Chapter 137 - Rebellion Spirit Ascension Platform (2/2)
Tang Wulin used his Bluesilver Gra.s.s vines to part the gra.s.s in front of them and create a path, allowing them to advance slowly and carefully.
As this was their end-of-term final exam, their number one priority now was to survive. As such, hunting soul beasts was a secondary priority placed at the back of their minds.
Finding a safe area to occupy was their most important objective now.
“No signs of souls beasts at the rear or sides,” reported Zhang Yangzi.
As Tang Wulin nodded in acknowledgement, a Heavy Silver hammer appeared in his left hand with a flash of light. His right hand was empty in case he needed to use his Golden Dragon Claw.
Suddenly, a low growl came from ahead of them, announcing the arrival of a large beast as it leapt out.
It was a giant ape as tall as a human. A faintly fishy odor wafted from its ash-black furred body as it glared at them with crimson eyes.
After his first experience in the spirit ascension platform, Tang Wulin earnestly studied the various species of soul beasts. That, combined with his experiences in the spirit ascension platform, increased his understanding of soul beasts to a level incomparable with before.
With a single look, he identified this ape to be a hundred-year Ironarm Ape, a type of human-like soul beast. It was both quick and strong and possessed arms like steel. The most troublesome aspect, however, was its crowd skill, Threaten. If someone with weak spiritual power was. .h.i.t by its Threaten, then they would receive its full effect and may even lose their desire to do battle immediately. Thus, the best method of dealing with an Ironarm Ape was to strike first and gain the upper hand.
Whoos.h.!.+
Tang Wulin instantly threw his hammer, sending it flying in an arc toward the beast. As it flew through the air, Tang Wulin took large strides forward and charged. Golden scales crept up his right arm as he launched his frontal a.s.sault. As he did so, a strand of Bluesilver Gra.s.s slithered along the ground, twisting around the Ironarm Ape and binding it.
Xie Xie had also acted the moment Tang Wulin made his move. He dashed forward and stuck behind Tang Wulin. Tang Wulin grabbed one of the strands of Bluesilver Gra.s.s tied around his waist and swung it upward, launching Xie Xie into the air. Xie Xie somersaulted beautifully over the Ironarm Ape's head. His Light Dragon Dagger flas.h.i.+ng as he stabbed toward the back of the ape's head.
As a humanoid soul beast, the back of the Ironarm Ape's head was a weak point.
A pair of small fireb.a.l.l.s with faintly discernable green glows pierced through the air like arrows. This might seem unremarkable, but wind accelerated the fireball. Although the fireb.a.l.l.s may have been weak, they were blazingly fast. A silver light appeared in front of the Ironarm Ape at that moment, blocking its view of Xie Xie soaring through the air and over it.
Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue's coordination was amazing. It had reached a point where it could be said that they were a hair's width away from reaching the peak.
Zhang Yangzi and w.a.n.g Jinxi hadn't launched their own attacks. Instead, they had gathered together quickly and observed their surroundings. Even though their fusion skill hadn't yet been completed, it would still be a formidable option should they encounter a powerful foe. Their current goal was to guard against any other soul beasts that might appear while the other three took care of the Ironarm Ape.
The hundred-year Ironarm Ape could do nothing in the face of the quick little fireb.a.l.l.s; it couldn't even raise an arm in time to protect itself. All it could do was lower its head and knock them away with its hard forehead, sending sparks flying everywhere. At the same time, it swung its arm and met the Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammer head on.
Bang!
The hammer flew backward, but the Ironarm Ape had also been shaken. After all, that hammer had carried over five hundred kilograms of force. It wouldn't have been easy to receive such an attack, even if the ape had innate divine strength.
