Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Dissociation Trial of Divine Technique

Translator: 549690339

Da Xuan, Dissociative Mountain.

The mountain towers thousands of meters high, cleaved as if by a giant blade, piercing the firmament.

On the perilous mountain path half-way up, two youths are making their way, one following the other.

The one in front is a lean young man, wearing a straw hat, his features firm and resolute.

The boy behind him looks a few years younger, but is physically robust, with thick eyebrows, large eyes, and an honest demeanor.

At this point, the larger of the two boys wipes the sweat from his forehead and sits down, “Second brother, let’s take a break,” he gasps, “We’ve been walking all day, I can’t go any further.”

The slender boy hands him a water bottle, “There are occasionally wild beasts roaming in these mountains, resting here is not safe. I know of a secluded cave not far ahead. If you’re really tired, we can rest there.”

The larger boy eagerly takes the water bottle, gulps down a few mouthfuls, then curiously asks, “Second brother, are there really immortals here in these mountains?”

“Absolutely, I’ve seen them with my own eyes.” Second brother looks up at the peak of the mountain hidden in the clouds, sounding assuredly.

However, the larger boy is unconvinced, “You’ve been obsessed with this idea since five years ago, always disappearing into the Dissociative Mountain every chance you get. You’ve made so many trips, yet you haven’t found an immortal. I think you’d better let this go. The search for immortality is too elusive. I reckon you should just practice martial arts with me.”

He doesn’t even finish his sentence before the slender young man interrupts, frowning, “Wang Xuanba, you’re beginning to sound as nagging as my mother. If you keep blabbering, you can make your own way down the mountain!”

Wang Xuanba awkwardly scratches the back of his head and wisely chooses to stay silent.

The two continue their ascent along the mountain path.

Before long, a chilling Yin wind gusts through the heart of the mountain.

Wang Xuanba’s ears prick up and his demeanor changes. Stepping in front of Second Brother, he gestured for silence.

“Up ahead…” His eyes narrow, on the verge of issuing a warning, but he suddenly stiffens.

A drop of cold sweat drips from his forehead.

On the mountain path ahead, accompanied by a whispering sound, a gigantic white python slithers down the mountainside.

The python, massive in scale, has a body that’s seven or eight meters long just from what is revealed.

The remainder of its body is hidden amid the mountain foliage, its full length unknown.

The head of the white python is as large as a washbasin, its enormous crimson eyes emit a chilling red glow.

A flickering serpent’s tongue darts out from its gaping maw as it moves along the sheer cliff face.

Seeing the terrifying exotic beast, both Wang Xuanba and the Second Brother are frozen with fear, daring not move an inch, even holding their breath.

The giant python’s colossal body drags along the ground for a while before finally disappearing from their sight.

Phew…

Wang Xuanba releases a long exhale, about to speak when he hears another hurried noise.

The huge serpent’s head unexpectedly returns, appearing suddenly from beneath the overhang, its gaze fixed firmly on the two of them!

Wang Xuanba and the Second Brother freeze once more.

Hiss…

The White Python swaying its head, gradually approaches the two.

The ridiculously enormous jaws open to reveal a gust of fetid wind.

Overshadowed by the python’s oppressive presence, seeing its head about to devour them in one gulp, Wang Xuanba can no longer suppress his fear.

He lets out a mighty roar, his muscles bulging, and his body visibly expands. Leaping up, he swings his clenched fist towards the serpent’s head.

“Ding!”

The sound is of metal clashing against metal!

It’s at this moment that the Second Brother makes his move.

He stamps his foot and the stone beneath disintegrates into a cloud of dust while his body blurs into motion. In a blink of an eye, he is at the serpent’s rear.

With clenched fists turned into stabbing fingers, he launches a flurry of ferocious strikes.

“Ding! Ding! Ding! …”

The sounds of blows raining down fill the air.

However, this barrage from the two does not even break through the python’s skin!

Groaning loudly, the python whips its tail, striking Wang Xuanba.

“Bang!”

Wang Xuanba is sent flying, smashing into the cliff and causing rocks to scatter.

The python doesn’t follow up its attack on Wang Xuanba but instead twists its head around, opening its mighty jaws and lunging towards the Second Brother.

Unable to dodge in time, the Second Brother extends both hands, desperately holding back the python’s mouth.

The White Python emits a strange roar and puts out an extraordinary effort.

The Second Brother’s body almost disappears inside the python’s giant mouth, and although he lets out a muffled grunt, he miraculously manages to hold it back.

After a stalemate, the python becomes enraged, unable to swallow this insignificant human.

It constantly thrashes its body, repeatedly smashing the Second Brother against the mountain path and slope, trying to shake him off.

With every collision, the Second Brother’s fingers, like sharp swords, plunge deeper into the python’s flesh.

After what seems like an eternity, the mountain path is scarred with the impact marks of the Second Brother against the stones, and a flash of intense light glimmers in the python’s eyes. A smoky brown liquid is violently expelled from its mouth.

Barely managing to avoid it hitting his head, the Second Brother is nonetheless drenched in the poison.

“Sizzle…”

Under the corrosive fluid, the Second Brother’s flesh glows with a dark golden light.

He grunts, no longer able to hang on, and is flung aside alongside the unconscious Wang Xuanba.

Coughing up a mouthful of blood, he struggles to his feet, facing the advancing White Python with a hint of defiance in his eyes.

Since that evening, when he witnessed an immortal traversing the skies in the Dissociative Mountain with his own eyes, he had become obsessed with seeking immortality.

He ventured into the mountains countless times hoping to find this immortal and become his disciple.

For this, he had even quarreled with his mother.

Who would have thought that instead of finding the immortal, he would die in the mouth of this beast..
