Chapter 246 – Striking The Snake’s Vital Seven Inches (2/2)
“Did I say anything wrong? Take that Gold Core and obediently stay here and don’t cause any trouble. Careful that I might find the opportunity to blind your eyes!”
“Hiss~!” The huge dragon head rose up, “I would like to see if you have the ability!”
The snake tail whipped towards Lei Yu. With such a strong force behind it, even if Lei Yu’s bones were super hard, he didn’t dare to stay still and receive such an attack. The Sky Devouring Sword immediately dodged to the side. The Dragon-Snake’s tail created a raging wind that blew past but didn’t land on Lei Yu.
Lei Yu was quickly racking his brains for any knowledge on a snake’s weakness.
“I’ve got it!” Lei Yu’s eyes brightened up. There’s a saying: “When striking a snake, strike the seven inches.” But when it came to such a huge monster, seven inches was an impossible location. Yet according to similar proportions, that vital spot should not be difficult to find. Lei Yu was constantly looking for an opportunity; even if he can’t accurately hit the seven inches, the three inch area will still take its life!
The seven inches refers to the place below the head which is where the heart is. And the three inches refers to most vulnerable part of the snake’s spine. As long as a heavy strike hits any of those vital areas, even if they don’t die, they will be seriously injured.
Lei Yu’s body was continuously dodging the Dragon-Snake’s attacks, and couldn’t find any opportunities. The Dragon-Snake’s body was wrapped around the meteorite so there was no way for him to accurately calculate the location of its weakness.
After dodging another heavy strike, Lei Yu’s figure retreated furiously. The Dragon-Snake thought Lei Yu wanted to escape so it quickly unwound itself to chase him. Unfortunately for the Dragon-Snake, it had fallen for Lei Yu’s trick!
Lei Yu had no intentions of escaping, he just wanted give himself some space. Just relying on its tail, the Dragon-Snake was able to perform attacks. And it was merely as simple as swinging its tail. But for Lei Yu on the receiving end, each swing of the tail carried forth a heavy attack so he had to avoid it. If this continued and more time went on, the situation would become more unfavorable for Lei Yu.
Locking onto the target on the Dragon-Snake’s back, Lei Yu roared out: “Thirty-six Lunar Star technique, sixth form!”
With a bright flash of light, Lei Yu ignored his body blasting backwards. He aimed at the target and slashed down with his Sky Devouring Sword. The target was exactly the area of the Dragon-Snake’s heart!
A large circular purple light mixed with white starry dots was shining brightly. This was like adding a dazzling star amongst the vast Chaotic Star Sea.
The circular light was very thin, almost paper-like, but the cutting power of it was unquestionable. The circular disc flew at the Dragon-Snake at almost instantaneous speeds. Realizing the power behind the attack, the Dragon-Snake suddenly panicked. The speed of it was just too fast and the Dragon-Snake didn’t have time to avoid it.
The Dragon-Snake immediately shook itself, and its huge body made a slight movement. One could only see the circular disc fly away without making any sounds as if the attack didn’t land on the target. Only a white light had lightly flashed on the Dragon-Snake’s body before the disc flew off into a distance and disappeared.
Lei Yu was gasping for air before quickly injecting internal energy into the Sky Devouring Sword so that it could remain afloat to support his body.
A few seconds later, a piercing scream came out from the Dragon-Snake’s mouth. As if it had gone completely crazy, its body was twisting continuously and its tail was thrashing all over the place. The meteorite had been smashed apart by its tail, creating numerous broken pieces of stone that floated off into the Chaotic Star Sea.
“I’ll take your life while you’re injured!” A light flashed on the palm of Lei Yu’s hand and a white ball appeared. Some internal energy was injected into it before he tossed it towards the Dragon-Snake who was still struggling in pain. One could only see white lightning shrouding the area before striking down in an overwhelming force. The dense web of lightning started striking from different directions onto the Dragon-Snake’s body.
“Oooopletely broken. The scales of the Dragon-Snake had some defensive properties to it originally, but now it couldn’t handle that thick lightning. There were now a number of charred areas on its body. Its huge dragon head then shook one last time… The Dragon-Snake never thought that its life would end at the hands of a person in the Gold Core stage.
