantage of the opportunity to quickly jump down the cliff. Why did Purple Lightning Leopard want to help him? Lin Wu looked at Purple Lightning Leopard in the distance with a hint of confusion in his heart.

  "Roar!!"

  "Waaahhhh..."

  Lin Wu stepped off the cliff, and the purple electric leopard let out a low growl, while the little guy in Lin Wu's arms responded with a tender whimper.

  Lin Wu realized that Zilei Bao wasn't there to save him, but because of the little guy's cries for help, it had attacked the giant python and saved itself.

  Feeling the little guy constantly scratching in his arms, Lin Wu helplessly put it down. The little guy looked curiously at the familiar yet strange figure in front of him as soon as he landed on the ground.

  The little guy was caught by Lin Wu when he hadn't opened his eyes yet, so he didn't recognize his own mother at all. However, after all, they had a blood relationship, so the little guy also had a kind of intimacy with Zidian Bao.

  The little guy looked at Lin Wu, then looked at the distant Purple Thunder Leopard, and for a moment was at a loss.

  Seeing this, Lin Wu let out a soft sigh of relief. "Little guy, you've got a conscience. If you had run away, I would have suffered in vain."

  BOOM!!

  At this time, a sudden hissing sound rang out, and Lin Wu suddenly remembered that now was not the time to worry about this, as the giant python was still lurking with its eyes fixed on them, especially since it had been injured and become even more ferocious.

  The giant python's icy gaze stared at Lin Wu and the purple electric leopard, constantly spitting out letters, then suddenly drilled into the ground and disappeared from view.

  Lin Wu also felt a headache upon seeing this, the Earth Python's move was too overpowered, burrowing underground made it impossible to hit, and its concealment was excellent, plus it could launch an attack at any time.
