Spirit Pierce

"Limit?"

Tang Jiu sneered. His Evil Ring Devouring Heaven Ant's devouring speed had no limit!

His speed had already surpassed that of the Lightning Leopard Spirit Master, yet instead of attacking him, he charged straight at the Support Type Five-Leaf Clover Spirit Master.

Fast—too fast!

There was only one thought in the Five-Leaf Clover Spirit Master's mind.

Two seconds later, Tang Jiu was already in front of him. He raised his leg and viciously whipped it at his waist. With no other choice, the Five-Leaf Clover Spirit Master cast a defensive skill on himself and raised his arm to block.

With a crack, his arm bone broke.

Only then did he understand how terrifying Tang Jiu's strength was. His entire body flew backward, but before he could hit the ground, Tang Jiu's speed increased again. With a flicker, he appeared behind him, and the spear-like ant legs behind him pierced straight through his body. The Five-Leaf Clover Spirit Master stared in utter disbelief, his pupils dilating as the light faded from his eyes.

� seconds after the team battle began, the level 43 Support Type Tool Soul Sect Master, the Five-Leaf Clover Spirit Master, died!

Flander sucked in a cold breath. Tang Jiu was getting faster as the battle went on. Just now, after attacking the Five-Leaf Clover Spirit Master twice, his speed had surged twice.

At this moment, Tang Jiu had already left the Lightning Leopard Spirit Master far behind in terms of speed!

No martial art could withstand sheer speed!

Tang Jiu perfectly demonstrated that now. He flung aside the dead Five-Leaf Clover Spirit Master and pounced toward the Flame Bird Spirit Master.

"First Spirit Skill, Flame Ray!"

The Flame Bird Spirit Master tried to use flames to slow Tang Jiu's offensive rhythm, but when the fire swept through, it only struck Tang Jiu's afterimage. Tang Jiu was too fast. Not only had he evaded the Flame Ray with his speed, he had even shaken off the pursuing Lightning Leopard Spirit Master.

� seconds into their exchange, Tang Jiu appeared before the Flame Bird Spirit Master again. He bared his teeth in a grin. "This time, no one will heal you!"

His raised hand became a blade as he savagely thrust it toward the Flame Bird Spirit Master's heart.

The Flame Bird Spirit Master went pale with fright. If that strike landed, he would end up just like the Five-Leaf Clover Spirit Master. A vicious glint flashed through his eyes as he activated his strongest spirit skills.

"Third Spirit Skill, Flame Amplification!"

"Fourth Spirit Skill, Flame Tornado!"

Flame Amplification could increase the damage of flames by �%.

The Fourth Spirit Skill was an area-of-effect attack that could create a Flame Tornado five meters in diameter. The blast of flame could stun an opponent briefly and inflict terrifying burning damage.

Tang Jiu sensed a massive fluctuation of Soul Power beneath his feet as a terrifying heat wave rushed toward him. He immediately beat his transparent wings, his body streaking through the air as a black shadow. He dodged at high speed, narrowly escaping the spirit skill.

A trace of regret flashed through the Flame Bird Spirit Master's eyes, but the next instant, it turned into terror. Tang Jiu had not dodged backward; he had flown diagonally, circling around from the left before charging at him again with incredible speed.

This time, the Flame Bird Spirit Master was completely despairing. He had just used his First, Third, and Fourth Spirit Skills, which had drained him greatly. He would find it difficult to use his Fourth Spirit Skill again anytime soon.

Other than the Fourth Spirit Skill, his remaining skills could hardly stop Tang Jiu's advance. He could only watch helplessly as Tang Jiu's fist smashed into his chest. One second after his body was knocked into the air, a sharp ant leg precisely pierced in through his back.

� seconds into their exchange, the level 42 Assault Type Battle Soul Sect Master, the Flame Bird Spirit Master, died!

Tang Jiu had also plundered �% of the Flame Bird's speed. By now, he had plundered 10% of the Lightning Leopard's speed, �% of the Flame Bird's speed, and �% of the Five Leaf Clover's speed.

His speed now far exceeded that of the Lightning Leopard Spirit Master, so fast that the latter could no longer keep up.

"How is this possible?! Why hasn't he exploded and died yet?" The Lightning Leopard Spirit Master was already thinking of retreating. In barely twenty seconds, half of their group had died. He had completely lost confidence in victory.

"Don't be afraid! Hold him off!" the Amethyst Spirit Master shouted in a low voice.

"Aren't you going to make a move?" Seeing Tang Jiu pounce toward him, the Lightning Leopard Spirit Master demanded sharply, "Are you trying to keep the reward all to yourself?"

The Amethyst Spirit Master's expression did not change. He merely said coldly, "It's not time yet!"

The main reason he had not acted was that he only had one spirit skill!

For his special gemstone-type martial spirit, regardless of how many spirit rings he possessed, he would only ever have one spirit skill. Naturally, he had to choose the best moment to strike!

When he struck, it would be a guaranteed kill!

He did not believe anyone could devour speed endlessly. Devouring speed meant devouring energy as well. Once that energy became too powerful for the body to endure, it would certainly explode!

Tang Jiu had also chosen not to attack the Amethyst Spirit Master because this type of Spirit Master had overly bizarre spirit skills. He would deal with him once he was the only one left.

"Fourth Spirit Skill, Ghost Tiger Clone!"

The Lightning Leopard Spirit Master did not dare to confront Tang Jiu head-on. His Fourth Spirit Skill was a cloning ability obtained from the Ghost Tiger, allowing him to split into three identical energy clones that could attack the enemy simultaneously.

But now, he used the skill only to stall for time while his true body retreated swiftly.

With a tearing sound, Tang Jiu's ant leg ripped one clone apart. This time, he failed to plunder the opponent's speed. The shredded clone dissipated into Original Spirit Power, and Tang Jiu's heart stirred. It seemed he had to attack the true body to plunder speed.

Two more strikes shattered the remaining two clones. Tang Jiu's First Spirit Skill, Speed Plunder, had less than � seconds remaining.

Tang Jiu no longer held back. He attacked with all his strength.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After more than a dozen consecutive attacks, Tang Jiu continuously stripped away his opponent's speed. The sight before him left Flander so shocked that his jaw nearly hit the ground.

The Lightning Leopard Spirit Master had been stripped of �% of his speed. Now, whenever he moved, it was as though he were in slow motion. It was as if his body had been filled with lead, though his expression clearly showed that he was already exerting all his strength.

Too terrifying!

"It's over!"

Having finished testing, Tang Jiu no longer held back. His ant leg shot out and viciously pierced the Lightning Leopard Spirit Master's heart.

� seconds into their exchange, the level 41 Agile Attack Type Battle Soul Sect Master, the Lightning Leopard Spirit Master, died!

Just as Tang Jiu was about to fling the Lightning Leopard Spirit Master off his ant leg, another surge of evil energy entered his body. This time, Tang Jiu's aura suddenly became chaotic. He felt the evil energy wildly battering every meridian in his body, and his body was already nearing its limit.

This is bad. My body has reached its limit! Tang Jiu inwardly cried out. At that moment, he saw the Amethyst Spirit Master's sinister smile.

"Spirit Pierce!"

All four spirit rings on the Amethyst Spirit Master's body lit up at once. Though his martial spirit had only one spirit skill, every loss came with a gain. His four identical spirit skills could be unleashed simultaneously, stacking their power.

A strange red light flashed in the Amethyst Spirit Master's eyes before shooting straight into Tang Jiu's eyes.

Tang Jiu immediately felt as if his head were exploding. He had never cultivated in the spiritual realm, and this kind of spiritual attack was far too bizarre. He felt as though a blade were cutting apart his soul, and his vision instantly went black!

This was his spirit skill. It did not create illusions, but directly slaughtered the soul. That was why he was an Assault Type Tool Soul Sect Master, not a Control Type Tool Soul Sect Master!

Flender was also greatly alarmed. He had not expected this sudden turn of events. Right now, he truly wanted to slap himself twice. If Tang Jiu died, he would be in serious trouble!

"Haha! My spiritual attack can easily kill people at the Soul Ancestor level. Without a Head Spirit Bone for protection, death is inevitable!"

The Amethyst Spirit Master laughed heartily. It was as if he could already see himself becoming a White-Robed Archbishop of the Spirit Hall Sacred Hall, with supreme power, beautiful women, and wealth all beckoning to him.

Yet he failed to notice that the three blood-red comma-like marks on the Evil Ring Devouring Heaven Ant's forehead had strangely lit up, as though greedily absorbing something!

And in the instant Tang Jiu's pupils lost focus, they became incomparably excited!
