The Child of Destiny, Me, is Bound to the Villain System? - Chapter 6
"The Child of Destiny, Me, is Bound to the Villain System? - Chapter 6: Demon! Cease Your Outrage!"
Chapter 6: Demon! Cease Your Outrage!
After learning this information, Lin Ye stopped using spiritual energy.
Whenever he encountered obstructing ferocious beasts, he simply killed them with a single punch.
Indeed, after such actions, the number of ferocious beasts coming to challenge him decreased significantly.
Though he occasionally encountered those who were unobservant, the ease he experienced increased by leaps and bounds.
He continued westward.
Soon, Lin Ye heard the sound of battle ahead.
After concealing his presence, he cautiously approached and hid behind a large tree to observe the situation.
He saw a small group of three to five cultivators working together to fight a giant python.
The python was as thick as four or five people. If he had seen such a creature in his previous life, it would have likely scared him to death.
But in this strange and wondrous world, encountering such a python was quite normal.
It seemed the python was guarding a red fruit. Even from a distance, Lin Ye could clearly smell its fragrant aroma.
Obviously, this fruit was no ordinary object.
The group of three to five cultivators consisted of both men and women. Judging by their uniform attire, they must be disciples of some sect.
The python's body bore countless white marks, evidently inflicted by the sharp weapons of these cultivators.
However, its scales were tough enough that the blows hadn't pierced its flesh, leaving only superficial scratches.
"Roar!"
The python let out a fierce roar, stirring up sand and stones, startling countless ferocious beasts away.
Its roar resembled that of a true dragon, chilling to the bone. The bloody stench emanating from its gaping maw caused the surrounding plants to wither instantly.
Seeing this, the group of cultivators grew panicked.
Especially the two girls, who nearly dropped their spirit swords in their fright.
Clearly, these people were novices on their first expedition, lacking experience.
"Hold your swords steady! This Zhu Fruit was discovered by us. If we can take it, our cultivation resources will no longer be a problem!"
"This beast is only at the early Gold Core stage. If we work together, we can definitely subdue it!"
"Form the sword array!"
Under the lead cultivator's stern command, the group calmed down and quickly surrounded the python. Their spirit swords transformed into streaks of light, and under the barrage of sword qi, more white marks appeared on the python's scales.
Clang clang clang...
The sound of metal clashing rang out intermittently.
Although these cultivators were only at the Foundation Establishment stage, with the strongest among them being at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, their coordination allowed them to suppress a Gold Core stage python.
They must undoubtedly be disciples of a major sect.
Amidst the surging spiritual energy, the python writhed its body, releasing waves of corrosive poison gas.
However, the poison had no effect on these cultivators, likely due to some anti-poison talismans or artifacts they possessed.
Soon, under relentless attacks, the python became increasingly desperate. After letting out an angry roar toward the sky, it quickly fled, glancing back不甘地 at the red fruit as it escaped.
"Phew... Success! Success!!!"
"Great! Now our cultivation resources are secured!"
"This damn beast dared to compete with us for resources? It was asking for death!"
The group laughed loudly as they approached the Zhu Fruit.
Greed filled each of their faces.
"This Zhu Fruit belongs to us!"
The leader reached out to grab it, but at that moment, a black shadow suddenly lunged from atop the fruit and bit the leader's finger.
"Ah!!!"
The leader let out a shocked scream. The others had no idea what had happened.
"That... that's a killer bee??? Quick! Someone give me an antidote... quick... give..."
Within moments, the leader's face turned a deep purple-black, his eyeballs bulged outward, and his entire body seemed to suffer immense pain. He stretched out his hands, pleading for help from his companions.
Seeing this, the other cultivators didn't dare approach him. They retreated like they were avoiding a plague.
In less than a few seconds, the man collapsed to the ground, his body beginning to disintegrate like foam, evaporating into nothingness.
"How could there be killer bees here?!"
Whoosh!
While the group was still stunned by their companion's death, another massive python burst forth from the nearby forest.
The python had returned!
It must have known about the killer bees!
The python twisted its enormous body, its vertical pupils revealing a mocking, almost human-like expression.
"Roar!!!"
The python unleashed a deafening roar and charged fiercely toward the cultivators.
Without their leader, they were completely overwhelmed. The python's body weighed thousands of jin; a casual swipe sent them flying backward.
"You damned beast! I'll—"
Plop!
Before one of the cultivators could finish speaking, the python swallowed him whole. Seeing this, the remaining members panicked even more.
Their spirit swords were wielded chaotically. Despite being Foundation Establishment cultivators, they couldn't even use basic spells properly.
Far behind a tree, Lin Ye was conversing with the system.
"If I go help them now, wouldn't that be what a Chosen One should do?"
"No, the Chosen One can seize opportunities anywhere. You should wait until they're all dead, then kill the python and take the Zhu Fruit."
"What kind of nonsense is this! I'm a Chosen One who believes in truth, goodness, and beauty!"
"Uh... aren't you forgetting something? Regardless of whether you believe in truth, goodness, and beauty, those people are almost done for."
"Huh?!"
Lin Ye quickly exited the system interface and looked around.
Indeed, the situation was dire.
At this point, the python was going berserk, devouring the cultivators one after another. Only two remained, but they had somehow been poisoned by the snake venom, collapsing to the ground and losing their ability to resist.
"Demon! Cease your outrage!"
Lin Ye could no longer hold back. His body transformed into a streak of light, shooting straight toward the python.
"Hiss?"
The python turned its head, looking at Lin Ye who had suddenly appeared. It opened its massive jaws, spraying a foul stench directly at him.
Swish...
Lin Ye raised his palm, forming a sword finger. As he swung it, white sword light erupted from his fingertips, manifesting as an unparalleled sword technique.
Though he held no physical sword, his sword finger acted like a heaven-piercing divine blade, invincible and unyielding.
The vast expanse of white sword qi surged like a flood, not appearing as individual beams but converging like ten thousand swords returning to their origin, transforming into a white dragon that crashed down onto the python.
Boom!
The python twisted its body, its hard scales standing upright, shimmering with a dark black glow.
When the white sword dragon collided with the scales, a thunderous explosion shook the earth, instantly destroying the surrounding flora.
As the sword qi wreaked havoc, even the ground split into numerous channels.
The intense collision and terrifying clash demonstrated the power of the sword technique. Centered around Lin Ye's sword finger, an overwhelming sword intent erupted, far surpassing the earlier group's feeble sword array.
