Chapter 22 - The fight

The whirlpool of sand storm grew big all of a sudden and it entered the cave.

  The snake had already noticed this uninvited guest . 

It had already grown wary of these stone golems that visited two times every day , The snake could already feel someone's hand behind these golems.

It couldn't figure out who the mastermind was, but since the golems themselves were not that strong it didn't go out to catch the mastermind.

  Also the presence of many other bigger monsters that the king cobra was wary of made it almost impossible for it to pursue this unknown mastermind. 

But today was different, the snake was really vigilant because its instincts were screaming danger. 

It never cared about the golems that came in the last few days because it didn't feel any danger from them, but today it had an unease in the heart.

So as the sand storm entered the cave , It swallowed the green jade and stood up opening its hood. 

Then it spayed a large amount of poison towards the storm . 

But the storm didn't stop it covered the whole cave and as the snake was covered by the storm.

  It felt cold in its spine as if the scythe of the death god was already on its neck. 

It followed its instinct and sprayed a large amount of dark blue liquid poison towards the front without hesitation .

But a shadow had already appeared on its side and thrust a black spear into the area under its head and pinned it to the wall. 

In great anger and pain , it lashed its tail like a whip at the shadow.

But the shadow was also quick, as if anticipated it took out a shield and sat down in a crouching position to take the hit head on.

A brown aura spread out from the shield. 

A loud boom was heard, which reverberated through the entire cave .

  But before the sound even disappeared, the shadow after taking the hit head on did a round house motion leaving the shield behind.

  It moved too fast for the eyes to catch and appeared very close, face to face before the pinned snake.

Even the snake thought, was this guy not afraid of being bitten by the poisonous hegemon.

  But all of a sudden the snake felt something was wrong , it couldn't feel its lower body .

While doing the round house motion the shadow has already taken a big black blade and slashed the snake at a place little below from where the spear has pinned it.

  After cutting it into two in a clean manner the shadow kicked at the lower part with all the power sending it flying and used the rebound of the kick to retreat back.

The snake was stunned for a second, the shadow appeared for one second, cut it into two and disappeared from right before its eyes . 

It gave out an earth shattering shriek and sprayed out all its poison in one go. 

Within a little time after the shriek was heard, a shadow jumped out of the cave entrance, got to the side and sat down.

" Huh .... That was close... really close... "

After taking some long breaths, Sam started focusing on the cave with his spiritual sense . 

The lower part was wriggling all around the place, pouring out the innards on the floor. 

The upper body was struggling to free itself from the spear.

The green light kept pouring out of the wound, but the upper body was unable to heal or regrow any longer.

  The pain was increasing the struggle of the snake but it didn't last long, after half an hour both parts stopped the struggle. 

Sam waited another half an hour before entering the cave once more.

As he walked a little inside he couldn't go any further as the poison in the surrounding was very high.

He used the earth crystal with the armor to form the energy shield.

  As he got nearer to the snake's body, he saw that the lower body was not moving anymore.

But the upper body has started to decay, this was due to the aura emitted by the green jade .
