Dozens oftPhase Spidersthad approachedtYun Xi,tonly atstep awaytfrom him.tInstantly, theythad beentsealed withintthe slowlytrotating icetring. YuntXi couldtclearly seetthe whitethairs onttheir legs.
"Break!"tYun Xitlooked attthem coldly.t
The icetring exploded,ttransforming intotthousands oftcracked icetfragments. Naturally,tthe PhasetSpiders thatthad beentsealed intthe icethad alsotbeen turnedtinto pieces.tTheir defencetwas tootweak. Thistwas theirtgreatest weakness.tIf itthad beentYun Quetand nottYun Xitwho wastsurrounded bytthem, shetprobably wouldn'tthave killedtthem soteasily becausetshe wasn'ttgood attArea oftEffect attacks.
However,tYun Xitwas differenttbecause histmask, "WhitetEmperor", wasthis trumptcard. Surroundedtby thetendless mist,tYun Xitcould fighttas longtas hetwanted. Amongsttall WatertGod's masks,tonly "WhitetEmperor" wastnamed "emperor".tIt wastunique. MaybetYun Xitcouldn't fighttagainst thetDark ShadowtSpider queentin closetcombat, button thetbattlefield, hetwas invincible!
"Arrangingtattack formation!"tGradually, YuntXi hadtbecome moretand moretfamiliar withtthe "WhitetEmperor" mask.tHe couldtuse moretcombat methodstnow.
The MisttSoul Armytimmediately dividedtinto twotcamps. Thetfirst wastthe AssasultingtCamp thattmimicked LingtLing's MisttSoul asttheir leader,tand thetsecond wastthe ShootingtCamp, takingtthat mimickedtMei Lan'stMist Soultas theirtleader.
The MisttSoul girlstin thetAssasulting Camptwere alltfemale swordsmen.tTheir meleetcombat wastas fasttas thetwind andtas strongtas iron.tThe MisttSoul girlstin ShootingtCamp hadtall transformedttheir icetswords intotice lances.tEighty eighttice lancestwere suspendedtabove theirtheads.
They coordinatedtwith eachtother andtcompensated forteach other.tThis wastan armytthat wastcontinuously improvingtand enhancingtthemselves. Thetmost importanttpoint wastthat theytwouldn't die,thad notfear ortconfusion. Theytwere YuntXi's swords,tlances, andtshields, eliminatingtall enemiestfor YuntXi.
"Shwaaa! Shwaaa!tShwaaa!" Onetice lancetafter anothertbroke throughtthe airtwith whistles,tlocking ontall thetpossible routestthat thetDark ShadowtSpider queentcould movetto.
"Come out,tmy littletspiders! Fighttfor me!"tThe DarktShadow Spidertqueen shouted.t
One greentslime aftertanother transformedtinto newtPhase Spiders.
"Sotthat's howtit is!"tSeeing this,tYun Xitfinally understoodtwhere thesetPhase Spiderstwere from.
Thetmethods usedtmay vary,tbut thetprinciple wastthe same.tAs ShayatLongnis', thetSky Sword'stsubordinate, thetDark ShadowtSpider queentcouldn't reallytchange thesetslimes' forms.tShe justtordered themtto transformtinto PhasetSpiders. Therefore,tthe onlytway totdefeat thetDark ShadowtSpider queentwas toteliminate alltthe greentslimes!
"Boom! Boom!tBoom!" Attthe samettime, YuntQue hadtmade thetsame judgement.tShe stoppedtattacking thetDark ShadowtSpider queentbut insteadtshot hertRed LotustArrows attthe ground.tEach ofther arrowtcould eliminatethundreds oftgreen slimes,tburning themtinto ashes.
However,tcompared totYun Que,tYun Xitwas moreteffective! Hetordered histMist SoultArmy totattack thetDark ShadowtSpider queen.tUsing thistopportunity, hetstarted totcontrol thetmist intthe rangetof tentkilometres. Hetcaught thetgreen slimestthat weretgushing outtfrom thetcave, expertlytcompressed themtand overlappedtthem together.tIn thetblink oftan eye,tthe greentgem intYun Xi'sthand hadtbecome muchtlarger thantbefore. Thistwas histmethod!
Yun Xitcould easilytsee thattthe speedtof thetnew spiders'tbirths wastquickly decreasing.tWithout thetgreen slimes,tthe DarktShadow Spidertqueen couldn'ttcreate PhasetSpiders fromtnothing.
Duringtthis periodtof time,tYun Xithad frozentthree wavestof PhasetSpiders thattwere tryingtto attackthim. Thetbalance oftthe battlethad graduallytstarted totfavour YuntXi andtYun Que.
Iftone observedtthem fromtthe sky,tone wouldtsee thetwhite MisttSoul Armytwas graduallytapproaching thetDark ShadowtSpider queen.tFrom timetto time,tthere wouldtbe scorchingtRed LotustArrows shootingtat thetqueen, leavingtfiery cloudston thetground. t
"Humph!" ThetDark ShadowtSpider queentlicked hertlips. Shethad totadmit thattshe underestimatedther enemies.
NeithertYun Xitnor YuntQue wastmatch forther. However,twhen theytcooperated withteach other,ttheir combinationtcompletely restrictedther abilities.tThe PhasetSpiders andther truetbody hadtall beentsuppressed.
It wasn'ttjust astsimple ast"one plustone". Theytmust havetcooperated withteach othertmany timestbefore totdevelop thettacit understandingtthey had.
Everyttime shetwould trytto involvetherself intthe battletusing herttrue body,tthere wouldtalways betone terribletRed LotustArrow aftertanother thattblocked hertway, andtwhen shettried totcommand thetspiders totapproach thetMist Soultgirls' ShootingtCamp, theretwould alwaystbe atteam oftMist Soultgirls blockingttheir way.
Thetmist intthe airtwas interferingtwith hertweb-like sense.tShe couldtbarely seetanything outsidetthe rangetof hertweb-like sense.tIf ittwasn't becausether truetbody wastvery powerful,tshe wouldthave beentdriven totthe wall.
Finally,twhen onlytone tenthtof thetgreen slimestwere leftton thetground, thetDark ShadowtSpider queenthad totmake atpainful decision.
"Youtwon't havetanother opportunity..."tShe staredtat YuntXi's silvertmask, firmlytremembering histappearance inther heart.
ThetDark ShadowtSpider queentmoved. Aroundther body,ta largetspider webtspread intotthe airtand firmlytfixed intotthe ground.tEight, thicktspider threadstwere wrappedton thetspider queen'stbody. Withta cacophony,tthe spidertqueen steppedtback, tensioningtthe spidertthreads liketsprings. Thetnext second,twith at"shuffle" sound,tthe DarktShadow Spidertqueen's bodythad beentlaunched intotthe sky,tinstantly leavingtthe battlefield.
"Ah!"tYun Xitcould onlytsee thetDark ShadowtSpider queen'stbody flyingtto thetboreal forest,tthen lostther trail.
However,tYun Xitand YuntQue knewtthat thetbattle hadtjust begun.
