War God Long Ao

Dozens of Ice and Fire Double-headed Pythons relentlessly besieged Long Ao, giving him no chance to catch his breath.

Admittedly, after fusing the powers of Long Qiang and Long Ming to form the Divine Dragon Arm and the Nether Tiger Arm, Long Ao's strength had reached a whole new level.

His fists lashed out left and right. Whenever he found an opening, he would smash down with all his might.

At first, the dozens of Ice and Fire Double-headed Pythons didn't take Long Ao seriously at all. But as the battle escalated, they began to coordinate their attacks.

As he relentlessly struck out with both arms, Long Ao found his stamina gradually giving out. 'If this keeps up,' he thought, 'even if the Ice and Fire Double-headed Pythons don't kill me, I'll probably die from sheer exhaustion.'

Because of this, Long Ao knew with certainty, 'I absolutely can't go on like this. Otherwise, death is inevitable.'

With no other choice, Long Ao could only resort to using the Dragon Seal.

According to Long Fu, the Dragon Seal was severely damaged and needed time to recover. It was not to be used unless absolutely necessary. Otherwise, the damage to the Dragon Seal would worsen, making it incredibly difficult to repair in the future.

But the current situation was dire. The slightest misstep would lead to his doom.

The power of the Dragon Seal was far greater than that of the Divine Dragon Arm and the Nether Tiger Arm.

Even so, Long Ao didn't rely on the Dragon Seal's power alone. Instead, he came up with an excellent idea: he would channel all the power from both his arms into the Dragon Seal.

"Die."

WHAM! As the Dragon Seal smashed forward, Long Ao didn't remain idle. He punched and kicked wildly, since dozens of Ice and Fire Double-headed Pythons were attacking him simultaneously. If he was even a fraction of a second too slow, he would be struck.

The Ice and Fire Double-headed Python struck by the Dragon Seal had a bloody gash torn open on its head. Though it was painful, the blow wasn't enough to be fatal.

'Do I really have to use the Nine Needle God-Sealing?'

'The Divine Dragon Arm and Nether Tiger Arm are ineffective, and even the Dragon Seal can't kill these giant pythons quickly.' Long Ao knew very well that the longer this dragged on, the more disadvantageous his situation would become.

Long Ao was confident that if he used the Nine Needle God-Sealing, his strength would instantly break through to the level of a Peak Earth Emperor. Then, killing these giant pythons would be no problem at all.

The problem, however, was that he had already used the Nine Needle God-Sealing three times. If his luck ran out and he suffered a backlash from it, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Smashing his arms out viciously, Long Ao knew that before he made his final decision, he had to continue this life-or-death battle against the dozens of giant pythons.

He slammed a fist hard into one giant python's jaw, then followed with an explosive kick that struck another's body. He fought with fists and feet, supplementing his attacks with the Dragon Seal.

But just then, Long Ao felt an irresistible power suddenly emerge within him, instantly flooding his entire body.

'What in the world is happening?'

Long Ao discovered the Dragon Seal had vanished from his hand. At that moment, Long Fu's voice echoed in his mind.

"Master, I'm using the power of the Dragon Seal Space to help you this one time. You must act fast. It will last one minute at most."

Just as he'd thought.

'The Dragon Seal Space is so powerful!' At this moment, Long Ao felt as if he possessed an endless well of power, begging to be unleashed. One minute would be more than enough.

This time, Long Ao did not retreat. Instead, he chose to meet them head-on. With the Nether Tiger Arm on his left and the Divine Dragon Arm on his right, Long Ao struck with both fists, raining punch after punch down on the giant pythons.

The explosive increase in his strength caused the power of his arms to skyrocket. Now, each punch didn't just tear open a bloody hole; it also sent a potent force invading the giant python's body to corrode its very soul.

Fury. Resentment.

In just a few short seconds, six of the giant pythons had been beaten to death. Seeing the tide turn, the remaining six immediately scattered and tried to flee.

Would the current Long Ao possibly let the remaining giant pythons escape?

Long Ao's figure moved as fast as the wind. Wherever he went, a storm of fists descended, each punch containing the force of hundreds, beating the Ice and Fire Double-headed Pythons to death one by one.

After one minute, the power receded completely. All twelve Ice and Fire Double-headed Pythons had been eliminated. Looking at the twelve corpses on the ground, Long Ao suddenly smiled.

As he was landing the killing blows, Long Ao had intentionally held back, careful not to completely destroy the pythons' bodies. Otherwise, how could he possibly refine them into Giant Python Corpse Slaves? It was a close call; at first, he had used too much force, punching bloody holes all over the pythons and rendering them useless for Refinement.

Although Corpse Slaves were merely tools for slaughter, appearances still mattered.

Without a moment's hesitation, Long Ao sent the bodies and souls of all twelve Ice and Fire Double-headed Pythons into the Dragon Seal Space.

According to Long Fu, the Blood Pool within the Dragon Seal Space could be used to refine two types of tools for slaughter: Corpse Slaves and Soul Slaves. These two were fundamentally different.

Soul Slaves were relatively more powerful, but they could only exist within the Dragon Seal Space. In other words, if a Soul Slave were to leave the Dragon Seal Space, it would be dissolved by the laws of Heaven and Earth, returning to nature.

Corpse Slaves, however, were completely different. Although slightly weaker, they could exist independently outside the Dragon Seal Space. Therefore, after weighing his options, Long Ao decided to refine twelve Giant Python Corpse Slaves.

'The mere thought of it is exciting!' After all, all twelve Ice and Fire Double-headed Pythons were at the Earth Emperor Realm. Once successfully refined, they would all be at his command. In other words, as soon as the Refinement was complete, he would have twelve bodyguards at the Earth Emperor Realm.

With twelve Earth Emperor Martial Artists by his side for the upcoming Kyushu competition, his chances of survival would be significantly higher.

「Inside the Dragon Seal Space.」

"Master, I had to force myself to help you. Thankfully, we had those Spirit Stones. Otherwise, I would have already fallen into a deep slumber."

'Fallen into a deep slumber?'

Long Ao was stunned to hear Long Fu's words. He had never imagined that using the power of the Dragon Seal Space would cause such a major problem. Just as Long Fu said, it was all thanks to the Spirit Stones this time. Otherwise, the consequences would have been truly unimaginable.

"From now on, don't use the power of the Dragon Seal Space again. I'll handle things myself. By the way, Long Fu, how long will it take you to refine these twelve Ice and Fire Double-headed Pythons into Corpse Slaves?"

To create a Corpse Slave, one had to first refine the original soul and then implant it into the corpse. Only then could Long Ao control it. For this reason, refining Corpse Slaves was far more troublesome than refining Soul Slaves.

Long Fu did a quick calculation and said, "Master, since all twelve Ice and Fire Double-headed Pythons are at the Earth Emperor Realm, it will take at least ten days to refine them all into Corpse Slaves."

Ten days wasn't too long. Long Ao had already done the math. At that rate, Long Fu would be able to successfully create the Giant Python Corpse Slaves before the Kyushu competition officially began.

"Master, neither the Nether Tiger Arm you recently achieved Fusion with nor the Divine Dragon Arm have unleashed their greatest power yet."
