What kind of move is this?

Mo Ling was on high alert, staring intently at Prophet Bai Xiang in the center of the Temple.

However, the next scene shocked everyone present.

The Ram-Headed Man was seen lifting his frame, raising his hands above his head, and throwing it forcefully towards Prophet Bai Xiang, who was charging up.

The frame spun in the air and heavily struck Prophet Bai Xiang on the forehead.

Prophet Bai Xiang's move was instantly interrupted, and the anger on its face became even more uncontrollable.

It no longer paid attention to the team on the side, but instead stared ferociously at the Ram-Headed Man.

The Ram-Headed Man stood in place, still looking as lawless as ever.

Mo Ling had already been preparing to counterattack, but was now stunned by the Ram-Headed Man's actions.

What did it want to do?

The Ram-Headed Man seemed to have designated Prophet Bai Xiang as its new attack target.

Its body slightly hunched, and it charged directly downwards.

While charging, it summoned two massive chainsaws on its arms and swung them towards Prophet Bai Xiang.

Prophet Bai Xiang's fighting spirit was also ignited. The liquid in its left hand began to ripple, transforming into a thick turtle shell, blocking in front.

The Ram-Headed Man's chainsaws cut into the turtle shell. The Chainsaw Chains instantly broke, but it did not stop attacking.

The chain, missing its teeth, retracted into the Ram-Headed Man's body, reappeared repaired, and scraped against the turtle shell again.

Prophet Bai Xiang did not let the Ram-Headed Man continue to wear it down.

The turtle shell glowed slightly and began to soften, embedding the chainsaws within it like soft mud.

Then, two long Bone Spurs grew from the sides of the turtle shell, bypassing the Ram-Headed Man's arms and directly piercing into the Ram-Headed Man's ribs.

But this was not the end. The Bone Spurs transformed into tentacles, expanding from within the Ram-Headed Man, attempting to burst the Ram-Headed Man from the inside out.

Just as the Ram-Headed Man was about to be torn apart, black chain patterns began to appear within its skin.

The chains moved within the Ram-Headed Man's body like parasites, brutally cutting off the foreign objects within, then suddenly drilling out and splashing onto Prophet Bai Xiang's head.

The bursting chains penetrated Prophet Bai Xiang's head, but the head suddenly liquefied and disappeared, causing the chains to fall to the ground.

Prophet Bai Xiang pushed hard, and the re-hardened turtle shell bounced the Ram-Headed Man away.

The severed tentacles remained inside the Ram-Headed Man's body. It ignored them and continued to attack with the tentacles until they were squeezed out by the healing flesh.

The battle between the two monsters left everyone present dumbfounded.

They completely disregarded whether they were injured, only caring if their attacks were effective against the other.

There was no defense, only extreme offense.

Prophet Bai Xiang grew thin Fungal Filaments from its body, piercing into the Ram-Headed Man, who was attacking again.

The Ram-Headed Man swung its hand, cutting the filaments, and plunged the chainsaw into Prophet Bai Xiang's abdomen.

The broken fungal filaments suddenly transformed into black nematodes, one side continuously elongating, hanging down from the Ram-Headed Man's body and drilling into the ground.

Then the nematodes slowly tightened, pulling the Ram-Headed Man towards the ground.

The chainsaw deeply embedded in Prophet Bai Xiang's abdomen, driven by inertia, slid downwards, opening a wound that reached his thigh.

Transparent liquid slowly filled and covered the wound, and in the blink of an eye, there was no trace of injury.

Prophet Bai Xiang lifted his foot, which transformed into a giant needle-like plant leaf, covering the fallen Ram-Headed Man.

The leaf directly enveloped the Ram-Headed Man, and serrated threads grew on the inside of the leaf, beginning to rotate violently.

But a black light flashed, the leaf split into two halves, and the bloody Ram-Headed Man leaped out.

While rapidly healing, it raised its chainsaw again and slashed at Prophet Bai Xiang.

"How long are they going to keep fighting?" a soldier couldn't help but ask.

One was completely unkillable, and the other was constantly changing. It seemed this battle would never have a result.

However, Mo Ling didn't think so at all.

He had discovered subtle variables in this battle.

The Ram-Headed Man's healing ability was still getting stronger!

And it was using the chainsaw in more and more ways.

Slowly, the Ram-Headed Man was no longer limited to extending the chainsaw from its arm, but began to summon chainsaws from various parts of its body.

Prophet Bai Xiang's attacks were becoming increasingly difficult to injure the Ram-Headed Man.

This experienced war machine also seemed to realize this.

Wings suddenly grew from its back, and it flew into the sky, moving away from the Ram-Headed Man.

Then it transformed back into the flame-igniting flying insects and flew towards the Ram-Headed Man.

The Ram-Headed Man did not dodge or evade, but continuously sprayed chains, attacking Prophet Bai Xiang in the sky.

The flying insects reached the Ram-Headed Man, and a burst of fire ignited, directly turning the Ram-Headed Man into a charred mass.

Prophet Bai Xiang knew the Ram-Headed Man's recovery ability was incredibly strong, so he transformed countless flying insects again, adding more fuel to the fire.

After several times, the figure in the flames was no longer moving.

Had the Ram-Headed Man been eliminated?

Even though the Ram-Headed Man was beaten so badly now, Mo Ling, who knew the characteristics of the Red String Worm, did not believe the Ram-Headed Man would be eliminated.

It would only get stronger.

As expected, the figure in the flames slowly began to move.

The Ram-Headed Man, completely red, walked out of the flames.

It had actually summoned miniature chainsaw chains on all parts of its body, covering itself.

When its flesh adapted to this extraordinary high temperature and its healing ability reached equilibrium with the flame's annihilation, it was able to move again.

Prophet Bai Xiang unleashed a barrage of abilities.

Magma, acid, thunderstorms, low temperatures, toxins, and unknown energies with various effects...

The Ram-Headed Man stood his ground, enduring all the attacks head-on.

At first, he couldn't retaliate, then he gradually became able to withstand them, and finally, he became completely immune and began to counterattack.

Each attack from Prophet Bai Xiang added a new defensive ability to the Ram-Headed Man.

The Ram-Headed Man's healing ability also reached an extremely terrifying level.

Even if he was reduced to ashes, he could reappear in the blink of an eye.

Moreover, his use of the chainsaw became increasingly difficult to comprehend.

The Ram-Headed Man even shot countless chains directly from his chest, grabbing straight at Prophet Bai Xiang in the air, almost dragging Prophet Bai Xiang to the ground.

Prophet Bai Xiang quickly transformed and dodged, but at this point, it seemed to be completely helpless against the Ram-Headed Man.

It could only fly around in the sky, and its methods of attacking the Ram-Headed Man began to repeat. It must have already realized that its attacks could only strengthen the Ram-Headed Man.

When Mo Ling saw that Prophet Bai Xiang was also struggling against the Ram-Headed Man just like himself, he suddenly felt better.

The Red String Worm was truly shocking.

Prophet Bai Xiang was flying in the sky and suddenly performed a strange action.

It came directly above the Ram-Headed Man, and when the Ram-Headed Man launched its chain attack, it directly turned into a liquid and fell downwards.

Countless transparent liquids poured onto the Ram-Headed Man, but no attack occurred.

What was Prophet Bai Xiang doing?

The dripping liquid covered the Ram-Headed Man's entire body, sticking to his skin and beginning to merge.

When Mo Ling saw Prophet Bai Xiang's actions clearly, his heart was startled again.

No, I have to stop it quickly. It wants to graft the Ram-Headed Man!
