Chapter 136: Muscle and brain clashes

Cold air blew everywhere, accompanying the flying ice blades. Steel fists howled in the wind, and fangs growled furiously.

Xiong Li and the others' fight against Bai Ning Bing had reached its climax.

Not much time has passed since the battle began, to be honest. But as the pressure from Bai Ning Bing grew stronger, Xiong Li and the others began to feel that time was running longer with the difficulties he had posed.

Xiong Jiang's face was dim as water, Xiong Lin's forehead dripping with cold sweat, while Xiong Li maintained a serious gaze.

At this point, even Xiong Li had to hold back his anger and acknowledge Bai Ning Bing's overwhelming strength. Although Bai Ning Bing suppressed her third rank cultivation, and only fought with the second rank Gu worm, she displayed a strength capable of suppressing their entire group.

But even so, in reality Bai Ning Bing had not even given it her all. This was not intentional to prove a point, but rather a precaution against Fang Yuan.

For Xiong Li and the others, their motive was simple, namely capturing or killing Bai Ning Bing.

But for Bai Ning Bing, the situation was more complicated.

He had to fight Xiong Li's group on one side, while simultaneously keeping watch to prevent Fang Yuan's sneak attack on the other.

He had seen Fang Yuan use Stealth Scales Gu with his own eyes, so in battle he had to make sure to divert some of his attention to prevent Fang Yuan's attack.

But until now, Fang Yuan had not made a move.

“Did he leave? Impossible! Although this was our first meeting, he was not the type to retreat! He will definitely act. He's just biding his time.” Bai Ning Bing swung her ice blade and pressed down on Xiong Li, while her mind was raging in her mind.

Not only did he have to use his strength to fight against Xiong Li's group, he also had to contend with Fang Yuan using his intelligence.

Fang Yuan refused to attack further pressing himself. The sheathed sword was the most dangerous, as one would not be able to predict where the sword would stab.

Although Fang Yuan did not attack, and was secretly watching the battle, he was able to distract Bai Ning Bing all along. If not for this diversion, Xiong Li's group would have lost a long time ago, otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to last so long.

“Bai Ning Bing is very thorough. First he killed the daring lightning wolf decisively, reducing the pawns I could use. Next he risked injury to kill Master Gu who was healing in Xiong Li's group. All of these actions were the most reasonable decisions to make in his situation. Even though he was engaged in a serious battle with Xiong Li's group, he still refrained from preventing my attack, actually.

Under the shadow of a nearby tree, Fang Yuan crossed his arms as he looked, his eyes shining with uncertainty.

It was not that he did not want to attack, but he could not find an opportunity to do so.

But he wasn't worried.

The longer this dragged on, the more battle power would be drained from Bai Ning Bing. The Ten Extreme bodies had the highest recovery rate of the primordial essence, more than A value, but it was still spent over time.

The longer Fang Yuan waited, the more ancient essences were used in Bai Ning Bing's gap, and the more the scale of victory would shift towards Fang Yuan.

If Bai Ning Bing's hole didn't have any ancient essence left, then what if he was the Northern Dark Ice Soul Body? One moonblade and he's beheaded!

Fang Yuan knew this, and Bai Ning Bing was also aware of this fact.

Even though he was currently in the upper hand, his heart grew heavier.

"I can't go on like this!" Bai Ning Bing's blue eyes shone as she took a step back, drawing some distance from Xiong Li's group.

Next he gulped, his throat expanding like something was rising from his stomach into his mouth.

His jaw held high as he opened his mouth with great difficulty.

A small icy blue bird emerged from its mouth, its head raised above its white teeth. It looked around and immediately found it locked onto a certain gaze.

Jumping from Bai Ning Bing's mouth, the ice-cold little bird flapped its wings forcefully, flying towards Xiong Li.

The little blue bird was cute like a pigeon, but the faces of Xiong Li and the others lost their color after seeing it.

"Rank three Gu Blue Bird Ice Coffin?"

"Stay away from him, hurry!"

Xiong Li's group frantically tried to dodge, but this blue ice bird was nothing like a moon sword; once sent, it was locked onto the target.

"explosion!"

It crashed into Gu Master's support in Xiong Li's group, before immediately exploding.

Cold air blew everywhere, and the piercing blue light from the explosion illuminated the entire battlefield.

The next second, blue light spread out, and the partially transparent ice block was revealed, a cold watery blue.

Master Gu looked sealed within the ice block, his face still harboring fear and anxiety before death, but he had lost all marks of life.

Even though Bai Ning Bing was already a Rank three Master Gu, once the rank three Gu worm was used, the rank two primeval essence suppressed in his aperture would quickly run out. At the same time, it was unable to display the true strength of a rank three Gu worm. Moreover, after being used, during the next period, the enemy could take advantage of this opportunity to attack.

But the group of three Xiong Li froze in shock, startled by this Blue Bird Ice Coffin Gu.

Bai Ning Bing did not follow up on the attack, and instead turned around and left, trying to leave the battlefield.

This was a wise decision, because if he continued, the situation would become even more unfavorable for him.

"Suckers…"

"Bai Ning Bing, don't run if you have the guts!"

"Sister Xiong Xin was killed by him, kill him, revenge for brother Xiong Xin !!!"

Xiong Li's group cursed loudly, but could not catch up.

Originally, the four of them were barely enough to form a siege, but now that they had one person less, their blockade was easily broken by Bai Ning Bing.

“Bam!”

Bai Ning Bing's ice bar waved, and removed the moon blade. But his stomach was hit by someone, throwing him back with three big steps.

During this period, Xiong Li and the others came to their senses from fainting, approached and surrounded Bai Ning Bing again.

Bai Ning Bing ignored the three, instead staring at the newcomer, laughing.

“So you finally showed up. .”

"This is Fang Yuan!" Xiong Lin's eyes shone, seeing a glimmer of hope.

"Fang Yuan, good job!" Xiong Jiang was overjoyed, shouting.

Xiong Li remained silent; although he looked rash, his mind was more meticulous than others. Fang Yuan didn't attack earlier, but suddenly appeared... . Had he been watching the battle all this time? Thinking of this possibility made him uneasy.

Fang Yuan smiled lightly, showing a victorious appearance, but his heart sank. Bai Ning Bing's retreating action was to force her to appear. Fang Yuan was clear of his intentions, and looked at it, but so what if he did? He has to show up.

Xiong Li's expression was also taken into account, and he had already expected it.

“Confirm, everything.” He opened his mouth. "I've already told the clan, wait a moment there, reinforcements will come!"

Xiong Li was instantly relieved.

Xiong Lin, Xiong Jiang's battle spirit ignited, and Bai Ning Bing suddenly laughed out loud, “Haha, so she called Fang Yuan, a very attractive man… I just want to kill you even more now!!!”

"I'm afraid you're not capable enough to accomplish that." Fang Yuan's eyes shone with a cold light, taking a step forward.

"Bai Ning Bing, heaven wants you dead, you're done!" Xiong Jiang gnashed his teeth, running to Bai Ning Bing.

"Bai Ning Bing, you are too arrogant, you will pay the price today!" Xiong Lin growled, moving towards Bai Ning Bing's back.

"Fang Yuan, back off a little, support us and prevent Bai Ning Bing from escaping." Xiong Li said.

If Fang Yuan interfered, it would destroy the chemistry the three of them shared.

Fighting continued.

Fang Yuan's expression was calm while he continued to attack, treating Xiong Li's words as if it was air.

Xiong Li's group frowned; the interference of outsiders would cause the battle formation to go awry, and their cooperation would start to fail. But every attack of Fang Yuan was ruthless and resolute, having a firm grasp of opportunities, instead of greatly helping them.

At first, Xiong Li growled threateningly at him, but soon, he kept his mouth shut. His pouting face slowly subsided, and his eyebrows began to lift, revealing his shock towards Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan did not attack much, but every attack he made had huge implications on the battle. After his master level method was displayed, he instantly understood the battle in his hands.

The group of five Xiong Li had originally been at a disadvantage when fighting Bai Ning Bing, and ended up getting their two members killed. But as soon as Fang Yuan joined forces, along with the combined combat prowess of the three, they managed to squeeze Bai Ning Bing into a corner.

"Bai Ning Bing, just go and die!"

Xiong Li growled loudly, jumping and landing hard. His ten fingers intertwined to form a punch, slamming towards Bai Ning Bing.

Bai Ning Bing wanted to dodge, but Fang Yuan appeared at that moment, and at the same time shot out a moon sword, blocking the direction in which he wanted to jump.

Bai Ning Bing had no choice but to withstand Xiong Li's attack.

"Water Shield Gu!"

From his nostrils, two lines of water vapor circled his body, forming a ball-shaped barrier of condensed water vapor.

With a violent impact and a compressed explosion, Xiong Li's heavy blow landed on the barrier, penetrating it instantly.

But this action also caused the punch to lose all of its speed and allowed Bai Ning Bing to escape death.

Even so, Xiong Li glanced at Fang Yuan, showing signs of admiration. If not for his outstanding cooperation, this blow would have been avoided by Bai Ning Bing. It would not force Bai Ning Bing to accept the blow, depleting her ancient essence.

"Water Shield Gu again ..."

Fang Yuan did not mind Xiong Li's gaze, but focused on Bai Ning Bing, frowning.

It was this Water Shield Gu that alleviated Bai Ning Bing's difficulty. The defensive strength of the water shield was even superior to White Jade Gu.

But it has a weakness — he needs to form a ball shape and rely on moving water to pull the force away, spreading the damage to display his full defensive ability.

If Bai Ning Bing hit the wall, she could not form a ball and her defensive strength would be greatly reduced.

There was a lot of forest on Qing Mao Mountain, but even so Bai Ning Bing was very careful, making sure not to go into such a tight spot.

“As long as I defeat this Water Shield Gu, I can put Bai Ning Bing in a tight spot. But how is it going?" Fang Yuan was thinking, but suddenly Bai Ning Bing's mouth opened, and a new blue bird flew out.

Xiong Li and the others were afraid of this attack, but Fang Yuan was not confused in the slightest.

He snorted coldly, shooting out a moon sword.

With a bam, the moonblade crashed into the ice bird, causing it to explode.

Bai Ning Bing growled in a low voice, she got too close, and after the ice bird exploded, she was also hit.

The impact caused him to fly and then fall to the ground. At the same time, half of his left limb froze, losing his ability to fight.

“Divine opportunity!” Seeing this, Xiong Li's eyes shone with brilliance, shouting "Death!" and his arms gathered together to form another punch towards Bai Ning Bing.

This punch was too heavy, and when Bai Ning Bing was on the ground, the Water Shield Gu's defensive ability was less than half of what it normally was; if this hit his head, there was no doubt him, no doubt about it, Bai Ning Bing, will die instantly.
