Chapter 713 The Slow-witted Lion
Chapter 713 The Slow-witted Lion
Seeing this, even if the Lion King was incredibly stupid, he would know that the one who influenced the final outcome of the attack was the Taoist priest with the whisk standing in the distance.
He used a technique similar to shifting stars and changing shadows, or moving the universe, to replace the sword-wielding Taoist who was originally being attacked with a staff-wielding Taoist, thus redirecting the attack to the staff-wielding Taoist and preventing it from being fatal.
"interesting......"
Upon witnessing the Taoist priest's skill in substituting himself for the enemy, the Lion couldn't help but praise him. It seemed that the other party had used this method at the beginning to replace him and evade the attack.
There were some novel spells... but... that's enough for now!
After casting aside his frustration, the Lion King looked up at the Taoist priest with the staff again. The priest was still leaning against the tree. Because he had just suffered a serious injury, he had not fully recovered, so his combat power was far less than before.
And this is the perfect opportunity for the lion to attack him!
So what if he blocked the attack? He's not a man who would collapse after one blow. Although the attack just now had taken a lot of his energy, he still had plenty of energy left in his current state. If he continued to attack, how could the heavily injured Taoist priest be a match for him?
If I just kill this guy and then take out the remaining two one by one, wouldn't I win easily?
Humph!!!
Prepare to die...
Realizing that he still held the advantage and might even win the battle soon, the Lion King snorted smugly, already itching to make his move.
However, just as he gripped the axe and was about to strike, a question suddenly flashed through his mind!
Now that the staff-wielding Taoist has appeared in front of him and blocked the attack, where is the sword-wielding Taoist who was replaced?
Wait! Oh no!!!
call! ! ! !
Before he could even react, a towering wave of air erupted behind him.
The camera panned back, revealing that the sword-wielding Taoist was standing behind the Lion King. The gourd at his waist had vanished and reappeared in his hand, which he then drank down in one gulp.
As the gourd was emptied, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from the Taoist priest's body, making him appear as if he were enveloped in true energy, and he looked incredibly powerful.
If his danger level was one before, then after drawing the gourd and protecting his body with true energy, his danger level has increased by at least two levels.
Is it a last-minute burst of energy, or a change of state like the Lion King?
The Lion had no idea, because the moment he sensed the danger, the other party had already entered this special state and launched an attack that made the hair on his body stand on end.
He first took a step forward, and with a forceful stomp of his left foot, a Tai Chi pattern formed by Qi appeared on the ground.
The next moment, the true energy in his body began to flow faster, and then, under the rotation of Tai Chi, all the true energy gathered towards the silver-white sword in his hand.
"Reaching for the stars and changing the constellations!!!"
hum! ! !
A buzzing sound rang out, and the next moment the sword-wielding Taoist suddenly swung his sword, unleashing a burst of true energy. A sword aura more than a meter long tore through the air and slashed towards the back of the violent lion.
Uh-huh! ! ! ! !
boom! ! ! ! ! !
Faced with this sudden attack, the Lion had no time to defend itself, and its almost undefended back was directly attacked by the opponent.
boom! ! ! ! !
The moment the sword energy struck him, the gathered true energy suddenly erupted, unleashing a powerful impact, just as it had torn open the staff-wielding Taoist, tearing a large gash in his back.
"Ugh!!!"
Suffering such a severe blow, the three heads of the Lion let out a wail in unison, and its body uncontrollably collapsed to its knees. Pain and anger intertwined in its heart, causing it to show signs of weakness, which was originally in excellent condition.
Why?!
While furious, the Lion King was also filled with doubt. He wasn't asking why the other party had suddenly appeared behind him, but rather why he hadn't noticed the enemy's approach.
There is a major taboo in one-against-many situations: if an enemy is out of your sight for an extended period of time, you can't be sure when they will launch a sneak attack. Therefore, if you want to fight multiple opponents, you absolutely cannot make this mistake.
Of course, the Lion knew this. He had fought against many opponents before. In such situations, even if he wasn't facing the opponent directly, he would observe the other enemies out of the corner of his eye or use his senses to observe them.
But today, for some reason, his perception and thinking have become extremely dull, and this dullness is not obvious yet. It's like a poison, slowly eroding his mind as the battle progresses.
This meant that he, who could have detected the danger earlier, only realized at the moment the attack came that his reaction was definitely not normal.
Although the three-headed lion was somewhat agitated, it would never stop thinking, so its current state was definitely influenced by external forces.
There were no outsiders present, so the only ones responsible for this situation were the three Taoist priests.
Although he didn't know how they did it, the thought of it filled the Lion with a sudden sense of fear and urgency.
In this situation, it won't be long before he becomes a mindless idiot who only knows how to attack. At that time, the other party may not even need to think about how to deal with him. They can just play him like a dog.
This is something the Lion absolutely doesn't want to see!
Therefore, he was eager to finish the battle quickly, and after making this decision, the Lion King acted swiftly.
Roar~~~
A low growl came from his mouth, and the lion, which had been kneeling on the ground, suddenly launched an attack. This time, the target of the attack was quite clear: the Taoist priest with a staff, who had been severely injured by him and was now half dead.
His battle strategy remained unchanged: he would only have a chance to kill the other two if he killed one of them first.
The lion leaped into the air, and then its two heads quickly emitted sonic attacks like a lion's roar. This time, it wasn't just a simple roar, but a continuous, wide-range sonic attack.
Although this move was very costly, the benefits were also considerable. Under the continuous sonic attack, the already exhausted Sword Master and Dust-wielding Taoist were unable to help and could only watch helplessly as the raging lion pounced on the Staff-wielding Taoist.
The Taoist priest with the staff, also affected by the sonic waves, was unable to get up and run away. He could only fix his gaze on the lion, watching it charge towards him, before leaping high into the air and unleashing his attack:
