"What kind of strange magical artifact is this?" As Wen Tianming spoke, he waved his hand, and all the hyenas surrounding him pounced on Lu Shi.
"Little Scissors, let's have a good fight today."
Lu Shi let out a long howl, and the giant scissors slid open, rushing towards Wen Tianming.
The hyenas that surrounded them pounced on them all at once, but they were no match for them. If they touched the scissors, they would be injured if they were grazed, and die if they were touched.
In a mere dozen meters, Lu Shi, riding the wind tracks, vanished in an instant, killing dozens of hyenas that blocked his path.
The terrifying aura even deterred the dim-witted hyenas from advancing further. After all, in their short canine lives, they had never seen a mage wielding a weapon to slay magical beasts before.
Seeing Lu Shi charging towards him, Wen Tianming's left and right hands emitted black and white light, forming a Tai Chi diagram in front of him.
Lu Shi exerted force with both hands, opened the scissors, and cut towards the Tai Chi diagram. The sharp edges of the scissors made a sizzling sound as they cut across the Tai Chi diagram.
"Are you even a magician? Why are you so crudely using magical artifacts for close combat?" Wen Tianming took two steps back, the Tai Chi diagram flashing light intermittently. He raised his head and questioned Lu Shi with difficulty.
Using scissors for the first time without going crazy, Lu Shi was initially a little nervous, but the snip-snip sound of the scissors opening and closing was so relaxing. Having calmed down, her current thought was to cut off Wen Tianming's hair and suck his soul.
[Fire Magic Attachment]
The silver scissors were coated with a fiery red layer, making them even more dazzling.
The wind tracks beneath her feet flickered, and Lu Shi pulled back the scissors again, chasing after Wen Tianming and cutting him.
Ding ding...
Splash...
The powerful stirring force of the scissors directly shredded the Tai Chi diagram.
The black and white pattern turned into fragmented shadows, scattered on the ground, and eventually vanished without a trace.
“Wait, we can talk…” Wen Tianming took another step back, raised his hands, and gestured for a pause.
Lu Shi didn't even have the energy to deal with him. The wind gear flickered, and she continued cutting Wen Tianming's head.
Upon seeing Lu Shi's ferocious appearance, Wen Tianming's feet also flashed with a blue light, his wind trails flickered, and he fled backward.
"You really think I don't know magic?" Lu Shi handed the scissors to her left hand.
With his right hand pointing forward, a lightning spear fell from the sky, and Wen Tianming quickly dodged it. Then another lightning spear struck down, and Wen Tianming dodged again.
It was only at this moment that they realized Wen Tianming was equally skilled in using wind magic.
"Tch, slippery rat."
Lu Shi chuckled and plunged the scissors into the ground.
The right hand continued to force him to move, while the left hand flashed with cyan light.
Wen Tianming once again dodged a lightning spear.
Suddenly he noticed a blue light array appearing on the ground where he had just landed.
【Wind Prison】
Then, Wen Tianming's body was entangled by the strong wind and he was unable to move.
"Hehe, you can't escape now." Picking up the scissors from the ground, Lu Shi raised them with both hands and aimed the sharp ends directly at Wen Tianming's chest, preparing to cut a hole in his chest before severing his head. She wanted to be cruel.
bite.
The scissors were blocked by the Tai Chi symbol once again.
Although Wen Tianming was completely unable to move, the Tai Chi diagram still appeared out of thin air in front of him.
But this also hurt him badly, and he coughed up several mouthfuls of blood.
"I refuse to believe it!" Lu Shi said angrily.
The lightning spears rained down like madmen.
The cracks on the Tai Chi symbol are getting bigger and bigger.
With a deafening boom, it vanished into nothingness once again.
As the Tai Chi diagram shattered, Wen Tianming coughed up another mouthful of blood. At the same time, a root-like object appeared on each of his left and right arms.
Both objects resemble an ancient, twisted tree covered with deep furrows and intricate magical runes.
The black tree roots emerging on the left give it a mysterious feel.
The tree root on the right is pure white, looking clean and pristine.
Both shimmered with a soft glow under the sunlight, like stars adorning the sky.
"It's a magical spiritual root! And a rare one at that, a shadow-type and a mind-type spiritual root. And the level isn't low either. Master, Master, quick, let's cut it up, two good things!" Little Scissors waved excitedly in Lu Shi's hand.
I don't understand. Although I don't know what a magical spiritual root is, it looks and sounds like something powerful, rare, and that can help you become stronger.
Wen Tianming waved his hands, and his magical spiritual root emitted a strong light, allowing his body to break free from the control of the wind prison.
He was preparing to step back.
But then everything stopped instantly.
Because Lu Shi had already placed the scissors against his neck.
"Wen Tianming, die!"
"Human, how dare you?" The voice of the Netherworld Serpent boomed in Lu Shi's ears.
Bang.
The Shadow Cheetah fell from the sky and lay on the ground, its size restored. Its eyes were glazed, and its entire body emanated a black aura.
However, the Netherworld Serpent doesn't look good right now either.
Its entire body was covered in claw marks, black liquid flowing from its wounds, and even one of its wings was broken off. Unable to remain floating in the air any longer, the snake's body fell to the ground, curled up, with only its head still held high.
“Teacher Lu, we can have a good time together…” Wen Tianming smiled gently, wanting to say something.
Sizzle.
A human head flew high into the air.
Wen Tianming's headless corpse fell backward, blood flowing from his neck, and his head rolled to the side.
[Slayed a high-ranking human mage; soul weight 210G, automatically absorbed]
The first time Lu Shi cut off a person's head while fully conscious, she didn't feel much emotional distress.
It seems that without the stimulation of changing the weight of one's soul, I'd be crazy enough by now.
Turning around, Lu Shi shook the blood off the scissors, looked at the Netherworld Serpent, and said calmly, "Now you know whether I dare or not!"
"Ah!" The Netherworld Serpent raised its head towards the sky.
Then, it lowered its head and stared intently at Lu Shi.
"Woman, you killed my sweetheart, you killed countless of my people, and now you've even killed my business partner. I'm going to drag you into an endless nightmare, and make you sink into eternal damnation."
As the Netherworld Serpent finished speaking, a gigantic black serpent phantom emerged from its body and lunged directly at Lu Shi.
He raised his hand and unleashed a lightning spear.
The lightning spear pierced through the black snake phantom and struck the ground directly, scorching the ground black.
"Master, it's a curse-type spell that ignores physical attacks. Don't waste your elemental magic!" Little Scissors cried out, swaying.
"Understood." He plunged the scissors back into the ground.
With his left hand, he shot a mental purification spell at the black snake.
The powerful dispelling force turned a small section of the ethereal scales on the black snake's body into nothingness.
The Netherworld Serpent, coiled in place, let out a furious roar.
"It seems that injuring this phantom also damages its main body. However, I prefer to attack the main body." Lu Shi observed the state of the demonic serpent opposite him and made calculations in his mind.
With his left hand, he continued to purify the black snake phantom, while with his right hand, he began to draw a star map of the wall of the mind.
The star map appears.
A white halo appeared around Lu Shi.
A blue light surged beneath my feet.
Unexpectedly, Lu Shi ignored the black snake phantom confronting her in the sky and directly raised her scissors to charge at the Netherworld Demon Serpent.
Upon seeing Lu Shi move, the black snake phantom descended from the sky, attempting to unleash its coiling attack. However, the black figure was blocked outside the halo by the barrier of the Mind Wall, and its body emitted a series of hissing sounds, like slices of roasted meat, with billowing black smoke rising.
"Ah!" The Netherworld Serpent let out a deafening cry of pain.
"What are you yelling about? I've cut off your snake head."
Lu Shi pulled open the large scissors, preparing to directly block the enormous head of the Netherworld Demon Serpent.
Faced with the menacing giant scissors, the Netherworld Serpent cried out in alarm, its enormous tail whipping towards Lu Shi from behind.
The scissors clamped the snake's tail.
Click.
The tail of the Netherworld Serpent was severed, black smoke rose from the broken end, and black liquid dripped continuously.
Lu Shi was also shaken back several steps by the enormous force, and her hands were a little numb.
The Netherworld Serpent let out a resentful scream.
"Humans, you forced me to this."
It curled its body up completely. Its head was raised to the sky, and it chanted loudly in an unintelligible language.
As the sound rang out, the black light continued to converge upon it.
"Is he planning to self-destruct?" Lu Shi asked, puzzled.
"No, this is a sacrificial magic array being chanted," Little Scissors explained promptly.
A huge black magic circle rose from beneath the Netherworld Serpent's body, completely enveloping it.
At the same time, an incredibly dazzling black beam of light rose from the direction of the teleportation channel, shooting straight into the sky.
The sight of it...makes one turn pale.
