Chapter 115: Ruindemon Flood Dragon and Lunapython (1/2)
The two waiting attackers immediately attacked after they received Bai Xiaofei’s signal. Of the two, Wang Hang reacted more quickly. He activated the Shadowflash Shoes and instantly appeared above the python. Powered by the dao of assassins, he transformed into a high-speed spinning drill. Simultaneously, the tip of his Spiral Sword glowed with a violet radiance representing the dao of assassins.
Wang Hang had full confidence in his attack. Unfortunately, the golden radiance surrounding the python stopped the attack the moment it landed. The supposedly laughable shield didn't vanish like it was supposed to. Instead, it turned out to be resilient enough to stop Wang Hang's advance.
With a vicious glint in its eyes, the python head responsible for defense glared at Wang Hang. This was the same head at which Wang Hang had aimed his attack. The head opened its mouth wide in Wang Hang’s direction, looking as if it intended to swallow him whole.
Because he knew his attack had failed, Wang Hang decisively ended his assassination technique. He redirected his origin energy into his Shadowflash Shoes and flickered out of the python’s line of sight.
Although he knew that continuously activating the Shadowflash Shoes would drain his origin energy at more than twice the usual rate, he had no choice. He could sense that death was very possible if he stayed any longer.
Following Wang Hang’s failed attack, Lin Li’s crescent radiant slash arrived. The recently obtained Thousand Star increased the integration and malleability of her Divine Phoenix Feather Dress’s attribute energy. This in turn allowed her to unleash various types of attacks.
She launched a sharp attack. It unfortunately ended the same way as Wang Hang’s. The moment the radiant slash had touched the golden shield, it had lost all power, and the shield had slowly ground the slash into nothingness.
This sight had dumbfounded everyone. Both Wang Hang’s assassination abilities and Lin Li’s Thousand Star were capable of inflicting more damage than Fang Ye’s and Xing Nan’s attacks. Moreover, Lin Li was a Master Rank. Therefore, the Savage Class had a hard time accepting this result.
It wasn’t as if they were novices who knew nothing about the Goldsilver Twin-headed Python. The current situation had far surpassed what they had been prepared for. A Goldsilver Twin-headed Python would definitely not have that golden shield ability.
Xue Ying, rushing towards them, quickly proved this.
“Everyone, leave immediately. Run as fast as you can! That’s not a Goldsilver Twin-headed Python!” she howled, and she clenched her hands so tightly that they started shaking. If her guess was correct, they would be lucky to survive today.
Most of the Savage Class members acted immediately upon hearing Xue Ying’s orders. Disobeying her at a time like this was no different from screwing her over. Bai Xiaofei and Mo Ka, however, remained still.
Bai Xiaofei stayed behind because he had no intention of fleeing. Xue Ying’s reaction hadn’t been this intense even during the encounter with the King Rank magical beast. Although they had been beaten up quite miserably back then, their attacks had still been effective to a certain extent.
Xue Ying’s current reaction proved only one thing: this magical beast was not one she could handle. If that was the case, it didn’t make a difference who stayed behind. In fact, if it was him, he might be able to buy them more time.
Mo Ka remained only because his Floating Blade was still high up in the air. It wasn’t that he couldn’t bear to part with the Floating Blade but that he genuinely wanted to help. The Floating Blade had been gathering origin energy since the start of the battle. Once all the conditions were met, his attack could very well surpass Wang Hang’s. Even a King Rank magical beast would find it difficult to deal with.
Moreover, Mo Ka already understood why everyone’s attack had been ineffective. It was due to the golden radiance surrounding the python! As far as he was concerned, so long as the golden radiance was gone, he would be able to inflict a serious injury to the unknown magical beast.
“Mo Ka, get the hell out of here!”
