The abyssals' corrupt acid wasn't like normal beasts', it didn't just melt flesh and bone, but disintegrated the target's very mana.
A single direct hit and not even the Hunter of Yano could maintain his beast manifested, leaving him vulnerable.
Zhao launched a wave of silver feathers, their deadly precision cutting through the night air. But the salamander was ready, his corrupted body prepared for this moment.
His purple muscles tensed to their maximum, enduring searing pain as he launched forward while his body twisted in unnaturally fluid motions to dodge each projectile by mere millimeters.
'I have you!' His throat expanded, preparing the stream of corrupt acid that would end the legendary Hunter.
At this distance there was no way to dodge, all he needed was one direct hit to turn the tide of battle.
Victory was within his grasp.
His jaws opened beyond what should be physically possible.
