69: Chapter 69 Damn! It's a trap!

Having already been heavily poisoned, and now pierced by the Piercing Poison Arrow, the poison stacks within the Great Horned Bull King and the other Beast Kings surged once again, causing their HP to drop at an even faster rate.

The Swift Wind Wolf King, the only one to dodge the Piercing Poison Arrow, was in no better shape.

The Corrosive Poison Barrier had not only corroded away all of its fur but also severely corroded its entire respiratory tract, making it nearly impossible to breathe.

Only then did the Beast Kings understand why the Soul-Devouring Tiger King had made such a crazy move.

This human's strength was truly terrifying.

Feeling their HP continuously draining away, the Beast Kings felt an inexplicable palpitation. If they didn't quickly eliminate the human before them, they feared they would all lose their lives here today.

It was hateful that the damned Soul-Devouring Tiger King had stirred up so much trouble only to flee on its own while they were attacking.

Without the slightest hesitation, the few Beast Kings immediately unleashed their ultimate moves toward Tang Mo again.

"Mountain-Piercing Strike!"

"Ape Demon Break!"

"Four-Tail Heaven Sealing Art!"

"Wind Scar!"

The four attacks landed solidly on Tang Mo, and a pink beam of light enveloped him completely before he vanished into the Poison Barrier.

Seeing that they had finally eliminated the human before them, the Beast Kings dared not pause for a second and scrambled toward the outside of the Poison Barrier.

Although visibility inside the Poison Barrier was very low, for Beast Kings who had lived here for years, they could find the right path even with their eyes closed.

But the more they ran, the more alarmed the Beast Kings became. The bizarre Poison Barrier before them seemed endless; no matter how desperately they sprinted, they couldn't escape.

The Beast Kings' HP was down to only one-third, and the HP of the Vajra Ape King and the Four-Tailed Fox King was even less than that.

On the other side of the Poison Barrier, Tang Mo pushed his speed to the limit, barely managing to keep the Beast Kings trapped within the Poison Barrier.

The one just hit by the Beast Kings was merely Tang Mo's Poison Clone.

Back when he first engaged the Beast Kings, Tang Mo had already swapped positions with his Poison Clone to guard against the Beast Kings' ultimate killing moves.

After attacking with all their might and then running frantically, the Beast Kings had reached their limit.

It wasn't that their physical constitution was poor, but rather that their mouths, noses, and respiratory tracts had already been corroded. Every breath was accompanied by intense pain; not just in their mouths and noses, but even their lungs and internal organs were the same.

After all this turmoil, even though they had awakened their bloodlines, they couldn't withstand the pain coming from their internal organs.

The Four-Tailed Fox King was the first to give in and collapsed, followed by the Vajra Ape King.

【Killed Level 60 Four-Tailed Fox King, EXP +201350, Poison Damage +2, Stamina +1, Spirit +0.1】

【Obtained Silver-grade Fox Fur Magic Hat, Spirit +500, Charisma +10, Charm Resistance +10%, Wearing Requirement: Level 60】

【Obtained Gold-grade Vajra Bracers, Strength +2000, Physical Damage +20%, Critical Hit +20%, Active Skill: Ape Demon Break, Wearing Requirement: Level 60】

Relying on its thick HP, the Great Horned Bull King's situation was similar to the Swift Wind Wolf King's, but it was also in critical condition.

"Moo~!"

"Awoo~!"

At this life-or-death moment, the Great Horned Bull King and the Swift Wind Wolf King directly activated their bloodline powers.

The Great Horned Bull King advanced into the Dark Water Bull King, and the Swift Wind Wolf King successfully transformed into the Howling Moon Wolf King.

After the successful advancement, both of their HP rose again, and the one-third HP they had remaining immediately recovered to half their health bar.

Watching their transformation, a disdainful smile curled on Tang Mo's lips.

"What's the use of having high HP? As long as you're contaminated with my poison, even if you manage to escape from the Corrosive Poison Barrier, I'm afraid you won't escape death."

The furious Dark Water Bull King and Howling Moon Wolf King turned and stared fixedly at the Poison Barrier, wishing they could tear Tang Mo, who was hiding inside, into pieces.

Even as stupid as they were, they understood that the previous attack hadn't truly killed Tang Mo.

As long as they eliminated the person casting the skill, then all of this would end.

The Dark Water Bull King and Howling Moon Wolf King thought this way, and without slacking their pace, they charged back into the Poison Barrier like a storm.

After advancing, the speed of both the Dark Water Bull King and the Howling Moon Wolf King had been greatly enhanced. Even though Tang Mo tried his best to manipulate the movement of the Poison Barrier, he couldn't keep up with their speed.

In an instant, countless figures of Tang Mo appeared before the Dark Water Bull King and the Howling Moon Wolf King, and the two Beast Kings launched attacks directly at Tang Mo.

But no matter how they attacked, as soon as one Tang Mo was dispersed, another would pop out, as if they could never be killed off completely.

After all this trouble, the poison inside the Dark Water Bull King and the Howling Moon Wolf King increased by several more layers, and the HP they had just recovered hit rock bottom.

【Killed Level 60 Dark Water Bull King, EXP +273101, Poison Damage +2, Stamina +1, Spirit +0.1】

【Obtained Gold-grade Bull Horn Helmet, Stamina +4000, Damage Reduction +20%, Critical Hit +20%, Active Skill: Bull Horn Charge, Wearing Requirement: Level 60】

【Obtained Gold-grade Swift Wind Wolf Boots, Agility +3000, Evasion +20%, Attack Speed +20%, Active Skill: Sprint, Wearing Requirement: Level 70】

"Not bad at all, four Beast Kings dropped three pieces of Gold-grade equipment."

Tang Mo walked forward with a smile and collected all the equipment. Just as he was about to turn around, he heard another notification sound.

【Killed Level 50 Soul-Devouring Tiger King, EXP +174121, Poison Damage +2, Stamina +1, Spirit +0.1】

【Obtained Silver-grade Tiger Skin Breastplate, Stamina +1000, Magic Damage Reduction +10%, Wearing Requirement: Level 50】

【Detected dropped items are too far away, please go and pick them up as soon as possible.】

Tang Mo was stunned, but he quickly realized that the Soul-Devouring Tiger King must have accidentally swallowed some Poison Rain, which was how it got poisoned to death.

You have to know, Tang Mo's poison had no time limit.

Thus, Tang Mo set off in the direction where the Soul-Devouring Tiger King had fled. Before long, he found the corpse of the Soul-Devouring Tiger King. After picking up the equipment on the ground, Tang Mo continued walking forward.

When he arrived at the cave entrance again, Tang Mo curiously stopped in his tracks.

"The Soul-Devouring Tiger King earlier absolutely refused to move forward; the Beast King ahead is probably extremely powerful, so much so that even the Soul-Devouring Tiger King dared not easily provoke it."

"Should I go over and take a look?"

Just as Tang Mo was hesitating, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from outside the Poison Barrier, "Tang Mo! Is that you?"

Tang Mo was stunned for a moment. Wasn't this Tu Xiaoxia's voice?

After the Poison Barrier dispersed, Tang Mo began to carefully walk deep into the jungle.

Coming into view was a giant black bear, about the size of five or six adult grizzly bears, staring fixedly at Tang Mo.

"Damn! It's a trap!"
