Soul Master Manual

Chapter 174 This Man Is A Little Scary

"what is this."

A thick black mist suddenly rose around, and a large shadow enveloped the "Xinghuo" people.

The sudden change left everyone at a loss.

How did it come out?
Obviously they didn't see any changes.

even.

Everyone in "Xinghuo" felt that the poisonous fog on the opposite side of the ring was about to dissipate, and it was time for them to launch an attack.

result.

Just when they were gearing up to deal with this group of "trapped beasts".

Unexpected things happened.

"careful!"

Ali and Ashin's reaction speed is relatively fast.

It's just that their voices just sounded.

I saw Xiao Huan bathed in black shadows, with sharp claws protruding from under the flesh pad, and the whole spirit beast suddenly disappeared in the next moment, and wiped across the center of the ceremony in an instant at a speed that the naked eye could not catch.

puff! !

People from the nearby "Xinghuo" could see almost only a faint light, which drew an arc in the air in an instant, and appeared behind a second-level imperial spirit master.

The person next to him first showed a look of astonishment, and then a trace of fear and disbelief appeared in the depths of his eyes.

The man who was attacked opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he could only spit out a mouthful of blood.

He staggered two steps forward, unable to support himself and fell to the ground.

It can be clearly seen that there is a deep bone marrow wound on the back of his neck, which cut off the spine, and even the flat fractured bone can be clearly seen.

"The third one." Li Changan's voice came from outside the shadows without any emotion.

Is this really the fighting power one should have after being exhausted?

What speed is that? !
Both Ali and Ashin were shocked and surprised by this.

Almost only when the black mist rose, one of them fell directly under the fierce attack.

It's hard to imagine, if the initial target of the attack chooses them, even if they are protected by their own spirit beasts, can they survive?

And just when Ashin was shocked, Xiao Huan looked at him.

The playful meaning in this gaze made the hairs all over his body stand up for a moment, as if he was being watched by some terrifying existence, and made him, who had experienced countless life-and-death struggles, feel the crisis of death!

Danger!

During the ceremony, the three kinds of poisons diffused greatly affected their bodies, interfered with their ability to respond, and restricted their actions.

Coupled with the sudden death and the unreal shadows of the black mist around them, they felt like they were in the abyss.

Ashin almost raised his current vigilance to the extreme, even though the dizziness and paralysis kept disturbing him, he gritted his teeth tightly.

"Stubborn stone beast, pay attention."

As soon as the words were spoken, Ashin's pupils shrank suddenly.

Xiao Huan disappeared from his sight again.

The dark color is like lightning and streamer.

when it reappears.

Already in front of the stubborn stone beast, the pitch-black claws came head-on.

front? !
Ashin, who was on high alert, never expected that Xiao Huan would dare to choose the front.

There was excitement in my heart.

if only.

Can resist it, slow down its speed, be restricted or controlled to a certain extent, Ashin believes that Ali and the other two will definitely be able to catch it!

Even if Ali and the others didn't react in time, Ashin had already commanded his other spirit beast to wait for the opportunity.

Even if, everyone and the spirit beasts were affected by unknown toxins.

But no matter how fast it is and no matter how powerful it is, there is only one spirit beast after all.

And obviously, this inexplicably rising black mist was prepared for one of its spirit beasts.

But what Ashin didn't expect was that a large number of black tentacles suddenly rose under the feet of him and the stubborn stone beast, touching him and the stubborn stone beast.

next moment.

One person and one spirit beast suddenly stiffened.

In Ashin's frantically constricted pupils, the look of horror couldn't be restrained.

how
Swish-! !

Ashin saw that he was getting farther and farther away from his body and the stubborn stone beast.

how come?
He couldn't help but froze for a moment.

Finally, when he made contact with the ground, he finally reacted.

It turned out that his head fell off
"Fourth." It was still Li Changan's words.

He was like a simple counting machine, but this number deeply hit everyone's heart.

"Iron pincer centipede, giant forceps!"

Behind Xiao Huan, there was a piercing roar.

call--

The strong wind came after itself.

Feeling threatened, Xiao Huan tried to dodge.

But it seemed that the iron-clawed centipede was summoned from its back, so it was not affected much by the triple poison. It waved its powerful pincers, caught the gap between its attacks, and swung it out without hesitation.

boom! ! !
The huge pincers slammed on Xiao Huan's body with all their strength.

Even.

It tries to dodge.

But after all, it still couldn't be completely avoided.

thump—

It was hit hard on the ground, and after rolling a few times, it barely stopped.

"What are you doing in a daze?!" Ali's eyes were about to burst, and he roared.

Ashin died right in front of him. If he didn't resist at this time, would he be slaughtered?

He finally fully recovered from the initial mutation.

And seems to have found a solution.

The remaining two second-tier imperial spirit masters also recovered from their horror under his angry reprimand.

Commanding their respective spirit beasts to attack Xiao Huan who was smashed to the ground.

just.

"Meow!!"

Hearing Xiao Huan gritted his teeth and drank in a low voice, a stream of black light flashed away from his body.

Ink marks!

The injury at the part hit by the giant pincers, like ink, quickly transferred to the end of the tail.

In turn the shadow fell over it again.

Dodging the two spirit beasts that came under siege in a flash, they escaped into the shadows again.

"So fast."

Outside the scope of the ceremony, although the three of Wu Liang couldn't fully see the situation inside, they could still see some vague shadows.

In their line of sight, how long did it take for the whole process from when the ceremony was triggered to when the two figures fell to the ground, and when Xiao Huan was attacked?
How many seconds?

With such a strong strength, it still needs to be so troublesome?
Wouldn't it be better to kill them early?

As everyone knows, the reason why Xiao Huan can display such lethality has something to do with all the arrangements made by Li Changan.

How could he dare to challenge two third-tier warriors if there were no shadow areas similar to the abilities of "field" and "field" arranged by rituals and "motivating ink", as well as the influence of the three poisons that had been diffused long ago? The spiritual master plus five second-level imperial spiritual masters.

The sheer number of spirit beasts has achieved absolute crushing.

What's more, Li Chang'an has just stepped into the stage of the third-order imperial spirit master, Xiao Huan barely reached the first-order restricted level, and Kuidou is still in the negative-level stage.

Fortunately, among the two third-tier imperial spirit masters, Ashin was replaced by Xiao Huan at the cost of one attack.

There is still one Tier [-] Spirit Master and two Tier [-] Spirit Masters left.

but.

Now they have all reacted.

Back to back with each other, wary of the shadows around.

It would be somewhat unrealistic to imagine killing two people instantly like just now.

But it doesn't matter.

Time, on Li Changan's side.

The poison buried in the ground will only make their condition worse and worse.

This is not.

One of the second-level spiritual masters trembled and shook slightly, and his consciousness began to blur and diverge uncontrollably.

"Little fantasy!"

Through the spiritual balance, Li Changan can see the pictures and scenes it sees at this moment.

Know that this is an opportunity not to be missed.

And what Xiao Huan was waiting for was this opportunity.

whoosh-

A burst of shallow ripples slowly spread in the dense fog.

"careful!"

Ali drank in a low voice.

His two spirit beasts, a restricted-level fourth-level Lingai crab and a restricted-level third-level iron-clawed centipede, immediately protected him by his side.

but.

puff-

Even though they were cautious enough, the negative-level spirit beasts that were continuously affected by the triple poison seemed defenseless in front of Xiao Huan.

"what--!!"

The sudden break of the contract caused one of the last two Tier [-] imperial spirit masters to fall to the ground with his head in his arms.

"the fifth."

It was Li Changan's voice again.

But this time it was overheard, the last remaining two fell into an ice cellar.

It seemed that every time he opened his mouth, someone would lose his life.

And Xiao Huan, who had finished the attack, didn't like to fight, and before the wood thorns of the Lingai Crab scattered, Shadow Dun disappeared into the shadows again.

"field."

Ali still has some vision.

I wasn't very sure before, but when I saw the Moying three-tailed civet combined with this thick shadow again, I was a little surprised to find that this is not the "field" that fifth-level imperial spirit masters like to use most?

Although it is only an approximation, it also exerts the effect of the domain.

But even if he saw through the ceremony, it would be useless.

It can only make his heart sink to the bottom.

And the last remaining second-rank imperial spirit master looked at his companion who fell to the ground trembling and pulled out, his legs were also swaying.

Fudong is waiting for the poison to slowly erode until he can't even resist the ability to die. Modong is about to be attacked by the black cat's treacherous and unpredictable.

"I don't want to die! I don't want to die!!"

In the end, he didn't know whether it was because the fear in his heart could not be suppressed completely, or because the shadows surrounding him aroused the fear in his heart.

Unable to bear the pressure, he desperately ran in one direction.

As long as he ran out of this shadow, out of the area covered by the poison, maybe he might still be able to survive!
"idiot!"

Seeing this scene, Ali couldn't help scolding angrily.

But what he didn't expect was that the man ran all the way and was about to rush to the edge of the ceremony, but he was not attacked.

Could it be that.
"include!!"

A dull sound came from outside the shadow range.

Followed by.

A sharp spear pierced from the outside, piercing the man's chest mercilessly.

"sixth."

boom--

The sound of it hitting the ground was like a hammer hitting Ali's heart heavily.

Li Changan's words made him feel numb in his hands and feet, and he was a little disobedient.

At last.

He was left alone, with two spirit beasts.

"Well!"

A Li clutched his chest suddenly, a dark red blood trickled down the corner of his mouth slowly.

He knew it was poison.

If he stayed any longer, even if he didn't fight, he would die.

A bite.

"Lingai crab! Iron pincer centipede!"

Under the protection of two restricted-level spirit beasts, Ali walked out of the shadows unhurriedly.

Swah——

The dark light flickered again.

But this time, Ali and his two spirit beasts didn't intend to fight back at all.

The target was extremely simple, and they were tightly guarded on both sides of Ali to ensure his safety.

Even if he would suffer Xiao Huan's ruthless attack for this, A Li was betting that the bet that Xiao Huan would not be enough to instantly kill his two defensive spirit beasts.

Unfortunately.

If it was Xiao Huan from before, maybe there is really nothing to do with the two turtle-like spirit beasts.

but now.
It has just transformed into the restricted level, and has realized that the "Phantom Pupil" has a certain chance of seeing through the opponent's weakness, plus the information about the weakness of the Lin Gai turtle given by Li Changan
at last.

Before A Li rushed out of the shadows, Xiao Huan, whose eyes were shining with azure, made another surprise attack. Its claws precisely locked the soft underbelly at the junction of the forest turtle's limbs and carapace, and pierced through the claws without hesitation. And enter.

Moo! ! !
Severe pain, the spiritual core was touched, and the Lingai turtle roared.

Subconsciously kicking out with both feet, he threw heavily on Xiao Huan's body and sent him flying.

But under this blow, he completely lost the ability to resist.

He fell to the ground, and his body "cracked" into powder.

"Well!!"

Ali was dripping with cold sweat instantly, and the breaking of the contract was not something he could easily bear.

Fortunately.

As a Tier [-] Spirit Master, he can still persist.

And he and the iron-clawed centipede finally broke out of the shadows and saw the bright sunshine again.

But the one who greeted them was indeed a burly Kui Dou in knight armor.

In its hand, a gleaming emerald green energy ball is gathering momentum.

Lush Bomb!

boom! ! !
It exploded suddenly.

The iron-clawed centipede can still suffer, but A Li can't face the impact of the A-level proficiency "luxuriant bomb".

"the seventh."

Li Changan spoke in a calm tone, the gleam in his eyes gradually dimmed.

hum-

At the same time, the large shadow condensed by the huge ceremony also dissipated invisible.

goo-dong-

I don't know who swallowed the saliva, it seemed extremely abrupt in the quiet environment at the moment.

Li Changan turned his head.

I saw Wu Liang and the three of them staring at the corpse lying in the center of the ceremony with horror on their faces.

There are human beings, and even spirit beasts.

"That's it?"

seven people.

Two third-tier spirit masters and five second-tier spirit masters.

just this?
They looked at Li Changan with a bit of awe, even fear.

If it is said that they listened to Li Changan before, it was because of Yin Lin's orders.

So now they are truly in awe from the heart.

With such strength, if you don't listen to him, what should you do?
"What are you doing in a daze, clean up the battlefield, and leave quickly." Li Changan said.

Another wave, he can't take it.

Things, materials, etc. have almost been consumed.

"oh oh."

Wu Liang and the others immediately reacted, and hurried to clean the battlefield, collecting spirit cores and spoils.

Tan Mo didn't need to think about it, they even wanted to give him two more spiritual cores.

Li Chang'an ordered Kuidou and Xiao Huan to get rid of some traces of the scene, especially the traces of the ceremony.

soon.

A group of six went on the road again.

This time, they moved a little faster.

"Brother Changqing, east and west."

Wu Liang looked at Li Chang'an who was holding a few empty bottles with his brows furrowed, and quietly handed over the collected materials such as the spiritual core.

They are bandits, and they are more skilled than Li Changan in how to deal with spirit beasts and collect spoils.

"Thank you." After taking the things, Li Chang'an thanked him, and facing Wu Liang's sneer, he suddenly said, "Wu Liang."

"Well, uh, I'm here."

"You testify to me, I will ask you to reimburse me when I go back." Li Changan shook the empty bottle in his hand.

The three bottles of poison were completely empty, and even the ink bottle of "Ink That Makes You Move" was empty.

The "loss" is heavy.

"what?"

Wu Liang was stunned.

Didn't the master already promise to pay?
Still want to reimburse something?

"In order to protect you, I have completely used up these stocks. If there is another wave of previous pursuits, I will have no choice." Li Changan shrugged.

In fact, it's okay, the spiritual cores and materials collected are enough to make up for these losses.

It was the poison left to him by the ancient mother-in-law. It was her signature poison, and it was probably not available outside.

Wu Liang shrank his neck.

"these are"

"Poison."

"Eh? What about the one that was left beside us earlier?"

"It's also a poison. But it's incomparable to these. It's just a look to make those people cast a trap."

Finally, there was no danger of pursuit, and Li Changan also had time to explain the reasons for his series of actions and arrangements.

"Brother Changqing, what you mean is that the reason why you throw poison around us is just to stop them from moving forward, and you quietly sent the real poison to their surroundings, so as to delay time and let them suffer more. The effects of the poison?"

Wu Liang seemed to have come to his senses.

"good."

Li Changan nodded, and put the glass bottle into his pocket.

"What about the trap?" Wu Liang asked again.

"The same effect. The trap was originally just to attract their attention, so that they would not find the traces of the ceremony so easily."

Feeling that the trap that the three of them have arranged so carefully is just a decoration?
"The traces of the battle before the ceremony, shouldn't it be the same?"

"The traces of the battle are also to cover up the ceremony. Of course, they also want to make them think that we have just experienced a hard battle and are already at the end of their strength."

The people around all pricked up their ears, listening to Li Changan's explanation.

This time, without waiting for Wu Liang to ask, Li Changan continued:

"Wu Liang. If you are a chaser, and you see the target you want to kill in front of you, and they have just experienced a fierce battle, they can't escape, but they will never give up struggling and will fight to the death. What would you do? Do?"

Without even thinking about it, Wu Liang subconsciously continued:
"Just like chasing spirit beasts, consume them slowly. Trapped beasts are most likely to hurt the hunter himself."

But as he spoke, his voice gradually became softer.

He somewhat understood what Li Changan did.

But the heart is indeed surging.

The most terrifying enemy is not one that is so powerful that it cannot be dealt with, but one that can clearly calculate the hearts of prey and hunters.

Playing with people's hearts is the most terrifying thing.

No wonder Li Changan asked them to follow his instructions even with their facial expressions.

This is to count the "Xinghuo" group of people as dead.

At this moment, Li Changan gave him the feeling that they were the top three.

The difference is that the third master is not good at fighting but good at strategy, while Li Changan is good at strategy and also knows fighting.

That black cat with three tails was much, much stronger than ordinary restricted-level first-order spirit beasts.

And the Unyielding Tree Demon, which only has a negative level, is much stronger than ordinary negative level spirit beasts.

"But what if they don't follow common sense and attack directly?" Wu Liang asked in a low voice.

Li Changan glanced at him sideways, smiled lightly and said:
"No. The more self-righteous people are, the more they think they are smart. Besides, even if they don't want to do what I want to do with the poison I throw at our feet, they have to do it. In addition, we are backed by people who are easy to defend and difficult to defend. If we attack the slope, they will be more afraid of us desperately replacing them, or a few spirit beasts."

He counted both normal and abnormal situations.

Unless, among the people chasing this time, someone has a spirit beast with dangerous strength.

Otherwise, even if it is the seventh or eighth or even eighth or ninth level of the restricted level, it will have to be hated.

At best, he might have paid more.

But don't underestimate the effect of the poison left by Grandma Gu, it also has a great effect on restricted spirit beasts.

For dangerous spirit beasts, the effect is nothing.

"Oh"

Wu Liang shrank his neck again, exchanged glances with the people around him, and slowly distanced himself from Li Changan.

This person said it a little scary.

Li Changan shook his head with a low smile.

Looking at Xiao Huan beside him who was frowning and licking his tail, he rubbed its head.

Actually, he didn't say anything.

That is, if the chasing person really has an enemy that he cannot handle or deal with.

He can also use the ritual to delay a little time, and he can guarantee the absolute safety of himself and Xiao Huan.

Waiting for work with ease and setting traps, this is their greatest advantage.

of course.

There is no need to explain these preparations to Wu Liang and the others.

In short.

"You are the masters, you should reimburse me." He said firmly.

That is to say, he had prepared enough things for entering the dense forest this time, otherwise he really couldn't cope with this situation.

"Uh-huh."

To this, Wu Liang and the others could only nod in agreement.

For people like Li Chang'an, it's better not to be an enemy.

otherwise.

If he was thinking about it, he might set up a series of open and secret traps around their village.

At that time, I am afraid they will not even know how they died.

The only thing to be thankful for.

Probably because they have a good relationship now.
