Chapter 115: Facing a desperate situation
Yuan Ming’s dantian was almost depleted of mana at this moment, and the transformation of the white ape automatically dissipated, with the white ape’s skin falling to the ground.
His soul power was also only one-third remaining, and he felt exhausted just standing there, wishing to sleep for three days.
But he knew that now was not the time to rest. Hu Huo’s shout just now was enough to indicate that Kun Tu and the others were probably nearby, not far away. He had to leave as soon as possible.
He bit his tongue, using the pain to stimulate his spirit. After putting away the white ape’s skin, he didn’t even bother to search Hu Huo’s body and directly turned around and fled. At the same time, his left hand, hidden in his sleeve, tightly grasped the wood attribute spirit stone, ignoring the pain as he absorbed it crazily.
But before he could run far, a loud "whoosh" sound rang out.
A dense barrage of wind blades suddenly shot out from the trees in front, raining down on his body like a storm.
Yuan Ming’s expression changed drastically, and he quickly activated the remaining mana to perform the Shadowless Step, making his whole person blurry and moving horizontally by two zhang, barely avoiding the onslaught of wind blades.
However, within the dense wind blades, the directions of two crescent-shaped wind blades suddenly changed, slashing towards Yuan Ming’s dodging direction and targeting his legs.
Yuan Ming’s eyes twitched, immediately mobilizing his last bit of mana to activate the mysterious incense burner hidden in his bosom, causing it to float half a zhang above the ground, allowing the moon-shaped wind blades to pass by.
The moon-shaped wind blades did not change direction again and struck the ground, sinking into it with a "pu chi" sound.
Yuan Ming stopped activating the incense burner, staggered and landed on the ground, gasping for breath.
Clap clap clap!
Clear applause came from the forest, and Kun Tu walked out with a smile on his face.
The green wolf spirit beast followed closely behind, its fierce eyes staring at Yuan Ming, seemingly resentful that he had evaded its attacks.
"To be able to dodge my spirit beast’s consecutive attacks in this situation, not bad, really not bad." Kun Tu clapped his hands while laughing.Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.com
"Kun Tu, it seems you have been nearby for a long time." Yuan Ming narrowed his eyes.
"Haha, of course I have been here for a long time. I just wanted to see what you are capable of now. With your mana almost depleted, you should kneel and beg for mercy. If I’m in a good mood, I might spare your life and leave you with a complete corpse." Kun Tu laughed triumphantly.
"If you want my life, come and take it." Yuan Ming provocatively beckoned to Kun Tu with his finger.
Upon hearing Yuan Ming’s words, Kun Tu’s brow slightly furrowed.
He personally witnessed Yuan Ming killing Hu Huo on the spot and didn’t have full confidence that Yuan Ming’s mana was truly depleted. Seeing that Yuan Ming was so confident, he hesitated.
Yuan Ming secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, but he still wore a cold smile on his face, continuing to absorb the spiritual energy from the spirit stone, trying to recover some mana.
"By the way, where is Wu Lu? Wasn’t he always by Kun Tu’s side? Could he be plotting something in secret?" He suddenly remembered something and thought to himself.
At this moment, footsteps came from behind Kun Tu, and three figures walked out of the jungle.
The one in front was Wu Lu, holding a rope in his hand, with the other end tied to the wrists of Tu Ya and her daughter.
Yuan Ming’s gaze darkened as he clenched his fist.
"Wu Lu, did you separate from me just now to capture these two mortals?" Kun Tu frowned and asked.
"Senior brother, these two people are not insignificant mortals. They are of great use." Wu Lu said.
"Great use? What great use?" Kun Tu asked in surprise.
The black crow wasn’t very fast, but it was small and agile. It barely dodged the attack of the black wind dragon and once again pounced on Kun Tu, making it impossible for him to split his attention.
Upon seeing Yuan Ming’s gesture towards him, Wu Lu quickly concentrated and prepared himself, doing his best to maintain the light shield in front of him.
A "hiss" sound of corrosion came. The demon vine wrapped around his arm secreted a black venom. The clothes on his arm were easily corroded, and the venom touched his skin.
Wu Lu’s skin instantly rotted, and the flesh underneath quickly melted away, revealing the white bones in many places.
"Ah!" Wu Lu was shocked. A layer of blue light emerged from his arm, trying to isolate the venom of the demon vine, but it didn’t have much effect.
While controlling the black crow to entangle Kun Tu, Yuan Ming also used the little mana he had just accumulated to activate the beast control technique and control the purple-black demon vine.
The tip of the demon vine became sharp and even emitted a blood-red light. It pierced into Wu Lu’s chest like a snake coming out of its hole.
Given the current situation, his mana was about to be exhausted, and he was at an absolute disadvantage. The only chance of winning was to kill one of them as quickly as possible.
At this moment, the forest behind Yuan Ming exploded with a "boom". The violent wind shredded the branches and leaves, and Kun Tu’s green wolf spirit beast pounced out, its claws attacking Yuan Ming’s back.
Yuan Ming was startled and quickly used the Shadowless Step to dodge to the side.
His mana was already exhausted, and his movements were slow. He barely avoided being pierced through the chest by the claws, but his arm was still slashed open, revealing the bone. He staggered backward.
The green wolf spirit beast didn’t let up. It opened its mouth and spat out four or five green wind blades, spinning towards Yuan Ming’s body.
Yuan Ming’s face turned pale. He took out the Green Fish Sword with his right hand and wildly swung it to block the wind blades.
With several intense collisions, a few wind blades were knocked away. Yuan Ming was sent flying, hitting a large tree hard. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
Yuan Ming was severely injured and couldn’t care about anything else. The purple-black demon vine wasn’t greatly affected, but the black crow controlled by his soul suddenly became sluggish.
"Go!"
Taking advantage of the situation, Kun Tu pointed his ghost flag. A crescent-shaped black wind blade shot out from the tip of the flag. Its speed was astonishingly fast, crossing several Zhang in a flash and slashing the black crow.
With a soft "hiss", half of the black crow’s body was cut off.
The black wind dragon opened its mouth wide and bit the black crow, and a dozen violent and sharp black wind blades exploded in its mouth.
How could the black crow withstand such an attack? Its body instantly disintegrated.
In this way, Yuan Ming’s mana and soul were both exhausted, and an irresistible fatigue surged in his heart.
"Haha, Yuan Ming, obediently become a sacrifice for my flag!" Kun Tu laughed and waved his ghost flag.
The black wind dragon bared its teeth and claws and shot out, heading straight for Yuan Ming.
Yuan Ming’s face changed as he tried to dodge, but his legs felt as if they were filled with lead, and he couldn’t move a step.
The black wind dragon arrived in an instant, hitting him hard in the chest.
Yuan Ming was sent flying, a mouthful of blood spurted out, his internal organs almost displaced, and he fell to the ground, motionless.
