Seeing his attack miss, Feng Xiaotian became somewhat frustrated, and even the pain he had barely suppressed began to rear its head again.
In this situation, time was not on Feng Xiaotian's side, but because he was so eager to save time, he became even more impatient.
And impatience would only lead him to make worse choices, wasting even more time.
Just like just now, Feng Xiaotian had obviously not paid attention to his surroundings.
Lin Meng's figure disappeared from Feng Xiaotian's sight, but strangely, he did not reappear as expected.
He had obviously used the difference in elevation to hide himself below.
This discovery made Feng Xiaotian, who was trying to chase Lin Meng, stop abruptly.
The sudden disappearance aroused his vigilance. He was worried that Lin Meng was setting a trap, waiting for him to jump down.
In order to lock onto Lin Meng's position, Feng Xiaotian mobilized his five senses and mental power to probe.
Because the aura emanating from Lin Meng was too scorching, it was not difficult for him to find Lin Meng. However, Lin Meng's position was actually directly below the high platform, only a dozen meters in front of him.
From the position, it seemed that Lin Meng was ambushing him. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he might have been counterattacked by the lurking Lin Meng from below.
Moreover, what made him even more uncomfortable was that after Lin Meng realized that he had stopped, he did not choose to move, but continued to lurk in place openly.
This overly obvious act of seduction made Feng Xiaotian hesitate.
This was exactly the same tactic that Feng Xiaotian had applied to Lin Meng, except that Lin Meng did it even more exaggeratedly.
But it was this simple tactic that brought great psychological pressure to Feng Xiaotian.
Because the unknown is the most terrifying. Judging from Lin Meng's previous performance, his fighting style was to plan before acting. This current behavior might have some deeper meaning.
Feng Xiaotian's face became very gloomy. He felt very unwilling to be forced into the current predicament.
He also realized that he had been unknowingly pushed into the current embarrassing situation.
"Drip, drip..."
The sound of blood dripping to the ground seemed so clear in this tense and silent confrontation.
A small pool of blood began to slowly accumulate under Feng Xiaotian's feet, but his expression became more and more calm, and impetuous emotions such as anxiety and anger began to dissipate.
At this moment, he was like the calm before the storm.
Feng Xiaotian took a deep breath and calmly said to Lin Meng: "I admit that you and your teammates are very excellent soul masters.
I also admit that it was my arrogance to try to deal with you in the most effortless way.
Therefore, I will defeat you at all costs next."
Hearing this emotionless voice, Lin Meng, who was hiding under the high platform, felt his hair stand on end. A silent fear stimulated his keen senses, making him want to escape from here.
Lin Meng followed his body's instincts and moved at high speed along the side of the high platform.
Just as he escaped from the spot, six green rays of light, like lightning, instantly covered that position, and the high platform in front of them was directly shattered.
If Lin Meng had been a step slower, he might have suffered this attack.
Lin Meng, who was frightened into a cold sweat, dared not slow down and immediately activated full-speed sprinting mode.
But even so, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. This was exactly the scene he was most looking forward to.
He would rather endure more damage himself in order to provide better conditions for Huo Wushuang behind him.
Seeing Feng Wushuang getting serious, Lin Meng's fourth soul ring behind him finally lit up.
Like his other teammates, Lin Meng's fourth soul ring was also at the nine-thousand-year level.
Moreover, it also came from the top fire-attribute leopard-type soul beast, the Flame Scale Armor Leopard. This soul beast incorporated a small amount of dragon blood, causing its skin to resemble the scaly skin of a fish.
At the same time, this type of leopard far surpassed other leopard-type soul beasts in terms of physical fitness. Although its speed was outstanding, its other physical attributes were not bad at all.
Therefore, its soul ring brought Lin Meng a more comprehensive improvement, which was also the reason why he could brake so easily.
And the soul skill it gave Lin Meng was even more amazing.
"Fourth Soul Skill, Flame Scale Armor."
During the sprinting process, red scaly energy spread out from Lin Meng's body, clinging tightly to his skin.
The moment this thin, snake-like, soft energy substance appeared on Lin Meng's body, his limbs burst out with more scorching and fierce flames, raising his speed to another level.
"Bang!"
At the moment of acceleration, the firepower erupted from his limbs was like explosives, producing explosive thrust.
Even if Lin Meng released this level of power, its reaction force would cause no small damage to himself.
However, after this burst of power rebounded, it would be blocked by the thin scaly skin before harming Lin Meng, causing ripples that spread throughout his body.
This meant that the rebounding force would be dispersed to the whole body by the scales, playing a very strong buffering role.
Moreover, and more importantly, the firepower released by Lin Meng himself would have a significant increase when released to the outside world through the scales.
These were the effects of the fourth soul skill, Flame Scale Armor.
By releasing energy scales to protect the whole body, both energy and physical forces were buffered and defended.
The increase in defense was one hundred percent, but the buffering ability it came with could increase the bearing capacity to one hundred and fifty percent.
Combined with the third soul skill, the scales could provide Lin Meng with a two hundred percent increase in defense.
Moreover, the scales amplified the released fire-attribute energy by one hundred percent.
Similarly, combining the third soul skill, Lin Meng's fire attribute was amplified by two hundred and fifty percent.
Strictly speaking, this skill was a defensive soul skill, because although it had a fire attribute amplification, it had no attack effect.
However, this skill was no less important to Lin Meng than the third soul skill.
Because, if the third soul skill gave Lin Meng a powerful burst of power, then the fourth soul skill gave him the self-strength that could support the burst of power.
A powerful engine required powerful materials that could withstand the engine.
Although Lin Meng's explosive power was strong, it gave people a fragile feeling, but with the fourth soul skill, it was like putting on an extremely hard shell.
He could ram and bump as he pleased without worrying about self-destruction.
The further accelerated six green rays of light predicted Lin Meng's trajectory and smashed another large area of the high platform again.
However, with the blessing of the fourth soul skill, Lin Meng's speed increased again, dodging the green light.
Feng Xiaotian was also shocked by the violent aura emanating from Lin Meng. He accelerated his pace to follow Lin Meng, but found that his speed was actually slower than Lin Meng's.
Even if his speed was affected and fell to the Soul King realm, it was still at the top level of the Soul King realm, but the speed Lin Meng was showing now obviously exceeded this level.
