Looking at the scales covering Tang Wulin's right hand and the golden blade extending from it, Shi Yu could basically confirm the other party's identity.
His gaze was quickly drawn to the soul beast that Tang Wulin and the others were facing—a dark golden bear.
"It's most likely the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear," Shi Yu thought to himself. This bear was much taller and stronger than Tang Wulin, like the difference between an adult and a seven or eight-year-old child.
Its dark gold fur wasn't soft; instead, it had a metallic feel, making it look like it was wearing dark gold armor.
Each of its forepaws has five long, sharp blades that gleam with a cold, chilling light; even from a distance, one can sense their imposing presence.
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was performing very strongly. It was able to take the initiative against Tang Wulin, Gu Yue, and the other two Soul Masters, and it looked like it was going to take them all down.
"This must be what they call cause and effect. Twenty thousand years ago, Tang San tried to steal the external soul bone of the Human-Faced Demon Spider from me. If I hadn't been lucky, I would have been dead."
"In the era of the Dragon King Legend, I encountered his son who wanted to obtain the Soul Bone."
"If I don't take this away, how can I face you for what you did to me back then?" Shi Yu thought to himself.
Having already made his plan, he would simply remain a passive observer, waiting for them to kill the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.
Anyway, this isn't about absorbing a spirit ring; it doesn't mean that whoever kills the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear has the spirit bone exclusively for them.
He wouldn't feel any guilt about robbing Tang Wulin. His father almost killed him; wouldn't it be foolish to talk to him about morality and righteousness?
Shi Yu observed quietly, trying to minimize his presence, and was also prepared to move over and snatch the soul bone at any time.
The battle over there had reached a fever pitch, with the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear exerting immense pressure, forcing Tang Wulin to take a risk.
His attempt was quite successful; he attacked the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's weak point and delivered a fatal blow with the powerful force of his right golden dragon claw.
"Huff huff huff..." Tang Wulin slumped to the ground, panting heavily, exhausted but also feeling relieved after surviving a disaster.
Gu Yue, Xu Xiaoyan, and Xie Xie were all exhausted. This battle was won with great difficulty and luck.
"What's that?" Xu Xiaoyan exclaimed first, pointing to the spot where the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had died.
Everyone else just watched, thinking that after the soul beasts died, they simply turned into energy and entered the body of the killer. What else could it be?
They didn't pay attention at first, but now that they look closely, they realize something is wrong.
The dead Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear did not transform into pure energy and enter Tang Wulin's body.
Instead, a sharp claw was left behind, hovering for a moment before falling to the ground.
Tang Wulin was closest to the claws, so he got up to pick them up.
It was so close that it could be picked up by bending down, when suddenly a hand made a gathering motion and picked up the sharp claws from the ground ahead of time.
Tang Wulin was startled and quickly took a few steps back, fearing a sudden attack.
Gu Yue, Xu Xiaoyan, and Xie Xie were all startled. How did this person suddenly appear?
"Who are you? Why are you stealing our things?" Xu Xiaoyan said angrily.
Gu Yue frowned. The other party's sudden appearance was due to the use of spatial techniques, yet she hadn't been able to sense it beforehand. This spatial ability was far too powerful.
Thinking this, her eyes grew more serious, but even more hostile; this person was clearly here to steal her things.
A series of elemental attacks appeared, while spatial techniques were used to try to seal off the space and prevent the person from easily leaving using spatial abilities.
The group worked together seamlessly and quickly surrounded Shi Yu, who had just appeared, glaring at him with hostility.
"This is something from the Spirit Pagoda, it doesn't belong to you," Shi Yu said with a light laugh, tossing the soul bone around.
Naturally, I was delighted; I had obtained the soul bone so easily.
"This is the spoils we obtained from killing the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Soul Beast. If it doesn't belong to us, why would it belong to you?" Tang Wulin said in a deep voice.
"Put your things down quickly, or we might let you leave alive," Gu Yue warned.
Shi Yu glanced at Gu Yue, then looked at Tang Wulin: "This thing may not necessarily belong to me, but now that it's in my hands, I naturally can't easily give it up to you."
"If you want to take it back, then let's see who has the strength to back it up." With that, he struck first, delivering a heavy palm strike to Tang Wulin.
Tang Wulin was already on guard. When he saw the opponent strike out with a palm from a distance, he instinctively used his right Golden Dragon Claw to block in front of him. This was the power he could rely on the most at the moment.
The spatial energy condensed into a giant hand and slammed into Tang Wulin, sending him flying even though he was prepared. The impact was astonishing.
"Wu Lin" Gu Yue panicked, her eyes filled with killing intent as she looked at Shi Yu, and several elemental attacks came one after another, the offensive was very fierce.
Xu Xiaoyan once again used her control skills, sending ice chains to wrap around and bind Shi Yu.
Xie Xie moved with incredible speed, wielding the Light Dragon Blade and transforming into an assassin to deliver a fatal blow to Shi Yu.
Faced with numerous attacks, Shi Yu simply vanished from his spot, leaving them without a target.
"How is this possible?" Gu Yue was astonished. She had already tried her best to influence the opponent's spatial movement before attacking, so why didn't it work?
Moreover, the opponent's teleportation came without any warning, which is not the effect of a soul skill, but rather like the basic ability of his martial soul.
One of the basic abilities of having a martial soul is actually teleportation?
Gu Yue was shocked; this was something even her martial soul ability didn't possess.
She is capable of teleportation, but she cannot teleport casually; it requires preparation. This is a completely different concept from the ability the other party is currently demonstrating.
Xu Xiaoyan's ice chains missed their target and became entangled in the air.
Xie Xie stopped and looked left and right, trying to find Shi Yu's figure.
Tang Wulin sensed danger as soon as he stood up and attacked forward purely on instinct.
His right golden dragon claw, carrying the power of destruction, was about to annihilate anyone who might appear in front of him.
"That was a lie," Shi Yu's voice rang out behind Tang Wulin.
Tang Wulin's pupils contracted. All he could see in front of him was undulating energy, which seemed to be a feint of attack created by the opponent.
Tang Wulin was about to push off with his legs and rush forward when he felt a sharp pain in his back, and it wasn't just once.
Shi Yu, who appeared behind Tang Wulin, had eight spider legs that had appeared on his back at some point. As he spoke, the eight spider legs stabbed fiercely towards Tang Wulin's back, giving him no time to react or dodge.
Tang Wulin's body was extraordinary, possessing a powerful physique, but even he couldn't withstand the sharp attack of the Eight Spider Spears. All eight spider legs pierced his body to varying depths.
The shallowest was only half a finger's length, while the longest pierced half of his body.
"Ahhh!" Tang Wulin screamed in agony. The pain in the video was quite realistic; being injured does cause pain.
Although the pain has been greatly reduced, the piercing pain is still somewhat unbearable.
Gu Yue, Xie Xie, and Xu Xiaoyan, all visibly shocked, paled.
The three of them were somewhat slow to realize what was happening, mainly because Shi Yu was elusive and didn't appear instantly after teleporting, which made their reactions seem a bit sluggish.
