Chapter 1052 - 943: Eerie Living Creature
The giant python never expected to be poisoned so suddenly; a torrent of a million curses swept through its mind.After a while, it sensed its Divine Soul becoming drowsy and unable to control its body.
"Damn it!"
The giant python's eyes spun chaotically as it desperately sought a solution,
But no matter how hard it thought, it couldn't come up with anything.
Not far away, Duan Gujin observed the giant python staggering and sighed with relief, knowing it was poisoned.
The toxin he had refined was potent, capable of paralyzing the enemy completely in a short span.
Seeing the enemy poisoned, Duan Gujin didn't rush to attack but instead observed intently, his Divine Sense focused on the giant python, predicting it might attempt to use an Escape Technique to flee.
Thus, he kept his Divine Sense locked on the python, preventing a swift escape.
Just as Duan Gujin predicted, the giant python, realizing it was poisoned and unable to counterattack Duan Gujin and Wu Xiuqing, knew the next step was to flee quickly.
But when it found itself unable to mobilize the demonic power in its body, it couldn't stabilize the Eternal Darkness.
Its body descended with the Eternal Darkness onto the Sealing Platform, attempting to maneuver but finding itself unable to control the Eternal Darkness any longer.
Without being mentally connected with the Eternal Darkness, it could only utilize some of its functions.
Now, without demonic power within, it lost control over it.
Watching the giant python's moves, Duan Gujin had a sudden realization; he immediately understood the python likely couldn't control the Eternal Darkness anymore.
"Seems that the Eternal Darkness hasn't acknowledged the giant python as its master!"
Overjoyed, Duan Gujin felt relieved; if this were true, he needn't fear the Eternal Darkness.
Any Treasure, only after recognizing a master, would unleash its full potential.
Without this recognition, many abilities remain dormant.
"That giant python can probably only utilize less than a tenth of the Eternal Darkness's power!"
Confirming that the python hadn't been recognized by the Eternal Darkness, Duan Gujin refrained from launching a fierce attack, opting to see what the python would do next.
"What's happening with it? Why is it like this?"
Wu Xiuqing's voice came through softly to Duan Gujin.
"I've used a poisonous Hidden Weapon on it. It's fallen victim to it and will soon fall unconscious! We don't need to attack it!"
Duan Gujin replied.
"Oh!"
Wu Xiuqing nodded slightly.
A moment later, they watched the giant python collapse to the ground, eyes rolling back, confirming it was poisoned and unconscious.
"Great!"
With his Divine Sense reaching out to affirm its state, Duan Gujin rushed forward to bind the python, immobilizing it.
He then used ropes to tie it up.
The ropes used to bind the python were no ordinary ropes, but crafted from special materials, extremely durable and strong.
Blocking the python's demonic power, Duan Gujin ensured it couldn't harness the power within, even if it regained consciousness, it couldn't break free.
Checking the python's abilities, he found it only possessed the First Level of Martial Saint.
"The python's arrogance earlier should stem from thinking the Eternal Darkness allows it free reign!"
With the Eternal Darkness in hand, Duan Gujin examined it with his Divine Sense.
After a while, his brows knitted tightly.
"My probe can't penetrate the Eternal Darkness; it seems to devour my senses! But how can it recognize a master if a Divine Sense can't enter?"
He pondered for a moment before a possibility occurred to him.
"Could it be that controlling the Eternal Darkness doesn't involve the Human Clan's Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul? Yet, how was it manipulated earlier?"
Duan Gujin swiftly grasped the slumbering python, his Divine Sense probing its body.
After a while, he detected an essence from Exotic Realm Creatures within the python's body.
"Seems this giant python is akin to Zhang Jia Bao; they've fused with Essence Blood from Exotic Realm Creatures, gaining some of their powers!"
His eyes flickered momentarily as a crucial question crossed his mind.
"Where now is the Exotic Realm Creature that provided Essence Blood to Zhang Jia Bao and this python?"
Earlier, Zhang Jia Bao mentioned that after falling into slumber, a new consciousness appeared in his mind, revealing he'd stumbled upon a rare fortune granting strange powers.
If he wished to survive, he'd have to serve this consciousness.
Yet, where that consciousness lurked remained unknown.
Duan Gujin considered extracting information on this hidden entity from the python's memories.
Applying the Divine Control Technique, he forcibly retrieved the python's memories.
Like Zhang Jia Bao, the python too hadn't seen what the Exotic Realm Creature granting the Essence Blood looked like.
Pondering a while, Duan Gujin realized both Zhang Jia Bao and the python had fused with the Exotic Realm Creature's Essence Blood near the Sealing Platform.
"Miss Wu, the Exotic Realm Creature is likely in the vicinity, we need to search around!"
Duan Gujin said.
He then dragged the python onwards toward the left side Sealing Platform.
While Wu Xiuqing led Zhang Jia Bao to the right Sealing Platform.
As Duan Gujin advanced about a kilometer with the python, he suddenly sensed a peculiar aura permeating around.
He immediately raised his guard, preparing for combat.
A gut feeling told him danger was near.
"The Exotic Realm Creature must have sensed the python's presence!"
After considering, he placed the python down and set up a sensing array around it.
The array he set up enhances and broadcasts the aura of living creatures within,
Allowing others to better sense those within the array.
Such sensing arrays are often used to set traps.
After a while, Duan Gujin sensed the Exotic Realm Creature's aura about 100 meters to the left.
"It's there!"
His Divine Sense locked onto the Exotic Realm Creature, but perplexingly, he couldn't pinpoint its exact location despite his efforts.
It seemed the Exotic Realm Creature could travel through space seamlessly, transferring from one point to another without causing spatial disturbances, completely challenging his understanding.
