The Wind Baboon leader had been wounded by Hu Liena, causing the other two thousand-year Wind Baboons to roar in fury. Cyan soul power gathered in their maws, and after a brief pause, they each spat out a massive wind blade several meters long.
The two wind blades sliced through the air, crossing paths as they flew toward Hu Liena at extreme speed, leaving trails of cyan afterimages in their wake.
Hu Liena let out a soft laugh.
She didn't bother to dodge; instead, she activated her martial soul.
Two flashes of silver light erupted behind her.
Of the three fox tails manifesting at her back, the center one remained still, while the other two pulsed with dense soul power and extended outward.
As she drove her martial soul further, the two forward-striking tails flashed with fire, releasing a massive amount of crimson flames.
At that moment, the flaming tails looked like two fire dragons as they swung heavily, lashing out at the two massive wind blades.
Although the cyan wind blades moved rapidly under the enhancement of wind-attribute soul power, Hu Liena's Charming Fox martial soul was primarily a mental attribute soul, granting her a significant boost in mental strength.
This powerful mental force not only helped her control the power of her martial soul and soul rings but also heightened her perception in battle.
With the combined force of the physical strike and the high-temperature combustion of the flames, a single hit from the Flame Tails shattered the two cyan wind blades instantly.
A storm of cyan and red energy erupted in the air, and the essence of wind and fire swept through the forest.
Seeing the Wind Baboon leader's face contort in rage as it prepared to pounce, Hu Liena—seeking to avoid being ganged up on by three thousand-year Wind Baboons—suddenly let her eyes glow with a purple light.
Simultaneously, a yellow soul ring began to rotate around her body.
"First Soul Skill: Charming Heart."
At this moment, Hu Liena's pair of purple eyes seemed to swirl with flowing light, captivating the soul.
A powerful wave of mental energy was released.
Mental attacks are formless and invisible, making them difficult to track or resist through pure soul power alone.
The three Wind Baboons were instantly hit.
A cluster of purple light lit up in each of their eyes, and they immediately lost their wits. Their minds failed them, and they stood rooted to the spot like statues, their violently surging soul power gradually calming down.
Retracting her fox tails and seeing that the three thousand-year soul beasts were temporarily controlled, Hu Liena wore a faint smile, the purple glow in her eyes undiminished.
She kicked off the ground, leaping into the air with her three silver-white long tails trailing behind her like silken ribbons. Mid-air, Hu Liena rapidly mobilized her soul power, crossing her arms over her chest.
As she channeled her martial soul, intense flames suddenly erupted across her arms, completely covering her limbs in her Charming Fox form. With a flick of her arms, she spread them wide.
A flash of crimson fire followed, and the flames on her arms leapt out, condensing into a multitude of red, diamond-shaped crystals. Each fragment was thin and sharp at both ends, radiating a scorching heat.
This was her self-created soul skill: "Fox Flame Wedge."
Dozens of these fiery red diamond crystals shot out instantly like flying daggers toward the three Wind Baboons. They moved at incredible speeds, leaving dozens of red trails in the air.
Thud, thud, thud...
A series of impacts rang out.
Fresh red blood sprayed as if it cost nothing, followed by a string of roars.
Even though the imminent threat to their lives had triggered an intense mental alarm, allowing the three Wind Baboons to forcibly break free from Hu Liena's control, it was already too late to dodge.
The dozens of diamond crystals, carrying a strong fire attribute, accurately struck the bodies of the three Wind Baboons.
The Fox Flame Wedge was not only imbued with extremely pure fire energy, but the resulting red crystals were also exceptionally hard with razor-sharp edges.
Given Hu Liena's current cultivation, their hardness and sharpness were no less than that of a Rank 3 soul weapon. Since there were only three targets and a vast number of crystals, the three soul beasts were wounded all over.
Each bore at least a dozen red crystals.
Although the baboons had circulated their soul power at the last second to bolster their physical defense—preventing the crystals from piercing completely through—the shards were still buried deep in their flesh, making them look like porcupines.
"Burst!"
As the word left her lips, a thunderous roar followed.
The red light on the dozens of diamond crystals flickered violently before exploding simultaneously like a cluster of fireballs. Flames shot out in all directions, sending out a scorching heat wave.
The three Wind Baboons wailed in agony, heavily damaged.
Their pained roars continued as they rolled and struggled on the ground.
Not only were they being consumed by flames, but their bodies were also charred black. Their cyan fur was almost entirely incinerated by the blistering heat, and their auras visibly withered.
From a distance, Ling Xiao nodded at the scene.
Facing three thousand-year soul beasts at once—one of which had a cultivation level slightly higher than her own and a bloodline comparable to her martial soul's origin—she was able to handle them with such ease and inflict such heavy damage.
It seemed he had underestimated Nana's strength in the past.
Seeing that the three soul beasts were wounded by her Fox Flame Wedge but not yet completely incapacitated, Hu Liena's eyes flashed.
Upon landing, she crouched slightly.
Silver-white soul power surged as her Charming Fox martial soul radiated brilliant light. Three silver fox tails extended once more, ignited by scorching crimson flames.
Hu Liena's offensive was lightning-fast.
The three Wind Baboons were already severely injured; not only were their bodies burning, but their internal organs had been shocked by the previous explosions.
The fire energy had even invaded their systems, making them feel as if they were being burned from the inside out. Naturally, they were unable to resist and were struck directly by the Flame Tails.
The fire attached to the tails intensified their burns, while the massive physical force behind the strike sent them flying. With several loud thuds, the three soul beasts crashed into thick trees in the distance.
Their bodies slid slowly to the ground.
Though the flames continued to flicker on their hides, they were silent.
Judging by the way they slumped after the impact, it seemed their spines had been snapped by the force of Hu Liena's Flame Tails.
Sure enough, a large number of purple light specks soon emerged from the three Wind Baboons, eventually coalescing into three purple soul rings that floated quietly in the air.
Due to the battle between Hu Liena and the pack of Wind Baboons, the vegetation in the clearing had suffered, having been burned into a scorched wasteland. Many trees over ten meters away had also been ignited by the aftermath of the flames.
Seeing the battle was over, Hu Liena glanced at the fires on the surrounding trees.
She reached out her right hand and made a beckoning motion. Relying on her mental strength and her control over fire, the flames on the trees were instantly reigned in and flown toward her palm.
Within a few breaths, she had drawn the fire back into her martial soul. With a flash of silver-white light, Hu Liena deactivated her martial soul possession and withdrew her power.
