A decent battle strategy... Chen Qi coldly manipulated the Shadow Touch,
Unfortunately, Chen Qi understood the Snake-man all too well, as it was inherently a profession skilled in underhand tactics.
The greatest feature of the Snake-body Incarnation was its ability to contort its body at will, making way for an array of unimaginable attacks.
The burning Shadow Touch entwined around the right fist of Snake Father—
After making his move, Snake Father's body would fall into temporary weakness.
"Now, it's my turn!"
Snap! Snap! Snap!
Chen Qi made no superfluous movements and immediately struck a Draw Sword Slash pose. Black Qi Power waves swirled around the blade, emitting waves of roaring sounds, as if a massive black tsunami was imminent.
And the four tendrils behind Chen Qi fiercely lashed out!
Snap! Snap!
Snake Father suddenly withdrew both arms, assuming a defensive stance.
The tendrils roared and whipped out with terrifying forces, each lash was as formidable as a punch from a Third Rank Blade Phase Transcendent.
Snake Father wanted to continue blocking, but the next moment, he felt his entire body dominated by dual sensations.
Chen Qi's lashings were no ordinary ones; these were the entwining lashes of the tendrils, delivering not only pain but also a bizarre, pleasurable sensation!
Pain intertwined with pleasure! Snake Father couldn't believe it.
"How is this possible!"
"A regular Third Rank Transcendent managing to perfectly wield such powerful taboo equipment."
In an instant, Snake Father felt an intense crisis, assured of the vast gap between him and Chen Qi.
And more critically, Chen Qi, who was unleashing the tendril lashes, hadn't moved from his Draw Sword Slash stance.
The next second—
The six additional tendrils behind Chen Qi viciously lashed, forcibly smashing Snake Father's massive body into mid-air.
The perfect wooden post—
Boom!
Draw Sword. Black Wave Slash. Cutting All!
Chen Qi fiercely swung his sword, slicing through the air in front of him, and in an instant, a black Qi Power tsunami surged—
In a flash, a spark struck!
Snake Father's scales, tougher than steel, were forcibly severed, spurting fresh blood! His entire body also shook violently under the overwhelming Qi Power!
The Meat Cutting Bone Breaking skill, combined with Black Wave Slash, this strike could be regarded as the strongest blow under Chen Qi's Blade Release.
Under the impact of the Black Wave Slash, Snake Father struck the steel wall behind him, the entire wall harshly shattered by the immense force.
"Ha, ha, ha—"
Snake Father's eyes bloodshot, he kicked out, sending Chen Qi flying back as he was about to strike again.
Massive amounts of blood trickled from his chest.
Had it been an ordinary Transcendent, like Captain Sea Snake, they might have been cleaved in two after this strike.
Had it not been for his flesh surgery, which enhanced his physique to an astonishing two hundred points, coupled with the protection of his scales, his heart would have been split in two.
Previously, Snake Father was exceedingly arrogant. After the emergence of the Crack Tide, too many Third Rank Transcendents with weak basics emerged. Thus, in Snake Father's eyes, Chen Qi was among them.
However, this strike thoroughly awakened him.

The Transcendent before him was no less formidable than he!
"This is no newly promoted Third Rank; this is a monster! A complete monster!"
And in that instant, Snake Father felt a threat to his life, a desire to evolve, mingling emotions together to form a thick desire of the Cup, which made his body without any more limitations—
"But that's it!"
"Boy, regret it! Regret disobeying my command; now, you've lost the qualification to be my slave!!"
At that moment, Snake Father drew his blood-stained body from the dented steel wall, no longer holding back:
"Cup Release. Big Python Wrapping!"
Boom!
In an instant, Snake Father's body swelled again, revealing bulging bronze muscles that resembled numerous giant pythons, seemingly ready to devour anything in proximity.
In that instant, Qi Power entwined around Snake Father's back, transforming him into a hundred-meter giant snake.
This was the power of Cup Release!
"Boy, experience this! The real moves of this world!
"Release. Big Python Wrapping. Python God Fist!"
Snake Father no longer stuck to mere technique; his right hand, bound by countless pythons, burst forth with numerous white vapors, hammering a punch toward Chen Qi.
He intended to smash his opponent purely with raw power!
As if hundred pythons charged at Chen Qi.
Release... Chen Qi didn't hesitate to position his long sword across his chest.
This was his first time to withstand a Release from a Third Rank Transcendent! And a Cup Seer's Release could double his strength, physique, for a short period!
"Blade Release. Sacrifice My Flesh..."
Chen Qi murmured, his body entwined with silver-white Steel Qi.
Clang!
Both erupted in an instant!
A massive airflow burst!
Boom! Faced with this tremendous force, Chen Qi was brutally pushed back five steps, hitting the steel wall; thankfully, his tendrils protected him from much of the impact.
But still, this Release from Snake Father, born of his life's will, was too powerful—
The reverberations of the power seeped into Chen Qi's organs, with countless sharp blades stabbing randomly between them.
Had it not been for Chen Qi mastering Blade Casting and Body Refining Technique, combined with Steel Qi, and the power absorption from Sacrifice My Flesh, this strike could have caused him permanent internal injuries.
