"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle…"
Beside Gu Sheng, tendrils of lotus vines squirmed slowly, their target unmistakably a dragon-boned golden snake.
The golden snake, wrapped in vines, visibly transformed into a skeleton at a frightening speed.
Gu Sheng's heart filled with dread, and he hastily activated the Vajra Demon Suppression Bell, but strangely, the bell remained unresponsive.
He tried to summon the Demon Suppression Golden Scroll, but his body was restrained by the vines, rendering him incapable of moving.
Just as despair was about to consume him, an unforeseen change occurred.
The vines dragging him forward suddenly prostrated themselves upon passing over a patch of lotus leaves, as though they had encountered their sovereign.
Immediately after, the Vajra Demon Suppression Bell emanated brilliant golden light, and one by one, runic swastikas began to circulate, radiating boundless vitality.
