"Damn..."
Shi Po took Bone Hammer away from Bamboo Leaf Umbrella, and held Bone Hammer with its forelimbs and turned it around twice.
The two green will-o'-the-wisps in its eye sockets were twice as bright as before.
The beating frequency of the will-o'-the-wisp was much faster than before, and fine sparks began to appear on the edge of the flame.
Its forelimbs and hind limbs tightened at the same time, and the entire deformed trunk was slightly arched on the stone bricks.
The Bone Spikes of different lengths in the Bone Spike bush stood up at the same time, with their thorn tips facing outwards.
"Laozi won't play these fancy things with you anymore."
It roared low and slammed its forelimbs to the ground. The moment it hit the ground, the Bone Spikes on its back exploded simultaneously.
Dozens of Bone Spike of different lengths fell off its back, hovered around it for a moment, and then shot out in the direction of Meng Jiu at the same time.
The trajectory of those Bone Spikes was extremely confusing.
Some go in a straight line.
Some go in an arc.
Some were spinning around the bamboo shoot fence in mid-air.
Some stick to the ground and drill through the roots of bamboo shoots.
Meng Jiu put the bamboo pole upright in front of him.
The bamboo joints on the bamboo pole simultaneously lit up with a layer of emerald green light, and new bamboo shoots sprouted from each bamboo joint.
But this time the bamboo shoots did not grow upward, but spread out in all directions, forming a bamboo forest of intertwined bamboo shoots and leaves around him.
The bamboos in the bamboo forest are densely arranged, and each one is continuously growing, thickening, leafing out, and sprouting branches, blocking the Bone Spike shot from Shi Po one by one.
Some Bone Spike were caught in bamboo shoots.
Some Bone Spike were bounced away by bamboo branches.
Some Bone Spike were nailed to bamboo poles, but when they were nailed half an inch in, they were wrapped, softened, and squeezed out by the juice seeping out of the bamboo joints.
Shi Po Looking at the bamboo forest spread inch by inch on Arena, the sparks in the green will-o'-wisps became even denser.
Its forelegs reached into its back again, and this time it pulled out a unique Bone Spike from its back.
The Root Bone thorn is completely black and covered with dark golden veins. There is no will-o'-the-wisp at the tip of the thorn.
But there was a thick layer of dark red light that was almost dripping down.
It held the black Bone Spike and shook it to its side. The black Bone Spike drew a dark golden arc in the air.
"Bone King Spike."
It thrust the black Bone Spike towards the bamboo forest.
The moment Black Bone Spike took off his hand, it turned into a thick pillar of dark gold light.
The light pillar was filled with dense Sha Qi fragments, each of which continued to release the power of destruction.
The light beam hit the bamboo forest, and most of the outermost bamboo shoots shattered under the impact of the light beam. The bamboo leaves were Sha Qi burned into blackened crumbs.
But the bamboo shoots inside the bamboo forest pushed out new shoot tips from the roots the moment they shattered.
One layer is broken, and another layer is repaired.
One layer is burnt, and another layer grows out.
"Your bamboo forest grows fast."
Shi Po's will-o'-the-wisps were beating rapidly in its eyes, and it suddenly lowered its voice, with a hint of gloomy cruelty in its tone.
"But Laozi I want to see whether your bamboo forest grows faster or Laozi's Bone Spike pulls out faster."
It inserted its forelegs into its back and pulled out another black Bone Spike.
Then the third root, the fourth root, and the fifth root.
The thick black Bone Spike on its back were pulled out one by one and inserted into the stone bricks in front of it.
Every time one is pulled out, a dark red blood hole appears on its back.
But it didn't seem to feel any pain, and it just mechanically repeated the action of pulling out the thorns, until a total of nine black Bone Spike were inserted in front of it.
"Nine-Spike Volley."
Its forelimbs suddenly slapped on the ground, and nine black Bone Spikes bounced off the ground at the same time, forming a row in mid-air.
Nine Root Bone thorns shot out at the same time, turning into nine dark golden light pillars and blasting towards the bamboo forest from nine different angles.
The bamboo forest shook violently under the impact of nine light beams.
The bamboo shoots shattered layer by layer.
The bamboo leaves were scorched one by one.
But the bamboo pole itself remained motionless in the center of the bamboo forest, and the emerald green light from the bamboo joints continued to pour out, repairing every damage.
