Chapter 104: The Fall of the Eight-Headed Serpent

Duan Fengyun looked at the Eight-Headed Serpent's tail, where the bleeding had stopped, and then looked at the Jue Sword in his hand.

He patted his head and said to Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun:

"I was truly too stupid. Just now, when I pierced its seven-inch mark, I should have stuck the Jue Sword there and let it suck the serpent's blood dry.

I was truly careless; now the Eight-Headed Serpent has gone completely insane.

Both senior brothers, you must be extremely careful."

Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun nodded, and Bu Jingyun spoke up:

"It's fine. Senior brother Nie and I will continue to act as bait, and you wait for an opportunity to insert the Jue Sword into its wound."

Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun soared into the sky, constantly provoking it in the air. The Eight-Headed Serpent, already desperate and on the verge of going berserk, was enraged by their provocations.

The Eight-Headed Serpent fell completely into a frenzy, and its eight heads bit toward Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun regardless of the consequences.

Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun took advantage of the Eight-Headed Serpent's irrational recklessness to circle around it.

Taking this opportunity, Duan Fengyun leaped several times and arrived at the Eight-Headed Serpent's seven-inch mark.

After being wiped by the saliva from the serpent's tongue, the wound at the seven-inch mark had actually stopped bleeding and was beginning to show signs of healing.

Time waited for no one; Duan Fengyun flew into the air and then threw the Jue Sword like a flying knife toward the Eight-Headed Serpent's seven-inch mark.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss!"

Only then did the Eight-Headed Serpent notice that another detestable human had run to its seven-inch mark and had even thrown something onto it.

The Eight-Headed Serpent noticed at this moment that the blood throughout its entire body was converging toward the seven-inch mark and draining away—what exactly had that detestable human done!

The sensation of blood loss brought the Eight-Headed Serpent back to its senses; it abandoned its pursuit of Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun and turned its heads toward its seven-inch mark.

It saw that detestable human's weapon stuck in its seven-inch wound, and its entire body's blood seemed to be being devoured by this sword.

One of the Eight-Headed Serpent's heads extended its tongue, coiled it around the Jue Sword, and threw it away.

Seeing this, Duan Fengyun soared into the sky to catch the Jue Sword, and he couldn't help but wonder:

"What is going on?

If the Jue Sword is not under my control, it would never stop devouring."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the Jue Sword emitted a series of sword hums, and Duan Fengyun, who had already achieved Man-Sword Unity, finally understood what was happening.

He laughed:

"I didn't expect there would be a day when you would be full from drinking blood."

It turned out that the Eight-Headed Serpent's blood was simply too abundant; the Jue Sword had just been stretched to its limit.

It just so happened that the Eight-Headed Serpent wanted to pull out the Jue Sword, so the sword logically flew out from the serpent's seven-inch mark.

But now that it was full, the Jue Sword's blade was radiating red light. Through the Jue Sword's infusion, Duan Fengyun felt that all the True Qi he had just expended in the great battle had been restored.

He jumped up again and slashed fiercely at one of the Eight-Headed Serpent's heads.

This time, a full-power strike of Man-Sword Unity actually severed this head of the Eight-Headed Serpent, and the head fell right off from the base.

"Clang!"

The massive serpent head landed on the ground, making a huge thud.

The Eight-Headed Serpent looked at the head lying on the ground in disbelief; since ancient times, no one had ever been able to cut off its head.

Unforgivable; this human must not be left alive.

It did not want to let the three of them walk out alive; likewise, the three of them could not possibly let it continue to exist in this world.

Now, relying on the extreme sharpness of the Jue Sword, Duan Fengyun had enough confidence to easily finish off the Eight-Headed Serpent.

Duan Fengyun discussed a "two-protect-one" tactic with Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun.

As the name suggests, the two-protect-one tactic meant that Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun would stand in front of Duan Fengyun, attracting the Eight-Headed Serpent's attention while Duan Fengyun was responsible for the final blow.

But the Eight-Headed Serpent had now regained its reason, and it had already fallen for the trick once; would it fall for it again as easily as Duan Fengyun expected?

The answer was, of course, definitely not.

The Eight-Headed Serpent would not pay any attention to Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun at all; its target now was only Duan Fengyun.

Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun rushed in front of the Eight-Headed Serpent and, seeing its blood-red eyes staring at them, mistakenly thought their scheme had succeeded.

The two flew off in two different directions, thinking the Eight-Headed Serpent would chase after them.

As a result, they turned their heads to look and saw that the Eight-Headed Serpent hadn't moved at all; all of its heads were aimed at Duan Fengyun.

"Not good, this thing knows that Junior Brother Duan causes it the most damage; its target is Junior Brother Duan."

The two hurriedly changed direction to turn back and help Duan Fengyun.

Duan Fengyun found it quite amusing that this serpent monster could realize that he caused it the most damage and wanted to eliminate him first.

This Eight-Headed Serpent was underestimating him too much; even without the two of them, how hard could it be for him, Duan Fengyun, to deal with you?

Duan Fengyun directly stepped on the Wind God Leg, and his sharp, swift footsteps turned him into an afterimage.

This maneuver directly dazzled the Eight-Headed Serpent, and for a moment, it couldn't even see where Duan Fengyun was.

Duan Fengyun sneered, leaped like a fish, and arrived directly behind one of the heads.

Then he picked up the Jue Sword and swung it hard, and the head fell to the ground in response.

Having had its heads cut off by Duan Fengyun twice in a row, the Eight-Headed Serpent went crazy again.

The remaining six heads kept bombing the cavern, and the three of them, standing on the cliff above the serpent's heads, found the sight of the maddened Eight-Headed Serpent quite amusing.

Bu Jingyun said:

"A beast is a beast; with just a little bit of trickery to lure it, it loses its mind.

Junior Brother Duan, don't play with it anymore, let's end this quickly!"

"Alright!"

After Duan Fengyun replied, he flew directly toward the Eight-Headed Serpent again.

This time he didn't choose a single head; he stood behind the heads and slashed fiercely at all six of them.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

The snake heads of the Eight-Headed Serpent fell to the ground in response once again; this time five heads fell, and the eight-headed, eight-tailed Eight-Headed Serpent had now become a single-headed, tailless snake.

Seeing this, the Eight-Headed Serpent knew it was no match for this group of people, so it prepared to flee.

But at this point, how could Duan Fengyun and the other two easily let it go?

As for the Eight-Headed Serpent, which now only had one head left, Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun, holding the idea of beating a drowning dog, rushed forward and slashed fiercely at the Eight-Headed Serpent's body.

The Eight-Headed Serpent shrieked in pain, and seeing that it could not escape today, it prepared to perish together with the three of them.

Duan Fengyun, who saw through its little scheme, did not give it a chance and directly chopped off its last head with one sword strike.

Just like that, after the three of them finished off the Eight-Headed Serpent, they laughed and turned around, preparing to walk out of the cave.

But the three of them, having turned around, did not know that the last snake head had not closed its eyes before dying; it stared viciously at the three of them, and then its mouth kept trembling, as if it were about to spit something out.
