As for Black and that Xenomorph, a more thrilling duel unfolded on the ground—a battle of aura.
Because at this moment, Black was completely bound by the Xenomorph's mud and sand restraint skill, unable to move.
His entire body was covered in mud and sand, like a mud-man.
The Xenomorph opposite him was no better; Black's Devour Rebound skill activated, and the Xenomorph was also covered in mud and sand, unable to move.
Both sides were at a stalemate, completely relying on their internal energy reserves.
Zuo Feng, who had run far away, stopped and observed carefully.
Watching the battle of the four fleshy balls in the air, Zuo Feng always felt that something was off; he felt that Hei Fanfan and Hei Tantan were acting, and the two little bear companion beasts were cooperating with them, as if playing a game of tacit agreement.
Every collision seemed fierce, but with that collision speed and force, Zuo Feng believed he could easily block it with any defensive skill.
They were so elastic, Zuo Feng was sure that if they hit him, he could bounce those two little bear companion beasts dozens of meters away!
These four companion beasts were definitely acting against him! But he had no evidence.
It must have been discussed by the four little beasts before the battle; they were in cahoots!
Zuo Feng's nose was almost crooked with anger; did they have to show such favoritism?
Against him, it was a big slap plus a rock storm, but when they fought each other, it was a light "bumper ball" game?
Zuo Feng had so many little companion beasts, and he often saw the little beasts at home playing games with such light collisions, which seemed fierce but were actually harmless.
However, on second thought, Zuo Feng couldn't help but feel a chill of fear; it was a good thing they had discussed it.
Zuo Feng was sure that he couldn't have blocked that big slap just now.
When he couldn't hold on, the big slap suddenly stopped its attack and then dissipated; otherwise, he would probably be a pile of meat now.
At first, Zuo Feng thought the big slap's retreat was due to energy dissipation, but now it seemed that the two little bear companion beasts had done it intentionally, deliberately holding back.
Just then, Mu Jingjing and Mu Lingling, who had been hidden for a long time, suddenly attacked!
The earth trembled violently, as if some giant creature was awakening underground.
Centered on the earth-attribute Xenomorph, the ground within several hundred meters suddenly bulged upward and cracked!
Five Python Branch Giant Trees broke through the soil, and countless Python Branch deeply rooted in the ground, writhing like giant pythons.
"Rumble!" The earth cracked, and Python Branch intertwined into a net, directly lifting the entire ground within a hundred meters, forming a huge semi-circular cage.
At the same time, countless Python Branch descended from the sky, coiling and intertwining into the other half of the spherical dome.
The two halves of the giant cage slammed shut, imprisoning the Xenomorph and the companion beasts.
Zuo Feng watched, dumbfounded.
It was the first time he had witnessed such a shocking scene; on the surface of the huge cage, which was two hundred meters in diameter, the gnarled Python Branch slowly wriggled and tightened like living things.
A teeth-grinding creaking sound was emitted, and each tightening seemed to squeeze one's heart, compressing the space inside the cage smaller and smaller.
It wasn't until the spherical cage had shrunk to fifty meters in diameter that it stopped shrinking.
The dense Python Branch still slowly wriggled, weaving the entire spherical cage airtight.
Zuo Feng was shocked; he hadn't expected when Mu Jingjing and Mu Lingling had learned this move. Could it be that someone in the base was knitting sweaters and these two little guys learned it?
The technique of the Python Branch weaving was exactly like knitting a sweater.
Zuo Feng couldn't help but rub his eyes, confirming that this was not an illusion.
Mu Jingjing and Mu Lingling cooperated perfectly, and the speed of the Python Branch weaving was dazzling.
Zuo Feng shook his head and ignored it, taking out a set of clothes from the kongling crystal and slowly changing into them. As for the battle inside the spherical cage, although he couldn't see it, he wasn't worried at all.
Hei Fanfan, Hei Tantan, and the two little bear companion beasts, these four little guys were completely acting, so what danger could there be?
As for Black and that Xenomorph, they were fighting for real, but both sides were completely trapped by restraint skills, so there was even less need to worry about a battle of energy reserves.
Black had already evolved to three vertical bars, while that Xenomorph was only close to the level of three vertical bars, and its energy reserves were far less than Black's.
Moreover, with the Python Branch Giant Tree helping, there was no need to worry at all.
This Xenomorph was basically in the bag; now it was just a matter of patiently waiting for the earth-attribute Xenomorph to exhaust its stamina, and then it could be easily taken down.
It seemed that Si Jingjing and Si Yingying wouldn't need to make a move.
Zuo Feng sat leisurely to the side, even taking out a bottle of salt soda and slowly drinking it.
His gaze occasionally swept over the huge Python Branch cage, and a confident smile played on his lips; the victory of this battle was only a matter of time.
However, reality often contradicted ideals.
Just as Zuo Feng was relaxing, Si Jingjing and Si Yingying suddenly appeared above the cage.
"Don't...!" Zuo Feng was about to stop them, but found that only their slowly dissipating afterimages remained where Si Jingjing and Si Yingying had been, and two clear small holes were visible above the cage.
Zuo Feng's heart tightened, realizing that they had already made a move. These two little guys had directly penetrated the Python Branch and entered the cage.
Although the two small holes were quickly covered by new Python Branch, Zuo Feng's brows furrowed; although the Python Branch were tough, they couldn't withstand the antics of these two little guys with seven vertical bars.
But now that these two little guys had gone in, Zuo Feng had no choice but to secretly pray that they wouldn't cause a big mess.
Energy collision fluctuations faintly emanated from within the cage, and Zuo Feng's heart fluctuated with them.
However, just as Zuo Feng thought that the intense energy collision was merely a sign of fierce internal fighting, and was about to take another sip of his drink to calm himself, a sudden change occurred!
Boom!
An indescribable terrifying energy suddenly erupted from within the cage!
The tough cage, tightly woven from countless thick Python Branch and capable of supporting a hundred meters of earth, was like a balloon stretched to its limit, its surface instantly bulging with countless irregular giant lumps!
The gnarled, writhing Python Branch emitted a teeth-grinding, unbearable groan, as if they would be torn apart from within at any second!
"What?!"
Zuo Feng suddenly sprang from the ground, the salt soda bottle in his hand almost slipping.
The leisure and confidence on his face vanished, leaving only extreme shock and disbelief.
What were these two big shots, Si Jingjing and Si Yingying, doing? This energy fluctuation, who else could it be but them? Zuo Feng's heart pounded; they wouldn't be trying to directly detonate the cage, would they?
In that case, it was very likely to cause the Xenomorph to escape!
Zuo Feng was sweating profusely with anxiety, but he was helpless. The energy fluctuations inside the cage became increasingly violent, as if they could erupt at any moment.
Almost at the moment of Zuo Feng's shock, "Chila—!" a sharp, piercing tearing sound rang out.
At the top of the cage, where Si Jingjing and Si Yingying had previously drilled two small holes, it was now as if an invisible giant claw had violently ripped it open, and the tough Python Branch snapped and flew apart inch by inch!
Two slender figures, yet containing destructive power, shot out from it!
It was Si Jingjing and Si Yingying!
Their small bodies were like being heavily smashed by an invisible giant hammer, tumbling in the air, drawing two disheveled trajectories.
The salt soda Zuo Feng had just taken a sip of instantly sprayed out, his eyes wide with disbelief as he watched the scene before him.
After Si Jingjing and Si Yingying flew several hundred meters, the two beasts stabilized themselves in mid-air, and then once again transformed into streaks of light, "bravely" rushing back into the spherical cage!
A Black line appeared on Zuo Feng's forehead; his suspended heart finally settled. These two big shots were actually acting too.
Zuo Feng shook his head helplessly—you two big shots with seven vertical bars, being knocked so awkwardly by a little guy with less than three vertical bars, who would believe it if you told them?
This acting, Zuo Feng had to admit, he almost believed it.
It's a pity they're illiterate, otherwise, if he gave them a book on an actor's self-cultivation, they might become best actor/actress award winners.
