The brother and sister standing on the verdant lawn saw their auras change drastically, one shifting from serene to profound, the other from tranquil to pitch-black.
Four spirit rings, emanating from Tang San and Tang Sui respectively, rose, obscuring their figures in black mist.
The opposing Nether White Tiger immediately crouched low, its sharp fangs bared, emitting a low growl from its throat, ready to attack at any moment.
But for now, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's objective was not to attack, but to remain vigilant and defensive.
As a spectral glow flashed through the black mist, the siblings were no longer in their original positions.
"Whoosh—!"
From the shadow of the Nether White Tiger, a black mask with gold patterns flew out, striking heavily against its abdomen, sending the entire large tiger soaring into the air, its fluffy limbs flailing helplessly in the emptiness.
So fast!
And so painful!
Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai, struck simultaneously, had their thoughts converge.
A figure cloaked in darkness suddenly emerged from the black mist, appearing silently above the Nether White Tiger. Its refined, indifferent handsome face bore no emotion. Controlling the ape mask, it flicked its fingertip, like pulling a trigger, and a sharp projectile burst forth, swiftly piercing the void and striking the Nether White Tiger's spine.
"Roar—!"
The sense of crisis honed over the past few years prompted the Nether White Tiger to react with utmost speed.
Enduring the intense pain, its purple-glowing body was suddenly enveloped in a golden aura. Like a bursting firework, a violent explosion forcefully repelled the descending mask, temporarily evading the attack from both front and back.
But it wasn't over yet.
The Nether White Tiger, stubbornly turning in mid-air, saw the slender, dark figure clearly in its two amber-glowing golden eyes. It slightly opened its tiger mouth, and a terrifying beam of spirit energy gathered, compressed, and then erupted, precisely targeting Tang San in mid-air. Sudan Novel Network.
A faint black light rippled in Tang San's indifferent, calm eyes. The next instant, without the mask as a foothold for his aerial rotation, and even without the aid of wings, he spun freely in the air, as if an invisible pair of wings were attached to his back, nimbly dodging the relentlessly pursuing beam.
"To be able to fly directly without relying on spirit bones or spirit skills!" Standing far away and observing the battle, the Master's eyes gleamed with wonder.
Walking on air, shrinking the ground to an inch – these were feats only achievable by Title Douluo!
He hadn't expected that the spirit fusion skill of Xiao San and Sui Sui could not only break through the limits of their current cultivation but also allow them to ride the wind and occupy the best vantage point, which was also an absolutely advantageous position!
And Xiao San's mastery of Sui Sui's mask spirit was also exquisite.
What surprised him even more was that the black mist terrain that came with their spirit fusion form had a sensation similar to a domain, allowing the mask to sneak into the black mist at will and reappear from it. This was likely something the enemy hadn't anticipated either!
Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing were not merely surprised; their jaws nearly dropped.
"Hiss—Isn't this cheating too much! Fortunately, your spirit fusion skill only lasts for five minutes at most." Dai Mubai, who had expended a considerable amount of spirit power from this attack, gasped in the space of their mental connection.
He recalled that he and Zhu Qing had previously lamented the short duration of their spirit fusion form.
Now?
In the face of absolute strength, even a single blow was enough to end the entire battle! Let alone five minutes; he felt it was uncertain if they could even last three minutes now!
Tang San lowered his gaze, his footsteps flickering, his form twisting, and he merged into the black mist rising from the ground, becoming one with it, his trajectory indistinguishable.
The Nether White Tiger cautiously scanned the surrounding dense black mist, wary of Tang San suddenly emerging from any blind spot. Yet, Tang San, having cornered his prey into a trap, began to toy with it at his leisure.
He deliberately leaked his aura at certain points while moving, provoking the Nether White Tiger to attack, only for it to miss. He didn't seize the moment of the opponent's attack for a sneak assault but repeated this process several times. When the Nether White Tiger was finally pushed to its breaking point by this dirty psychological warfare and could no longer contain its anger, it began to condense an energy beam again. Tang San then stood firm on one side of the black mist, not charging out, but slamming his palm onto the ground.
"Shhh—!"
Black Blue Silver Grass vines, flowing with dark light, surged from all directions towards the Nether White Tiger, seemingly to ensnare it, or perhaps to impale it. The tips of the black Blue Silver Grass vines gleamed with a deadly cold radiance, startling the Nether White Tiger, causing its pupils to contract. It no longer waited or intentionally lured, releasing the beam from its mouth. The powerful attack pierced through the tough black vines, breaking open an escape route.
While unleashing its attack, the Nether White Tiger moved its four limbs, warily charging towards the channel it had forcefully carved.
Even though its offensive was fierce and capable of severing the attacking Blue Silver Grass, it couldn't withstand so many menacing vines. Moreover, two masks had infiltrated the black mist, and it was unknown from which corner they would emerge to attack. It just wanted to quickly escape the encirclement of the Blue Silver Grass.
Unexpectedly, the Nether White Tiger, charging towards the escape route it had forcefully created, fell precisely into its opponent's scheme.
Confirming that the prey had completely entered the pre-arranged trap location, Tang San, standing silently in the black mist, raised his hand, his thin lips uttering four cold words:
"Blue Silver Stab."

This is too hilariously absurd. Their family almost got stuck at Mo Li's house due to the epidemic. Mo Li directly put on a smile and said, "Auntie, don't worry, if you're uncomfortable taking the subway, I'll drive you home. I'll make sure you get right to your doorstep."
