War God Long Ao

After thrashing about for a full hour, the Ice and Fire Double-headed Python seemed to be getting tired.

Divine Dragon Arm.

Seeing that the giant python was tiring, Long Ao made his move.

He channeled all the power in his body into his fists, enhanced by the Divine Dragon Arm, and smashed down on the giant python without hesitation. The punch sank deep into the python's body, and snake blood gushed from the wound around his fist like a fountain.

Staring at the fountain-like pillar of blood, Long Ao was completely dumbfounded.

He stared blankly at his own right arm. Long Ao couldn't figure it out. 'When did my Divine Dragon Arm get this strong?'

Struck so viciously, the Ice and Fire Double-headed Python began to thrash its enormous body in agony. For Long Ao, who was standing on its back, it was like being on a ship tossed by a storm; one misstep and he'd be thrown off, like falling into the sea to drown.

However, Long Ao knew exactly what was happening. 'I've wounded the Ice and Fire Double-headed Python. The more it struggles, the faster it will bleed out. Once it's lost all its blood, it will die.'

Driven mad by the pain, the python's thrashing grew ever more violent. Standing on its back, Long Ao was in constant danger of being thrown off.

The wound was deep, and snake blood continued to gush out. At this rate, no matter how much blood the Ice and Fire Double-headed Python had, it wouldn't be enough. Sooner or later, it would bleed to death.

Unable to shake off the human, the giant python was driven to the height of fury.

It let out a furious roar to the heavens. Just then, the giant python's body suddenly flipped, turning its back to the ground and slamming down with all its weight.

The python's intention was simple: to crush Long Ao to death.

But would Long Ao just wait to be crushed?

In the nick of time, Long Ao moved. He followed the python's roll, landing on its underbelly.

'Kick 'em while they're down.'

Without a moment's hesitation, Long Ao struck again with his Divine Dragon Arm, smashing his fist deep into the python's underbelly.

A snake has two fatal weaknesses: its head and its belly. But Long Ao was unlucky; he hadn't struck a vital point. Otherwise, that single blow would have been enough to kill it.

But Long Ao had no intention of stopping. Focusing all his strength into his right arm, he took a deep breath. Then, with a sudden, sharp tug, he ripped his fist out. Blood surged from the wound.

"Die!"

Long Ao refused to let this golden opportunity slip by. He viciously struck again with his Divine Dragon Arm.

SQUELCH! His right fist plunged into the python's belly. Long Ao ripped it out and smashed it back in again, repeating the motion dozens of times in just three seconds.

At this point, the python's underbelly was riddled with bloody wounds, like dozens of fountains all spewing blood at once. The sight was horrifyingly spectacular.

The giant python never imagined that its plan to crush its foe would backfire so spectacularly, costing it dearly.

Roaring in fury, the python flipped back over. But Long Ao held on, riding the motion to land on its back once more. He quickly scrambled toward the cyan-colored head.

He unleashed the Divine Dragon Arm again, his right fist hurtling toward the python's head.

This time, Long Ao was aiming for a finishing blow. But the python's head dodged at the last second. SQUELCH! Long Ao's indestructible fist plunged right into the beast's massive left eye.

The excruciating pain from its left eye nearly made the giant python faint.

But Long Ao didn't stop there. Giving the Ice and Fire Double-headed Python no chance to react, his hardened fist struck again, this time aiming for its right eye.

The Divine Dragon Arm slammed viciously into the python's right eye. With attacks on both sides, the python's eyes were completely destroyed—its very eyeballs were smashed out. The scene was horrifically gory.

Perhaps from the overwhelming pain, the Ice and Fire Double-headed Python's body began to tremble, its movements growing sluggish.

Overjoyed, Long Ao was not about to let this chance slip. He leaped onto the python's other head, preparing to smash its eyes as well. But just as he was about to strike, the trembling python suddenly turned both heads and began spraying ice and Flame all over its own body.

Having had one set of its eyes destroyed, the Ice and Fire Double-headed Python was utterly enraged. It no longer cared about anything, not even attacking its own body.

'Trying to take me down with you? You'll have to ask for my permission first.'

Its eyes, back, and belly were a mangled mess. The Ice and Fire Double-headed Python was in so much pain it wished for death, and its hatred for Long Ao had reached its peak. It wanted nothing more than to swallow him whole.

In its fury, the Ice and Fire Double-headed Python threw caution to the wind, spraying ice and Flame indiscriminately all over itself.

The Ice and Fire Double-headed Python was a tragic sight. Its eyes were blinded and bleeding, while its back, belly, and entire body were riddled with gaping wounds that gushed blood.

Ignoring the python's rage, Long Ao gave it no chance to recover. He took out the God-Locking Pearl. Streams of energy shot out, enveloping the giant python and locking it in place.

Under normal circumstances, even if Long Ao managed to lock down the Ice and Fire Double-headed Python, it likely wouldn't have lasted more than a second. But things were different now.

The Ice and Fire Double-headed Python was severely wounded by Long Ao and had lost its eyes. Under the combined assault of pain and rage, the God-Locking Pearl successfully trapped the giant python. The lock's Time would hold for about five seconds.

For Long Ao, that was more than enough.

After trapping the python, Long Ao didn't draw his Blood-Drinking Mad Saber. Instead, he prepared to continue his assault with the Divine Dragon Arm. 'With my speed and the power of the Divine Dragon Arm, there's no way I can't beat this Ice and Fire Double-headed Python to death!'

He strode over to the python's side and looked down coldly at the tragic beast. "You brought this on yourself," Long Ao said icily. "Blame no one else. Now, die."

Long Ao was not one to be indecisive. He was still deep within Corpse Bone Mountain, and if this fight dragged on any longer, he would never make it to the Kyushu Tournament in time.

He had to end this, and fast.

He channeled all his strength into his right fist again. The Divine Dragon Arm initiated Fusion with Long Qiang's power. Then, Long Ao threw a vicious punch that buried itself in the python's body.

A jolt of agonizing pain allowed the Ice and Fire Double-headed Python to break free from its restraints. Ignoring its own grievous wounds, the python's massive body coiled with incredible speed. It happened so fast that Long Ao had no time to dodge before he was caught in its deathly grip.

A python's constricting force is terrifying, and this was an Ice and Fire Double-headed Python. The more enraged it became, the more terrifying its power grew. Within seconds, the pressure was so immense that Long Ao's face turned purple, veins bulging on his skin. If this kept up, he would be crushed to death.

"You forced my hand," he said coldly. Then, Long Ao opened his mouth and bit down hard on the python's flesh.
