Chapter 181 Draw Hatred Xiang Nan sprinted wildly, his body transforming into shadows, rapidly shuttling between the numerous volcanic craters.
Flying was definitely not as fast as sprinting over.
The Fish King chased after him relentlessly, jumping from one volcano crater to another, jumping back and forth in pursuit.
The little bird stood on Xiang Nan's shoulder, raising its head high and pointing its wings at the Fish King behind it.
"You haven't had enough!" Xiang Nan scolded angrily, "You still want to eat the Fire Eagle Inner Pill? You were lucky enough to survive just now. Don't take such a risk again."
Just now, the little bird had clearly died for a short period of time. To be able to survive was simply the blessing of the heavens. After all, its little bird was only at the first level of Origin Return. Swallowing the inner core of a demonic beast at the fifth level of Origin Return was a life-threatening act.
Xiang Nan thought that he was already a master who dared to pull out his teeth and steal a cub from a wolf's den without fear of death. He didn't expect that the little bird was even more powerful than him and didn't know what death was.
The Fish King chased after him reluctantly. As Xiang Nan sprinted wildly, he chopped out streaks of saber light from behind.
The blade light of the first level of Origin Return encountered a demonic beast of the fifth level of Origin Return, which was still a fire-attributed demonic beast. Its effect was almost zero!
If it weren't for Xiang Nan cultivating the Vast Heaven Pure Essence Technique, the saber light wouldn't even be able to get close to the Fire Fish's body and would have been dispersed by the demonic energy.
As for this vast volcanic region, it was unknown how big it was. Xiang Nan had already been running at full speed for nearly five minutes, and there were still craters large and small ahead.
As for the Fire Fish, because it was too large, every time it jumped, it would jump over two to three hundred meters in length, quickly closing the distance between it and Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan didn't have a suitable martial skill that could force the Fish King back in an instant.
"Damn it, do I need to use the Sun God Technique again?" Xiang Nan gritted his teeth and became ruthless in his heart.
However, the higher the frequency of using the Sun God Technique, the higher the probability of becoming enchanted. Right now, no one around him was able to save him.
At this critical moment, when Xiang Nan was already preparing to circulate the Sun God Technique, a huge demonic beast suddenly pounced out from a huge volcano crater in front of him on the left!
It was actually a fire lizard fifty meters long!
This thing crossed Xiang Nan and directly bit the hundred-meter-long Fish King in one bite.
Although the Flaming Lizard was twice the size of the Fish King, there seemed to be some kind of poison in its teeth.
The Fish King struggled to slap his body. In just two seconds, large patches of purple spots quickly spread out from the part that was bitten by the lizard.
Immediately after, the entire fish was completely swallowed up by the purple mark and remained motionless.
Seeing that the Fire Lizard was busy eating the Fish King's body, Xiang Nan heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Are all the demonic beasts growing in this damned place so big?"
Thinking of this, Xiang Nan felt his scalp go numb. The one he wanted to steal was the seventh level Guiyuan Fire Python egg!
After such a torment, Xiang Nan also ran out of the Flame Mountain Pass area and discovered that the terrain in front of him had changed.
The cracked ground was still flowing with boiling magma, but the temperature was even higher than the crater area! Made it difficult for Xiang Nan to even breathe.
In front of him stood a series of hollow stone pillars. Those stone pillars were conical in shape, and black smoke was emitting from the openings at the top.
Xiang Nan was a little more careful as he slowly shuttled through the pillars of flames, searching for the snake's den.
After walking about ten miles, a rectangular stone pillar suddenly rose from the ground, attracting Xiang Nan's attention.
That thing was said to be a stone pillar. It was more like a giant mountain with a strange shape. At the foot of the mountain, there was a cave that was a hundred meters tall. Inside the cave, there was a huge creature that was slowly breathing at an extremely slow speed.
Every time he inhaled from the cave, Xiang Nan would feel a strong attraction, pulling him towards it.
Every time he exhaled, he would spit out a blazing wave of Qi. This wave of Qi was fishy and smelly, causing one to feel nauseated.
"I think I found it." Xiang Nan sensed the fishy smell unique to snakes, so he wiped his eyes and used the Lightning Photoelectric Eye.
He saw a giant python coiling around the pitch-black cave. The python's body was burning all the time.
This was because the body of the Blazing Fire Python was coiled, and it was unknown how long it was.
At this moment, Xiang Nan was beginning to regret it. Such a mission worth 100 credits was not compatible with its danger level.
"Little Sparrow." Xiang Nan pointed at the cave and said, "I'll lure it out later. You should take the opportunity to steal the egg! You should know what a snake egg looks like, right?"
The little bird pointed at the cave with its wings and then at itself.
"You want to lure the Blazing Fire Python? No, it's too dangerous," Xiang Nan said.
The bird raised its head and flew out with a whoosh. It turned into a flaming shadow and circled around the sky for dozens of times before landing on Xiang Nan's shoulder. Then, it pointed at the cave with its wings.
"So fast!" Xiang Nan's heart skipped a beat. After the bird turned red, its flying speed had actually increased by a large margin!
The Gale Sparrow was already flying fast, but now that its speed had increased again, it was already beyond Xiang Nan's reach.
"Alright, since you insist on doing this, I'll let you do it. No matter how powerful the Blazing Fire Python is, it can't fly, right?" Xiang Nan nodded.
He saw that the little bird flew to the vicinity of the cave and began to chirp in the cave.
As a result, the Blazing Fire Python didn't even bother to look at it, so it didn't even plan to get up.
The little bird puffed out a wind blade. The wind blade also changed its appearance, turning into a state of being wrapped in fiery flames. With a slap, it smashed into the forehead of the fiery python.
One was at the first level of the Origin Realm, and the other was at the seventh level of the Origin Realm. The burning sewing did not even move the eyelids of the Blazing Fire Python.
"It's broken." Xiang Nan frowned. The Blazing Fire Python simply ignored the little bird.
At this moment, the little bird made a gesture that made Xiang Nan's soul shatter.
It actually swaggered onto the Fire Python's face, walked all the way to its forehead, and took a blister of bird shit as if nothing had happened.
"I … I'll go …" Xiang Nan's heart was raised. This little bastard actually pulled on hatred!
Demonic beasts, especially those with higher cultivation bases, had greater dignity.
The Blazing Fire Python couldn't bear it any longer. A pair of scarlet snake eyes slowly opened and two red pillars of light shot out from the cave.
"Little Sparrow, run!" Xiang Nan roared.
Whoosh! The little bird also knew that it had done a good job. In an instant, it turned into a red shadow and rushed out. There was a fire line in the air along its rapid flight.
Immediately after, an incomparably fierce suction force came from within the cave!
Outside, seven to eight meters tall pillars of flame stone broke apart and were sucked into the cave.
The little bird had originally flown extremely fast, but now, it was pulled back by the suction force. It struggled to flap its wings, but it could only move forward at a slow speed.
Just as the suction force was about to end, a hundred-meter-long python suddenly shot out from the cave, aiming straight at the little bird.
