I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 192 - 7: Humanoid Er Tu (1/3)
Bang!
After dodging two bullets in succession.
The Third Prince ultimately couldn’t avoid Li Jingshu’s third predictive shot.
Poof!
When that bullet pierced through the Third Prince’s shoulder blade.
Realizing the crisis, he hesitated almost not at all, transforming his arms into dragon claw form to shield his head.
Boom!
Thus, roaring celestial thunder instantly struck down.
Even with dragon scales protecting him, the Third Prince still felt a tingling numbness all over, as if every cell within him was protesting.
And this was still a result of the Third Prince’s extraordinary physique.
If it were any other gods, being hit by such celestial thunder, they’d be crippled if not dead.
However, the Third Prince seemed unconcerned with this, instead roaring angrily at the Flower Mantis.
"Flower Mantis, when did I ever order you to make a move!?"
At this moment, the Flower Mantis was still launching a fierce attack on Li Jingshu.
With lightning-fast dual blades aimed directly at Li Jingshu’s vital spots every time.
Forcing her, lacking much combat experience, to adopt an entirely defensive posture.
Fortunately, Li Jingshu had the Body-Protecting Gang Qi on her.
The Flower Mantis’s dual blades couldn’t actually cause real harm to her.
Even if occasionally using the Overlapping Blade Technique to hit the same spot and forcibly break through the Body-Protecting Gang Qi’s defense.
The Red Skin Fur Robe on Li Jingshu also let the Flower Mantis fully experience what "counter-damage" meant.
Clang! Clang!
Li Jingshu only needed to hold her ground with great strength and not retreat.
Due to the counter-shock of the Red Skin Fur Robe, small nicks appeared on the Flower Mantis’s dual blades, shocking him so much he didn’t dare to attack rashly again.
Of course, the serious warning from the Third Prince might have been another reason.
"Flower Mantis, this is my battlefield!"
"You’re just the bodyguard my father sent to protect me; you aren’t qualified to fight for me!"
The pride within made the Third Prince extremely furious.
He simply couldn’t accept that he had been thwarted by a mere mortal.
"Third Prince, we have to go."
Casually retreating to the Third Prince’s side, the Flower Mantis spoke in a low voice.
"Leave?"
Hearing this from the Flower Mantis, the Third Prince was first stunned, then glared in disbelief and reprimanded him.
"You mean I got hit by a celestial thunder for nothing, and then just run away without doing anything?"
The Third Prince came here with a mission, determined to open the river leading to the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.
Because his elder brothers were making breakthroughs towards the Hundred Lands Mountain Range from other directions.
The three brothers each focused on attacking a different direction.
Essentially, there was somewhat of a rivalry for favor and power involved.
As a result, he hadn’t made any progress yet, and got hit by celestial thunder right from the start.
The Flower Mantis sent by his father to assist him was advising him to leave, inevitably making the Third Prince somewhat suspicious of ulterior motives.
"If it were just Lord Tingyao and this human girl, we certainly wouldn’t have to leave."
"But what if it’s not just them?"
Saying this, the Flower Mantis looked up at the sky, his gaze fixed on the pitch-black clouds.
"I think... this time we’ve bitten off more than we can chew."
It was as if in response to the Flower Mantis’s words.
A pitch-black claw suddenly stretched out from the clouds, then tore apart the sky full of dark clouds with one swipe.
Whoosh!
The storm halted, and warm sunlight poured through the rift onto the earth.
Immediately after, a Five-Clawed Black Dragon descended from the sky, transforming into a three-meter-tall... rabbit upon hitting the ground?
"..."
It was a tall, slender rabbit.
A crimson mark adorned its forehead.
Setting aside the initial impression of it being a "rabbit."
Judging from the structure and proportions of its body, the rabbit was remarkably similar to a human.
Only its long ears and arms hanging past its knees differed slightly from a normal human.
Yet this gave it an agile, quick, and naturally commanding presence.
"Er Tu? Why are you here?"
Surprised, Li Jingshu looked at the tall figure standing in front of her, her words successfully eliciting a slight smile from the other party.
"The prophet was still somewhat uneasy about you, so specially sent me to watch over."
Ever since coming out of the Prison Soul Tripod.
The once tiger-sized Er Tu had transformed into its current form.
According to Li Boyang, Er Tu had consumed half a divine body, exhausted so many precious herbs from him, how could it not undergo change?
As for why Er Tu ended up in this near-human form?
This could only indicate that in its subconscious, the human form was indeed more practical, hence the half-human, half-rabbit appearance.
"It seems the prophet’s concern wasn’t unfounded."
Tilting his head slightly, Er Tu gazed at the Flower Mantis opposite.
Unlike Tian Wu and the Third Prince.
Er Tu sensed a genuine threat from the Flower Mantis.
In terms of raw power and heritage, the Flower Mantis might not equal Tian Wu or the Third Prince. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
But in terms of aggressiveness and combat ability, the Flower Mantis gave Er Tu a greater sense of threat than Lord Tingyao in peak condition.
This reflects individual specialization, the true essence of the real world.
In a real world, the conventional divisions of realm and divine power don’t represent all a person’s abilities.
Everyone has their strengths and specializations.
Undoubtedly, the Flower Mantis is a warrior focused on combat, with the capability to challenge beyond its level.
Correspondingly, the Flower Mantis’s sense of crisis was equally intense.
Just as Er Tu found the Flower Mantis dangerous, the Flower Mantis also sensed a kindred presence in Er Tu.
"You thieving rabbit, is this the time for chatting!?"
While Er Tu and the Flower Mantis were carefully probing each other.
A sudden angry shout from the floodwaters not far away came from Lord Tingyao, accompanied by a huge boulder being hurled over.
However, this time Lord Tingyao’s target was not the Flower Mantis or the Third Prince, but Er Tu.
Because during Li Boyang’s capture of Lord Tingyao, Er Tu played a crucial role.
In Lord Tingyao’s mind, this shape-shifting, notoriously cunning thieving rabbit, even surpassed Li Boyang, the mountain prophet, in warranting hatred.
"You fool... we’re on the same side now!"
Never expecting Lord Tingyao to attack him at this time.
Er Tu was first briefly stunned, then, with a look of resignation, he grabbed Li Jingshu and swiftly dodged aside.
Boom!
When the boulder crashed down, the earth instantly split open, and dust soared into the sky.
Seizing this rare opportunity, the Flower Mantis, also briefly stunned, decisively chose to launch a fierce attack.
