The radiance of various spirit rings flickered above the Lake of Life.
Lion Douluo activated his Spirit Avatar, transforming into a ferocious Blazing Lion, and charged straight ahead to tangle with the Ox-headed Serpent.
Almost at the same time, the Coiling Dragon Rods belonging to the two priests, Qianjun and Jiangmo, grew massive.
They smashed directly toward the horns of the Ox-headed Serpent.
They dissipated the power of lightning that the latter was trying to condense atop its head.
A sneak attack?
Then you must be an evil Spirit Beast; we cannot let you remain.
“Uncles, control the Coiling Dragon Rods in your hands and pin it to the ground along the base of its horns.” Qian Xunji immediately spoke up to remind them of the most efficient way to fight as a team.
These old shut-ins probably had very few opportunities to fight in groups, and their cooperation was still extremely clumsy.
However, Qian Xunji felt these issues weren’t major; he was, after all, an excellent Summoner’s Rift player.
Although Yue Guan and Gui Mei were currently only Spirit Douluos, since the plan was to hunt hundred-thousand-year spirit rings for them, they naturally didn’t just slack off on the sidelines.
Relying on the characteristic of their Martial Soul Fusion Technique to briefly control enemies, they seized the right moment.
A massive gold and silver halo settled over the Ox-headed Serpent.
In that very instant.
Light Feather Douluo’s massive ice attack pierced straight through the Ox-headed Serpent’s body, pinning it to the ground, unable to move.
“Aow—” The intense pain caused the Ox-headed Serpent to let out a whimpering sound from its mouth.
Its massive bovine eyes were filled with confusion.
In the past, the two brothers had fought human powerhouses before.
Those Spirit Douluos and Titled Douluos who craved their spirit rings and Soul Bones would challenge them alone, even if they didn’t feel confident about fighting one of them or the Great Ape.
Although they knew those humans had impure motives, as long as they weren’t after the spirit ring or Soul Bone of their beloved Sister Xiao Wu, the two brothers would tacitly follow the unspoken rule of a 1v1 ‘real man’ battle.
This rule applied not only to the Spirit Master’s world but also to the Spirit Beast world.
In a Spirit Beast tribe, if one wanted to become the true king, they needed to defeat the old king with genuine strength under the gaze of the masses to earn the respect of their clansmen.
“Humans…
you…” The Ox-headed Serpent was so furious it wanted to say something, but limited by its nature as a beast, it found itself at a loss for words.
Flapping the wings on his back, Qian Xunji flew in front of the Ox-headed Serpent with a smug expression, admiring their prey.
“You’d better behave for this seat, otherwise, I don’t know what we might do to that stupid rabbit that escaped.” Hearing this, the Ox-headed Serpent was so enraged that two pillars of thick smoke billowed from its nostrils.
The Ox-headed Serpent felt that in all its years of living, it had never seen such a shameless human.
Not a shred of the poise expected of a powerhouse!
Qian Xunji’s words could be said to have firmly grasped the Ox-headed Serpent’s weakness.
It completely extinguished its plan to try and take down one or two human powerhouses with the power of its self-detonation.
Almost at the same time, the battered Great Ape was held in the mouth of the massive Golden Crocodile King transformed from Gold Crocodile Douluo, clearly looking more dead than alive.
The ‘Golden Crocodile King’ tossed its massive crocodile head.
Boom— The Great Ape’s massive body was thrown at Qian Xunji’s feet, kicking up a large cloud of dust.
“Uncle Jin, thank you for your trouble.” “It’s nothing, Saint.
That good stuff you gave me to eat is truly excellent; I had only just finished warming up when this beast couldn’t take it anymore.” Facing Qian Xunji’s thanks, Gold Crocodile Douluo just waved his hand casually, indicating there was no need to mind.
The battle with the Great Ape was a total suppression from beginning to end; he hadn’t even gotten serious before the fight was over.
To describe the entire battle in four words—barely a speck of dust!
Qian Xunji used the same rhetoric to warn the Great Ape, and a human-like expression of rage actually appeared on the latter’s face.
“Big brother, we’ve really lost this time.” The Great Ape sent a message to the Ox-headed Serpent.
Its massive ape eyes looked toward the direction where Xiao Wu had last left, filled with lingering attachment.
However, if such a situation happened again, it would still unhesitatingly sacrifice its life for its beloved Sister Xiao Wu.
“Old Second, I’m very happy to have been brothers with you in this life.
Since they want spirit rings and Soul Bones, let’s give them to them.
This is the last thing we can do for Sister Xiao Wu.” The two brothers had actually discussed the matter of death long ago.
They had indeed been tempted by the recruitment offers from the Vicious Beasts of the Great Desolate Land.
But their Sister Xiao Wu could not go with them because of her Bloodline.
Not to mention that in the eyes of those beast kings, Transformed Spirit Beasts were seen as traitors to their own race.
Although Transformed Spirit Beasts can condense their first six spirit rings themselves, from the seventh ring onwards, they need to hunt and absorb Spirit Beasts.
And the required age for the rings starting from the seventh is very high.
In the eyes of Di Tian and the others, those Spirit Beasts of tens of thousands or even a hundred thousand years are the pillars of the Soul Beast Clan’s revival.
Therefore, they usually kill any they find.
If they didn’t have Xiao Wu’s company in the years to come, they felt that such a life as a beast would simply have no joy in living.
The two brothers had privately decided that when Xiao Wu reached Breakthroughs to level 80 and level 90 after transforming, the two of them would respectively sacrifice themselves to become Xiao Wu’s eighth and ninth spirit rings.
Wouldn’t that be another way of being together?
Falling into this situation now was just another form of devotion to their beloved Sister Xiao Wu.
From the moment they arrived at this place until the end of the battle, Qian Xunji’s mental force had been scanning everything in the surroundings.
As a Transformed Spirit Beast, A Rou couldn’t have placed her residence too far away, otherwise those two simping beasts wouldn’t be able to ensure her safety.
Everything was just as Qian Xunji expected.
Inside a nearby karst cave, there was an aura of a rabbit similar to Xiao Wu’s.
The moment Qian Xunji locked onto A Rou’s aura, the latter immediately realized it.
However, for her right now, discovering that Xiao Wu’s aura was moving away from the area could be considered the only piece of good news.
“Madam, it’s better if you come out obediently.” “That big rabbit that just escaped should be your daughter, right?” “We need three hundred-thousand-year spirit rings to break through our realms.
I believe you wouldn’t want anything to happen to your daughter, would you, Madam?”
