Chapter 69 - Xu Xue's Death
Chapter 69: Xu Xue’s Death
“Ah, help!”
Xu Xue had seriously twisted her ankle, and she was pressed to the ground by a boulder.
She looked at the Twin-Winged Tiger and screamed with horror as it lowered its head that was emitting green flames.
“Ah, let her go!”
The other rookie yelled as he hurriedly got up from the ground and aimed his crossbow at the Twin-Winged Tiger.
Whoosh!
However, in the next moment, one of the Winged Tiger’s bone wings flipped 90 degrees like a machine.
Instantly, it slashed down from above, slicing across the rookie!
Pew!
Then, the rookie’s entire body was halved.
However, no blood emerged.
This was because the Twin-Winged Tiger’s wings were covered in a layer of dark blue flames, causing his halved body to rapidly turn black!
“Ah!”
Xu Xue screamed in despair as she watched her white knight collapse beside her.
Whoosh!
However, at this moment, the tiger-like creature suddenly raised its head and turned away.
Could it be that her perfume had taken effect?
A flicker of hope appeared in Xu Xue’s blank mind.
Thud!
However, in the next moment, the tiger-like creature erupted with a powerful aura. The tiger claw which was bigger than Xu Xue’s head landed on her head, instantly making her follow the footsteps of the player who was smashed to death by a rock!
Such a method of death would probably leave a psychological trauma.
This was especially when Xu Xue had actually convinced herself that a soul creature without a sense of smell would be tempted by her perfume.
Of course, the reason why the tiger-like Soul mount erupted was naturally not because it understood Xu Xue’s thoughts.
It was because a black Soul Alpha Wolf that was not much smaller than itself was pouncing at it from the shrine with flames burning in its eyes!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Faced with an opponent that was also a soul, the tiger-like zombie appeared a lot more serious. Its pair of bone wings that were burning with blue flames instantly shielded its body.
A green light emerged from its body and instantly blanked the other areas!
Hum!
The Soul Alpha Wolf collided with the winged tiger-like zombie. Instantly, a cold wind rose up in the hall, and the temperature dropped significantly!
The Soul Alpha Wolf, which had reached the level of a Rank-3 Commander, fell into a disadvantageous position during the collision.
This was because the layer of green light on the tiger-like creature’s surface was like a barrier that prevented it from inching any closer to directly attack the Soul’s true body within.
As for the pair of bone wings that were as sharp as blades, they instantly halved it. The blue flames on them ignited the soul power of the Alpha Wolf, forcing the wolf soul to choose to valiantly cut off its wrists. After it disintegrated, it returned to Ji Ye’s side and used the Totem Wolf Skin to condense and be reborn!
“Be careful, it’s the Netherworld Ghost Flames!”
“When a person is stained with it, even their soul will be injured.”
Ninth Uncle, who was behind, noticed the situation and shouted.
“It should be the corpse of a true Commander-level creature.”
Ji Ye frowned slightly.
Although he had killed the Soul Commander-level hero ahead of time, it did not mean that the enemy didn’t have Commander-level combat strength.
Just like how he was part of the human race, not only could a Commander-level “player” appear amongst the Souls, but they could also use the corpses of the Commander-level creatures killed in the settlement mission to strengthen themselves and have them participate in the battle!
Schwing!
A bronze bolt tore through the air and nailed the tiger-shaped creature’s chest. However, it was blocked by the green light on its surface. It was immediately sent flying by the bone wings burning with dark blue flames.
Without being able to touch the other party’s body, the power of the exorcism talisman naturally wasn’t effective.
“This is troublesome!”
To be honest, if he didn’t know that this was an inanimate object, Ji Ye would really think that this was a zombie-style “mecha” from a sci-fi civilization!
It gave people the feeling that it came completely equipped with the standard energy weapons and energy shields.
Thankfully, with only its wings and bones remaining, the winged tiger was definitely unable to fly. Otherwise, if the Soul Commander had used this “mount” to climb up the cliff, the battle would definitely not have been as easy.
Looks like I have to bleed in the end!
However, he was already mentally prepared for such a situation. He made a decisive decision.
Using the Black Serpent Sword, he cut a wound on his wrist.
Of course, he had to be precise and avoid the arterial blood vessels!
Instantly, a stream of blood was sucked out by the Black Serpent Sword and swallowed by the Soul Alpha Wolf that had condensed beside it.
Hum!
The Soul Alpha Wolf, which was originally black in color, was immediately covered in a layer of blood fog that turned dark-red. It was the Blood Sacrifice that the Alpha Wolf used previously!
However, the Alpha Wolf back then had not obtained the Alpha Wolf’s Mark at all. It could only barely activate it with s Life Sacrifice. And with the Alpha Wolf’s Mark, his blood and the augmentation of his soul power increased the combat strength of the Soul Alpha Wolf to almost the level of Extraordinary Rank-4!
It pounced at the Twin-Winged Tiger below once again. This time, the Soul Alpha Wolf, whose eyes were burning with red flames, relied on its agile advantage to dodge the other party’s pair of wings that burned with Netherworld Ghost Flames. It directly crashed into the green Soul Barrier.
Crack!
As the cold wind and blood fog scattered in all directions, the green barrier could not withstand the blow and shattered. As for the Soul Alpha Wolf, it charged straight in.
The twin-winged, tiger-like “mecha” with the Netherworld Ghost Flames immediately stopped moving and stood rooted on the battlefield.
However, because the Twin-Winged Tiger had smashed open a wall, more Souls outside chose to flood in from this gap.
Instantly, the pressure on Twin Dragon Mount increased greatly, and there were even casualties on a large scale!
Clang, clang, clang…
Suddenly, the sound of a pipa sounded on the battlefield. It was the music from the afternoon—”Surrounded”.
“Everyone, retreat to the back of the shrine!” Ninth Uncle shouted.
The special effect of the Topaz Pipa’s area of effect was to its front. Now, it was only aimed at the direction of the gap, so it did not have much of an impact on humans!
Although the Soul creatures did not have any substantial sense of hearing, the attacks of the Topaz Pipa were actually mental attacks. The sonic waves were only a medium.
As a result, these extremely simple-minded Soul creatures were immediately affected by the pipa music. In the battle, they subconsciously moved away from the gap and walls, moving towards the arena in the middle!
“A single stroke moves the world. The Three Pure Ones at the top respond to the heart and soul of those below. A second strike is the creation of the Ancestral Master. May I invite a mighty god to mobilize the army. A third stroke wards off evil. Which ghost would dare face it?”
“In this heaven and earth, the decree of the ninth command is written by me. All ghosts shall hide!”
At this moment, Ninth Uncle was already using the Maoshan Footwork technique. In his hand was a magic sword made of copper coins and stringed talismans.
Pew!
Ninth Uncle bit the tip of his tongue with his teeth and spat out blood that contained the most Yang energy on the bronze coin sword.
“Quick!”
Then, he formed a hand seal and the bronze coin sword that emitted a red light hit the ground beside the altar.
