Bloodline Suppression
"I've been waiting for you for so long—!"
A sharp rebuke came from Yang Shelly's red lips.
As the blade slashed down, a streak of cyan light flew out and slashed diagonally towards a figure behind the big tree.
Following the blade's movement, Yang Shelly's running speed increased by more than 50%, closely following the wind blade as they pounced on the figure hidden in the shadows.
Semi-Self-Created Soul Skill - Wind Leopard Assault!
Having just clashed with the "Wind Shadow Leopard" less than half an hour ago, a moment that left the deepest impression on her, Yang Shelly pounced as if she had transformed into a female leopard, her "Long-Handled Scythe" like a bloodthirsty fang aimed straight at the prey's carotid artery.
On the other side, Ah Yin, still dressed as a man, was clearly not expecting to face this scene.
In haste, they had no choice but to duck behind a large tree, using the trunk of the tree, which took three people to encircle, as a shield to block the scythe of death.
"Laugh--"
With a flash of cold light, a huge gash appeared on the thick tree trunk, as if it had been swept by some prehistoric behemoth.
With the tree trunk blocking his way, Ah Yin had a brief respite. A bright blue light shone from the palm of her right hand, and then blazed out.
First Soul Skill - Seed of Blue Silver!
In an instant, a pale blue light transformed into ripples, spreading outwards from Ah Yin as the center.
Visibly, one after another "Blue Silver Grass" sprouted from the soil in this forest and grew rapidly.
As for the existing "Blue Silver Grass," it instantly grew larger and swayed in mid-air, winding its way towards Yang Shelly.
Yang Shelly stomped her foot on the broken tree trunk beside her, dodging the first wave of dark blue vines that were about to entangle her.
Unexpectedly, in just the time it takes to breathe, the "Blue Silver Grass" that had just sprouted from the ground transformed into a new force and charged towards her once again.
Yang Shelly's personality is one of offense as defense. Her evasion just now was influenced by Ling Yi these past few days. Before knowing the effects of the opponent's Soul Skill, the consciousness of avoiding the opponent's sharp edge took the lead.
Faced with these almost inescapable cascading vines, Yang Shelly's "Long-Handled Scythe" began to dance up and down.
"Sizzle... sizzle... sizzle... Ding—!"
At first, when Yang Shelly's blade met these vines, it was a true Wushuang mowing, with blue-green tubers and grass juice splattering everywhere. But when a vine with golden patterns quietly joined in, Yang Shelly's sickle suddenly felt a significant resistance.
Although the blade still severed the vine, the stagnation allowed more vines to break through and reach within a foot of Yang Shelly, making the situation look extremely precarious.
However, Yang Shelly Xueli's fair face showed no sign of panic, and a dark glint appeared on the blade.
Beneath his feet, the third purple Soul Ring shone brightly.
With the release of the "Third Soul Skill - Explosion", amidst the crackling sounds, no more vines could get close to the three-foot radius around Yang Shelly.
Just then, a glint flashed in Yang Shelly's bright eyes, and her dark pupils instantly contracted.
I saw it—!
A thought flashed through her mind, and with a stride of her long, beautiful legs, she pushed off the ground with her delicate feet and disappeared from the spot.
Semi-Self-Created Soul Skill: Light as a Swallow + Cormorant Approaches the Water
The cormorant, also known as the fish eagle, is of medium to small size among eagles. It usually feeds on fish and has the unique talents of eagles and hawks, with extremely sharp eyesight and a speed as fast as lightning.
With the enhancements of the states of "Light as a Swallow" and "Cormorant Approaches the Water", Yang Shelly's speed increased dramatically, and she made very little noise, narrowly avoiding the swaying vines along the way.
In just two breaths, he overcame the obstacles and stood two meters away from a tall figure.
Here, Yang Shelly had to stop.
The closer she got to her target, the more the surrounding "Blue Silver Grass" vines seemed to go mad, twisting their bodies wildly and launching a deadly charge towards her.
On the other side, all three Soul Ring under Ah Yin's feet shone brightly. Apart from the First Soul Skill, Seed of Blue Silver, the Second Soul Skill, Toughness of Blue Silver Golden Threads, and the Third Soul Skill, Domain of Myriad Forms, had already been used, but they were all swept away by Yang Shelly with unstoppable force.
As Yang Shelly approached, although the power of the ' Blue Silver Domain ' had not yet been fully activated, Ah Yin felt a sense of oppression that was almost tangible.
At this moment, two pairs of bright eyes met, and both saw in each other's eyes a solemnity and an excited fighting spirit of meeting a worthy opponent.
Azure and black, two intensely colored, invisible flames, are about to stage a fierce battle in this deserted forest.
However, at that moment, a loud boom suddenly broke out, interrupting the battle that was about to erupt between the two.
"Brother Yi—!"
With a sharp cry, Yang Shelly paused, her foot pausing after taking a half-step forward. She then looked warily at Ah Yin opposite her, flew backward, and after nearly ten meters away, she took a deep look at Ah Yin, who hadn't seized the opportunity to attack, before running without hesitation towards the direction from which the explosion had just occurred.
At the same time, that was also the stream where Ling Yi had been before.
Behind her, Ah Yin watched Yang Shelly's figure disappear into the distance. A hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination, and she followed after her.
However, despite following her around, Ah Yin still kept a certain distance in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
Previously, Yang Shelly and Ah Yin had been attacking and controlling each other, and in a short time, they had moved dozens of meters into the forest. Now, when they rushed back, it didn't take them long to reach the edge of the woodland, where they could see the scene by the stream in the distance.
As far as the eye could see, Ling Yi stood unharmed on a large round rock by the stream. Four or five meters away, a dark blue leopard lay on the ground, spitting out mouthfuls of blood.
Without time to think about the reason, Yang Shelly's long legs flew quickly, and in a few breaths she crossed the hundred-meter distance from the edge of the woods to the stream, arriving at Ling Yi's side.
With her phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, Yang Shelly glanced at the agonizingly howling "Wind Shadow Leopard," then focused all her attention on Ling Yi, looking him up and down with concern, asking, "Brother Yi, are you alright?"
"I'm fine~" Ling Yi reached out and brushed the sticky grass off Yang Shelly's hair and shoulders, replying with a light laugh, "I have plenty of ways to save my life, you know that—"
Ling Yi glanced sideways at the "Wind Shadow Leopard," whose mouth was still oozing blood, and shook his head indifferently, saying, "I didn't expect this guy to be so cunning. He deliberately pretended to leave, but secretly followed us..."
It was also his carelessness. Because he was wary of the lurking presence, he did not use the sensory abilities of the "Blue Silver Grass" and relied solely on his enhanced five senses, which prevented him from detecting the "Wind Shadow Leopard" that was lurking in the distance at the first moment.
This guy maintained a distance of at least a thousand meters. In this complex environment filled with various green plants and traces left by many passing Soul Master and Soul Beast, Ling Yi really couldn't detect its presence.
"But you," Ling Yi said, turning his gaze to the short-haired blue figure who was following behind Yang Shelly Yang Shelly and had just reached the edge of the woods a hundred meters away, "Were you injured in your fight with that person?"
At this moment, although he appeared calm, Ling Yi felt an unprecedented pressure.
This pressure came from deep within his blood, making him feel as if he had a fishbone stuck in his throat, extremely uncomfortable!
Sorry, relatives came to visit, that's why I'm late.
