Chapter 438 Fierce Battle with Xiang Liu
However, Xiangliu's venom was not meant for attack. Just as the venom reached the group, a series of explosions suddenly erupted from it, and the venom transformed into a vast expanse of green poisonous mist, enveloping the group.
"Purification Barrier." A pale blue light barrier formed around them, successfully blocking the poisonous fog outside. After casting the spell, Guo Shiyi said, "This poisonous fog contains powerful spiritual energy. Combined with its toxicity and corrosiveness, my purification ability cannot completely resist its erosion; it can only reduce its toxicity. Everyone must be careful."
She added, "In this poisonous fog, the Purification Barrier consumes a lot of spiritual energy. Every second we stay here increases the risk, so the battle cannot drag on for too long. We must defeat the enemy quickly."
"I understand. Don't worry, we'll attack together and we'll definitely be able to finish the battle quickly," Qin Xiaochuan said.
After Qin Xiaochuan finished speaking, he discussed the matter with the others in the mental space. Then Han Kexin pulled the trigger and fired a Wind God Cannon. At the same time, the originally clear sky suddenly turned into a dark cloud, with countless lightning bolts flashing. A thunderclap resounded through the sky, followed by nine bright bolts of lightning that tore through the sky and fell rapidly down onto Xiang Liu.
At this moment, Qin Xiaochuan's spiritual space had been fully expanded. Just as he sensed Xiang Liu gathering spiritual power to resist the lightning strike, he immediately released a powerful spiritual energy towards him. As his spiritual energy was released, Xiang Liu's movements paused for a moment. At that very moment, the nine bolts of heavenly lightning summoned by Kaiming struck Xiang Liu simultaneously.
"Boom!" A tremendous roar resounded throughout the universe. Silver lightning bolts darted wildly around Xiang Liu, and the paralyzing power carried by the lightning froze Xiang Liu in mid-air, unable to move.
"Qin Xiaochuan, hurry, now's the time," Kaiming reminded him from the side.
Qin Xiaochuan had already formed his hand seals and coldly shouted, "Flaming Dragon Soaring to the Heavens!" A huge fire dragon, spewing Samadhi True Fire, roared and charged towards Xiang Liu. Just as the fire dragon was about to reach Xiang Liu, a body of water that was initially transparent but gradually turned into a faint green appeared in front of the fire dragon. The body of water was initially just a small point, but it quickly gathered and transformed into a huge water python in a moment. The water python opened its huge mouth 180 degrees and swallowed the fire dragon directly. The fire dragon was wrapped by the water python and made a series of explosions inside, but it was still unable to break through the water python's defensive range.
Qin Xiaochuan's gaze passed over Xiang Liu and saw a floating figure behind him holding a black water spear with a gloomy expression. Clearly, the skill just now was the work of this floating figure.
Just then, Xiang Liu recovered from the paralysis caused by the lightning. As expected of an ancient ferocious god, even though his strength had not fully recovered to its peak, he managed to withstand Kai Ming's full-force attack without showing any signs of serious injury. Instead, he became ferocious, and his nine snake heads simultaneously raised their heads and roared to the sky. Then, his neck suddenly grew longer and longer, and the nine snake heads transformed into nine giant pythons capable of fighting independently. They then launched a series of attacks on Qin Xiaochuan and the others.
Xiang Liu is incredibly powerful and can continuously spew venom. Under the simultaneous attack of the nine heads, even Qin Xiaochuan, who has been through countless battles, found it difficult to cope. He could only rely on his perception ability in his mental space to constantly dodge and weave through Xiang Liu's relentless attacks, while also helping Han Kexin resolve crises from time to time, before launching his own attack on Xiang Liu during the gaps in his defense.
Fortunately, as the battle dragged on, Qin Xiaochuan gained a better understanding of Xiang Liu's attack patterns, and his telepathic abilities slowly resurfaced. With the ability to anticipate the opponent's attacks, he gradually found the battle more manageable, and his attacks on Xiang Liu became more frequent. At this rate, it wouldn't be long before he gained the upper hand in the battle.
Just as Qin Xiaochuan was brimming with confidence, a sense of crisis suddenly overwhelmed him. They didn't know when, but a small patch of water had formed around them. The water was spreading rapidly, and by the time Qin Xiaochuan and the others noticed, it had already surrounded them and continued to expand, quickly trapping them completely. Most terrifyingly, the water was like a viscous glue, with extremely strong adhesive properties. Enveloped in the water, they felt as if they were being sucked in, making every movement extremely difficult and sluggish, like watching a slow-motion movie.
"Damn it." Qin Xiaochuan couldn't help but mutter to himself. He hadn't expected that Fuyou to be such a treacherous person. The current situation had put him in a very passive position.
The current situation of the group presented Xiang Liu with an excellent opportunity. Sure enough, the next second Qin Xiaochuan sensed that he was about to launch a fatal attack on the group. Xiang Liu's nine snake heads simultaneously sprayed venom into the sky, and then the venom turned into poisonous rain that fell continuously from the sky.
Qin Xiaochuan knew he couldn't escape, so he had no choice but to use his spiritual power to activate the Qilin Armor. In the past few days, he had upgraded the Qilin Armor, so that while his whole body was covered in cyan armor, he could also form a spiritual power protective shield around him. Guo Shiyi also used her tough willow branches to form a defensive barrier around them.
Poisonous rain continued to fall from the sky. Xiang Liu's attacks were truly formidable. Even with Qin Xiaochuan and Guo Shiyi's current strength, their defensive skills were slowly corroding and collapsing under the attack of the poisonous rain. Fortunately, Qin Xiaochuan could continuously provide spiritual energy to the spiritual energy shield, and they eventually managed to overcome this crisis. However, they were in a rather disheveled state. If Xiang Liu launched a few more attacks, they would probably not be able to escape their fate.
While Qin Xiaochuan was resisting the poisonous rain, he and Guo Shiyi held hands and once again circulated the Yin-Yang power within their bodies. Then, they used this Yin-Yang power to circulate the waters that had trapped them. Under the control of their Yin-Yang power, the waters quickly flowed away from them, and the group was finally able to escape from their predicament.
"These two guys on the other side don't seem so easy to deal with," Guo Shiyi said. Although the group had temporarily escaped their predicament, it had taken a lot of effort, and they had used almost all the skills they could. Judging from the current situation, defeating both of them at the same time would not be an easy task.
"Not bad. The enemy has one in the open and one in the shadows, one in control and the other in attack. They work together seamlessly, and there are almost no weaknesses in their combined attack. It seems we need to change our approach," Qin Xiaochuan pondered.
"What are your thoughts?" Guo Shiyi asked.
"We should divide the battlefield, separate the two of them, and defeat them one by one. It seems that the floating one is better at control and is not good at head-on combat. We can defeat him first, and then it will be much easier to deal with Xiang Liu," Qin Xiaochuan analyzed. Kaiming led them to dodge Xiang Liu's skills in the air. They were currently focusing on defense and had hardly launched any attacks.
