Chapter 2316 - 1810: Injuring the Black Water Xuan Snake!

The first chapter, asking for subscriptions and monthly tickets~~~~...

The Black Water Xuan Snake had previously ingested quite a lot of water, and at this moment, it opened its mouth wide and a gigantic waterball flew out from its mouth, directly charging towards Qin Fang's frenzied sword aura.

Pop!!!

But before the two sides could make contact, the waterball seemed like it had a bomb installed, and it detonated on its own... This instantly triggered a terrifying wave of explosive water, releasing more power than even a high-explosive bomb could muster.

Under such an explosion, Qin Fang's frenzied sword aura was blasted into fragments... Moreover, there was a rebounding force that almost injured Qin Fang himself; luckily, his body had been strengthened and could withstand such force, avoiding any mishap!

"Don't waste time, hurry up and leave!"

Taking advantage of the gap during Qin Fang's confrontation with the Black Water Xuan Snake, he signaled to Song Yi and the others.

"Young Master Qin..."

Noticing Qin Fang's gesture, Song Yi and the others hesitated for a moment, touched yet also very worried, and started gesturing back to Qin Fang, essentially suggesting to deal with the Black Water Xuan Snake together.

"Quick, go, I can handle it alone!"

However, Qin Fang was quite resolute, immediately waving his hand towards them, signaling for them to leave quickly... As for whether he truly possessed the ability to deal with the Black Water Xuan Snake alone, only he himself knew.

Song Yi and his companions looked at each other and then at Qin Fang and the Black Water Xuan Snake, ultimately nodding their heads in agreement, and swiftly swam forward… their speed was quite fast, almost swimming hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye.

This was not because they were eager to escape, but rather to distance themselves from the Black Water Xuan Snake, allowing Qin Fang to focus on dealing with it.

"Young Master Qin can definitely do it! He has so many trump cards..."

As they swam away, they silently prayed for Qin Fang, especially knowing that Qin Fang had not yet revealed several aces up his sleeve...

The puppet person wasn't released, which was understandable. After all, a puppet person is crafted from metal and is incredibly heavy, sinking directly to the bottom once submerged, unable to aid Qin Fang at all… Perhaps Qin Fang might even need to retrieve it!

Moreover, Qin Fang also reared a creature resembling a dragon; the previous scene of cloud walking and rain summoning had shocked Song Yi and the others deeply, but why it hadn't been summoned this time puzzled them.

In the end, it could only be attributed to some special reason that prevented it from being summoned here...

It could be that the Little Dragon manipulates water but can't swim, or consumed too much energy previously and needs to rest, or is refining the formidable Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi; there are many possible reasons, but none that they could fathom.

Thinking that Qin Fang still had hidden cards, at least he was far stronger than them, even if he couldn't kill the Black Water Xuan Snake. With only himself to worry about, it would be easier to escape, without needing to care for the three burdens.

A Great Grandmaster-level top expert becoming a burden might only occur at times like this...

"Phew~~~ It's good they've left!"

Watching Song Yi and the others swiftly depart, Qin Fang breathed a slight sigh of relief; without their burden, he only needed to hold off the Black Water Xuan Snake, allowing them to escape as far as possible, and then his task would be complete.

With himself alone wanting to escape, it would be much easier...

Whoosh~~~

However, the Black Water Xuan Snake didn't seem willing to let Song Yi and the others escape easily, as they were its slated "prey," and unless they entered its belly, it would never give up.

Yet, it also seemed to understand that continuing to pursue those three "prey" meant eliminating the strongest "prey" blocking its way first, then proceed to chase the others.

Thus, during Qin Fang's moment of relaxation, the Black Water Xuan Snake swiftly launched its assault, its immense body suddenly erupting with an extremely terrifying speed, enveloping a terrifyingly potent force, charging towards Qin Fang.

This time, the speed was so fast, Qin Fang could no longer evade... In water, the Black Water Xuan Snake was akin to a god-like entity; despite its enormous body, it could still move at speeds much faster than humans.

Qin Fang could no longer dodge, gripping the Flowing Shadow Divine Sword tightly, his eyes intensely fixated on the rapidly approaching Black Water Xuan Snake, while his own aura rapidly surged, and the power from the Blood Martial Secret Tome thoroughly unleashed.

Without a doubt, Qin Fang was utilizing all his strength to withstand the Black Water Xuan Snake's frightful strike...

Blocking it would give Song Yi and the others a chance to escape.

But if he couldn't block it, it wouldn't just be him—Song Yi and the others would find it extremely difficult to escape the pursuit of this Black Water Xuan Snake, likely ending up as food in its stomach!

"Roar~~"

The Black Water Xuan Snake wasn't thinking as much as Qin Fang. Its only goal was Qin Fang—it wanted to tear Qin Fang to pieces. Perhaps feeling that its actions were about to succeed, the Black Water Xuan Snake couldn't help but let out a low, angry roar.

At this time, the Black Water Xuan Snake had already crossed several dozen meters. Its head, almost larger than Qin Fang's body, was less than a meter away from him, about to crash fiercely...

But just then, as the Black Water Xuan Snake thought it could kill Qin Fang, the "prey," in one go, it suddenly discovered... a shadow had appeared in front of Qin Fang, unexpectedly and suddenly.

Although the Black Water Xuan Snake was surprised, it seemed not to pay much attention to the shadow. Given its terrifying speed, it couldn't change direction anymore and charged straight ahead, ready to crush the opponent completely...

Naturally, the gigantic head of the Black Water Xuan Snake slammed into that shadow.

Clang!!!

A terrifying sound echoed from the water...

Indeed, it echoed, so clearly that even Qin Fang could hear it, seemingly unaffected by the surrounding water.

At the same time, an incredibly intense impact spread from in front of Qin Fang, tearing through the water around him. The water seemed to open up momentarily, creating a brief vacuum.

Soon, that raging force transmitted from the black shadow in front of Qin Fang and fiercely hit Qin Fang... The terrifying power turned Qin Fang's body into a fish, instantly propelling him backward over ten meters!

The speed... was simply too fast!

If a swimmer could move at such speed, breaking records would be child's play... Covering a distance of over ten meters in less than a second, even faster than a full sprint on land!

This demonstrated just how terrible the impact force Qin Fang endured was... Even though the shadow had absorbed more than eighty or ninety percent of the force, it still caused such a commotion.

"It's underwater, the puppet person couldn't be fully utilized, but it doesn't mean it's entirely useless..."

However, after stabilizing himself, Qin Fang wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, showing a hint of a sinister smile... The sudden shadow was naturally Qin Fang's summoned puppet person, which absorbed most of the impact force for him.

Qin Fang probably only bore about ten to twenty percent, at most thirty percent of the impact force... causing significant internal shock, even forcing him to cough up blood, though not too severe.

By comparison...

Qin Fang's injuries could be considered negligible, whereas the Black Water Xuan Snake's injuries were serious!

At least Qin Fang only spat out a mouthful of blood, while the Black Water Xuan Snake had a bloody hole on its head... Even though the hole seemed tiny relative to its head, it couldn't deny such a fact.

The Black Water Xuan Snake was completely dumbfounded...

Its own terrifying impact was unexpectedly blocked by the shadow... thus, it suffered the equally terrifying impact, causing the skin on its gigantic head to crack.

The terrifying impact was concentrated on its head, and such damage was predictably severe... If it were a human, they'd likely have died from body rupture, unlike the Black Water Xuan Snake, which still survived.

"Howl howl howl~~~~"

The Black Water Xuan Snake was in pain, floating in the water, letting out low whines, and its blood-red eyes showed bits of anguish... Moreover, with a bleeding hole on its head, it grew more agitated.

Qin Fang didn't only use the puppet person as a shield; he also treated it as a weapon... A black spike appeared in the puppet person's hand, which during the collision, pierced through the Black Water Xuan Snake's skull, embedded in its head.

Of course, Qin Fang also cared about the puppet person's condition...

The previous impact was likely more severe than a full-force strike from a thousand-year-old zombie... With even the Black Water Xuan Snake harmed like this, Qin Fang worried about serious damage to the puppet person, considering it shielded him from most of the impact.

"It's alright, it's alright..."

Perhaps due to a preset instinct, even though the puppet person wielded that black spike, it shielded its body with its fists, enduring considerable impact, only its chest slightly deformed, almost unnoticeable without careful observation...
