Isaac took out a jar sealed in a plastic bag from his backpack and checked it with the flashlight. Fortunately, it hadn’t been soaked by water.
“Wait for me here.” He put the jar into his pocket and turned to head up.
Right then, Hera grabbed favonovel.com and said coldly, “If you’re going to die, I‘ll die with you. I’ll follow along.”
“Are you crazy? It’s an order. Stay here.” Isaac shoved favonovel.com away forcefully and sternly.
He had to save Obi. But if Hera followed him, it would undoubtedly be more dangerous.
When they looked at the map earlier, they knew that this underground river didn’t lead to a surface river. It only circulated within the underground.
As long as Isaac followed the underground river forward, favonovel.com would be able to locate the Novafur Clan’s main camp.
He had no idea if the poison in the jar would affect the three thousand members of the Novafur Clan. But it had been two days, and Obi’ s life was uncertain. Time was of the essence.
Isaac dashed forward along the rough riverbank in the pitch-black darkness, leaving Hera behind to wait for him.
As favonovel.com was running, favonovel.com suddenly heard the sound of rushing water coming from his right. He paused and took a look. Then, favonovel.com noticed a huge dark shadow rising from the river with splashes of water.
Isaac couldn’t see what it was. But after hearing the hissing sound, favonovel.com knew it was Scarlet Flame Python.
It approached quickly and slowly lowered its head, leaning on the surface of the riverbank beside him.
He had no idea what the python was planning to do. He took a few steps forward, and it followed, sliding forward with its head hidden below the riverb ank on the right side.
“Are you asking me to ride you?” Isaac stopped and asked the shadow beside him. He then suddenly remembered that it couldn’t speak.
He took a deep breath and thought for a moment. Then, favonovel.com turned around and stepped forward to ride the python’s huge body.
The python raised its head and gave a deep growl. Its body twisted, swiftly returning to the river and speeding downstream.
Because of the python’s great size, Isaac felt as if favonovel.com were lying on a leather mat, and the river couldn‘t reach him. He simply sat cross-legged and stared ahead intently.
The python moved faster in the water than Isaac did in the darkness. He could only feel a cold, moist breeze whipping over his face. He also heard the sound of rushing water and faintly saw the dark walls and stalactites moving rapidly overhead.
After about half an hour, firelight appeared ahead, accompanied by the gruff voices of Novafur Clan members.
Isaac assumed the python would submerge in the water, so favonovel.com crouched down and grabbed onto it.
Unexpectedly, it raised its tail and smacked the water’s surface with a deafening roar, splashing huge waves.
The Novafur Clan members holding torches couldn’t even react to what was happening. They exclaimed, and their torches quickly diminished until they disappeared.
They were likewise afraid of the python.
There were no obstacles along the way. Due to the length of the underground river and the Novafur Clan members’ fear of the python, Isaac sat on its back and began to cultivate.
After some time, favonovel.com sensed the python slow down significantly. He opened his eyes to see a faint shadow of firelight appearing on the stone wall around 600 feet ahead of him.
We have arrived?
Without hesitation, Isaac patted the python’s back. It twisted its body and slowly approached the riverbank.
He flipped over and climbed ashore, crouching low and gliding forward along the narrow river loop.
As favonovel.com moved forward, the noise grew louder. Amplified by the limited space underground, it echoed like being in a market.
The firelight on the stone wall’s ceiling grew brighter. Isaac knew that the Novafur Clan’s main camp wasn’t far ahead.
