Ghost Pillar.
Mingxi sighed inwardly, as expected of a special Transcendent creature evolved from Dark Stone, it even knows a skill like Ghost Pillar.
Ghost Pillar, a Ghost-type Heavenly-Rank skill, is a movable pillar controlled by the pet beast. This pillar can not only serve as a supply station for the pet beast but also as a safe haven for the pet beast to rest temporarily.
The Ghost Pillar itself can defend against all non-physical attacks, including mental attacks.
Don't think that physical attacks can severely damage the Ghost Pillar; its defense capability is at the super-metal steel level.
And when serving as a pet beast's safe haven, the Ghost Pillar cannot move.
"Heavy Punch."
Mingxi's command was still very timely.
But—
"Clang!"
Bright Crystal's big forehead directly collided with the Ghost Pillar, like a broken-down car with failed brakes.
Mingxi: "..."
Fortunately, although its head was buzzing, Mingxi's command still entered Bright Crystal's dull brain, and it almost reflexively threw a punch.
"Boom!"
The fist, the size of a small sandbag, heavily struck the Ghost Pillar, emitting a piercing sonic boom.
The pillar body swayed for a moment, then was immediately moved by Shadow Rogue Duke behind Bright Crystal.
Shadow Rogue Duke's figure then merged into the Ghost Pillar.
It flickered in and out of sight between the pillars, and the shadows constantly dripping from the brim of its top hat formed small black puddles on the ground.
It cowered inside the Ghost Pillar, the red light in its eyes flickering, as if calculating the best time to attack.
"Boom! Boom!"
Bright Crystal and Rock Demon began to cooperate in heavily striking the Ghost Pillar, while Little Silver Flower had already entangled Honey Velvet Tail and Celestial Moon Spirit Fox.
At this point, Wu Luo's remaining two pet beasts were finally exposed.
One King-level Ground-type Transcendent creature, Earth Vein Titan, and one Shi-level Steel and Fighting dual-type Transcendent creature, Steel Fist Gladiator.
Mingxi silently named them: 'Macho Combo'.
These two probably intended to ambush Mingxi.
The tactic was a °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° good one, a very practical 'feint in the open, attack in secret'.
Using the three Shadow Rogue Dukes to attract their attention, making them believe they were the ones coming to ambush her, but in reality, the ones truly responsible for the ambush were the Macho Combo.
How insidious.
Unfortunately, they didn't know how amazing her Emerald Green was; when these two crept around, intending to launch a surprise attack from behind, Emerald Green had already detected them.
And took the opportunity to turn the tables.
That Steel Fist Gladiator had one arm blown off by Scarlet Jade's spear, significantly reducing its combat power.
It was a case of 'stealing a chicken but losing the rice'—a complete failure.
After that, Scarlet Jade and Black Pearl went to meet these two 'machos'.
The battle situation was initially set.
Aside from the two 'idle' Beast Tamers, this dangerous peach blossom forest was divided into four sections.
Sky battlefield, Golden Yuanbao VS Saint-level Luo Jie Luo;
The ice and snow battle directly ahead, Lan Yue and Emerald Green VS Saint-level Frost Giant Spirit;
Then, to Mingxi's left, Little Silver Flower and Bright Crystal VS Emperor-level Shadow Rogue Duke, King-level Honey Velvet Tail, and King-level Celestial Moon Spirit Fox;
Finally, to the right, Scarlet Jade and Black Pearl VS the Macho Combo.
Of course, Mingxi and Wu Luo were not idle either; with battles on all four fronts, it meant that as Beast Tamers, they needed to control four battlefields and provide accurate commands at all times.
At the same time, they also had to guard against their opponent making small moves.
She and Wu Luo both knew that battles between pet beasts would not end in a short time, and pet beasts with tenacious vitality would not die so easily.
But humans were different.
Chopping off a head would definitely end a lively little life.
So, in fact, they were the most dangerous ones.
"Crack, crack, crack, crack..."
Under Bright Crystal and Rock Demon's seamless, high-density, and coordinated physical input, Shadow Rogue Duke couldn't find an opportunity to move the Ghost Pillar and was already on the verge of collapsing.
"Blood Flower!"
Wu Luo's command cut through the heavy air.
Shadow Rogue Duke, cowering inside the Ghost Pillar, gave up its conservative stance and transformed into nine afterimages. Each shadow maintained an elegant dance posture, attacking Little Silver Flower from different angles.
They had truly mastered the art of feinting.
Blood Flower should actually be the Demon-type Heavenly-Rank skill, Bloody Waltz.
Yes.
Heavenly-Rank!
This skill is divided into three beats.
First Beat, Prelude: Each afterimage can strike different dance poses, but at the moment the action freezes, elegance turns to brutality.
Second Beat, Revolve: When the opponent is still immersed in the first beat's attack, the afterimages will begin to spin at high speed, forming a mincing machine-like offensive, and releasing a Curse the moment they injure the opponent.
Third Beat, Finale: If the opponent has not yet fallen, all afterimages will begin to overlap, condensing into a one-to-one replica of Shadow Rogue Duke. The replica has no other abilities; it simply self-destructs.
Heavenly-Rank skills are terrifying indeed.
Shadow tentacles extending from the tailcoat's hem wove a deadly net on the ground, and the white gloves transformed into sharp claws, directly aiming for Little Silver Flower's heart.
"Dragon Tail."
"Claws and Fangs." frёewebηovel.cѳm
Mingxi did not let Little Silver Flower directly confront Bloody Waltz.
It was also time for the 101 Rock Group to make their debut.
Bright Crystal was very cooperative; it activated its characteristic 【Rock Claws and Fangs】, and the tall and short, fat and thin stones nearby instantly transformed into warriors.
Little Silver Flower flicked its Dragon Tail, swatting Shadow Rogue Duke back between Bright Crystal and Rock Demon.
"Zhen Gua."
Bright Crystal used a small grappling move to grab Shadow Rogue Duke, simultaneously suppressing it with a Taishan Press.
Meanwhile, the 101 Rock Group began a direct dance-off with the nine afterimages.
"Crack."
"Boom."
..."
Toes spinning, sharp claws tearing.
The Rock Claws and Fangs were rapidly being consumed; facing these shadowy remnants, the Rock Claws and Fangs were like tofu.
Fortunately, they were numerous.
At the same time, Honey Velvet Tail let out a cute 'Gumi' sound, and its three glutinous rice ball-like bodies suddenly sprang up.
Upon reaching its highest point, it completed its combat form transformation—its fluffy fur instantly hardened into armor, and the candy crystals on its ear tips elongated into spiked knuckle dusters.
Using the acceleration of its descent, a 'Sugar-Coated Bomb' directly struck Bright Crystal's face.
Sugar-Coated Bomb is Honey Velvet Tail's racial skill, High-Rank.
Simultaneously, Celestial Moon Spirit Fox also released a skill attack towards Bright Crystal.
Intermediate-level Normal-type skill, Immobilize.
As the name suggests, getting hit by it would render one unable to move.
Bright Crystal couldn't dodge, and just as its crystal head was about to be hit by the Sugar-Coated Bomb, a stone arm suddenly extended from its side.
It was Rock Demon!
Rock Demon timely blocked the Sugar-Coated Bomb for Bright Crystal.
The thick stone arm emitted a dull thud, and its body fell to the ground, peach blossoms transforming into sharp blades, densely piercing Rock Demon all over.
And that seemingly fragile sugar crystal actually left fine cracks on the hard stone arm.
Even more troublesome, the splashing honey juice solidified at an astonishing speed, firmly gluing its arm to the ground!
