The black mist landed on the wall, instantly corroding large pits. It's easy to imagine that even in their prime, they probably couldn't withstand being hit by it.
They didn't run away; they just wandered around, making it easier for Zaun to get close to them.
At this moment, two sword-like objects suddenly shot out from the mouth of the Scaled Death Worm and quickly chased after the two women.
It was forged from the large teeth that it had lost over the years, and its power was much greater than that of a human cultivator's flying sword.
Normally, Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen would have countless ways to deal with the situation, but at this moment, both of them were still seriously injured and could only flee in a sorry state, narrowly escaping danger several times.
Because of the difference in the amount of elixirs taken, Yun Jianyue's strength recovery was clearly not as good as Yan Xuehen's.
After dodging several times, he was too exhausted to dodge anymore and was about to use his non-vital parts to withstand the attack, but he was worried that he could not withstand the deadly poison on the opponent's teeth.
At this moment, Yan Xuehen came to her side and pulled her away, narrowly avoiding the danger.
Yun Jianyue was somewhat surprised. The two had been enemies for so many years, each wanting to kill the other. She never expected that Yun Jianyue would save her.
Although she felt grateful, she said, "Who asked you to save me? It's not like I couldn't avoid it!"
As he spoke, he summoned the Star Moon Wheel to block another long venomous fang that attacked Yan Xuehen from behind.
"Don't flatter yourself. Who wants to save you? I just want to kill you myself. I don't want you to die in the mouth of a beast before that happens." There was no warmth in Yan Xuehen's words.
Hearing the two women bickering back and forth, Yu Yanluo, who was in the distance, was speechless. She thought to herself that if outsiders saw this scene, their eyes would probably pop out of their sockets. The two grandmasters who were famous throughout the world were like two sisters bickering all day long.
She wasn't idle either; she kept drawing in the air with her paintbrush, adding various blessings and halos to the two of them.
Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen immediately felt as light as swallows, and their speed, recovery ability, and so on were greatly improved. With their extensive knowledge, they immediately realized that this was the blessing of the painting path in the academy.
Normally, these auras of blessing would be of almost no help to them, and might even have side effects. After all, a Grandmaster needs complete control over their body, and having other things added in haste could easily affect the accuracy of their judgment.
But now that the two women's strength has greatly diminished, these buffs are very useful.
At least when facing the flying fangs of the death worm, he wasn't as badly off as before.
"I never thought I'd end up owing this woman a favor..." Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen both felt a little strange. It was easier to accept that they had owed each other favors before, since they had become very familiar with each other after years of fighting. But owing Yu Yanluo a favor...
The other woman's stunning beauty made both women feel quite threatened. In addition, her close relationship with Zaun, or perhaps her identity as Medusa... For some reason, the two women subconsciously did not want to owe her anything.
However, they didn't have time to dwell on that now, because they sensed that the mother worm's form would disappear and reappear from the ground, clearly roaming around, looking for the right opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to the two women.
If we don't move, we're fine; but if we do, we'll kill!
Both women broke out in a cold sweat. With their sharp eyesight, how could they not tell that in no more than three breaths, they would be unable to dodge anymore?
Just then, a burst of dark light suddenly erupted beside the scaled death worm, and Zu An appeared, thrusting his sword down with lightning speed.
The scaly worm was terrified. Its sense of smell, touch, and intuition were extremely developed, and in the darkness, nothing around it could escape its perception.
But where did this person come from? He didn't realize it until the man stabbed him!
It's too late to try to dodge or retaliate now.
The beast's instincts told it that the dagger was a threat. Its body shimmered with black light as it desperately channeled its energy to build up a defense around itself, preparing to withstand the attack head-on.
Unfortunately, in such a rushed situation, a perfect defense could not be achieved.
The dagger, laced with poison, struck fiercely and successfully sliced through the still unstable protective energy shield.
Finally, the needle struck its scales, producing a piercing metallic scraping sound and sparks flying.
The scales of this scaly death worm are incredibly powerful!
Yun Jianyue's heart sank. As someone who was familiar with the "Shattered Star Seal", how could she not see that there was a fifty percent chance that it had not been activated successfully in that instant!
