Chapter 561: Tang Li Xue's New Plan!
'Hehehe... So, it is like this~! As long as I 'stop moving and does nothing' when the fox head statue stared at us, then everything will be all right~! And also, it will never heed anything we do when it did not look in this direction!' Tang Li Xue happily concluded in her heart.
Even if Tang Li Xue made the entire corridor collapse or set countless traps in the entire corridor, the fox head statue would not care as long as Tang Li Xue did them before it stared in their direction like now.
'Uwehehehehe~! Then this game will be too easy for me~!' Tang Li Xue secretly snickered in her heart.
Yes, what Tang Li Xue was planning to do right now was to slow down the other foxes while kept draining their energy to replenish hers!
Tang Li Xue already thought of several crafty tricks using her divine abilities in her mind when all of the foxes in the corridor did not dare to move or breathe as the fox head statue kept staring at them.
But the fox head statue did not stare at them for too long this time.
After less than one minute, the fox head statue already turned around and only showed its tails.
Tang Li Xue hastily activated her [Essence Devouring Technique] again!
The other three foxes glared menacingly at Tang Li Xue in anger as they prepared themselves to break free from Tang Li Xue's wire webs, stone cages, and all other restrictions.
Who knew the fox head statue only turned around for less than one second, then it spun so quickly and stared at them again!
Tang Li Xue's heart almost jumped into her throat in shock and fright as she swiftly canceled her [Essence Devouring Technique].
However, the fox head statue's merciless eyes were already s.h.i.+ning with crimson light and shot destructive rays!
'd.a.m.n it~! Who is its target?! Is it me or...' Tang Li Xue thought nervously as she almost reflexively used her [Shadow Flash] to avoid the destructive rays.
But she quickly suppressed it and decided to stand still, then do nothing as usual.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The destructive rays' target was actually the apricot-colored fox!
Without even having any chance to shout or react, the apricot-colored fox's body shattered to pieces under the destructive rays' attack, and scattered as a group of white lights, then disappeared.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to gulp her saliva nervously, but she hastily resisted the urge.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue could not sweat in her fox form, if not, her cold sweat might already fall onto the floor and create a puddle of water right now.
'Err... Or maybe not... I wonder if sweating also counts as doing something or not? Will I get eliminated if I am sweating in my human form? Well, forget it... This is not the time for me to think about something unimportant like that...' Tang Li Xue started to clear all her distracting thoughts.
To be honest, the surrounding atmosphere was really tense right now...
Because all the foxes in this corridor including Tang Li Xue realized that the fox head statue was secretly stepping up the difficulty level of this game.
Yes, the movement speed and reaction speed of the fox head statue suddenly increased a lot just now!
'Does this signing to us that this game actually has a time limit? The longer it takes for us to reach the fox head statue, the higher the difficulty would increase?' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
ndsnvl.cm
Just a few minutes ago, she planned to slowly drain the energy from other foxes and stall for more time to rest until she fully recovered before she would end this treasure game.
However, it seems her plan was no longer feasible right now.
The fox head statue's sudden last move almost made her fail to react, if it increased the difficulty level once more, even Tang Li Xue would not be able to react on time anymore unless she entered [Divine Possession] with Yaya again.
'Never mind... At worst, I will just look for another nearest pillar of golden light and quickly partic.i.p.ate in another treasure game if the crimson skies domain still persists outside.' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
'Since I could not stall for more time here anymore, it is better to think about how to win this treasure game as soon as possible before the difficulty increased again.' Tang Li Xue began to think about the way to win this treasure game carefully.
When Tang Li Xue was still in deep thought, the fox head statue finally turned around and stopped staring at them after two minutes had pa.s.sed.
The remaining two foxes hastily used this chance to break free from all of Tang Li Xue's restrictions!
[Shadow Blades]!
[Freezing Impact]!
BBBAAAAAAAAANNNG~!
All of Tang Li Xue's wire webs, stone cages, and other restrictions shattered at once under the two foxes' simultaneous attacking skills!
Then both of them began to launch their counterattack on Tang Li Xue!
But before the two of them could do anything, Tang Li Xue had already launched her next moves to both of them!
[Energy Manipulation], Shackling Chain!
Plus [Mother Earth's Gift], Stone Pillars!
Combo technique, Crucifixion!
The remaining two foxes found themselves tied to the stone pillar, the moment when they broke free from Tang Li Xue's previous restrictions!
After that, Tang Li Xue activated her [Essence Devouring Technique] again to drain their energy and stamina without any hesitation!
"Stop your futile resistance and be good foxes~! Just let me drain you two until dry~!" Tang Li Xue spoke to them in a teasing tone.
'Humph~! So what if you two can break free from my restrictions?! I can just create another restriction again and again until I suck the two of you to dry! Uhhh... Wait a minute, why it suddenly sounds so lewd... No, no, no, I mean... This should be my previous plan! This outdated tactic is no longer good. I should think and change to a new plan soon.' Tang Li Xue suddenly realized in her heart.
However, the fox head statue already swiftly turned around and stared in their direction again!
Tang Li Xue hastily canceled her [Essence Devouring Technique], then halted her breathing and movement, but she secretly cursed and insulted the fox head statue for hundred times in her heart.
'Fuuuhhhh... Calm down, Tang Li Xue~! There is no use for you to get so p.i.s.sed off at a mere sh*tty stone statue~!' Tang Li Xue quickly calmed down her annoyance.
It was actually very normal for Tang Li Xue to be so p.i.s.sed off at the fox head statue right now because only two or three seconds had pa.s.sed, and the fox head statue already stared at them again!
It seems even the time for them to do anything was greatly shortened right now as the difficulty level was increased...
If the difficulty level increased again once more, their time to do anything might be only 0,1 to 0,5 seconds.
'd.a.m.n it~! What the h.e.l.l is wrong with this game?! Our time to move decreased from a few minutes to a few seconds?! Are you kidding me?!' Tang Li Xue complained in frustration.
The fox head statue turned around again and stopped staring at them after dozen seconds.
BAAAAAAAANNNG~!
The two other foxes broke free from Tang Li Xue's restriction again, but Tang Li Xue did not plan to restrict them again this time.
Because her current plan was to win this treasure game as soon as possible before the difficulty increased again!
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, the other two foxes did not plan to let her go just like that!
The other two foxes launched their attacks on Tang Li Xue in anger!
[Shadow Blades]!
[Icy Frost Cones]!
Tang Li Xue immediately used her [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] to avoid their attacks and swiftly keep her distance from them!
'The fastest way to defeat both of them is by using [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes], but that divine ability is too exhausting for the current me. Moreover, I need to save my stamina and energy to resist the crimson skies domain later.' Tang Li Xue's mind began to think faster to keep up with the pace of their battle and the fox head statue's timing.
Entering [Perfect a.s.similation] in this situation was also self-defeating since the fox head statue would surely eliminate Tang Li Xue when it saw the dancing deep blue Flame of Pride that shrouded her entire body in [Perfect a.s.similation] mode.
'Sigh... Let's just run away from them quickly rather than wasting my time and energy to keep fighting meaninglessly against them like this...' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
Tang Li Xue hastily turned away from the other two foxes while using her [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] again to rush swiftly toward the fox head statue!
But the fox head statue had turned around once more and stared at them for the umpteenth time!
Tang Li Xue and the other two foxes instantly halted their breath and movement again.
BAAAAAAAAANNNG~!
However, one of the two other foxes, the shadow fox, got struck by something invisible again until its body was thrown off and crashed into the corridor's wall!
The eyes of the fox head statue shone with crimson light and mercilessly shot its destructive rays at the shadow fox!
"No, how could I..." The shadow fox muttered in disbelief, then it stared at the icy blue fox in extreme fury.
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
But before the shadow fox could finish its words or do anything to the icy blue fox, the destructive rays already struck its body until it shattered to pieces and scattered as a group of white lights.
