Chapter 534: Twelve Minutes Countdown!
With Yaya's pa.s.sive agility enhancement divine ability, [Extreme Speed], that superimposed with Tang Li Xue's pa.s.sive divine ability, [Super Speed], plus Yaya's skill, [Fast Flight], Tang Li Xue's current speed became extremely fast like a blast of wind!
Moreover, the enormous tentacles' rapid angry attacks had become extremely slow and easy to predict in front of Yaya's [Wind G.o.d's Eyes]!
([Wind G.o.d's Eyes]: A pair of eyes blessed by the Wind G.o.d itself. making these pair of eyes capable of seeing through any kind of movement no matter how fast or deceptive it is and predicting the next few moves accurately.)
Tang Li Xue agilely flew right and left to avoid all of the enormous tentacles' attacks!
Tang Li Xue easily dodged all of the Kraken Fox's enormous tentacles attacks in a relaxed manner.
She did not even activate [Wings of Freedom]'s effect, or use [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] yet!
Even Tang Li Xue herself found it really hard to believe how easily she could dodge these enormous tentacles attacks that gave her such a huge headache before.
Of course, her reaction was normal since it had already been so long since Tang Li Xue entered [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya.
The last time she used [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya was when she just evolved into [Imperial Sun and Moon Fox] before.
But right now, her divine abilities, overall stats, battle experience, and so on had grown by leaps and bounds, so naturally, Tang Li Xue would also get much more powerful when she entered [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya than before!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... Come on, ugly fox~! Catch me again if you can, you slowpoke~!" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue and provoked the Kraken Fox again.
Even though Tang Li Xue could easily run away from the Kraken Fox with her current speed in [Divine Possession] mode, but she deliberately slowed down so the Kraken Fox could still barely catch up with her.
But the deep blue Phoenix of Pride started to complain to Tang Li Xue from inside her Dantian.
In short, the Phoenix of Pride felt extremely unhappy that Yaya suddenly kicked it out from Tang Li Xue's body so their [Perfect a.s.similation] was automatically canceled before Yaya forced Tang Li Xue to enter [Divine Possession] mode.
"Hey, hey, hey~! Stop fuming like that~! That was really an emergency situation, okay?! So, Yaya did not have any other choice than to do that!" Tang Li Xue said to Phoenix of Pride as she tried to pacify its rage.
Both [Perfect a.s.similation] and [Divine Possession] have their own merit.
[Perfect a.s.similation] would give unmatched explosive firepower while [Divine Possession] would give unparalleled speed.
But using [Perfect a.s.similation] against this the Kraken Fox at this time was clearly an improper choice since Tang Li Xue did not plan to fight against this Kraken Fox to death.
Since she planned to lure this Kraken Fox to meet and fight against the other two predator-level foxes, then [Divine Possession]'s unparalleled speed was the best choice!
The Kraken Fox shot high-pressure [Water Cannon] again toward Tang Li Xue to slow down her speed, but Tang Li Xue dodged it by only tilting her furry body to the left side without even looking at it.
'Since Yaya and Phoenix of Pride are already awake from their sleep, it means I can enter [War G.o.ddess Mode] by a.s.similating with both of them, right? Uwehehehe~ I think it should not be impossible to win against one or two predator-level foxes if I enter [War G.o.ddess Mode], right?' Tang Li Xue pondered happily as her confidence started to inflate.
"Sigh... Please, stop thinking of a dangerous thing like that~! Both Yaya and Phoenix of Pride have also become a lot stronger than before, so the energy consumption in [War G.o.ddess Mode] should be many more times than before. Do you want to pa.s.s out in exhaustion again like yesterday?!" The perfect copy reminded Tang Li Xue with a harsh tone.
"Err... We still have [Essence Devouring Technique], right? Can't we cover the energy consumption in [War G.o.ddess Mode] by using it?" Tang Li Xue asked as she felt a bit unwilling.
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "We only practiced... No, you never even practiced [Essence Devouring Technique] by yourself~! I only practiced it for a few days before the Foxes Hunting Festival begin and could only barely reach the entry level. How much energy do you think the entry level [Essence Devouring Technique] can absorb from enemies?"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
'Well, just forget it for now...' Tang Li Xue muttered in her heart.
The Kraken Fox tried every means to catch or slow down Tang Li Xue, but all of them were futile because Tang Li Xue could easily avoid them all.
After five minutes or so had pa.s.sed, the Kraken Fox failed to even touch Tang Li Xue's fur, but they finally arrived at the corridor near the black-spotted white fox!
Just when Tang Li Xue lured the Kraken Fox to turn at the intersection, the black-spotted white fox suddenly shot many ice beams toward Tang Li Xue and Kraken Fox!
BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!!
Even with Tang Li Xue's speed in [Divine Possession] mode, she faced a lot of difficulty to avoid these ice beams!
Her [Wind G.o.d's Eyes] could see every ice beam clearly and predict their trajectory, but her speed was actually much slower than these ice beams!
"d.a.m.n it~!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she gritted her fangs in anger.
Since she could not avoid them, she hastily used [Hurricane Barrier] instead to block them!
A hurricane pillar was instantly created with Tang Li Xue in its center!
When the ice beams struck the hurricane pillar, the extreme coldness instantly spread on the hurricane, and Tang Li Xue's [Hurricane Barrier] was frozen into a huge ice pole!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! BBAAAAAAAAAAAANNNG~!!!
The huge ice pole shattered into countless ice dust!
However, Tang Li Xue's silver furry figure was already disappeared from there!
[Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] plus [Breezing Step]!
Tang Li Xue's movement speed increased even more as she swiftly retreated further from the black-spotted white fox.
Her perfect copy already faced this black-spotted white fox before, so she knew really well that its ice beams were not only powerful but it could also shoot continuously without any pause!
Many of its enormous tentacles were frozen by the ice beams.
The Kraken Fox could only use its other tentacles to destroy the ice on its frozen tentacles, but its frozen tentacles were actually shattered to countless crystal dust instead.
Although the Kraken Fox could regenerate them again in less than ten seconds, the Kraken Fox could still feel the pain and the coldness of freezing and losing its limbs.
The Kraken Fox disregarded Tang Li Xue and stared at the black-spotted white fox full of anger and hatred instead right now.
The Kraken Fox whipped its enormous tentacles toward the black-spotted white fox from different directions!
But the black-spotted white fox was clearly not so easy to bully like Tang Li Xue, and it immediately retaliate by shooting many ice beams from the black spots on its body!
Tang Li Xue swiftly retreated farther again from them, and let them fight against each other even more fiercely!
When Tang Li Xue sneered mockingly at them, her perfect copy contacted Tang Li Xue again from their mental connection.
"Err... I have one good news and one bad news... Which one do you want to hear first?" The perfect copy muttered with a solemn tone.
"Again with this routine?! Stop joking around! Have you got the treasure box yet?! Wait a minute... d.a.m.n it~! Why the h.e.l.l is your luck so bad?!" Tang Li Xue scolded her perfect copy in annoyance, but when she read her perfect copy's mind through their mental connection, she became speechless at her perfect copy's bad luck in that instant.
Even though, Tang Li Xue probably already knew about them since she could read her perfect copy's mind, the perfect copy still chose to say to Tang Li Xue: "Uh, well... The good news is I already find the treasure box..."
"As for the bad news... the treasure box is currently in the hand of that spiky-furred orange fox right now." The perfect copy uttered with a helpless tone.
"I am really sorry... I saw the treasure box first, but that orange fox came suddenly from the opposite corridor and managed to grab the treasure box earlier than me. I cannot match its extremely fast speed at all." The perfect copy apologized to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue hastily used the [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy, and then she used [Twin Moons] divine ability to re-summon her perfect copy to her side.
Tang Li Xue saw the spiky-furred orange fox already sensed her presence when she used [Swap] skill just now, so it stared at Tang Li Xue vigilantly while hugging the treasure box tighter.
"Don't worry! There are still less than twelve minutes left before the time is up... It should be enough for us to s.n.a.t.c.h that treasure box..." Tang Li Xue muttered with a solemn tone to her perfect copy.
BUZZ~!!! BUZZ~!!! BUZZ~!!!
Sparks of orange lightning spread on the spiky-furred orange fox's body as it turned around and turned into a flash of orange lightning!
[Wings of Freedom]'s effect activated!
[Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] plus [Breezing Step]!
Tang Li Xue's furry figure also turned into a silver flash as she quickly chased after the spiky-furred orange fox!
At the same time, Tang Li Xue also activated another divine ability just when the spiky-furred orange fox transformed itself into a flash of orange lightning!
[Mirror of the Moon] activated!
