Chapter 589: Fearsome Spiritual Beast

“Your speed is very fast. However, it isn’t enough!”

Bai Shuang looked at Sun Mo. There were no ripples in her expression because the situation was within her prediction and grasp.

If Sun Mo didn’t even have this bit of strength, he wouldn’t be qualified to be taught a lesson personally by her.

As Bai Shuang spoke, she stretched her hands out and snapped her fingers.

Pak! Pak! Pak!

Every time she snapped her fingers, every time her middle finger and thumb rubbed against each other, they were like flint clashing against each other. Radiant spirit qi fireworks erupted forth and rapidly formed many walnut-sized balls of light that shot toward Sun Mo.

They emitted silver light. For a time, they were a little piercing to the eyes and extremely dazzling.

“What a cool skill!”

The audience exclaimed in wonder. This attack from Bai Shuang was truly too handsome! However, the examinees weren’t in the leisure to admire it. They were watching the exchange of blows so intently that their scalps turned numb.

When they put themselves in Sun Mo’s shoes, they understood that their bodies would be penetrated by these balls of light so many times that they turned into a sieve.

In a few breaths of time, Bai Shuang had shot out tens of spirit qi light balls and proceeded to engulf Sun Mo with her attacks.

“Who could avoid that?”

The papaya girl felt depressed.

“Bai Shuang’s method of resolving a problem is so simple and violent. Yet, it is very effective!’

Tong Yiming sighed ruefully.

Geniuses truly couldn’t be measured with logic.

(Sun Mo, since your speed is so fast, I shall cover ⅓ of the arena with my attacks. I want to see how you would dodge them!)

Bai Shuang continued snapping her fingers. Every time she did so, it was as though a death god was chanting death incantations.

On the contrary, Sun Mo chose not to dodge anymore. He drew in a deep breath and pierced out with his wooden blade.

Eighteen Words Order!

Chi! Chi! Chi!

The wooden blade emitted sounds of wind breaking as it tore through the air, slashing into those balls of light and causing small explosions.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Spirit qi dissipated, blowing away the dust on the ground.

Actually, Sun Mo could use ‘Paying someone back in their own coin’, but in view of Bai Shuang’s identity, he changed his mind. There were merely a total of 72 balls of light here, and Sun Mo could block all of them.

This time around, Bai Shuang’s expression gradually grew heavier because Sun Mo didn’t do things according to logic.

From Bai Shuang’s predictions, Sun Mo had to avoid her attacks. In fact, she had thought of how she would change her moves and lure him into a disadvantageous position based on his responses. But Sun Mo had clashed head-on against those light balls, making all her predictions useless. It was a waste of brainpower to think up those scenarios.

BOOM!

After slashing apart the last light ball, Sun Mo charged forward and appeared before Bai Shuang. Because his speed was too quick, it was as though he had just performed teleportation.

“I will accept your challenge!”

Bai Shuang spoke. Sun Mo could avoid those light balls but didn’t do so. He wanted to use his martial strength to suppress her.

Sun Mo’s lips curled. Just when his wooden blade was about to slash down, Bai Shuang’s spirit qi fluctuations suddenly sank.

“What the hell?”

Sun Mo frowned. Usually speaking, when cultivators were in combat, they needed to use spirit qi constantly. Hence, the spirit qi fluctuations around them would be extremely intense. There were only two possibilities why the spirit qi fluctuations from Bai Shuang’s body were so weak. Firstly, she was a salted fish and couldn’t react in time. Secondly, it was to avoid Sun Mo from detecting her ultimate technique. Hence, she intentionally suppressed her spirit qi fluctuations.

Bai Shuang absolutely wasn’t a salted fish. In that case, only the second possibility was left.

Bai Shuang stretched out her right hand, and a ball of light shot out from her index finger.

Its speed was too fast, and it pierced through Sun Mo’s shoulder. Its excess power slammed into the arena.

BOOM!

The stones on the floor broke apart, leaving behind a hole the size of a basketball.

Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

Light balls erupted forth rapidly from her index finger. According to logic, with such a near distance, there was no way Sun Mo could evade. It would be like trying to dodge a point-blank bullet.

However, at this moment, Sun Mo’s combat instinct kicked in. He depended on brute strength and his fastest speed as he slashed toward Bai Shuang.

Bang!

Bai Shuang felt pain and her right hand shifted due to the impact. The light balls naturally missed their target.

Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

The streaks of spiritual fluctuation missed Sun Mo by centimeters, and he was like dancing on a blade’s tip, dodging the light balls perfectly with the most minute movements. After that, he retaliated with his blade attacks.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The wooden blade slashed into Bai Shuang’s body unceasingly.

In Sun Mo’s vision, Bai Shuang’s head spluttered with golden light as golden pages shot out of it repeatedly.

Sadly, there weren’t the melodious sounds of ‘ding’ ‘ding’ ‘ding’. (SFX for headshots in fps games)

“H…how could he avoid the bullets in such a situation?”

The examinees were dumbfounded. What constitution did Sun Mo have? Did he train his agility every single day?

His eruption force, his flexibility, his terrifying motor response and speed…(Don’t tell me you can even catch a flying arrow barehanded?)

Chi~

A beam of light finally pierced through Sun Mo’s rib area, leaving behind a hole.

“Ah!”

The papaya girl screamed in shock. After that, she felt pain in her right hand. She lowered her head and saw that her hand was tightly grabbed by her eldest martial sister.

“Why can he still stand?”

Bai Shuang’s expression finally changed. She grew very impatient. This feeling was like a fly was buzzing around her, and she was unleashing all her strength to smack it with a fly swatter but to no avail.

When humans grew anxious, they would naturally make mistakes.

At the start, Bai Shuang was still predicting Sun Mo’s movements. But now, she only wanted to crush him as quickly as possible. Hence, her balls of light flew after Sun Mo instead of pre-launching them in anticipation of his movements. To Sun Mo, this was the perfect chance for retaliation.

Sun Mo stepped aside, dodging the balls of light. After that, his wooden blade swept out horizontally, slashing through the gap.

“Oh no!”

Bai Shuang wanted to block, but she couldn’t do so in time.

Bang!

The wooden blade smashed against her kidney, and the gigantic impact caused her to be flung through the air directly.

Golden Jade Hibiscus!

Swish~ Swish~

The wooden blade arced past as two beautiful hibiscuses bloomed in the air, shooting toward Bai Shuang.

At the same time, Sun Mo’s left leg exerted force, pushing him off the ground as he sped over.

(Cherish the fairer sex?)

(There’s no such thing!)

At this very instant, seven apple-sized balls of silver light appeared around Bai Shuang. After that, they linked into a single line and smashed toward Sun Mo.

Sun Mo waved his blade to block them, but the balls seemed to have their own consciousness and evaded his attacks before shooting toward his head again.

Spirit Guidance!

“F***!”

Everyone cursed out loud due to their shock. This was definitely a saint-tier cultivation art, and it was overwhelmingly strong.

Invulnerable Golden Body!

Golden light emitted from Sun Mo’s body, and he was hit by the seven balls of light at the next moment.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Sun Mo’s body trembled violently from the impact, causing him to be thrown off his trajectory.

Just when Bai Shuang was about to fall off the arena, her fingers quickly made some incantation seals. After that, she bit the tip of her lips and spat out a ball of blood mist.

BOOM!

A vast amount of spirit qi gushed forth from Bai Shuang and entered the blood mist. The blood mist expanded rapidly and after that, a thick and large arm stretched out.

Pak!

The arm directly grabbed Bai Shuang and pulled her back onto the arena.

“You are able to force me to summon a spiritual beast. I admit that you are a worthy adversary.”

Bai Shuang’s expression was heavy.

Hua~

Everyone exclaimed in shock. As the summer wind blew apart the blood mist, a three-meter-tall giant appeared in the arena.

It was so tall and towering, resembling a heaven-supporting pillar. Just by standing there, it looked like it could even pierce through the dome of heavens.

This giant was clad in a complete piece of male lion skin, along with the head as a helmet. Through its fixed expression, one could tell that the lion had died in the throes of absolute despair and terror.

The giant’s body had multiple-color totem tattoos, exuding an ancient desolate aura.

“Who could win against that?”

The papaya girl wailed. She was like a kitten who saw her owner getting bitten by a mad dog.

“I really feel like going down there to fight!”

Xuanyuan Po leaned forward with his eyes wide open, staring at the giant in an intoxicated manner. Only a fellow like this was worthy to be called an opponent.

“Sun Mo will lose for sure!”

The uglier guy grew joyful. “After winning this bet, I will be able to buy another half a shop.”

He spoke very loudly, intentionally wanting the average-looking guy to hear him.

“Sun Mo, once Biggy attacks, I will have no way to control the degree of destruction it causes. This is the last time you can beg for mercy.”

Bai Shuang persuaded Sun Mo.

Bai Shuang couldn’t be considered bad. She merely wanted to vent for her junior school brother and had no intention to kill Sun Mo.

“Why don’t you call it Super?”

Sun Mo chortled. “Or Big White? Che, Big White is a bad name. This fellow is too dark!”

Swish~

Biggy’s eyes turned over. His sharp gaze was like angry lightning, capable of piercing people.

Sun Mo activated Divine Sight.

Spirit of an ancient giant. Unknown lifeform, unable to obtain any data!

“What the hell?”

Sun Mo frowned. “My Divine Sight is at the ancestor-level, yet I can’t even obtain the data of a spiritual beast? How strong is this fellow exactly?”

“System, are you pulling a prank on me?”

Sun Mo doubted.

“Nope!”

The system decisively denied it.

Sun Mo felt some disbelief, but at this moment, he had no time to care about this.

Biggy’s weapon was a bronze battle hammer, and it struck toward Sun Mo as a bronze-colored thunder blasted out.

RUMBLE!

Sun Mo dodged.

BOOM!

As a result, a giant hole appeared in the arena.

“So like I said, 80% of spiritual controllers’ combat strength is in their spiritual beasts. As long as we found a powerful spiritual beast, we would be invincible.”

An examinee that focused on the art of spiritual control boasted complacently.

“Stop boasting. If this giant were to be given to you, you would die instantly from the spiritual backlash.”

Someone spoke in contempt.

“Zhe, what a pity. If I was the one fighting against Bai Shuang, I would have killed the giant and used her as a stepping stone on my road to fame!”

Shan Shi crossed his arms across his chest and felt some regret. After that, he glanced at Sun Mo. (If your capabilities merely amount to this, I can just spit a mouthful of saliva at you and the championship will be mine.”

“In that case, goodbye!”

Bai Shuang turned and instructed Biggy, “Try your best to spare his life.”

Howl~

The spirit of the ancient giant howled in rage. After that, it shot toward Sun Mo with a great rumbling sound. Its aura was like an avalanche in the Himalayas, wanting to engulf everything.

For a time, the dust in the surroundings floated up because of its aura.

“Would cultivation arts from ancient times appear if I used Immemorial Vairocana to hit it?”

Sun Mo’s eyes narrowed as he slashed out with his wooden blade ferociously.
