Tumor Sword Immortal

Chapter 149 The Deceit of Beasts

Changsun Yu's teleportation technique had almost no fluctuations in spiritual power. Back then, on the Qingfeng Sword Testing Platform, Pei Xia was tricked and stabbed by his sword.

However, even as the spike was about to pierce its eye, Pei Xia's solemn gaze showed no sign of relaxation.

In an extremely brief moment, so brief that Han Youzhi couldn't even perceive it, the monster retracted its two long legs and placed them in front of its head.

A dull thud echoed once again.

The long nail was knocked back, and the mission was unsuccessful.

Below, Han Youzhi felt a sweet taste in her throat. She clenched her teeth and swallowed the blood.

Beneath her torn dress from the fierce battle, her full breasts heaved violently. Such a full-force attack was a burden on the body, not to mention having to withstand the spiritual energy backlash from the other side.

Her originally charming face was now covered in sweat, but the outcome of the attack just now still brought a hint of joy to her eyes.

She turned to look at Pei Xia, about to say something, but saw him staring at the demonic beast with a look of complete understanding.

That attack, which should have been impossible to dodge, was reacted to in countless split seconds; this kind of superhuman power... he was all too familiar with it.

Indeed, if one wants to use silk threads to control a cultivator's use of spiritual power and magical artifacts, it is impossible to break away from the foundation of computing power.

Even if it is a demonic beast.

Across the entire hall, Pei Xia stared at the intelligent beast. In its eight eyes, Pei Xia saw flickering scarlet flames!

"Make your move, continue!"

Pei Xia's voice came, and Han Youzhi did not hesitate at all. Suppressing the pain of her torn spiritual energy, Han Youzhi waved her snow-white arm, and the magic weapon nail flew towards the spider monster above again.

The demonic beast roared from afar. This time, its eight eyes were not fixed on Han Youzhi's magic weapon, but were fixed on Pei Xia.

Pei Xia spoke up: "Prove my supernatural powers."

Almost simultaneously, the monster also let out a sharp cry.

The spiritual energy was instantly extracted the moment it was about to sever the space.

This demonic beast is using the computational power granted by its inner fire, along with its own superior spiritual power, to dismantle Pei Xia's magic!

It worked.

The warp was thwarted, and the spikes slammed into its sturdy carapace with a resounding crash.

The eight eyes, which had just revealed an extremely human-like smugness, immediately vanished when they looked at Pei Xia.

Pei Xia's lips moved slightly; he had already finished reciting his second sentence.

This time, he still said, "Prove my supernatural powers."

His immense inner spiritual power, combined with the exaggerated computational power granted by the Calamity Pig, caused dozens of thick black wisps to burst forth from the shadow beneath his feet the instant his spell succeeded.

Instead of chasing the spider-like monsters on the dome, the black mist scattered and flew towards Ye Lu, who was engaged in a fierce battle.

Ye Lu's situation is also extremely critical at this moment.

Even though he knew his enemy well, he was still struggling to resist when surrounded. In the short time it took Han Youzhi to throw out long nails, he had already been injured one after another.

On the other hand, those skeletons, not only are they incredibly tough, but they are also fearless. Even if you cut off their hands, feet, and heads with your sword, it will not stop them from continuing to rush towards their opponents.

Just as Ye Lu was struggling to hold on and was already prepared to fight to the death, dozens of black wisps flew over.

Instead of clinging to the long-dead skeletons, the black mist coiled around the tops of the skeletons and began to frantically devour the invisible threads!

In a short while, the Soul-Devouring Black Qi devoured all the spiritual energy in these threads, and the once menacing dead lay motionless on the ground once more.

Ye Lu gasped for breath and turned to look at Pei Xia.

The monster's most relied-upon method has been cracked, and it seems that the situation has been reversed?
not at all.

Pei Xia's body was trembling at a very subtle frequency. Neither Ye Lu nor Han Youzhi noticed.

Only Lu Li noticed. She stared at Pei Xia's increasingly pale face, especially his eyes, her small face full of worry.

But there was nothing she could do at that moment. She could only lean against Pei Xia and keep repeating his name: "Pei Xia, Pei Xia, Pei Xia..."

After three spells, Pei Xia seemed to feel the monstrous creature in his mind emitting dreamlike laughter. Those wild roars were like a storm sweeping across the sea. In the crashing waves, those names repeated over and over were his only rope.

He bit his lip until it bled. The pain didn't make him any more awake, but the act itself served as a cue to wake up.

He cannot fall down yet.

This demonic beast is indeed at a very high level; its peak strength has definitely reached the Heavenly Consciousness realm.

But looking back on all the details of its journey since escaping from the underground river, Pei Xia was almost certain that it was extremely weak at this moment, and all the strength it displayed was just a facade.

This is why he was so certain that, apart from its naturally powerful back armor due to its realm and physique, its head could never withstand a magic weapon from the Transformation Realm.

Imagine a demon beast that rivals the Heavenly Consciousness, possesses inner fire and advanced intelligence—what level of existence would it be in the outside world?

Even in the snowy mountains of Hanzhou, it has to make way for it.

But what kind of environment is this underground palace? The spiritual energy is so thin that it's unimaginable. Even with the meticulous cultivation of human cultivators, such as the inner cauldron and spiritual palace, they can't extract even a few strands of spiritual energy. Wouldn't the demon beasts be even more unable to continue?

Then why does it still stay here?
Guarding the secret treasure? Protecting the remains? If that were the case, it wouldn't have deliberately used the inner core demon crystal to lure Pei Xia and the others here.

The only explanation is that it doesn't want to stay; it just can't get out.

Regardless of how it got here, one thing is certain: it must have gone a long time without eating enough and without spiritual energy to recover. This is what attracted Pei Xia and the others to come here.

It wants to eat meat.

This guy uses darkness, manipulates cultivators, sets up bait, and even relies on the strength of his physical armor to create an illusion, all to conceal his weakened state.

The cunning of beasts, amplified by the fire of their hearts, has surpassed that of many humans.

Fortunately, Pei Xia was not to be outdone.

"One more time, Lao Han!"

He could no longer hear Han Youzhi and Ye Lu's shouts, nor could he hear the words he was saying; all he could hear were the frenzied roars of the monstrous beasts.

Han Youzhi vaguely sensed that Pei Xia was acting strangely, but at this moment, she didn't have time to think about it. She controlled the long nail that had just flown back, risking damage to her meridians, and once again exerted all her strength to activate her spiritual palace.

The long spike shot out through the air!

Human eyes and spider eyes stared at each other across the distance. At the same time as Pei Xia "proved my supernatural powers", the huge monster roared ferociously.

The magic has been disintegrated once again!
However, the same scene happened again. The moment the previous spell was dispelled, Pei Xia had already unleashed his second supernatural power.

"Prove my divine power!"

This time, there was no black aura, nor any long nails.

The space trembled slightly and emitted a clear, melodious hum.

"biu!"

The enormous monster clinging to the rock wall and dome suddenly vanished.

Just as Han Youzhi and Ye Lu were astonished, a huge body with a foul stench landed heavily in front of Pei Xia!
Below the eight eyes, the gaping maw was less than a foot away from Pei Xia's nose.

Pear was so frightened that she jumped up and down, clinging to Pei Xia's leg and trembling: "Pei Xia, Pei Xia, Pei Xia, Pei Xia!"

Despite the excruciating pain in his head, Pei Xia lunged forward before the monster could react.

Then it raised its head and rammed it into its furry skull!
