A blue light halo suddenly released, and the blue silver grass on the ground began to grow frantically. With blue silver grass growing everywhere in the Star Dou Great Forest, Tang San’s strength could undoubtedly be displayed to its greatest extent.
This absolutely wasn’t the time to be merciful. Tang San’s eyes were already filled with a ruthless ice chill.
That closest agility attack type Spirit Master was already in viewing distance. Monstrously fast, dashing in Tang San’s direction just like a phantom.
Seeing the opponent approach, Tang San no longer moved his body, Eight Spider Lances sticking to a tree trunk behind him, suspending him and Xiao Wu in the air.
That pursuing agility attack type Spirit Master was roughly fifty years old. He didn’t have Tang San’s ability to probe with spiritual force, but pulled by the energy he could still sense that he approached the target with extreme speed, and was immediately overjoyed. Seeing Tang San and Xiao Wu’s silhouettes appear before him, both his hands immediately turned into sharp blades, throwing himself forward like a bolt of lightning.
This agility attack type Spirit Master’s spirit was called Spirit Chasing Swallow, excelling in speed and arcing attacks, its attack power unusually high. Right now, in order to pursue Tang San, he had already fully used his Spirit Avatar, and his entire body was like an immense black swallow, cutting straight at Tang San and Xiao Wu with a pitch black chill in the air.
“Stop.”
Tang San shouted.
Just as if following orders, the Soul Chasing Swallow Spirit Sage abruptly slowed in midair, completely stalling in the air, falling towards the ground. His body was already twisted up by numerous and densely packed Blue Silver Emperor. In order to deal with any eventualities, as early as before they met Xiao Wu, Tang San had already spread Parasite Blue Silver Emperor seeds on each member of the Spirit Hall party except the two Title Douluo. Launching it now, was just right to catch him off guard.
However, the opponent had still used Spirit Avatar. It could only really delay him for one second. His body had just started falling, when the Blue Silver Emperor twisting around him were already torn apart by his unreasoning attack power.
But this one second, to Tang San, was already enough.
Throwing himself head on, exploiting the flying ability of the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone, Tang San charged forward in the split second the opponent was restrained. The opponent was originally charging towards him, and under such circumstances, the distance closed in the blink of an eye.
Both Tang San’s hands looped and pulled at his chest, the Clear Sky Hammer already appearing out of nowhere. With a keng sound, the opponent’s hand blades were both scattered the moment he broke free of Parasite.
In terms of both Spirit Power as well as the opponent’s Spirit Avatar strength, Tang San would ordinarily inevitably be sent flying here. But in fact, Tang San still didn’t break out of fighting range. Because, those incomparably sharp Eight Spider Lances were already thrusting towards the opponent’s body from eight directions.
Blue Silver Emperor’s second spirit ability, Parasite, stunning the opponent and frantically breaking free, this was all in Tang San’s grasp of timing. It was just that split second that the battle was already decided.
Tang San’s Clear Sky Hammer blocked the opponent’s attack, but the enormous impulse also made his Clear Sky Hammer rebound. Tang San’s other hand promptly pulled away Xiao Wu, his Clear Sky Hammer directly striking his chest, and the opponent’s hand blades also left bloody scars.
But this was also all that this Soul Chasing Swallow Spirit Sage accomplished. His body was instantly corroded when the Eight Spider Lances entered his body. Tang San clearly felt the opponent’s vitality rush out through the Eight Spider Lances, and his own previously enormously consumed spirit power also subsequently recovered somewhat.
How heavy was the Clear Sky Hammer? Even more when it was mixed with the opponent’s spirit power attack. Tang San felt a sweet taste, and with a belching sound he vomited up a mouthful of fresh blood. But when the Eight Spider Lances left the opponent’s body, it had already completely turned into a dried out corpse, completely emptied by the Eight Spider Lances.
From start to finish, the entire process only took less than three seconds. In practically a single breath, the fight was already over.
If it was a one versus one battle, relying on his two great domains and three great spirit bones, even if Tang San’s spirit power was ten ranks lower than the opponent’s, he could still be certain of victory, even to the extent of a complete victory.
However, right now he basically didn’t have the time to carefully look for the opponent’s gaps to reach victory. Fighting quickly to reach a conclusion quickly let him use this method of using his life to take the opponent’s life, instantly dealing with this Spirit Sage level agility attack type Spirit Master.
What was called using his life to take the opponent’s life wasn’t the same as doing his utmost. What Tang San did was use the smallest price to achieve the greatest results.
He had only spit out a mouthful of blood and suffered light injuries, the chest wounds weren’t deep either. But taking the opponent’s life in return, this was undoubtedly an extremely profitable exchange.
The moment he pulled out Eight Spider Lances, Tang San again pulled Xiao Wu close and shot away. The instant he left his former position, at least four long range attacks struck the place he just was. The other four agility attack type Spirit Masters were already catching up.
Tang San understood that in order to separate Xiao Wu from the pursuers, these agility attack type Spirit Masters had to be dealt with. Otherwise, he basically couldn’t outrun the opponents. If they were blocked by spirit beasts, he and Xiao Wu would be finished. Therefore, he brazenly decided that, no matter how, he still had to think of a way to dispose of them.
On the surface it seemed that he had paid a very small price, but Tang San’s heart was still bitter.
Spirit Sages were after all Spirit Sages, especially Spirit Sages already using Spirit Avatar. In spirit power, he basically wasn’t on their level. Even this comprehensively advantageous exchange just now, Tang San was counter struck in the chest with the Clear Sky Hammer, and right now he was still aching. Those sharp blades streaking across his chest had even more delivered a destructive sharp energy into his body, doing its utmost to drill into him, forcing him to divert a portion of Mysterious Heaven Skill inner strength to drive it out.
Thus, his and Xiao Wu’s speed forward dropped once again. The other four already berserk agility attack type Spirit Masters were catching up with astonishing speed.
Previously pulled aside by Tang San, Xiao Wu stared blankly at the wounds that agility attack type Spirit Sage left on Tang San’s chest, immediately awakening from her charming gentleness. Gathering air to lighten her body, she did her utmost to lessen the burden on Tang San.
“Ge, what do we do?”
Tang San spoke in a low voice as he swiftly rushed forward:
“We have to get rid of these agility attack type Spirit Masters behind us, otherwise we won’t be able to escape. Just now I killed one, there are still four.”
Xiao Wu smiled sweetly, the circumstances before her eyes making her feel as if she had returned to those days she and Tang San faced powerful enemies in the Great Spirit Arena.
“Then let our Three Five Combination give them something to look at.”
While speaking, Xiao Wu embraced Tang San’s neck with one hand, her entire body slipping over Tang San’s shoulders as if boneless, reaching Tang San’s back. As her soft as if boneless delicate body passed Tang San’s body, dense spirit power fluctuations immediately released.
Xiao Wu also hadn’t reached the sixtieth rank, it felt as if her spirit power level wasn’t much different from Ma Hongjun’s.
“They’ve entered. Xiao Wu, in a moment I can directly get rid of two, but afterwards I’ll need some time to readjust. After I’ve lau
nched my attack, it’ll be your turn to bring me running forward, go as fast as you can, my back on yours. Understand?”
Leaning over Tang San’s back, Xiao Wu nodded, expressing she understood.
Due to Tang San previously halting and his speed dropping, the four agility attack type Spirit Masters were already close behind. In order to prevent circumstances like being suddenly attacked, these four Spirit Sages advanced close together, in a moment the distance to Tang San and Xiao Wu was less than fifty meters.
The Eight Spider Lances suddenly rose on either side, and Xiao Wu took one step on Tang San’s back to launch herself into the air at his indication, and Tang San himself stepped with the toes of his left foot on a large tree in front, with a shout turning in a moment, both hands simultaneously rising high, soaring.
The agility attack type Spirit Sages were really too fast, Tang San only did one very simple motion, and they had already closed to within twenty meters, the quartet’s abilities already prepared.
But at this moment, the four bodies simultaneously slowed a moment. The two Spirit Sages on the sides both bound by Blue Silver Emperor Parasite launching in a flash, the gazes of the two people in the middle completely lifeless. Their bodies uncontrollably flew forwards and down, until they struck the ground.
But Tang San also seemed drained, his complexion abruptly turning deathly pale. If not for the prompt support of the Eight Spider Lances. right now he would already be unable to stand.
Soul Chasing Life Taking Yama’s Invitation. Yes, when the Spirit Sages used Spirit Avatar, of all of Tang San’s hidden weapons, only these Soul Chasing Life Taking Yama’s Invitations could kill in one hit with certainty.
Tang San originally refined altogether three Soul Chasing Life Taking Yama’s Invitations, he used one before, and Tang San threw out the remaining two in this split second.
The Soul Chasing Life Taking Yama’s Invitation wasn’t only terrifying in itself, even more important was the combination of technique and Mysterious Heaven Skill. In order to use this third ranked Tang inner sect hidden weapon, Mysterious Jade Hand, Purple Demon Eye, Controlling Crane Catching Dragon, Mysterious Heaven Skill, all four great secret skills were indispensable.
At the fortieth rank, Tang San could only use it once when exhausting his entire spirit power. And now at close to sixtieth rank, simultaneously using two Yama’s Invitations exhausted seventy percent or more of his spirit power. Including the previous consumption, it was naturally rather difficult to take.
“Xiao Wu, help me.”
Tang San shouted loudly. To him and Xiao Wu, right now was their best chance. If they ignored this opportunity, then with Tang San’s already substantially consumed spirit power and Xiao Wu’s low strength, they basically wouldn’t get another.
A formidable pushing force appeared at Tang San’s back. The next moment, he flew out, crashing towards one of the agility attack type Spirit Masters.
Just like the agility attack type Spirit Sage that died under the Eight Spider Lances before, this Spirit Sage tang san chose as target could also only be held for one second.
Seeing Tang San approach, even fully using Spirit Avatar he only had time to issue a frontal attack.
However, just when he prepared to launch his attack, he discovered that he completely couldn’t move his arms and legs.
Xiao Wu had at some unknown time already appeared behind him, arms and legs glittering with dazzling golden radiance, forming a unique layer of armor type equipment over her skin, her entire body was like a giant vise, rigidly locking down the opponent.
This was Xiao Wu’s fifth spirit ability, Soft Bones Lock.
If one was locked down by the Soft Bones Lock at close range, without physical strength more than double that of the wielder, one could only accept being held, until Xiao Wu’s spirit power ran out or she voluntarily left.
But while using the Soft Bones Lock, Xiao Wu couldn’t use any other attack methods. But the effect of this lock was still extremely terrifying, after Xiao Wu again separated from the opponent, the opponent would still be deadlocked for five seconds. This was most important.
Relying on Teleportation and Soft Bones Lock, this Spirit Sage was directly sentenced to death.
Eight Spider Lances violently pierced his body, the essence of his vitality flowing out, and obtaining the replenishment of the Eight Spider Lances draining the opponent’s vitality, Tang San’s mind was greatly roused, instantly recovering forty percent of his spirit power.
Drain, this was Eight Spider Lances’ additional ability. Tang San very rarely used it in the past, because this ability was really too evil, and also too merciless. But now, in order to live, he couldn’t have any considerations. Erupting with all his strength, Eight Spider Lances was the most conspicuous.
With a muffled grunt, the moment Xiao Wu undid the Soft Bones Lock, her body already blocked in front of Tang San. An immense impulse pushed her body back into Tang San’s embrace, and at the same time there still rose a burst of intense sonorous metallic sounds.
Successively striking and killing three agility attack type Spirit Sages, Tang San and Xiao Wu could even be said to have revealed all their secrets. But they were after all confronting four enemies.
The final agility attack type Spirit Sage, watching his three companions unexpectedly dying by the hands of two opponents with spirit power far below theirs, besides fury, there also rose a chill at the bottom of his heart. At the same time as Tang San’s Eight Spider Lances drained, he also launched a sneak attack.
Unfortunately, what he attacked was Xiao Wu using her fourth spirit ability, Invincible Golden Body.
Despite the tremendous impulse pushing Xiao Wu back into Tang San’s embrace, those brief seconds of Invincible Golden Body meant she hadn’t suffered any injuries. One hand embracing Tang San’s waist, both feet pushing off the ground, drawing on the impulse, the two swiftly charged forward. And those sonorous sounds, was Xiao Wu’s other hand firing the Godly Zhuge Crossbow.
She had previously already readied it while held by Tang San.
A series of resounding cracks echoed. The Godly Zhuge Crossbow of course couldn’t injure a Spirit Sage level power, but it could still manage to stop the opponent. Tang San had recovered several tenths of his power. Eight Spider Lances pushing off the ground, shooting out, he brought Xiao Wu to once again fly into the depths of the forest.
Five agility attack type Spirit Masters had already lost four. As long as they entered the forest, Tang San had confidence in relying on Blue Silver Grass to make this last agility attack type Spirit Master unable to attack them. Once he had recovered a bit of spirit power, the two could once again join hands to eliminate this sacrificial agility attack type Spirit Sage. Outrunning the pursuit of the other Spirit Sages wasn’t any difficult matter.
The other Spirit Hall experts were currently more than five hundred meters behind. At this distance they were basically unable to threaten them.
Tang San’s planning and strength, his cooperation with Xiao Wu, had undoubtedly already reached perfection. Relying on their less than sixtieth ranked strength, they still struck down and killed four Spirit Sages within a short time. This was undoubtedly worthy of pride. If it really went according to Tang San’s plans, they would also have a very large chance to break away from the pursuit and escape. As long as they waited until the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Blue Bull Python broke free of Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo’s domain, they would not longer be in any danger.
But the plans of men aren’t equal to the plans of Heaven. Just as they threw themselves into the forest, with the agility attack type Spirit Sage stopped behind them due to the Godly Zhuge Crossbow, suddenly, a blue ghastly great net spread open in front of them.
That large net was constantly dripping with sticky fluid, and a more than three meter in diameter, all over black and white, enormous silhouette appeared in Tang San and Xiao Wu’s line of sight. That great web was spit out by it.
That w
as a spirit beast, and moreover one that Tang San was exceedingly familiar with.
Known as the Wicked Butcher, the Man Faced Demon Spider.
This Man Faced Demon Spider that appeared in front of them was larger than any one he had seen before. Being able to appear here, undoubtedly proved that this Man Faced Demon Spider’s cultivation had reached at least a terrifying thirty thousand years.
In fact, because the terrifying Man Faced Demon Spider was too vicious, it would frequently be hunted and killed by some formidable spirit beasts. Just cultivating to ten thousand years wasn’t easy, let alone several tens of thousand of years. As Tang San saw that enormous silhouette and that spread wide dripping with sticky liquid spiderweb, his heart sank. Could it be that this was what was called chickens coming home to roost? He had killed two Man Faced Demon Spiders before, and moreover possesses their spirit ring and the external spirit bone Eight Spider Lances had given him enormous advantages. But this Man Faced Demon Spider in front of them seemed to have become the end of him and Xiao Wu.
What Tang San could least understand was that he had always scanned the surroundings with his spiritual force, but still hadn’t discovered anything abnormal. Just how did this Man Faced Demon Spider appear?
How could he know that, with the Man Faced Demon Spider being a creature that gobbled up life, the target of all spirit beasts’ loathing, the terrifying wicked butcher, after its strength reached the ten thousand year level, it would gain a special stealth ability. This ability could not only conceal its figure, but at the same time also conceal its aura, even blocking spiritual force probes. Not even Grandmaster knew this, after all, the ten thousand year Man Faced Demon Spider was really too rare.
This was how it could suddenly appear in front of Tang San and Xiao Wu. Clearly, it had already taken Tang San and Xiao Wu for its prey.
Two spider legs on the left side swept against the ground with all their might, raising an ear piercing grinding sound, making Tang San and Xiao Wu instantly tilt, changing their direction into a large arc, dangerously close but not colliding with that spider web.
