As he rapidly retreated, Gu Ran swiftly transmitted a thought to the "Black Water Xuan Snake King".
The next second, the Black Water Xuan Snake King let out a roar and, after colliding with the Blazing Demon, it seized the opportunity to activate one of its abilities - "Petrify Serpent Pupil".
Compared to the Soul Capturing Spirit Eye that Gu Ran had used earlier, the lord-level Black Water Xuan Snake King's Petrify Serpent Pupil was much more domineering. Even the terrifying might of the Blazing Demon couldn't prevent its body from being petrified.
However, the petrification effect was quite weak, only petrifying less than half of the Blazing Demon's body before gradually fading away under the repulsion of endless chaotic flame energy.
