Before Jiang Shouzhong could act to intervene, Ran Qingchen had already darted toward the grotesque demon like an arrow leaving its bowstring.
The demon let out a deafening roar.
Its arms, which were originally clutching its head, began to elongate in a twisted and horrifying manner. Veins bulged visibly, and muscles squirmed beneath its skin.
Swish!
The elongated arms whipped through the air, carrying a nauseating stench, aiming fiercely at Ran Qingchen.
Ran Qingchen lightly tapped the tip of her foot, gracefully evading the ferocious attack.
Without delay, her hands moved swiftly, executing her spell-formations like elegant orchids.
Thick black mist, as dark as ink, surged from around her body. These mists intertwined and converged, forming a massive python in an instant.
The black mist python's eyes gleamed with a blood-red light as it lunged at the demon, coiling tightly around its body.
Amid audible crunching sounds, cracks began to appear across the demon's body.
