The Jade-Scaled Snake looked smug.
Meanwhile, Lin Ke was growing somewhat irritated by the venom chasing him.
The venom clung like maggots burrowing into bone. He could neither evade it nor scatter it with his attacks, making it quite troublesome.
Clearly, the Jade-Scaled Snake had no intention of fighting him head-on, so it kept using its venom to stall him.
Although Lin Ke had no fear of this kind of attrition, he wanted to end the fight quickly.
After all, the other disciples had already been blocked by the Demon Beast horde and could not seal the breach in the formation. If the Jade-Scaled Snake held him up too...
Then more and more members of the Demon Race would pour through the breach. If this continued, the situation would become extremely unfavorable for them.
So he had to deal with the Jade-Scaled Snake first.
Since his opponent believed he was only formidable in close combat and lacked sufficient ranged attacks...
With a thought from Lin Ke, Mental Power abruptly gathered within his Niwan Palace.
Moist-Egg Transformation-Divine Mill!
His eyes suddenly lit up at that instant.
An invisible mental wave surged out, like an invisible heavy hammer smashing viciously into the Jade-Scaled Snake's Sea of Consciousness!
"Buzz-"
The Jade-Scaled Snake's smug expression abruptly froze.
It was as though millions of steel needles had exploded inside its head, shredding its consciousness outright.
"No..."
Its fierce yearning to live made it let out an uncontrollable, shrill hiss.
But before its voice faded, its gaze scattered, and its enormous body abruptly crashed to the ground, all life leaving it.
The Jade-Scaled Snake had fallen!
With the Jade-Scaled Snake dealt with, the venom pursuing Lin Ke instantly dispersed, having lost its controller.
Lin Ke immediately turned and headed straight for the breach in the formation.
