He relied on the indestructible defensive power of the White Tiger Barrier and his pair of incomparably sharp, cold-glinting giant tiger claws.
Like a fierce tiger descending a mountain, he swung both claws, creating streaks of pale claw shadows.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
After several muffled thuds, Dai Mubai easily crushed the incoming wood and stones into powder, sending wood chips flying everywhere.
Dai Mubai brushed the dust off his hands and looked at Tang San with a contemptuous gaze, mocking, "What? Are these the only petty tricks you have?"
"I suppose it makes sense, since your second spirit ring is just a useless white ten-year spirit ring."
Dai Mubai ridiculed him mercilessly, "I imagine that trash ring didn't give you any useful combat spirit abilities at all, did it?"
Dai Mubai's words could be said to have struck directly and ruthlessly at the most painful scar in Tang San's heart.
Purple Light instantly flared in Tang San's eyes, and a cold killing intent spread uncontrollably.
He said coldly, "That teacher just said it himself: as long as I can win against you, I can use any means necessary."
But before Dai Mubai could react to what Tang San meant by this sudden, cryptic statement...
Tang San's hands had already moved like phantoms, swiftly reaching for the storage belt at his waist.
"Mysterious Jade Hand!"
Tang San's hands instantly became as translucent as white jade, impervious to all poisons.
In the next second, dense whistling sounds of breaking air rang out as countless Hidden Weapons, shimmering with an eerie blue light, were fired frantically at Dai Mubai like a violent storm!
Seeing the dense, sky-covering array of weapons shooting toward him, Dai Mubai was startled and couldn't help but curse, "Holy shit! What the hell is this!"
In his urgency, the second hundred-year spirit ring beneath Dai Mubai suddenly activated.
"Second Spirit Ability, White Tiger Light Wave!"
An incredibly dazzling, massive white pillar of light, over half a meter in diameter, suddenly erupted from his mouth!
This violent light wave carried a crushing Aura, directly blasting through the dense low-level Hidden Weapons in mid-air, vaporizing them or knocking them aside.
Afterward, the remaining power of the White Tiger Light Wave did not diminish; carrying an Aura of destruction, it blasted straight toward Tang San's face!
Seeing the light wave approaching his body, Tang San's footsteps instantly became illusory as he stepped out with profound footwork.
It was the Tang Sect Ultimate Technique, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track!
Tang San's figure left an afterimage in place while his true body narrowly dodged the strike; the light wave exploded into a large crater on the ground in the distance.
Tang San did not stop at all, continuing to use his footwork to constantly change his position.
Moving rapidly, he continuously waved his hands from various tricky and dead-angle perspectives, firing even more Hidden Weapons at Dai Mubai.
Facing this unending barrage of Hidden Weapons, Dai Mubai was now drenched in sweat, not daring to be the slightest bit careless.
Because his keen intuition could clearly see that some of the Hidden Weapons grazing his shield were clearly coated in poison!
Being forced to such an extent by a Spirit Grandmaster made Dai Mubai feel like he was losing face; he let out a roar and directly used his strongest trump card.
"third spirit ability, White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"
As his only purple thousand-year spirit ring lit up, Dai Mubai's already sturdy body expanded once more.
His muscles bulged like granite, and golden fur grew wildly.
This powerful third spirit ability, combined with the dual effect of the First Spirit Skill, White Tiger Barrier...
...instantly gave Dai Mubai's attack power, defense, and resistance to various abnormal statuses a terrifying, multi-fold increase!
Now, he was practically a human bulldozer!
"Go down for me!"
Dai Mubai's eyes were blood-red as he fired several powerful White Tiger Light Waves in succession at the scurrying Tang San.
After sealing off Tang San's retreat, Dai Mubai slammed his foot against the ground, and his entire person shot forward like a cannonball, rushing toward Tang San at an incredible speed!
Facing this mountain-crushing charge, Tang San grit his teeth and moved his hands frantically, wanting to use layers upon layers of Blue Silver Grass to obstruct Dai Mubai's violent advance.
However, facing the current Dai Mubai with all his buffs active and his strength at its Peak...
...Tang San's Blue Silver Grass, supported by only level twenty-nine spirit power, was severely lacking in its inherent toughness.
The moment those vines touched Dai Mubai's body, they were shattered into powder by that terrifying Protective Aura. How could they possibly trap him for even a second?
Watching Dai Mubai get closer and closer, Tang San had nowhere left to retreat.
Under the pressure of life and death, Tang San could only bite the bullet and activate that second Spirit Ability that made him feel so humiliated.
"Second Spirit Ability, Blue Silver Pole Vault!"
A bare blue pole instantly appeared in Tang San's hand; he slammed the pole into the ground and, using the incredible recoil, vaulted high into the air with a "whoosh."
This jump allowed him to incredibly clear Dai Mubai's head, landing in the air behind Dai Mubai's defenseless back.
While in mid-air, between Tang San's fair fingers, two Hidden Weapons shimmering with golden light had quietly emerged.
It was the Dragon Beard Needle, specifically designed to pierce internal Protective Aura and various spirit power shields!
With killing intent exposed in his eyes, Tang San looked down from above at Dai Mubai's broad back and mercilessly fired the Dragon Beard Needles!
The Dragon Beard Needle was a Sharp Weapon for piercing armor; Dai Mubai's proud White Tiger Barrier was practically non-existent before it, offering no defense whatsoever!
Below him, Dai Mubai, who was just about to turn around and strike Tang San...
...momentarily stiffened in his robust charging form when he looked up and saw Tang San use this so-called "second Spirit Ability."
Mainly, he had never expected that Tang San's second Spirit Ability would be such a ridiculous and comical pole vaulting move!
This intense visual contrast caused Dai Mubai's brain to inevitably freeze for a brief moment in that life-or-death instant.
When experts clash, even a 0.1-second lapse in concentration is fatal!
And it was precisely because of this moment of daze that the Dragon Beard Needles fired by Tang San completely found their mark!
With two imperceptible soft sounds, the golden-glinting Dragon Beard Needles pierced through the defense of the White Tiger Barrier without any obstruction.
They shot deep into Dai Mubai's defenseless back muscles, and the curled dragon beards instantly exploded frantically within the flesh!
"Ah!"
As the two Dragon Beard Needles shot deep into his body, Dai Mubai's eyes widened, and a roar of pain escaped his throat.
Once the golden-glinting Dragon Beard Needles entered his back muscles, they curled up rapidly like living things.
