"What else?"
Shi Xiaobai repeated the three words once again.
"Very good, very good, very good."
The embarrassment naturally turned into anger as the Arch-Cardinal laughed angrily thrice. With a wave of his hand, a door of darkness appeared in front of him. Twenty skeleton soldiers walked out of the door and charged at Shi Xiaobai with murderous intent. The skeleton soldiers' speed was still extremely fast. They did not have the stiffness that white bones should have.
Shi Xiaobai was naturally not afraid. He brandished the saber in his hand and just as he was about to charge forward again, he suddenly noticed something strange.
These twenty skeleton soldiers seemed to be different from the previous ten!
Not only were they faster, their bodies were also larger. More importantly, the twenty skeleton soldiers had fewer "red lines" on their bodies!
Shi Xiaobai could clearly see the faintly moving red lines on every skeleton soldier's body. He had attempted to slash at the red lines from the beginning, but it was like he was slashing at tofu. A gentle slash was enough to shatter the skeleton soldiers into pieces.
Shi Xiaobai immediately understood that the constantly moving red lines were the skeleton soldiers' weak points. Just like the holes on the virus black cocoon or the Barrier of Darkness that flickered erratically, he could destroy them in one strike by grabbing their weak points.
Shi Xiaobai was able to accurately capture the trajectory of the red lines. Furthermore, he was able to slash at the red lines at an extremely fast speed. His instinctive actions were as smooth as flowing water, as though he had practiced it thousands of times. He could easily shatter the skeleton soldier.
But now, compared to before, the skeleton soldiers' red lines were not only reduced in number, they were also thinner and shorter. The speed at which they moved was also faster.
This meant that the skeleton soldiers' weak points were decreasing!
It should be said that they had become stronger!
Shi Xiaobai was slightly alarmed, but he quickly threw it to the back of his mind. His body only paused for a moment before he charged at the twenty skeleton soldiers!
As long as there were red lines, he could easily destroy them!
Shi Xiaobai charged into the encirclement of the twenty skeleton soldiers. Immediately, the skeleton soldiers' eye sockets suffused a strange red light. They raised their sabers and slashed at him, producing a sharp sonic boom.
Too slow! Too slow! Too slow!
In Shi Xiaobai's eyes, the skeleton soldier's attacks were too slow and its actions were too simple. It was completely incomparable to Thomas's "Wraith Bullets" or Xiao Xiao's "Crimson Netherworld"!
With Shi Xiaobai's intuition for danger and his sudden reaction, he easily dodged the flurry of slashes from the skeleton soldier. There were no fake moves, no sudden changes in speed, nor were there any fancy moves. Amidst the flashes and shadows, he was like a leisurely dancer, calm and elegant.
"Clang! Clang! Clang! … "
The sounds of collisions were incessant as Shi Xiaobai slashed out with every step he took. Every slash was so fast that it was a blur, and after every slash, several skeletons would be reduced to a pile of shattered bones.
After a few breaths, how could there still be a single skeleton soldier standing?
.....
Phew.
Xiao Xiao, who was far away, couldn't leave his line of sight. At this moment, she finally let out a long sigh, and her eyes were filled with splendor.
She had seen mighty figures that were several times stronger than Shi Xiaobai. She had also seen mighty figures that could instantly use a powerful offensive skill to blast all the skeleton soldiers to smithereens. Even she herself could easily destroy these skeleton soldiers.
However, this was the first time she was witnessing such a pleasing battle. Despite him using Crab Steps, which was nicknamed "comical steps", it was like a cool dance move that made one's heart race.
Shi Xiaobai's Crab Steps made her involuntarily recall a person — Yaris, who she had previously seen in videos, who was known as the "Divine Crab". He was one of the top heroes in the United States, and even the entire world.
Everyone said that "after Yaris, there is no Crab Steps". Xiao Xiao had previously expressed similar sentiments, but at this moment, she felt that although the little pervert's Crab Steps was extremely inferior to Yaris's in strength, he seemed to have grasped the essence within. His Crab Steps and Yaris's had a similar soul!
And what amazed Xiao Xiao even more was Shi Xiaobai's saber techniques. Although the Pig Slaughtering Saber Technique, which the Arch-Cardinal called "Saber of Time", was simple and unadorned, it gave people a feeling of great ingenuity.
Every strike he made on the skeleton soldiers was extremely ordinary. It did not contain rich Psionic Power, nor did it emit saber beams. He did not even use much strength, but such a simple strike was able to shatter the skeleton soldiers to smithereens.
This saber technique was so unimaginable, so admirable!
Xiao Xiao had never seen such a saber technique before. Not only had she never seen it, she had never even heard of it!
As Xiao Xiao sighed, she saw the Arch-Cardinal sneer angrily once again. With a wave of his hand, a door of darkness appeared out of thin air. This time, forty skeleton soldiers walked out. Furthermore, these skeleton soldiers were all wearing armor!
The number of skeleton soldiers increased with every wave. Furthermore, their individual strength was also increasing!
Xiao Xiao took a deep breath and realized that she had to join the battle. Who knew when the wave after wave of skeleton soldiers would end?
Xiao Xiao raised her crystal bow and slowly pulled back the bowstring. Beams of white light suddenly condensed on the bowstring, instantly forming an arrow made of white Psionic Power.
Although the virtual system was paralyzed, preventing her from summoning the crystal arrow, as an archer, Xiao Xiao had naturally grasped the most basic technique — "Psionic Arrow Transmutation". This was a backup technique an archer could use in an emergency situation where they no longer had a bow and arrow.
Although "Psionic Arrow Transmutation" greatly drained the user's Psionic Power and stamina, Xiao Xiao could not care less at this moment in time. She could not let Shi Xiaobai fight so many skeleton soldiers alone.
Xiao Xiao aimed slightly before shooting an arrow. She did not use "Crimson Netherworld", but instead used an archery technique that was relatively weaker but drained a lot of energy. Thankfully, this arrow barely managed to kill a skeleton soldier. Just as she was about to shoot a second arrow, Shi Xiaobai had already slain more than ten of them.
Xiao Xiao gave a helpless smile. This pervert was truly courageous and ferocious. It seemed like her actions were somewhat redundant?
However, after killing forty of them, another eighty might appear. How long could this pervert last?
Upon thinking of this, Xiao Xiao suddenly had a flash of inspiration as an idea surfaced in her mind.
"Don't kill them all, leave one behind!"
Xiao Xiao hurriedly shouted.
Just as Shi Xiaobai raised his hand and slashed down, he shattered another skeleton soldier. When he heard Xiao Xiao's words, he could not help but stop. Turning his head, he saw a skeleton soldier standing there trembling amidst the messy pile of shattered bones.
"The Arch-Cardinal's Skeleton Summoning Technique has the ability to grow. Furthermore, he will only summon another batch after all the skeleton soldiers are killed. I suspect that the death of all the skeleton soldiers is a necessary condition for the Skeleton Summoning Technique to grow! Hmph, by leaving one behind, he will not be able to use his summoning technique! "
Xiao Xiao's tone sounded agitated and a little excited. She even had the thought of taking credit without realizing it.
After some thought, Shi Xiaobai felt that what Xiao Xiao said made sense. Although these skeleton soldiers were temporarily not a threat to him, if they were to multiply every time, he would eventually be defeated by using a sea of soldiers strategy.
Xiao Xiao's discovery was no doubt a cardiotonic!
Shi Xiaobai gave Xiao Xiao a big thumbs up. He was prepared to have a good chat with the remaining skeleton soldier about life, about ideals, and about what hairstyle was the best.
At this moment, a door of darkness appeared once again. Eighty red skeleton soldiers walked out of the door with a murderous aura.
.....
Xiao Xiao's tiny face immediately blushed.
