"Delay it a little longer, delay it a little longer..."
Gu Lingxuan kept repeating it, her gaze fixed on the distance.
As far as the eye could see, the slightly undulating Calamity Beast would occasionally take a moment to glance at the situation here.
The Mirror Water Beast had been keeping an eye on the two women who hadn't participated in the battle.
She certainly wanted to attack the Mirror Water Beast as soon as possible, but she only had one chance. If she failed this time and the Mirror Water Beast realized their methods, it would be unlikely that she would succeed again.
Thinking of this, Gu Lingxuan gripped the Origin Crystal in her hand, her figure following the figure beside her as she darted forward.
"Whoosh, whoosh--"
The tentacles swept through the air, creating a series of whooshing sounds.
As the Mirror Water Beast moved forward, it kept watching the two humans rushing towards it.
From the very beginning, it was curious why only these two humans came; where were the other two?
Those two humans' abilities were clearly more suitable for dealing with me!
Thinking of this, the Mirror Water Beast opened its mouth and spat out a water bullet, forcing back the approaching Mirror Water Beast, then turned its gaze back to the two humans in the distance.
After a quick scan, the focus shifted to the Origin Crystal held in the hands of the two individuals.
I could sense that they had recovered somewhat compared to before.
So, jing. shui. shou and the others wanted to stall him for time, allowing the two humans who could deal with him to recover first?... The Mirror Water Beast wondered somewhat uncertainly.
It turned its gaze back to the human charging at it with a spear, its tentacles rising up.
"Clang, clang, clang, bang--"
The gunman was sent flying again.
The Mirror Water Beast paid no attention; it was deep in thought.
Should I just ignore what these humans are thinking and take this opportunity to kill these two humans instead of dragging things out?
Just as the Mirror Water Beast was pondering this, its gaze suddenly paused slightly.
He raised his gaze and it fell on the two humans in the distance.
Suddenly, the figure wielding the Greatsword made another move, raising the Greatsword.
Hmm... Has he fully recovered? Or is this part of their plan, to let gu. ci. ou recover a bit before attacking him?
The Mirror Water Beast was unsure, but it sensed that the second one seemed meaningless.
After all, it had already become familiar with that human's abilities during the previous process.
Besides, they're so far apart now, it's even less likely they'd do that to themselves... wait, no...
The Mirror Water Beast seemed to suddenly remember something and turned its body around.
In my field of vision, the slender figure that was originally tens of meters away has now moved to more than ten meters away using that brief moment.
His gaze was fixed directly on himself.
The human with the spear was a little slower, but only slightly behind.
Both of them seemed to be giving it their all, holding nothing back this time.
So, are they trying to use their movements over there to make me think they're about to launch a sneak attack, to distract me, and then launch a sneak attack from here?... The Mirror Water Beast looked at the two humans in front of it, raised its tentacles to defend itself.
This design does seem quite ingenious, but what's the point?
Those who only know melee combat, even if they get close enough, can at most spread themselves out, but can't inflict much damage...
Having reached this point in his thought, the Mirror Water Beast paused slightly again.
Jing Shui Shou is very clever; he couldn't possibly be unaware of this. Therefore, there must be some hidden plan, or...
As if it had thought of something, the Mirror Water Beast turned its gaze to the other side again.
In the distance, the two people who were originally quite far apart have narrowed the distance to within tens of meters in a short period of time.
Thick, Distortion air enveloped the Greatsword that had been raised behind them.
"Heh, so the real preparations are here?"... The Mirror Water Beast chuckled inwardly.
It didn't hide, nor could it hide.
Several moments of hesitation and distraction had already caused it to waste its chances of evading the attack.
"Whoosh--"
The Greatsword swept past not far away.
The next instant, an attack, gathering an unknown amount of Origin Power, Distortion the air and, like an air cannon, swept straight towards them.
"Buzz--"
The air cannon not only covered the Mirror Water Beast, but also Shen Heng and Cao Mingyu, who were originally attacking the Mirror Water Beast.
The three people, who had been moving rapidly, suddenly seemed to sink into a quagmire and came to a stop in place.
In the distance, Lin Zhaoran's eyes flickered slightly.
With the plan progressing to this point, it's more than halfway complete.
" Zhaoran!"
A soft shout.
"Understood!" Lin Zhaoran quickly replied, then went to Gu Lingxuan's side.
A deathly pale chill rapidly gathered in her palm, and a white sphere of ice, about half the size of a person, quickly took shape.
Like Gu Lingxuan, this attack also contained most of her Origin Power.
Gu Lingxuan also raised her hand, and the Distortion air rapidly gathered around the white icy sphere.
The next moment.
"Buzz--"
The white, icy ball shot out straight out.
The already fast speed became even faster with the help of the air.
The Mirror Water Beast stared at that spot, at the white ice ball that was larger than any of its previous attacks.
It tried to dodge, but its body was suppressed by the air cannon, making its movements much slower.
It wanted to attack, but the speed at which its tentacles rose in the Distortion air had slowed considerably.
It could only watch as the ice puck rapidly magnified in its pupils.
"It's going to work!"
Cao Mingyu stood there, bent over, his back trembling slightly.
The Distortion air could freeze Late Fifth Tier Mirror Water Beast in place, and naturally it could also freeze him, who was only at the Early Fifth Tier.
The oppressive feeling coming from left to right made his body tremble slightly. Only the fact that his right foot was on the ground allowed him to keep his body in place.
However, none of this could dampen his excitement.
"It's going to work!"
He shouted in his heart once again.
He raised his gaze, watching the icy ball that was being thrown straight at the Mirror Water Beast.
This attack might not be enough to kill the Mirror Water Beast outright, but it should be enough to severely injure Mirror Water Beast.
If we can severely damage the Mirror Water Beast, then the rest will be much easier!
The only problem might be that they might also be affected!
However, all of this doesn't seem to be a major problem, provided that the Mirror Water Beast can be severely injured.
After all, when the attack came from that side, it had already focused its target as much as possible on the Mirror Water Beast.
He just stared at the icy ball hurtling towards the Mirror Water Beast.
Like him, Gu Lingxuan and Lin Zhaoran were also watching intently from afar, observing the attack that was getting closer and closer to the Mirror Water Beast.
Unlike the other three, Shen Heng's expression was calm.
He stared at the Mirror Water Beast Mirror Water Beast, and at the items that were rapidly emerging from its body.
Several items were piled together, long and somewhat oval in shape, but it was impossible to tell what they were.
However, this isn't a major problem.
The object rapidly magnified inside the Mirror Water Beast's body, and soon its true form became clear.
Those are... missiles, missiles piled up together!
Shen Heng stared at that spot with a solemn expression.
"Is this... Rumination?"
