The Ten Thousand Spirits True Fire had been burning fiercely inside the Pill Furnace for a full seven days.
Though Si Taizhen's Magical Power was formidable, she had reached the point of utter exhaustion. She no longer even had the strength to protect her own clothes. Her Treasure Robe had long since been incinerated into ash by the astonishing heat of the Ten Thousand Spirits True Fire.
She had simply revealed her True Body, transforming into a Soaring Serpent over twenty zhang long. The scales on her back were a cool, dark color, which transitioned to a creamy white on her belly, all shimmering like jade.
Unlike the other Snake Demons of the Jade Poison Kingdom, whose appearances were sinister and ferocious, brimming with dark Demon Qi, Si Taizhen's Soaring Serpent form was graceful. Her serpentine body was long, slender, and supple, possessing some of the aura of a legendary Auspicious Beast.
She coiled her body into a Snake Array, protecting her mother in the center.
