Rumble-!!!
The Dharma Body of a snake demon in the Transcendence Realm was no trivial thing. The shock waves from the collision of two overwhelmingly powerful forces swept outward like a hurricane!
The entire Green Snake Mountain Range, stretching a million miles, shook violently. Its indestructible foundations of immortal gold became as brittle as bamboo strips, sliced clean apart by those shock waves!
A terrifying, bottomless chasm appeared in the earth!
Golden divine blood poured down like a waterfall, swiftly staining the shattered mountains and rivers red.
Yet even so.
Within the Green Snake Mountain Master's body, cleaved in two, no exposed true spirit appeared as expected!
Buzz!!
Almost at that very instant!
A pillar of azure light erupted from the forbidden grounds on Rear Mountain, tens of millions of times brighter than a star!
This was the Green Snake Mountain Master's life-saving trump card, the innate divine ability he took such pride in-
[Life-and-Death Molt]!!
This heaven-defying divine ability was originally a means for the Green Snake Lineage to undergo a complete transformation when facing a life-or-death calamity.
Using it now to save his life naturally came at an agonizing price.
Not only would it consume an enormous amount of his essence, it would even damage the very foundation of his Transcendence Realm cultivation!
But with his head severed from his body, how could the Green Snake Mountain Master afford to care about any of that?!
Had he not molted, his true spirit would already have suffered a devastating wound, leaving him no chance of recovering!
As things stood now... at least he still had a sliver of hope!
"Stop him!!!"
As that pillar of life force shot into the sky, the Green Snake Mountain Master's command, furious yet tinged with terror, thundered across all of Green Snake Mountain!
