The wyrm swallowed Senior Jiang in one gulp, then, without a second thought, gulped him down.
After swallowing him, it saw that Xiang Yuan and the other two had not moved at all and realized it had been tricked. It flexed its stomach muscles, preparing to vomit Senior Jiang back up.
How could Xiang Yuan let it have its way? With a thought, Senior Jiang unleashed a barrage of fists and kicks. Terrifying force burst from within, exploding into clouds of blood outside the wyrm's body.
Blood spilled out, gathering into trickles through the gaps in its scales as a rain of blood drifted down from midair.
"The pain is killing me!"
Its screams lasted only moments before its twisted, knotted body crashed to the ground. Like a giant python coiled in place, it contracted desperately, trying to crush Senior Jiang inside into pulp.
Senior Jiang did not turn into pulp. The wyrm became minced meat first.
Xiang Yuan closed his eyes and controlled him. A moment later, scarlet light burst from his eyes.
With a violent pop of bursting flesh, Senior Jiang tore through hide and scales, covered head to toe in filthy blood. Senior Jiang held two demon cores the size of footballs in his arms.
One was Roc Demon King's demon core, Mist Wyrm King's spoils; the other was Mist Wyrm King's own demon core.
The wyrm had been tortured by the agony until it fainted several times. Its guts were ruptured and its belly torn open as it groaned on the ground. The pain left it without even a shred of strength to resist. All it could do was watch helplessly as Lone Star came hurtling down, followed side by side by Great Sun Moonlight.
Spirit Transformation cultivators possessed the divine ability to regrow severed limbs.
