Ji Zan rushed over and pulled Fu Shinan away. He kicked the frenzied wild boar aside. Meanwhile, He Zhu seized the opportunity to pull Molly out.

Molly was trembling in fear, and He Zhu comforted her, saying, “It’s okay…”

MO Cheng unleashed an electric shock on the wild boar. The mutated wild boar was hit by successive attacks and finally collapsed.

Ji Zan glanced at the bloodstains on Fu Shinan’s body, his expression grim. “Let’s go!”

However, at that moment, there was a rustling sound in the nearby foliage. When Ji Zan saw what was approaching, he immediately broke into a cold sweat.

It was a python!

Its body was as thick as his leg, and it had three heads!

One of them seemed impatient and as soon as it appeared, it swung its tail like lightning, coiling towards Nana, who was closest to it.

Nana’s cry of shock rang out from mid-air, illustrating the incredible speed of the python!

“Nana!” Fu Shinan shouted and quickly hurled the wooden stick in her hand towards the python.

There was a soft sound.

A hole appeared in the python’s neck, causing it to constrict even tighter due to the pain.

Nana couldn’t make a sound anymore, her face turning visibly red.

Sun Han immediately ignited a fire, further agitating the other two pythons, which attacked the group.

Ji Zan rushed toward Nana. If they waited any longer, the child would be crushed to death by the python.

Fu Shinan was also anxious. She quickly picked up a wooden stick from the ground and enhanced it. Although it wasn’t as powerful as the first reinforced stick, it was enough to inflict some damage on the python. However, this only caused the python to coil even tighter due to the increasing pain.

Seeing Nana’s body about to be crushed by the python, Fu Shinan suddenly remembered her psychic control ability. It’s funny how panic can make you forget. She quickly sat down on the ground and established a mental connection with the python coiling around Nana.

Ji Zan noticed that the python had slowly released its tail, realizing it was Fu Shinan’s doing. He rushed to pull Nana out of the python’s grip. However, just at that moment, another python emerged and charged at Fu Shinan, coiling around her body!

Watching her own body being coiled up, Fu Shinan was startled. She didn’t know what would happen to her if her physical body died while she was controlling another species. Even if she didn’t die, she had no desire to live as a giant snake!

To save her own body, Fu Shinan decided to take a risk. She opened her mouth wide and bit down on the python! Instantly, a foul and disgusting taste overwhelmed her senses, triggering a physiological response that almost made her vomit. Despite this, she held on, fearing that if she hesitated for even a moment, her body would be crushed by the python.

The python thrashed about, tightly coiling around Fu Shinan. It started climbing up a nearby tree while she was covered in blood. This situation was exactly like the one Ji Zan had predicted.

“Fu Shinan!” Ji Zan exclaimed and struck the python’s belly with his fist.

His punch was strong, but it only further agitated the giant snake, causing it to forcefully throw the python that was biting it away.

Fu Shinan’s controlled python was slammed into a tree, and the pain, combined with the putrid stench, made her lose her mental grip. However, as soon as she returned to her own body, the excruciating pain almost sent her soaring into the sky. It felt like her internal organs were on the verge of being crushed. She endured the pain, attempting to reconnect with the python coiling around her. But the system displayed a message: “Mental strength weakened, host temporarily unable to connect with any life forms!”

Fu Shinan was helpless. She could only watch Ji Zan relentlessly attack the python time and again, feeling desperate but unable to do anything. She couldn’t even produce a sound at this point!

No, she couldn’t die like this! With her system as an external tool, how could she die here? It would be too pathetic!

She needed to stay calm!

The python was incredibly strong, and breaking free from its grip using her physical strength was impossible. She had to rely on her mental power. With that in mind, she closed her eyes and kept trying to connect with her mental strength. Even though the system repeatedly displayed failure messages, she didn’t give up. She continued to mobilize her mental power and make connections. Just when she was about to give in, she suddenly heard a system alert: “Mental strength upgraded to Level 3.”

This revitalized Fu Shinan. It felt like a burst of energy surged through her. She immediately selected to connect with the python coiled around her and rapidly expanded her psychic presence, slowly releasing her physical body. She couldn’t afford to wait any longer: She was on the brink of being crushed

Ji Zan had been attacking the python nearby and noticed that the python coiling around Fu Shinan had blue pupils. It then turned towards the other pythons and attacked them..
