Whimper...
Arm beheld Basil Jaak's bloodshot eyes and made a strange, crazed sound, like the howling of a wild beast during an oncoming earthquake.
Whoosh! Swoosh!
The black dragon serpent attacked viciously once more, overwhelming Basil Jaak and Arm completely. Its huge tail swept through them, flinging both into the air and then crashing down, leaving Arm and Basil Jaak to sustain new injuries, their bodies trembling and severely bruised.
Whimpering...
Arm struggled to his feet, his eyes devoid of fear, now filled instead with excitement as he fixated unwaveringly on Basil Jaak.
Basil Jaak, meanwhile, was covered in dust, with traces of blood at the corner of his mouth, looking utterly disheveled. An ordinary person would've been injured by the black dragon serpent's assault long ago. But with the Nine Tripods True Qi and Thunderbolt Golden Body Art shielding him, the injuries he sustained were superficial and did not reach his internal organs.
"Ahh!"
