Chapter 1569: Chapter 930: The Mysterious Figure (Part 3)
Now the Chamber of Commerce man somewhat understood why this group chose this place to camp; there is a Dead Forest here, and the Half Ghost used his own abilities to turn it into a spider nest.
Anyone who rashly breaks in without knowing the truth will be shredded by the webs crisscrossing inside.
Moreover, these webs are not only sharp but also have a controlling effect, such as pulling distant teammates to oneself.
This ability is crucial for the Half Ghost, perfectly compensating for his mobility issue after losing his lower half, making it a perfect match.
At this moment, the Chamber of Commerce man truly realized the prowess of this team of Japanese Apostles. Whether it’s their cooperation or individual abilities, they were top-notch at their rank.
It’s important to know that these two are relatively easy to deal with; the truly troublesome ones are the leader "Curse Blade" and that woman nicknamed "Shadow Spider."
Suddenly, the panting Half Ghost let out a strange cry, and the Poison Man standing under the tree opened his arms and thrust two gloved hands into the water. The water domain laid by the Chamber of Commerce man had already covered most of the forest beneath their feet.
The next second, the Chamber of Commerce man’s pupils shrank as he saw the water surface turning pitch black at a visible speed, as if ink had been poured into it.
No, to be precise, it was poison; this was the Poison Man’s ability, and the blackened area was no longer under his control; his domain had been polluted.
More terrifying is that these polluted poisons seemed to have a life of their own, twisting and spreading towards the area where he was hiding.
Bear in mind, he was in an invisible state, yet the Poison Man actually found his true hiding place by polluting his domain.
Although they hadn’t accurately located him yet, the general direction was correct. Confirming his position was just a matter of time.
Even with his experience, the Chamber of Commerce man rarely encountered such troublesome opponents, especially when there were five of them.
This was indeed a formidable team.
Realizing that the Poison Man could identify his opponent, the Half Ghost hanging on a tree let out an unpleasant laugh, like taunting their overestimation of their own abilities.
This scene also ignited the Chamber of Commerce man’s fighting spirit; it was just the beginning of the game. "Sand Woman, chop down that grove and let those Japanese Ghosts see our methods!"
"Hiding here and there, what kind of skill is that? I’ll tear down your house!"
The woman from the Chamber of Commerce, nicknamed Sand Woman, no longer held back. As both hands rose, a sandstorm suddenly surged from the ground, growing more intense, eventually forming a massive black tornado, much more violent than when they dealt with Yang Xiao.
As the sandstorm formed, the Sand Woman’s figure had completely vanished, countless sand blades shot out from the sandstorm, rushing towards the Dead Forest like a dark tide.
Yang Xiao had experienced the power of these sand blades before, saying that they were no less than being hacked by a knife or an axe. The edge of the forest saw trees being felled in clusters, making an extremely shocking scene.
"So, you were holding back..." Yang Xiao felt relieved upon seeing this. The Chamber of Commerce duo was indeed chosen by the Yi Sect for a reason.
Either one of them alone would be a decent expert among apostles of the same level, but when the two cooperated, their combat power far exceeded the simplicity of one plus one.
Their cooperation was seamless, and more precious was that their abilities complemented each other. As the Sand Woman launched a fierce attack on the Dead Forest, the Chamber of Commerce man used his invisibility ability and Water Substitute to hold off the interfering lower half of the Ghost.
Yang Xiao, too, was extremely experienced in combat. He greatly appreciated the Chamber of Commerce duo’s choice. The guy nicknamed Half Ghost possessed sharp lines, and fighting him in close combat would be a great disadvantage, so their tactic was a long-range large-scale attack, directly dismantling the opponent’s base.
"I remind you, if you don’t make a move, your two brothers down there won’t last long." Yang Xiao deliberately taunted the Japanese Woman opposite him.
But the other party seemed completely uninterested in the situation elsewhere, with all her attention focused solely on Yang Xiao.
Because she knew that Yang Xiao’s apparent distraction was feigned. He was quite a cunning guy; he had already locked onto her with a Magic Artifact, secretly charging up, ready to strike immediately if she got distracted or revealed any flaw.
Neither Yang Xiao nor the Japanese Woman acted rashly, both seeking the other’s weaknesses, looking for a one-hit-kill opportunity.
Contrary to appearances, Yang Xiao was not as composed as he seemed, knowing full well that the Chamber of Commerce duo’s extravagant use of spiritual power was largely due to the effects of an Elixir from the Yi Sect. Once the elixir wore off before dealing with the Poison Man and Half Ghost, the situation would immediately reverse, requiring him to divert his attention to assist them.
The area of the Dead Forest wasn’t small. To completely level it with sand blades would take a considerable amount of time, and the Chamber of Commerce woman’s spiritual power might not last until then.
This was a race against time; half an hour was their maximum limit.
Yang Xiao now strongly suspected that the Japanese Woman on the opposite side also realized that such an onslaught couldn’t last.
The battle continued, the overwhelming Black Sandstorm brought immense shock to the Half Ghost and Poison Man, a feeling as if the apocalypse had arrived.
At the critical moment, a figure arrived and stood like a wall in front of the teammates, it was the burly Stone Beast. The sharp sand blades shattered upon hitting him, turning into fine sand and burrowing into the gaps in his armor.
