I didn't expect that I was the heartthrob.

"Do you feel that the whole mountain is shaking?" One of the female disciples was extremely frightened. She hid behind several fellow disciples, her eyes panicking and full of suspicion.

The others who were also timid huddled together, all counting on Zhu Wenbo to make the decision: "Brother Zhu, what should we do?"

Zhu Wenbo asked everyone to calm down, as he couldn't take any action while things were still unclear.

Everyone was talking at once, confused as to what was going on, and all looked pale with fear at the sudden change.

This group of people have just come out to gain experience, and Zhu Wenbo is the most experienced among them. However, he obviously did not expect to face such a sudden change at this time.

Although Gu Lan has read the original novel, it is a pity that the original novel did not write about this section. Instead, it wrote about the trivialities of the hero and heroine after they came out of the secret realm, mainly for the sake of sweetness. After finally writing about the hero and heroine arriving at Tianyan Sect, it began to write about the daily life of Tianyan Sect.

Now, I don't know where the part about Gu Lan going down the mountain to gain experience deviates from the original work.

Maybe it was because of my arrival that the original plot changed.

Gu Lan seemed to be thinking about something.

Then she opened her eyes wide, and saw that for some unknown reason, a big hole suddenly appeared where Zhu Wenbo had been standing. Zhu Wenbo fell down without any reaction.

The disciples of Tianyan Sect were stunned. Their leader, a Jindan cultivator, didn't even have time to react when faced with the sudden change and fell down directly.

Everyone was dumbfounded and looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Suddenly one of the disciples reacted. Instead of running to check on the situation of his leading brother, he flew into the air on his sword.

Seeing this, others followed suit, and Lingyao was the first to fly away from the top of the mountain on her sword.

Gu Lan was shocked after seeing this. Are all the disciples of Tianyan Sect so heartless? They didn't show any sympathy to their fellow disciples when they were in trouble, and just ran away?

It is true that birds of a feather flock together, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately.

However, good or bad luck is unknown, and my cultivation is shallow, so anyone who doesn’t run is a fool!

Gu Lan also wanted to run, and hurriedly wanted to fly on the sword, but she was still too slow. She only had time to draw the sword, and before she could move, her feet were empty and she fell to the ground.

During the fall, there was no way to control the sword, not to mention controlling the sword, even adjusting the body was difficult. Gu Lan fell all the way and was dizzy, and it took him a long time to land.

Gu Lan fell headfirst, and then Zhu Wenbo limped over. Gu Lan quickly got up. His whole body was almost broken apart, but fortunately he was not hurt.

"I'm here to accompany you." Gu Lan pointed upwards, "Your fellow disciples are too cold-blooded. They all ran away when they saw you fall into the cave. I'm the best and I'm here to accompany you."

Zhu Wenbo was in no mood to joke. He looked solemn as he raised his head to look towards the top of the cave.

Following Zhu Wenbo's gaze, Gu Lan also looked up. He saw that the top of the cave was densely packed with caves of various sizes. Some caves had a little light, while others were dark and mysterious, and no one knew what creatures were hiding inside.

After the two finished their observation, they looked at each other, and Gu Lan mouthed, "Is it a snake cave?"

Zhu Wenbo nodded. Not only the shape of the cave was similar, but even the fishy smell here would immediately make people think of wet and cold snakes.

It seems that the resting place they accidentally chose today was actually above the snake cave.

Today, when Gu Lan was washing the rabbit, he felt strange. How could there be water on the top of the peak? It turned out that this group of snakes dug a hole and somehow squeezed the water from the underground river to flow out from the top of the peak.

There was no point in regretting it now, and both of them wanted to leave quietly without disturbing the snakes resting there.

If they were in an open area, the two would not be afraid, but this was the only open place in the cave. If all the snakes came out of the cave, it would be difficult for them to deal with them.

Gu Lan pointed to a dimly lit cave above his head and motioned Zhu Wenbo to fly towards that cave, and perhaps they would be able to get out.

The two men flew towards the cave entrance on their swords. When they were close to the cave entrance, a gust of cold air suddenly blew out from the cave, and a fishy smell hit them in the face, almost smoking out the rabbit meat they had eaten not long ago.

After calming down, I looked again and saw that the light in the cave was brighter.

"Why do I feel something is wrong?"

"I feel something is wrong too."

"Go!" Gu Lan's face changed and he kicked Zhu Wenbo away. In a flash, a giant python flew out of the cave at the same time.

The giant python is huge, with a body as thick as a bucket, eyes as big as lanterns, and a huge mouth full of fangs and huge teeth.

It was then that Gu Lan and Zhu Wenbo realized that the faint light in the cave was actually its eyes.

This is bad. Once the python comes out, it will fill up the entire cave. What if the snakes in other caves hear the noise and come out? What should we do?

Thinking of this, Gu Lan and Zhu Wenbo both wanted to make a quick decision, so they showed their best skills. Zhu Wenbo had just broken through to the Golden Core stage and survived the thunder tribulation, so he was not fully recovered yet. Gu Lan had just learned the sword from the book "Swordsmanship" and had not yet comprehended it.

The two of them then dealt with the giant python in the cave.

Originally they wanted to end the battle quickly, but they didn't expect that the giant python had cultivated in this sacred mountain and had acquired quite a bit of skills and spirituality. It used its huge body to squeeze Gu Lan and Zhu Wenbo together, making it difficult for them to use their strength.

The two men used their magic swords, but they didn't hurt the giant python at all. Because the giant python had thick scales, the magic swords collided with it, making a sound of metal and stone, and sparks flew everywhere.

Gu Lan was anxious, fearing that the two would be trapped and eventually exhausted and be taken advantage of by the giant python.

She took out the blasting talisman and flew the sword around the giant python's body. She flew very fast and injected spiritual energy into the stones in the cave, scattering the stones in various corners. When the giant python noticed her, she used the spiritual energy to drive the stones to hit the giant python to distract its attention.

Seeing her like this, Zhu Wenbo knew that she had other plans, so he cooperated tacitly and chopped the giant python hard.

He was a sword cultivator, and the way he used his sword to chop the giant python was quite funny. While Gu Lan was applying the talismans, he flew over to him and teased him: "Your sword is quite suitable for chopping things. Why don't you become a swordsman?"

Zhu Wenbo was dodging the python's tail while helping Gu Lan distract the python's attention. Plus, his ankle was sprained and he couldn't move very easily. How could he have the leisure to joke with her? Hearing her relaxed tone, as if she was not in a hurry at all, he couldn't help but frown.

"Shut up, finish this and get out of this damn place."

Gu Lan chuckled and flew over again, "I've looked, and for some reason, there seems to be only one giant python here."

"That's not necessarily true. Didn't you see the mountain of animal bones and skins piled up over there? They must have gone out to look for food and will be back at dawn. I heard that snakes hide during the day and come out at night, but this one is a little strange. It should be the leader of this group of pythons?"

"If that's the case, your fellow junior brothers and sisters will be in trouble." Gu Lan said with a wicked smile.

Hearing this, Zhu Wenbo became even more anxious.

The head master repeatedly told them to take good care of these junior brothers and sisters, especially Junior Sister Lingyao. It was her first time to go out far away, and she had no experience. Although she had a high-level water spirit root, her foundation was not solid. She had just established her foundation. If they were besieged by a group of snakes outside, they might not be able to cope with it.

Thinking of this, Zhu Wenbo's forehead was covered with sweat and he shouted, "Are you okay?"

Just as he finished speaking, Gu Lan swiped his tail beautifully and passed through the giant python's mouth, and flew to Zhu Wenbo. "Just wait and see." Gu Lan blinked, his face full of confidence.

Zhu Wenbo didn't know where her confidence came from. He only saw Gu Lan muttering something with bright eyes. Suddenly, she made a strange seal with her hands and shouted "Break!"

"Boom boom boom!" Several loud noises exploded on the giant python's body.

A piece of hard python scale flew over, and Zhu Wenbo quickly grabbed it with his fingers, only to see flesh and blood under the scale.

He was stunned. Having been practicing as an immortal for such a long time, he had never seen such a strange talisman.
