Mere Gravel

His entire body surged with power, and with such immense force, he moved the giant snake and then threw it away.

"Boom!"

The enormous snake's body kept smashing through the rocks, leaving the entire Yamanaka world in ruins. If this continued, the whole mountain would collapse.

"Run!"

Mira had already entered Satan Soul Form, and she knew that this level of combat was beyond her current capabilities. Therefore, she did her best to ensure the safety of her side and prevent Chiba from being distracted in the battle.

She led the way, Lixi took Seele from Feiyin's hands, and even the Red Eye Koi chose to retreat.

"You wretched ants!"

The giant serpent roared, sweeping away the rocks, and then swung its One-Tail at Chiba.

"Rasengan!"

Just as the giant serpent's tail was about to sweep across, Chiba slammed a Rasengan into its body. Instantly, serpent scales flew everywhere.

The giant snake let out a painful howl, opened its blood-red maw, and sprayed a mouthful of venom towards Chiba.

"Hiss~"

The venom landed on the lava covering Chiba's body and evaporated instantly. Chiba glanced at the giant snake indifferently, a mocking smile playing on his lips.

The giant serpent's enormous vertical pupils suddenly contracted, and a sense of foreboding welled up in its heart.

"Lava Release..."

"Lava Behemoth!"

Chiba's hands moved swiftly, forming several hand seals before he slammed one hand into the ground. All of his Chakra flowed into the earth.

"Rumble..."

The earth began to tremble, and the collapse of the mountain intensified. The ground shook violently.

Both the giant serpent and Labi sensed it; an extremely intense aura emanated from below.

"This direction... is underground! He's going to use the underground magma!" the giant python roared in disbelief.

Rabbi's face Labi ashen. "Didn't you say that at such a distance, even if we could utilize underground magma, there wouldn't be much of it?"

The giant serpent twisted its body and growled, "We miscalculated! This kid's control over lava is surprisingly strong. We thought the two of us could take him down, but we didn't expect him to have such a hidden trick up his sleeve!"

"What should we do?" Now that things had come to this, the Labi was thinking about how to resolve the situation.

"Get out, go outside the mountain. This battlefield isn't suitable for me!" The giant python twisted its body, ready to leave.

Chiba watched them leave coldly, without making a sound.

If there were people below, they could clearly see the underground magma converging and merging, along with broken rocks, constantly rising outwards.

The entire mountain was shaking, as if a volcano was about to erupt.

"President, that direction, that's where the core is!" On a mountaintop, a young man in black robes looked towards the direction of the collapsed mountain and couldn't help but ask.

All eyes turned to that spot, and one of the young men frowned and asked, "What happened there? Why did the mountain collapse? What are Yaro and Hualun up to?"

"Lord Makarov, I need to go to my base to check on the situation." The middle-aged man in black robes looked at the little old man sitting on the rock and said in a deep voice.

If something goes wrong at the core, there's no reason for him to remain calm.

At this point, even if Makarov insisted on keeping him there, he had to rush over immediately.

The old man stood up and simply said, "Go."

Surprised that Makarov was letting them pass now, the Shadow Skull Guild Master gave him a deep look, then whispered, "Go back!"

The seven people flew swiftly towards Shanwu Town.

Makarov followed as well.

"Has everyone arrived?" Mira asked loudly from a street far away at the foot of the mountain.

"They're all here!"

Behind her, Lishiko Yifei followed closely.

Lixi placed Seele on the ground, Feiyin quickly placed her hands on Seele's wounds to heal her.

She took away a portion of the sealed power and used Yang Release to heal her.

Lixi couldn't help but look behind her at the mountain where her beloved had died.

But when she turned around completely, she was stunned by what she saw.

The original Wu Mountain is now in ruins. The summit has completely collapsed, leaving it almost entirely in ruins. No one could imagine that such a large mountain could have become like this.

On the mountaintop, one could vaguely see an enormous, crimson beast standing atop it. The beast was covered in lava, like a demon crawling out of hell, exuding a fierce and scorching aura.

If anyone were standing at the foot of the Lava Behemoth, looking up, they would see a black-haired boy with his arms crossed, coldly looking down at the tiny snake below, which to the Lava Behemoth was nothing more than an earthworm.

"Go on, show me your true abilities..."

The boy looked down at the Water King and Labi, and said calmly.

"You wretched brat!"

The Water King roared, and its entire body rapidly expanded, growing continuously. In no time, it had grown to the same size as the Lava Behemoth.

Don't underestimate me!

The Water King roared and opened its blood-red maw to attack the Lava Behemoth.

"A mere grain of sand is not even half as good as me."

Chiba snorted coldly, and the Lava Behemoth beneath him swung its lava arm, directly grabbing the giant python.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

With his hands forming a hand seal, a huge, blazing fireball was unleashed, attacking directly at the giant python's head.

A magic circle formed in front of the giant python's mouth, and then a water ball of the same size shot out from its mouth.

"Bang!"

The fireball and the water ball collided, first unleashing a powerful burst of energy. Then they merged and evaporated into a large amount of water vapor.

"Lava Release, Blazing Fire Flowing Rock!"

He formed hand seals again, then extended one hand, and a stream of magma, about the thickness of a giant python, shot towards the python.

"Laugh--"

The lava crashed against the snake, melting its scales and then its flesh. The python howled in pain, its body contorted into a writhing mess.

Damn it!

Labi off the lava that threatened to fall on him. Then, he placed one hand over the snake and roared.

"Dispel!"

In an instant, all the lava impacting the snake was Dispel and slid down the mountainside.

"A futile effort..."

Chiba sneered, and then the Lava Behemoth beneath his feet opened its mouth full of magma, unleashing Blazing Fire Flowing Rock Chiba had used, which shot towards the giant python's body.

Labi's face turned pale, because even with his magic power, which was comparable to that of the Throne, it would take a lot of magic power to Dispel such a large amount of lava.

"I can't hold on any longer..." Labi growled through gritted teeth.

At that moment, a magical pressure even stronger than that of Labi suddenly descended.

"Who are you? And why do you dare to attack my Shadow Skull?"

A loud voice echoed across the mountaintop, and then a tiny figure floated in mid-air, standing in front of Chiba.

The boy's expression didn't change at all because of his appearance; instead, he said calmly.

"Mind your own business, or I won't hesitate to kill you."
