Chapter 007: Transformation

Although the Six-Winged Angel suffered some losses, the two golden eagles were also shocked in secret! After all, these golden eagles were also extraordinary creatures by nature, with feathers as hard as the Six-Winged Angel’s bones!
Yet, despite such tough feathers, several were torn off under the Six-Winged Angel’s fierce scratching!
A golden eagle’s feathers were connected to its most sensitive nerves, and as their feathers were torn off, the two eagles let out loud cries—just like humans scream in extreme pain!
The pain from being scratched by the Six-Winged Angel was so severe that, even after taking off, they couldn’t launch an attack right away. It seemed they were too scared of him.
The bones left behind by the Six-Winged Angel were truly formidable!
While the golden eagles circled in the sky, the giant serpent in the pond also began to move.
This time, the serpent didn’t spit venom. Instead, it opened its mouth, and thick green smoke billowed out. The golden eagles flying in the sky saw the green smoke and flew closer to it, flapping their wings to push the smoke toward Du Fan!
These three beasts even knew how to cooperate with each other!
Although the wind blown by the golden eagles was strong, how could it compare to that of Du Fan, a powerful wind magic master?
Du Fan smiled slightly, waved his hand, and a strong wind swept the green smoke back immediately!
Seeing the green smoke blown back, the giant serpent dived its huge head into the water and disappeared. The two golden eagles let out eerie cries and quickly soared into the sky!
The smoke blown back by Du Fan reached the mountain wall beside the pond. Along with the sound of rocks crumbling, the wall eroded by the green smoke began to crumble, with many stones falling off!
This poisonous smoke had such strong corrosive power!
“This serpent is quite impressive. If captured, it would make a great poisoner,” Du Fan said.
“I’m afraid it would be hard to keep. Just look at its head—it’s as big as a horse. Besides, poisoning is best done secretly. Who would drag such a huge body around to spread poison?” Moses said.
“Valid point,” Du Fan replied with a smile.
The giant serpent’s head retracted into the pond and never came back out. Du Fan waited for a while, growing impatient.
“Hong, come here and try releasing a Star Fall spell on this pond,” Du Fan said, turning to Hong.

As a holy-class elf archer, Hong raised the Elf Bow, surrounded by blazing arrow energy, and shot an arrow into the sky. The two golden eagles flying in the sky saw an arrow shooting upward from the ground and thought it was aimed at them, so they quickly flapped their wings and flew away. The eagles also noticed that this arrow was different from the previous ones—it carried a terrifying aura that made them dare not approach. The arrow disappeared into the sky, and soon, a small meteor rushed down from above the pond, heading straight for it! With a massive shockwave, the entire valley shook. The water in the pond seemed as if a giant hand was splashing it out forcefully, sending water flying into the air. In an instant, the entire valley turned into a world of water! Du Fan quickly cast a spell to block the violent splashing water, allowing the group to avoid getting drenched. Just as the meteor fell into the pond, a high-pitched screech suddenly rang out! A giant python, seventy or eighty meters long, soared into the air! Seventy or eighty meters long—comparable to the length of a dragon, which is only over thirty meters! In other words, this giant python was twice as long as a dragon! No one in the group had ever seen such a thick and long python. Its body was entirely emerald green. The python quickly descended back into the valley, coiling its body like a small mountain. With its head raised, it spat out a blood-red snake tongue, which hissed in the air. “So big! How do we fight it?!” Bashaa shouted loudly. The size of this python was truly enormous—comparable even to a dragon! Although not as thick as a dragon, it was much longer. Soon, the giant python stretched out its head and swept across with a powerful motion. Its upper body swept through, creating a fierce gust of wind. Such a massive body brought an astonishing presence, forcing Du Fan and the others to retreat. The python’s upper body slammed into the mountain wall, its immense force causing the wall to shake—what incredible strength! “How do we fight it?” Moses also asked Du Fan.

“Well then, let’s have some fun with it. Naixiu, take the archers and mages to attack from a distance. With such a big target, haha, we can hit it even with our eyes closed!” Du Fan said with a laugh.
“Liuxi, protect the archers and mages, and pay special attention to those golden eagles in the sky!” Du Fan added to Liuxi.
“Elder brothers, although this snake is huge, I think we can avoid its attacks without trouble. While dodging its attacks, we just need to slowly inflict wounds on it! I don’t believe it can keep going after being struck by a hundred or a thousand swords. Besides, we’re all wearing our Life Gem necklaces, which can protect us from poison! We don’t have to worry about its venom anymore!” After saying that, Du Fan stepped forward.
“Third brother Du Fan, what’s that Life Necklace? I don’t seem to have one,” Bashah asked eagerly upon hearing that it could protect against poison.
After thinking for a moment, Du Fan took out his own Life Necklace and handed it to Bashah.
“This is the Life Necklace, made from the Life Gem of the elves! You must know about the Life Gem, right, second brother?” Du Fan asked.
“Yes, yes, it’s a great thing for protecting against poison,” Bashah replied quickly.
“Mm-hm. This Life Necklace represents the status of an elf elder. Remember to give it back to me after using it,” Du Fan said.
“Then, third brother, what will you use?” Bashah asked promptly after seeing Du Fan give him the necklace.
“Don’t worry about that, second brother. I’ve bathed in the Spring of Life, so basically, I don’t need to wear a Life Necklace either—I’m immune to most poisons,” Du Fan said with a smile.
The giant python slammed its head against the mountain wall, leaving it somewhat dazed.
By the time its head retracted, Du Fan, Moses, and Bashah were already charging at it.
Letting out a strange cry, the giant python raised its upper body and swung violently at the three of them!
Unfazed by the python’s strength, Du Fan raised Frostfall in his hand and thrust it into the python’s body!
The python’s powerful body swept past Du Fan, causing a burst of white light around him as he was sent flying far away. When he landed, another burst of white light appeared, and soon Du Fan got up as if nothing had happened, charging at the python again!
Just as Du Fan plunged his sword into the python’s body, the python recoiled in pain. Seizing this opportunity, Moses also swung his sword at the giant python!

Basha crouched down, raised his axe, and pressed the sharp blade against the python’s flesh! Du Fan’s sword pierced a huge hole in the python’s body, with bright red blood flowing out! Moses’ Sword of War even had an erosive effect—wherever Moses’ sword struck, the flesh rotted away! Basha’s earlier move had also caused severe damage to the giant serpent! Basha simply raised his axe, but by using the serpent’s own strength, he caused a long wound as the serpent’s body slid across the axe blade! The wound was over two meters long! The torn flesh and gushing blood were a horrifying sight! Nayixiu, along with her archers, shot arrows one after another into the python’s body! The magician’s spells also struck the python repeatedly! What had once been a decisive advantage—its huge size—now became a disadvantage, causing it great suffering! The python already had many wounds! It let out a loud scream, and the golden eagles in the sky also cried out loudly. To Du Fan, it seemed as if they were in harmony with each other! “Du Fan, could they have more reinforcements?” Moses asked cautiously seeing this situation. “It’s possible, but who knows what kind of monsters might appear next,” Du Fan replied. This giant python had left a deep impression on Du Fan! A creature of such size, even if it knew nothing, could be a nightmare for enemies just by relying on its enormous size and strength in battle! Thinking of this, Du Fan remembered the scene of the Battle of the Gods he saw the night before—those giant magical beasts with their overwhelming presence, acting like killing machines in war, capable of taking hundreds of lives with a single attack! What was even more terrifying was that this giant python was also a venomous one! If such a magical beast could be tamed and brought into battle, it could directly determine the outcome! Looking at the venom and mist spat out by this giant venomous python, not only was its toxicity extremely strong, but its quantity and range were also enormous! Just as Du Fan was thinking about these issues, something new happened! The giant python kept shrinking, and soon, a man with green skin and bare upper body, holding a long spear, appeared before Du Fan and his group!

This giant python was actually a magical beast above the sacred rank, capable of transforming into a human! As the python transformed, two golden eagles in the sky also changed into men with wings on their backs, bird beaks on their mouths, and golden spears behind them! “You wretches have dared to invade this sacred place—your crimes are unforgivable!” The python turned into a man with green skin, standing nearly three meters tall! Looking at this giant, Du Fan had a strange thought: If such a man went to play basketball in the NBA of his past life, what an incredible impact it would have! He wouldn’t even need a hoop—just stand under it and stuff the basketball in! What are Yao Ming, Shaquille O’Neal, or Howard compared to him? In front of this green-skinned giant, they’re nothing but little kids! “You’ve invaded this sacred place and injured its guardians—what exactly is your intention?” The green giant shouted again. As the man transformed from a python into a human, his wounds naturally shrank significantly. The marks from the arrows were just small blood holes; even Du Fan’s fierce sword strike appeared like a large needle pricking a hole. Even Basha’s wound, over two meters long, didn’t seem like it was caused by accidentally cutting his chest with a small knife! From this perspective, those injuries hadn’t caused any real harm to this giant at all!
