"Eight Gates!"
"Fifth Gate Open!"
The figure, Luffy, suddenly appeared out of nowhere and open five gates right off the bat, buffing his stats to its absolute limit, and causing his body to be surrounded by a mist of blood!
(Luffy: Gomu gomu no elephant gun!)
At the same time, Luffy's slammed his fist right onto the two-headed serpent frost head!
"Pfft!" The frost serpent head was caught completely off guard and its jaw was forcefully shut close!
However, the enormous amount of frost energy gathered inside of the frost serpent's head didn't disappear, and with nowhere to go, it exploded right inside of the frost serpent's mouth!
"Bang!" With a loud boom, the frost energy exploded, and the frost serpent's head which was already severely injured was blown apart into millions of tiny ice crystals!
A single attack from Luffy destroys one of the Foundation Realm's two-headed serpent's heads!
This time, the one-headed serpent was truly scared and frantically twisted its 40 meters long body, shattering the layers of ice encasing its body.
But the one-headed serpent didn't continue to fight the players, instead, it turn around and tried to flee for its life.
Once such a Foundation Realm monster tried to escape, there was really nothing the players could do to stop it!
However, at that moment!
"Flying Sword Brilliant Moon! ! !" A loud roar sounded!
A beam of light flashed by and pierce into the left eye of the poisonous serpent's head, piercing deeper and deeper, before finally reaching the serpent's brain.
After the flying sword frantically starts dicing and slicing inside of the serpent's head, it finally left through the right eye of the poisonous serpent's head covered in a mysterious gray substance.
The two-headed serpent slowly breathes it last and finally collapses onto the ground!
After a short silence, the players cheered in celebration!
"We won? We won yeahhhhhhhh!"
The players burst with excitement!
Many players rushed to the body of the two-headed serpent, excited AF.
Although He Yi Ming was the one to deal the final blow!
But without a doubt!
The Foundation Realm two-headed serpent was defeated by the players!
If it wasn't for the two-headed serpent trying to escape at the end, it will almost certainly die at the hands of the players!
(Quite a tall task to ask when their life is in danger)
"Hahahaha, we won! I have finally killed a Foundation Realm BOSS!"
"This is the power of friendship!"
"A couple of days ago, I was still a small fry, trembling in fear in the face of the Deep Sea King! But now, I have successfully slain a Foundation Realm BOSS!"
"Quick, get a screenshot! Get a screenshot!"
"Stardust Crusaders quickly gather, we're taking a group photo!"
"Master, over here, over here!"
...
The players were very excited, many begin posing and some of them even invited He Yi Ming for a group photo.
"These guys actually manage to defeat a Foundation Realm monster!" He Yi Ming was very impressed!
Was the two-headed serpent weak?
No, not at all!
Frost Breath and Toxic Breath, coupled with the serpent's gigantic size was an absolutely terrifying combination. Having AOE CC, AOE Poison, large Hp pool, and a ton of Tankiness, the only thing the two-headed serpent lacked was speed and agility! Its power was almost comparable to the Deep Sea King in the rain!
When facing the Deep Sea King, the first contact completely obliterated the player army, a single flick knocked out Stardust, standing still created the meme Puri Puri Luffy Chan, and taking a blow head-on made World Number One Ice Mage look like a complete idiot, crippling him on the side!
(TN: The WNOIM one doesn't work as well in English. There is a Chinese expression that goes as "Damaging the enemy 1000, damaging self 800", basically meaning something that damages both you and your enemy but generally damages your opponents more than you. Examples are Eight Gates, Mangekyou pre-eternal, Gears, Deku's one for all, in the OG it's "damaging the enemy 0, damaging self 8,000", doesn't make a lot of sense without this knowledge)
It could be said that three days ago, the players were completely powerless in front of the Foundation Realm Deep Sea King!
But now!
After experiencing the crushing defeat, the players' growth way surpasses He Yi Ming's expectation!
"Cheese!"
Beef Noodle, who was responsible for taking the photo, loudly shouted!
The eighty-seven other players surrounded He Yi Ming, each with their own unique pose (for better or worse), stood on top of the two-headed serpent's corpse, letting out a smile!
"Click!"
After the photo shooting ended, the players began discussing in excitement!
"I wonder what does this BOSS taste like? I hope it's as good as the Deep Sea King!"
"Everyone, don't worry, trust me, snake meat is awesome! Not only can we make snake meat skewer, but there is also snake soup, fried snakeskin and so much more!"
"Get out of the way, let me see where this BOSS's shit is at!"
"The teeth of this snake could make some really nice weapon, who knows, they might even be poisonous too!"
"Don't let any of the snake venoms go to waste, carefully collect it as it will definitely be useful against the next BOSS we fight!"
....
The players' eyes swept around as they can't wait to strip this two-headed serpent's corpse clean, leaving nothing behind.
"Leaving it all to the players would be quite a waste..." He Yi Ming thought of something.
Thus, He Yi Ming remove the two-headed serpent's Inner Core, gall, and most of its blood.
Then, He Yi Ming carefully examined the corpse again.
The Frost Serpent's Head was completely destroyed and had little remaining value.
But the Poisonous Serpent's Head was still basically intact, after a bit of dismembering, He Yi Ming dug out three strange bones emitting a dark green glow.
"Spirit Bone! To think it drop Spirit Bone!" He Yi Ming's eyes lit up!
Beginning in Foundation Realm, monsters will have a chance of producing Spirit Bones.
Spirit Bones are different from regular bones as they contain the monster's powerful bloodline.
One of Spirit Bone's greatest use is to be refined into Spirit Weapons!
Now that He Yi Ming has the material, together with the Forging Hall and the knowledge he gain at Heaven Academy, he was confident in forging a Spirit Weapon!
Spirit Weapons were in a completely different league compared to the random weapons forged by the players!
The weapons made by the players at best are just some mortal weapons, weapons used by mere mortals, in the eyes of cultivators, they're no better than a piece of junk.
Think about it, the Stardust Crusaders opening the Eight Gates and using Armament Haki, wielding three to four meters long greatsword, frantically attacking the weakened two-headed serpent, was only able to barely break through the skin, causing a tiny flesh wound.
However, He Yi Ming's brilliant moon pierced straight through the two-headed serpent's eye, mincing its brain, instantly killing the beast!
That was the gap between mortal weapon and Spirit Weapon!
(Just ignore the tiny details of He Yi Ming's cultivation being an entire realm higher than the players, the fact that He Yi Ming attacked the eye and not the skin, and the fact that when he attacked the two-headed serpent it was further weakened from battling with the players, everything else pans out)
Not to mention, Spirit Weapon has spirit, allowing you to control them at will!
"If I forge a Spirit Weapon and give it to the players...I wonder what surprises the players will have in store for me!" He Yi Ming made up his mind!
