111: Chapter 111 The Venomous Python Devours the Sky, The Final Counterattack

"Die, monster! Go to Hell with me!"

The roar of the Cult Deacon fell from the sky, filled with hair-raising madness.

In the process of his rapid dive, he completely abandoned his last shred of human dignity.

"Crack! Crack!" A series of bone-shattering and restructuring sounds exploded in mid-air. The Cult Deacon's originally gaunt body began to expand and twist violently. His black cult robe was instantly torn to shreds.

Countless palm-sized, metallic-sheened, sickly green scales rapidly erupted from the surface of his skin. His legs fused into a thick snake tail, his skull elongated, his jaw dislocated and split open, and his human teeth fell out, replaced by four venomous fangs half a meter long.

In just two seconds, the Cult Deacon had completely vanished.

In his place was a terrifying giant python over thirty meters long and as thick as a water barrel!

S-rank gene, complete beast transformation!

This was his ultimate trump card, gained by forcibly overdrawing all the Origin of his Tier 4 Martial Grandmaster cultivation after being cornered by the backlash of the Blood Sacrifice Array.

"Hiss————!" The Cult Deacon, now a giant python, opened a bloodthirsty maw capable of swallowing a small house. His internal venom glands operated at overload, and his abdomen swelled high.

The next second, the giant python, looking down from above, aimed at Su Chen in the center of the ruins below and spat violently.

"Boom!" A dense, sickly green toxic mist, like a breached flood, surged out from the python's mouth.

This toxic mist was so massive that it instantly expanded as it fell, like a small green typhoon, completely enveloping the area of several hundred meters where Su Chen was located.

"Retreat! Quickly, retreat!" On the high ground of the ruins, Jiang Feng's expression changed drastically, and he roared at the remaining students. The green toxic mist spread, brushing against the edge of the high ground.

"Sizzle, sizzle..." The corpses of several exotic beasts that hadn't managed to escape into the Star Gate crack melted into yellow liquid at a visible rate the moment they touched the edge of the toxic mist. Even the exposed special alloy steel bars beneath the Arena hissed with white smoke under the corrosion of the toxic mist, turning into molten iron.

But what was even more despairing was not this terrifying corrosiveness.

"Pop! Pop!" On the dome of the Arena, several high-power military searchlights quickly shone their beams down, attempting to pierce the toxic mist to see the situation inside.

However, the moment that strong light, capable of illuminating the night sky, shot into the green toxic mist, the light vanished.

It was like a clay ox entering the sea; without any refraction or reflection, it was completely swallowed by that thick green mist. The entire area covered by the toxic mist turned into an absolute black hole where one could not see their own fingers.

"Oh no!" Outside the light screen, Major General Lei Wuji's eyes widened, and he slammed his palm onto the console, leaving a handprint directly on the refined steel tabletop.

"It's the Abyss Light-Swallowing Poison Barrier! This toxic mist can completely absorb all light!"

Major General Lei Wuji stared fixedly at the pitch-black area, anxious as an ant on a hot pan: "Su Chen's sword is broken! His most proud assets are his monstrous reaction speed and prediction! But no matter how strong his taijutsu is, that bizarre movement technique relies on his eyes to capture the opponent's movements!"

Patriarch Lin Zhen, head of the Lin family, also looked ashen, his hands trembling.

"It's over. His vision has been completely stripped away; it's like locking a peerless swordsman in a dark room without light! He can't even see where the enemy is, so how can he dodge a lethal strike from a Martial Ancestor?"

The surrounding Great Grandmasters shook their heads and sighed one after another.

In an absolute dark Domain where vision is lost, facing a Tier 4 venomous python thirty meters long that possesses home-field advantage—let alone a youth who forcibly broke through from a Martial Artist, even a true Martial Ancestor would be strangled into a pulp of flesh within a few breaths. This was a certain-death scenario.

... Deep within the toxic mist. Absolute darkness, deathly silence. The air was filled with a pungent, sour stench. The toxic mist, like a tangible liquid, was crazily corroding everything here.

However, Su Chen, who was in the very center of the toxic mist, did not show the slightest panic that the outside world imagined.

"Sizzle..." The toxic mist clung to his skin, attempting to melt his flesh.

But within a second of the toxic mist touching his skin, a layer of extremely thin yet solidified, profound black Armament Haki had already adhered tightly to every inch of his muscles like a tight-fitting inner garment.

The strong acid, capable of melting steel, could not even bite through the outermost layer of the Armament Haki and could only dissipate into wisps of white smoke.

Su Chen stood where he was, motionless. He lowered his head and glanced at the broken sword hilt he had been clutching in his left hand.

"Clang." Su Chen loosened his fingers and casually threw this piece of scrap iron onto the ground.

No sword. Vision completely stripped away. If it were anyone else, they would have already fallen into hysterical, random attacks or desperate defense by now.

But Su Chen, in this darkness where one could not see their fingers, slowly closed his eyes. Those scarlet Two-Tomoe Sharingan that made countless exotic beasts tremble were completely covered by his eyelids.

"Blinded, aren't you?" Somewhere in the darkness, the Cult Deacon, transformed into a venomous python, was coiled around a broken stone pillar.

His vertical pupils emitted a faint green light in the darkness, and watching the motionless Su Chen, a surge of cruel pleasure welled up in his heart.

"Your taijutsu is indeed very strong; you could even slay the Obsidian Behemoth. But you are too young and simply don't understand the bizarreness of the Abyss talent!"

The Cult Deacon flicked his scarlet snake tongue, and his massive body slithered silently through the ruins. Lubricated by the toxic mist, his snake scales did not make even the slightest friction sound.

"Without eyes, you are just a living target standing in place!"

The Cult Deacon circled behind Su Chen. His massive thirty-meter-long body slowly coiled, like a spring compressed to its limit, accumulating terrifying power capable of shattering city walls.

"Go to Hell! Go to Hell and repent for your arrogance!"

The Cult Deacon roared crazily in his heart. His massive snake head opened silently, and the four venomous fangs aimed at Su Chen's back, shooting out violently!

The speed was like lightning, without causing a single sound of wind. This was the most perfect assassination.

However, the corner of Su Chen's mouth, with his back to the venomous python, curled slightly upward at this moment. He wore an extremely mocking cold sneer.

His vision had indeed been stripped away. The Sharingan indeed could not see. But the moment Su Chen closed his eyes, [Elementary Observation Haki]—like circles of invisible water ripples, centered on his body, rippled wantonly and unreservedly throughout this absolute dark Domain.

No need for light. No need for eyes. In the 3D radar of Observation Haki, this black hole shrouded in toxic mist instead became Su Chen's most absolute home field!

"Back left, fifteen meters." Su Chen stood in place, and a massive 3D model clearly emerged in his mind. A huge snake shadow was coiled on a stone pillar.

"Heart rate, 180 beats per minute."

"Venom is gathering at the tips of the fangs."

"Abdominal muscles are contracting, preparing to launch."

During the Cult Deacon's stealth, which he thought was unnoticed, his every breath, every heartbeat, and the extremely weak vibrations produced by every scale crushing gravel—in Su Chen's Observation Haki perception, it was as if someone were beating a huge gong right next to his ear in the silent night!

It was as if someone had suddenly turned on a 10,000-watt high-beam searchlight in a pitch-black room!

It was too dazzling. It was too clear. So clear that Su Chen felt this sneak attack was simply as ridiculous as a clown.

"Whoosh—" The foul wind finally closed in on Su Chen's back. The venomous python's fangs were less than half a meter away from Su Chen's back!

At this critical moment, Su Chen moved. He did not turn and run, nor did he dodge to the side.

Using his left foot as an axis, he exerted force violently from his waist, and his entire upper body, like a tightened spring suddenly released, fiercely completed a 180-degree turn backward!

"What?!" The venomous python, in mid-air during its launch, saw its vertical pupils shrink violently.

It saw the youth who had originally been facing away from it, actually turning around in the lightless darkness without the slightest deviation, facing its open bloodthirsty maw head-on!

"Did you think I only rely on my eyes to kill?" Su Chen kept his eyes tightly closed. His cold voice clearly reached the Cult Deacon's ears in the darkness.

As his voice fell, Su Chen's hands slowly raised.

"Hum—!" Without the black sword, the Armament Haki no longer needed to be compressed or worry about the weapon's tolerance limit.

A profound black metallic luster, even purer and heavier than when he slew the King Beast earlier, like two leaping black flames, instantly covered Su Chen's fists!

On the fist tips, dark red [Ryuo] energy surged crazily, and even the surrounding toxic mist was forced away by this terrifying force field, creating a two-meter vacuum zone.

Su Chen opened his eyes. In the darkness, two scarlet Sharingan suddenly lit up, like the gaze of a Shinigami.

Looking at the huge fangs crashing toward him, the muscles of his right arm bulged exaggeratedly, and his entire arm stretched backward to the limit.

No weapon? It doesn't matter. Stripping away vision? That's even more of a joke. This body of Shura is inherently the strongest, most unreasonable killing weapon in the world.

"Die and go back." A low roar came from Su Chen's throat.

His right fist, wrapped in ultimate Armament Haki and Ryuo dark energy, smashed out violently and without reservation against the Tier 4 venomous python's bloodthirsty maw, which was large enough to swallow a house!
