The violent recoil force generated from the collision forcefully blasted the hundred-thousand-year soul beast more than ten meters away…
As for the Ghost Vine, it still maintained an arc shape, without the slightest change due to the attack!
Clearly, the only possible explanation was a vast disparity in strength between the two!
Xu Sheng glanced at the soul beast opposite him that was looking at him with a wary gaze and chuckled lightly, "To think that I would encounter a hundred-thousand-year soul beast on the primary Spirit Ascension Platform."
If it weren't for me being nearby, these three little ones would have definitely been ruthlessly eliminated!
Immediately after, with a thought from him, the Ghost Vine, which resembled a flower bud, began to twist rapidly, slowly revealing the situation inside…
The three Class Zero students were still waiting with their eyes closed…
But realizing that the anticipated pain hadn't come, they opened their eyes in confusion…
When they clearly saw Xu Sheng blocking their way, their eyes widened in shock…
Xu Xiaoyan said with a delighted face, "Xu… Teacher Xu? How come you're here??"
Could it be that, when I was silently invoking Teacher Xu in my mind, it actually came true?
Zhang Yangzi asked in a puzzled tone, "Hiss… I remember that the primary Spirit Ascension Platform can't be used by Soul Masters with Four Rings or more, right? How did Teacher Xu get in?"
If Soul Masters with Four Rings and above can't enter, then who is Teacher Xu, who has reached the six rings soul power rank right before our eyes?
A product of their imagination? Or the real Teacher Xu?
Wang Jinxi breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness you arrived in time, Teacher Xu, or else today we would have had to experience the taste of being shattered to pieces!"
Xu Sheng said softly, "You all are too careless, why did you provoke a hundred-thousand-year soul beast?"
The strength a hundred-thousand-year soul beast possesses is still an unattainable existence for them!
Upon hearing this, Wang Jinxi replied with some embarrassment, "Cough cough… Teacher, at that time I thought it was just a centennial soul beast, I figured we could just take care of it."
Xu Xiaoyan nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes! That's right, the aura of this soul beast was initially that of just a centennial, but once we got closer, both its size and aura increased by hundreds of times!"
At that moment, they were nearly scared to death, but fortunately, Xu Sheng arrived just in time, which was a stroke of luck amid misfortune!
Zhang Yangzi analyzed, "That hundred-thousand-year soul beast must possess the ability to hide its aura and shrink its body!"
Of course, it must also possess some degree of spiritual intelligence, otherwise how could it lure them closer before suddenly attacking?
Xu Sheng nodded to show he understood, "Is that so?"
Well, in that case, it wasn't really their fault…
While he was musing, Wang Jinxi seemed to have seen something and exclaimed, "Teacher Xu, be careful behind you, the hundred-thousand-year soul beast is coming again!"
Hearing his words, Xu Sheng glanced at the soul beast that was charging towards him!
All one could see was it frantically stamping its limbs, making "bang bang bang~~~" loud noises…
Soon after, the entire visible ground was torn apart by a bizarre force, and the rupture continued to spread forward…
Witnessing this scene, Xu Sheng's eyes narrowed, and he leapt into the air with a calm expression, while not forgetting to use the Ghost Vine to bind Wang Jinxi and the others, pulling them into the sky as well…
"Boom boom boom," just as they reached mid-air, the ground where they stood seconds before collapsed…
Taking advantage of this interval, the first black soul ring beneath Xu Sheng's feet suddenly lit up!
First Soul Skill, Nether Flame!!
Countless Netherworld Ghostvine strands continuously gathered grey-white energy, forming a terrifying fireball a hundred meters in size…
The emanating chilly aura involuntarily made one's body tremble with cold…
And the hundred-thousand-year soul beast, upon witnessing the terrifying scene before it, a deep fear surfaced within its blood-red eyes...
It seemed that it hadn't anticipated provoking such a formidable Soul Master!
Immediately, without any hesitation, it started to sprint towards the rear, seeking to escape from this place...
But, it was too late. The massive grey-white Fireball, like doomsday descending, completely enveloped the area where the hundred-thousand-year soul beast was, slowly plummeting down...
When it crashed into the ground, the power contained within the Fireball was suddenly unleashed...
In the blink of an eye, it had obliterated the entire space, every inch flashing with a blinding white glow...
The soul beast, also within the range of the attack, found its massive body covered in dense, grey-white flames, continuously scorching its soul...
Unable to bear the pain, it threw back its head and let out a cry of utter despair...
"Roar, roar, roar~~~"
...
As for Long Hengxu and Wei Xiaofeng, who were outside, they were initially worried that Wang Jinxi and his two companions would be eliminated by this hundred-thousand-year soul beast. But, upon seeing Teacher Xu appear on the soul guidance screen, they were dumbfounded...
Long Hengxu exclaimed in shock, "Is that Teacher Xu??? How could he be in this Virtual Space??"
If he remembered correctly, shouldn't he be right beside them, fallen into a deep sleep?
Wei Xiaofeng also displayed an incredulous look, rubbing his eyes vigorously, and muttered, "Did my eyes just deceive me? Did I actually see Teacher Xu on the soul guidance screen?"
With that thought, the two of them looked towards Teacher Xu beside them in perfect unison...
When they saw that he was still sleeping, Long Hengxu and Wei Xiaofeng exchanged a glance, vaguely perceiving the terror in each other's eyes!
Isn't Teacher Xu sleeping here?
Then who is that inside?
Could it be... a virtual character created by the Spirit Ascension Platform?
However, it wasn't just them. The staff responsible for the Spirit Ascension Platform also pushed up their glasses and said blankly, "No way? Is there a problem with the Virtual Space? Why can an East Sea Academy teacher enter it?"
No such thing had ever occurred on the Spirit Ascension Platform!
Although it was virtual, everything inside needed to be precisely calculated and analyzed. It couldn't just appear out of nowhere!
This bizarre situation had to be reported to headquarters after these students finished!
...
Meanwhile, Tang Wulin, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground meditating, opened his light blue eyes in bewilderment upon hearing the loud rumbling noises around him, wondering, "Hm?"
Just then, two familiar voices rang out...
"Tang Wulin, don't tell me you've been sitting here meditating ever since you entered the Spirit Ascension Platform?"
"It's just like you, so bold to actually fall asleep here."
Tang Wulin's body suddenly jolted, and with lingering fear he said, "Gu Yue, Xie Xie? When did you guys get here?"
Luckily it was them; if it had been a soul beast, wouldn't he have been done for?
But that epiphany just now was simply too wondrous, making him immerse himself completely, relaxing his vigilance towards everything around him!
He hadn't even noticed Gu Yue and Xie Xie approaching!
