Chapter 588: Chapter 587: Snake Body with Turtle Shell

The black python swiftly charged from the side, and with one bite, it ripped off the Nine Cold Jade Sword that had just burst forth.

Su Yang furrowed his brow. The Nine Cold Jade Sword contained the power of the Nine Cold Jade, and the might of this move was extremely formidable. Yet, it had been dragged down by the black python. Could the strength of this black python truly be so overpowering?

The Sect Master definitely didn’t possess such strength, and as for the River God Jade in his hand, Su Yang had seen it – its power was roughly equivalent to the power of the three pieces of Divine Beast Jade Stone he had on him. Relying solely on that piece of River God Jade would have been impossible to accomplish this feat.

Therefore, the true power must not have come from the Sect Master nor the River God Jade, but from this Sect-Protecting Great Formation.

"Hahahaha..." The Sect Master burst into laughter, "The Sect-Protecting Great Formation has been activated. Show me whatever moves you have left. Otherwise, once I make my move, you will no longer have a chance!"

Su Yang studied the surrounding black qi for a while. He could feel the strength of this black qi; it was very powerful, but he didn’t know the origin of this black qi.

And evidently, the Sect Master’s River God Jade could control this black qi. Which meant that the Sect-Protecting Great Formation wasn’t arranged by the Sect Master himself but must have been laid down by someone else. The Sect Master had gained control over this great formation through the River God Jade!

Could it be that this Sect-Protecting Great Formation was left behind by the previous Divine Farmer Sect? Or, was it left by the person who destroyed the Divine Farmer Sect?

The crowd around them, seeing Su Yang remaining silent and not making a move, all thought that Su Yang had been frightened and thus burst into laughter.

"Master Su of Pingnan Province, that’s all you have? What, have you been scared out of your wits by the Sect Master’s formidable might and dare not make a move?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, to think you dare call yourself a master with such strength? It’s truly laughable!"

"I’ve said it before, you can strut around in Pingnan Province, but this is Pingbei Province. To think you’d dare to cause trouble at the River God Sect, you’re truly courting death!"

The crowd’s mockery was relentless, and Zhao Wuyuan was particularly excited, declaring, "Sect Master, kill him, kill him! Su, do you still dare to be arrogant now?"

Su Yang ignored these people’s taunting. He placed his hands together and chanted the Six Syllables Exorcism True Words, "Om Mani Padme Hum!"

With each recitation, Su Yang’s body grew larger, and gradually, a golden light shimmered around him.

The people were immediately dumbstruck; they had never seen such a phenomenon.

The Sect Master was also stunned, but he quickly regained his composure and sneered, "Playing tricks and feigning deity, even if you can grow bigger than the sky, could you possibly escape my Sect-Protecting Great Formation? Break it for me!"

Amidst the roar, the black python reappeared, roaring as it lunged toward Su Yang.

At this moment, Su Yang’s body had grown to half its size again, nearly three meters tall, resembling a small giant. But in front of the python, he still seemed somewhat small; the body of the python was as thick as a barrel, appearing quite terrifying.

Although it was formed of black qi, it looked incredibly lifelike, and every one of its fangs was exceptionally clear when it opened its mouth.

The gaping maw aimed at Su Yang, who also released his hands and sent a punch directly toward the top of the python’s head.

Su Yang’s punch was also imbued with magic, sending the python reeling back. However, Su Yang also took several steps back himself.

The python’s tail swept across in momentum and wrapped around Su Yang’s waist. Just like how an ordinary python ensnares its prey, the giant serpent swiftly coiled around Su Yang thrice, firmly imprisoning him within its grasp before lunging forward with its gaping maw once again.

With a low shout, Su Yang reached out with both hands, grabbing the python’s upper and lower jaws and forcibly prying its mouth open.

Unable to bite Su Yang, the python’s constricting force rapidly intensified, clearly intending to squeeze the life out of him.

But Su Yang wasn’t just waiting for death; with both hands controlling the python’s mouth, the Nine Cold Jade Sword once again took flight, swiftly striking towards the python’s body.

Entangled with Su Yang, the python had no ability to block the Nine Cold Jade Sword. Just as the sword was about to cleave into the python, a strange thing occurred: a massive tortoise shell materialized, enveloping most of the python’s body.

The Nine Cold Jade Sword struck the tortoise shell and was unexpectedly repelled, while the tortoise shell remained unscathed, as if it hadn’t been hit at all.

Su Yang was taken aback. A serpent with a tortoise shell? How did this remind him of the creature he had encountered in the underground water cave?

However, that creature seemed even more ferocious, with a tortoise shell, a serpent body, and the head of a crocodile—stranger still.

"Hahaha..." the Sect Master laughed arrogantly, "You thought you could defeat the Formation Spirit? You’re dreaming. The Formation Spirit, left by a Terrestrial Immortal, has a tortoise shell that can withstand the strikes of Earth Immortals. Do you think you’re an Earth Immortal?"

Su Yang’s expression turned frosty; from their recent clash, he knew the Sect Master’s words were true. Indeed, the tortoise shell could withstand the attacks of Earth Immortals. Alone, Su Yang simply couldn’t breach it!

"Young Master Su..." Lin Qing shouted anxiously from afar; Su Yang seemed to be in grave danger.

Zhao Wuyuan sneered, "Hmph, your Young Master Su is about to die before your eyes. How do you feel about that?"

Lin Qing’s face turned pale, and in a trembling voice, she said, "Please... Please don’t kill Young Master Su..."

"He’s seeking his own death; who else can be blamed?" laughed Zhao Wuyuan. "Hey, Su, I’ll give you a chance now. Kneel down and beg the Sect Master for mercy, and you might still be left with a whole corpse!"

Su Yang’s face was icy as he roared, "Petty tricks, what can they do to me! Open for me!"

With those words, the humanoid Shadow Phantom at Su Yang’s back strode forward. Its eyes, which disdained all beings, opened once more, and as it reached the python, it opened its mouth wide and somehow swallowed part of the python’s body whole.

Since the python was made of force and not flesh, it didn’t feel pain. But after just a few bites by the Shadow Phantom, half of the python’s body had been devoured, and Su Yang was able to break free.

The Sect Master’s face changed drastically from a distance, and with a trembling voice, he said, "How... How is this possible?"

In fact, Su Yang had been prepared for this eventuality and had been accumulating the power of Devouring the Heavens. Su Yang himself was unable to break free from the python, and the Nine Cold Jade Sword was also unable to penetrate the python’s tortoise shell. However, in the face of Devouring the Heavens, none of that mattered!

Whether tangible or intangible, as long as Su Yang possessed sufficient strength, he could devour it.

Of course, such an act wasn’t without cost. If Su Yang could control the devoured power, it was fine, but if he couldn’t control it or if it far exceeded his own strength, then he was in danger, similar to the Sect Master’s earlier predicament!
