Chapter 49: Battle
Tang Yin saw these attacks and was a little surprised.
'A winged snake, huh...' he thought. He hadn't seen the attacking beast, but he could guess what kind of beast it was from the attacks.
Tang Yin then looked at Huang Feifei and smiled.
'Let's see how it will respond...' He thought.
He wasn't going to help her in her battle unless it was very dangerous, and in that case, he would just help her run.
Just before the attack of the spirit beast hit her, Huang Feifei turned around quickly and moved her right hand which held her scepter forward forcefully and immediately, the array which was in the shape of a broken ring that was coiled on her arm, moved forward all over her arm and then all over the body of her scepter, and, the moment it reached the tip of it, it manifested in front of the scepter, as it became hoop-shaped and shone brightly in a deep yellow color.
Just then, the attack of the beast hit that place hard.
Huang Feifei frowned slightly but resisted the attack strongly, and as soon as she finished resisting, although she still did not visualize the beast attacking her, she circled her feet to the right while swinging the scepter in her right arm like a bat and hit the hoop-shaped array in front of her hard.
This caused the array to glow even brighter and fired a strong air attack in the direction where the previous attack came from.
This attack crossed the place like a huge blade made of air and soon hit several trees in the vicinity hard. Some were broken by the impact, and then the spirit beast came into view.
Tang Yin smiled when he saw her attack like this.
'She has become more versatile with her attacks using the materialized Spiritual Bone.' Tang Yin thought with a smile.
The array in front of Huang Feifei is her materialized Spiritual Bone. These can be materialized in different ways once you obtain them.
For example, you can use them as a matrix on your chest to resist a strong enemy attack that you can't avoid. You can use them as a shield the way Huang Feifei used them or even to attack as she did.
Once you get it, the Spiritual Bone can practically become a materialization of your spiritual power and can be used in many ways.
That's why the more you have, the better.
You can become an impregnable fortress by using them to strengthen your muscles completely or just to protect your vital areas.
How you can use it is entirely up to you.
At least, that is Tang Yin's concept.
Unfortunately, Huang Feifei doesn't know how to use it like that.
Still, it's enough for now.
'...Hm, 1,700 years, huh... She shouldn't have any problems if she synthesizes that spiritual beast, since she's built a good foundation, but... Will she have the guts?' Tang Yin thought as he looked at the black-on-white winged snake and then looked at Huang Feifei.
'Let's see your decision, Feifei.' He thought with a smile and focused on looking at her.
She would have trouble this time because the winged snake is a dangerous and annoying beast. Plus, it's winged, so it can fly.
'Though well, first, you should find a way to knock it off its flight or you won't be able to fight.' He thought.
Huang Feifei below noticed the snake and frowned slightly.
Still, through her mind did not pass the probability of leaving. In fact, she quickly summoned her materialized Spiritual Bone in front of her.
'Tang Yin once told me that winged snakes serve me quite well, but that I must find a way to knock them off their flight if I want to do anything... Makes sense, that's as far as my attack goes.' She thought with a frown as she looked at the beast that was staring at her.
Already been fixed by this beast, so it was her turn to fight.
After that, she quickly looked at her surroundings, trying to formulate a strategy for a good fight.
After looking at her surroundings, she nodded her head.
She had something planned.
Just like that, Huang Feifei started to rush forward with her spirit scepter and quickly struck her materialized spiritual bone three times with her scepter, creating three different attacks that flew out toward the spiritual beast.
After doing this, Huang Feifei quickly moved her spirit bone with her mind, which was an ability that came within that cultivation technique Tang Yin had taught her earlier.
After moving it, she placed it right in the center of her scepter and ran a little faster, but then jumped before her attacks hit their target, and having gotten close to the winged snake, moved her scepter to hit the ground hard.
This created a huge wave of air that spread through different places and hit her previous attacks hard pushing them further towards their target, the winged snake.
And because the scepter was fine-tipped from the bottom, it stuck firmly into the ground, which brought a smile to Huang Feifei's face. She then moved a little away from her scepter and quickly launched a flying kick toward the scepter, hitting right where the broken ring-shaped array was.
--"First Spiritual Bone Skill, Spiritual Claw of the Royal Scepter." She said, and a strong falcon claw made of air immediately materialized in front of her, using the spiritual energy drained by the spiritual bone to form itself and flew out with great force towards the winged snake that was taken completely by surprise.
It never crossed his mind that this human would attack with her spiritual ability from the start and do so in such a strange yet effective way.
In fact, even Tang Yin was surprised.
'Shit, did I underestimate her? It's a very good initial attack strategy.' He thought to himself in amazement.
This is something he taught her.
He told her that the spiritual bone is the most versatile thing there is in this world and can be used in many ways. So, if at some point, she devises a strategy of a quick attack, she should make it around her spiritual bone and, if possible, her spiritual ability or in a way that it can be used in the attack.
During that time, he gave her several examples, this was one of them.
But he never thought that she would judge everything so quickly and choose to use this strategy to initiate!
He didn't know if she did it because it was the first thing that crossed her mind, but he was sure that this was the best strategy she had to initiate at this point.
And, in fact, she knew it. Remembering the moment Tang Yin told her this, she immediately thought that this was the best strategy because it was the easiest way to make this beast decide to fight on the ground.
But, as a countermeasure, she had prepared something else.
