Chapter 7 The Spiritual Ray Unleashes Its Power, Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm is Shocked!
Upon hearing Liu Yuan's request, Bei Bei was slightly taken aback, and then a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Are you a spirit-type?"
Generally speaking, it is rare for a non-spiritual attribute Soul Master to use a spiritual attribute Soul Ring, and spiritual attribute Soul Masters have always been extremely rare on the Douluo Continent.
"That's right, I have a spirit-attribute martial soul." Liu Yuan replied to Bei Bei.
"Alright! Since you need it, then we'll take care of this big guy!"
Beibei agreed without any hesitation.
This was the original intention of forming a team, and through getting to know Liu Yuan over the past few days, he had also developed a lot of goodwill towards this boy with a tragic past.
He was happy to help Liu Yuan.
"Prepare for battle!"
With a low shout from BeiBei, the Shrek reserve team instantly entered battle mode.
"Xiaoya, you're in charge of controlling and restricting its movements!"
"Yuhao, activate mental detection and provide us with the field of vision!"
"I'll lead the attack and draw their fire!"
"Liu Yuan, find your own opportunity to make your move!"
Beibei's commands were concise and clear, demonstrating a high level of tactical skill.
"clear!"
The crowd responded in unison.
Buzz!
Huo Yuhao made the first move, his spiritual eyes instantly turning a faint gold, and a ring of shimmering white spirit rose from beneath his feet.
Mental detection sharing!
In an instant, Liu Yuan felt a gentle spiritual force connect to his brain.
The next second, everything around me seemed to become three-dimensional. The rustling of the grass, the contraction of the Soul Spider's muscles, and even the trembling of its leg hair were clearly presented in my mind.
"Is this Huo Yuhao's mind sharing...?"
Liu Yuan secretly praised him. Although his double pupils gave him far superior insight than ordinary people, this all-encompassing God's-eye view experience was indeed quite unique.
"First Soul Skill, Entanglement!"
Just as Huo Yuhao opened his vision, Tang Ya also let out a delicate shout.
With a wave of her hands, several thick, dark blue vines burst forth from the ground beneath the Soul Spider like venomous snakes emerging from their holes, instantly wrapping around its eight long legs and then spreading towards its torso.
"Hiss—!!"
The sudden restraints caused the Soul Spider to hiss in anger. It struggled desperately, its long, barbed legs slicing wildly through the Blue Silver Grass, producing a teeth-grinding scraping sound.
"Now!"
Seizing the moment when the Soul Spider was briefly controlled, Beibei moved like lightning, her right arm already transformed into a ferocious dragon claw, with blue-purple lightning crackling wildly.
"Thunder Dragon Claw!"
boom!
Beibei leaped high into the air, and its dragon claw, imbued with the power of violent thunder, slammed down on the back of the Soul Spider with immense force!
Bang--!!!
A loud bang was heard, and lightning flashed everywhere.
The Soul Spider's seemingly hard shell appeared somewhat fragile in front of the Thunder Dragon Claw, instantly cracking with a charred mark and gushing out a foul-smelling green liquid.
"Aow—!!"
The Soul Spider cried out in pain, letting out a piercing scream.
But it was, after all, a thousand-year-old soul beast. When it became extremely ferocious, it opened its mouth and spewed out a thick gray mist, which was its innate spiritual poison!
"Watch out for the poisonous fog!"
Huo Yuhao's voice rang out in the mental network.
Although Beibei was brave, she knew how dangerous the poisonous fog was. She quickly dodged out of its reach.
However, just when everyone thought this attack would be enough to severely injure the Soul Spider, a bizarre scene unfolded.
Suddenly, a strange gray light emerged from the charred wound on the Soul Spider's back.
Immediately afterwards, the wound that was still bleeding began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a few seconds, it was completely restored, as if it had never been injured at all!
"this..."
Beibei frowned, her expression turning serious. "Such a powerful self-healing ability! Is this a characteristic of the Soul Spider?"
"Xiaoya, keep it under control! Yuhao, watch its movements!"
Undeterred, Beibei launched another attack.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Thunder roared and lightning flashed.
In the following minutes, with his formidable attack power and Huo Yuhao's assistance, Bei Bei repeatedly inflicted horrific wounds on the Soul Spider.
On one occasion, he even used Thunderous Strike to blast off the two legs of the Soul Spider!
but!
It's no use!
That soul spider seemed to be immortal; no matter how badly it was injured, as long as that eerie gray light flashed, the injury would be quickly healed.
The severed leg grew back just like a gecko's tail!
"Damn it! How come this guy is so hard to kill?!"
Tang Ya was also exhausted, her forehead covered in sweat. Continuously releasing the Blue Silver Grass Entanglement had taken a toll on her soul power.
"Beibei, this can't go on! Its recovery ability is too abnormal!"
Beibei was also panting heavily, a hint of anxiety flashing in her eyes.
Although his attack power is strong, his soul power is also limited.
If you don't find a weakness in this kind of shameless, regenerative soul beast, you'll probably be worn down to death.
"Weakness...where exactly is its weakness?"
While moving around and restraining others, Beibei frantically searched for weaknesses with the help of mental detection.
And just then...
Liu Yuan, who had always remained on the fringes of the battlefield and seemed to be "drifting along," always maintained his composure.
His double pupils remained open, but he didn't rush to make a move.
With his "Insight" ability fully activated, coupled with Huo Yuhao's mental detection assistance, he was able to clearly capture the flow trajectory of every strand of soul power within the Soul Spider's body.
He discovered a pattern.
Every time the Soul Spider is severely injured and prepares to unleash its bizarre regenerative ability, a strange reverse flow of soul power occurs within its body.
All the soul power will surge wildly towards the gray-white spot in the center of the six compound eyes on its head in an instant!
Normally, that spot is well protected by soul power, and even has some kind of rebound mechanism. Several times when Beibei's lightning grazed that spot, it was bounced off.
but!
Only at the moment it activates its recovery skill, in order to mobilize all the life energy in its body, the defense of that spot will instantly drop to the minimum!
It could even be described as completely open!
That's its Achilles' heel!
"I see..."
Liu Yuan's lips curled into a cold smile. "This is your weakness, isn't it..."
Just then, the situation on the field changed again.
To break the deadlock, Beibei unleashed a powerful "Thunderous Fury".
Boom!
This attack blasted half of the Soul Spider's body to smithereens!
"Hiss—!!"
The Soul Spider let out another death scream, and then the familiar gray light shone again; it was about to begin its recovery!
"Beibei, be careful! It's going to revert to its original state again!" Tang Ya cried out in despair.
Beibei also looked helpless and was preparing to retreat and adjust her rhythm.
However, in that very instant!
"Now!"
Liu Yuan, who had been silent all along, suddenly shouted.
He took a sudden step forward, his eyes fixed on the soul spider that was frantically drawing energy from its head.
The soul power within his body surged into his eyes without reservation!
At this moment, spiritual power and soul power are highly compressed and merged!
A brilliant red light shone from those double pupils!
"First Soul Skill - Mental Ray!!"
laugh--!!!
Without any warning, two scarlet, blood-red beams of high energy, like the gaze of death, instantly traversed a distance of tens of meters!
quick!
That's too fast!
It was so fast that even Huo Yuhao, who possessed mental detection abilities, only felt a blur before his eyes!
At this moment, the Soul Spider's entire defense is focused on repairing its body, leaving its fatal weakness on its head completely exposed to the air.
puff!
A soft, piercing sound rang out.
The two red spiritual rays pierced the grayish-white spot in the very center of the Soul Spider's head with perfect precision!
It was like a needle puncturing a balloon.
"Gah—!"
The Soul Spider, which had been screaming wildly and preparing to fully recover, suddenly stopped.
Its massive body stiffened abruptly, then began to tremble violently.
In that instant, the circulation of soul power within its body was completely severed, and the life energy that was gathering instantly went out of control, resulting in a terrifying internal explosion!
Bang!
A muffled thud.
The Soul Spider's head exploded open, leaving a huge hole! Green fluid mixed with white brain matter splattered everywhere!
Boom!
Its massive body crashed heavily to the ground, its eight long legs twitched a few times, and then it remained completely still.
A purple halo slowly rose from its corpse, emanating an eerie yet powerful aura.
That was a thousand-year-old soul ring that burst forth from its body!
Meanwhile, on one side, after witnessing this sudden scene...
Whether it's Huo Yuhao, Bei Bei, Tang Ya, or even the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm within Huo Yuhao...
They were all shocked.
