Mia and the Humanoid figure are clashing.
Mia's body is almost stationary except for the nine heads of hers that are moving rapidly. The surroundings are covered in the darkest shades of violet Sam has ever seen. She has let out her most potent venoms.
The general seemed to have been effected by that greatly.
His movements are slow, clumsy and he wasn't able to do much damage to Mia. Now only Sam truly understood how weak they are against the truly potent venoms and poisons.
The general that is supposed to be at the peak of Divine plane initiation is not even able to put a proper fight against Mia. But Mia also didn't have a complete upper hand. Sure, she is keeping him at bay and troubling him, but even her most potent poison is not killing that creature.
Maybe the difference in the cultivation levels finally showed its drawback there.
