Iron Tail Scorpion Makes a Contribution

The Green Wind Tiger reacted quickly, pushing off with its legs to dodge most of the Crimson Fireballs, though it was still struck by a few, and rolling flames soon engulfed it.

Xu Lei activated a Great Strength Talisman, which transformed into a streak of yellow light that sank into the ground; two large yellow hands burst from the earth and lightning-fast grabbed the Green Wind Tiger's hind legs.

Four yellow-glowing flying knives shot over, striking the Green Wind Tiger one after another. The beast let out a shrill roar as its body lit up with a cyan glow, transforming into a dim cyan talisman.

With a muffled "puchi" sound, the cyan talisman spontaneously ignited, burning until not even ash remained.

The Green Wind Tiger was, after all, a manifestation of a Beast Soul Talisman rather than a physical entity; otherwise, it would not have been so easily destroyed.

At this moment, the Crimson Flame Wolf was struck again by a silver talisman, causing black smoke to rise from its body along with the smell of scorched flesh.

The Crimson Flame Wolf let out a mournful howl, transformed into a dim red talisman, and ignited without fire, burning into ashes.

Xu Lei frowned and hurriedly controlled his parent blade to attack Shen Long.

The Ice Cloud Spider broke away from the skirmish and spat out a dozen White Ice Spikes to attack Xu Lei.

The Mountain Pushing Beast tried to intercept, but a thick cyan vine burst from the ground and coiled around its body just as a White Ice Spike flew toward it.

The Mountain Pushing Beast opened its mouth and spat out a dozen yellow Earth Spikes, which collided with the White Ice Spike.

With a muffled thud, the White Ice Spike shattered, and a surge of extreme cold gushed out, leaving white ice shards scattered across the ground.

A silver bolt of lightning as thick as an infant's arm descended from the sky and struck the Mountain Pushing Beast, causing it to grunt in pain.

Shen Long intended to finish off the Mountain Pushing Beast quickly so he could free up time to deal with Sun Yang; he knew full well that the Ice Cloud Spider could not hold Xu Lei for long.

Sun Yang frowned deeply, controlling his Red Flying Knife to hack at the cyan vines, while a Crimson Fireball the size of a water vat descended from the sky, smashing toward him.

He flicked his finger, and his Golden Shield rose to meet the Crimson Fireball.

With a thunderous boom, the Crimson Fireball burst, and rolling flames engulfed the Golden Shield.

The sound of thunder was incessant as bolt after bolt of silver lightning fell. Shen Long flicked his left hand, sending a White Ice Spike flying out, and flicked his right, launching a Crimson Fireball the size of a water vat.

White Ice Spikes and Crimson Fireballs flew out one after another, heading straight for Sun Yang and the Mountain Pushing Beast.

"Ice Spike Technique at Great Perfection!"

Sun Yang exclaimed in surprise; he had not expected Shen Long to have cultivated four first-tier spells to the Great Perfection stage.

No wonder Shen Long dared to seize the Spirit Control Token; it seemed he had some confidence after all.

Crimson Fireballs smashed into the Mountain Pushing Beast one after another, their rolling flames engulfing its body, while thick bolts of silver lightning struck down simultaneously.

Before long, a yellow light lit up on the surface of the Mountain Pushing Beast, and it transformed into a dim yellow talisman that ignited without fire, burning into ashes.

By this time, Xu Lei had also finished off the Ice Cloud Spider; the power of the Parent-Child Blades was immense, and the Ice Cloud Spider, formed by a Beast Soul Talisman, could not withstand it at all.

Sun Yang and Xu Lei controlled their magical artifacts to attack Shen Long, who responded by releasing Crimson Fireballs toward Sun Yang.

Shen Long then activated a Lightning Attraction Talisman, which transformed into a mass of black thunderclouds floating at the top of the cave.

Shen Long had purchased two Lightning Attraction Talismans years ago and bought another one recently; he had used one to kill a Qi Refining cultivator, another just now, and only one remained.

The black thunderclouds churned, and a silver bolt of lightning as thick as an infant's arm struck down toward Sun Yang.

Sun Yang frowned, pinched a spell seal, and sent the Golden Shield to meet it.

The silver lightning struck the Golden Shield, causing it to tremble slightly.

"Fellow Daoist Sun, with your strength, there is no need to get involved in this. If Xu Lei kills me, he won't let you go either."

Shen Long said.

"Fellow Daoist Sun, don't listen to his nonsense. Every time we hunt demonic beasts, have I ever shorted you on your share? Kill Shen Long, and I am willing to split the loot with you, but the Spirit Control Token must be mine."

Xu Lei said.

"That's hard to say. It's relatively easy for an eighth-level Qi Refining cultivator to kill a sixth-level one. If I were you, Fellow Daoist, I would leave now. You can stay if you like, but even if I die, I will drag you down with me."

Shen Long tried to persuade him, all the while releasing Crimson Fireballs at Sun Yang.

"Fellow Daoist Sun, don't listen to his lies. I am willing to swear an oath by my inner demon: if we kill Shen Long, I will split all the loot with you, except for the Spirit Control Token."

Xu Lei promised.

If Sun Yang left, he did not have absolute certainty of killing Shen Long, as Shen Long's cultivation of four spells to the Great Perfection stage meant his strength was not to be underestimated.

Hearing this, Sun Yang no longer had any reservations, and his Red Flying Knife flared with red light, slashing toward Shen Long.

Shen Long hurriedly controlled his Azure Moon Shears to meet it. They collided with the Red Flying Knife, producing a sound of clashing metal, while the four yellow flying knives struck the Blue Water Screen one after another, causing ripples to spread as its light slowly dimmed.

Under the assault of the silver lightning, the light of the Golden Shield dimmed, and fine cracks appeared on its surface.

Shen Long released Crimson Fireballs, which smashed into the Golden Shield one after another, heating it until it was scorching hot.

A White Ice Spike shot over and struck the Golden Shield, causing it to tremble slightly. The spike burst, and a surge of extreme cold gushed out, engulfing the Golden Shield; more cracks appeared on its surface, and it began to emit wisps of green smoke.

A thick bolt of silver lightning struck the Golden Shield, causing it to shake and adding even more cracks to its surface.

The Azure Moon Shears flared with light, knocking the Red Flying Knife aside before circling back to strike the Golden Shield, shattering it into pieces. Fortunately, Sun Yang still had three layers of defense on his person, and the outermost Red Light Screen blocked the Azure Moon Shears.

The black thunderclouds churned, and another silver bolt of lightning as thick as an infant's arm struck the Red Light Screen, causing it to flicker. A Crimson Fireball the size of a water vat then smashed into the screen, and rolling flames engulfed it.

Even through two layers of light screens, Sun Yang could still feel the intense, scorching heat.

Xu Lei controlled the four yellow flying knives to attack the Blue Water Screen, and its light grew increasingly dim.

Shen Long frowned; the ribs of the Mystic Water Umbrella had developed tiny cracks, and it clearly could not hold out much longer.

The black thundercloud dissipated after striking down nine silver bolts of lightning, rendering the Lightning Attraction Talisman useless.

"Finish him quickly, I can't hold on for much longer."

Sun Yang spoke, his tone filled with anxiety.

As the flames dispersed, he still had a Cyan Light Screen protecting his body.

He sacrificed another Red Flying Dart, launching an attack at Shen Long.

Four Yellow Flying Knives, one Red Flying Knife, and one Red Flying Dart struck the Blue Water Screen in succession, causing the spiritual light of the Blue Water Screen to dim and a multitude of cracks to appear on the ribs of the Mystic Water Umbrella.

With a muffled thud, the Blue Water Screen collapsed, and the Mystic Water Umbrella was shredded to pieces by the four Yellow Flying Knives.

Shen Long was still covered by two light screens, but they would not last long.

Shen Long raised both hands, and a Crimson Fireball followed by a White Ice Spike shot out, striking the Cyan Light Screen on Sun Yang's body one after the other.

Rolling flames engulfed the Cyan Light Screen, and immediately after, the White Ice Spike struck it, causing the Cyan Light Screen to wobble and emit a wisp of green smoke.

Before the flames could dissipate, another Crimson Fireball smashed into it, causing the fire to surge; the Azure Moon Shears and a Red Flying Dart shot over, causing the Cyan Light Screen to shake slightly as its spiritual light grew increasingly dim.

A grayish-white tail stinger burst from the ground and struck the Cyan Light Screen, which shattered instantly as if it were made of paper.

"Oh no, a spirit insect."

Sun Yang cried out in his heart, but before he could dodge, a thick Cyan Vine erupted from the ground, binding his left leg. The tail stinger struck him between the eyebrows; his pupils constricted, and he collapsed, an expression of disbelief frozen on his face.

With Sun Yang dead, two Mid-grade Magical Tools fell to the ground.

Shen Long still had a Yellow Light Screen and a Cyan Light Screen protecting him; he let out a long sigh of relief. Having dealt with Sun Yang, the pressure on him eased significantly.

The four Yellow Flying Knives suddenly flared with yellow light, slashing toward Shen Long.

Shen Long pinched a spell seal, causing the Azure Moon Shears and a Red Flying Dart to circle around and intercept two of the Yellow Flying Knives.
