Sun Wheel Guard's Absolute Defense Was Triggered!
The Soul-Devouring Ghost Tiger felt unprecedented pain and weakness!
All the Soul Power and powerful life essence he had cultivated throughout his life were now being frantically extracted and plundered by those damned vines!
Streams of pure and immense energy flowed back to Ivysaur body through the mysterious connection between the vines and seeds, with some even flowing into Lin Xia's body!
The flower bud on Ivysaur's back shone brightly, like rain after a long drought. Its previously depleted Soul Power was rapidly recovering, and its aura was even subtly rising!
The speed at which it takes Ingrain Absorb energy from the earth also increases dramatically!
Lin Xia also felt a warm current flow into her limbs and bones, replenishing her depleted Soul Power and invigorating her spirit!
One rises as the other falls!
The Soul-Devouring Ghost Tiger's aura was weakening at an alarming rate!
Its massive body was visibly shriveled and withered!
The eerie green flame of the soul was like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment!
Realizing that they would surely die if things continued this way, a glint of madness and despair flashed in the eyes of the Soul-Devouring Ghost Tiger!
It suddenly raised its broken head and let out a roar that Infiltrator the sky and was extremely shrill!
"Awooo--!!!"
This roar was no longer an attack; it was more like a desperate cry, a plea for help before death!
A warning sign was screaming in Lin Xia's heart!
Just as expected!
Almost the instant the roar sounded, a black shadow as fast as Gui Mei tore through the dim light above the canyon, swooping down like a black lightning bolt at a speed beyond the reach of the eye!
Its target was none other than Lin Xia, who was currently focused on manipulating the Leech Seed and maintaining the Sun Wheel Guard!
That's too fast!
Lin Xia only had time to frantically channel her Soul Power into the Poison Vine Bone Wings on her back!
Bang--!!!
A deep, guttural bang!
The terrifying kinetic energy carried by the dark figure Tackle into the enormous "Poison Wing Guardian Umbrella" woven from six bone vines behind Lin Xia!
The anticipated scene of the bone wings shattering and Lin Xia being thrown into the air did not occur!
The dark figure felt as if it had crashed into a mountain made of adamantite and ancient poison vines!
An overwhelming and irresistible force, mixed with a grayish-green Toxic mist, instantly rebounded and struck back!
"Eh--!"
A sharp, piercing cry, filled with shock and pain, rang out!
The dark figure was violently thrown backward, tumbling several times in the air before barely managing to regain its balance, with a few black feathers drifting down.
Lin Xia was only pushed forward a step by the enormous force. The Poison Vine Bone Wings on his back trembled violently and made a "creaking" sound as they were unable to bear the weight. Dark green light flowed and quickly repaired the tiny cracks at the point of Tackle, but the overall structure remained stable!
The Sun Wheel Guard only fluctuated violently for a moment, but did not break!
"The absolute defense of the Sun Wheel Guard has been triggered!"
Lin Xia understood; just a moment ago, the Bone Wings and the Sun Wheel Guard had shared the impact.
Without this Soul Skill, I might have died instantly from that attack!
Lin Xia turned around abruptly, her gaze Lock-On onto the true face of the dark figure in the air like lightning.
That's an eagle!
Its entire body is covered in feathers as dark as ink, as if they can absorb light. It is several times larger than an ordinary eagle or falcon, with a wingspan of nearly five meters!
A pair of sharp eagle eyes gleamed with a cold, eerie blue light, like a poisoned dagger, in the dim light!
What's most peculiar is its claws, which are not ordinary hooks, but rather like two curved, jet-black blades that gleam with a cold metallic light!
"Night Shadow Demon Eagle!"
Lin Xia gasped, instantly recognizing the legendary ferocious bird!
A top-tier predatory Soul Beast known for its speed and shadow attacks, which was declared extinct two thousand years ago!
Its fearsome reputation is in no way inferior to that of the Soul-Devouring Ghost Tiger!
Moreover, judging from its size and the imposing aura it exudes, it is clearly around five or six thousand years old!
Two top-tier Soul Beast, long extinct, have appeared simultaneously!
The water in Death Canyon was deeper than he had imagined!
The pressure instantly doubled!
The two Soul Beast exchanged a glance in the air and on the ground. Without a word, a tacit understanding between top predators was instantly reached—this human and his Martial Soul must die!
Without the slightest hesitation, and without giving Lin Xia and Ivysaur a chance to catch their breath and recover!
With a flap of its Dual Wingbeat, the Night Shadow Demon Eagle transformed into a blurry black afterimage, swooping down once more, its sharp claws aimed straight for Lin Xia's head!
Extremely fast!
On the ground, the dying Soul-Devouring Ghost Tiger unleashed its final ferocity!
Ignoring the excruciating pain and weakness caused by the parasitic vines frantically draining its life force, it burned its last bit of Soul Power and life essence, with a tragic momentum of mutual destruction, opened its blood-red maw, revealing its sharp teeth, and Lunge on Ivysaur!
It will drag this utterly disgusting Martial Soul, along with its master, into hell!
Faced with the close-quarters attack of two top-tier Soul Beast, Lin Xia and Ivysaur felt their scalps tingle!
"Guerrilla tactics! Don't engage in direct combat!"
Lin Xia shouted sharply, his footwork shifting as he used his Poison Vine Bone Wings as flexible shields to constantly block and deflect the Night Shadow Demon Eagle's lightning-fast claw attacks, creating a clanging sound of metal striking metal!
But Lin Xia dared not leave the Grassy Terrain and the area covered by the Sunny Day, as this was the foundation for their continued combat!
Ivysaur moved its massive body with equal agility, using its Vine Whip whips to thwart the Soul-Devouring Ghost Tiger's Body Press while continuously releasing Poison Powder and Toxic to weaken its opponent.
Sludge Bomb and Venoshock were used to fire in short bursts, targeting the vital wounds of the Soul-Devouring Ghost Tiger and the wing joints of the Night Shadow Demon Eagle!
In this life-or-death struggle, Lin Xia quietly activated his first Soul Skill — Life Poison!
An invisible, predatory force spread out, like countless tiny poisonous insects, frantically burrowing into the bodies of the two Soul Beasts, especially into the wounds they had sustained from the attack!
This force not only intensifies the existing toxins in their bodies, but also greedily absorbs and transforms the Life Energy and toxin essence that they have lost due to their injuries!
The Soul-Devouring Ghost Tiger was already in a state of near collapse, and the frenzied Absorb by the Leech Seed and the Life Poison only made things worse!
Its Body Press movements became slower and weaker.
Dark green, poisonous blood gushed out like streams from the wounds on his body, which were Wrap vines, emitting a pungent, fishy stench.
The eerie green flame in its eyes had become as faint as a firefly, and each breath it took was accompanied by a hoarse, broken bellows-like sound, as if it might be extinguished at any moment.
Finally!
After struggling for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the Soul-Devouring Ghost Tiger's body, already riddled with holes from the deadly Toxic and drained of its last bit of life by the Leech Seed and the Life Poison, could no longer hold on.
The enormous body, which had once struck fear into the hearts of countless Soul Beasts, suddenly stiffened, its forward momentum abruptly halted.
The vertical pupils, still burning with the last eerie green Ember, completely lost their luster, becoming empty and gray.
"Boom!"
With a dull thud, the Soul-Devouring Ghost Tiger collapsed heavily to the ground like rotten mud stripped of all its bones, sending bone fragments flying everywhere.
Its charred and shriveled body twitched slightly twice before it completely lost all life.
