After resting for about half an hour, Austin, along with Nathan, the Sect Supremo, and the gnome, made his way back to the waterfall where the three-headed ghostly python awaited. Austin was determined to get whatever treasures it was protecting. Since the python was extremely powerful to the point of being invincible, he had come up with a clever plan.
Before carrying out the plan with his three companions, Austin took out four green pills. Each of them took one without any hesitation.
The green pill, called the Green Antidotal Pill, was an eighth grade pill dedicated for detoxification.
Austin obtained the pills earlier from the treasure storage of the Oracle Sect.
The red fog that the three-headed ghostly python released had now completely covered the area of about a hundred feet around the waterfall.
Austin, as a pill refiner, easily discerned that the red fog contained an incredibly deadly poison. Anyone who inhaled even a tiny bit of it would instantly be killed. Without a special pill to deal with its poison, no one dared to approach the fog. The Green Antidotal Pills were perfect to protect them under such a situation.
After the pill took effect, Austin said no more words. He simply took out his Slaughtering Sword and waved it. A dozen or so streaks of bloody sword aura immediately struck towards the back of the waterfall, where the python's nest was located.
Boom!
Hit by the sword aura, the falling water suddenly split into two and violent ripples appeared on the cold pool where the water flowed.
"Roar!"
Came a loud and furious howl from behind the waterfall.
The enormous figure of the three-headed ghostly python, with heads as big as houses, immediately rushed out from the waterfall and charged towards Austin.
"Attack it now!
But be careful not to get too close to it, just attack it from afar. More importantly, don't get too carried away in the fight. Once our goal of luring it out of its nest is achieved, you should retreat immediately!"
Austin bellowed.
After he finished speaking, he instantaneously launched attacks towards the python using all four of his skills, the Timing Finger, the Slaughtering Sword auras, the Bone-shaped Demon Claw, and the Flaming Swordplay Array.
His companions, Nathan, the gnome, and the Sect Supremo also launched ferocious vital energy attacks at the python.
The thunder unicorn roared
as it sprang out of Austin's elixir field, spurting out bolts of thunder arcs towards the python.
The positions in which the four of them stood was well thought-out; they were all scattered hundreds or thousands of meters away from the waterfall, launching vital energy attacks from afar just as their master had told them to.
Austin was surprised to find that although the strength of the thunder unicorn, which was equal to human cultivators at the preliminary stage of Tribulation Realm, was a somewhat weaker than that of Nathan who was at the preliminary stage of Heaven Realm and the Sect Supremo who was at the medium stage of Tribulation Realm, the lightning arcs that it was spraying out of its mouth were the ones that were causing the most damage to the python. As soon as the lightning arcs hit the python's boy, pieces of its black scales would explode and disappear, exposing its scorched skin.
Austin figured that it was highly likely that the nature of the lightning's power happened to be greatly effective in subduing the three-headed ghostly python.
"Roar!"
the three-headed ghostly python howled more loudly and more furiously. It was now completely enraged.
Whoosh!
It suddenly moved its huge body and finally left the waterfall, chasing after its attackers.
"Get out now!" Austin quickly urged as
he hurriedly flew backwards and retreated as fast as he could. He could not help but feel elated. His plan had worked and the python had finally left its nest.
Nathan, the Sect Supremo, the thunder unicorn, and the gnome quickly followed suit.
After chasing them for about two or three kilometers, the three-headed ghostly python suddenly realized what was happening. He immediately gave up the chase and turned back towards the direction of the waterfall.
The fleeing team swarmed up again, followed the python from afar and desperately launched vital energy attacks against it again.
Their attacks landed painfully on the three-headed ghostly python's huge body. The lightning arcs that came from the thunder unicorn were so powerful that it completely scorched the python's body.
The strong smell of its roasted flesh wafted in the air.
Although the combat power of the three-headed ghostly python was extremely formidable, it had one obvious drawback: its body was too large. With its huge mass of a body, it was extremely susceptible to attacks.
The python let out another deafening and furious roar.
It was now even more aggravated than before by the continuous tormenting of the four. Its bloodshot eyes were as large as lanterns unblinkingly glowered at them, looking as if they were about to shoot out fire.
