Chapter Thirty-two: Father

  "Ling Lin." Steadying himself, Shi Ningning gazed at Ling Lin who was facing the giant python alone, shouting shrilly. That was a powerful demon from the Zi Fu Realm! Although he knew Ling Lin was very strong, after all, he had only just entered the Xian Tian realm not long ago, how could he possibly be a match for a powerful demon from the Zi Fu Realm?

  He wanted to escape first, but how could he leave him behind. Tears welled up, and a determined glint flashed in Shi Ning's eyes - if he died, how could she live on? Moreover, if it weren't for Ling Lin, she would have already died several times over. Since they couldn't be together in life, then being together in death wasn't so bad either. Thinking this, Shi Ning quickly hid herself away. She sadly discovered that she was of no use at all - if she were to be found by the Red Python, she could only become a burden to Ling Lin.

  With no more distractions, Ling Lin's spirit was highly concentrated. He knew that this would be the most perilous battle since he arrived in this world. One misstep and it would be a fatal outcome.

  These days, he had been lying in the sea of consciousness, and only occasionally went out to have a full meal. The purple-blooded sword reappeared in his hand. Because of the great increase in strength, it was naturally unnecessary to use the purple-blooded sword to deal with those congenital realm fierce beasts, but when facing this Zi Fu realm's red python, Ling Lin did not dare to be careless at all. With the purple-blooded sword in hand, he was able to show his peak combat power. The dark golden killing yuan force in the sea of consciousness quickly surged up, and after condensing the heart of slaughter, the Ling Spirit Force that had not been used also began to flow through his body. Without reservation, Ling Lin brought his own combat power to its peak state. A surging wave of yuan force fluctuation burst out from Ling Lin's body, which was emitting a green light.

  The red python did not go after Shi Ning, in its eyes, Ling Lin was undoubtedly the most important one. Others could be slapped to death with a wave of its hand, and since it didn't slap her to death, she was just lucky. Feeling a surge of fluctuations coming from within Ling Lin's body, the red python's gaze slightly condensed. No wonder he managed to dodge my first attack, this human kid really has some skills. This aura is even stronger than that of a pre-heavenly beast in its later stages. However, I will let you know the huge difference between the Pre-Heavenly realm and the Purple Mansion realm. The dark red snake pupils of the red python were filled with ferocity.

  Whoa... Only to see a huge red scale snake tail swiftly and rapidly sweep towards Ling Lin.

  "So fast." Ling Lin's entire body was faintly blue, apparently using the power of the seal to its extreme. At the same time, the purple blood sword suddenly cut towards the giant snake's body.

  The Purple Blood Sword moved, instantly triggering the power of heaven and earth. Whoosh... A long, dark golden whip was visible to the naked eye, entwining the incoming snake tail. This whip was incredibly resilient, and its frenzied entwinement caused the snake tail's speed to sharply decrease.

  At the same time, a strand of yuan force condensed into a thin dark golden line that contained Lin's unique power within his body. The thin line cut through the giant snake's body!

  This move, which mobilizes the power of heaven and earth and condenses one's yuan force into a thin line, was slowly explored by Ling Lin after entering the pre-heavenly realm. The power is quite great, but it has not been perfected yet. Today, facing a purple mansion realm demon, Ling Lin can only use this move in desperation.

  "Boom." Ling Lin was shocked and flew backward at high speed, scraping out a deep gully on the ground.

  "Whoosh!" Fresh, bright red blood spurted out of a wound on the snake's body, but soon the flow slowed and the wound narrowed.

  "Roar!"

  The giant python let out a furious hiss, its massive body quickly coiling up as it stared at the human youth in the distance. A mere mortal who had actually managed to injure him! Although this injury was negligible for the giant python, as a powerful demon of the Violet Palace realm, it had its pride.

  Unforgivable!

  A pair of eyes suddenly turned crimson red, and the giant python instantly transformed into a red lightning bolt!

  Dive into the forest!

  The Zifu realm is actually so powerful. The power of this one sword can only lightly cut open a thread of the giant python's skin, which for the gigantic python is like scratching an itch, and even if it comes thousands of times, it won't produce much damage.

  Ling Lin's face was grave as he gazed at the red python pouncing towards him, a hint of fierce light flashing across his eyes. The previous move didn't work, so let's try this one.

  "Slaughter becomes silk." Ling Lin muttered in his heart. This is the only move recorded in the first heavy "Slaughter Fairy Scripture".

  The yuan force inside the body was suddenly drained by half, and then, with a single point of the purple blood sword, a dark golden whirlpool appeared above the giant python's body. Dark golden threads emerged from the whirlpool and wrapped around the massive body. A screeching friction sound rose, and the python's charging body suddenly stopped, its huge snake scales covered in fine threads. The scales and threads produced intense friction, sparking flames. However, these threads were extremely tough and didn't break at all, instead tightening further. Some had even pierced the scales and burrowed into the flesh.

  "Roar!" The red python let out a furious bellow, with a hint of pain amidst its anger. Above, as the silk threads withdrew, the dark golden whirlpool grew smaller and smaller until it vanished. At this moment, the red python looked somewhat pathetic, its entire body resembling a wrapped zongzi, with threads of fresh blood spraying out from the cracked scales.

  "Boom!" A scorching flame suddenly rose, and the red python was violently tossed about in the flames. On its body, threads of fine silk gradually disintegrated under the burning of the demon fire. The red python struggled free from the silk threads, and in an instant, its massive snake tail swept towards Ling Lin not far away.

  "Hmm." Yuan Li's energy consumption was too great, and Ling Lin only had time to raise his hands, which were glowing with a faint blue light, in front of his chest. His body was suddenly lifted off the ground by an enormous force and sent flying sideways.

  "Boom." After crushing several large trees, Ling Lin slowly got up from the ground. Looking at his slightly deformed left hand, Ling Lin's eyebrows became even more furrowed. His own Gale Spirit Technique was only in its early stages, and he could only gale-spiritize one part of his body. His left hand, which had not been gale-spiritized, was emitting a faint cracking sound, and at this point, it had completely lost all ability to move.

  "Hmph." A faint flush rose to his face, and fresh blood spilled from Ling Lin's mouth. This big fellow had a huge amount of strength. He had already used all his might to defend himself, but the powerful force still shook through his arms and injured him internally.

  Linglin's two attacks had thoroughly enraged Chi Mang.

  "Hmm."

  The red python pounced again like lightning.

  "Come on." Ling Lin was like a madman, holding the Purple Blood Sword and desperately resisting. The Red Python sometimes bit with its snake head, sometimes entwined with its snake body, and sometimes whipped with its snake tail, as if its entire body was a weapon, surrounding Ling Lin in a frenzied attack.

  "Hmm."

  Once again, Ling Lin was swept away by the giant python's tail and flew into the air. In mid-air, he suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood. After knocking down several large trees in a row, Ling Lin dissipated the enormous force on his body, stabilized his figure, and his legs suddenly kicked against a tree trunk.

  "Crack." The big tree was broken by Ling Lin's kick, and then he flashed towards Chi Meng like lightning. His eyes were filled with a crazy color, and a loud roar echoed in the air: "Killing is my silk."

  "Pffft." A fresh red splash fell from mid-air once again. A whirlpool slightly smaller than the previous one reappeared above the Red Python. Dark golden threads wrapped around the Red Python, binding it firmly in place. At the same time, Ling Lin held the Purple Blood Sword and frantically stabbed at the Red Python.

  "Despicable!" The red python roared repeatedly, but no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't shake off the tightly wrapped silk threads. The demonic fire was a power released by the demon core in its body and couldn't be used excessively, or else it might cause the demon core to degenerate, or even fall from the Violet Palace realm. Now, it could only rely on brute force to break free from these silk threads.

  Forced to use the Killing Silk again, Ling Lin's internal energy was almost depleted. Summoning his last breath, he fought on. By this time, Ling Lin had become frenzied. This was his last chance; if he couldn't severely injure the Red Python, he would have no more opportunities to survive. With a desperate longing for life, Ling Lin moved as swiftly as lightning, tightly grasping the Purple Blood Sword and stabbing at the temporarily immobilized Red Python, which was bound by layers of silk threads and unable to move.

  However, a white streak was even faster and pierced the body of the red python in the blink of an eye.

  "Roar!" A huge wound was torn open in the middle of the snake's body, and blood splattered from the wound. The python let out a pained hiss and thrashed about wildly.

  "Be careful!"

  In a frenzy, the python violently broke free from the silk threads, its massive tail sweeping horizontally and suddenly colliding with the white figure.

  "Condense!" Looking at Shi Ning who was about to be swept away by the giant tail of the red python, Ling Lin's eyes were about to split apart as he let out a shrill cry. She still had injuries, how could she withstand the python's furious strike!

  Watching as tragedy is about to unfold.

  "Uh-huh."

  A poem congealed in her mind, a very ordinary jade pendant suddenly shattered. The space around her was like a stone skipping into the lake, rippling out in circles of faint ripples. A slender hand emerged from the ripples and grasped the giant tail that Xue Mang had swept over. A figure gradually walked out of the void with ripples.

  A middle-aged man wearing a purple robe, with a stern expression, took one step out of thin air, and a powerful pressure that was hard to describe spread out, covering the sky and sweeping out. However, this pressure seemed to have a spiritual quality that bypassed Ling Lin and Shi Ning's bodies, and was entirely unleashed onto Chi Meng's body.

  "Father!" Shi Ning exclaimed in surprise.
