Chapter 886: Thrilling Chase Under The Rain!
Chapter 886: Thrilling Chase Under The Rain!
Tang Li Xue had to avoid every falling space fragment carefully as she headed toward the pillar of the light using her [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step].
The speed of her [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] might not be nearly as fast as her [Wind Burst Step], but it was a lot more flexible and graceful compared to [Wind Burst Step] which could only move extremely fast in a straight line.
That was mainly the reason why [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] was the most suitable in this current situation, especially since Tang Li Xue no longer had [Mind's Eyes] buff to predict where the falling space fragments would fall ahead of time.
.....
After Tang Li Xue ran more than a dozen miles away from the previous cliff, the strange creature was finally able to crawl out from the pitch-black hole using the giant demonic claws created from its own black energy after spending so much effort.
But many parts of the strange creature's body were disintegrated by the extremely destructive space energy such as its hands, legs, and shoulders.
Despite that, the strange creature's black fog-like energy solidified to form its hands, legs, and shoulders, then completely merged with its body.
In that instant, the strange creature's body was completely restored like before as if it was not affected after falling into the Void Space.
If Tang Li Xue had seen what had happened to the strange creature just now, she would have recognized that what it did was almost the same as the scary woman in a fancy red dress she had faced in Medicine Garden Palace before.
Maybe because they were pretty much the same type of 'creature', so their abilities were also identical.
Of course, the strange creature's strength was on a whole different level compared to the previous scary woman in a fancy red dress.
After its body completely recovered, the strange creature looked around in great rage to find Tang Li Xue.
It really wanted to vent its anger by tearing her body to shreds and eating each of her body parts with relish.
Unfortunately for it, Tang Li Xue was no longer there anymore, so no matter how hard the strange creature was searching for her there, it would never be able to find her.
"ROOOOAAAAARRR~!" The strange creature roared out loud in anger as the black energy that shrouded its body burst out like a broken dam.
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The entire cliff instantly exploded into dust by the strange creature's catastrophic black energy!
The strange creature immediately calmed down after it went on a rampage for a few moments.
Then the strange creature closed its eyes as it tried to sense Tang Li Xue's location.
Surprisingly, the strange creature could really sense Tang Li Xue's location!
"Kuhehehehehe~!" The strange creature let out its eerie laugh in excitement as it turned into a black flash and flew toward Tang Li Xue's location with breakneck speed.
Tang Li Xue might cry in frustration if she knew the reason why the strange creature could sense her location so accurately was because of the previous black energy given to her by the strange creature when she evolved before.
Yes, it was truly ironic that the black energy given by the strange creature which had helped her so much to get through her evolution safely before had become her stumbling block right now.
.....
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue's silver furry body subconsciously shuddered as she suddenly had a really bad feeling as if she was being targeted by a terrifying beast.
"What the heck is this? Why do I feel like something is chasing me from behind? Don't tell me that monster already managed to jump out from that hole and even chasing after me right now?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a worried tone while frowning deeply.
It seemed the ability to sense should have worked both ways after Tang Li Xue merged the strange creature's black energy with her three kinds of energies and bloodlines using the Yin-Yang Diagram.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs as she anxiously tried to increase her speed to maximum, but running while dodging all of the falling space fragments on her way was certainly not an easy thing to do.
Even though Tang Li Xue's Agility stat had improved a lot after she evolved, and her current speed was already extremely fast compared to her previous self, but the strange creature's speed was obviously still much faster than hers!
It did not take long for the strange creature to catch up with Tang Li Xue and see her back from behind!
"Damn it~! This persistent bast*rd is so annoying!" Tang Li Xue wailed in dissatisfaction.
Tang Li Xue hated to admit it, but she really ran out of options right now.
Her [Mind's Eyes] and [Wings of Freedom] had entered cooldown, so she should not be able to use them anymore in a short period of time.
Not to mention that even her Phoenix of Pride and Yaya had already fallen asleep in exhaustion, so neither [Divine Possession Mode] nor [Perfect Assimilation Mode] were available at this point.
The only good news was that the [Merge] buff from [Twin Moons] divine ability was still there, and it would still last for at least half an hour or so.
The strange creature was getting closer and closer rapidly to Tang Li Xue from behind which made Tang Li Xue become more and more anxious.
Just when the strange creature managed to get so close to Tang Li Xue's rear, and it transformed its black fog-like energy into several giant demonic claws, then let them stretch forward to catch Tang Li Xue...
[Shadow Flash]~!
Tang Li Xue activated her equipment skill and instantly teleported to the tree's shade one hundred meters from her previous location.
The strange creature snorted in displeasure before it increased its speed and rushed faster toward Tang Li Xue!
"At this rate, that stinky monster will definitely catch me really soon! I really have to do something fast before that happens!" Tang Li Xue groaned as she kept running with her [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] while dodging the falling space fragments by jumping to the right and left agilely until she left several after images behind.
Just when Tang Li Xue had completely run out of ideas, two flashes of light suddenly flew out from her Dantian!
"Wha... It is you guys?!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in surprise.
Yes, those two flashes of light were actually Little Loki and Lucia!
It seemed their injuries had already recovered completely!
Lucia used her beak to pull the back of Tang Li Xue's neck and threw Tang Li Xue onto her back before she flapped her wings rapidly and flew toward the pillar of golden light with breakneck speed.
The strange creature gritted its teeth in vexation.
It felt like the delicious food was already right in front of its teeth, but it was actually taken by someone before it had a chance to take a bite of it.
The strange creature kept chasing after Tang Li Xue while controlling the several giant demonic claws formed from its black energy to stretch toward Tang Li Xue again!
Right before the giant demonic claws almost reached Tang Li Xue and Lucia, Little Loki who sat on the top of Tang Li Xue's furry head suddenly used its [Instant Teleportation] to appear on Lucia's rear.
Little Loki opened its tiny mouth widely...
[Heaven's Devour]~!
Those approaching giant demonic claws actually got sucked into Little Loki's mouth instead before they could grab Tang Li Xue and Lucia from behind!
Little Loki licked its lips in satisfaction while glaring at the strange creature mockingly.
It looked like Little Loki was still holding a grudge at it because the strange creature broke Little Loki's chin and neck with its kick before.
The strange creature glared coldly at Little Loki before it spread its black fog-like energy toward Lucia's legs and solidified into black chains!
The black chains that bound Lucia's legs connected to the strange creature's hands, then it suddenly pulled the chain with its great strength!
BAAAAANGG~! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lucia fell down really hard and crashed heavily onto the ground!
But it was not only that...
Tang Li Xue still hugged Lucia's neck tightly even after Lucia crashed hard onto the ground, so she would not get thrown off.
"Watch out~!" Tang Li Xue shouted in panic when Lucia who was still sliding on the ground because of the inertia of her fall almost crashed into the falling space fragments or fell into the pitch-black hole!
Lucia hastily used [Gigantification] to shrink her body to palm-size, so she would not accidentally bump into those space fragments or fall into the pitch-black hole!
Because Lucia suddenly got smaller, the strange creature's black chain could no longer bind her.
Tang Li Xue quickly caught Lucia while performing [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] to dodge those falling space fragments.
But the strange creature delightfully took this chance to close the gap between it and Tang Li Xue!
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Lucia could only try to unleash their strongest attack in order to push the strange creature away from them!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
[Heaven's Devour]~!
[Golden Light Spell] plus [Blade Feather Slash]~!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
However, it was Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Lucia who got thrown off violently until they spurted a few mouthfuls of blood instead after their attacks clashed head-on against the strange creature's claw attack!
Different from before, this time the strange creature did not hold back its strength much, so Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Lucia should be injured pretty badly.
The only reason why the strange creature did not attack Tang Li Xue with all of its strength just now was because it did not want Tang Li Xue to explode into blood mist.
After all, the strange creature's main objective was to eat Tang Li Xue from the very start.
