I opened my eyes weakly, feeling completely drained. Where am I?
"This is the shrine you have been seeking all along."
My vision was still blurry, and I couldn't see who was speaking, but I knew it was that giant snake.
Sure enough, the stench was just as nauseating as I remembered from last time.
I struggled to sit up, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get up. Through the haze, I caught sight of the Flame Pool.
From the boiling magma in the Flame Pool, a figure slowly emerged.
I endured the discomfort in my body and pinched myself hard; I absolutely could not faint. If I did, there would be no hope for survival.
"Tell me, why did you capture me?" I thought if I could buy even a moment, it would help. I absolutely cannot die!
"You don't need to know."
As he spoke, a massive tail followed, and the giant snake opened its mouth.
Am I really going to die?!
Prisoner, it seems I want to see you one more time.
Also, Moon, I'm sorry.
Suddenly, a suffocating darkness enveloped me. Is this really the end?
"Pure Sound, Fourth Realm, Break." It was Yu's voice. Thank goodness.
Every time life hangs by a thread, it is the moment of breakthrough. Yu is truly my savior!
"Fission, Rift Sky Seal."
I poured everything into activating Pure Sound within me, gathering all Soul Energy into my inner core. This one strike must succeed; otherwise, even if I have to self-destruct, for White Soul and everyone else, I will kill this monster!
Xi Meng, don't be afraid anymore. Become strong!
The pure white Soul Energy inner core spun rapidly, generating immense power as it rubbed against the fragments.
"Come on, you'll be the first to try—Rift Sky Seal!"
All Soul Energy flowed into my right hand and struck fiercely into the giant serpent's mouth.
Countless white beams of light surged upward. Break for me!
I will not rest until every bit of Soul Energy is exhausted; there are no more chances!
"Ah—ah—ah—"
A blood hole was created in the head of the serpent, surrounded by Magma. If I fell in, it would all be for nothing.
I barely summoned Little Pink, as my Soul Energy was dwindling, and Little Pink was not in much better shape. There was no choice; one of us had to die in this battle against the giant serpent.
Little Pink weakly helped me to the edge of the pool, lacking even the strength to speak before returning to my body. Thank you, Little Pink. Get some good rest; maybe we can still survive!
Watching the giant serpent thrash about, the entire Flame Pool swelled with its violent movements, splattering some Magma onto me, burning hot and frightening.
This giant serpent was strange; how could it withstand such high temperatures while submerged?
The serpent's agonized roars began to slow down, its body starting to split apart segment by segment until it reached the tail.
"Bang!" It shattered completely into chunks of flesh.
The tension in my nerves finally eased as I collapsed onto the ground.
My consciousness grew hazy; now it was up to Silver Moon and the others to find me.
I gently closed my eyes.
"Hahaha, heaven is helping me, heaven is helping me!"
What?! I was suddenly awakened by that voice. The giant serpent was not dead yet?!
Gritting my teeth, I looked towards the Flame Pool. Oh my god!
I was stunned!
This must be the true form of the giant serpent!
Its black body glimmered with cold light from its scales, and at its head, there were actually three heads!
The left one was silver, the middle one was black, and the right one was golden. Six eerie green eyes were all fixed on me.
I sighed in resignation; with my current Soul Power, I didn't even have the strength to self-destruct.
"I should really thank you, little girl." The three voices, each with a strange tone, spoke simultaneously. It sounded quite disgusting.
I didn't want to say anything. Of course, I wouldn't be foolish enough to think it would thank me or even let me go.
"If you have any questions, you can ask now. I will tell you everything, hehe." The Three-Headed Serpent really seemed pleased.
"What is your connection to the Cursed Child?"
I spoke up; there were many unanswered questions, and I was unwilling to let it go.
"Alright, since I'm in a good mood, I'll tell you." The Three-Headed Serpent emerged from the Flame Pool, its massive tail coiling around me again and placing me in front of it.
"I am indeed a divine beast, but I once broke the heavenly rules and suffered the excruciating cold in hell every day. Eventually, I managed to escape and came to this underworld, where I have since resided in Holy Spirit Village."
It seems that its body had been harmed by the cold, which is why it was injured by Silver Moon's Frostblade of the Cold Prison. Thus, it must fear the cold and needs to soak in this Flame Pool.
"Hmph, they tricked me into being trapped in hell. If I hadn't run fast enough, I would have been tortured to the point of being reduced to bones. However, they still sealed my true form and left me with a body full of cold energy."
"So your weakness is fear of the cold?" Is that why it was injured by White Soul's mother, the Snow Demon clan?
The Three-Headed Serpent's gaze suddenly flickered with danger as it pulled me closer; we were now less than ten meters apart.
"Since I dare to tell you this, I certainly won't be afraid of any tricks you might play."
"Hah, given my current situation, what else can I do?" I showed a look of despair while continuously calculating how to deal with it in my mind.
"This Holy Spirit Village possesses Divine Power, but it's very weak. It's simply not enough to heal my injuries. However, later I discovered what they call the Cursed Child."
"Is the Cursed Child's inherited Divine Power the strongest?" I asked in confusion.
If that's the case, combined with what Zhen'er mentioned about various phenomena earlier, White Soul must be a Divine Child and definitely not a Cursed Child!
"That's right. However, the Cursed Child happens to have an excess of cold energy within them that I cannot withstand. Therefore, I can only soak them in the Flame Pool after they die and then consume them. I must rely on Divine Power to recover."
"So, you see me and know that I possess Divine Power, and since the cold won't harm you, you chose to give up on the Cursed Child option for me?"
"Haha, you are absolutely right. You are nothing but beneficial to me."
The Three-Headed Serpent flicked its three blood-red tongues, and when they touched my face, I could clearly smell the foul odor.
"If I'm not mistaken, you still can't consume me, right?"
The Three-Headed Serpent froze; I knew I was right.
"Hmph, don't celebrate too soon. With your Divine Power protecting you, I can't touch you. However, if I soak you in the Flame Pool, I can still devour you then," the Three-Headed Serpent said viciously.
My face turned pale; it seemed there was truly no way out. I could only hope that Silver Moon would find me soon.
"Alright, I see you have no more questions. Then I'll take my leave!" With a flick of its tail, the Three-Headed Serpent tossed me into the Flame Pool.
You ask if the feeling of being engulfed in flames could be pleasant? Of course not; I couldn't hold on for long.
I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself.
What I didn't realize at that moment was that the name I called out was—Silver Moon.
