Dark green smoke formed a copper hammer and hurled it toward Shen Yunfan.
A thunderous boom rang out.
Although Shen Yunfan had seen the Eight-Eyed man attack long ago, he had already cast an escape art and fled.
But although the copper hammer missed him, it smashed solidly into midair, unleashing a heaven-shaking roar.
The sonic waves that followed the thunderous blast spread outward, forcibly knocking Shen Yunfan out of his escaping light.

Seeing this, Shen Yunfan swung his sword and slashed down with immense force, activating his sword technique.
After the python shattered, it transformed into countless tiny snakes that surged toward Shen Yunfan in an all-encompassing tide.
Shen Yunfan's scalp went numb. He hurriedly turned and fled, but the tiny snakes pursuing him suddenly converged, forming a huge black vortex.
Terrifying pulling force surged from within, restraining Shen Yunfan's escape.
"Damn it!" Shen Yunfan's expression darkened, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

The Eight-Eyed man's eight eyes swept toward different directions simultaneously, not even overlooking the space behind his head,
