Attack on Serpent

"I guess I'm ready," I said to myself as I decided that it was time for me to go out.

The automaton opened a portal for me which allowed me to exit the Lord of Lords pagoda and enter the Poison God's trial grounds once again.

I looked around and saw the massive serpent gazing at me in the distance, while Dao Shen, well, the person possessing his body was nowhere to be found.

As if I was electrocuted, every hair on my body stood up, something was coming.

"You're finally out! Damn rat!" he said as he charged at me sword pulled out ready to rip me apart in a single swing.

But, something was strange, the movement of Dao Shen's body was too slow as I was easily able to trace the sword with my eyes and was easily able to dodge to the side.

Confusion was plastered on his face as he looked at me and the sword again, he then sent a divine sense to probe me and spoke, "Lucky dodge, you're still at the Ascendant stage, Die!" he said as he swung again.
