Five Kills! The Jungle Monster Best at Last-Hitting

"3!"

Tang Jiu's cold death countdown rang out. His body streaked forward in a blur, and before the horrified eyes of the Wind Eagle Spirit Master, a claw pierced through his chest.

"Young Master! Make your move!"

The Wind Eagle martial spirit clung tightly to Tang Jiu, buying Qian Renxue a sliver of opportunity with its life. Qian Renxue did not hesitate. The sacred sword she had just drawn passed through the Wind Eagle Spirit Master's side and pierced Tang Jiu's body.

Golden light blazed brilliantly. Tang Jiu felt the evil power within him being evaporated by the sword, his strength draining away without stop—not just his strength, but seemingly his life as well!

That was because the Angel's Sacred Sword contained holy power of light, perfectly suited to purifying dark and evil forces.

The power of Tang Jiu's Evil Ring Devouring Heaven Ant, as well as the Heavenly Curse Seal, were both evil, dark-attribute powers, making them especially vulnerable to holy damage.

Pain. Destruction. Tang Jiu felt death closing in.

"Die!"

Tang Jiu roared, casually hurling the Wind Eagle martial spirit at the Azure Carved Demon Statue. Then he reached back and seized Qian Renxue by the throat, shouting at the last Healing Scepter Soul Master, "Don't move, or I'll kill your Young Master!"

The Healing Scepter Soul Master hurriedly waved her hands. "Don't be rash! We can talk this out!"

The Healing Scepter Soul Master had been planning to cast a round of healing on the Wind Eagle Spirit Master, save him, then have the three of them work together to find a way to kill the already severely injured Tang Jiu.

Tang Jiu had long seen through her intentions. Without even pulling out the sword, he took Qian Renxue hostage and stopped the Healing Soul Master from acting rashly.

Without healing support, how could the badly wounded Wind Eagle Spirit Master possibly be a match for a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast?

A scream rang out as the Azure Carved Demon Statue stomped the Wind Eagle Spirit Master to death.

Holy shit! Quadra kill.

The Azure Carved Demon Statue felt as though it was about to reach the pinnacle of beast life. Its pair of deep blue eyes darted between Tang Jiu and the others, seemingly wanting to wipe them all out in one go. But after sensing that the female Healing Spirit Master still appeared to be in good condition, it quietly squatted down again and started picking at its toes.

"Let me go!" Restrained by Tang Jiu, Qian Renxue felt unbearably humiliated and struggled with all her strength.

But Tang Jiu ignored her. He immediately pulled out the Angel's Sacred Sword. With a clang, the sacred sword fell to the ground. Yet Tang Jiu's blood on its blade seemed to be scorched by the sword, hissing as it was quickly evaporated completely. The sacred sword gleamed with golden radiance, leaving no trace of anything behind.

Holy and pure!

"What the hell is this thing?!"

Tang Jiu could not help cursing. That single strike had nearly drained him dry. He fixed his gaze on the Healing Scepter Soul Master and said, "Quick, heal me, or I'll crush your Young Master's throat!"

To prove his resolve, Tang Jiu tightened his grip slightly. Qian Renxue could no longer breathe, her face flushing crimson as she desperately pounded on Tang Jiu.

"Let go! I'll heal you, I'll heal you!"

The female Soul Master's face turned deathly pale. She hurriedly waved her staff, and a moon-white beam shot into Tang Jiu's body. Tang Jiu immediately felt incomparably warm.

"Don't stop! Keep going!" Tang Jiu snorted coldly.

"First Spirit Skill, Light of Healing!"

The female Healing Spirit Master spammed healing on Tang Jiu as though it cost nothing. She had no high-level spirit skills, so she could only use her First Spirit Skill, hoping to stall for time.

But with Qian Renxue held hostage by Tang Jiu, she had no choice but to keep casting healing.

Second by second, Tang Jiu felt his pierced internal organs recover. He then quickly deactivated the Heavenly Curse Seal and the Self Spirit Fusion Skill, Evil Ring Devouring Heaven Ant.

Among those present, the only one who could be considered an expert was the Healing Spirit Master. Even if she was a Soul King of � rank, all her spirit skills were for healing. Wouldn't she still be nothing more than someone he could chase down and beat to death later?

He had already won this team battle!

"Hm?"

Tang Jiu's brow suddenly lifted. This time, using the Evil Ring Devouring Heaven Ant had not lowered his Soul Power—instead, it had even risen by � rank!

Could it be because his body had not exceeded its limit? So there was no need to consume Soul Power to repair his body?

That made sense. The amount he had devoured was not much, and his body did not feel like it was about to burst.

No!

Tang Jiu could clearly feel that his physical attributes had improved. His base strength of 5,500 jin had risen to � jin. Though it was not much, it had indeed broken through his body's limit, because it was a side effect of using the Heavenly Curse Seal.

But why had his Soul Power not decreased?

When another [Light of Healing] fell upon Tang Jiu's head, he understood in an instant.

Healing!

Because a Healing Soul Master was helping him repair his body, after his body broke through its limit, the energy needed for recovery no longer had to draw upon his own Soul Power!

"Roar~~~~"

At that moment, the Azure Carved Demon Statue suddenly let out a sky-shaking roar. It discovered that Tang Jiu's aura had weakened considerably, and the aura of that Healing Spirit Master had also grown much weaker.

It finally felt as if it was about to hold its head high. Azure light burst from its body, its aura surging as it swung its fist toward the Healing Spirit Master.

The female Soul Master was scared out of her wits. She was not a combat-type Soul Master; her spirit skills could only heal people and could not even increase speed or defense. Facing a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast, she could not even run away.

A single punch struck her body, sending her flying like a cannonball. Half the bones in her body shattered.

"Fifth Spirit Skill, Healing Sacred Spring!"

The female Soul Master did not dare delay. She immediately cast healing on herself. A spring resembling a bright moon poured into her body, and her shattered bones rapidly regrew. But it was utterly useless—at that moment, a massive foot descended from the sky!

The female Soul Master stopped struggling in vain. Her eyes locked onto Tang Jiu, filled with anger and hatred, before finally turning into a trace of pleading. She shouted, "Wild brat, take the Young Master and run! Please!"

She was certainly going to die, but if Qian Renxue died as well, the families of all their guards would be slaughtered by the enraged Lord Qian Daoliu.

Boom!~~

The ground trembled as the Azure Carved Demon Statue happily beat its chest with both fists.

"Penta Q! Pentakill!"

Even Tang Jiu's mouth twitched. This was definitely the Spirit Beast best at stealing kills!

But the Azure Carved Demon Statue was clearly not satisfied with such a small achievement. It was already getting carried away, glaring teasingly at Tang Jiu as if to say: Well, brat? Still gonna chase me? Still gonna show off? Didn't know I could turn the tables, did you?

"Run!"

Qian Renxue's face went deathly pale. She had no way to deal with a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast, and she certainly didn't think Tang Jiu, after that battle, could handle such a powerful Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast either!

Tang Jiu released Qian Renxue and crooked a finger at the Azure Carved Demon Statue. "Come here. I'll show you a magic trick—turn you into a ring the moment you hit the ground!"

Naturally, the Azure Carved Demon Statue could not understand Tang Jiu's words, but it could sense that Tang Jiu was challenging its authority. Howling, it charged over, its car-sized fist smashing toward Tang Jiu.

Tang Jiu casually placed the Spirit Ring Spirit over the Azure Carved Demon Statue. The next moment, the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast froze in confusion. This time, six thousand years of its cultivation had been restricted.

The Azure Carved Demon Statue immediately slammed on the brakes, turned around, and fled. Humans are too devious! He's even stronger than before! Just now, Tang Jiu could only restrict five thousand years of my cultivation.

"First Spirit Skill, Evil Ring of Speed!"
