Tie Dagang hurried toward the mountainside as the snow-capped peak suddenly collapsed. An immense mass of snow poured down, instantly filling the cavern beneath the hole Xu Yi had just carved through the summit.

The melted snow became a surging torrent of hot water that spread throughout the cavern.
Meanwhile, the avalanche above the summit had yet to stop. More snow poured into the now-empty cavern.

The flames they unleashed carried truly terrifying energy. The torrent, which had already filled nearly half the cavern, was boiling under their intense heat.
Yet the immense blocks of snow continually falling from the ceiling poured into the nearly boiling water, and the flood rose at a terrifying speed, almost visibly.
"Hold it shut! Keep it sealed tight! This is our one shot!"
"Trust Boss Xu! Fight!"
"Watch this—Eight Dragons Split the River!"
