Godslayer: At the start, the power of the Five Elements transforms into Iron Fist Tiger.

Thinking this, Ling Yue no longer hesitated. He held his left hand in front of him and shouted, "Wood Spirit Power, Transform!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, five-colored light emanated from the Five Elements Lock on Ling Yue's left hand, and then the green element representing "wood" rushed out and entered Ling Yue's body. (ohGGB, being a hero in a fairy tale)

A passionate yet awkward background music started playing, and wood elements wrapped around Ling Yue's head and arms in turn. Then, Ling Yue roared and forcefully broke free.

The figure that appeared before Hongying was none other than Ling Yue, who had transformed into a divine wood ape, with grayish-brown fur, a green breastplate, and wrist guards. Behind him was a long monkey tail.

Although Hongying found some monkeys quite annoying, Ling Yue's transformed Divine Wood Ape was the opposite, more adorable and less dignified.

When the snake demons in front of Ling Yue and Hong Ying saw that Ling Yue had turned into a monkey, they instantly realized, with their superior intelligence, that they couldn't defeat the monkey in front of them!

Couples are like birds in the same forest; when disaster strikes, they fly away separately. How much more so for the sub-serpent demons now without a leader? To save their lives, they began a frantic escape, falling one after another as they fled, trampled underfoot.

"Oh no, Ling Yue, stop them! Don't let them get away!" Hong Ying hadn't expected this situation either; she thought the snake demon would use its numbers to gang up on them. However, her words didn't stop because of her wild thoughts.

Ling Yue knew the consequences of them running away. He saw the Divine Wood Ape's hands glow with green light, which gradually transformed into thick and powerful vines like pythons, sealing off the stairwell at a speed far exceeding that of the snake demon's offspring.

"Entwined by vines!"

To be on the safe side, Ling Yue surrounded the entire stairwell and surrounding walls with wood elements, turning the entire area into a green city wall.

However, Ling Yue's movements did not slow down at all. The green light wrapped around his hands not only did not decrease but increased, turning into green spears that stabbed at the snake demon's offspring lying on the ground, which had been trampled by the snake demon.

After that, Ling Yue didn't need to do much. With his ability to kill snake demons on his own, plus Hong Ying, the snake demons were completely routed.

"Ling Yue, your wood element is impressive! Even my flames had a hard time burning it." After Hong Ying killed the last snake demon's offspring, she tapped the wall entwined with thick vines with her still-burning spear, her eyes full of admiration and appreciation...

Ling Yue was completely baffled by Hong Ying's action. "Are you really not afraid of burning down the entire dormitory building?!" he thought. "Wait, I understand praise, but what's with this 'affection'?"

But before he could figure it out, he heard a woman's cry for help coming from a corner not far away: "Help...help me! Help me!"

Upon hearing this, Hongying went over first. Looking at the dormitory supervisor in front of her, she asked with some concern, "Auntie, how are you?"

Seeing this, Ling Yue felt somewhat helpless. Hong Ying was usually not one to think things through, but now she would rush to help anyone who asked for help. What if the person was faking it? Ling Yue wanted to teach Hong Ying a lesson, so he didn't stop her.

"I, I'm about to die... cough cough, little girl, can I touch you?!" The dormitory supervisor spat out another mouthful of blood, then slowly and sharply reached out her blood-stained hand towards Hongying's neck.

The dormitory supervisor's old, rough hands transformed into the snake demon's sharp, powerful claws in less than a second. Hongying reacted in time, but there was no way to dodge!

Fortunately, at the crucial moment, a thick, powerful vine wrapped around the snake demon's claws, rendering it unable to move an inch. From Ling Yue's perspective, it really did look like a mother 'stroking' her daughter's neck.

But this 'kind' scene was quickly shattered by Hongying. She grabbed the spear behind her and swiftly delivered a chilling blow to the dormitory supervisor, making her heart soar!

Hongying quickly understood what had happened. The snake demon in front of them was trying to trick them by using their identities as victims, but only Hongying took the bait.

"Sorry, it was my fault." Hongying was so angry that she wanted to slap her head. She was angry at herself for not using her brain. Even a fool would know that there couldn't be any survivors in this situation. Those who ran away had either died or were dead. It was simply impossible for such a situation to exist.

Shenmu Yuan stroked his beardless chin with one hand, then slowly said, "Hmm...not bad. It's good to admit your mistakes and correct them. Sakura, you've been too attached to appearances this time."

Hearing Ling Yue's "you're teachable" tone, Hong Ying instantly hardened her resolve. She raised her hard fist and slammed it into the Divine Wood Ape's breastplate.

"Hmph~ Since you already know she's infected, why didn't you tell me!" Hongying was furious and embarrassed, and she used a lot of force in this attack.

"Holy crap, Sakura, what's wrong with you? I just said one thing to you, why are you getting so worked up?" Ling Yue quickly dodged away when he saw this.

Hongying pretended to fight, and Ling Yue had no choice but to give her a "binding package".

"Sister Hongying! Brother Yue! Are you inside?" Lin Qiye and Si Xiaonan's voices came from outside the stairwell. They knew that many people had entered the girls' dormitory, so they rushed over to help, but the stairwell entrance was blocked by a vine wall and they couldn't get in.

Moreover, after Si Xiaonan's test, she found that she couldn't cut the vine wall with one strike; she could only do it like Bald Qiang sawing a tree—doing it while taking a break.

But after thinking it over and hearing Sister Hongying's voice coming from inside, Lin Qiye realized it was the power of Ling Yue's Five Elemental Locks: the Divine Wood Ape. That explained the scene he just witnessed.

When Ling Yue saw Lin Qiye and Si Xiaonan arrive, he quickly dispersed all the vines binding Hongying and those at the stairwell.

Si Xiaonan and Lin Qiye strode in. At a glance, it was clear how horrific the place was, with severed limbs everywhere and a mixture of blood and burnt smells... It was truly a sight to behold.

"Hey, Sister Hongying, why is your face so red?" Si Xiaonan was the first to ask. As far as she knew, even if Sister Hongying faced so many snake demons of the Zhanjing realm, she shouldn't be sweating or panting, let alone with Ling Yue there.

"Cough cough, I, I was just ambushed by a monster. I'm a little embarrassed and angry." Hongying explained to Si Xiaonan and Lin Qiye who had rushed over, ignoring the fact that she had been tied up by Ling Yue.

Then Hongying explained to Si Xiaonan and Lin Qiye, "This is the first time I've ever seen a mythical creature with such high intelligence. So, its true form isn't here?"

Hongying was quite helpless. If they let such a mythical creature with super infectious and stealthy abilities run rampant, their 136th squad probably wouldn't be able to sleep well.

"That's very likely the case." Lin Qiye nodded helplessly in agreement. That was indeed the case. Sister Hongying and Brother Yue had fought their way through the arriving sub-body, but the mother body hadn't been exposed at all.

"Then... what's that over there?" Si Xiaonan tilted her head and pointed to the end of the corridor opposite her.

Lin Qiye and Hong Ying were stunned for a moment, then turned their heads at the same time, their pupils suddenly contracting!

On a small balcony at the end of the corridor, a monster with a snake's tail and a human body was coiled up. Its black scales emitted a chilling aura in the dim sunlight, and its pair of eerie green vertical pupils stared silently at the four of them.

Hiss hiss hiss—!

Its scarlet forked tongue flicked out, and the corners of its mouth curled up in a mocking smile.

Before they could react, it raised its head, opened its massive head, and seemed to want to roar at the sky.

"No way! Are you kidding me?!"
