At once it dashed left and charged right, but whether because it had spent too much strength in its fierce fight with the Blackwater Mystic Serpent, or because the power of the Trapped Dragon Enclosure was simply too great, it struck the walls again and again and could not break out no matter how it tried; instead the mysterious force rebounded upon it, and its wounds all over its body looked the worse.
