This Kid Was Beyond Cautious-He Was Downright Insane!
After speaking, Bibi Dong's figure seemed to merge into the shadows as she retreated several steps, instantly disappearing behind a huge, grotesque, dark rock beside the valley entrance, leaving only her cold and cruel reminder echoing in the gloomy wind.
Lin Xia was completely dumbfounded by Bibi Dong's actions!
Let's just go!
For some reason, Lin Xia suddenly missed Qian Daoliu's teachings!
At least not as unrestrained Bibi Dong!
The aura of death surged in Pidgey like a tangible tide, attempting to overwhelm Lin Xia and Ivysaur's will.
However, at this moment, the intense fear in Lin Xia's eyes had faded considerably, replaced by a sharp, hawk-like edge, and... a trace of indescribable fighting spirit, a mixture of excitement and solemnity!
The land where the Rakshasa God inherited his legacy... Even if it's just a guess, the mere thought is enough to ignite Lin Xia's heart, Covet power and the truth of the world!
He slowly crouched down, his palm stroking the Ivysaur's back, conveying a firm belief.
"Da na..."
Ivysaur sensed the change in its master's mood. Its scarlet eyes were fixed on the dark and deep valley entrance. The flower bud on its back slowly withdrew its light, not by extinguishing it, but by accumulating all its fiery power within itself, like a blazing sun that had been drawn back but was not yet unleashed.
The greatest crisis contains a glimmer of hope for ascending to godhood!
Lin Xia took a deep breath of the cold air, which carried the smell of decay and blood, her eyes sharp as if she were honing a dagger.
A quarter of an hour has passed.
Lin Xia no longer hesitated and gave a low shout.
"Ivysaur, use Swords Dance!"
"Three consecutive Swords Dance!"
After a while, Lin Xia looked at the aura emanating from Ivysaur and nodded in satisfaction, her eyes full of approval!
With just that kind of aura, Ivysaur has at least reached the Soul Elder, or even Soul Ancestor!
The three Swords Dance combined pushed Ivysaur's battle state to its peak!
The powerful energy surge startled even Bibi Dong, who was hiding in the shadows.
Such a dense and tireless stacking of amplified Soul Skill as a "preliminary action" is extremely rare, even among the most elite warriors of the Spirit Hall!
This little guy isn't preparing for a battle; he's practically preparing to face annihilation.
"Full power! Let's go!"
Lin Xia felt a surge of power from Ivysaur, which calmed her down a little, but her nerves became even more tense.
Lin Xia, carrying a fully armed Ivysaur, stepped into the darkness of Death Canyon.
The light dimmed instantly.
The moment Lin Xia's vision adjusted to the valley environment, her pupils suddenly contracted to the size of pinpoints, and a chilling coldness instantly shot from her spine to the top of her head, making her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave!
What lay before us was not the desolate Gobi Desert we had imagined.
Along both sides of the road, layer upon layer, piled up like mountains... were countless white bones!
Ribs, leg bones, skulls... human and Soul Beast bones, broken and tattered, their stark whiteness blinding, reflecting a chilling luster in the dim light.
Some of the bones still had dried, blackened blood and bits of flesh stuck to them, emitting a strong Stench.
This is not a road at all; it is a ghostly path paved with corpses and death!
Even more terrifying, in the crevices of the pile of bones, in the dark corners of the rock walls, and even among the stalactites hanging overhead, countless thick, dark red vines, resembling giant earthworms or blood vessels, were slowly wriggling and twisting!
They are alive!
The rough skin was covered in a nauseating slime, and with each wriggling movement it squeezed the white bone beneath, making a teeth-grinding "crack" sound, and secreted a dark red liquid with a strong, fishy stench, like the rotting flesh of the earth.
A cloyingly sweet, pungent, and suffocatingly putrid odor filled the air, assaulting Lin Xia's nostrils and mind!
This scene unfolded before my eyes like a painting of the deepest level of purgatory!
My sanity is skyrocketing!
Even with Lin Xia's strong will, she felt a strong visual shock and a sense of mental nausea!
"Depend on!"
Even with Lin Xia's composure, he couldn't help but curse inwardly as a chilling sense of crisis instantly overwhelmed him!
Without any hesitation, Lin Xia reacted instinctively almost the instant she saw her surroundings!
"Ivysaur! Leech Seed! Maximum Range! Indiscriminate Coverage!"
"Dana--!!"
Ivysaur also sensed the terrifying environmental pressure. Its huge flower bud on its back trembled violently, and dozens of emerald green Leech Seed shot out like a dense green meteor shower with all its might!
These seeds spun and roared, transforming into a green rain with a powerful life-detecting ability, covering everything in all directions—piles of bones, crevices of wriggling vines, and any shadowy corners where danger might lurk!
Even if it comes at a great cost, we must seize the early warning opportunity as soon as possible and control as many blind spots as possible!
At the same time, Lin Xia's own Soul Power surged wildly!
The clothes on his back tore silently open, and six twisted, ferocious, and eerily green Toxic vines sprang out like venomous snakes!
Instead of attacking outwards, these vines suddenly intertwined and combined in mid-air!
After a dazzling wriggling and hardening, the six bone vines, enveloped in dark green Soul Power, rapidly wove and shaped themselves, transforming into a pair of... huge, sturdy, bony wings covered in sharp barbs and shrouded in gray-green poisonous mist behind Lin Xia!
Poison Vine Bone Wings, with External Soul Bone form transformation, Defense Forme: Poison Wing Guardian Umbrella!
It wasn't for flying, but rather like two enormous, spiked, and poisonous shields that instantly unfolded, protecting Lin Xia's back and sides!
The vine's unique resilience provides excellent physical protection, while its accompanying Toxic act as a natural Barrier to keep living organisms away!
That's not all!
Lin Xia focused his gaze, his Soul Power surged instantly, and his Second Soul Ring suddenly shone brightly!
"Second Soul Skill - Sun Wheel Guard!"
Buzz!
A soft, resonant sound, like the deep tolling of a bell, resounded from within Lin Xia's body! Instantly, an incredibly solid, massive golden energy shield expanded outwards from him!
The light shield is perfectly round, and its surface seems to have liquid, extremely concentrated sunlight flowing and swirling, radiating a soft yet firm, intense glow!
It is like a warm miniature sun, not only radiating a sacred and pure aura of light, but also possessing a powerful purifying and repelling force, Sheer Force pushing away the surrounding filth and miasma, the chilling death aura, and the eerie blood-red light emanating from the writhing, approaching slimy vines, all within a ten-foot radius!
The temperature inside the light shield was comfortable, bright, and safe, forming a stark contrast to the hellish scene outside!
Piles of white bones lay on both sides, while bloody vines twisted and writhed.
Amidst the corpses scattered everywhere, emerald green Leech Seed rained down in all directions, searching for hidden enemies.
A young boy with Toxic bone wings spread out on his back, his body surrounded by a Sun Wheel, shutting out death and filth, as if he Sheer Force opened up a small divine realm of light in the dark underworld!
In the shadows, the shadows of the rocks rippled as if alive, and Bibi Dong, who was perfectly blended into them, revealed for the first time an undisguised look of astonishment in her deep Viola eyes!
Steady?
This kid is beyond just being steady!
This is simply... an insane level of protection!
