But this battle was still a tug-of-war, and the situation didn't topple as swiftly in Tang Xian's favor as he had expected.
Because the opponent was just too resilient.
Just twenty seconds ago, the achievements for Unparalleled and Arch Enemy had already prompted in his sea of consciousness.
At this moment, Tang Xian had finally become completely immune to the monster's attacks.
And his attacks could now cause soul damage that ignored any defense.
The soul-rending agony made the hybrid suddenly more lucid. In its eyes, looking at Tang Xian, there was a new-found wariness.
But its logic was simple, even though it was me who struck first, now that we are fighting, we must fight until a victor is determined.
This was the part that Tang Xian found most incomprehensible.
Previously encountered creatures, no matter how astounding their healing abilities, under the explosive speed of the Serpent Stance, would be swiftly defeated after a few punches.
But not this monster.
