However, Great Emperor Huo Li burst out from behind the shattered void, viciously hacking the Heaven-Piercing Giant Sword, wreathed in blue fire, into the Black Lotus Two-Hearted Crocodile's left hind leg.
Hiss!
The Heaven-Piercing Giant Sword sliced straight through the red protective energy covering the Black Lotus Two-Hearted Crocodile's body, shattered its tough scales, and left a wound hundreds of zhang long.
Although the wound did not look particularly long, it was very deep. Vast quantities of dull gray blood gushed out of it.
Roar!
The Black Lotus Two-Hearted Crocodile roared in pain. It had never expected Great Emperor Huo Li to be so cunning. It had miscalculated.
Having landed his strike, Great Emperor Huo Li did not pause. He completed another eleven consecutive spins on the spot, and his body vanished again.
"Damn it!"
The Black Lotus Two-Hearted Crocodile roared in fury. Earlier, it had still been able to scheme against Great Emperor Huo Li, but now his attacks were becoming increasingly unpredictable, leaving it unable to guard against them all.
The next instant, the void above the Black Lotus Two-Hearted Crocodile's head shattered. This time, it dared not be careless. It immediately opened its mouth and fired a red beam into that patch of shattered void.
Hiss!
The red beam shot into the void, but Great Emperor Huo Li did not appear.
Then a second patch of void shattered. The Black Lotus Two-Hearted Crocodile swept its two enormous tails toward it, but still failed to hit Great Emperor Huo Li.
The next instant.
Boom! Boom!
Two patches of void beside the Black Lotus Two-Hearted Crocodile's head ruptured simultaneously. Both gave off intense energy fluctuations. The crocodile swung its claw fiercely, slamming it toward the void on the left.
Rumble!
Its claw, packed with immense power, smashed the void
