Tier 6 magical beasts are probably the limit of what Lu Shi can handle at this stage. If she encounters any stronger magical beasts, she'll have to run away.
However, this green tea horse is very good-looking and would make a great mount.
[Thunderfall]
Lu Shi immediately started with a lightning-based magic attack.
Hit...
A hair.
It really hit the mark.
The golden mane on the sacred Pegasus suddenly stood on end.
A powerful golden sheen rose from the horse's mane, forming a yellow halo around its body.
The lightning struck the barrier of light. Electricity surged across the barrier, but none of it struck the sacred pegasus itself.
"Oh, it's you again, beautiful human!"
The mature woman's voice echoed in her mind once more. But Lu Shi didn't speak; instead of greeting, she launched an attack, simultaneously sending out dragon and phoenix fireballs with both hands.
Hit again... the light barrier.
Neither of the two fireballs could break through the barrier of light. The fireballs exploded and vanished into nothingness.
At this moment, the sacred pegasus straightened up, snorted, and slowly unfolded its wings.
Suddenly, two wind blades shot out from the wings. The blue crescent-shaped wind blades, moving at a speed invisible to the naked eye, slashed towards Lu Shi from above and below.
The wind track flashed, and Lu Shi jumped up on the spot.
He dodged the wind blade that slashed down his lower body.
However, being in the air, Lu Shi had no choice but to raise her hands and cross them to receive the incoming wind blades.
The illusionary gold appeared.
The wind blades sliced through, making a piercing, screeching sound that made one's teeth ache.
Lu Shi was also forced back to the ground by the powerful impact, her chest heaving and blood churning in her throat.
However, Lu Shi didn't stop, swinging her right hand and firing three Shadow Nails at the Sacred Pegasus. She used the technique of firing three nails at the same point.
The first Shadow Spike was blocked by the light barrier and vanished. The second one followed, causing the light barrier to ripple. The last one struck the same spot again, finally causing a crack to appear in the light barrier.
Lu Shi's lips curled up; it was helpful.
The light wall shook, the tiny cracks disappeared, and the light wall returned to its original state.
"Humans, I, the being of light, despise dark magic!" The Holy Pegasus was clearly angry, and its voice rose considerably.
Lu Shi took a breath, thinking to herself, "This 'green tea horse' is basically a mage with a shield. Without breaking that shield, I can't do any damage. Alright, I'll risk it."
"Little Commander, add some Fireball spells..."
[You have begun practicing Fireball, burning 80G of monster souls, and your Fireball level has increased to 8.]
[You have begun practicing Fireball, burning 90G of monster souls, and your Fireball level has increased to 9.]
[You have begun practicing Fireball, burning 100G of monster souls, and your Fireball level has increased to 10.]
[Fireball skill level 10, increased power, enhanced control]
[Special Ability: Flame Possession]
[Current remaining monster soul weight: 448G]
...
Possessed by flames?
What the hell is this?
Lu Shi increasingly felt that her basic knowledge of magic was too shallow; she was a complete magic idiot, knowing nothing at all.
Never mind, I'll give it a try.
He thrust out the phoenix flames with his left hand.
However, this time, the fireball did not launch.
Flames in the shape of a phoenix appeared behind Lu Shi, forming a phantom image of a phoenix. This added a touch of nobility and mystical charm to Lu Shi's already stunning beauty.
"Human, are you playing with fire and burning yourself? How dare you let the phantom of a phoenix possess you? How could your mere human body possibly withstand it? Hahaha," the Holy Pegasus mocked.
“You’re right.” Lu Shi immediately dispelled the phoenix flames.
My small human body simply couldn't withstand it. After being possessed for just a few seconds, I felt completely drained, and my whole body was burning intensely.
Before it even hits anyone, it's already melting away.
This move is clearly a hand-to-hand combat technique.
Chicken ribs.
I never imagined that the special ability of level 10 Fireball would be like this.
I'm a human, not a humanoid monster!
Lu Shi was still complaining when two more wind blades shot over from the Divine Pegasus.
His body swayed, using the wind rails to accelerate, he dodged and continued moving. While running, Lu Shi gritted his teeth; if fire didn't work, there was always lightning.
I have so many monster souls now, I'm just nourishing them for a thousand days to use them for a short time.
"Little Commander, continue upgrading Lightning Strike."
[You have begun practicing Lightning Strike, burning 80G of monster souls, and your Lightning Strike level has been increased to level 8.]
[You have begun practicing Lightning Strike, burning 90G of monster souls, and your Lightning Strike level has been increased to level 9.]
[You have begun practicing Lightning Strike, burning 100G of monster souls, and your Lightning Strike level has been increased to level 10.]
[Lightning Strike Level 10, increased power, enhanced paralysis effect]
[Special Ability: Thunder Spear]
[Current remaining monster soul weight: 178G]
...
Lei Mao, just from the name, sounds like a formidable fighter.
Lu Shi was secretly pleased.
He dodged another wind blade and summoned a lightning strike with his right hand.
This time, what fell from the sky was a spear.
To be precise, it is a spear composed entirely of lightning.
The lightning spear, carrying immense penetrating power and the force of thunder, pierced directly towards the head of the sacred pegasus.
A barrier of light appeared, and the lightning spear pierced it directly.
The immense force caused cracks to appear in the light barrier.
Subsequently, the cracks rapidly expanded, spreading in all directions.
Even after the lightning spear's power was exhausted, the light barrier did not break; it just looked rather alarming.
The sacred pegasus let out a triumphant laugh.
But her smile froze.
Two more lightning spears descended from the sky.
For the first time since the start of the fight, the Holy Pegasus chose to dodge.
One lightning spear dodged, but the other still struck the light barrier, causing it, which had not yet fully recovered, to shake violently, as if it might shatter completely at any moment.
"Humans, pause!" the sacred pegasus flew to the side and hurriedly said.
"If you can't beat them, call a timeout. You've got my style." Lu Shi replied smugly, his hands crackling with lightning. "So, what do you want?"
The sacred pegasus breathed a sigh of relief, straightened its back, and said, "We can talk this over..."
Before he could finish speaking, two more lightning spears pierced down mercilessly.
Then, the sound of the light barrier shattering completely was heard.
"Human, you are despicable and shameless!" came the angry voice of the Holy Pegasus.
"Sorry, but I, Lu Shi, am even more shameless than that beast Wen, hehe!" Lu Shi didn't care about the Holy Pegasus's impotent rage. The wind rail moved forward, and shadow spikes shot out, targeting the two wings on the Holy Pegasus's back.
If this horse were to take flight, and I didn't have the means to fly, I really wouldn't be able to catch it.
Now that its glowing tortoise shell is broken, it's time to beat the dog that's fallen into the water... a fallen horse.
The Holy Pegasus dodged one Shadow Spike, but two more struck its left wing. Instantly, the wing drooped and could not be raised.
"Human, let's talk this out." The sacred Pegasus leaned slightly to the side, facing Lu Shi who was gradually approaching, and said again.
"Alright, you can be my mount, and we'll call it even." Lu Shi waved his hand magnanimously.
This sacred Pegasus Green Tea, despite being just a green tea, is undeniably beautiful and can even fly.
For Lu Shi, who is extremely particular about appearances, it is indeed a good mount.
"Human, you provoked me first, and now you're turning around and blaming me. Do you even have any morals?" the Holy Pegasus retorted indignantly.
"I, Lu Shi, don't talk about morality with monsters. You're no better. Last time I was just passing by, and you tried to kill me. This time I just struck first. Otherwise, if we were passing by, you green tea would have attacked us first too." Lu Shi saw through this green tea horse's true nature at a glance.
Having its thoughts exposed, the sacred pegasus was a little embarrassed, but it still insisted, "You are not a summoning mage, so you can't form a contract with me to summon me. Therefore, I cannot be your mount."
"Oh, what a coincidence!" Lu Shi said happily, "I can also perform contract summoning!"
A strange silver light began to flash in his hand.
"Are you really human?" The Holy Pegasus was stunned.
"Be good and don't move, cooperate. I'm not familiar with this magic, and I don't know what will happen if it fails," Lu Shi said, trying to coax a child.
Upon seeing Lu Shi approach, the Holy Pegasus's expression completely changed. A golden light surged from its body, shooting straight into the sky, accompanied by a piercing neigh.
Then, it said viciously to Lu Shi, "Human, die. The Holy Beast will surely kill you."
Lu Shi then noticed that the Netherworld Serpent high up had been attracted by the cry of the Sacred Pegasus, and had turned its head to observe this direction.
"You green tea b*tch, you're so tough!" Lu Shi lowered her hand, and the silver light disappeared. "Since you're unwilling to be my mount, then you can be my... magical beast soul fuel!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the lightning spear struck down, pinning the sacred celestial horse to the ground through its belly, causing the horse to let out a mournful cry.
At the same time, the red light in Lu Shi's hand shone brightly.
Burning
The attack struck, and the continuously burning flames completely reduced the sacred Pegasus to a torch.
[Slayed a Tier 6 magical beast, soul weight 2367G, automatically absorbed]
Ignoring the panel notifications, Lu Shifeng flashed and called out to the six students who were still watching the show on the other side:
"Run! Run to the Magic Association!"
After saying that, he rushed out first.
In the sky, more than a dozen black snake phantoms were already rushing towards her...
