Facing a being stronger than themselves, it was obviously not a wise move to trap it. Because the difference in vitality made it difficult for them to make up for it no matter how hard they tried, and they might even come up empty-handed. But Si Ta felt a little sorry to see his elephant beast injured. It was only after he beat it that it agreed to sign the spiritual contract, and the feelings were strong.
"quick!"
When Xia Xiao shouted, Si Ta rushed forward and punched Zong Tian Zhi Yan's side. The latter dodged, and the flames all over his body burned the mountains and forests for several miles.
"rise!"
The rocks fell down and piled up, blocking the flames for only a moment. When they burned Si Ta's back, this carefree man endured the pain and roared to help the stone elephant stand up.
One man, one poem stood in the sea of fire. As they looked at each other, Si Ta said something.
"Don't embarrass yourself in front of your friends!"
The elephant's trunk vibrated with air, and its roar resounded through heaven and earth. When it raised its strong forelimbs, Si Ta beside it raised his arms high with his muscles bulging.
"Rock and earth rampart—"
The thick arms and elephant legs fell to the ground together, and the ground shook immediately, and the earth power gathered and churned, causing Zong Tian Zhi Yan to stagger. The latter, who had just dodged two blades, shook his head, grabbed the ground with his claws, aimed at the elephant beast and Si Ta, and prepared to attack.
Peng——
The burning flames burst out instantly, illuminating the entire sky. The eyes of the tiger of Zong Tian Zhi Yan were hidden in the fire, making it difficult to detect its emotions, but its roar was loud and clear, and its murderous intent was obvious.
"Trap it!"
When Xia Xiao said it again, Su Huan wanted to ask why, but Xia Xiao yelled at her:
"Accumulate the vitality of the gold element."
"Are you trying to make use of the five elements?"
Xia Xiao nodded, and there was no time to explain, but Su Huan hit the point. During the years when Xia Xiao could not practice, he had a flexible and thorough grasp of the Five Elements Theory, which laid an excellent foundation for the current battle!
If you ask Su Huan what is the most attractive thing about Xia Xiao, she will definitely say Xia Xiao's eyes. Those piercing eyes often have a calm and cold light, which is beyond many of his peers, and even many elders can't compare with them. It perfectly interprets the phrase "Taishan collapses in front of you but remains calm", and he has mastered every detail very well.
Seeing this, Su Huan formed hand seals with his hands and the vitality in his body began to accumulate.
"Si Ta, it's up to you!"
Xia Xiao knew that he was of little use now, so he jumped onto the crab's back along the crab's legs and watched Si Ta perform his moves.
The charging fire tiger was only a few dozen meters away from Si Ta, but the ground sank with a loud bang, and even though Zong Tian Zhi Yan reacted quickly, he still fell down. The 50-meter-deep pit was Si Ta's limit at this time. His eyes were bloodshot and his hands were in seals.
"rise--"
Around the pit, rocks gathered into a huge triangle, like four sides of a coffin lid, about to close together. But because the control range was too large, they closed together very slowly.
boom!
There was a loud bang of flame explosion, and then the pit was filled with flames, and the flames shot up. This kind of big pit can easily trap people, and can also trap wild beasts of the same level, but the flame of the sky is the fifth level. Besides, the stone cover has not been closed yet!
The tiger roared fiercely. It was a tiger king. Didn't it expect to be bullied by a junior today? If it was injured, how could it face the Snow Eagle?
Immediately, the flames of the sky soared up and rushed into the pit.
An elephant's cry shook the air, and the elephant beast that was charging towards Sky-High Flame used its sharp tusks to push against his body, and fell with him.
Over the years, Zong Tian Zhi Yan has looked down upon those who have signed spiritual contracts with humans but still retain their sanity. Is this submission to humans? It's really unworthy of the name of beast!
Furious, Tian Zhi Yan raised his right claw, even if it meant falling into a pit, he would let this thick-skinned stone elephant taste the consequences of betraying the beast tribe! This would be an injury that would affect its life, and when it felt a dull pain, it would think that this was a punishment!
The ferocious tiger pupils and elephant eyes stared at each other, the fire in the pit and on Zong Tian Zhi Yan's body dyed the latter's pupils a fiery red.
The kingly aura in the tiger's pupils was enough to scare most wild beasts, and it was so domineering that it seemed that disobeying orders would mean death. The next moment, a sharp edge flashed before the elephant's eyes, and blood splattered immediately.
His right eye suddenly closed, and cold sweat broke out on Si Ta's face. The stone elephant's right eye was injured, and Si Ta was anxious. He raised his arms and bent his stiff fingers abruptly!
"combine!"
Bang--
The extremely thick rock plates slapped together without leaving any gaps. Amid the humming sound, earthy yellow energy emerged from the stone plates. The heavy plates began to tremble, and together with the energy in the pit, they trapped the flame of the sky. Then, Si Ta, who had not yet relaxed, quickly formed the spiritual contract hand seal, opened the contract space, and let the stone elephant return.
"Finish."
Si Ta knelt on one knee and supported himself on the ground with both hands to avoid falling down.
Boom——
The stone slab was shaking. This time, it was Si Ta's turn to call out Xia Xiao's name. He had used up a large part of his energy to trap the flames of the sky. Then what? Xia Xiao should have a plan, right?
"Su Huan, gather your energy behind the stone slab."
Su Huan did as she was told. She understood what Xia Xiao meant.
"Follow my instructions and push your vital energy inwards at the same time!"
The cracked stone slab first emitted an ochre-colored light, then a dark iron luster. They were tightly wrapped together, waiting for Xia Xiao's command.
In order to use the vital energy more accurately, Si Ta and Su Huan both prepared to form hand seals. When their palms clapped together, all the vital energy would be activated.
Three seconds passed, the cracks in the stone slabs became larger and larger, and veins on Si Ta's forehead bulged. If he didn't control that energy, it would be fine, but now that he was connected to it, he couldn't bear it. The flames under the stone slabs were colliding violently, releasing amazing power and high temperature heat every time.
"Xia Xiao, are you still not well?"
"Wait a moment!"
Xia Xiao roared loudly, his eyes fixed on the crack in the stone slab, waiting for fire to shoot out from it.
Click!
The stone slabs cracked like a spider web, and the cracks became more and more, and steam came out of them.
"I can't bear it anymore——"
Si Ta gritted his teeth, sweating all over. Su Huan also turned his head, a little anxious.
"How long do we have to wait?"
Su Huan knew the theory that Xia Xiao wanted to master. Among the five elements, fire produces earth, and earth produces gold. He wanted to trap the flame of Zong Tian first, so that it would release enough high temperature and flames to make Si Ta's earth element vitality burst out with an extraordinary force, and then feedback to his own gold element vitality.
I have to admit that this is a good method, which is equivalent to using the power of the Sky-Resisting Flame to hurt itself, but the Fire Element still restrains the Metal Element. And if we don't act now, it will be too late.
“Don’t be impatient!”
After Xia Xiao finished speaking, he started counting down.
"three!"
Si Ta couldn't hold on any longer and her whole body turned red.
"two!"
Su Huan really wanted to activate his vitality right now. If he waited any longer, Si Ta would be seriously injured. But he didn't want to fail at the last moment, after all, it was already this late.
"one!"
After Xia Xiao finished speaking, the flames had already broken through the rocks. But now, it's a good opportunity.
"Urge now!"
Si Ta opened his mouth wide, revealing a row of extremely hard teeth. He felt that the pain was enough to bite Zong Tian Zhi Yan to death, but he had no chance.
The palms slapped together violently, and the earth force and metal force in the stone slab suddenly combined, producing an extremely strong reaction.
Because the stone slab was broken, Si Ta could already control very little earth power. However, fire generates earth, and the earth power generated around the pit instantly connected with him, making the earth power he could drive even greater. They squeezed inward, and the metal power was amplified, almost generating countless blades in an instant.
In an instant, a mixture of rich earthy yellow and sharp metallic luster continued to condense, releasing an extremely strong air wave. The air wave spread out, blasting the ground apart, tearing apart trees, and even breaking off their roots.
When Si Ta's body was blown away, a huge crab claw fell in front of Su Huan. She hid behind it, listening to the whistling wind in her ears, like falling asleep listening to the wind on a rainy night, and her emotions stabilized in an instant. Reaching her hand behind her shoulder, Shu Shuang habitually touched the umbrella, as long as it was still there!
Shu Shuang grabbed the iron rod in his hand and pulled Xia Xiao. When the wind stopped, Xia Xiao hurried to the front of the crab shell to see the direction of the wind. Zong Tian Zhi Yan should have been driven into a frenzy by now. If not, they must retreat quickly.
The previous earth pit was filled with collapsed soil on all sides. On top of it was a large ball shaped like a gravel knife tip. The gaps in the ball seemed to be sealed with metal and were extremely hard.
"Since this is possible..."
Xia Xiao wanted to blast the fire tiger. Although the metal energy is not the most destructive, it is sharp enough and lethal enough to injure the fire tiger. As long as the latter goes berserk, its strength will increase, but its basic rationality will be lost. Si Ning and Si Qin, who have recovered their energy in the back, will have a chance to defeat it through the five elements. This is also the only way, but now it seems unlikely!
"Lead Si Ta back."
When Xia Xiao said this, Shu Shuang immediately walked back.
"Su Huan, we must take the lead in attacking!"
Xia Xiao didn't want to lose the opportunity to hurt Zong Tian Zhi Yan, but before the huge crab beast could move, a crack appeared on the ball that was more than ten meters wide.
“Crack!”
After a crisp sound, the crack gradually spread, like a river with countless tributaries.
The crab claws moved in front of it, and the sharp crab claws made a sharp sound of breaking wind and stabbed down fiercely.
With a thud, a big hole was poked in the ground, and the other crab claw was pressed against the head by the vigorous fire energy. Compared with black iron, the color of the flame was brighter, and although the tiger pupil in the flame was violent, it still had intelligence.
“It’s time to retreat!”
The fact that they didn't provoke it into a frenzy showed that their strength was far from enough. This time Su Huan agreed to retreat, but it was too late. Zong Tian Zhi Yan bit the crab claw, and scalding heat burst out of his mouth, trying to roast the crab beast's entire claw.
His right hand suddenly became hot, almost burning, which affected Su Huan's seal-forming and slowed down his speed a lot.
“Damn it!”
Seeing this, Xia Xiao rushed down along the crab's claws with a machete in hand.
