Chapter 87: The Killing Arrow
Feeling the soul power breath coming towards him, Xia Liang couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Fortunately, the undead attribute of the Undead Skeleton Martial Soul was stronger than the undead attribute of the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King, so he was not suppressed in the aura.
However, the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King, who had cultivated for ten thousand years, had the potential to be a fierce beast. Could he successfully hunt such a top-level plant soul beast by himself?
After soul beasts broke through the ten thousand years of cultivation, they would generally comprehend new soul skills. For example, the ten thousand year old human-faced demon spider had already learned the desperate skill of the spider god possession.
While deep in thought, Xia Liang suddenly discovered that the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King was not happy about his successful advancement. Instead, he stood there motionless, closing his blood-red eyes to rest.
Is this a new ability gained from advancing?
After eating the milk drink and the Spirit Hundred Times Mushroom that blocked his own breath and mental detection, Xia Liang put his palms together, and three palm-sized soul rings of yellow, purple and black merged between his palms.
He wanted to take advantage of the moment when the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King was in enlightenment and use his strongest skeletal Susanoo to fire an arrow with all his strength.
If he could kill the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King with a single arrow to the head, he would have a chance to obtain his fourth soul ring.
If you cannot hurt the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King, evacuate immediately.
Driven by the talent of fusion ring.
The eight-meter-tall ossified Susanoo half-skeleton has undergone a new change.
The entire left arm of the ossified Susanoo was covered with black scales with a very strong bone texture, and the purple Susanoo bow on the wrist became even bigger under the coverage of these bone-textured scales.
The entire right arm of the ossified Susanoo expanded by twice as much, and a bone armor grew out of the right shoulder, gaining a stronger power of the Nether Ghost Bear.
A back armor of an iron-backed scorpion condenses on the chest of the skeletal Susanoo, making it more defensive.
Finally, a pair of horns grew out of the ossified skull of Susanoo.
This series of changes are completed in the next second when the Ring Fusion talent is activated.
When Xia Liang injected the energy obtained from the fusion ring into his body, the strongest and most stable skeletal Susanoo half-skeleton form had completely covered him.
This is the skeletal Susanoo in the fused ring state. It can sustain combat for at least ten minutes before its soul power is exhausted.
If the soul power is consumed at the same time, it can only last for three minutes at most.
Compared with the skeletonized Susanoo that was previously displayed in front of Yu Tianheng, the skeletonized Susanoo in the fusion ring state will not only have the added amplification of the original three soul skills, but will also gain an additional 30% increase in all attributes.
As the number of spirit rings increases, the percentage of overall attribute improvement will increase accordingly.
The fusion state can stimulate the characteristics of the soul beast corresponding to each soul ring, thus forming this kind of skeletal Susanoo in the form of beast-armor.
In short, the skeletal Susanoo in the fused ring state can use the same abilities as Xia Liang, including the long-range attack effect of the left metacarpal bone attached to the bone dragon and the bone dragon's stab.
With the effect of shielding breath and mental detection, and the distance of three hundred meters, Xia Liang did not have to worry about the skeletonized Susanoo being discovered. Using the power of perspective to break through the obstacles such as trees and boulders in front, he controlled the skeletonized Susanoo's left arm to slowly raise it.
The huge Susanoo bow armed with bone-like scales was aimed forward. The skeletal Susanoo's right hand made a bow-drawing motion, and a black arrow condensed from soul power, space attributes and fire energy appeared on the bowstring like an illusion.
This arrow must be a fatal arrow.
Therefore, Xia Liang used two-thirds of his soul power to condense arrows, and reserved the remaining one-third of his soul power for space jumping so as to avoid unexpected dangers in time.
In the dark stone forest three hundred meters away, the red-eyed tree demon king was still standing there motionless. It seemed to have entered hibernation and was completely unaware of the presence of any dangerous aura.
At the same time, an arrow burning with black flames had been condensed on the Susanoo bow, and Xia Liang's perspective locked onto the eyes of the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King.
As the thought came to him, the right hand of the skeletal Susanoo that was drawing the bow suddenly loosened.
In the blink of a black light, the arrow burning with black flames had already escaped into space, ignoring all obstacles in front of it, and shot straight towards the center of the eyebrows of the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King.
This arrow must be a fatal arrow. Even if it cannot kill the target, it must severely damage the opponent's soul and greatly reduce his strength.
Therefore, this arrow must have the effect of attacking the soul in the realm of the undead.
The undead realm currently only covers an area of fifty meters in radius. If you want to attack the soul of the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King, you must get within fifty meters of it.
The moment the ossified Susano shot the black arrow, Xia Liang had already made a decision. Since he had already made the move, he might as well take a gamble. He absolutely could not let the red-eyed tree demon king escape, otherwise it would be extremely difficult to find another such ten thousand year soul beast.
In order to let the undead realm cover the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King, he immediately activated the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone skill of flying and space jumping, and appeared twenty meters away from the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King faster than a shot arrow.
Suddenly enveloped by the realm of the undead, the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King finally sensed the danger, and his blood-red and strange eyes suddenly opened.
At this moment, an arrow came out of nowhere and pierced through the body of the red-eyed tree demon, then exploded after hitting the ground.
Bang, boom, boom.
The compressed and condensed soul power and fire energy exploded in an instant, forming a black light ball covering an area of 20 meters.
The red-eyed tree demon was first shot through the body without any preparation, and then affected by the fire energy generated by the explosion of the arrow. These injuries, with the effect of the undead realm, were direct attacks on the soul.
Even though Xia Liang himself only has level 40 soul power, it can be strengthened and amplified by three soul skills, and with the fusion ring state, the overall attributes of the skeletal Susanoo are increased by 30%.
These conditions combined are enough to kill a Soul Emperor.
And if you want to severely damage the soul of an unprotected top-level ten thousand year soul beast, it is entirely possible to do so.
This is indeed the case. When the arrow pierced through the body of the Red-Eyed Dryad King and hit the ground to form a huge black ball of light and exploded, the soul of the Red-Eyed Dryad King suffered unimaginable destruction in the huge black ball of light.
The stone forest with a radius of twenty meters was almost covered by the blazing black flames and turned into a sea of fire.
Xia Liang instantly moved to a distance of thirty meters, and his bone-shaped Susanoo blocked the energy impact of the arrow explosion, but after a series of attacks, his soul power was less than one-tenth of its full state, and it was impossible for him to use the bone dragon dagger to complete the long-distance space teleportation and evacuation.
However, it seems that there is no need to evacuate.
The Red-Eyed Tree Demon King was hit by the fatal arrow without any preparation. Even if he didn't die, his soul would be severely damaged.
In close combat when the opponent's soul is severely damaged, the skeletal Susanoo in the fusion state can definitely beat the opponent to death.
The Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone skill was activated, and with the recovery of the spirit skill of Wildfire Burns and Spring Breeze Blows, Xia Liang's depleted physical strength was quickly restored to full state, and the bone parts of the ossified Susanoo that were damaged by the impact were also repairing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Unfortunately, the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone, like Ye Lingling's Nine-Hearted Begonia, cannot restore soul power, otherwise this would truly be a magical skill.
The black ball of light covering an area of twenty meters gradually dissipated.
Xia Liang could no longer hear the screams of the Red-Eyed Tree Demon King. When the black sea of fire that was burning the surrounding objects died out, a corpse was lying quietly on the ground.
