Skyler and Weston exchanged glances with each other at the sight of Wilbur's relentless assault on the flserpent.
It was far too brutal.
The flserpent let out a cry of rage under Wilbur's attacks, turning its head and spitting out a powerful gush of flames that swallowed Wilbur's figure.
Skyler and Weston felt their hearts drop into a pit. It was clear that the flserpent's powers were all fire-based, and none of them would be able to survive an attack of the flames from its mouth.
However, after the flames cleared, Wilbur was still standing there as good as new. There was a layer of armor forged with spiritual energy around him, completely protecting him from harm.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSkyler and Weston could hardly contain their shock. Condensing armor would not only take a large amount of spiritual energy, but it would also require a deep and precise knowledge of one's spiritual energy. Even many Sanctuary level cultivators could not achieve this.
Just then, Wilbur let out a chuckle as he pounced on the flserpent once again, fists at the ready.
The flserpent refused to let up either, howling as it wriggled its body and casting blow after blow with its tail. Flames shot out of its mouth from tto time, in a relentless attack toward Wilbur.
The battle between man and serpent kicked up a cloud of sand and smoke in the valley, filling it with loud rumbles.
The flserpent had Sanctuary level powers and spiritual energy, but it had only recently developed a conscience. It did not even have its own spirit territory yet and thus was not too much of a threat.
Wilbur continued to advance as the battle continued. It was as if he had an unlimited supply of spiritual energy. The energy in his body was so strong that it was terrifying. Despite the flserpent's powerful defenses, it still fell victim to Wilbur's attacks and cried out in pain.
Within just a few minutes, the flserpent seemed to realize that it was fighting a losing battle. It stumbled over ten meters backward, retching and hissing. Its body was covered in injuries, and it seemed to be exhausted too.
Weston and Skyler could hardly contain their awe and respect toward Wilbur.
He had been able to defeat such a terrifying beast with nothing but his bare hands. That was something Weston could never do, let alone Skyler.
The flserpent, already on the losing end, began to puff up its belly all of a sudden. Its throat rippled as well, and a terrifyingly powerful spiritual pressure surged forth.
Weston and Skyler were shocked once more. Was there more to this serpent? Wilbur's expression darkened, and he stared the flserpent down. "Are you seriously trying to play dirty, you buffoon?" Right on cue, a fireball cout of the serpent's mouth.
It was only about the size of a basketball, but it burnt brightly. Symbols and seals hovered around the fireball, and it radiated a terrifying aura as it hurtled toward Wilbur at top speed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWilbur let out a loud roar, clenching his right fist tightly. It crackled with lightning and even seemed to let out a dragon's roar.
Wilbur charged toward the fireball, shattering it with just one blow.
Flames erupted into the sky as an explosive boom cut through the air. However, the flserpent spat out four more fireballs in a row, all of them aimed at Wilbur.
Weston would not be able to take on the power of the fireballs unless he activated his spirit territory.
Yet all Wilbur did was let out a cry and threw a few more punches that shattered those fireballs completely. He rushed up to the serpent, ducking from its huge mouth to grab its tail, and flung the flserpent around.
The flserpent let out a hissing howl, and Wilbur slammed it onto the ground.
Deafening sounds rang through the air as the flserpent's body continued to writhe against the ground.
It was not long before the flserpent's pupils rolled back, and it went limp.
Weston and Skyler gasped at the sight. They had really underestimated Wilbur's powers.
