Chapter 188: Mental Lash (First update, requesting subscriptions)

However, Zhao Shuyi's expression was unusually grave. She was unsure of Aixi's quality, but it had definitely reached Superior Quality. Its species was slightly inferior to her Three-Tailed Snow Fox, but its Pressure trait made up for this well, and it even possessed an elemental advantage.

The most critical point was that her Three-Tailed Snow Fox was not at its peak, having been drained of quite a bit of stamina by the Flamingo.

What Zhao Shuyi did not know was that Aixi's quality had also reached the Top Quality category; the Three-Tailed Snow Fox had already lost its greatest advantage.

Furthermore, in duels between experts, everything comes down to details. Zhao Shuyi suffered from poor intelligence; not only was she led into a ditch by a pig-teammate, but she also did not fully understand Li Zhangsheng's main Demon Pet.

As for Li Zhangsheng, he had never interrupted his intelligence work regarding Zhao Shuyi, and had even been "paying attention" to the Three-Tailed Snow Fox the whole time. His understanding of the Three-Tailed Snow Fox was almost no worse than that of its owner, Zhao Shuyi. Except for the Red-Armored Earth Dragon which exceeded his expectations, everything else was within his predictions.

"Begin!" At this moment, the referee's voice rang out.

At this time, the Ice and Snow weather had a tendency to subside.

For weather-type skills like this, their duration is related to the Demon Pet's realm; the higher the Demon Pet's realm, the longer the duration.

"Three-Tailed Snow Fox, Ice Breath!" Zhao Shuyi chose to strike first.

The Three-Tailed Snow Fox's three tails stood up, ice-blue radiance condensed on the tails, and in the blink of an eye, it emitted a torrent of ice.

Rise Wind!

Before the ice torrent could get close, Aixi let out a roar and was instantly enveloped in light cyan Wind Element energy, as if it had draped a cyan Wind Cloak over itself, which increased its speed by more than thirty percent.

Most importantly, the Rise Wind skill could be maintained for a period of time.

Mental Acceleration!

At the same time, Li Zhangsheng's Mental Power flowed away rapidly. He once again activated the Secret Technique Imprint of Mental Acceleration, this time bestowing it upon Aixi, causing Aixi's speed to surge once more, strengthening its greatest specialty—speed!

Under the dual acceleration, Aixi seemed to shift its form and change its shadow, suddenly pouncing toward the Three-Tailed Snow Fox, while the ice torrent that was about to hit Aixi could only strike the phantom it left in place.

In the process of rapidly approaching the Three-Tailed Snow Fox, Aixi took the opportunity to open its bloody maw, countless cyan light spots condensed, instantly turning into a huge Wind Blade a zhang long, spinning rapidly as it slashed diagonally toward the Three-Tailed Snow Fox.

"Three-Tailed Snow Fox, use Lightning Flash quickly!" Zhao Shuyi's expression changed drastically; Aixi's speed clearly exceeded her expectations.

In an instant, the Three-Tailed Snow Fox seemed to turn into a bolt of lightning, using its astonishing explosive power to increase its speed to the limit, successfully avoiding the huge Wind Blade in a precarious manner, wanting to take the opportunity to put some distance between itself and Aixi.

Unfortunately, although its short-term explosive power was strong, it was only barely on par with Aixi, and most importantly, Lightning Flash could only be maintained for two or three seconds.

"It's our turn now, Aixi, Bite!"

When the Three-Tailed Snow Fox's speed dropped suddenly, Aixi pounced over with lightning speed. During this process, Aixi opened its mouth wide, revealing two long, sharp saber teeth, and bit toward the Three-Tailed Snow Fox.

Although it was a Commander Species, the Three-Tailed Snow Fox's fur defense was relatively average. Its greatest characteristics were speed and magic attack, but its speed still paled in comparison to Aixi's.

"Three-Tailed Snow Fox, Ice Shield!" Aixi pounced too quickly, and the Three-Tailed Snow Fox would inevitably find it hard to dodge, so Zhao Shuyi had to choose to defend passively.

Countless ice-blue energy gathered rapidly, turning into a shield made of ice.

Boom— Crack! Crack! Whoosh—

Accompanied by a harsh sound, Aixi's head sank violently, its sharp saber teeth crazily cutting into the Ice Shield, a huge mark spread across the Ice Shield, cutting it clean in two.

However, with the obstruction of the Ice Shield, the Three-Tailed Snow Fox took the opportunity to retreat, avoiding Aixi's pounce and not giving it a chance to cause damage.

Mental Lash!

It was also at this moment that Zhao Shuyi activated her Mental Power Secret Technique again, triggering the Mental Lash Secret Technique Imprint, which finally landed on Aixi.

Monster Tamers have buff-type Secret Techniques, and naturally, they also have debuff-type Secret Techniques, though most Monster Tamers prefer the former.

Mental Lash uses mental power to assault the target's mind; it does not weaken the target's strength, but it brings deep pressure to the target, affecting the target's performance.

This gave Aixi the feeling that someone was wielding a large hammer and constantly pounding its head; its body swayed violently, and its head felt a bit dizzy.

"Very good, take this chance and use Aurora Beam!"

Taking advantage of the moment Aixi was stalled, the Three-Tailed Snow Fox spat out colorful seven-colored light rings from its mouth, rushing toward Aixi at an extremely fast speed.

The power of Aurora Beam was average, but it excelled in its extremely fast attack speed; in the blink of an eye, it landed on Aixi.

Roar—

Aixi let out a muffled groan. Its fur defense was relatively strong, and coupled with its elemental advantage, the Aurora Beam did not cause it much damage.

Ice Storm!

Just as Aixi pounced again, the Three-Tailed Snow Fox seemed to transform into a turret, ice-blue radiance flickering on its furry tails, blowing gusts of violent Ice Storm toward Aixi.

Ice Storm can effectively reduce the opponent's speed and has a small probability of causing the opponent to fall into a frozen state. Once Aixi's speed drops or it falls into a frozen state, it will be very disadvantageous for it.

Wind Stealth!

At the critical moment, Aixi shook its head hard, forcing itself to concentrate. A flash of cyan light appeared on its body, and it seemed to turn into a Residual Shadow, moving out of the Ice Storm range first, then turning to continue pouncing toward the Three-Tailed Snow Fox.

Both are explosive-type skills, but compared to Lightning Flash, the explosive power bonus of Wind Stealth exceeds that of Lightning Flash.

"Too fast!" Giving Zhao Shuyi almost no time to think, Aixi quickly shortened the distance to the Three-Tailed Snow Fox and raised its right claw to strike at the Three-Tailed Snow Fox.

"Three-Tailed Snow Fox, Tail Whip!"

Under Zhao Shuyi's urgent voice, the Three-Tailed Snow Fox turned around quickly, exerting force to swing its three furry tails.

The Three-Tailed Snow Fox had another advantage, which was that it had three tails; any skill related to the tails would receive a significant bonus in power.

Boom—

In an instant, a sharp cold light flashed, and Aixi's right claw collided with the three tails.

Whoosh—

The sound of clothing tearing rang out. Aixi's claws were incredibly sharp, instantly tearing through the first tail. The Three-Tailed Snow Fox let out a pained cry, and the two tails behind chose to "besiege Wei to rescue Zhao," slamming fiercely onto Aixi.

Aixi staggered violently, looking as if it were about to fall to the ground. Suddenly, it had a flash of inspiration and took the opportunity to fall to the ground, but at the moment of falling, its tail flickered with a metallic luster, like a vertical steel whip. The Three-Tailed Snow Fox only had time to raise its right claw to block before it was fiercely struck by the Steel Tail.

Boom—

The sound of bones breaking rang out. The Three-Tailed Snow Fox could not help but let out a miserable scream, flying uncontrollably more than ten meters away. Its right claw was twisted violently, looking as if it could not be used for the time being.

"Very good, give it the final Fatal Fang!" Li Zhangsheng looked as if he were directing the world, revealing a victorious smile.
