Chapter 317: The Smile Will Never Disappear
The Golden Forest, Homunculus, had fallen from the fight.
The One-Fanged Snake was about to pounce like a snake scavenging for prey.
Its eyes were fixed on the food, ready to go and eat. However, a figure approached the One-Fanged Snake at an extremely high speed.
It held something like a pitch-black crystal in its mouth, a beautiful shape.
Fiona approached the One-Fanged Snake, a smile curling at her lips.
"Isn't there an advantage to not having spiritual power?" Fiona leaped closer to the One-Fanged Snake's face.
The silence from the soundproofing left a gap in the One-Fanged Snake's face.
Fiona had flown halfway when the One-Fanged Snake's tail swung out and slammed into Fiona's stomach. It was so fast, Fiona couldn't even react. Boom!
Ugh!? Fiona was extremely shocked. She thought she'd gotten close.
A single fang of the snake's tail struck Fiona's abdomen.
Underneath Fiona's clothes, a thin, magical armor was placed.
The single fang struck the exact spot, and Fiona's bones were shattered. The sound of the bones breaking was a loud, cracking sound.
A surge of pain shot through her body, like a punch she had never received before.
Fiona coughed up blood from the single fang's attack, which was extremely powerful.
If Fiona hadn't prepared a thin sheet under her abdomen,
her chances of dying by being split in half would have been high. She would have died from this attack.
Fiona's eyes were completely white. She fainted. Veins bulged out of her eyes, and blood was flowing from the corners of her eyes, as if her stomach was being squeezed.
Intestines were pouring out of her mouth, eyes, and nose.
The single fang of the snake's tail swung. Boom! Fiona flew into mid-air. Crashing into the golden tree, boom!
Fiona's head slammed into the golden tree. Boom!
The blood on the back of her head continued to flow, leaving a large wound.
Fiona lay under the golden tree, her eyes wide open, and blood was streaming down her right arm, as if she had lost consciousness.
Her left arm was lying there like a bonus, unmoving. Her face, half burned, was bleeding even more from the compression of her stomach.
Fiona stretched out her burned legs and leaned against the golden tree.
The one-fanged snake stared at something in front of her.
It was a crystal that had ricocheted from Fiona's mouth.
There was blood still clinging to the crystal. It was Fiona's blood.
Before she fainted, Fiona bit the crystal slightly, causing it to heal.
The crystal glowed a slight white light, and it began to spread rapidly. A black crystal floated in front of the one-fanged snake. And it slowly slid down.
The black crystal covered Fiona's face, her eyes white, revealing Fiona's mouth. It stopped moving.
And as the crystal began to drift down, the One-Fanged Snake gradually saw Fiona's unconscious eyes.
And the crystal slid down, as if time did not want to move.
The crystal slowly slid down, covering Fiona's mouth.
The One-Fanged Snake saw the merging of Fiona's white face.
And the crystal's slight shattering marks seemed to indicate the unconscious girl was smiling at herself.
The crystal came down to cover Fiona's mouth.
The crystal's cracks were like the marks of a smile mocking the One-Fanged Snake.
And evidence that Fiona was still able to smile even after she was unconscious.
The black crystal developed further cracks and exploded in front of the One-Fanged Snake. Boom! The explosion was over five hundred centimeters long. The bomb burned the face of the one-fanged snake. Boom!
The attack approached the one-fanged snake and it exploded violently.
The flames burned the one-fanged snake's face.
But its entire body was extremely durable, so nothing could burn it.
The dust and smoke exploding in front of it couldn't harm the one-fanged snake.
The one-fanged snake looked at the unconscious girl leaning against a tree.
The one-fanged snake opened its mouth, revealing a small number of fangs, arranged in rows like fish teeth.
The sharpness was so great that a single bite could kill a person.
The light inside its mouth was like the sun growing. Inside the demon's mouth, a red beam of light burned the snake's mouth.
Heat waves began to emerge from its mouth little by little. Deep red fireballs filled the one-fanged snake's mouth.
When this attack was launched, the unconscious Fiona would disappear from this world.
The Homunculus behind the one-fanged snake lay unconscious with severe wounds, unable to move.
The one-fanged snake spit fireballs forward. Boom! Pew!
A large fireball flew towards Fiona. Pew! Heat waves gradually approached Fiona.
Fiona was unconscious and unable to move or fight back.
A large fireball, half the size of a tree, flew forward, melting the gold along the way. Pew!
Before the explosion hit Fiona,
Orange lightning formed, covering Fiona's body. Orange lightning covered the girl's body. Boom!
A voice spoke, seemingly amused, and she held something in her arms.
"Interesting, little girl, because you didn't choose to flee and decided to stay instead.
It would be a shame to die here. The Great Emperor will help you just this once."
The fireball exploded with a boom!
And Fiona survived because someone was willing to help her.
At a certain location, where Fiona had been sent away from the group earlier,
Gravin stood there with a group of one-fanged snakes.
The offspring of a fourth-level snake demon. Its mother abandoned her own offspring so Gravin could take care of it.
Gravin looked around. The one-fanged snakes were all around him, the size of dogs.
These demons weren't very large.
The one-fanged snake behind Gravin lunged at him from behind. Whoosh!
Gravin dodged to his right. Whoosh!
The one-fanged snake to Gravin's right lunged at him, using one fang. Thrusting in a straight direction. Fuuuuu.
Gravin dodged the one-fanged snake a and swung his sword to strike the one-fanged snake a's head. Fuuuuu.
The blade flew towards the one-fanged snake a's neck.
The one-fanged snake c, which had been running behind the one-fanged snake a, charged towards Gravin's sword. Fuuuuu. Boom!
Gravin's sword was diverted, preventing the one-fanged snake a's strike.
The one-fanged snake b approaching was about to thrust into Gravin's stomach. Fuuu.
Gravin looked at the one-fanged snake b and swung his fist, energizing the fireball to strike. Fuuuuu. Boom!
The fireball collided with the fang of the demon snake b. Boom!
Another female snake rushed towards Gravin. Fuuuuuuuuu. The three charged simultaneously.
Gravin turned his sword towards the three demon snakes.
Spiritual power was activated, and the heat burned the blades.
Gravin was heating up. A red beam of light shot out in a straight line, burning the three approaching snakes. Pew! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The red beam split the three demonic snakes in half, revealing their blood and bodies separating from each other. Boom!
The beam of light shot out in a wide circle, slashing in a circle to incinerate the approaching snakes. Pew! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The demonic snakes surrounding Gravin were burned, their bodies charred, and their skin was marked with black marks along the dividing lines. Boom!
More than ten one-fanged snakes had died.
Red blood stained the golden ground from the red beam's slashes.
A one-fanged snake, far away from Gravin, saw the corpses of the dead snakes.
A red line of flames was drawn. Many more one-fanged snakes remained.
Gravin stood in the center of the fire, forming a circle around them.
He smiled faintly. "I guess we'll have some roasted snake meat for dinner." Gravin pointed his sword at the large number of single-fanged snakes gathered together.
The remaining single-fanged snakes began to rush towards Gravin, and a battle ensued.
A level three cultivator clashed with a group of level one demonic snakes.
