Chapter 44: Years of Thunder Bear

"hiss--"

"Roar--"

At this moment, Li Xingyi suddenly discovered a problem.

It seems that the lightning-type Thunder War Bear cannot defeat the Mandrake Snake!

Although the Wild Thunder War Bear and the Mandragora Snake both belong to high-level soul beasts with "combat power higher than their age limit", the former is severely restrained by the Mandragora Snake.

In order to have stronger and more absolute thunder, the Crazy Thunder War Bear Clan gave up all kinds of resistance in their bodies and instead stored the terrifying power of thunder.

This caused the venom of the mandrake snake to have a doubled impact on him.

From the surface, the body of the Mandrake Snake was covered with visible bloody wounds and flying scales, but it showed an increasingly crazy desire to attack.

On the other hand, the Thunder War Bear.

Its movements were becoming slower and slower, and the damage caused by its attacks was decreasing; it was obvious that the venom was beginning to take effect.

"This is how to do ah?"

Li Xingyi muttered to himself, feeling confused.

If one wants to absorb a soul ring, the soul master must kill the soul beast himself.

Judging from the current situation, he will most likely need to end it before the Thunder War Bear dies.

But compared to the soul beasts, they hate humans more, and it is very likely that two beasts will attack Li Xingyi.

Relying on the power of [Nothingness], Li Xingyi can only ensure that he can defeat one. If he is caught in two, he will be in great danger.

After all, the only enhancement of his current [Nothingness] state is ignoring defense. In addition, he is only level 40, so it is a bit unrealistic to want to fight two such high-level soul beasts.

Although the two soul beasts were seriously injured, soul beasts are different from humans. At this time, people's idea is to run and avoid danger.

But soul beasts are different.

They are thinking about how to perish together!!

"Roar--"

Suddenly, the Thunder War Bear let out a long roar that pierced the sky, scaring all the soul beasts living nearby and making them flee in all directions.

The blue lightning around him gradually turned purple.

As a person with the same thunder attribute, Li Xingyi could clearly feel how terrifying this thunder was.

This is the 'Wild Thunder' that the Wild Thunder War Bear clan obtained by sacrificing their resistance. Although its attributes cannot reach the extreme, its power is definitely comparable!

These violent thunders are usually densely distributed throughout the body.

And since it has used this move, it proves that it is ready to die together with the enemy. This is the final self-sacrificing attack!
The purple lightning quickly gathered towards the right palm and soon enveloped its entire right palm.

"hiss--"

The Mandrake Snake immediately sensed the danger and continuously sprayed poisonous mist towards the Thunder War Bear's eyes.

But at such a close distance, even without the need for eyes, there was no way this palm would miss.

The Mandrake Snake quickly retracted its tail that was wrapped around the Thunder War Bear, then curled up into a ball, burying its head and internal organs deep inside.

It relies on poison to suppress the Thunder War Bear. It dares not fight the opponent physically and can only choose this way to protect itself.

hack--

Click! !

The moment the bear's paw hit the body of the mandragora snake, the violent lightning attached to it exploded rapidly, like countless lightning snakes drilling into the body of the mandragora snake through the wound.

boom--

The thunder exploded, causing dazzling lightning, which instantly hit the grass and trees within a hundred meters around, causing a high-temperature combustion.

After the lightning dissipated, the surroundings were in ruins. The grass on the ground was gone, and only the burning trunks of the trees remained.

As for the Mandrake snake, its entire body was burnt brown, and the tail that was blocking the outermost layer was even cooked.

"roar~"

The Thunder Bear let out a weak roar, and then fell to the ground. As the thunder in its body instantly rushed out of its body, its meridians were shattered. If it killed the opponent, it could still gradually recover with the advantage of its race.

But if it fails to kill the opponent, then it will surely die, because it has no ability to resist and cannot even crawl two steps.

Just then, a voice broke the silence.

"hiss--"

Although the sound was very small and seemed weak, it was no surprise that the mandrake snake survived the attack.

The outer part of its tail has been completely destroyed.

But the next second, it used its head to push away its broken tail and crawled out, its bloody mouth open with two sharp and long fangs, ready to kill the Thunder War Bear.

Seeing this, Li Xing, who was sitting on a tree trunk 150 meters away, felt something was wrong.

A loud shout: "Save the bear!"

After saying that, Li Xingyi summoned [Nothingness] and instantly activated the power of [Void], driving his entire body to fly away.

"hiss--"

Hearing the shouting, the Mandrake Snake looked up in the direction of Li Xingyi. It indeed could not understand human language, but it was not deaf. How could it not be alert when it heard the voices of other creatures in the forest?

Then it saw a creature approaching quickly.

Seeing that the person coming was a soul master, the Mandragora Snake hurriedly let go of the Thunder War Bear in front of it, and used all its strength to drag its broken tail to the back of a tree trunk more than ten meters away.

Only half of his head was exposed and he was looking at Li Xingyi.

The mandrake snake is a typical viper in appearance. Its vertical pupils and triangular mouth that opens backwards fully illustrate what insidiousness and cunning are.

It was obvious that the mandrake snake didn't really want to escape.

"Tsk - you still dare to make plans after all this?"

With a sigh, Li Xing stabbed the Thunder Bear in the chest with his knife.
Roar--

After the last low roar, the Wild Thunder War Bear died completely, and black energy emerged from its corpse and gradually formed a soul ring.

Li Xingyi, holding [Wu], took the initiative to walk towards the direction of the Mandragora Snake.

He wouldn't dare to absorb the soul ring unless he killed the Mandrake Snake.

"Third soul skill, spiritual detection! Second soul skill, thunder!"

Li Xingyi first activated his third soul skill to ensure that he could get close to dodge the mandala snake's attack, and then activated his second soul skill to further improve his attack capability.

The Mandrake snake seems to be born cunning. It does not have very high intelligence, but it can make the best decision in this situation.

It ignored Li Xingyi's pursuit and quickly retreated.

However, with its half-broken tail dragging, it couldn't go any faster and was soon caught up by Li Xingyi.

Li Xingyi jumped up into the air with all his might.

"The dusk rain will eventually fall!!"

As he swung his knife, a terrifying red knife light flew towards the Mandragora Snake.

"hiss--"

The red blade light instantly cut the connection between the head and body of the Mandrake Snake like cutting through the air. The head fell to the ground with a thud and rolled several times on the ground before stopping.

Li Xingyi also fell back to the ground at this time and faded away from [Nothingness].

As he used it more and more, he no longer had to go into an uncomfortable period of weakness as before.

The head and body of the mandrake snake were separated, but its movements did not stop and became even more crazy.

Its body twisted wildly, lashing the surroundings indiscriminately like a whip; its head opened and closed frantically, and even if it accidentally bit the soil on the ground, it would immediately inject poison.

This is a snake creature!
Even after two days of death, its head can still subconsciously bite nearby creatures and inject poison. This is why soul masters bury the heads of snake soul beasts after hunting them.

"Huh~ Done, now I'm going back to absorb the spirit ring."
