Ten-Headed Ferocity, Rakshasa Shadow

The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's hiss was like the wailing of countless wronged souls, carrying tangible sound waves and a Mental Shock as it slammed viciously into the Domain of Judgment Ling Feng had spread open!

Bzzz—!

The golden-black domain barrier shuddered violently, letting out a piercing wail as spiderweb-like cracks instantly spread across its surface! The sacred radiance within the domain was suppressed into dimness by the violent baleful aura. Lines of destruction writhed madly, yet they could not fully neutralize the terrifying impact!

Ling Feng suffered a heavy blow, grunting as blood spilled from the corner of his mouth once more. The domain was an extension of his mind and Soul Power, and its severe damage directly rebounded onto him! Behind him, Hu Liena's face had turned paper-white. Although Ling Feng had blocked most of the impact, the remaining sound waves still churned her blood and qi. Fine streaks of blood seeped from her ears and nose, while the glow of her Demon Fox Spirit flickered unstably.

"S-So strong!" Hu Liena's voice trembled uncontrollably. The pressure brought by this ten-headed fiendish beast far surpassed every enemy she had faced before!

"Steady your mind!" Ling Feng shouted in a low voice, forcibly suppressing the churning blood and qi within him. His Soul Power circulated frantically, and the nearly shattered Domain of Judgment erupted with one final burst of brilliant radiance, forcefully stabilizing itself and protecting them both within. He knew the domain absolutely could not break. Otherwise, in this space saturated with slaughter and resentment, his and Hu Liena's minds would be corroded in an instant!

Hiss-roar—!

The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent had clearly been enraged by Ling Feng's stubborn resistance! Its ten savage snake heads suddenly lashed out!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Four snake heads attacked first! One spewed a scorching, viscous Dark Gold torrent of fire like a waterfall of magma! One spewed out a vast cloud of sickly green acid mist, and even space itself gave off sizzling sounds of corrosion wherever it passed! One exhaled an eerie blue icy breath, instantly freezing a large portion of the blood pool into strange blue-black ice crystals! The last spewed dense black smoke clouds carrying intense mental corrosion and a weakening curse!

Four utterly different yet equally deadly attacks became four Destruction Torrents that engulfed the area where Ling Feng and Hu Liena stood from different directions in an instant! Their range was so vast that they nearly covered the entire platform, leaving no room to evade!

"Shrink the domain! Full defense!" Ling Feng roared. The Domain of Judgment instantly contracted until it covered only a three-meter radius around them, its light condensed into something almost solid! At the same time, he held the Spear of Judgment horizontally in his right hand, while Dark Gold light surged in his left palm as the embryonic God Devouring Spider Spear gathered power, ready to strike!

Hu Liena also cried out, her fourth soul ring blazing with purple light. "Fourth Soul Skill, Heavenly Fox Guard!" A pink barrier carrying charm and mental defense effects layered itself outside the Domain of Judgment.

Boom—!!!

The four Destruction Torrents crashed fiercely against the dual defenses! The Dark Gold flames burned madly, the acid mist corroded violently, the icy breath froze Soul Power, and the black smoke eroded the mind! The barriers of the Domain of Judgment and Heavenly Fox Guard flashed, twisted, and warped wildly like a small boat caught in a violent storm!

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—!

The Heavenly Fox Guard barrier was the first to fail. Under the dual corrosion of acid poison and Dark Gold flames, it rapidly dissolved and shattered like foam! Hu Liena suffered a heavy blow and spat out blood. Her body staggered backward, and the glow of her spirit instantly dimmed!

"Watch out!" Ling Feng reacted swiftly, wrapping an arm around Hu Liena's waist and pulling her into his embrace. The golden-black radiance of the Domain of Judgment instantly enveloped her completely! At the same time, the God Devouring Spider Spear in his left hand shot out fiercely!

"Devour!"

The Dark Gold spear tip shot forth like a venomous snake, piercing with perfect precision into the roiling black cursed smoke! A horrifying devouring force erupted instantly! The cursed smoke containing intense mental corrosion seemed to have encountered its nemesis and was frantically devoured and absorbed by the God Devouring Spider Spear! Fine patterns along the spear shaft lit up with Dark Gold light, as though being nourished!

"It worked!" A sharp gleam flashed in Ling Feng's eyes. The devouring trait of the God Devouring Spider Spear was remarkably effective against energy attacks!

However, this was only one of the four attacks! The Dark Gold flames, acid mist, and icy breath continued battering the wavering Domain of Judgment without restraint! The domain's light dimmed at a visible rate, while more and more cracks appeared!

"No! The domain can't hold!" Ling Feng could feel his Soul Power pouring out like floodwater through a broken dam! A fierce glint flashed in his eyes as he made his decision!

"Hold on tight!" he barked at Hu Liena in his arms. Before she could react, he kicked off violently! Judgment Soul Power exploded beneath his feet, propelling their bodies forward rather than backward like a cannonball as they charged straight toward the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's main body! Their target—the snake head spewing acid mist!

Rather than passively defending until they were worn down, it was better to attack first and cut off one head!

"You seek death!" The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent seemed to see through Ling Feng's intentions. The head spewing acid mist abruptly turned, pouring down an even denser sickly green toxic fog like a waterfall! At the same time, a nearby head that spewed scarlet poisonous fire also turned toward them. Dark Gold flames mixed with sickly green acid mist, forming an even deadlier torrent of toxic fire!

"Spear of Judgment! Evil-Breaking!"

Keeping Hu Liena tightly protected in his arms, Ling Feng poured every last bit of Soul Power into the Spear of Judgment in his right hand! The golden spear erupted with unprecedented brilliance as its sacred purification power was pushed to its limit! The muscles in his arm bulged. With all his strength, he hurled the spear viciously toward the descending torrent of toxic fire and acid mist!

Screech—!!!

Golden lightning tore through the viscous bloody space! Carrying the supreme will to purify all evil, the Spear of Judgment plunged fiercely into the center of the toxic fire and acid mist torrent!

Boom—!

It was like boiling oil poured over snow! The Spear of Judgment, containing extreme purification power, was the bane of these foul energies! The torrent of toxic fire and acid mist was forcibly torn open with a massive gap! Sacred golden light and destructive black radiance frantically purified and annihilated the poisonous energy around them!

A passage! A short-lived passage forcefully carved open by the Spear of Judgment!

"Now!" Ling Feng roared, carrying Hu Liena as he pushed his speed to its limit. Following the passage opened by the Spear of Judgment, he shot through the blockade of toxic fire and acid mist like a golden meteor and instantly arrived beneath the snake head spewing acid mist!

"God Devouring Spider Spear! Die!"

Killing intent exploded in Ling Feng's eyes! The muscles in his left arm swelled, and the Dark Gold God Devouring Spider Spear, carrying the sharpness to tear through everything and the greed to devour all things, stabbed fiercely toward the relatively vulnerable neck beneath the snake head like a fang from hell!

Splat—!!!

The spider spear containing the Origin of Destruction and devouring traits pierced straight through the thick lava scales without any resistance! An unimaginable baleful devouring force erupted in an instant!

"Hiss-kraa—!!!"

The pierced snake head let out a shriek so agonizing it became distorted! Its enormous body twisted and thrashed wildly! Dark Gold blood gushed out like a fountain! More terrifyingly, it could clearly feel the essence of its life and its Soul Power being frantically drained and devoured by the horrifying weapon embedded in its body! The sensation was more painful than death itself!

The other nine snake heads flew into a rage at once! Frenzied attacks crashed down upon Ling Feng and Hu Liena like a raging tempest! Flames, frost, poisonous mist, Mental Shock... in an instant, the space around them was completely submerged!

Ling Feng gripped the God Devouring Spider Spear tightly and pushed its devouring force with all his strength. At the same time, he compressed the Domain of Judgment to its limit, protecting himself and Hu Liena in his embrace as he endured the mad attacks of the nine snake heads head-on! The golden-black domain barrier flickered and warped wildly like a reef amid towering waves, ready to shatter at any moment!

Protected tightly in Ling Feng's embrace, Hu Liena felt his solid chest, his frantic heartbeat, and the world-destroying attacks surrounding them. An unprecedentedly complicated emotion rose within her. Fear, shock, and a trace of... indescribable security. Looking at Ling Feng's cold, knife-carved profile and the blood continuously spilling from the corner of his mouth, a flash of resolve appeared in her violet eyes!

"Ling Feng! Attack its eyes! The head that spews black smoke! That's its mental core!" Hu Liena suddenly screamed. Her keen fox-demon senses had caught a faint source of mental fluctuations when the Ten Headed Serpent attacked!

Hearing this, Ling Feng did not hesitate in the slightest! He abruptly raised his head, and his golden pupils instantly locked onto the snake head spewing black cursed smoke! Now!

"Eye of Destiny! Judgment Gaze!"

Bzzz—!

At Ling Feng's brow, the phantom image of a vertical eye flowing with golden and dark patterns suddenly opened! A Mental Shock condensed to the extreme, containing the Will of Judgment and the Origin of Destruction, became an invisible spear of destruction. Ignoring the distance across space, it crossed the battlefield in an instant and stabbed viciously into that snake head's cold vertical pupil!

"Hiss—!!!"

The struck snake head suddenly froze! All of its movements halted instantly! Within its cold vertical pupil, golden judgment runes and destructive black radiance flashed and exploded madly! It let out an unprecedented shriek filled with the soul-rending agony of being torn apart! The cursed smoke it spewed instantly dispersed!

The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's offensive faltered!

A perfect chance! A fierce light flashed in Ling Feng's eyes! He pushed the devouring power of the God Devouring Spider Spear to its limit! At the same time, Judgment Soul Power gathered frantically in his free right hand!

"Spear of Judgment! Judgment!"

An even more condensed golden spear carrying the meaning of finality instantly formed. He hurled it viciously toward the snake head that had been heavily damaged by the Eye of Destiny and temporarily lost its ability to move!

Splat—!

The golden Spear of Judgment pierced precisely into the center of that snake head's brow!

Boom—!!!

The spear containing sacred judgment and destructive power erupted violently within the snake head! That enormous snake head, together with a section of neck beneath it, exploded in an instant like a powder keg detonated from within! Dark Gold blood, shattered lava scales, and charred chunks of flesh scattered in every direction like fireworks!

One head of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent had fallen!

"Awooo—!!!" The remaining nine snake heads let out world-shaking roars of pain and fury at the same time! The entire bloody space shook violently! Towering waves surged from the Dark Gold magma blood pool!

However, just as Ling Feng prepared to press his advantage and expand the results, and Hu Liena forcibly raised her Soul Power to cooperate!

Another sudden change occurred!

A horrifying pressure, cold and sinister, filled with endless resentment and the aura of corruption, descended upon this bloody space without warning! This pressure was so powerful that it instantly overshadowed even the fury of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, causing the churning blood pool to freeze solid!

Ling Feng abruptly looked up! Hu Liena's expression changed drastically as well!

At the dome of the bloody space, the air twisted violently like rippling water! A huge, blurred female phantom formed entirely from pure dark-purple energy slowly appeared! The phantom wore a luxurious dark-purple robe and a crown. Her features were indistinct, but her eyes were cold and venomous, seemingly containing all the evil and curses in the world. They pierced through endless space and fixed their gaze upon those below—or, more precisely, upon Ling Feng!

Rakshasa Divine Sense! Bibi Dong!

"My Son of Judgment... you have done very well..." A cold, venomous female voice that seemed to come from the depths of the underworld rang directly within Ling Feng's and Hu Liena's minds. It carried a chill that froze their souls and supreme authority. "But this beast's power... belongs to me!"

With her cold words, a massive demonic claw formed entirely from dark-purple evil energy suddenly reached out from the phantom, ignoring the distance through space. Carrying the horrifying might to crush stars, it grabbed viciously toward the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent below, which had lost one head and fallen into a frenzy!

Its target was clearly the purest primordial fiendish beast origin contained within the serpent's body!
