Tyrant Sky Martial Soul-Chapter 2309 - 2312: Head-to-Head Clash, Monster Beasts Flee in Panic!
"Of course not, without you, it wouldn’t just be two people dead today."
Cheng Feiying nodded and said, "But don’t you need my help?"
"No need, you guys can look around nearby. There should be other Iron-Backed Thorny Beasts here, enough for you to complete your mission."
Ling Xiao shouted loudly, after all, this place was a prison cage for the Iron-Backed Thorny Beasts, and there wouldn’t be just one of them.
Just as he finished speaking, a smaller counterpart of the mutated Iron-back Thorn Beast appeared, charging at the disciples of Orange Immortal Mountain.
This time, the disciples of Orange Immortal Mountain were not as panicked as before.
Especially Cheng Feiying, who released musical notes that instantly bound the ordinary Iron-Backed Thorny Beast.
Although it was only for a moment, it allowed the disciples of Orange Immortal Mountain to regroup.
"Miss Fei Ying, let’s see who’s faster, me dealing with this fellow, or you dealing with that one first."
Ling Xiao grinned, a chilling aura of death emanated from his sharp claws.
Continuous strikes of the Netherworld Ghost Claw crashed against the claws of the mutated Iron-back Thorn Beast.
They actually forced the giant beast to retreat continuously. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
In terms of strength, Ling Xiao would never lose to such a monster.
"Ling Xiao, this time you’re bound to lose. Anyway, an ordinary Iron-Backed Thorny Beast is much weaker."
Cheng Feiying was also competitive, not wanting to always be overshadowed by Ling Xiao.
"Brothers and sisters of Orange Immortal Mountain, this time, let’s not fight for bread but for pride. We have more people, and the beast we’re facing is weaker. If we can’t defeat it earlier than others, it would be too embarrassing."
Ling Xiao laughed. Actually, the competition was just to liven up the atmosphere; there was no need to seriously compete with Cheng Feiying in such matters.
However, he truly wanted to see if he could defeat the mutated Iron-back Thorn Beast faster than the people of Orange Immortal Mountain.
"Meteor Sword Technique—Falling!"
Ling Xiao stepped forward, his figure flashed, and the longsword appeared in his right hand.
After all, the Netherworld Ghost Claw wasn’t quite proficient yet; wielding this sword technique felt better.
The heavy sword collided with the mutated Iron-back Thorn Beast again, erupting a thunderous roar.
However, this time, due to the special effect of Falling, the Iron-Backed Thorny Beast was directly knocked to the ground, and even the spikes on its back seemed to have developed tiny cracks.
The cracks were small, but having cracks meant the attack was effective.
"I want to see how many attacks you can withstand!"
Using his speed advantage, Ling Xiao performed the Moon-treading Meteor Step, his figure like a moonlit meteor, launching furious attacks on the mutated Iron-back Thorn Beast.
The sword light constantly shimmered on the Iron-Backed Thorny Beast.
The Iron-Backed Thorny Beast roared continuously in anger.
It wasn’t because of pain, but because it couldn’t catch Ling Xiao.
Of course, it wasn’t easy for Ling Xiao to hurt it either.
The defense of the Iron-Backed Thorny Beast was indeed solid, especially when it fully utilized the beast’s power for defense.
Ling Xiao’s attacks seemed to struggle to break through its defense.
"With Ling Xiao’s speed, he should be safe. I can focus on dealing with the ordinary Iron-Backed Thorny Beast in front of me."
Cheng Feiying was still very concerned about Ling Xiao. After all, if it weren’t for Ling Xiao earlier, she would’ve been severely injured by the mutated Iron-back Thorn Beast, if not dead.
Seeing that Ling Xiao was not in danger at the moment, she breathed a slight sigh of relief and planned to team up with the Orange Immortal Mountain brothers and sisters to take down the ordinary Iron-Backed Thorny Beast in front of them before going to help out.
"Listen up, everyone, focus on dealing with this ordinary Iron-Backed Thorny Beast first, then we’ll help Ling Xiao. You don’t have any objections, right?"
Cheng Feiying turned around and asked.
"No!"
Although some people were still reluctant, they had to admit that if it weren’t for Ling Xiao holding off the mutated Iron-back Thorn Beast earlier, not only Cheng Feiying but they wouldn’t have survived either.
Remembering their previous mockery and ridicule of Ling Xiao, everyone felt a bit uncomfortable inside.
"Could the sect’s judgment be completely wrong?"
Many disciples of Orange Immortal Mountain began to doubt the sect’s assessment of Ling Xiao.
In fact, for martial artists like Ling Xiao, dealing with powerful but clumsy monsters was the simplest because of his speed.
Besides, the strength and resilience of his body were not inferior to the Iron-Backed Thorny Beast, perhaps even stronger!
Seeing the sword technique being ineffective.
Ling Xiao showed a faint cold smile, and crimson magma light suddenly flashed over his body.
His whole body seemed to be wrapped in a layer of magma battle armor, not only looking more handsome and impressive than before.
But his fighting power also suddenly soared tremendously.
This was the real benefit!
Magma Power had already integrated into every cell of Ling Xiao; as long as he circulated his inner strength and willed it, he could unleash it.
The Yin-Yang Elemental Force in his entire body turned crimson, transforming into a viscous liquid.
Touching the enemy could burn them.
Now he was using only the Primary Magma Battle Body.
For now, dealing with this Iron-Backed Thorny Beast didn’t require the use of the Intermediate Magma Battle Body.
Combined with the strong Body of the Mystic Realm and Child Divine Martial Soul Transformation, he could directly and forcefully confront the mutated Iron-back Thorn Beast without any problem.
The disciples of Orange Immortal Mountain stole a glance, almost dropping their eyes in disbelief.
Ling Xiao held a sword in his right hand, his left hand formed into a fearsome sharp claw.
Just like that, he engaged in a head-on collision with the Iron-Backed Thorny Beast, completely unyielding in the face of strength.
If someone had said such a thing before, they would’ve thought that person was crazy. How could a disciple of Lower Baxian Mountain have such ability?
But now, it was all in front of their eyes.
In the confrontation with the Iron-Backed Thorny Beast, Ling Xiao held the upper hand.
On the contrary, the Iron-Backed Thorny Beast accumulated more and more wounds, occasionally letting out angry roars.
Ling Xiao, however, fought with increasing courage and strength.
He finally put away the heavy sword altogether.
Engaging in bare-handed combat.
Because he realized that in fighting the Iron-Backed Thorny Beast, the energy transformed from the Blood-sucking Demonic Beast inside his body seemed to have become easier to control.
He had grown stronger.
The red-birthmark pretty boy who previously mocked and said he would never help Ling Xiao was now trembling in the autumn wind.
He was scared!
Afraid that after Ling Xiao defeated the mutated Iron-back Thorn Beast, he would come to settle accounts.
"I think the sect must have been misled by slander. With Ling Xiao’s strength, killing that Demon Envoy isn’t surprising at all."
Gradually, some disciples of Orange Immortal Mountain began to change their views on Ling Xiao.
Although such views hold little significance for Ling Xiao, nobody likes being constantly criticized.
Ling Xiao is no different.
He certainly wishes to gain others’ recognition and admiration.
After all, he is Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty Empire, which is especially important.
As a ruler, one must always possess an awe-inspiring might that commands submission.
