Ling Han and Liu Yu Tong had already started taking pills like mad.
The pills Ling Han had been taking helped him replenish his Origin Power while the ones Liu Yu Tong had been taking were meant to speed up the recovery of wounds. A head-on clash with this kind of demonic beast was practically seeking death, and she had already sustained considerable internal injuries within a few short minutes of battle.
Thankfully, the pills Ling Han concocted were of excellent quality and allowed her to maintain her battle prowess at her best condition. Furthermore, because of Lone Wolf’s Blood, her battle prowess was still on a soaring rise.
…Ling Han had taught it to her some time ago.
With the increasing battle prowess she possessed further enhanced by the circulation of the Lone Wolf’s Blood, Liu Yu Tong could just about handle a head-on clash with the Red Scaled Dragon Snake.
If the Red Scaled Dragon Snake had not been poisoned, then the losers of this battle would definitely be Ling Han and Liu Yu Tong. But things were different now. They only needed to hold on for twenty minutes.
As the battle persisted, the Red Scaled Dragon Snake became more and more frantic. The conflict between the Yin and the Yang in its body was becoming even more intense, and there were already many places on its body that had exploded. Green-colored blood splattered everywhere. It had a corrosive nature–falling on the rocks littered around, the blood actually melted the rocks at an extremely quick pace.
There was also poisonous gas floating around in the air that could easily poison and kill a martial artist in the ninth layer of Element Gathering Tier!
If it did not possess such awe-inspiring abilities, how could it be labeled the ruler of Element Gathering Tier?
Rulers were, of course, invincible!
Unfortunately, it had encountered Ling Han.
Ling Han and Liu Yu Tong had already taken antidotes, and the powerful poison only caused them to feel slightly dizzy, not having too much effect on their battle prowess.
“Si si!” The Red Scaled Dragon Snake could feel death approaching and began to attempt to flee recklessly. In its eyes, it only needed to solve the problem within its body, and then dealing with these two insignificant human beings would be a cinch.
Liu Yu Tong was enraged too. She brandished her long sword like she was holding a rainbow in her hand, as if she was a battle goddess displaying her heroic beauty.
The great serpent did its utmost to flee, while Ling Han and Liu Yu Tong did their utmost to stop it from fleeing. If they missed this chance, the Red Scaled Dragon Snake would definitely not be fooled next time and they’d have to wait until Liu Yu Tong broke through to Gushing Spring Tier before coming again.
A large river appeared some distance ahead.
The Red Scaled Dragon Snake seemed to understand that the river’s water would cure its poison and instantly became energetic, increasing the speed of its escape. Even if it suffered attacks from Liu Yu Tong, it did not attempt to counterattack even once. It seemed to have made its decision to do its utmost to slip into the river.
A flash of absolute determination crossed Liu Yu Tong’s eyes as she raised her sword high up and lightly shouted, “One sword of Heaven’s Martial Arts determines the Universe!”
“Xiu,” she waved her sword, and it was almost as if wielder and sword were as one, slashing towards the neck of the Red Scaled Dragon Snake.
Ling Han’s expression changed and he shouted loudly, “Don’t be reckless!”
This slash was much too powerful and the Red Scaled Dragon Snake dared not receive it head on. Otherwise, it was highly likely that the great serpent would be killed by this one slash. It gave a loud hiss, and the serpent’s body quickly coiled in place, concealing its head within its coiled body to protect it.
“Pu!”
The long sword lowered quickly in a slash, and a flash of Sword Qi was revealed, which actually chopped the body of the Red Scaled Dragon Snake in two; green blood instantly gushed out like a spring.
The great serpent twisted all over the ground in agony. Close to one third of its body near to its tail had actually been chopped off by this sword slash of Liu Yu Tong!
“Pa,” Liu Yu Tong’s delicate figure wavered, and she fell down towards the ground.
Ling Han quickly leaped up to catch the icy beauty before she hit the ground. He frowned and said, “Are you crazy? You actually forcibly squeezed your Origin Nucleus to increase your own battle prowess! If it exploded, you’d lose your life!”
Meanwhile, the man the great serpent had bitten in half was only left with two legs that walked a few steps in different directions before they fell down with a “pa”.
“Pa,” the Red Scaled Dragon Snake once again lay down on the ground, and this time, it was finally dead.
