"Blood Burst!"
Blood, almost imperceptible to the naked eye, erupted from his skin and hair.
As it pierced the snake's body, the blood molecules flowed in reverse.
The snake swarm inside began to rot.
Fused with their toxins, the decay accelerated.
The Snake Queen felt her scalp begin to throb.
She clawed off a handful of snakes, crushing them into dust in her hand.
Feitian roared with laughter:
"So ugly! Utterly hideous! You have a tumor on your head!"
"Who are you calling ugly?"
Scales shot towards Feitian.
Feitian dodged and weaved through the attacks with leisurely grace.
The snake woman shot lasers from her eyes, only to have her attack shattered by a blast of flame.
Xiao Yu grew to a colossal size, her tail whipping towards the snake woman's face.
A hundred and eighty-degree rotation!
Feitian laughed again: "Interesting, her head is about to fall off, how amusing!"
The Snake Queen straightened her head, but the snakes on her forehead began to stir.
"Is it the King?"
"It seems so, he's stronger and more handsome."
"The Snake King has appeared, do we still need to stay here?"
"We should obey the Snake King, shouldn't we."
The snakes pulled their tails from her head, and the snake woman became utterly enraged.
"You traitors! You're betraying me for mere human slaves!"
"That's not entirely fair. We stayed with you because the King hadn't appeared yet. Now that the King is here, of course, we'll go find him. Oh, and do you want to be Queen? You could lay some eggs, too."
Xiao Yu opened her mouth, and a torrent of flames scorched the snake woman's face.
"Please, you're so ugly, don't blame me for this."
The Snake Woman was furious. Since these fair-weather friends were going to die anyway, they might as well all perish!
She spat into her hand and smeared it on her hair.
The snake swarm, corroded by venom, began to writhe erratically.
Zhai Yan conjured a blood-red spike from his palm and plunged it into her hand.
Amidst the agony, black blood seeped into her body, ravaging the snake woman's cells.
At the same instant, Fu Yunting severed her tail.
Deprived of its head-snakes and its tail, only an ugly torso remained suspended in the air.
The Snake Woman let out a bizarre shriek.
An Nuan then witnessed the most peculiar sight yet.
The Snake Woman's neck contorted and twisted back into place with a series of clicks. Her skull bulged outwards, and a small mass emerged from the center of her forehead, burrowing down through her chest and abdomen.
A tiny tail emerged from below her abdomen, gradually growing longer and continuing to extend downwards.
How disgusting!
Fu Yunting dismembered the snake woman from the head down. Her head suddenly transformed into a monstrous creature filled with fangs.
One wave of teeth was decomposed, but another followed.
"So annoying!"
Lin Shui leaped to the highest point and raised his left hand.
The sonic electromagnetic cannon targeted the snake woman's head.
A flash of white light, and half her head was blasted off.
But the head healed at an incomprehensible speed.
Fu Yunting had already slowed her time to a near standstill, yet her cellular activity exceeded his imagination.
"This recovery ability is too bizarre!"
"Fu Yunting, are you sure you stopped her time? It feels strange to me, and that touch just now was also odd, almost insubstantial."
Yun Man and Gui Tian, being marine life, possessed more sensitive perception fluctuations than terrestrial creatures.
They could clearly sense the slightest changes in ocean currents miles, even tens of miles, away.
Fu Yunting felt it too. His time control always felt like he was grasping at a fleeting thread, yet never quite holding onto it.
Fu Yunting frowned, "Could it be spatial abilities?"
"Heh heh, you fools, it's too late to discover this now! My spatial abilities can distort three dimensions. Once I twist your world with other worlds, you'll all be finished, hahaha!"
A mass emerged from the tip of the tail, its body slick with mucus as it shook its hair.
Its pale, greenish face bore golden beast-like eyes that gleamed. A long tongue licked its face, removing the slime but immediately coating it with more saliva.
This was its true form!
"Damn, are you Orochimaru?"
An Nuan unfurled her spatial wings and flew up, releasing CoCo as she approached.
The phoenix's sacred flames caused the snake woman's skin to burn.
She clutched her head, crying out, "Get away, you dead bird! I'm almost done. Once I connect the space, I'll have you all croak!"
"Ugly monster dreaming, ugly monster dreaming again!"
"Dead bird!"
The Snake Woman abandoned her colossal body and hurled her torso at CoCo.
The golden flames, merely a casual swipe, reduced the remaining body to ashes.
An Nuan's skirt swept towards the Snake Woman, binding her neck, limbs, and torso firmly as she was pulled outwards.
The Snake Woman shrieked, "Impossible, you can't catch me, I can distort space!"
An Nuan sneered, "Coincidentally, I'm also of the space element. I can devour space."
Within the range of the Starry Sky Devour, all beings, objects, and even space itself were drawn into her own spatial domain.
Once in her realm, naturally, they came under her control.
You're not insubstantial? You're not ethereal?
Keep drifting then!
An Nuan controlled the Starry Sky Devour, gradually decomposing and absorbing the Snake Woman's spatial abilities.
She felt two spatial energies collide and merge, gradually forming a new spatial power.
Not devouring, nor distorting, but manipulation!
An Nuan looked up at the spatial rifts and, with a casual flick of her wrist, several tears instantly sealed.
Only a few larger ones had not fully vanished.
The more she absorbed the Snake Woman's abilities, the stronger An Nuan's spatial control became.
It could even evolve into spatio-temporal manipulation!
However, absorbing the Snake Woman's spatial abilities was not easy. She soon discovered a protective barrier around the ability, resisting her invasion.
If she forcibly absorbed and decomposed it, she feared being counterattacked by this barrier in the end.
An Nuan narrowed her cold eyes. The Snake Woman chuckled sinisterly, "You can't swallow me, can you?"
"My abilities aren't so easily stolen! As you encroached upon my power, you were also within my attack range. It's just that you're a bit stronger than me now, but don't get smug. I'm a fusion, and you're still a pregnant woman. Let's see who outlasts whom!"
Pregnant?
Luo Luo blinked her eyes: [Pregnant? Tian Nan, do you know about this?]
Tian Nan shook her head: [Nuan Zong hasn't had a physical check-up, so I don't know. Do any of you know?]
Chen Wenjing: [Never heard of it. She was drinking iced cola last night.]
Hai Changfeng: [Then she probably doesn't know she's already pregnant!]
Feitian wiggled his waist with a chuckle, "She is, about two months along. I was the first to know! Heh heh, three, there are three of them!"
Feitian was extremely sensitive to life pulses.
Later, when they met, he had sensed the presence of three other small lives.
"Amazing, truly amazing, heh heh, super interesting. I'm looking forward to their birth!"
"Interesting? Young Master, should I restrain Feitian and force him to tell us why?"
Zhai Yan walked behind Fu Yunting.
At this moment, Fu Yunting had no interest in such matters.
He just wanted to know how, after two months without her period, she had shown no alarm whatsoever!
