254: Chapter 254 A Scheme of Kindness!
On the shaft of the long spear, next to the sixty-eight streaks of Spear Aura that were already dense enough to make one dizzy...
Suddenly, another ten streaks of Spear Aura instantly condensed and stacked upon them!
Seventy-eight streaks of Spear Aura!
The technique of Layered Aura increased in power once again!
The sharp edge and momentum of the long spear suddenly rose to another level!
This change came too abruptly; the originally balanced confrontation was instantly shattered!
"Break!"
Chila—!
The incredibly tough vines were easily torn apart, their internal structure destroyed by the violent Spear Aura and blood qi!
Qin Yan pressed his advantage, his Spear Technique unfolding like a violent storm!
Performing high-speed, high-frequency penetrating strikes!
"Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!"
The spear shadows merged into one...
In just a few short breaths—
"Boom!!"
An explosion more violent than any before rang out!
The thick black vine that had fused from two vines completely exploded.
Turning into a large cloud of thick, rolling black mist, it slowly dissipated.
Having resolved this greatest threat, Qin Yan panted slightly, his gaze sweeping across the battlefield once more.
Jia Shan was already in a precarious situation; although Su Liuli was suppressing her opponent, she couldn't pull away in the short term.
"We can't keep fighting separately like this; we must change our strategy!"
His gaze lingered on Su Liuli for a moment, his thoughts racing.
This mysterious teammate's strength was unfathomable, yet she had always been holding back.
Even when he was in danger just now, she hadn't given her full effort to come to his aid...
He couldn't let her continue being so "relaxed" anymore.
Thinking of this, Qin Yan adjusted his direction. Instead of rushing directly toward the main body of the Evil Spirit, he sped toward Su Liuli's battle circle.
"Miss Liuli, I've come to help you!"
He spoke loudly, his tone sounding quite "enthusiastic."
His movements were not slow at all; before his voice had even faded, he had already arrived at Su Liuli's side, carrying a sharp spear momentum.
With a shake of his long spear, he forcefully cut into the battle.
The long whip in Su Liuli's hand paused slightly as she turned her head.
Her cold gaze fell on Qin Yan's face, and a half-smile actually appeared at the corner of her lips.
She didn't refuse; the whip shadows in her hand simply became a bit more erratic.
Coordinating with Qin Yan's spear momentum, the two joined forces, and their power increased greatly.
Although those vines were strengthened, after Qin Yan joined as fresh support, they were immediately overwhelmed.
In just over a dozen rounds, under the intertwining of Spear Light and whip shadows, they were twisted into pieces and finally collapsed with a bang.
"Miss Liuli is indeed formidable."
Qin Yan retracted his spear, seemingly praising her sincerely, then changed the subject, "But brother Jia Shan's situation is critical. I'll go lend him a hand.
I'll have to trouble Miss Liuli to use long-range means to pin down the Evil Spirit's main body first, slowing its recovery and counterattack speed.
I'll help brother Jia Shan eliminate the threat as quickly as possible, and then we'll join forces to deal with the main body!"
Hearing this, Su Liuli's elegant eyebrows arched slightly, and those eyes that seemed capable of seeing through people's hearts lingered on Qin Yan's face for a moment.
Then, she actually broke into a smile, the demonic and playful hint in that smile growing even stronger:
"Alright."
She agreed exceptionally readily, without even raising any objections or conditions.
Qin Yan was slightly stunned, finding this woman's mind increasingly difficult to fathom.
But since she had agreed, the plan could proceed.
"Good! Then the main body will be left to you for now, Miss!"
Regardless of what Su Liuli was calculating, forcing her to share the pressure and consume her strength right now was ultimately beneficial to him.
If he ended up exhausted while she remained in perfect condition, who knew what this unfathomable woman might do?
Su Liuli said no more, turned, and walked toward the main body of the Vine Evil Spirit with light steps.
At a relatively safe distance from the main body, she stopped.
This distance ensured both the effectiveness of her attacks and enough reaction time should the main body suddenly lash out.
With a flick of her wrist, the dark red long whip pulsed with light and suddenly lengthened!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The dark red whip shadows turned into streaks of crimson lightning, accurately and swiftly lashing at the roots of the Vine Evil Spirit!
Each lash that fell exploded into a small cloud of black mist, leaving a faint scorch mark on the ink-black body.
Although the damage seemed minor, it was relentless.
The Vine Evil Spirit seemed provoked by this "itch-scratching" continuous attack, its trunk trembling slightly.
The black flower bud on its head closed and opened, but it didn't attack Su Liuli; it only caused the black mist around its body to churn more violently.
Seen from a distance, the Evil Spirit's massive body was shrouded in black mist under the constant lashing of the crimson whip shadows.
With scorch marks dotted all over, it truly looked somewhat "pathetic."
On Qin Yan's side, he had quickly sped to Jia Shan's side.
Jia Shan was currently at the end of his rope, relying entirely on his thick armor to hold on. Without a word, Qin Yan thrust his spear and joined the battle.
The vine that had originally suppressed Jia Shan was soon pierced through its core by Qin Yan's matchless Spear Technique and exploded.
Freed, Jia Shan panted heavily, his gaze toward Qin Yan filled with gratitude and shock.
This human youth's strength, especially those endless and amazingly powerful streaks of Spear Aura...
Was even more terrifying than the renowned genius of his tribe, Black Tortoise!
"Let's go, we're going to deal with the main body!"
Qin Yan called out and, leading Jia Shan, returned to the area where Su Liuli was.
At this moment, Su Liuli was still unhurriedly swinging her long whip, "suppressing" the Evil Spirit's main body from a distance.
Seeing Qin Yan and Jia Shan approach, she stopped her movements.
She looked at the two of them calmly—more accurately, she looked at Qin Yan.
"You two attack the roots from the front."
"I will launch lethal attacks on its stem from the flanks and the rear.
Me attacking alone from a distance is too inefficient."
She paused, casting her gaze toward the intense main battlefield in the distance.
The outer layer of evil spirits was being continuously replenished..
The geniuses' defensive line was already in a precarious state, and the number of corpses on the ground was increasing.
If they couldn't resolve this limit-level Evil Spirit quickly and seize or destroy the yimu spirit heart, once the outer defense was breached and the Evil Spirits attacked from both inside and out...
Then all of them would be doomed!
The situation had reached its most critical moment.
Qin Yan and Jia Shan exchanged a glance and nodded.
Su Liuli's proposal was the most reasonable and efficient tactic currently.
Furthermore, after repeated heavy blows, the black mist churning around the Vine Evil Spirit had become thin and dim.
On the surface, the threat seemed much less than before, and victory appeared within reach.
The three quickly exchanged a look and reached a simple tactical agreement:
Jia Shan, with the strongest defense, would stay at the very front to bear any potential frontal impact;
Qin Yan, with the sharpest attack power, would follow closely behind, responsible for the main output;
While Su Liuli remained at a relatively safe distance, performing continuous long-range attacks with her long whip.
Seeing Su Liuli always standing steadily in the distance, with whip shadows flying but never truly putting herself in danger, the string of vigilance in Qin Yan's heart didn't loosen at all.
