Chapitre 127: Thousand Year Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent (3)
Oscar's pair of peach blossom eyes immediately shone up,
"Tang San, you are a spirit realm encyclopedia, ah, tremendous, truly tremendous."
Not only he, apart from Xiao Wu, even including Zhao Wuji, everyone looked at him with gazes that had somewhat changed. One must know, spirit beasts just like spirits came in fantastic oddities of every description, and their age and level was even harder to determine. Tang San had barely heard Zhu Zhuqing's words and could still accurately determine the age and strength of the spirit beast they faced, as well as recount all the specific circumstances of this kind of spirit beast, it was clear how well he understood spirits. This was still impossible for Zhao Wuji.
Tang San smiled shyly, saying:
"This is all to Teacher's credit."
Rather than saying Tang San was an encyclopedia, it might be said Grandmaster was. Grandmaster had long ago reached the pinnacle of the spirit research field, and as his disciple, Tang San's apart from his own strength not being weak, knew enough theory to become a teacher at any academy.
Zhao Wuji couldn't help but ask:
"Since you are clear on this kind of spirit beast, then, what is the best method of catching this it?"
Tang San replied without the slightest hesitation:
"Any type of snake is afraid of aggressive birds, and especially afraid of long beaked crane type birds. Although there is no Crane Spirit among us, Fatty's Phoenix is still considered the king of birds. The atmosphere of his spirit should be able to have a certain suppressive effect on this kind of Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent. The Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent is not particularly aggressive, so we need to be careful and must not let it escape."
"It's here."
At that moment, Zhu Zhuqing's voice came just in time, with a low shout. She unexpectedly dropped from the air, and without the slightest amount of fear of a thousand year spirit beast opponent, sharp claws shining simultaneously with the first spirit ring, activated Hell Rush Stab.
That was a huge snake, its appearance resembled Zhu Zhuqing's description, appearing six or seven metres long. On the top of its head was a bright red comb, looking somewhat odious. Its rapidly advancing body arriving just right to run into Zhu Zhuqing. Zhu Zhuqing's Hell Rush Stab directly struck at the crest on its head.
The Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent reacted very quickly, even though it was charging forward at high speed, the snake still hurriedly inclined its head, so Zhu Zhuqing's claw did not strike the crest, but struck on its body, emitting a muffled sound and making the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent's speed immediately drop somewhat.
The Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent seemed startled. The snake's head askew, opening its mouth wide towards Zhu Zhuqing and spraying a seven colored thick fog. Simultaneously, the bright red crest on top of its head shone, and the speed that had just a moment ago been delayed increased once more.
Dai Mubai practically without taking the time to think called out loudly:
"Careful."
What is called concern in chaos, simultaneously alarmed and angry, he immediately activated his thousand year spirit ring ability, White Tiger Vajra Transformation.
Body suddenly enlarging, Dai Mubai charged fiercely in the direction of the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent.
"Seven Treasure Words, second spoken: Speed."
Ning Rongrong's sharp and clear voice echoed at just this moment, Dai Mubai only felt his whole body lighten, speed once again increasing, by just a hair's breadth blocking the abruptly hateful Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent.
With a loud peng sound, Dai Mubai with muffled snort fell back nearly ten metres. But the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpents charging figure also screeched to a sudden stop, enormous body twisting in midair, falling to the ground.
"Its seven colored fog is only to scare people, not poisonous."
Tang San's voice rose timely, and at the same time, on the ground long ago already prepared Blue Silver Grass abruptly rose, firmly tying the falling to the ground Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent's body. Especially twining around her two wings, making it unable to once again take flight.
Fatty's spirit released pressure at full strength, the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent might finally have felt the Evil Fire Phoenix' atmosphere, its body shuddering once. But, after all it was a thousand year spirit beast, and would not so easily resign itself to death. Although temporarily unable to fly, that had not completely affected its ability to move.
Tang San only abruptly felt the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent's body become slippery, not only were Blue Silver Grass' sharp thorns unable to pierce its snake skin, instead letting it rapidly twist down and thread its way out of the Blue Silver Grass. Although it did not fly, its movement speed along the ground was still incomparably fast, between eyeblinks it was already ten metres away.
"Thinking to escape? Would that be so easy?"
Zhao Wuji's deep voice echoed. Following this the third spirit ring over his body shone, the thousand year Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent suddenly stiffened at once, speed substantially dropping. Exactly Zhao Wuji's third spirit ring ability, Gravity Increase.
Immediately following, on Zhao Wuji's body the fourth and fifth two spirit rings simultaneously shone, his body abruptly leaping up. When he once again fell down, with the fourth spirit ring ability Position Trace's effect he had arrived before the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent, simultaneously activating Gravity Crush.
No matter how slippery the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent was, before Zhao Wuji's tyrannical spirit power, it could no longer fully display it.
Dealing with the one thousand year spirit beast, to the Motionless Bright King it was like stretching out a hand and grabbing it. Appearing he not do anything, but in a moment erupting in strength secretly made all the students shiver in their hearts. Tang San also finally understood just how lucky he was that day he and Zhao Wuji fought. If Zhao Wuji on that day had used his spirit abilities in combination, then, he perhaps would not even have had the chance to use hidden weapons.
Zhao Wuji's bear paw stretched out, already pinching the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent's head, lifting it before him, the other hand raising its comb and flicking it once. The Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent confronting the Vigorous Vajra Bear's force, directly passed out from the flick. If it was not for Zhao Wuji needing to preserve its life, it would not even be up to enduring this one finger.
"It's done."
Everyone simultaneously cheered excitedly. Oscar was still just fourteen years old, that's all, showing his excitement in his speech, running up to Zhao Wuji.
Xiao Wu standing next to Tang San lowered her head, her big eyes filled with a disturbed expression,
"Must we hunt and kill spirit beasts?"
Tang San sighed gently, saying:
"The weak are prey to the strong, this is the law of survival. If this snake was even stronger than us, do you think it would let food slip out of the side of its mouth?"
Xiao Wu did not say anything else, but she lowered her head all along, her complexion still somewhat pale.
Zhao Wuji pulled out a short blade from his belt and handed it to Oscar,
"Night is long and dreams are many, set about it. Thrust in under this point from under its comb to pierce its brain at once, and this spirit ring will be yours."
Oscar excitedly took the short blade. Right now, this thousand year spirit beast before him was a lamb waiting for slaughter, on the verge of obtaining the third spirit ability, he was so excited even his hands trembled somewhat.
When Oscar was about to thrust in the knife, suddenly, a hoarse strict shout abruptly echoed,
"Stop."
Immediately following, two people leapt out from the direction the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent had come flying, appearing before everyone.
These two people were one old and one young, both women. The elder looked sixty or seventy years old, a full head of white hair combed very neatly, although she was not young, her mind was extremely hale and hearty, although the wrinkles on her face were not few, it was rosy like a baby's. A pair of eyes bright and shiny. Right hand holding a snake head walking stick three metres long, six spirit rings moving rhythmically up and down her body.
While her body did not show any changes, the spirit rings showed she already used her spirit, without need to ask, the walking stick in her hand should be her spirit.
Following at the old woman's side, was a beautiful young lady, hair even with her ears, looking like sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing neat brilliant clothing, tightly covering her already very well developed figure, big dark brown eyes staring fixedly at that Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent in Zhao Wuji's hand. She also held a snake head walking stick in her hand, but compared to the old woman's it was a bit shorter, only two metres long, the spirit rings on her body were also only two hundred year's.
The old woman and young girl's appearance startled everyone, but as they saw the six spirit rings over the old woman's body, at once they all relaxed their breaths. After all, those seven spirit rings over Zhao Wuji's body could not be inferior, especially those several deep black ten thousand year spirit rings, baring their deterring force.
As Tang San and the others relaxed, the old woman's expression changed somewhat.
Previously she spoke loudly to prevent what she heard Zhao Wuji say to Oscar say, but coming close, she caught sight of Zhao Wuji's seven spirit rings.
Spirit Sage, this was just the outskirts of Star Dou Great Forest, why would a Spirit Sage appear? The old woman's heart immediately dropped, knowing today's demand might not turn out well.
"What's the matter?"
Zhao Wuji shot the old woman a glance, as his gaze fell on that snake head walking stick in her hand, in his heart he couldn't help but recall a person, and his voice could not at all be considered too harsh, sounding instead somewhat gentle. This very understandably made Dai Mubai feel rather flabbergasted. The Motionless Bright King indeed never had a good face towards people that did not measure up to his strength, especially under circumstances like these where the other side clearly wanted the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent.
The old woman coughed, making her facial expression soften,
"Greetings, respected Spirit Sage, can't you give this Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent to this child."
Zhao Wuji's one hand pinched the Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent, making a meaningful expression towards Oscar, hinting he first wait a moment, turning to the old woman saying:
"Why?"
The old woman's mind by now seemed to already have relaxed somewhat,
"Because we found this snake first, and moreover took the lead in hunting it. Otherwise, why would we still have continuously followed its trail until now?"
