Of course, Tianjihong didn't have time to care about this with the snake and turtle at this time. Although the guy in front of me is not that big, it can only be regarded as an ordinary turtle's body with a neck and tail that is more than a foot long. At best, it is only the size of a domestic cat, which is insignificant compared to the previous mutant soil salamander. ; However, despite the petite body of this snake and turtle, once it takes the elixir of heaven and earth like the Spirit Snake Grass and transforms into a spiritual beast, its combat power and wisdom are not the same as when it was a beast. Even if he is not as strong as a monk at the same level, it probably won't take much effort to deal with a little guy like Tianjihong who has no spiritual power. Therefore, at this time, Tianjihong only has one thought in his mind: "Escape!"
However, before his body had time to react, he could only hear the huge movement on his right gradually approaching, and the missing soil salamander under the dust in the sky finally reappeared in his field of vision. Returning to the salamander in the quagmire, the giant tail was still flapping back and forth from the left and right of its body, but now all that was rolled up on both sides was mud splashing all over the sky. The direction it was facing at this time was, of course, the position of the old rival with whom it had contended for many years by the stream; even if it could not make a sound, the Tianjihong, which was dozens of meters away, could pass through the tight and huge body of the soil salamander. and the trembling scales on his back, sensing his caution and fear when facing his old rival.
Seeing the behavior of the newt in the distance, Tianjihong certainly guessed that these two guys might have known each other for a long time. The two sides must have had conflicts here before, otherwise the land salamander, which is supposed to be lazy by nature, would never have developed such a strong sense of territory out of thin air. Thinking that when Tianjihong was searching for the mysterious fragments, he must have approached the snake and turtle's territory and alerted the opponent, so he ordered him to launch a tentative attack first to confirm the opponent's strength, and then followed his own aura to the surface. Only then did he alarm the old enemy of the soil salamander; after such a series of twists and turns, the soil salamander, which only relied on instinct to survive, probably mistakenly thought that the intruder who had just left traces in the mire and broke into his territory was also like this. Snake and turtle, that's why the former was so angry at this time.
Tianjihong also never dreamed that his plan would actually have the effect of driving away wolves and devouring tigers, causing the two enemies who were originally at peace to start a fierce battle again. In this way, he who was hiding aside It's relatively safe. However, a question that has been lingering in Tianjihong's mind is: Although this salamander is huge and powerful, the scales on its thick tail look very scary; but in fact, this guy is not close to transforming into a spiritual beast. There is indeed still a long way to go; Tianjihong had previously compared it with the fourth master who fought yesterday, and judged that even if this big guy can surpass the fourth master yesterday in terms of strength, it is obviously only too strong; and the beast has not evolved. Before, his intelligence was quite low. He would only attack based on instinct when he sensed a threat, and would not use any strategy at all. If this Salamander were to fight against yesterday's Fourth Master who was able to use martial arts, , I’m afraid I can’t say for certain whether I will win or lose. The snake turtle lying on the ground by the stream and twisting its neck is a genuine spiritual beast. Logically speaking, its strength should be far beyond what the former can compete with. Then why have these two life-and-death enemies maintained peace for so long over the years, and why didn't the snake and turtle directly get rid of the soil salamander?
With such doubts, Tian Jihong carefully looked at the appearance of both parties again, trying to analyze the strength gap between the two. However, the soil salamander in the distance no longer had this patience. Its fighting instinct prompted it to deal with the threat in front of it as soon as possible, so it rushed directly to its mortal enemy by the stream. Tianjihong was also surprised by the sudden burst of speed of this soil salamander. Although this speed cannot be compared with his own, it is already quite astonishing if compared with the slow crawling speed just now. , at least if a mortal under the same environment runs in this quagmire, the speed will be far inferior to it.
During the rapid movement, the thick salamander's tail swept the ground more and more frequently, as if it was struggling to maintain the balance of its body, but fortunately nothing went wrong. When it swayed two meters in front of the snake turtle, its tail suddenly lifted up, and a large group of sticky gray substance was sprayed out from the gap in the scales. The large-scale mucus falling from the sky covered the petite figure. The snake and turtle were directly covered in it. At this time, the latter seemed to be entangled in paste and there was no sign of breaking free in a short period of time.
Tianjihong actually knows that when facing threats, the tails of many salamanders can eject a sticky substance to hinder the enemy's movement. This liquid does not cause any damage but is extremely difficult to break free. If it is used to harass and trap the opponent in battle, To put it bluntly, this is a pretty good natal skill. Seeing that the snake turtle was using brute force to break free from the entanglement of the mucus, the soil salamander then lashed out with a tail whip to the snake turtle's forehead; the strongest part of the soil salamander's body is its tail. Most of the time when fighting enemies in close quarters, the tail is twitched to cause damage to the enemy or to tightly wrap it up and crush it. And the mutated soil salamander in front of us is even more amazing. Just looking at the thick scales on its tail, you can tell how powerful this slap with all your strength is. If you didn't know that the person standing opposite it is... If it were a real spiritual beast, Tianjihong might really be worried about the snake and turtle.
But just as he expected, as a spiritual beast with spiritual intelligence and soul consciousness enabled, Snake Turtle, how could he allow himself to be defeated by a mere beast? Its soul's awareness of the surroundings enabled it to already determine the location where the attack would land. At this moment, it suddenly stopped swinging and struggling, and flexibly retracted its neck to the left to easily dodge the fatal blow. At this time, I saw the powerful tail whip of the soil salamander hitting the mud hard, and there was a "boom" sound, causing a mud wave up to ten feet high in the center of the mud to fly out in all directions. , it was like a bomb detonated in the quagmire. However, this is only the beginning of the battle. As an old opponent of the Snake Turtle, Salamander's past experience in fighting makes him understand that his unabashed frontal offensive will hardly have any effect on his opponent; if he wants to hit As for the opponent, in addition to sneak attacks, they can only suppress the opponent with a higher attack rate and attack range, such as the previous covering of slime, making it impossible to resist even if they sense the attack position in advance.
So under the gaze of the stunned Tianjihong, the newt swung its tail at an extremely fast speed, and in a few seconds, it pulled out thirty or forty times from all directions towards the location of the snake and turtle. Tianjihong was dazzled by such a terrifying frequency of attacks, and he couldn't help but feel lucky that he hadn't acted recklessly and proactively provoked this seemingly clumsy guy, otherwise he might have been the one standing there getting beaten now; Under such a sudden attack, he had no confidence that he could react in an instant and find a way to resist such a continuous attack.
The swing of the salamander's tail left a trail of afterimages in the air. In the center of the afterimages, the snake turtle, whose movements had been affected by the previous mucus entanglement, was indeed unable to withstand it; at first, it could still dodge with its senses. It had passed some attacks, and as the frequency of the tail whip became faster and faster, it gradually began to be swept by the waving tail. After resisting several moves from the opponent, the snake turtle finally lost patience; it was about to break free of the mucus and was unwilling to endure the passive beating situation. Therefore, relying on the perception of its soul consciousness, the snake turtle saw the right moment and violently He stretched his neck and bit the twitching tail in mid-air.
It has to be said that the strength of this soil salamander is really not small. I saw the snake turtle precisely biting the skin between its tail through the fine scales, and was forcefully pulled up from the ground by the strong inertia of the swinging tail of the salamander. In mid-air. However, the latter obviously has a lot of ability. Even though he was unwilling to let go, he was not thrown far away by the newt's tail. Instead, it made the newt shake painfully with its tail tightly entangled. The scales on its tail also stood up subconsciously, and the huge salamander's tail began to swing crazily in mid-air at a speed that was slightly faster than the previous attack, intending to shake off the snake and turtle that was tightly attached to its back. fall.
At this time, the snake turtle finally showed the powerful strength of the spiritual beast. While biting the salamander's tail, the former's body finally began to release majestic spiritual power. After it had been dangling in mid-air for more than ten weeks, the liquid attached to the snake and turtle's body had been dissolved by its spiritual power, and it regained its skills again. At this time, when it reached the highest point in the sky with the salamander's tail, it suddenly let go and retracted its slender snake neck. At the same time, the thick and short turtle claws on its right front suddenly stretched out, seemingly clumsily moving towards it. The huge opponent below waved it away gently.
If it weren't for the fact that this snake turtle is a spiritual beast, this guy's behavior would really look funny. With such a naive appearance, the short front legs are dancing so hard, and coupled with the contrast between it and the huge creature below that is raising its head and vomiting, the snake and turtle in mid-air has the feeling of shaking a tree. However, Tianjihong, who was well aware of the strength of snake turtles, naturally did not see it this way. He saw the pale spiritual power floating on the outstretched claws, just as he was about to contact the scales on the back of the soil salamander below. , this small paw print suddenly enlarged nearly ten times, and the huge reflection immediately enveloped half of the body of the newt; although the cultivation level of this snake and turtle is far from reaching the level of spiritual power. Despite the degree of transformation, with the help of the phantom of the paw prints that suddenly condensed, spiritual power can still flow through it to form a huge deterrent. With this sharp claw, the seemingly one-sided battle situation was immediately changed.
