Chapter 831: Chapter 835: The Fourth Trial 8
And not far from the Long Tooth Beast, Yadang stood still, his eyes gleaming with a red light.
A closer look would reveal that red light was also shining in several of the beast’s eyes that were facing him.
Clearly, it was under Yadang’s control through his superpower.
When Qiu Mo saw Gaiyin chop off the Spider Legs so neatly with his broadsword, he couldn’t help the itch in his heart.
He infused his own superpower with Primordial Power, causing the water to condense into ice, forming a large icy sword glinting with a cold light.
Qiu Mo imitated Gaiyin’s earlier actions, flipping the ice blade and chopping down hard on the Spider Legs.
He had thought it would be an easy catch, but alas—
"Clang—Crack—"
The instant the ice sword collided with the Spider Legs, starting at the point of contact, countless cracks spread across the ice sword.
With a clatter, the ice sword that Qiu Mo held in his hands broke into large and small pieces and scattered across the ground.
Qiu Mo: "..."
However, his attack was not completely futile, as the Long Tooth Beast howled in pain. But unfortunately, many of its eyes were bewitched by Yadang, making it impossible to fully control its body.
The eight Spider Legs of the Long Tooth Beast flailed and struggled, scraping the walls and floor of the Cave with such ease, like slicing through tofu, that the sound made one’s teeth ache.
Qiu Mo rolled away with great force.
At his original location, a Spider Leg plunged deep into the ground for several feet.
Before he could catch his breath, another gleaming Spider Leg stabbed towards him from above.
Being too close to dodge in time, Qiu Mo could only brace himself and conjure a large Ice Shield above his head.
The base of the Spider Legs was very sharp.
With a small pressure point, even though Qiu Mo’s Ice Shield was very solid, under the Long Tooth Beast’s great force, a spiderweb-like pattern of cracks appeared on it, as if it would shatter the next second.
Underneath, Qiu Mo continued to pour Primordial Power into his Ice Shield, barely holding on, and he couldn’t move at all due to the intense pressure.
Su Tang and Qiu Mo watched from the side, their hearts in knots, daring not to make a sound for fear of disturbing them.
After Gaiyin and Xi’en had dealt with the Long Tooth Beast, they noticed the situation on Qiu Mo’s side and hurried over.
Xi’en took just a moment to catch his breath, then threw out vine strips again, pulling the Spider Legs toward him with force, greatly relieving the pressure on Qiu Mo.
Following that, Gaiyin’s broadsword struck down, and the Long Tooth Beast lost a leg in a gallant manner.
Qiu Mo breathed a sigh of relief, stood up from the ground, and nodded to Gaiyin, "Thanks!"
Gaiyin didn’t speak but patted Qiu Mo’s shoulder and then lifted his sword to chop at the other Spider Legs.
In no time at all, another Long Tooth Beast, its eight legs severed, lay floundering and screaming in a pool of dark green blood.
Gaiyin sheathed his sword, a look of disgust washing over his face as he shook off the Mucus in his hand.
Qiu Mo, with a casual flick, conjured a Water Ball and splashed it toward him.
After Gaiyin washed his hands, his expression cleared up a bit.
Not far away, Su Tang also retracted her protective shield and ran to Gaiyin’s side with a pale face, "Are you alright? Are you injured?"
Gaiyin shook his head, "I’m fine."
Then, everyone’s attention turned to the two Long Tooth Beasts on the ground that were not yet dead.
Qiu Mo looked at Gaiyin with a puzzled face, "Why did my sword have no effect on them, while yours could easily chop off their legs?"
Gaiyin frowned, he didn’t say anything, but he lowered his head and spread out his palms.
