It should be noted that Bamon is no longer at its peak. Previously, it had taken advantage of Bai Xu's youth, opting for the simplest and most brutal approach of overpowering through sheer strength. This was akin to a person using their bare fists to strike an oncoming egg; when the fist is strong and the egg is fragile, victory is easily achieved. But what if you replace the egg with a bullet? Now, with Bamon nearing exhaustion and facing the fortified Mountain Water Maze, it is like meeting high-speed bullets with bare fists. Although it can still rely on its resilient serpentine body to hold on for a while, over time, without the ability to counterattack, it will only be trapped and eventually suffocated by the recovering Bai Xu!
The Ba Snake clan is known for its fierce temperament, competitiveness, and dislike for living in groups, with Bamon being one of the best among them. Since birth, it has endured countless trials of blood and fire alone, constantly fighting, devouring others, and strengthening itself, ultimately gaining a fearsome reputation! Having fought throughout its life, how could it not understand the ever-changing nature of battle? Yet, it was at the moment of the human's appearance that Bai Xu turned the tide!
"It's all because of that damned human!"
Bamon struggled frantically within the formation, sensing its increasingly weakened power and worsening injuries. It couldn't help but let out a low growl. If it weren't for the human's appearance disrupting its judgment, how could it have been forced into such a predicament?
"Human friend, I appreciate your good intentions. Your sudden appearance has indeed helped me greatly, but regardless of your backing, please step back a bit. This Bamon has a notorious reputation and will not simply allow itself to be trapped here without putting up a fight. If it truly goes all out, I cannot guarantee that the aftermath won't threaten you."
"Well... alright."
Qian Mo weighed the pros and cons in his mind and felt that Bai Xu's words were not mere exaggeration. Although the situation was special now, things were going well on his side. Adhering to the principle of exerting as little effort as possible, Qian Mo decided to heed the advice and step back a bit to let them finish their fight. Besides, with that Specter's asshole personality, who knows if he would turn against them after winning? Although young Bai Xu didn't seem so unpleasant, he couldn't shake off the feeling that it was still a possibility. Therefore, Qian Mo decisively retreated.
"Hiss!... Roar!"
Suddenly, Bamon seemed to make a desperate stand as it straightened its serpentine body. It's hard to imagine what it looks like for a hundred-meter-long giant snake to suddenly rise upright without any support, especially when its body is covered in blood and its flesh is mangled. At that moment, both Qian Mo and Bai Xu felt an acute sense of life-threatening danger. This feeling was anything but pleasant; it was as if those cold crimson snake eyes were poised to swallow them whole at any moment.
A red light rapidly spread from Bamon's abdomen towards its head; simultaneously, its bone wings fully unfurled and gradually turned crimson. While this appeared to be a process taking time, it actually happened very quickly. In an instant, the red light reached Bamon's head. Seemingly exhausting all its strength, it let out a roar towards the sky; its mouth opened wide as a dark red yet murky orb filled with immense energy surged forth.
"They say the strongest Ba Snake has black, yellow, blue, and red forms, with red being the most dangerous; today I have gained insight! Very well then, let me see how much commotion your desperate struggle can stir up."
