Chapter 27: Snake Hunting

Chapter 27: Snake Hunting
As time went by, the violent demon bear on the opposite side had been completely wrapped up by the purple-gold dragon-patterned python. The original roar of the bear gradually cooled down and turned into a faint whimpering sound, and finally everything fell into silence.

And when the battle was over, the purple-gold dragon-patterned python actually swallowed the violent demon bear whole. Its originally extremely slender body seemed to have become much thicker, especially the place where the violent demon bear's body entered was like a balloon, which looked very unbalanced.

The speed and all other aspects had dropped significantly. At this time, the Purple-Gold Dragon-Patterned Python was obviously full. However, Yang Ping'an only observed the Purple-Gold Dragon-Patterned Python from a distance and had no intention of taking action.

Combining the memories of his past and present lives, Yang Ping'an understood that hunting snakes was very difficult, especially since the Purple-Gold Dragon-Patterned Python looked weak, but having just won a victory it might be stronger than ever before. As long as it was ruthless enough to give up the food in its body, its fighting power could soar at any time.

In the following time, Yang Ping'an followed the purple-gold dragon-patterned python from a distance until he found its nest, and then he began to prepare for action.

Time passed quickly, and he stayed in the Star Dou Great Forest for more than twenty days. Recently, Yang Ping'an had been secretly observing near the purple-gold dragon-patterned python's den, waiting for the best opportunity to hunt the snake.

According to the current season, snakes do not need to hibernate in the summer. Although the Purple-Gold Dragon Python does not like to leave the snake cave and is relatively leisurely, consuming less energy, but considering its powerful bloodline, the energy of the last violent demon bear was indeed very much, but snakes only consume half a month to two months at most and must hunt once, and the next hunt will be the best opportunity.

On this day, the purple-gold dragon-patterned python crawled out of its nest again, apparently preparing to hunt.

After careful observation, Yang Ping'an waited until the purple-gold dragon-patterned python was completely gone, then he began to treat the original ground with gloves. Snake soul beasts are completely unable to dig pits. As long as their entire bodies are like arms, they can move freely in various pits. The only thing that can really work is fishing for snakes.

Yang Ping'an dug a shallow pit directly on a road that must be passed around the purple-gold dragon-patterned python's cave. The diameter of the shallow pit was more than ten meters, but the depth was more than ten centimeters. Then he filled the pit with caltrops. The caltrops were very simple to make, and they were all composed of four spikes. They were used to deal with war horses and armies in ancient wars in the original world.

Moreover, these caltrops are coated with various colorless and odorless poisons. These poisons were recently collected by Yang Ping'an to deal with this purple-gold dragon-patterned python.

Above the caltrops is a huge wire mesh. The entire wire mesh is made of very precious metal. It is very thin and tough. The edges of the wire mesh are all inverted. As long as the enemy is caught, the mesh will generally become tighter and tighter.

Finally, Yang Ping'an covered the wire mesh with thick plants, which were exactly the same as the original plants and did not look like they had been damaged at all. He even deliberately painted the traces left by the purple-gold dragon-patterned python after walking.

After everything was done, Yang Ping'an let the Purple Gold Mastiff search for the scent to find the Purple Gold Dragon Patterned Python.

This purple-gold dragon-patterned python was indeed very powerful. In just two days, it had hunted down another three thousand year old soul beast. This time it was an explosive long-tusked boar, which was also a very good power-type soul beast.

Especially since this explosive long-tusk boar is larger than the original violent demon bear, the movement speed of the purple-gold dragon-patterned python seems to be more affected.

Yang Ping'an silently observed the purple-gold dragon-patterned python until it walked to the trap, then he reached out and grabbed it hard. The eight ropes of the wire mesh flew up from the ground and quickly interlocked with each other, wrapping up the entire purple-gold dragon-patterned python.

Although the purple-gold dragon python was moving slowly, it was caught off guard by this attack, but it reacted very quickly, swinging its tail quickly to create a breakthrough. Yang Pingan also knew that this was a critical moment, and he didn't care about hiding. He threw out several crossbow arrows in his hand quickly. These crossbow arrows did not attack the purple-gold dragon python, but went straight through the huge steel net and penetrated the steel net. The entire steel net was directly reduced by a large circle due to the blockage of the crossbow arrows.

But the purple-gold dragon-patterned python struggled desperately and even spit out the explosive long-tusked boar that it had already swallowed into its stomach.

After the Exploding Tusky Boar was spit out, the Purple-Gold Dragon-Patterned Python's strength increased greatly. It swung its whole body desperately, and even swung its tail desperately, hitting the branch where the steel net was hanging, breaking the tree directly. The Purple-Gold Dragon-Patterned Python also fell from the sky to the ground with the snake and the steel net, and finally found a place where it could bear the force.

That's because of its swaying, all the camouflage and leaves on the ground were blown away, and all that was left were sharp caltrops.

But Yang Ping'an knew that the situation was extremely dangerous at this moment. Although the purple-gold dragon-patterned python had been caught in the net, it was not yet completely safe.

Yang Ping'an gritted his teeth, took out an iron crossbow and kept shooting arrows at the purple-gold dragon-patterned python, focusing on its eyes and abdomen. Even if he missed, he could gradually nail the steel net down and make it shrink.

As Yang Ping'an shot desperately, various sized crossbow wounds appeared on the body of the Purple Gold Dragon Patterned Python. Moreover, as it swung desperately, the steel net became tighter and tighter under the effect of the crossbow arrows.

Finally, when the steel net was completely formed into a ball, it had already tightly strangled the entire Purple-Gold Dragon-Patterned Python. Especially as the Purple-Gold Dragon-Patterned Python struggled desperately, wounds had been left on its body by the steel net.

As time went by, Yang Ping'an had run out of arrows, and even the swords that were originally planned to be used to hunt ordinary soul beasts were all stabbed into the purple-gold dragon-patterned python.

After half an hour, the struggle of the Purple-Gold Dragon-Patterned Python began to become weaker and weaker, and its breath gradually began to become lower. Not only did it have various arrow wounds, knife wounds and sword wounds, but its entire body was also covered with caltrops, and it looked like it had a bit of trypophobia.

But Yang Ping'an did not dare to be careless at all. Snakes are one of the most cunning of all soul beasts, and they also have the strongest vitality. Some snake soul beasts can still bite people even after their heads are chopped off. Playing dead and attacking the enemy is also what snakes are best at.

After waiting for half a day, the purple-gold dragon-patterned python, which was originally dying, suddenly jumped up and seemed to use all its strength to pounce on Yang Ping'an. This was probably its last blow.

Yang Ping'an was well prepared and his body retreated at this moment. The place where Yang Ping'an was originally located collapsed, and the purple-gold dragon-patterned python fell directly into a deep pit with its snake and net. The pit was only two meters in size but three meters deep.

After the entire purple-gold dragon-patterned python fell into the deep pit, it was really like a piece of meat, in a completely desperate situation.
