"Second punch, Crack!" The left fist followed closely, slamming into the face of the right head. The sound waves stopped abruptly, and the head collapsed completely, losing all life.
Upon seeing this, the middle head shrank back in fright, but Yu Tianheng grabbed it by the neck. His eyes were icy cold, and with a sudden burst of strength, the head was crushed with a crisp "crack," and warm liquid splattered all over him.
Its massive body swayed, and the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King's giant wings drooped limply, crashing heavily to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.
Yu Tianheng took a breath, shook the dirt off his hands, and then circulated his Blood Demon Skill to collect the essence blood from the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King.
Once we get out, we'll refine their essence and blood to enhance our cultivation.
A moment later, Yu Tianheng completely collected the life force of the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King and stored it in his System Inventory.
He turned to look at Hu Liena and said calmly, "Let's go, let's keep going."
Hu Liena looked at the wreckage on the ground, then at Yu Tianheng, who was covered in blood but had sharp eyes. A complex emotion flashed in her eyes, and she quickly followed after him.
At this moment, Hu Liena realized that her strength was far too weak compared to Yu Tianheng's. If it weren't for Yu Tianheng's presence, it would be nothing short of a pipe dream to try and get through this Hell Road.
The two then continued on their way.
Yu Tianheng remained vigilant.
If I remember correctly, after the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat, there is another boss, the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent.
The Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent is an ancient beast from the primordial era, the supreme among serpents, incredibly venomous, possessing the most powerful fire poison among serpents, its fire poison even having stepped halfway into the realm of Ultimate Fire.
Its body is enormous, exceeding 10 meters in length, and covered with fiery red patterns, each scale the size of a palm. Although it is called Ten Heads, it does not have ten heads, but rather ten autonomous nerve centers distributed in ten fleshy growths on its back.
Its strength is comparable to that of Soul Beast with a cultivation of 80,000 or even 100,000 years. It possesses an immortal body and can be reborn as long as its ten nerve centers are not completely destroyed.
In the original storyline, Tang San and Hu Liena encountered the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent in the second level of Hell Road. Tang San, relying on techniques such as the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, worked in perfect harmony with Hu Liena to successfully shatter several of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's tumors.
Finally, the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent released its inner core, attempting to perish together with Tang San and the others. However, Tang San ultimately used the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer to completely kill it and obtain its inner core.
The inner core of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent is extremely precious, as it contains most of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's abilities. It has an effect similar to Soul Ring, can neutralize any snake venom, and is effective against all snake-like creatures.
Tang San originally intended to use it to restore Xiao Wu's soul and physical body, but later gave it to Ma Hongjun to help Ma Hongjun break through and make it his Seventh Soul Ring.
Of course, all of that is in the past. Tang San is still fighting hard in the Hell Slaughter Arena. It will take him at least two to three years to accumulate a hundred consecutive victories. Before that, he had already taken down the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent. There was no need for Tang San to make a move.
If I could obtain the inner core of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent and refine it, I might be able to make further progress in the path of Martial Dao and break through the bottleneck of Martial Saint.
With this thought in mind, Yu Tianheng quickened his pace.
Soon, the two faced off against the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent.
Not far in front of Yu Tianheng, a figure that blotted out the sky appeared. It was the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent. Its body was coiled like a giant crimson python, and the ten fleshy tumors on its back glowed with a scorching red light. With each breath, it spewed out a heat wave with the smell of sulfur.
"Be careful, this is the primordial beast, the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, which is extremely powerful." Yu Tianheng turned his head to look at Hu Liena beside him and whispered a reminder.
Hu Liena's fox Martial Soul had quietly possessed her; her fluffy fox tail swayed gently behind her, while a hint of stubbornness lingered in her golden vertical pupils.
Hu Liena bit her lower lip. "I won't hold you back." Ever since she stepped onto the Hell Road, she always felt that Yu Tianheng was protecting her at every turn, and that feeling of being treated as a weakness made her very uncomfortable. At this moment, the oppressive aura of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent was like Mount Tai pressing down on her, and she didn't want to become a burden to him.
Before the words were finished, the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent suddenly let out a deafening hiss, which did not come from any specific head, but rather burst forth simultaneously from the ten fleshy tumors, forming an invisible sonic shockwave.
Hu Liena's eyes sharpened, and she charged forward with her toes touching the ground, her fox tail unleashing a large swath of Charm purple mist in an attempt to disrupt the prehistoric beast's senses.
But she had only taken three steps when the fleshy lump in the very center of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's back suddenly burst open with a ball of crimson flame. The flame had no trace and instantly transformed into a pillar of fire several meters in diameter, crashing towards her with the power to burn mountains and boil seas.
Hu Liena's pupils shrank sharply, and she hurriedly activated her Soul Power to condense a fox-shaped shield in front of her. However, the flames seemed to have a life of their own, easily tearing the shield apart without even letting her see its specific shape.
"Bang--"
With a muffled thud, Hu Liena was sent flying like a leaf caught in a gale, crashing heavily into the rock wall behind her. She groaned, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, and the luster on her fox tail dimmed considerably in an instant, clearly indicating that she had suffered a serious injury in that single exchange.
Seeing this, Yu Tianheng frowned. He was about to turn around to help when he saw that the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent's attention was completely locked on him. The remaining nine fleshy tumors lit up red at the same time, and a new round of attack was brewing.
The next moment, the snake's head suddenly spewed out a crimson flame, which rushed straight at Yu Tianheng with the power to burn everything.
"Hmph." Yu Tianheng snorted coldly, and his True Qi erupted instantly. A pale blue protective aura, like an eggshell, enveloped his body. This was Protective Gang Qi that only high-level martial artists could use.
The pillar of fire struck the layer of protective energy, emitting a sizzling sound, but it was firmly blocked outside, not even scorching the hem of Yu Tianheng's clothes.
Then, Yu Tianheng tapped the ground with his toes and suddenly burst forth, using the recoil to rush towards Hu Liena like an arrow. He drew a line in front of him with his fingers, and purple lightning intertwined to form a temporary shield, which he forcefully passed through the gaps in the fire net.
Almost instantly, he rushed to Hu Liena's side, bent down, and scooped her up in his arms. Hu Liena weakly opened her eyes, about to say something, when Yu Tianheng pressed down on her shoulders. "Don't speak."
He carried Hu Liena, his steps never faltering, and in a few leaps he landed in a relatively narrow crevice in the rocks. The terrain here was secluded, making it difficult for the massive bodies of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent to enter.
Yu Tianheng carefully leaned Hu Liena against the rock wall, quickly checked her injuries, and after confirming that she was not in immediate danger, he turned to face the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent roaring outside the crevice. He then warned Dugu Yan, who was hiding there, "You stay here and rest assured, I'll go deal with this beast!"
