Chapter 176 - 176: Sitting on the Mountain and Watching, Dragon and Tiger Fight
Mutated beasts needed food, and the total number of resources in the secret realm was limited, so there was a limit to the number of creatures in every secret realm.
Other than social mutated beasts like the [Shadow Demon Spider], most small secret realms usually only had two or less mutated beasts. Moreover, their territories were clearly separated and they basically did not interact much.
However, now, the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] and the [Silver Shadow Leopard] had actually appeared at the same time in this canyon less than a hundred meters away. This was extremely illogical.
Just as Wang Xiao was puzzled, there was suddenly a loud bang, and a huge pit was blasted open in the ground again.
At the same time, a silver light flashed past the side of the huge pit. It was so fast that it even plowed a deep grass mark on the dense vegetation!
“Could it be…
Seeing this, Wang Xiao suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Although the
[Silver Shadow LeoDardl did not have the skill to exDlode the ground. if it
kicked the ground hard the moment it increased its speed, it could indeed achieve a similar effect.
However, if that was the case, didn’t that mean that when Wang Xiao was preparing to summon the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] just now, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] was hiding near him?
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao immediately felt a little afraid. However, on second thought, he felt that something was wrong. If the Silver Shadow Leopard was beside him at that time, why did it not attack him?
As soon as this doubt appeared, Wang Xiao heard a muffled bang. He subconsciously lowered his head and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw that the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] had actually been sent flying out of the grass by something!
Wang Xiao was shocked. This [Decay Poison Corpse Python] was more than twenty meters long. It was not as terrifying as the [Ice Corrosion Python], but it was definitely not small. What could be so powerful?
Just as he was feeling puzzled, a silver light tore through the air and flickered.
It collided with the mountain wall and borrowed the force to return again. Then, it collided heavily with the body of the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] that had lost control!
With another muffled bang, the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] was forcefully knocked back by the silver light. It landed heavily and slid for more than ten meters. Countless flowers and plants were crushed into juice by its huge body, and there was a faint grass fragrance in the air.
“Oh no!”
Wang Xiao’s expression changed and he hurriedly activated the [Protection Ring] on his hand. As the golden defensive field was activated, the poisonous gas that floated up was also isolated.
As for the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon], it was too big and the defensive force field could not cover it. Wang Xiao jumped onto a protruding part of the mountain wall and recalled the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] back to his territory.
With the crisis temporarily resolved, Wang Xiao also figured out the cause and effect.
The target of the [Silver Shadow Leopard] was probably the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] from the beginning. The reason why he was affected by the increase in speed of the [Silver Shadow Leopard] was most likely because he was too unlucky and happened to stand near the [Silver Shadow Leopard].
At the same time, the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] on the ground also adjusted its posture.
The [Decay Poison Corpse Python] coiled its body together. Then, the colorful scales trembled together and clanged like iron leaves.
Seeing this scene, Wang Xiao immediately realized that the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] wanted to use its defense to attack. Those trembling scales were like countless blades. As long as the [Silver Shadow Leopard] dared to collide with them, it would at least lose a layer of skin even if it did not die!
“What will you do…”
Wang Xiao muttered as he searched the vegetation on the ground. He was already interested in this “dragon and tiger battle”.
In the battle between the [Volcanic Melting Lizard] and the [Ice Corrosion Python] , any casual attack from a platinum-quality exotic beast was world-destroying. Therefore, most of them relied on physical strength and skills to fight head-on.
However, the silver quality [Silver Shadow Leopard] and [Decay Poison Corpse Python] were different.
They did not have the strength to kill the other party in one strike, so they would use more techniques. To Wang Xiao, who was a beast tamer lord, this was definitely a rare and precious lesson!
Look at the battlefield.
The [Silver Shadow Leopard] seemed to know how powerful those scales were. After the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] was prepared, it did not rashly attack again. Instead, it kept moving around under the cover of the plants, as if it was searching for the flaw of the [Decay Poison Corpse Python].
However, the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] coiled its body together. Even its head was cunningly curled up. It could be said to have no blind spots.
The only two effective offensive routes were above and below the [Decay Poison Corpse Python]. However, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] could not fly or burrow into the ground. It was almost impossible for it to attack the other party.
However, even so, the Silver Shadow Leopard still kept wandering around. Clearly, it had not given up on this “prey”.
Seeing this, Wang Xiao became even more curious. He urgently wanted to know what other methods the Silver Shadow Leopard had.
In the blink of an eye, ten minutes passed. The two sides on the ground were still in a stalemate. However, the speed of the [Silver Shadow Leopard] was getting slower and slower, and the scales of the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] were also trembling much slower. It seemed that the stamina of both sides was already starting to collapse.
Wang Xiao, who was overlooking the entire situation, immediately perked up when he saw this. He knew that the patience of these two mutated beasts had already reached the critical point. It was up to them to decide whether to fight or give up!
As expected!
Three seconds later, a silver light suddenly jumped out of the grass. However, its target was not the [Decay Poison Corpse Python], but the mountain wall beside it!
Just as Wang Xiao thought that the [Silver Shadow Leopard] was about to give up, the silver light suddenly stopped at a height of 30 meters. Then, a bright claw mark slashed heavily onto the moun tain wall!
Clang!
With a crisp sound, the mountain wall that was already filled with cracks shattered with a bang. Stones of all sizes fell like rain, and under the rubble was the coiled position of the [Decay Poison Corpse Python]!
Sensing that something was wrong, the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] immediately wanted to dodge. However, it did not expect that after lying down for a long time and nervously preparing for battle, its body would be extremely stiff. Before its body could completely open, it was smashed by the falling rubble!
At the same time, the silver light landed on the ground and disappeared.
Seeing this, Wang Xiao could not help but smile. Although these gravel were not enough to kill the [Decay Poison Corpse Python], it had already lost this battle.
With a muffled bang, the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] easily escaped. However, to its surprise, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] had been waiting for this moment!
Swoosh—
A silver light flashed, and a dazzling claw mark slashed out.
The [Decay Poison Corpse Python]’s body was still charging forward, but its huge head had already flown into the air!
“Beautiful!”
Wang Xiao’s eyes lit up as he slapped his thigh and thought to himself that he had really not come to this secret realm for nothing today!
In the battle just now, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] first wandered around, creating nervousness for the [Decay Poison Corpse Python].
When the other party’s stamina was exhausted, it used the environment to attack. Then, it waited for the Decay Poison Corpse Python to escape in a panic and decisively attacked!
The entire operation was so smooth that it could be written in the textbook of the beast tamer lord!
Just as Wang Xiao was secretly excited, a few shiny things suddenly fell out of the head of the [Decay Poison Corpse Python].
Wang Xiao’s pupils suddenly constricted.. “[Breakthrough Stones]!”
