Countless strands of poisonous gas shot out from Grai's body. The instant they came into contact with the ground, they exploded, turning into endless yellow smoke that instantly surrounded Grai!
This was the plague of the Beast Loathing! It was a completely different concept from Gordon's Wood Elemental Poison Gas, even if you held your breath …
Everyone was stunned. It was said that the Loathe Beast's poison was something that even Heavenly Soul Stages had to retreat from. Although it was only the Loathe Beast bloodline, it was not something that Grai could defend against. Even its pollen …
Eh …
Soul Power burned on the surface of Grai's body, and the poisonous gas condensed and didn't dissipate. It covered the entire area, and even the ground started to emit sizzling sounds of corrosion. However, when this poisonous gas came into contact with Grai's Soul Power, it seemed to be separated.
Grai's Soul Power was able to resist poison?
Everyone suddenly thought back to the fight between Grai and Gaden. At that time, the poison fog had not been of any use, and had even allowed Grai to make a huge comeback. That's right! Grai might really possess a physique that could resist poison!
Countless Tianjing supporters breathed a sigh of relief, while their previously tense hearts finally returned to their chests. What a joke! He's even allergic to something as gentle and romantic as pollen! Yet, he's not the least bit afraid of this poisonous fog that everyone would turn pale at the mere mention of. What kind of freaking resistance is that …
Nevertheless, not a single change was present in Gui Wulie's eyes, showing neither shock nor hesitation. Although he wasn't able to obtain an instant and fatal effect, he knew that Grai had to share a portion of his Soul Power and mental energy to resist the poison gas. How could there be an absolute physique that could resist poison in this world? This was the Beast Loathing Virus!
A sliver of a sneer surfaced at the corner of Gui Wulie's mouth. Drip …
A drop of saliva dripped from his mouth onto the ground, making a sizzling sound!
It was just a single drop, but the hard stone floor emitted green smoke. In an instant, a finger-sized hole had been corroded, and at the same time, the surroundings of the hole immediately turned grey!
The big screen quickly showed this detail, and everyone couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
This was too vicious …
Without waiting for the audience to regain their senses, Gui Wulie's glowing yellow demonic eyes had already flashed, before he furiously shot into the air.
Zeng!
The yellow hurricane arrived in the blink of an eye, its speed more than doubled!
Grai's speed was barely enough to keep up, and he managed to block the incoming attack with his dagger in time.
Bang!
The sound was a little muffled, not as crisp as the previous collision. What followed was a series of muffled sounds!
Faster and stronger!
Bang bang bang bang bang!
Gui Wulie was already satisfied!
Every time they collided, Grai's runic dagger would glow with a brilliant blue light. The infusion of Soul Power into the dagger triggered the runic array's effect, increasing the dagger's endurance.
But he still couldn't hold on!
The corrosive effect of the Loathe Beast bloodline Soul Power present on Gui Wulie's steel claws wasn't the slightest bit weaker than the saliva that had dripped onto the ground. The array on the runic dagger was quickly corroded away, while the cold glint sparkling on the edge of the dagger was rapidly covered by a thick layer of rust.
Crack!
Like the sound of twigs breaking, the two daggers broke at the same time!
Cries of surprise rang out from the stands. Such a powerful corrosion was different from the poisonous gas. It seemed to corrode everything it touched! If he had a dagger, he could use it to block, but if he didn't even have a dagger, would he dare to block it with his bare hands?
A yellow glow sparkled within Gui Wulie's eyes as he rushed forward!
Grai's feet shifted, appearing just like a willow leaf in the wind. His swaying figure appeared to have millions of layers, as he retreated without any disorder!
However, retreating wasn't as fast as running forward. What's more, Grai's "unafraid of the poisonous gas" was built upon a certain level of Soul Power consumption, and wasn't an innate resistance to poison. Clearly, splitting one's attention into two was a huge taboo in combat. His feet had only slowed by half a beat, before the steel claws had already arrived before him.
"I'll take your life!" Gui Wulie's eyes were already brimming with the conviction of victory!
Bang!
The steel claws pulsating with yellow Soul Power suddenly smashed into a hard object, causing it to be obstructed.
It was yet another runic handprint, though this time, it was a runic shield!
Crack crack crack crack!
The runic shield blocked the steel claws, but a shattering sound immediately rang out.
Gui Wulie's charge was only slightly affected, before the steel claws had already pierced through the runic shield!
He was actually unable to block it!
The hearts of countless Tianjing fans had already leapt to their throats!
Grai's expression didn't change. Bang!
2nd layer runic shield!
The speed at which Grai had formed the handprint was truly too fast, appearing right before him in the nick of time.
Bang!
A massive impact rang out. Taking advantage of the slight delay caused by the 2nd layer runic shield, Grai was sent retreating explosively!
However, it was closely followed by a bone maggot!
A step back, followed by step after step!
Under such pressure, losing the initiative was tantamount to a slow death!
The Bloodthirsty Steel Claws struck out in a frenzy, causing Grai to lose count of how many runic shields he had condensed in an instant. However, they were rapidly shattering one after another. Furthermore, the might of the runic shields was clearly growing weaker and weaker.
During the first few steps, he was still able to barely control the situation. However, with each successive step he took, the disadvantage started to stack up, forming an unstoppable momentum!
There wasn't the slightest bit of hesitation present in Gui Wulie's eyes. To a top class assassin, letting go of such an opportunity would basically be a fatal mistake!
Deng deng deng!
A sliver of stagger appeared on Grai's feet. A flash of brilliance erupted from Gui Wulie's eyes, while his Bloodthirsty Steel Claws transformed into a yellow ray of light as he struck out with all his might. As long as he managed to scratch a single piece of skin, Grai would be finished!
Grai's hands parted. Although he staggered, there wasn't a hint of panic in his hands. 2 hands, 2 different movements.
A slightly smaller runic shield appeared in his right hand, while his left hand made a circle in the air. Layers of afterimages formed a perfect arc!
Hundred-Fold Palms!
Chasing after Grai, they faced each other in a cold and emotionless manner. In an instant, an instant of communication occurred between the 4 pairs of eyes.
A sliver of vigilance flashed across Gui Wulie's eyes.
The small runic shield in Grai's right hand was completely a symbolic defence. It was utterly impossible for it to block a strike from his Bloodthirsty Steel Claws. All he needed to do was to stab it, and Grai would definitely die! However, he would also have to endure the damage from his opponent's Hundred-Fold Palms!
This was the Hundred-Fold Palms that had broken Zhao Tianlong's indestructible body. It could be said to be the move that Grai was famous for. There was naturally no need to talk about its might. Although he might be able to evade the most fatal strike in an instant, and not die from it, he would still have to take a huge risk in doing so. His opponent's gaze was frighteningly calm, and didn't appear to be a move made by a cornered dog. Perhaps, he still had a backup plan, and he might not be able to evade the attack.
It's not worth it!
His opponent had already lost his weapon. Therefore, he could create an opportunity like this at any time. Taking advantage of the favorable timing, geographical location, and human conditions, defeating Grai was just a matter of time. There was no need for him to risk his life.
In just a split second, Gui Wulie had already weighed the pros and cons in his heart. The ancient assassin faction would always retreat a thousand miles away if a single strike missed. Putting one's life on the line was the most inferior method, and was the most unsuitable for assassins!
The yellow stab turned into a slash, easily slicing apart Grai's runic shield. Taking advantage of the collision between his claw and shield, Gui Wulie did a backflip and retreated backwards.
Grai thudded as he retreated a few steps back, while the 2 of them stared at each other with a distance of a dozen metres between them.
A sliver of charred smell came from Grai's arm!
