Soon, the core became shriveled up, and the Black-scaled Giant Pythons regressed into a black egg, with the shell being the suppressive force of the core replicating. White sprouts began to grow and spread around the egg. Shen Fei added two drops of blood, which seeped into the eggshells. Wisps of white mist then emerged from it and wafted into the air.

"Hiss, hiss!"

The Black-scaled Giant Python's body kept squirming and making terrible noises. It wanted to break free and escape. However, its body was too large for it to successfully wriggle out of the eggshell.

"Alright, the Black-scaled Giant Python should be waking up soon. Let's get ready to start!" Shen Fei said.

"Yes, sir!" Everyone immediately took out a bottle of spirit wine each. Spirit wine was a temporary cultivation-boosting supplement. They consumed the spirit wine and began to circulate the Heavenly Mystic Mantra to regulate the strength of their bodies. Once the Black-scaled Giant Python woke up, the real trouble would begin.

While everyone circulated their Qi, wisps of black smoke rose from the Black-scaled Giant Python's abdomen. The black smoke grew thicker and thicker until it finally formed a black balloon that floated into the air. 

Seeing this, everyone revealed shocked expressions.

"How is this happening?"

Everyone could not believe it because the Black-scaled Giant Python had completely lost its aura. Moreover, how were they going to obtain the beast core in the python's body?

Just as everyone puzzled over this, countless black tentacles suddenly shot out from the black balloon and wrapped around everyone.

Shen Fei frowned. 'What's going on?'

Feeling the coldness coming from the tentacles, the students could not help but let out panicked cries. 

"Help! Help!" 

"Instructor Shen Fei, help me!"

Hearing this, Shen Fei quickly ordered his Flame Owl, "Flame Owl, Blazing Charge!"

"Coo, coo!" In the next second, the Flame Owl spat flames at the black tentacles. 

Immediately, a series of crackling sounds came from the burning tentacles as they withered away and turned into a pile of mud.

Seeing that its attack was effective, the Flame Owl became excited. It flew in and devoured the mud. As it ate, it did not forget to continue releasing flames to burn the black mud.

"Hiss!"

The Black-scaled Giant Python let out another furious hiss. Its body kept twisting, trying to escape from the eggshell, but it was still futile.

"Flame Owl, there it is! Burn the Black Scaled Python's core!" Shen Fei ordered again. The Flame Owl flapped its wings and shot its flames at the exposed core.

"Snarl!" The Black-scaled Giant Python wailed in pain. It grew furious at the sight of its core being scorched. It twisted even more violently, trying to break free from its fiery prison. However, the Black-scaled Giant Python's struggles only made the flames envelope it even more tightly. 

"Roar!" In the next moment, the Black-scaled Giant Python suddenly opened its mouth and spat something that looked like black fire at the students.

The students were caught off-guard and some of them were struck by the black flames. They suddenly cried out miserably. Some were either instantly roasted by the flames, had their clothes burned away, or had half their bodies covered in angry red burns. They were all in terrible states.

"Hmph!" Shen Fei's eyes flashed coldly. "Of course this Black-scaled Giant Python would still be able to use this much power."

He knew that the Black-scaled Giant Python could possess such terrifying strength because during its lifetime, it had devoured countless spirit herbs, beast cores, and blood. It really should not come as a surprise that the Black-scaled Giant Python's powerful strength was unhindered despite its restricted size and mobility.

"Instructor Shen Fei, what should we do?" a young man beside Shen Fei asked in horror.

Shen Fei narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "Keep circulating the mantra!" 

Hearing this, the remaining students nodded and circulated the Heavenly Mystic Mantra to continue absorbing the python's blackened core. Not long after, the black core completely melted and turned into a pile of black ash, which then dispersed into the air. 

The Black-scaled Giant Python's power was also gradually absorbed.

Shen Fei and the others heaved a sigh of relief. Although they managed to kill the Black-scaled Giant Python, the core and the beast's blood were the most important acquisitions. These would be of great benefit to their cultivation of the Heavenly Mystic Mantra in the future.

However, the corpse of the Black-scaled Giant Python was useless, and its consciousness was long gone. Thus, everyone left the Black-scaled Giant Python's body alone and gathered their thoughts to prepare for the next phase of the plan. 

Shen Fei removed the Black Scaled Giant Python's core and tucked it into his storage ring. He suddenly felt something strange and closed his eyes to sense the fluctuations around him. Then, he saw a terrifying pressure coming from afar.

Rumble!

Before Shen Fei and the others could react, they were hit by a huge force wave and were sent crashing into the ground. Some of the students even fainted.

Aloy's expression changed and she hurriedly shouted, "Crap! It's from a mutant beast! Everyone, quickly gather together and don't run around!" 

Everyone gathered together quickly. Then, Shen Fei looked into the distance and saw a huge shadow charging toward their location.

The shadow was ten meters tall and was completely black, like a small black mountain. Under the sunlight, it emitted its own dark glow. It looked extremely sinister, like a monster that had crawled out of an abyss.

In the next moment, Shen Fei and the others were hit once more by the terrifying force wave and everyone fell to the ground again.

"This... What's going on?"

"Damn it, why did such a scary force wave suddenly appear?"

"Is something coming at us?"

"Is it another Emperor-tier Black-scaled Giant Python?!"

When they saw the appearance of the approaching black creature, Shen Fei and the students revealed shocked expressions. 

It really was another Black-scaled Giant Python. This one in particular appeared several times stronger than the previous ones they had fought.

In the next second, the Black-scaled Giant Python came within striking distance of Shen Fei and the others. It whipped its huge tail at them.

"This Black-scaled Giant Python is much more powerful than the last one. We're no match for it at all!" someone screamed as he stared at the python in horror.

The Black-scaled Giant Python was very large and tough as steel. The cultivators did not expect it to be so fearsome!

Shen Fei was also cursing in his heart.
