Where are the challengers?

Where did those two massive challengers go?

Someone had arrived at the Hell Road again, and it had been waiting, anticipating what kind of surprises these challengers would bring after the massive commotion earlier.

They had clearly arrived, so why were they nowhere to be seen?

The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent could not wrap its serpentine brain around it, while the two of them had swung directly underneath the narrow path.

They had originally intended to crawl across, but realized that with bodies as large as theirs, they were too easily spotted.

Thus, they continued to retrieve rope from their Soul Tool, choosing the method of swinging underneath.

As for spider silk?

This was not the time to test their lives; rope was the best option.

After gauging the distance, they tied one end of the rope and retreated a short distance, then leaped together. Utilizing the tension of the rope, they vaulted over the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent from below, landing behind it.

Lacking the strength to reach the next section of the narrow path, the spider silk Bibi Dong sprayed from her wrist was enough to pull them up.

Of course, they could also have reached the pillars supporting the narrow path and climbed up from there.

Having bypassed the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent from beneath the path and returned to the narrow road, they were safe; there was no need to face this obstacle at all.

However, Li Pu still produced a bun bomb and said to Bibi Dong, "Inject the death energy of your Death Spider Emperor into this."

Bibi Dong did not ask why, injecting it through her spider claws into Li Pu's bun bomb.

Similar to a combination technique between soul masters, or a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, it could unleash a much more powerful ability.

Li Pu controlled the death soul power injected from the Death Spider Emperor, along with the toxins of the Death Spider Emperor, mixing them with the source of destruction inside until the bun bomb reached its capacity limit.

The Death Spider Emperor Poison Bun Bomb was thus created.

Next, the following step.

Li Pu still wanted the inner core of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, and as a precaution, rather than letting it cause them trouble, he preferred to kill it outright.

At this moment, the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent seemed to have received some kind of signal; it turned around, the tongue slithering on the narrow path slowly rising. Its pair of golden-red eyes suddenly became as bright as lanterns, and the nine fleshy tumors on its back began to emit a golden-red radiance, an invisible pressure permeating the air.

"Run! We've been spotted!"

Bibi Dong, sensing the crisis immediately, grabbed Li Pu and ran. Following behind, Li Pu took out the last of the bun bombs from his dozen storage Soul Tools and threw them backward.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!

The explosive shockwaves slammed into the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent. Although its scales were incredibly hard and possessed nearly impenetrable defense, having so many explosives detonating on its body continuously was far from pleasant.

CROAK!

This, however, only enraged the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, and its speed increased.

In its eyes, all challengers were mere ants; ants only ever had the option to run when they encountered it. When had they ever been able to cause it harm?

Even the two challengers who had encountered it earlier could not do so.

Now that someone actually had, how could it not be angry?

A snake's speed is naturally extremely fast, especially the explosive power it unleashes when attacking, which is extremely dangerous.

The distance between the two sides was closed in less than five seconds.

It opened its blood-red maw and lunged at Li Pu, clearly intending to swallow him in one gulp.

Seeing the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent open its maw, Li Pu seized the moment and threw those two freshly made bun bombs into its mouth.

The interior of the oral cavity was naturally a point of weaker defense, and since Li Pu was acting at such close range, the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent could not avoid it.

The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent could not close its mouth in time, and the Death Spider Emperor Poison Bun Bomb went straight into its throat.

BOOM! BOOM!

Two explosions rang out.

Even though they had detonated inside the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's mouth, its forward momentum was still enough to reach Li Pu.

Li Pu turned, stepping on the snake's lower jaw while bracing his hands against its upper jaw.

The bite force of a giant python is not necessarily massive, but it is not to be underestimated, especially since this was an ancient exotic beast, incomparable to an ordinary python.

But Li Pu was still able to hold on!

The destructive force of the bun bomb explosions combined with the lethal toxins of the Death Spider Emperor erupted inside its mouth. At this moment, it let out a shrill, miserable shriek, and its massive body began to thrash violently.

It was far more terrifying than the painless explosions from before, and when combined with the even more dreadful toxins, it nearly cost the beast half its life!

"Xiao Pu!"

Watching Li Pu being bitten by the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent in mid-air, Bibi Dong shouted in anxious worry!

"I'm fine!"

"Quick, use your spider silk to bind it!"

Li Pu did not leave the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's maw, but instead continued to create more bun bombs and throw them into its mouth!

Strike while the iron is hot, and finish it off!

Without a shred of mercy!

"Die! Taste my firepower!"

Successive explosions erupted inside the mouth of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent. Its struggles grew increasingly violent, and it looked as though it were about to plummet into the blood pool below.

Bibi Dong rapidly shot spider silk onto the body of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, binding it to the narrow path, even using the spider legs on her back to launch additional silk strands onto it.

A massive amount of spider silk held the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent firmly against the narrow path. No matter how violently it struggled or tried to thrash its body, it could not resist the extreme toughness and high tensile strength of the silk, to say nothing of the constant stream of new silk being added.

However, this also caused large cracks to appear on the narrow bridge beneath them, threatening to shatter it at any moment.

"Not good!"

Bibi Dong continued to release spider silk in front of and behind the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, ensuring that even if the narrow path were destroyed, it would not fall, allowing her to keep it hooked so Li Pu could pull it back.

Li Pu continued his assault on its mouth, the explosions constantly battering its throat. Blood mixed with toxins sprayed out continuously, and Li Pu erected a barrier of soul power to protect himself.

Within those golden-red eyes, a sense of fear of death finally emerged, and the nine golden-red fleshy tumors on its back grew increasingly bright.

It was at this moment that Li Pu quickly pulled away from the massive maw of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, though he was sent flying by the force. With quick reflexes, Bibi Dong shot out a strand of spider silk and pulled him back.

Suddenly, the nine fleshy tumors on the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent shattered simultaneously. Nine streams of golden-red liquid shot into the air and fused together, contracting into a golden-red sphere the size of a fist. It began to pulse, releasing terrifying energy, as if it intended to take them down with it.

"Death Domain!"

As soon as Li Pu's voice rang out, Bibi Dong did not hesitate to cast the Death Domain upon the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent.

Now in an extremely weakened state, it was unable to withstand the domain's assault.

Having released its inner core, its already dwindling life force grew even fainter. The sudden application of the Death Domain directly severed its connection to the inner core.
