Chapter 439: Sucked!
Chapter 439: Sucked!
Since her movement was so swift, the scene looked as if the five two-headed black dogs just passed through her body.
But when the five two-headed black dogs passed through her, Tang Li Xue struck their waist with her palms.
BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG...
The five two-headed black dogs were also thrown off several meters because of her strike, but they immediately stood up and charged toward Tang Li Xue again.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper and started to ponder: \'This is really meaningless... They really cannot be hurt by any physical attack. Sigh... I am quite sure that I can kill them with my Flame of Pride, but I really do not want to kill them! What I want is to tame them and make them join my armies! But... how?!\'
Tang Li Xue glanced at the [Scepter of Disaster] in her right hand\'s grasp for one moment.
\'Maybe I should just hit them with this [Scepter of Disaster]? But... what if this [Scepter of Disaster] got damaged because I treat it too roughly! It is Heavenly Treasure ranked 832nd! I might cry a bucket of tears if it got damaged or even destroyed!\' Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration and hesitation as she dodged the rapid attacks from several two-headed black dogs with her [Drifting Cloud Palms] again.
In the end, Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and chose to try to hit them with the [Scepter of Disaster] instead.
Since she already learned several good sword techniques in the previous trial, Tang Li Xue decided to hold and use the [Scepter of Disaster] like using a sword.
When one of the two-headed black dogs pounced toward her and opened its mouth filled with sharp fangs to bite her...
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
Tang Li Xue suddenly stabbed at the two-headed black dog\'s left eyes using the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp!
PPPUUUFFF~!!!
The [Scepter of Disaster] pierced deep into the two-headed black dog\'s left eyes, but there was no blood coming out, only black smoke.
However, something out of Tang Li Xue\'s expectation was happening all of a sudden!
That two-headed black dog was actually sucked into the [Scepter of Disaster]!
The two-headed black dog struggled for a few moments to run away but to no avail. Its body turned into a lump of black smoke and sucked into the [Scepter of Disaster] in only one or two seconds.
Even Tang Li Xue herself was completely dumbfounded when she saw the bizarre scene in front of her.
The other two-headed black dogs reacted really fast when they saw one of their comrades got sucked into the [Scepter of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue\'s grasp.
They quickly stopped charging recklessly toward Tang Li Xue like before and only glared at Tan Li Xue warily while kept their distance from Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue tried to send her thoughts into the [Scepter of Disaster] to check what was happening just now.
She managed to sense the presence of that two-headed black dog in an instant, but when she located it according to her [Spirit Perception], she saw the two-headed black dog was actually trapped in the space inside the [Scepter of Disaster].
Strangely, the two-headed black dog that was trapped inside the [Scepter of Disaster] did not go rampage at all. It did not even struggle to try to come out from the [Scepter of Disaster]\'s space.
In fact, the two-headed black dog looked very comfortable and happily howled while bathing in the thick Death Qi produced by the [Scepter of Disaster].
Tang Li Xue\'s pink lips twitched violently when she saw that...
"Oh well… I should just hit them all with this [Scepter of Disaster] and suck them all into space in my [Scepter of Disaster] for now. I can think about how to tame them later after I went out from this Inheritance Ground Tablet later." Tang Li Xue held her chin with her slender fingers and absentmindedly muttered her next plan.
GRRRR~!!! WOOFF~!!! WOOFF~!!! WOOFF~!!!
The other two-headed black dogs no longer dared to carelessly approach and attack Tang Li Xue, so when Tang Li Xue stared at them, they only dared to bark at her to intimidate her.
However, Tang Li Xue only grinned mischievously at them and said to them: "All right, naughty puppies~! It is already late, so it is time for all of you to get home~!"
The group of two-headed black dogs started to shudder violently when they saw Tang Li Xue\'s smile.
They growled at Tang Li Xue while raised their vigilance to the maximum, but all of those were futile as Tang Li Xue\'s slender figure suddenly disappear in an instant from their view.
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Flash Draw!
This technique was the one that the previous fourth crystal puppet used the most.
The [Supreme Speed Sword Style] were the techniques focused on speed rather than sword technique, so it only has very few offensive sword techniques.
This [Flash Draw] was the simplest and the easiest to execute since it only consisted of three moves: unsheathed the sword from the scabbard, slashed the sword toward the enemy, and sheathed it back into the scabbard in quick succession.
However, it must be executed so swiftly that the enemy would not even realize that the sword ever left from its scabbard at all.
Tang Li Xue\'s [Scepter of Disaster] did not have any scabbard, and she did not even use a sword to fight right now. So, she was only using the rudimental form of this [Flash Draw] to attack the group of two-headed black dogs.
BBBAAAAAAAANNGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue\'s [Scepter of Disaster] struck precisely at the jaw of one of the two-headed black dogs until its two meters burly body spun a few times on mid-air, but before it could land back onto the ground, that two-headed black dog sucked into the [Scepter of Disaster].
The other three two-headed black dogs already rushed toward Tang Li Xue from behind, but Tang Li Xue already predicted that ahead of time.
She already spun her upper body while her feet quickly took a circular step and turned around, then she swung the [Scepter of Disaster] with all of her strength like swinging a sword.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spin!
BAANG~!!! BAANG~!!! BAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue\'s [Scepter of Disaster] smacked the three two-headed black dogs\' left cheek until they fell and their jaws slammed onto the ground.
When those three two-headed black dogs still felt dizzy and dazed, they already sucked into Tang Li Xue\'s [Scepter of Disaster].
After the other two-headed black dogs saw their comrades got sucked one by one by Tang Li Xue\'s [Scepter of Disaster], they became even more frenzied than before and started insanely attacking Tang Li Xue at once from all directions!
Tang Li Xue did not become anxious or afraid because of their attack from all directions, but she giggled mockingly at them instead.
When they were charged toward Tang Li Xue from all directions and opened their jaws to tear Tang Li Xue\'s fragile-looking body to pieces…
"What a group of stupid puppies~!" Tang Li Xue ridiculed the group of two-headed black dogs as she suddenly jumped really high.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The heads of two-headed black dogs crashed really hard against each other, and some of them even accidentally bit each other.
Tang Li Xue somersaulted on mid-air a few times to last a bit longer on mid-air, then she swiftly stabbed the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp downward!
[Chivalrous Sword Art], Meteor Break!
All of the techniques in [Chivalrous Sword Art] were very powerful, but they were also inflicting some damage to the user and full of opening for the enemy to exploit.
This [Chivalrous Sword Art] was very dangerous if it was used carelessly, but it would be really fatal and deathly for the enemies if used at the right timing, such as right now!
All of the two-headed black dogs were still in a confused state and dizzy when Tang Li Xue\'s [Meteor Break] suddenly smashed down like a heavy giant hammer onto their head!
The power of this [Meteor Break] was surprisingly astonishing as it managed to break the two-headed black dogs\' muzzle or even some of their head.
However, these two-headed black dogs were a type of evil spirit, so they could remain alive and even recover quite quickly even when Tang Li Xue already smashed their head or muzzle.
Unfortunately for them, the [Scepter of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue\'s grasp already sucked all of them before they could even recover completely.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she managed to suck all of the two-headed black dogs into the space inside her [Scepter of Disaster], but she still did not dare to lower her guard at all.
Tang Li Xue carefully looked around the great hall to find any clue to get out of this maze.
After one hour or so, Tang Li Xue finally managed to find several stone discs puzzle on the crystal wall.
The stone discs puzzle was quite difficult, but Tang Li Xue managed to solve it after tinkered it for a few hours.
The crystal wall in front of her suddenly opened upward, and when Tang Li Xue and her armies of death stepped out from that great hall, the crystal wall closed back again.
\'I see... So, the owner of this Crystal Palace Tomb did not actually want the trial takers to defeat those two-headed puppies. He wants one of the trial takers to solve this complicated puzzle while the other trial takers to hold those two-headed puppies for some time.\' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
\'Aihhh~! So, that is the reason why the previous trial is also very difficult! All of these trials should be done in a group, not taken solo like what I am doing right now!\' Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
When she saw her armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons that already dwindled to only 100 or so, Tang Li Xue became even more frustrated and regretful.
