Staring at the giant snake, Mia'er was completely lost, her mind blank. Even if the snake was not poisonous, just its massive mouth could swallow a cow whole.
With such a giant snake, could she possibly survive?
While Mia'er was utterly at a loss as to what to do, Ye Qiu also had a grave expression. If the beasts they encountered yesterday were special cases, then how could they explain this giant snake in front of them?
Ye Qiu had reason to believe there must be something unknown on this island, and it was this unknown existence that caused the animals on the island to mutate into savage beasts.
"Get back!"
Ye Qiu gripped his dagger, his gaze fixed on the giant snake.
Upon hearing Ye Qiu's words, Mia'er dared not say anything more and ran back as if escaping for her life, not daring to go too far. There were too many unimaginable things in the jungle, and if she were too far from Ye Qiu, there would be no chance of survival.
As Mia'er backed away, the giant snake didn't even glance at her. Its intelligence wasn't low, perceiving that Ye Qiu wasn't easy to deal with. Its eyes, glowing faintly, were locked onto Ye Qiu.
"Swish!"
After a long standoff, Ye Qiu finally moved, charging at the giant snake with his dagger.
The giant snake saw Ye Qiu move, and it raised its head, quickly attacking.
As the giant snake moved, all the obstructing vegetation was cut down. With an initial glance, Ye Qiu estimated the snake was at least twenty meters long, meaning it was at least ten times the size of Ye Qiu!
No hard to imagine, once it opened its mouth, not just one Ye Qiu, but even ten could be swallowed in a single gulp!
Sure enough!
The giant snake lunged, opening its massive maw, with two fangs shining like longswords, terrifying under the sunlight.
"Clang!"
Ye Qiu's dagger struck the giant snake's head, only producing sparks, unable to cause any damage.
The scales on the snake were as hard as steel!
Ye Qiu's expression changed. Such a powerful opponent was unlike anything he'd seen before.
Perhaps it was Ye Qiu's dagger that provoked the giant snake's anger, for it swung its tail, causing a great wind to rise.
Ye Qiu quickly evaded the giant snake's attack, but the assault didn't stop. With a rumbling crash, a tree, large enough that an adult could barely wrap their arms around it, was felled by the snake, leaving the battlefield in chaos.
This power could only be compared to a speeding train, perhaps?
Ye Qiu was extremely solemn. If hit by the giant snake, he would surely be severely injured. For a normal person, it would mean being crushed to pieces.
Facing this absurdly strong giant snake, Ye Qiu advanced instead of retreating, charging forward with his dagger.
The fierce battle between the man and the snake in the jungle was exceptionally brutal. Wherever the shockwaves from their fight spread, it turned into open ground.
The great wind howled, dust billowing, with every tree snapping causing the earth to tremble.
All the small animals, insects, and birds around fled desperately under such might.
Mia'er was stunned, frozen!
She knew Ye Qiu was strong, but never imagined he was strong enough to fight such a formidable giant snake to a standstill.
"Clang!"
Again, a sound echoed.
"Hiss... hiss..."
Finally, the giant snake let out a painful hiss, and scarlet blood spurted out.
The fight had reached a point where the giant snake was finally wounded!
But, such an injury wasn't enough to kill the giant snake; instead, it only unleashed its ferocity.
The giant snake opened its fangs, lunging at Ye Qiu with astonishing speed.
In the nick of time, Ye Qiu jumped aside. With a "boom," a large hole appeared where he had stood just moments earlier. Fortunately, he had moved quickly; otherwise, he would have been flat as a pancake.
Ye Qiu's battle experience was extensive. Seizing the opportunity when the giant snake hadn't recoiled, he leapt onto its head, locking his legs tightly around its neck.
The snake struggled fiercely, thrashing its head to throw Ye Qiu off, but it underestimated Ye Qiu's strength. Ye Qiu clung firmly to its neck, and no amount of thrashing could dislodge him.
Taking advantage of this moment, Ye Qiu hammered his fists repeatedly onto the snake's head.
"Bam Bam Bam!"
The sound of fist striking flesh was immensely satisfying, and even with its tough scales, being hit repeatedly in the same spot made the snake begin to feel the pain.
Soon, under Ye Qiu's relentless blows, the snake's head was bleeding, driving it mad, crashing frantically into a nearby tree.
"Oh, boy!"
This startled Ye Qiu, who quickly jumped off the snake's head. After the snake snapped the tree, Ye Qiu leapt back onto the snake's head, frantically pounding the freshly injured area.
The snake felt wronged, as if it had never seen anyone as shameless as Ye Qiu, who could easily neutralize its every attack and respond with ferocity.
Time passed, and the snake's blood reddened the entire ground. Even Ye Qiu felt his fists were splitting open and his hands were numbing with pain.
Yet, he never considered stopping. He fully intended to fight the snake to the death.
Under Ye Qiu's relentless assault, the giant snake finally couldn't take it anymore. With a "boom," it crashed to the ground, dead.
Ye Qiu also fell from the snake's head, lying on the ground, panting heavily.
Fighting the snake, danger was ever-present, and a slight misstep meant being crushed to pieces. Fortunately, it was over.
"Ye, Ye Qiu, are you okay?"
From a distance, Mia'er shouted. Although the snake was dead, its body lying there was still menacing, and Mia'er dared not approach.
"I'm fine..."
After resting for a while, Ye Qiu felt a bit recovered and stood up from the ground.
Then, Ye Qiu thrust his dagger into the snake's wounded area, slashing forcefully, causing its blood to gush like a spring.
The snake blood was extremely nourishing. On the brink of exhaustion, Ye Qiu didn't hesitate to drink from the snake!
As the snake blood entered his system, Ye Qiu felt his entire body burn with vitality, as if the long-stalled bottleneck began to show signs of loosening.
