Chapter 12: Poor Fighting Skills and AwarenessHe didn't even know who wanted to kill him. The Upper Three Sects? Or Spirit Hall?Ye Xunfeng wasn't walking very fast, as if he hadn't noticed anything at all, walking step by step out of the city like he was taking a stroll, occasionally pausing to sense whether the two auras behind him were still there.Hm, they were following quite closely.A flash of cold light crossed Ye Xunfeng's eyes. In fact, he could almost be certain they were people from Spirit Hall.After all, only Spirit Hall could send two Titled Douluo to kill someone with whom they had no enmity.And only that bastard Qian Xunji could do such a thing.Not long after Ye Xunfeng walked out of the city, a piercing chill suddenly surged up his back, as if a sharp sword was about to attack him.Without even thinking, he twisted his waist and dodged sideways urgently, while simultaneously summoning the Qingtian Spear with a backhand. The pristine white spear shaft blocked horizontally in front of him, and with a "clang," he forcefully blocked the incoming Snake Lance, the impact numbing his palms slightly.Raising his eyes to look, the hairs on the back of Ye Xunfeng's neck instantly stood on end.That Snake Lance had actually transformed into a cyan-purple snake head as thick as a bowl, with its fangs turned outward and its forked tongue darting out rapidly, rushing over to bite him again amidst a foul wind.Taking advantage of the recoil from the clash of the spear shafts, he deliberately discharged the force under his feet and flew backward. In mid-air, eight glistening white Angel Wings suddenly unfolded behind his back.Just flapping them gently twice, he stabilized his posture with that momentum and landed steadily on the open ground several zhang away.He lowered his eyes to glance at the fading wings behind him, a dark gleam flashing in the depths of his eyes.With the speed of the Prayer Angel Spirit, he could leave whenever he wanted, but what he lacked most right now was solid, practical combat experience. The two Titled Douluo before him happened to be the best sparring partners.Just as the thought fell, a fierce light instantly condensed in Ye Xunfeng's eyes, and the pristine white Qingtian Spear stood firmly in his palm, its shaft shimmering with a chilling dark light.Beneath his feet, two black and five red—seven spirit rings lit up one after another.That Heaven-Defying configuration exuded an intimidating pressure."How is that possible?" Snake Lance Douluo blurted out.Ye Xunfeng raised his hand to point the Qingtian Spear slightly diagonally, the spear tip aimed at Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo not far away.The spear wind swept past, kicking up dust on the ground as Battle Intent surged."What a Genius! Too bad who asked you to impersonate a member of the Angel Clan. You deserve to die!" Snake Lance Douluo sneered and said.Ye Xunfeng, on the other hand, was full of confusion.What?Impersonating an Angel Clan member?Me?Ye Xunfeng's spear tip sank, and the first spirit ring beneath his feet suddenly lit up. The spear edge surged several times over, sweeping out with a roaring wave of Qi, precisely Sweeping Through Armies!The pale white spear image went straight for Snake Lance Douluo. Seeing this, She Long instantly activated his True Spirit Body.The cyan-purple double-headed giant snake form appeared in the world, and the Snake Lance turned into a snake body, fiercely entangling towards the spear image.The snake's head opened its giant maw to spew purple poison, but it was shaken back repeatedly by the spear wind, and a few fine cracks burst out on its snake scales.Seeing Ye Xunfeng's monstrous spirit ring, Porcupinefish Douluo didn't dare let Snake Lance Douluo fight alone either, activating his Seventh Spirit Skill simultaneously.The giant Porcupinefish True Body filled the air, with every purple thorn on its body standing erect.His Fourth Spirit Skill, Thorn Storm, directly activated. Overwhelmingly dense purple toxic spikes shot toward Ye Xunfeng with a piercing sound, the virulent poison on the spikes even corroding the air with sizzling noises.Instead of retreating, Ye Xunfeng advanced. His Second Spirit Skill, Qingtian Prohibition, was suddenly triggered. The moment his spear tip touched the ground, a pale golden energy wave expanded outward.Porcupinefish Douluo's toxic spikes instantly dropped in speed by thirty percent, and even his leaping was restricted.Taking advantage of this, Ye Xunfeng exerted force with his feet, his figure darting out like an arrow. Blessed by his Third Spirit Skill, Blazing Flame Spear, the spear body was wrapped in raging flames.The red light was dazzling, piercing straight at Porcupinefish Douluo's sturdy armor with a single thrust. The flames burned the purple thorns into a sizzling smoke, but they were blocked by that thick layer of armor."The kid has got some skills, go die!" She Long shouted angrily, spreading out his Eighth Spirit Skill, Thunder Snake Prison, as the thunder-poison Domain instantly enveloped Ye Xunfeng.Purple lightning entangled with the poisonous mist, and sizzling currents struck Ye Xunfeng. At the same time, the Snake Lance turned into several phantoms, its consecutive strikes of the Nine Severing Shadow Slashes sealing off all angles of his evasion.Seizing the opportunity, Porcupinefish Douluo spat out his Fifth Spirit Skill, Bone-Eroding Venomous Saliva. The dark green toxic mucus corroded deep pits the moment it hit the ground.Heading straight for Ye Xunfeng's retreat path, the joint offensive of the two Titled Douluo was airtight. Lightning, poison, and physical attacks stacked layer upon layer, pressing down on Ye Xunfeng until his breathing stalled slightly.Ye Xunfeng immediately activated his Fourth Spirit Skill, Qingtian Dance, his spear body dancing rapidly as his spirit power surged violently.The gravitational force generated around the spear completely absorbed the incoming lightning threads and toxic spikes, and then he smashed a spear down onto the ground, shattering the poisonous mist close to him.However, the continuous damage of the Thunder Snake Prison still caused his spirit power to deplete extremely quickly. His arm was grazed by the purple lightning, and half of it went numb instantly.Knowing he couldn't endure it head-on, his spirit power suddenly erupted beneath his feet, and his Fifth Spirit Skill, Conquering the Heavens, activated, doubling his strength and speed.Ye Xunfeng took a heavy breath. Whether it was his combat awareness or combat skills, they were indeed still too poor.The spear tip locked onto She Long's chest, thrusting out with a single strike.She Long hurriedly used his Snake Lance to block. The immense force knocked him back repeatedly, and the snake head was even jarred crooked to the side. This blow directly repelled Snake Lance Douluo several zhang!But Porcupinefish Douluo's Sixth Spirit Skill, Deep Sea Poison Domain, had already formed, with dense purple mist stacking layer upon layer.Ye Xunfeng only felt that the circulation of his spirit power was becoming more and more sluggish. Continuing to fight like this would undoubtedly lead to defeat.Rather than wasting time here, it was better to leave quickly and recover his spirit power. After all, he possessed a Spirit core, so his spirit power recovered relatively quickly. Even if he wanted to fight, he should ensure his own safety.Ye Xunfeng no longer hesitated. He retrieved the Qingtian Spear to his side, and eight pristine white Angel Wings suddenly unfolded behind his back as the Prayer Angel Spirit was instantly released.Six black and one red spirit rings lit up faintly beneath the wings without activating any Spirit Ability.Relying solely on the speed brought by the Spirit, with a flap of his wings, his figure swept into the distance like a streak of white light.Seeing those eight Angel Wings, She Long and Porcupinefish Douluo's expressions changed drastically. Exchanging glances, they both saw wariness in each other's eyes."twin spirits!"Angel Spirit—that was the symbol of the Angel Clan in Spirit Hall. This kid was definitely no impostor!If they really killed this kid, the High Priest would probably slaughter them!But if they went back to report, Qian Xunji wouldn't spare them either.It would be better to stall here...How could the two still dare to genuinely chase? They merely feigned activating their spirit power while following behind.Spear images and toxic spikes were thrown out randomly, but their footsteps were very slow, purely to perfunctorily fulfill Qian Xunji's orders and put on an act.Relying on the speed of the Angel Wings, Ye Xunfeng flew farther and farther away, and the thunder-poison aura behind him gradually faded.Ye Xunfeng guessed that these two Douluo wouldn't genuinely chase.Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. A sense of emptiness in his spirit power surged over. He retracted his wings and found an isolated mountain forest to temporarily rest and recuperate.Sitting in the forest, Ye Xunfeng leaned against a nearby tree, crossed his legs, concentrated his mind, and rapidly condensed the spirit power within his body.He had to admit that whether it was from combat skills or the use of Spirit Abilities, he wasn't doing very well.After all, whenever he encountered enemies before, he solved them with a single spear strike, completely not needing him to throw a second spear.Now that he encountered someone stronger than him, fighting required skills.
