"Senior, be careful!"
"Roar!"
The originally dying Dragon Python opened its massive maw at the Black-Clothed Old Man and spat out a ball of black flames.
Although the Dragon Python's attack was sudden, the old man immediately became alert upon hearing Zhang Hao's voice and quickly formed a hand seal with one hand.
An extremely terrifying power erupted, and a domineering palm strike heavily slammed onto the Dragon Python's body.
At that instant, Zhang Hao felt a terrifying power restrain him, making him feel almost suffocated.
"Boom!" The ground trembled.
This palm strike directly created a large pit around the Dragon Python.
"Alas! This venerable one only needed a little of your essence blood and didn't intend to take your life." The old man sighed.
The Black-Clothed Old Man reached out with one hand towards the Dragon Python. A drop of essence blood, the size of a fist, was drawn towards the man and placed into a white porcelain bottle.
After putting away the bottle, the Black-Clothed Old Man turned towards Zhang Hao's direction and said with a half-smile, "Since you're here, why not come out and show yourself?"
Zhang Hao knew this old man was a super expert, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly revealed himself.
He walked up to the Black-Clothed Old Man and bowed respectfully, "Greetings, Senior."
The Black-Clothed Old Man's tiger-like eyes scanned Zhang Hao. Seeing that his cultivation was only at the Eighth Heaven, he immediately dispelled his wariness and said with a light smile, "Just a small Eighth Heaven Realm, yet you dare to enter the depths of Black Smoke Mountain. You're quite a bold young fellow. However, if not for your warning just now, this old man might have been seriously injured.
This old man doesn't like owing favors. Consider this bottle of pills a gift for your help, young friend."
The old man took out a bottle of pills and handed it to Zhang Hao, saying, "These are Tendon Strengthening Pills. They can improve one's Physique. Take them."
Improve one's Physique? Zhang Hao was slightly delighted and didn't decline.
The old man subconsciously glanced at Zhang Hao again, stroked his beard, and laughed heartily, "Young friend, you possess a great destiny. If you ever come to the Emperor Domain in the future, you can seek me out at the Free and Easy Sect."
After speaking, he turned into a wisp of black smoke and left.
Emperor Domain...
I didn't expect this old fellow to be from the Emperor Domain. That's a powerful country, rumored to have experts everywhere.
However, it's best to leave here early now, in case this Dragon Python has companions. "Huh? Wait."
Zhang Hao looked at the Dragon Python and said in surprise, "This Dragon Python isn't dead."
This Dragon Python had its cultivation crippled by the old man, but there was still a trace of breath!
Heaven is helping me!
If I kill this Dragon Python myself, the System will likely give me a reward!
But I wonder if this counts as a bug?
Seeing that the Dragon Python was about to die, Zhang Hao no longer hesitated.
He directly drew his Blood Drinker Saber and stabbed it directly into the Dragon Python's seven-inch vital spot!
At the same time, he unleashed Boundless Rampage. With the double buff activated, "Boom!"
Incredibly domineering power surged from the Blood Drinker Saber into the Dragon Python's body. At the same time, Zhang Hao unleashed his rampage energy.
"Ding dong!"
"Killed Dragon Python, Experience Points 2000, True Qi 100"
"Leveled up twice consecutively, current level Martial Master First Heaven!"
"Obtained Dragon Python Egg * 1."
"Obtained purple-gold divine token!"
"Obtained Soul Devouring Pearl * 1"
Zhang Hao wasn't focused on the rewards right now, but rather astonished by the thrill of leveling up consecutively!
Martial Master First Heaven!
Martial Master and Martial Artist are two different Realms!
The current him could probably beat ten of his former self at Martial Artist Ninth Level, and it would be a complete thrashing.
During this time, his gains were also significant. His Arhat Fist had reached the perfected Realm, and his overall strength was steadily rising.
Gurgle gurgle...
Zhang Hao heard his stomach gurgling. "It's not too late to have a full meal before going back."
On the other side, an angry Ning Xue was searching everywhere for Zhang Hao's whereabouts. At this moment, her stomach was also hungry. Unexpectedly, she smelled the aroma of roasted rabbit, which immediately made her mouth water, and she followed the scent to this place.
Zhang Hao looked up and saw a girl in green clothes. With deep, clear large eyes and an oval face, she was a striking beauty.
This looks a bit familiar...
After seeing clearly that the girl was Ning Xue, he was instantly dumbfounded.
"I'm finished."
It's the woman I saw naked before!
