"This pool is so deep..."

Xu Jun gazed at the dark, rippling pool, a flicker of fear in his eyes.

"It’d have to be, to house a behemoth like the Blood-tooth Python."

"True. And speaking of which, this tree is massive. It’s really one of a kind, even in this Primitive Jungle."

"It is huge. But... why are you in that position?"

Xu Jun was crouched low to the ground, arms dangling in mid-air, looking like he was ready to fall flat at a moment’s notice.

"Brother Chong, didn’t you say the Blood-tooth Python always shot up from the bottom of the pool? If it suddenly appears again, I need to be ready to activate my ability!"

"That makes sense, but you don’t need to be so tense. Ah, whatever. Do what you want..."

Time ticked by. The two tossed several more stones into the water, sending waves rippling across the deep pool, but there was still no sign of the Blood-tooth Python.

"Brother Chong, do you think that thing might have left?"

Chen Chong replied, "It wouldn’t."

He didn’t know why the Blood-tooth Python hadn’t appeared yet, but ’the intel is never wrong. If it says the Blood-tooth Python is still here, then it’s definitely still here!’

The two stared into the depths of the pool, no longer speaking, and a heavy silence settled between them.

After a long pause, Xu Jun asked hesitantly, "The people from the Swordsmanship Club... are they really still alive?"

Chen Chong shook his head. "I don’t know."

Xu Jun continued, "We saw a lot of bodies on our way here. We didn’t see anyone from the Swordsmanship Club, but there were plenty of people who’d been swallowed by the Blood-tooth Python, plus chunks of flesh mangled beyond recognition. It’s impossible to tell who was who."

"But I really hope the members of the Swordsmanship Club aren’t dead. They’re some of the only people we know from all these schools, and they were good to work with..."

Chen Chong didn’t reply. ’Honestly, he didn’t want the members of the Swordsmanship Club to be among the dead either, but...’

’The chances were slim.’

’This place was littered with corpses and flowing with rivers of blood. The ferocity of the Blood-tooth Python spoke for itself. An ordinary person had no chance of fighting it; there was only one way this could end for them: death.’

’Even if the members of the Swordsmanship Club were stronger than the average person, they were still ordinary humans. In that regard, they were no different from anyone else here.’

’If their bodies weren’t among those found at the scene, there was really only one other possibility: they had been swallowed whole by the Blood-tooth Python...’

’If that were true, it would be a shame.’

’Given their character and skills, he had even considered recruiting them for his team.’

’If they were alive, he could still save them. But if they were already dead...’

’Then he would just have to focus on dealing with the Extraordinary Creature.’

Compared to saving people, Chen Chong’s primary goal was always to kill the Blood-tooth Python. That was his most direct reason for coming here.

This wasn’t just about his own safety; it was about the safety of everyone at the school.

Otherwise, if it managed to escape back underground, become a host for the Bloodthirsty Vine King, and accumulate enough power to ascend to an S-Class Extraordinary Creature, everyone would be doomed!

’Where the hell is it? Why hasn’t it shown itself?’

Chen Chong muttered to himself. For a while now, his Primal Instinct had been flaring up.

A vague sense of danger kept prickling at the back of his mind.

’This sense of danger wasn’t as intense as the first time the Blood-tooth Python had targeted him by the river. Perhaps it was because he had grown stronger, and the threat the python posed to him was diminishing.’

’As a result, the sense of threat conveyed by his Primal Instinct was also weaker.’

’It was a difficult feeling to put into words. But if he had to describe it...’

’Back then, Chen Chong had possessed few abilities; he was only marginally stronger than an ordinary person. The mere fact that a creature like the Blood-tooth Python had its eyes on him was enough for his Primal Instinct to signal a life-threatening crisis.’

’He’d had no chance of fighting it. The moment he was discovered would be the moment he died!’

’But now, the threat was just that—a threat. It didn’t come with the heart-stopping palpitations of a true life-or-death situation. It was still terrifying, but it didn’t feel like he was on the verge of death.’

’Even if he couldn’t defeat it, he could rely on his current strength to get away and survive...’

’The sense of danger might have varied in intensity, but its source was identical.’

’That proved it was nearby, maybe even secretly watching them already. But why... why was there no sign of it?’

There wasn’t even the slightest disturbance in the deep pool to suggest a massive creature surfacing.

"Brother Chong, are you hearing that?"

"Yeah, I hear it."

As one, they both looked up. The branches and leaves of the giant tree that grew beside the pool were shaking nonstop.

A wind had picked up in the jungle at some unknown point, gusting intermittently, causing the surrounding vegetation to rustle and then fall silent.

And now, the wind was picking up again...

It wasn’t just this one giant tree; countless others in the Sky Pit were rustling as well. But this particular tree was shaking the most violently.

Chen Chong had wondered if the Blood-tooth Python could be hiding in the tree, but he had already scanned it carefully more than once and found no sign of the beast.

’Clearly, the chances of it hiding in the tree were extremely low...’

Just then, his Primal Instinct, which had been a steady thrum, suddenly flared violently.

Chen Chong’s pupils contracted. He whipped his blade out and stared intently at the pool.

’His Primal Instinct was still getting stronger, escalating from a sense of major crisis to a full-blown, life-threatening alarm...’

The pool remained placid, without a single ripple, let alone the ever-growing black shadow the others had spoken of.

’His Primal Instinct... was still blaring its warning, each pulse more intense than the last!’

’There was no sign of the Blood-tooth Python in the water. And looking up, there was nothing but wind-shaken branches!’

’Nowhere in the surroundings, either...’

’How is this possible?’

Shocked, Chen Chong’s mind raced, frantically cycling through every possibility.
