The battle intensified.
Tentacles struck from above.
From the sides.
From below.
Lin Mu moved continuously, his body a blur as he destroyed each incoming attack. Cattaleya fought beside him, her strength matching his in raw force.
Still… They had underestimated something.
The reach and scope of the lava. It was simply everywhere and before they could realize it something appeared from behind Meng Bai…
CRACK!
SLICK
A tentacle erupted!
It was fast, silent and most of all deadly.
It surged upward, aiming straight for him.
Meng Bai turned around, but it was already too late... The molten limb was already upon him.
The moment stretched thin and everyone saw the tentacle.
It erupted from the molten ground behind Meng Bai with terrifying speed, its form surging upward like a spear forged from living lava. Its surface churned and bubbled, droplets of molten rock flying outward as it closed the distance in an instant.
"Meng Bai!" Cattaleya shouted.
