Unknowingly, Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaolengjian were already quite far apart.
She dealt with thunder and lightning attacks alone. Even if she wanted to escape from the dark clouds above her head, she seemed to be firmly controlled by an invisible force. If this continued, she would doubt herself before confronting Qingyun. His physical strength may have been exhausted.
Ouyang Xiaolen didn't want to waste any more time. He simply rushed towards the center of the dark clouds, his intuition telling him that Qingyun should be hidden among them.
Xia Qiu caught Ouyang Xiaoleng's actions with the corner of her eyes. Instead of hesitating, she decided to follow him.
So, she called Xiaolibai to her side, stepped on its back, and controlled it to dodge the thunder and lightning that was striking her, and gradually approached Ouyang Xiaoleng.
She entered the dark clouds almost at the same time as him, reaching out to pull him behind her. Relying on Xiaolibai's sensing ability to avoid thunder and lightning in the clouds, coupled with the power generated by the intertwining of the two demonic cyclones, he shuttled between the endless dark clouds, looking for traces of the demon Qingyun.
The feeling of walking in the dark reminded them of what happened when Ouyang Yong led them to meditate. At that time, they and Qian Qi also entered a nearly completely dark world, with only the Demon King's Crown emitting light.
The experience at that time inspired Ouyang Xiaoleng. He calmed down and used the power of gods and demons to find the faint light from Qingyun's magic power. That trace of cyan hidden deep in the darkness was cold, domineering, like a sharp blade, towering over all things, and unlike any power he had ever come into contact with. As long as you follow the pain caused by being scratched by a sharp blade, you will definitely be able to find his whereabouts.
Suddenly he seemed to be sure of Qingyun's direction, so he said to Xia Qiu: "Over there!"
"Xiao Libai!" Xia Qiu controlled Xiao Libai to lead her and Ouyang Xiaoleng in the direction he pointed.
In the black clouds, the cyan light group formed by Qingyun's magic power slowly appeared. Inside the light group, he closed his eyes tightly with a very calm expression. Looking at it this way, he looked almost exactly like Ling Yu.
Feeling Ouyang Xiaoleng and Xia Qiu approaching, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at them, seeming a little surprised that they could find him so quickly. Those thunder and lightning were created by him in the light group in the center of the dark cloud. His original plan was to avoid a head-on confrontation with Ouyang Xiaoleng as much as possible.
While the World-Destroying System allowed him to regain great power, it left him mentally unstable, because according to Madam Lan's original plan, she wanted him to be completely controlled by this system. Although her intention was seen through by Qingyun at the critical moment, it actually caused some damage to his spirit.
"I thought you were stronger than before? I didn't expect you to be hiding here as soon as the battle started!" Ouyang Xiaoleng flew down from Xiaolibai's back and said to Qingyun.
"I just don't want to see you and your human contractor die hugging each other with my own eyes! After all, this is not the first time I have seen such a scene. It's really a little bit..." Qingyun deliberately touched Ouyang Xiaoleng's most vulnerable state. nerves.
"Shut up!" Ouyang Xiaoleng interrupted him.
He knew that Qingyun was referring to his parents. When the power of gods and demons was released, his emotions became more difficult to control. Regarding how his parents died, he absolutely didn't want to hear a word from Qingyun's mouth, and uncontrollable anger burned wantonly in his chest. He raised the Night God Ice in his hand and swung his sword towards the ball of light surrounding Qingyun.
The power of this sword was so great that it directly tore apart the cyan light group. When the light group disappeared, the surrounding dark clouds also quickly dispersed.
"The power of gods and demons is really powerful!" Qingyun smiled, but his smile looked a bit weird, "But compared to my current power, it's still a little behind!"
As soon as he finished speaking, green flames ignited all over his body. In the flames, his body quickly transformed into a huge green tiger beast.
Seeing the green tiger beast rushing directly towards the ground, Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng returned to Xiao Libai's back and started a chase battle with Qingyun in the form of the green tiger beast.
The Green Tiger Beast led them to an open space far away from the main battlefield and stopped there. Only by observing it up close can we know how big it is. Its size is even larger than that of Xiaolibai.
Little Libai watched it warily, and the mane on the back of its neck stood up. It made a low cry from deep in its throat, as if it was sending a warning to the other party.
The Green Tiger Beast arched its entire body, as if preparing for a fight. But before Xiaolibai could react, it bounced from the spot like an arrow from a string and pounced on Xiaolibai at an extremely fast speed.
Xiao Libai put away her previous momentum, turned her body, and ran wildly in the opposite direction to avoid the attack of the green tiger beast.
"Hey, how can I make it stop?! It may not be too courageous!" Ouyang Xiaoleng shouted from behind Xia Qiu, Xiaolibai ran away so fast that his voice was swallowed by the wind Went there most of the time.
Although this was the first time he had seen Qingyun in this form, he had no intention of backing down. Unexpectedly, he passively became a deserter before testing the opponent's strength in this form.
Xia Qiu tried to stroke the hair on Xiaolibai's neck and gently told it to stop. But it became completely uncontrollable and even gave up the ability to fly because it was running so fast that its four feet almost left the ground.
"If it doesn't work, let's jump down! Although there will be certain dangers!" Ouyang Xiaoleng really didn't want to continue to waste time, he would rather take risks.
But Xia Qiu had different ideas this time. She remembered the time when she and Xiao Zhou performed the training of walking through the fire ring in the realm of soul separation. At the beginning, Xiao Libai also made it difficult to continue the training because of fear, but in the end, with her encouragement, it still grew. He gained courage and mastered the method of crossing the waterfall barrier with her.
So at this moment, she was still willing to believe that her partner, Xiao Libai, who was supposed to be in the realm of soul separation, must have gone through a lot of things before coming to the demon world, just to help her defeat a powerful opponent again. She would never live up to this trust no matter what, so she wanted to return the same trust to it.
"Wait a little longer!" She shouted loudly to Ouyang Xiaoleng, while continuing to comfort the frightened Xiaolibai.
This is the first time Xiaolibai has fought one-on-one with a monster of similar size to herself, so it will inevitably take some time to adapt. When it completely lost its self-awareness due to fear, there was only a fog in its eyes. However, Xia Qiu's calls gradually made it break through the fog, and it found a way to face various difficulties with her in the state of soul separation. That courage.
It no longer runs blindly, but begins to continuously change speed and direction as it runs. Every time the green tiger beast felt that it was about to catch up with it, it fell further behind.
After repeating this for many times, the speed of the green tiger beast began to slow down. As a sacred beast of the divine domain, Xiaolibai has equally excellent physical strength and speed.
Seeing that the green tiger beast was falling further and further away from her, Xiao Libai turned hard, made a circle, and began to chase the green tiger beast in the opposite direction.
Green Tigermon was obviously not used to the current situation, but since he was now facing the enemy, he had no choice but to avoid being surrounded.
"Xia Qiu, catch it!"
The voice of Feather Crane Immortal came from the air. He brought Xia Qiu's bows and arrows and threw them downwards.
"Xiao Libai!" Xia Qiu ordered Xiao Libai.
Xiaolibai jumped up from the ground with a "woo", and gently bit the bow and arrow dropped by Yuhe Immortal, then turned her head and passed them to Xia Qiu's hand.
"Thank you!" Xia Qiu was not only expressing her gratitude to the Feather Crane Immortal in the sky, but also thanking her partner Xiaoli Bai.
These feather arrows had just been imbued with magical power by Ran Tianyou and had a certain effect on exorcizing demons. The moment he held them in his hands, Xia Qiu felt the purity and coldness they brought.
She drove Xiaoli Bai to within the effective shooting range, trying hard to recall every detail Ouyang Xueye had given her, from setting the arrow, shooting the bow, to releasing her fingers, and tried her best to calm her breathing. At the most appropriate moment, shoot the feather arrow with the power of nature at the green tiger beast.
After the feather arrow leaves the string, a faint pink-gold light shines in the air. The gold color comes from the magic power of Ran Tianyou, and the pink color is part of Xia Qiu's power placed on the feather arrow.
At that moment, Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng waited with bated breath. Until the feather arrow hit the green tiger beast's left hind leg without any deviation, it almost fell because of this. Although it finally found its balance again, its speed slowed down significantly.
"Beautiful!" Ouyang Xiaoleng sighed.
The green tiger beast finally stopped running and gasped for air on the spot. It was obvious that the arrow had caused a lot of pain to it.
Ouyang Xiaoleng flew forward and launched a fierce attack on the green tiger beast with his two swords. The green tiger beast used its sharp teeth and tiger claws to resist and fight back.
The two of them fought so fast that it was difficult for Xia Qiu to see their movements clearly. All he could hear was the sound of the wind when Ouyang Xiaoleng swung his sword, and the roar of the green tiger beast.
Ouyang Xiaoleng quickly realized that although the green tiger beast was injured, its defensive ability was still very strong. Almost every time when his sword reaches the range that can cause damage to it, it has already found a countermeasure to easily resolve it.
After going back and forth like this, Ouyang Xiaoleng's attack was revealed due to impatience, and the green tiger beast's sharp claws slashed through his waist without paying attention.
Its nails are like the sharpest knives. When injured by such a sharp knife, it will not feel any pain. It will take a few seconds for the pain to suddenly strike.
"hiss"
Although the pain in his buttocks shot up from his waist, Ouyang Xiaolen still gritted his teeth and took advantage of the green tiger beast's vulnerability when it launched its attack to return the sword.
