A fierce circle of flames suddenly spread out, trapping everyone inside. The power unleashed by the fists left a blood pit about half a meter deep on the giant serpent's lower jaw. Inside the pit, the firelight was dazzling, swiftly burning and melting the serpent's internal muscle tissue. The serpent's fangs then bit down into the tall, thin man's back, piercing through his chest. A spurt of blood gushed from the man's mouth, more vivid than the fire.
He moved his lips but couldn't make a sound for a long time, that rigid posture frozen in the moment.
Crack!
In agony, the giant serpent bit down again, shattering and breaking all the bones in the man's waist. In the firelight, the man's final scream resounded through Jade Emperor Peak...
The delicate-featured man let out a heart-wrenching scream, boiling tears instantly flooding his face. He could never have imagined that at the brink of victory, something so heartbreaking would happen!
