But something unexpected happened to the monk!
Although the ten strands of fire threads did not pierce through the golden silhouette, they suddenly flashed with red light, transforming into thick red chains of fire that spiraled swiftly and firmly bound the golden silhouette.
The monk, seeing this, was momentarily stunned, but then raised his hand without hesitation and flicked it towards the air.
A white sword light shot out from his fingertip, slashing fiercely towards the chains of fire.
With a melodious and crisp sound, red and white lights intertwined slightly, and the sword light was rebuffed, carving only a small notch the size of a bean on the thick fire chain, unable to completely sever it.
This time, the monk in the silver robe's face darkened.
