Scales shattered on the blood-red giant snake inside the cyan-blue giant wolf's jaws as long, yellow canine teeth pierced its flesh.
This threatened the life of Li Jing, the Military God trapped within the blood-red snake.
Pale already from excessive blood loss, Li Jing grew even weaker.
At the same time, an untold number of the soldiers forming the Serpentine Formation vomited blood and turned pale.
After all,
this was mortal strength opposing immortals and gods.
Furthermore, these were no ordinary immortals and gods, but a terrifying entity with the combat prowess of a Taiyi Golden Immortal.
The cyan-blue giant wolf fared no better; bound by the bloody snake, the bones all over its body cracked and groaned under the crushing pressure.
For the moment, the two sides found it difficult to determine a victor.
Yet Li Jing clearly grew anxious, for he could not afford to drag this out, nor did he wish to see the emperor in the distance assassinated.
Right at that moment,
twenty-seven figures suddenly descended from the clouds in the sky.
"Kui Mulang, His Majesty summons you back to heaven. Do not linger in the mortal realm any longer."
Jiaomujiao, one of the Twenty-Eight Constellations, spoke up.
"Brothers, wait... wait a moment. Once my wife avenges herself, I shall immediately return with you to heaven to accept punishment," Kui Mulang replied via divine sense.
"Kui Mulang, do not be so ungrateful! Return to heaven with us right now, and we can still intercede on your behalf. With such an unrepentant attitude, none of us will have the chance to plead for you," said Kangjinlong.
"Brothers..." Kui Mulang immediately began to plead with his brothers.
Li Jing, caught inside the wolf's jaws, finally caught a brief respite, yet his heart grew increasingly icy.
