The instant he leaped into the air.
The Lava Crocodile stomped the ground again.
The rock Qin Siyang had just been standing on shattered completely, melting in the scalding magma.
Below him now lay a flowing river of blazing gold and crimson.
If this strike failed, he would most likely never get another chance.
Even with the Red Silk Armor on, his resistance to extreme heat had its limits.
He could not possibly move freely through magma steaming with scorching, acidic fumes.
Without question, this was his final strike.
Live or die.
Qin Siyang contorted his body into an exaggerated bow.

Qin Siyang himself hung in midair, his
