Chapter 45 Head-on Hunt.
Although Zhang Lexuan was also quite surprised, as the senior sister, she wouldn't be distracted at a time like this.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Moonfall!"
Her fifth soul ring shone brightly, and a crescent moon rose into the sky, suddenly turning golden. In an instant, that crescent moon split into another crescent moon of the same size, which descended from the sky.
The golden waxing moon now seemed like the Grim Reaper's scythe; wherever the golden moon passed, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's massive body was brutally slashed with deep, bone-revealing wounds.
"Roar~!" The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger roared, the red light in its eyes turning even more blood-red. Its wings suddenly spread out, flapping forcefully, and instantly, countless black lights surged out, transforming into dozens of sharp blades over a foot in size that soared into the air and slashed towards Zhang Lexuan.
Zhang Lexuan's eyes gleamed with silver light, and her first, third, and second spirit rings simultaneously lit up. With the continuous use of her second spirit skill, Moon Flash, the full moon in the sky seemed to unleash beams of light like a spirit guide device, swiftly crushing the approaching black wind blades.
However, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was nowhere to be seen.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger possessed a special dash skill that could be used on the ground or in the air, its speed comparable to teleportation. However, unlike teleportation, this dash skill required a straight-line trajectory to reach its target. If it encountered an obstacle, it would collide with it.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger used this skill to arrive above Zhang Lexuan, its Evil God Hook slashing down, preparing to deliver a fatal blow.
"Fourth Spirit Skill, Golden Crow True Fire Ring!"
With a delicate shout from Wu Ming, who was flanking the attack, she leaned forward, her right hand pointing to the sky, and her fourth spirit ring instantly shone brightly.
A ruby-red orb, roughly the size of a longan, shot into the sky.
Initially small, it rapidly expanded, growing to the size of a washbasin by the time it reached about thirty meters above the ground. Then, like a shooting star, it hurtled towards the massive body of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
"First Soul Skill, Soul Pressure!"
Wu Xuan's expression was solemn. He spun the blade of his Soul-Breaking Spear, his spiritual power surging forth, locking onto the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. Chu Qingtian, closest to Wu Xuan, also experienced a momentary blackout under the impact of this direct spiritual force.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger above Zhang Lexuan, under the combined control of Wu Xuan's Soul Pressure and Wu Ming's Golden Crow True Fire Ring, lost its chance to strike first.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, its head still spinning, reacted swiftly. Seeing the fire ring approaching, it immediately sensed danger and instinctively released its defensive skills.
"Evil God's Protection."
The long tail lashed down, and the Evil God's Hook turned a translucent gray. The hook, originally intended for attack, instantly unleashed a powerful gray aura.
In the blink of an eye, the gray aura transformed into a protective shield, completely enveloping its body.
How could Zhang Lexuan let such an opportunity slip by? Her sixth spirit ring suddenly lit up, the black ring instantly rising into the air and merging into the full moon.
"Sixth Spirit Skill, Undying Moonlight!"
The full moon changed. The originally silvery-white round moon suddenly dimmed, then turned completely black, with only a silver halo remaining on the outermost layer.
Then, the silver halo descended from the sky, instantly enveloping the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's body.
A flash of black light, and the next moment, a terrifying explosion engulfed the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's body.
Amidst the terrifying explosion, the protective shield also vanished into thin gray mist with a bang.
"Roar—!" The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger finally realized the immense crisis. It finally understood that the strength of these humans seemed to exceed its capabilities, and it was time to fight to the death.
At this moment, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger unleashed its formidable power. The Evil God Hook behind it suddenly swung, and distorted ripples rapidly circled around it. The gray aura emanating from its body transformed into gray lightning, instantly blooming and rapidly enveloping Zhang Lexuan.
This move was the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's most trump card—Dark Demon Evil Lightning!
Zhang Lexuan nodded slightly. Her eight soul rings flashed one by one, and a faint silver mist rose from beneath her feet, concealing her body. Under the reflection of that silver mist, she possessed an even more ethereal beauty.
Wu Xuan was startled. Zhang Lexuan hadn't used any soul skills at this moment, so what was this silver mist she was releasing?
Zhang Lexuan's soul power and aura were increasing at an astonishing rate under the influence of the silver mist, as if she were gathering strength.
The crescent moon above her head was gradually growing larger, moving towards a full moon. Zhang Lexuan's beautiful eyes were also shining with silver light.
Seeing Wu Xuan's astonishment, Chu Qingtian explained, "What Senior Sister is using is a secret technique from the Inner Academy that instantly ignites one's own power. The effect is similar to a berserk soul skill, but without the madness of berserk. If soul power is water, then she is making that water boil."
Wu Xuan's heart stirred slightly. Shrek Academy truly lived up to its ten-thousand-year foundation; such a secret technique was a trump card for turning the tide of battle.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom—like rolling thunder, violent roars echoed deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, and terrifying explosions destroyed a large amount of surrounding vegetation.
Under this terrifying confrontation, Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan's face instantly paled considerably.
Meanwhile, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger lay in a pitiful state, spitting out mouthfuls of gray liquid. Its blood-red eyes seemed to have dimmed, and it lay prostrate in the distance, panting heavily. With each breath, gray liquid flowed from its seven orifices. It had clearly been severely injured.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, its eyes bloodshot, finally showed a hint of fear on its ferocious face.
"Roar~!" The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger let out a mournful roar, and the gray aura around it slowly turned black, carrying it away like a dark cloud.
The mighty Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was now trying to escape.
"Senior Sister! Don't let him get away!" Wu Xuan's eyes were bloodshot, and his grief and anger distorted his handsome face.
Seeing Wu Xuan's grief-stricken expression, Zhang Lexuan was startled. She was about to intercept him, but the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, aided by the dark clouds, was running too fast. In an instant, it had covered a hundred meters. Just as everyone was about to give chase, a disheveled old man appeared unsteadily in front of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
A dense yellow light quickly enveloped the area, and a large, earthen-yellow hand suddenly shot out, directly striking the fleeing Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, leaving it near death and unconscious.
The disheveled old man was none other than Elder Xuan, who had been protecting them all along.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's fourth soul ring definitely brought a soul skill related to wind, and it was definitely beyond the limit.
