Chapter 78: Senior Sister Yanran, Together We're Invincible!
As soon as the Fire Spirit Demon Lotus was unleashed, it spun rapidly toward the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider.
Wang Yanran watched the Fire Spirit Demon Lotus and the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider nervously.
[I can absorb flames for my own use. After absorbing the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider's demonic fire spirit energy, I can condense a Fire Spirit Demon Lotus with power equivalent to that of the spider itself. Theoretically, even if it is a divine-level creature, it should die from this attack.]
[But theory is just theory. If this strike doesn't kill it, my remaining skills definitely won't be able to either!]
Lin Tianming, hearing Wang Yanran's thoughts, couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Wang Yanran's ability to absorb flames and use them with the same power as their original wielder? This means that the Fire Spirit Demon Lotus she condensed has the might of a divine domain skill?
This unique ability is similar to his own Divine Hand, which can perfectly replicate the power of super-level forbidden spells.
However, compared to his Divine Hand, Wang Yanran's ability only works against fire-attribute enemies, making it less versatile.
Since the Fire Spirit Demon Lotus theoretically has the potential to kill the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider, then...
A method to help Wang Yanran realize this theoretical possibility flashed through Lin Tianming's mind, and he immediately took action.
While the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider focused all its attention on defending against Wang Yanran's Fire Spirit Demon Lotus, Lin Tianming's body radiated with brilliant golden spiritual energy.
Spiritual Fire Spark!
The boiling spiritual fire spark pierced through the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider's physical defenses, directly attacking its soul.
For a moment, the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider, whose attention was entirely on Wang Yanran's Fire Spirit Demon Lotus, was distracted by the pain of the spiritual fire spark.
As its concentration broke, the defensive shield it had erected began to show signs of collapse.
Seeing this, the previously anxious Wang Yanran couldn't help but show a hint of joy.
As long as the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider doesn't defend itself, she has confidence that the Fire Spirit Demon Lotus can kill it!
At the same time, she couldn't help but glance at Lin Tianming.
[This damn rogue... he does have good timing.]
[His soul attack skill didn't seem this powerful when he fought Feng Lan, but now it's like a boiling soul flame, possibly because it only works like this against demonic creatures...]
[It must be a special soul force that counters demonic creatures, unleashing far greater power when fighting them. With his skill helping me, maybe we really can kill this divine-level creature!]
Hearing Wang Yanran's thoughts, Lin Tianming smiled smugly at her: "Senior Sister Yanran, don't I look cool?"
[Scoundrel! Don't think I've forgotten how you sullied my honor. This time... this time we'll just cooperate temporarily!]
Quickly averting her gaze to avoid being distracted by Lin Tianming, Wang Yanran focused back on the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider.
Just when she thought her Fire Spirit Demon Lotus would surely kill the spider, it quickly recovered its composure and reformed a solid defensive shield.
[Damn! It recovered so fast?]
Wang Yanran's face, which had just shown hope, was once again overshadowed.
Spiritual Energy Storm!
Seeing the spider regain its clarity, Lin Tianming immediately unleashed a more powerful Spiritual Energy Storm.
The raging spiritual energy ascended like a tornado, attacking the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider once more.
"A mere level sixteen human ant, don't think you can do whatever you want just because your soul force restrains me!"
The Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider screeched angrily, and a ghostly fire shadow, larger than the previous one, slowly appeared, intercepting Lin Tianming's Spiritual Energy Storm.
At the cost of most of its soul defense, it absorbed all the power of the spiritual energy ascension.
"I admit you two tiny human ants have the power to hurt me, a divine-level creature. But unfortunately, even working together, you won't defeat me. Once I survive this fire lotus, you will die! Hahaha!"
Having successfully blocked Lin Tianming's more powerful spiritual energy skill, the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider laughed maniacally as the Fire Spirit Demon Lotus descended.
[Even if the Fire Spirit Demon Lotus can penetrate its shield, it will likely lose much of its power and fail to kill it!]
[Am I, the reborn Phoenix Flame Goddess, really going to fall here so soon in this life?]
"Don't give up, Senior Sister Yanran, I have one more move!"
Lin Tianming's shout reached the nearly hopeless Wang Yanran, making her instinctively look at him.
She saw Lin Tianming still surrounded by radiant spiritual ascension light, his eyes emitting a terrifying spiritual force.
Soul Capture!
There was no visually dramatic display of spiritual energy, but the ghostly fire shadow and physical defensive shield of the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider disintegrated in an instant.
The spider, which had been laughing eerily, suddenly fell silent and froze in place.
Though she didn't know what soul skill Lin Tianming had used, seeing the spider abandon all defenses and freeze, Wang Yanran's desperate face once again showed a hint of joy.
"As long as the Fire Spirit Demon Lotus hits the defenseless Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider, it will surely die from its own power!"
Boom!
With Lin Tianming's help, the Fire Spirit Demon Lotus landed perfectly on the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider without encountering any defense.
As expected, the terrifying power mercilessly burned the spider's huge body.
As the spider's monstrous body was reduced to ashes by the blooming Fire Spirit Demon Lotus, the huge stone hanging in Wang Yanran's heart finally settled.
"It's... finally over. Thank goodness, it was close... Phew!"
Having forcibly used a level fifty-five skill against a divine-level creature, Wang Yanran was now exhausted.
She rubbed her forehead, barely able to stand on her own.
Lin Tianming returned to her side and gave her a firm hug.
"Senior Sister Yanran, your move combined with my soul attack is invincible!"
[This... this rogue actually hugged me?]
[Fine... I'll let it go this time since he saved me...]
Wang Yanran symbolically resisted Lin Tianming's embrace before letting him hold her.
"Strange... Senior Sister Yanran, even after killing the creature, why can't we leave this spider web lair?"
Feeling too tired to move, Wang Yanran's heart skipped a beat at Lin Tianming's question.
As if recalling something important she had overlooked, Wang Yanran immediately warned Lin Tianming: "The... the Ghost-Faced Fire Spirit Spider isn't dead!"
