The companion died. When the remaining Twin-Blade Mantis saw this, not only was it not afraid, but it was completely aroused its ferocity.
It let out an even more shrill scream, and its four scythes danced wildly, desperately rushing towards Xu Wuyi, its attack even more violent than before.
However, without the control of its companions, the threat of a single Twin-Blade Mantis to Xu Wuyi is greatly reduced.
Xu Wuyi did not even turn on [Furnace Flame] again, but relied on the absolute advantage of [Furnace Boiling Blood] state to dance Long Spear and challenge it head-on.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
The sound of intensive collisions is endless.
Every time there was a confrontation, Twin-Blade Mantis was shaken back by the terrifying power, and tiny cracks even began to appear on the sickle0
The speed for which it is famous no longer seems so impossible to capture in the face of Xu Wuyi's reaction at this moment.
Xu Wuyi is like a tireless furnace, Blood and Qi keeps running forward, becoming more and more courageous as he fights.
He caught the opponent's stiffness after an attack, Long Spear instantly pierced one of his compound eyes, and the force penetrated his brain.
The movements of the second Twin-Blade Mantis suddenly froze, and then followed in the footsteps of its companions, turning into white light and disappearing.
Silence returned to the Gobi Desert.
"It takes 0 minutes and 37 seconds to clear the sixth level."
The system prompt sounds.
Xu Wuyi slowly put away the gun, without much joy on his face, as if he had just done a trivial thing.
He felt the power still surging in his body, and had a more intuitive understanding of the improvement brought about by <Hundred Refinements Furnace>.
"Only relying on physical strength and the power of Blood and Qi, I crushed the sixth level - B-Grade Body Tempering Method. It is really scary."
He did not quit, and set his sights on the light door that represented a higher challenge.
"Enter the seventh level."
Scene changes.
The dark purple sky disappeared, replaced by a dark and silent woodland.
The towering ancient trees blocked the sky and the sun, with only a few scattered rays of dim moonlight shining through the gaps between the dense branches and leaves, forming mottled light spots on the ground.
The air is filled with the moist smell of rotting leaves, and a vague and cold atmosphere.
--
The surroundings were extremely quiet, not even the chirping of insects could be heard.
"The target of the seventh level challenge: Shadow Fang (1 head). Conditions for passing the level: Kill Shadow Fang within ten minutes. Conditions for failure: Failure to complete the kill within the timeout, or death."
"The challenger for this level, Life Energy Level, is fixed at level 19."
The system prompt made Xu Wuyi raise his eyebrows slightly.
Shadow Fang, he had seen the introduction of Star Beast in the database, and the sentence that impressed him most was - "dogs that can lurk in shadows."
He held Long Spear tightly, concentrated his energy, and carefully observed his surroundings.
The light in the forest is dim, the shadows are thick, and the line of sight is severely obstructed.
Time passed by minute by minute, and there was still no movement around.
That Shadow Fang seems not to exist at all, or in other words, it blends into the environment perfectly.
Xu Wuyi was not impatient. He moved slowly, trying to catch the other party's traces through his voice and breath.
However, nothing was found.
This Star Beast has extremely strong latent ability.
Suddenly, his feet stopped, and an extremely weak energy wave came from the shadow behind him.
Without thinking, Xu Wuyi stabbed the shadow with a backhand shot!
Long Spear pierces the shadow, but like a mud cow entering the sea, it only stirs up a few rotten leaves.
The attack failed.
In other words, the opponent had already moved away the moment before his attack arrived.
"So fast? Or----" Xu Wuyi thought in his mind.
Can it really move in shadow?
At this moment, he felt a sharp stabbing pain coming from the back of his left calf!
When he looked down, he saw a sharp claw that was as black as a shadow. It had come out of his own shadow at some point, leaving three bloody traces on his calf that were as deep as the bone!
Severe pain was felt, and the feedback from the virtual body was extremely real.
Xu Wuyi suddenly jumped forward, while Long Spear swept backwards, but it was empty again.
The sharp claws of the shadow retreated with one strike, instantly retracted into his shadow and disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
"Sure enough, it was attacking from the shadow----" Xu Wuyi's eyes were solemn.
This attack method is too weird and difficult to guard against.
He couldn't be sure which shadow the opponent would attack from in the next second. It might be the shadow of the ground, the shadow of a tree, or even the shadow of his own body.
He tried to move quickly, constantly changing positions, leaving his shadow in an unstable state.
But Shadow Fang was extremely patient and fell into silence again, like the top assassin, waiting for the opportunity to kill with one strike.
There was a feeling of numbness in the wound on the calf, and it was obvious that the opponent's attack had some kind of negative effect.
Xu Wuyi knows that we can no longer remain passive like this.
He stopped, stood there, and slowly closed his eyes.
Vision is almost useless in this environment, and he needs to rely on other perceptions.
The mental power spreads outward like mercury pouring down the ground, carefully sensing the subtle changes in every inch of the surrounding space.
However, when Shadow Fang lurks in the shadows, it seems to be able to perfectly isolate its own breath and energy fluctuations, and the detection of mental power has little effect.
"It seems that we can only use it."
Xu Wuyi With a thought in his mind, the red golden wisp [Heart Fire] deep in the Dantian was quietly aroused.
He did not attack Heart Fire directly, but slowly launched Diffusion Rule with a trace of "charm" contained in it like ripples.
This invisible ripple sweeps across the surrounding trees, ground, light spots, and - all shadows.
At first, there was nothing unusual.
But when the ripples containing the charm of [Heart Fire] swept across the shadow under his own feet, a weak "foreign body feeling" was felt, like Water Drop falling into a frying pan, instantly exploding in his soul!
Found it!
It has been lurking in its own shadow!
Xu Wuyi opened his eyes suddenly and ejaculated!
He didn't hesitate at all, and didn't even look at his own shadow. Blood and Qi exploded in his body, and [Furnace Flame] Triple Force instantly blessed Long Spear!
He held the gun in one hand, with the tip of the gun pointing downwards, and stabbed the shadow on the ground under his feet with Thunder force!
"Come out!"
"Pfft--!"
A dull attack sounded.
Long Spear penetrated into the ground, not into the texture of soil, but as if into some kind of tough flesh!
"Ouch--!"
A shrill scream of pain, accompanied by a scream of horror, erupted from the depths of the shadow of Xu Wuyi!
The next moment, a dog-like creature was "forced" out of the shadow space by Long Spear!
It was huge, and its entire body was as black as ink. One of its front paws was nailed to the ground by Long Spear, and black blood flowed out gurglingly.
There was a faint black air lingering around its body, and a pair of scarlet eyes were full of pain at the moment, staring at Xu Wuyi.
It is Shadow Fang!
Xu Wuyi had no expression on his face, exerted force on his wrist, and Long Spear was shocked!
[Furnace Flame]Triple Force completely exploded inside Shadow Fang!
Shadow Fang's howling sound stopped suddenly, his scarlet eyes instantly lost their luster, and his huge body twitched violently for a few times, then stopped moving.
"It takes 3 minutes and 12 seconds to clear the seventh level."
The system prompt sounded, breaking the dead silence of the forest.
Xu Wuyi pulled out Long Spear and looked at the place where Shadow Fang disappeared with a calm expression. [Heart Fire] The effect in dealing with such strange enemies is unexpectedly good.
This level passed so easily not only because of his great improvement in strength, but also because of the ability he mastered, which happened to be one of the restraints Shadow Fang.
Xu Wuyi doesn't find it strange either. He basically relied on hard power to get through the first six levels.
These Star Beast have different abilities, so it's his turn to be restrained, right?
However, he had only recently acquired this ability.
"Psychic perception——No wonder every martial arts school will carry out spiritual practice at the same time. The power of the spirit is too powerful."
Xu Wuyi took a short rest and then stopped staying.
Continue to the eighth level!
