Qian Mo's expression was rarely solemn; the Huo Yuhao before him was truly tricky, because the cheat this guy had on him was indeed a bit big.
But, the cheat I have on me is not small either!
The Demon Eye Demon Lord dissipated, the Seven Kill Sword disappeared from his hand, Qian Mo's eyes turned golden, an Eight-Winged Seraph bloomed behind him, and two thousand-year spirit rings rose from under his feet.
As Qian Mo's spirit power level increased, the potential within the Six-Winged Seraphim Spirit was gradually unleashed.
Thus, when Qian Mo broke through level twenty, the Six-Winged Seraphim Spirit also broke through with him, naturally becoming the Eight-Winged Seraph Martial Soul.
"Twin spirits, as expected, as the young master of the Sacred Angel Family, how could Qian Mo not have the Angel Martial Soul!" Ya Li said.
At the same time, the level of importance she placed on Qian Mo rose another layer in her heart.
Qian Mo ascended into the air, using air superiority to control the initiative, holding the Holy Cross Sword and attacking Huo Yuhao from multiple directions, fighting a guerrilla war with him.
Huo Yuhao covered the surface of his body with a layer of ice crystals for defense, the Sacred Flame on Qian Mo's Holy Cross Sword spread over Huo Yuhao's body, and the ultimate fire and ultimate ice were engaged in a dance of ice and fire.
Although the ultimate ice and ultimate fire were in a stalemate, the situation on the field was still unfavorable for Huo Yuhao; he had to find a way to bring Qian Mo down.
So Huo Yuhao switched back to the Spirit Eyes, the third spirit ring on Huo Yuhao's body suddenly lit up, and a circle of pure white light halo also enveloped Qian Mo at this moment, the Light of Weakness, causing the attacker's speed, ability, etc., to drop significantly, and leaving them extremely weak.
The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion could not attack in the air, but mental attack could ignore terrain.
But this time the situation was a little different; a small golden halo lit up behind Qian Mo's head.
The small halo trembled slightly, and the Light of Weakness suddenly disintegrated, vanishing into nothingness.
"This is a Spirit Bone!" Ya Li widened her eyes in surprise.
Because Spirit Beasts were on the verge of extinction, Spirit Bones were extremely rare in this era; even she had only seen a few, she never expected Qian Mo to have a Spirit Bone on him at such a young age.
What Qian Mo had just used was the Angel Skull Spirit Bone skill from the Angel Set: Angel Concentration.
Attaches an Angel Halo, increasing his own mental force by thirty percent, which can help Qian Mo resist mental attacks.
When used under the Eight-Winged Seraph Martial Soul possession, the effect is better.
Under the enhancement of the Angel Halo, Huo Yuhao's advantage in mental attack was completely gone.
Huo Yuhao's expression changed, before he could come up with a countermeasure, Qian Mo's eight wings unfolded behind him, he raised the Holy Cross Sword high, gathered sacred energy on the sword body, concentrated Sacred Flame on the sword edge, and unleashed a Holy Cross Slash that consumed more than half of Qian Mo's power, descending from the Sky with such speed that it was impossible to escape its attack range.
"Boom!"
An emerald green radiance instantly bloomed from Huo Yuhao's body, and faintly, the silhouette of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion flashed and disappeared behind him.
Huo Yuhao punched the ground, and a layer of ice-jade colored halo instantly spread outwards, causing the surrounding ground to immediately form crystalline ice flowers.
The descending Holy Cross Slash, upon contacting the ice-jade colored halo, had its Sacred Flame extinguished, and actually formed a layer of frost, freezing it in mid-air; Huo Yuhao finally used Ice Emperor's Claw to shatter the Holy Cross Slash with a punch.
Qian Mo frowned and looked at the Holy Cross Slash that had shattered all over the ground, murmuring, "Everfrost Domain!"
A Domain type Spirit Ability from the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion torso bone, causing the area around the body to rapidly freeze, capable of freezing a thousand li.
It was precisely by relying on this Domain type Spirit Ability that Huo Yuhao blocked the Holy Cross Slash.
Domain type Spirit Abilities are very strong, but for the level thirty-five Huo Yuhao, the consumption was too great.
Now he himself was like someone hit by a weakening Spirit Ability, in a state of double weakness of mental force and spirit power.
"This is a good opportunity!" Qian Mo brandished the Holy Cross Sword, his eight wings flapped, and he shot towards Huo Yuhao like an arrow from a bowstring.
Huo Yuhao switched to the Spirit Eyes, activating mental detection, Qian Mo's every move was in his eyes.
Perfectly judging Qian Mo's next landing spot, Huo Yuhao twisted his body to the extreme, and the Holy Cross Sword grazed past his cheek, leaving a small bloody mark.
Huo Yuhao's eyes focused, staring intently at the nearby Qian Mo, five dark golden sharp claws popped out from his right hand, his right foot stood firm to stabilize his posture, he exerted force from his waist, and swung the Dark Golden Terror Claw on his right palm towards Qian Mo.
Instantly, a strong dark golden light burst forth, and the powerful Dark Golden Terror Claw instantly turned into a three-meter long dark golden claw shadow in the air, striking towards Qian Mo.
Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear right palm bone, I forgot about this!
Qian Mo was startled in his heart, and the second thousand-year spirit ring on his body instantly bloomed with brilliant light.
"Bang!"
Huo Yuhao, who was sent staggering back by the powerful impact, stumbled and stood firm, gasping for breath as he watched the rolling thick smoke caused by the collision of the two powerful energies.
The thick smoke gradually dispersed, revealing the scene behind it: Qian Mo leaning on the Holy Cross Sword, kneeling on one knee, his eight wings, which had become larger and longer, closed in front of him, protecting him.
Countless dazzling and brilliant lights flowed across the eight wings in various strange trajectories, finally converging where the wings closed, forming a golden cross shield.
After taking a blow from the Dark Golden Terror Claw head-on, there was only a shallow claw mark on the cross shield; most of the dark golden claw light was dissolved by the purifying force on the shield the moment it touched it.
Qian Mo was also gasping for breath, his face clearly a little pale; if it weren't for his second Spirit Ability, the Holy Cross Shield, such a powerful defensive Spirit Ability supporting him, he might have fallen at this last moment!
The cross shield dissipated, Qian Mo put away his Eight-Winged Seraph Martial Soul, and as Huo Yuhao shakily just raised his hand, a sharp sword pierced through his chest from behind him.
Looking back, it was a Seven Kill Swordsman puppet.
Looking at Qian Mo again, he had somehow switched to the Divinity Mask.
Huo Yuhao's consumption was truly too severe, so much so that he didn't notice someone had silently crept up behind him.
"Heroic Spirit Stage Third Stage, Passed!"
Ya Li and the other two were speechless for a long time after seeing this scene, not only shocked that he passed the third stage, but also horrified that his opponent was Huo Yuhao, yet he still defeated him.
"Incredible, incredible, the younger generation is formidable!" Zhuo Shi stroked his beard and sighed.
"Heroic Spirit Stage Combat Assessment, Fourth Stage, opponent's level raised to forty-one!"
As the electronic female voice fell, a handsome young man with an elegant demeanor appeared before Qian Mo.
Who is this person?
A doubt arose in Qian Mo's heart.
The three examiners outside were all startled when they saw Qian Mo's challenger, and then they looked towards Ya Li in unison.
The handsome young man casually beckoned, and a long spear emitting a white incandescent radiance throughout its body landed in his hand, with four spirit rings circling around it.
The spear's body seemed almost transparent, with a spearhead only at one end, but the spearhead was exceptionally long, almost occupying close to one-third of its length.
Light flames flickered on its sharp edge.
At the point where the spearhead connected to the shaft below, the two ancient and simple characters 'Qingtian' were engraved upon it.
