Xia Ruofei gritted his teeth and pushed the speed of the Qu Shuang Flying Sword to the maximum. However, after ten minutes, the high-level star beast was still catching up. It was now only two to three meters away from Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei had also consumed a lot of energy. Fortunately, he had obtained the Elemental Storage Bead previously and had stored enough energy. Otherwise, he would have long been exhausted.
Even so, Xia Ruofei still felt a great sense of danger.
That high-level star beast should have pushed its speed to the maximum. Otherwise, at such a close distance, it would be able to attack Xia Ruofei directly if it increased its speed by another level.
Fortunately, the star beast did not have any long-range attacks. Otherwise, Xia Ruofei would not be able to survive even if he had nine lives.
Of course, if the high-level star beast could really launch a long-range attack, he would not care about anything else. He would hide in the Ring-Tu space first. He was still quite confident in the Spiritual Map Scroll. He felt that even if the high-level star beast saw him hiding in the Spiritual Map Scroll, the star beast would most likely not be able to destroy the scroll.
After a difficult escape and detour, Xia Ruofei finally set up the trap and kill array.
In this situation, he naturally could not adjust the array.
Fortunately, he had already set up the same array several times after hunting the mid-level star beast today. In addition, the array itself was designed by him, so it could be said that he was very familiar with it. Even in such a high-speed state, the probability of making a mistake was very small.
After setting up the array, Xia Ruofei did not have time to think about anything else. He roughly judged the direction and plunged into the preset range of the array.
The high-level star beast naturally did not hesitate and chased after Xia Ruofei.
In fact, the high-level star beast was already enraged. A Golden Core Stage human cultivator could actually run so fast. In front of a star beast that was known for its speed, he had not been caught after fleeing for ten minutes. This was simply a disgrace to the star beast race.
Especially when it was a noble high-level star beast.
Moreover, this high-level star beast did not know what the things that Xia Ruofei occasionally threw out in the process of escaping were for. It thought that he was throwing things randomly in a panic.
Xia Ruofei and the high-level star beast, one chasing and one escaping, entered the range of the array in the blink of an eye.
Xia Ruofei had already prepared the seal. Once he entered the range of the array, he directly activated the trap and kill array.
At this time, the high-level star beast just happened to catch up. the timing was just right.
After Xia Ruofei activated the array, he immediately ran in the direction that he had calculated long ago.
And after the high-level star beast fell into the array, it suddenly, it saw a vast expanse of white in front of its eyes..
This sudden change infuriated the high-grade Astral Beast even more.
Originally, it thought that dealing with a small Golden Core Stage cultivator could be said to be easy. It did not expect that this human cultivator could actually fly on his sword in the Training Tower. As a result, the speed advantage that it was most proud of was not fully utilized. Then, it inexplicably fell into the array and completely lost the chase.
The high-level star beast roared and slammed its huge claws forward. Suddenly, there was a burst of dust and a big pit was smashed in the ground.
After Xia Ruofei activated the array, he immediately distanced himself from the high-level star beast. At the same time, he also paid close attention to the star beast's every move.
Now that the high-level star beast was in the array, he could easily grasp its whereabouts.
Seeing the high-level star beast's angry attack directly creating a big pit in the ground, Xia Ruofei could not help but frown slightly.
The destructive power of a high-level star beast's attack was indeed extraordinary. The attack power of a mid-level star beast was simply not on the same level.
Although the star beasts were attacking randomly in the array formation, if they hit the key points of the array formation, it would still cause damage to the array formation.
The first few times the array formation trapped the mid-grade star beasts, their attack power was relatively weak. Moreover, the array formation had a major characteristic, and that was that it could distribute the attack power evenly among the various parts of the array formation. Therefore, the attacks of the mid-grade star beasts didn't seem to cause any damage.
However, the high-level star beast was different. Every attack of its was very destructive. The reason why the array could disperse the attack was also achieved by relying on the characteristics of the array pattern. In such a short period of time, the array pattern of the array pattern could not disperse the high-intensity attack in time. A part of the energy must be directly used on the attack point.
In this way, it was easy to cause damage to the array.
Xia Ruofei came to the center of the array as quickly as possible. It was easier for him to control the array here.
In just a few dozen seconds, the high-level star beast's attack had already landed on the key points of the array three times. Moreover, each attack caused some damage to the array. Although it could still hold on for a short period of time, the high-level star beast was likely to break free after a little longer.
When the array was damaged, Xia Ruofei would have no other trump cards. He could only hide in the Ring-Tu space.
This was what Xia Ruofei did not want to see.
He took a short breath and immediately formed hand seals. He activated the array and started to attack the high-level star beast.
Facing such a terrifying opponent, Xia Ruofei did not dare to hold back at all. He did not care about the array's consumption at all. He directly attacked with the most powerful attack. If he did not attack fiercely, the array would be destroyed directly. At that time, it would be meaningless to keep so many spirit stones.
The high-level star beast's attacks caused the stone chips on the ground to fly everywhere. However, the array only shook slightly. It was not damaged for the time being. Therefore, the star beast's field of vision was still white. The visibility was very low, and it was surrounded by thick white fog.
This made the star beast even more anxious. It attacked even more fiercely.
Of course, this high-level star beast thought that it was destroying all the way. In fact, it was already affected by the array. It had been circling around in a very small area.
This characteristic of the array was very effective in trapping the enemy. However, in this case, there were also some negative effects. The high-level star beast had been circling around in this area. Therefore, its attacks basically fell on the few nodes of the array in this area.
In this way, the damage to these nodes would continue to stack. If this damage was stacked to a certain extent, it would inevitably have a great impact on the array.
This was also an important reason why Xia Ruofei was so anxious to attack.
After the offensive power of the formation was activated, streaks of black light appeared in the white fog. These streaks of light were denser than ever before, almost covering the sky and the earth. There was no way to find any gaps at all.
The high-level star beast also immediately realized the danger. It roared and waved its claws quickly. Its speed was so fast that even Xia Ruofei was a little speechless. He could barely see the high-level star beast's claws. He could only see an impenetrable afterimage.
At the same time, the high-level star beast also shrank its head and body together, completely hiding in the defensive line formed by its claws.
Crackling sounds could be heard continuously.
Those streaks of black light quickly arrived in front of the high-level star beast. However, they were all swatted away by its claws. The streaks of light were all deflected. Unexpectedly, not a single one landed on its body.
Xia Ruofei could not help but frown. He kept forming seals and activating the array to continue attacking.
This kind of continuous and powerful attack naturally consumed a lot of energy.
The hill-like pile of spirit stones was slowly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Xia Ruofei maintained the array while throwing out a pile of spirit crystals.
These were energy crystals purer than spirit stones.
At present, Xia Ruofei's energy reserves were very sufficient. Even if the array continued to maintain the maximum attack, it could still consume a lot of energy.
However, the problem was that the speed of the streaks of black light was not fast enough compared to the high-level star beast's reaction speed.
Therefore, the high-level star beast could block all the streaks of light. Occasionally, one or two streaks of light would pass through. He could use his agile body technique to easily dodge them.
In other words, the continuous high consumption of energy was actually a waste of energy.
Xia Ruofei frowned slightly. After a moment, he gritted his teeth and continued to activate the array. His figure flashed and followed a specific route toward the high-level star beast.
Since the streaks of black light could not be used for the time being, Xia Ruofei could only add fuel to the fire.
If he was outside the array, he would definitely not be so bold. The high-level star beast had the strength of the Nascent Soul Stage. It was much stronger than Chen Nanfeng, the number one cultivator in the cultivation world that Xia Ruofei had encountered. If he fought it head-on, Xia Ruofei had no chance of winning.
However, with the help of the array, Xia Ruofei also had confidence.
He could clearly observe the high-level star beast's every move, but the high-level star beast seemed to be blind and deaf. It could not see the surrounding situation at all.
Xia Ruofei felt that he had no problem hiding in the dark and playing tricks.
A few minutes later, Xia Ruofei had already arrived in the vicinity of the high-level star beast, but the high-level star beast was still unaware.
Most of its attention was used to resist the streaks of black light.
Xia Ruofei's mind moved slightly. With a sword art in his hand, the Curved Frost Flying Sword silently stabbed at the high-level star beast.
The Curved Frost Flying Sword stabbed at the high-level star beast's back, aiming at the position below the star beast's ribs.
The high-level star beast was waving its front claws to resist the streaks of black light, so its ribs were wide open.
When it approached the high-level star beast, the Curved Frost Flying Sword suddenly accelerated.
The whistling sound reached the star beast's ears. Only then did it discover the Curved Frost Flying Sword that had just appeared from the fog.
The high-level star beast was shocked and angry. It roared and stomped its hind hooves, barely avoiding its vital points. The Curved Frost Flying Sword stabbed at the hard scales on its back.
With a clink, a few sparks splashed. The high-level star beast was actually unscathed. The Curved Frost Flying Sword could not even leave a mark on the star beast's body.
However, because the high-level star beast hurriedly dodged the Curved Frost Flying Sword, it inevitably caused a gap in its defense.
A streaks of black light pierced through its claws and landed on its front leg.
When Xia Ruofei used the Confinement Killing Array to kill mid-level star beasts previously, as long as this streaks of black light landed on the star beast's body, it would basically cause a penetrating wound.
However, after the target of the attack this time was a high-level star beast, the attack's effect was barely satisfactory.
The streaks of black light had only pierced less than an inch into the star beast's body before its energy was depleted and it directly disappeared.
However, no matter what, it still left a small wound on the star beast's body. Scarlet blood flowed out from the wound.
The high-level star beast roared violently. It was almost completely out of control.
A human Aurous Core Stage cultivator had actually injured it. What did this mean? It was like a person being bitten by an ant and actually losing a piece of flesh. It was simply unimaginable.
The high-level star beast, which had entered a berserk state, exuded a terrifying aura.
It stomped its hind legs and charged towards the streaks of black light. Then, it curled up its body and protected its vitals. It used its hardest back scales to withstand the remaining streaks of light. Meanwhile, it launched a fierce attack in front of it without caring about anything else.
Banging sounds were incessant.
There were sounds of the streaks of black light hitting the high-level star beast, but there were even more sounds of the high-level star beast wantonly destroying the formation.
In just a few seconds, the high-level star beast was hit three times by the streaks of light. It also unleashed its greatest destructive power, causing rocks to fly everywhere and the formation to be on the verge of collapse.
This was because in this short period of time, one of the formation nodes had been continuously attacked and was severely damaged.
Xia Ruofei's expression was also a little ugly. He gritted his teeth and activated the formation, continuously sending out his strongest attacks. At the same time, he continued to control the Curved Frost Flying Sword to attack the high-level star beast.
At this point, it was just a matter of who could hold on.
If the formation collapsed first, even if the high-level star beast was heavily injured, Xia Ruofei would immediately escape. He definitely wouldn't have the slightest bit of hope.
And if the high-level star beast couldn't hold on first, it would mean that it would lose its life.
At this moment, the high-level star beast's first wound that was hit by the streaks of black light started to emit a small flame.
Seeing this, Xia Ruofei's face revealed a trace of joy.
It seemed that the streaks of black light's most powerful attack was still effective against high-level star beasts.
It was just that he didn't know how much damage these flames could cause to the high-level star beast.
When the high-level star beast saw the flames on its front leg, it couldn't help but be shocked. At the same time, it let out a mournful roar.
Xia Ruofei's eyes lit up. It seemed that even high-level star beasts still had an innate fear of flames. Furthermore, flames seemed to be much more harmful to them than pure physical attacks.
Immediately after, the high-level star beast's back also started to emit flames.
It cried out in pain, and the speed at which it waved its claws also involuntarily slowed down.
The attacks weakened, and the pressure on the formation also lessened by a lot.
However, the formation node that had been attacked so many times was still completely destroyed under such attacks.
A loophole appeared in the formation, and the white fog instantly dissipated by a lot.
What gave Xia Ruofei the most headache was that the damage of the formation node meant that its ability to trap the enemy was greatly reduced.
Sure enough, the high-grade star beast was in so much pain that it kept jumping forward while screaming. The effect of the array formation was greatly weakened. It actually entered the depths of the array formation in an instant and approached the core of the array formation. Moreover, its violent attacks were still not reduced.
The closer it was to the core of the formation, the more important formation nodes there were.
Xia Ruofei saw that the high-level star beast that was on fire didn't show any signs of dying. Instead, it started to attack the more important formation nodes. He couldn't help but have a headache …
