The Shadowless Giant Sword roared.
From a planar view, the hilt was already out of sight.
With the soil turning over and rocks splattering out, the hole that was being drilled was becoming increasingly deep.
Under Xuan Hong’s control, the Shadowless Giant Sword precisely aid towards the Xuanming Ice Snake.
"Hmph, do you think hiding underground, you can escape from my Spiritual Sense?" Xuan Hong’s face revealed a murderous intent, the damage to his Spirit Vein had weakened Xuanyun Sect’s strength significantly, regardless of whether he could find a passageway to the Spirit World, the impact was profound.
At that mont.
The Xuanming Ice Snake shuddered all over.
It was still a young snake.
Facing a cultivator at the Core Formation Stage was already a struggle, let alone being locked on by the force of soone in the Nascent Soul Stage?
Even if the Ice Spirit Pearl was still in its mouth, there was no escape from death, not even a chance to struggle!
Knowing it was dood, its vertical pupils gradually dilated, and at last, it lowered its head, falling onto Chu Zhongtian, whom it had coiled around without knowing whether he was dead or alive.
The Xuanming Ice Snake wasn’t sure if Xuan Hong had co for it or for Chu Zhongtian.
But at least, if it could get Chu Zhongtian out of here, there was a slim chance he could survive.
Surely, the outco couldn’t be worse than it was now?
With that thought, the Xuanming Ice Snake raised its head in the confined space and then heavily smashed it down.
The Xuanming Ice Snake had already shed its ice scales, and there was no protection on its head; it ramd with its body alone.
It wasn’t trying to hide Chu Zhongtian.
Rather, it knew Lu Chen was below.
The intuition of a beast was much sharper than a human’s; it knew that only Lu Chen might be able to save Chu Zhongtian.
Once.
Twice.
Five tis.
Ten tis!
The Xuanming Ice Snake’s head was covered in scales flying off and streaked with blood.
But it was not in vain, in its desperation, its head smashed a deep hole downwards.
Until it sensed a void beneath, the Xuanming Ice Snake’s head was already a bloody ss.
"Chu Zhongtian, the rest is up to you...," it could only mutter to itself in its heart as it was incapable of speech.
It slowly uncoiled its body, sending Chu Zhongtian down through the void.
At that mont, the rumbling above was closing in.
The Shadowless Giant Sword was almost upon them.
Ignoring the roaring above its head, it kept listening for the echoes of the ice sculptures hitting the ground below until it finally cracked a grin of grimace.
Its crimson tongue, paired with its bloodied head, took on a chilling aspect.
"A giant sword, huh? Although I can’t swallow you whole, at least, I can destroy your connection to the Spiritual Power and the master’s mind above!" The eyes of the Xuanming Ice Snake sparked with determination, mirroring the resolute gaze of its mother, who had self-destructed her demon pill to save Lu Chen.
Crack—
Above, there finally ca the sound of falling debris, barely noticeable amidst the ongoing rumble.
But the Xuanming Ice Snake opened its mouth wide at that mont, as if waiting for prey to fall into its jaws willingly!
"Hiss—"
As a sharp, spinning sword tip appeared, the Xuanming Ice Snake inhaled sharply.
The remnants of its Ice Demon Power surged out, inflating its body visibly until, as a few more feet of the sword tip erged, the Xuanming Ice Snake had completely filled the void!
Crack!
Another sound of shattering rocks ca, and at that mont, the Xuanming Ice Snake, curled up, suddenly sprang open, opened its large mouth, and faced the oncoming Shadowless Giant Sword!
"Squeal—"
A piercing, distressing sound arose as the Shadowless Giant Sword penetrated the mouth of the Xuanming Ice Snake, grinding away its fangs, and then the sword tip aid for its lower abdon!
Intense pain spread throughout the Xuanming Ice Snake.
But it had no retreat.
Or rather, even if it retreated, it couldn’t escape this fate, so it might as well attack, using its body to sever the connection between the Shadowless Giant Sword and Xuan Hong!
Rather than saying the Shadowless Giant Sword was descending from above, it was more accurate to say the Xuanming Ice Snake was rising to et the sword.
"Is this... the beast seeking its own death?" Xuan Hong furrowed his brows on the Spirit Vein. Through his Spiritual Sense, he could see the Xuanming Ice Snake making a move that seed absurd.
Yet, he could also feel that the connection with the Shadowless Giant Sword was weakening.
It was during this mont of distraction, in the ground behind him, a much larger Xuanming Ice Snake also surged up, opening its mouth wide and swallowing toward Xuan Hong in one bite!
