265: Chapter 265 A Deadly Situation

In the Arena, as a Tier 6 Esper, Leng You could not be taken down so easily.

Almost at the same moment Xing Yaoyan used Swap to appear, a protective shield composed of pale spiritual energy formed instantly around him, steadily blocking her claw strike with a metallic "clank."

"While I admit your attacks are bizarre, I am a Tier 6, after all. In terms of pure spiritual energy strength, it is impossible for you to break my defense... What!"

Leng You said with a disdainful sneer, but soon, he suddenly noticed that the black aura clinging to this Star Cult Priest was actually slowly transferring onto his spiritual energy shield.

It wrapped around him like black flames, rapidly corroding his spiritual energy shield and emitting a "sizzling" sound.

What made him feel even more troubled was that this black aura seemed to be devouring his spiritual energy to expand itself. Although the amount devoured was minimal, it was still keenly perceived by him.

The expression on Xing Yaoyan's face, hidden behind her hood, shifted slightly. She had not expected that the black energy formed by the Fusion of the Breath of the Abyss and the Power Of Will would have such strong adhesion and corrosive effects.

Back when she was in the Arena, those Tier 3 Vicious Beasts were all instantly killed by this move of hers, so she had not discovered this characteristic at the time. Moreover, it seemed that the more Breath of the Abyss she injected, the stronger the corrosiveness of this power became. Wasn't this just the perfect "digestive tablet" for her Star Swallowing Art...

"Whoosh!"

A sharp whistling sound suddenly came from beside her ear. Xing Yaoyan clicked her tongue internally and had to temporarily abandon her attack on Leng You, quickly activating "Mist Form" to evade the powerful energy arrow.

Given her current strength, she could not yet instantly digest the energy from this Tier 5 arrow, so she had to avoid its edge for now.

"Swish! Swish! Swish..."

Before she could recover, a rain of arrows flew towards her.

The opponent clearly no longer cared about the consumption of spiritual energy; they just wanted to suppress her in place.

Xing Yaoyan had no choice but to activate "Mist Form" again to evade. During the intervals of "Mist Form," she only used the black Power Of Will around her body to defend.

These arrows were numerous but their intensity was relatively dispersed, so enduring them briefly would not cause much damage to her body.

Both sides seemed to be at a stalemate, with neither being able to do anything to the other.

But Xing Yaoyan's heart was as calm as a deep pool. She knew that such an attack from the opponent could not last long; she just needed to wait for their spiritual energy to be exhausted.

Near the entrance, Qian Mo secretly turned his head and asked Ming, "Mr. Ming, shall we not make a move now?"

"It is not yet time." Ming responded briefly and said nothing more.

A faint light flickered in his eyes.

Although it currently appeared that the opponent was just a Tier 4 Star Cult Priest with bizarre methods, who could guarantee that she was the only one who had come?

Given that they had appeared, the fact that the opponent still dared to attack so boldly and did not take them seriously at all suggested that the opponent clearly had a backup plan.

Moreover, Leng You clearly had the upper hand, so safety was not an issue for now.

The best course of action for them right now was to hold the line, concentrate on observing the hidden dangers, and wait and see...

In the Arena, Leng You, who had been quietly observing from a distance, suddenly sneered, as if he had already completely seen through the enemy's background.

He suddenly raised his hand towards the Star Cult Priest who had just performed a "Mist Form," and a strange spiritual energy fluctuation surged towards her like a tidal wave.

"Soul Washing!"

At this moment, Xing Yaoyan happened to be in the interval between two "Mist Form" activations; she had no way to activate the skill to dodge.

Furthermore, his attack was a fan-shaped area launched forward from himself as the center, completely covering the entire safe house, so he was not afraid of the opponent evading through that bizarre teleportation ability.

"Click!"

At the same time, an ornately decorated handgun appeared out of thin air in Leng You's hand.

This gun was a special weapon designed for Espers. The bullets it fired were dense energy beams capable of penetrating Tier 6 spiritual energy shields; the only drawback was that it required a certain amount of time to charge.

He only needed the opponent to be briefly distracted by his "Soul Washing" attack, and he would have enough time to finish charging the weapon in his hand and launch this final, fatal blow.

"Although my Superpower is not very offensive, it is still very useful at critical moments..." Leng You revealed a cruel smile, as if he had already seen the opponent die under his perfect finishing move.

Seizing the characteristics of the opponent's ability to plan a counterattack, perfectly utilizing his own Superpower characteristics to cause control, and finally pulling out the long-hidden trump card to complete the final blow...

Everything was so seamless...

"Unfortunately... these weaknesses of mine are exactly what I wanted you to see..."

Seeing this sissy finally unable to hold back, the corners of Xing Yaoyan's mouth curled up involuntarily.

She had long been waiting for Leng You to activate his Superpower...

Leng You, over there, saw this expression on the opponent, and a bad premonition rushed into his heart.

However... it was already too late...

The moment his Superpower successfully hit the seemingly defenseless white-robed woman, the scene before his eyes changed instantly. The surrounding environment turned from a safe house into a realm of extreme darkness, and a figure he would never forget in his life suddenly appeared before him.

That figure was surrounded by black liquid; the black liquid looked as if it were dripping down from the darkness in the environment, emitting a filthy, evil aura...

"Don't..." The deepest fear in his memory was awakened, and Leng You's pupils instantly dilated.

But soon, his expression spiraled out of control.

He saw... the figure lifted its head, and a red light shone from the black shadow on its face...

In the outside world.

Just as Leng You lost his focus, the archer behind him collapsed instantly like a puppet that had lost control, and the energy arrows that had been condensed all dissipated.

He was originally suffering from severe overdraft of spiritual energy, and after losing Leng You's control, his aura instantly withered. It looked like he would not live much longer either.

Seeing this scene, Xing Yaoyan was undoubtedly ecstatic.

This move was something she had extracted through the analysis of the Power Of Will after she had previously "captured" and "imprisoned" Huan Wuxing—'Fear Memory.' It could invade the opponent's mental space through a mental connection, causing them to fall into a scene from the deepest part of their own heart that they feared most.

Because of her strength, her Mental Energy was not yet strong enough to establish such a powerful mental connection with an opponent in the real world, so she could not actively use this skill.

However, Leng You's "Soul Washing" essentially required establishing a mental connection with the opponent, so this move could be considered a trump card Xing Yaoyan had specially prepared for him!

"Not good!"

Ming was the first to react and was about to burst out with spiritual energy, preparing to save the situation.

But at the next moment, a terrifying, extreme sense of oppression struck instantly, like a bucket of cold water that instantly extinguished his newly tensed heart.

"Tier 8..."

Looking at the stunner floating in mid-air before him, wrapped in a sexy outfit, Ming involuntarily swallowed hard. He recognized the identity of the newcomer.

"Star Cult First Seat... Phantom Demon..."
