As the saber light fell, all the bony tentacles beneath the Dragon Throne surged toward Fang Mo.
A dozen or so white bone tentacles wove a net within the gray-gold mist, closing in from above, below, left, and right at once.
Fang Mo planted his foot on the ground and activated Ember Emotion Soaring Step.
