Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!

Chapter 431 Turning Point

The fight continued with Ace and the Flame Serpent locked in a fierce exchange of moves and tactics. The Flame Serpent's fiery breath attacks were relentless, and Ace had to keep his agility at its peak to avoid being engulfed by the searing flames.

Ace recognized the need to find the serpent's weaknesses and seize every opportunity to strike. He aimed for the gaps between the serpent's armoured scales, targeting its head, neck, and underbelly. With precise strikes, he managed to land several blows that left the serpent hissing in pain and frustration.

The Flame Serpent, despite its immense size and power, was not invulnerable. Ace's relentless determination and adaptability began to wear down the serpent's defences. With each strike, the serpent's fiery armour showed signs of weakening.

However, the Flame Serpent was not one to back down easily. It countered Ace's attacks with quick, venomous lunges and tail strikes. Ace had to rely on his agility and quick reflexes to narrowly evade these retaliatory moves.

The fight took unpredictable twists and turns, with the Flame Serpent occasionally gaining the upper hand with its sheer size and strength. Ace's agile manoeuvres were his lifeline, allowing him to avoid the serpent's more devastating blows.

The mountain range bore the scars of their intense struggle, with smouldering earth and scorched rocks. 

As the fight raged on, Ace's determination and adaptability were put to the test. The Flame Serpent's relentless fiery breath attacks and lunges kept him on his toes. Each evasion was a dance with danger, as the intense heat and searing flames threatened to engulf him.

Ace knew he could use his other powers to make the fight more easier but his aim was to test his prowess to the limit bit by bit and not to test his overall strength.

Ace continued to target the serpent's weaknesses, finding the gaps between its armoured scales and focusing on the areas where its defence was slightly weaker. With each precise strike, he chipped away at the serpent's fiery armour, causing it to hiss in pain and frustration. The once formidable scales now bore the scars of Ace's unyielding assault, with cracks and charring marring their fiery surface.

The Flame Serpent, undeterred, countered Ace's every move with venomous lunges and swift tail strikes. Ace's agility and quick reflexes were his only defence against the serpent's deadly fangs and tail, narrowly avoiding each strike with calculated grace.

The fight took them through the mountain range, leaving a trail of devastation in their wake. The once pristine landscape was now scarred with smouldering earth and scorched rocks, a testament to the intense conflict between man and monster.

Ace knew that victory was within reach, but the Flame Serpent was not to be underestimated. As they continued to exchange blows and manoeuvres, it became a test of endurance and willpower. The mountain range echoed with the clash of fire and fury, and Ace's determination remained unshaken as he fought to prove himself once again in this battle.

The outcome of this fierce confrontation hung in the balance, and Ace was prepared to give it his all to emerge victorious against the colossal Flame Serpent.

As Ace and the Flame Serpent continued their grueling battle, the mountain range bore witness to their relentless struggle. The fiery exchanges of blows and maneuvers left a trail of destruction in their wake, with smoldering earth, scorched rocks, and the remnants of their fiery confrontations painting a vivid picture of the intense combat.

Ace's agile and precise strikes had taken their toll on the Flame Serpent. The serpent's fiery armor showed clear signs of weakening, with visible cracks and charring in its scales. The creature hissed in pain and frustration as Ace's relentless assault continued to find the gaps in its defenses.

However, the Flame Serpent was far from defeated. It fought back with venomous lunges and tail strikes, always ready to counter Ace's every move. Ace's quick reflexes and nimble evasion were his lifeline, allowing him to narrowly escape the serpent's deadly fangs and tail, time and time again.

The fight had now become a test of endurance and willpower. Both combatants were determined to emerge victorious. Ace's heart pounded with the thrill of the fight, his determination unshaken. He knew that with each precise strike, he inched closer to his goal.

The mountain range echoed with the clash of fire and fury as man and serpent continued to engage in their epic struggle. 

In the midst of this fiery exchange, the Flame Serpent unleashed a scorching jet of flames that came dangerously close to engulfing Ace. His agile evasions had kept him safe thus far, but the searing heat and intense flames were inching closer.

In a split-second decision, Ace tapped into his Origin ability, calling upon the power within him. With a surge of energy, he created a wall of ice to defend himself. The sudden manifestation of ice was a stark contrast to the serpent's fiery breath.

The jet of flames clashed with the icy barrier, creating a spectacular display of steam and sizzling heat. Ace's creation held strong, protecting him from the searing flames. The Flame Serpent hissed in frustration as its attack was thwarted.

Ace's use of ice as a defense marked a turning point in the battle.
