Chapter 246: The formation is difficult to break, Thunder Tiger attacks

Ren Xiaoyao stared intently at the stone slab before him, his hands dancing like butterflies, infusing it with streams of spiritual energy. The runes on the stone slab seemed to come alive, gleaming with dazzling light. However, the complexity of the formation far exceeded his imagination. No matter how hard he tried, he could not find the key to cracking it. As time passed, sweat covered his forehead and his breathing became rapid.

Charlene stood by, nervously surveying her surroundings. The cave echoed with the humming of the stone platform and the anxious growl of the Spirit Pet King. She didn't know if Brother Xiaoyao would succeed, but all she could do was pray silently and trust him.

Suddenly, Xia Lin's eyes fell on the entrance of the passage not far away. The mechanical trap that was originally flashing with dazzling light suddenly became dim and the figures of Lei Hu and his spiritual pet who were originally trapped in it gradually became clearer.

"Oh no! Brother Xiaoyao, Lei Hu is coming out!" Xia Lin exclaimed, her tone full of worry.

Ren Xiaoyao was startled when he heard this and suddenly opened his eyes. Sure enough, he saw Lei Hu controlling his spirit pet, frantically attacking the trap. The light of the trap was getting weaker and weaker, and it seemed that it was about to collapse.

"Damn it!" Ren Xiaoyao cursed inwardly, knowing he couldn't delay any longer. He took a deep breath, pressed his hands suddenly on the stone slab, and poured all his spiritual power into it without reservation.

"Om-"

The stone slabs trembled violently, bursting into an unprecedented light, and the entire cave seemed to be bathed in a holy glow. The King of Spirit Pets sensed this powerful force and stopped roaring. He turned to look at Ren Xiaoyao, his eyes filled with confusion and expectation.

"Break it for me!"

Ren Xiaoyao roared angrily and injected the last bit of spiritual power into the stone slab.

"Click——"

A crisp sound echoed through the cave, and the runes on the stone suddenly stopped functioning, and the light dimmed. At the same time, the trap that had trapped Thunder Tiger completely lost its function, turning into tiny specks of starlight and dissipating into the air.

"Hahaha, Ren Xiaoyao, your death has come!" Lei Hu smiled grimly, waved his hand, and commanded his spirit pet to pounce towards Ren Xiaoyao and Xia Lin with great momentum...

"Brother Xiaoyao, be careful!" Xia Lin exclaimed, but instead of dodging, Ren Xiaoyao had a meaningful smile on his face. He slowly extended his right hand and pointed at the King of Spirit Pets beside him...

The king of spirit pets paced back and forth around the stone platform anxiously, the flickering rune light on the stone platform reflected in his golden pupils. From time to time, he lowered his head and nudged Ren Xiaoyao with his nose, making a low roar in his throat, as if he was also worried about the predicament in front of him.

Suddenly, a piercing sound of shattering machinery emanated from the depths of the tunnel. Xia Lin's heart sank, and her face paled. Lei Hu appeared at the entrance, his clothes disheveled, his face brimming with anger and resentment. He had clearly suffered greatly from the trap.

"Ren Xiaoyao, you despicable villain! I want you dead!" Lei Hu roared with gritted teeth. The spirit pet beside him also let out a deafening roar, revealing its sharp fangs in the direction of Ren Xiaoyao and Xia Lin.

Before Ren Xiaoyao and Xia Lin could react, Lei Hu had already commanded his spirit pet to pounce again. The spirit pet moved at an extremely fast speed, transforming into a streak of black lightning, stirring up a gust of fishy wind, and opening its bloody mouth to bite Ren Xiaoyao's throat.

"Brother Xiaoyao, be careful!" Xia Lin exclaimed and wanted to go forward to help, but was pulled behind by Ren Xiaoyao.

"Protect yourself, leave this to me!" Ren Xiaoyao protected Xia Lin behind him, staring at the spiritual pet rushing towards him with a sharp gaze. He swung his right hand suddenly, and a fierce gust of wind blew out, forcing the spiritual pet back a few steps.

"Hmph, you're overestimating yourself!" Lei Hu sneered, waving the whip in his hand. His spirit pet received the command and launched another attack. This time, its target was Xia Lin...

Thunder Tiger's pet's target was clear, its fierce gaze fixed on Xia Lin. Ren Xiaoyao's heart tightened, knowing he had to resolve the dilemma as quickly as possible. He took a deep breath and decisively turned to face Thunder Tiger, his eyes gleaming with determination. Although the ancient formation was right before his eyes, he had to deal with the immediate threat first.

"Lei Hu, do you think you can win like this? You underestimate me!" Ren Xiaoyao's voice echoed in the empty stone chamber, his tone full of confidence and determination.

"Hmph, you're still stubborn even when death is imminent!" Lei Hu sneered, and the long whip in his hand danced like a poisonous snake, commanding his spirit pet to launch a more fierce attack on Ren Xiaoyao.

Ren Xiaoyao didn't dare to be careless. He mobilized the little spiritual energy he had left, pushing his speed and strength to the limit. He nimbly dodged the attacks of the spirit pet, looking for opportunities to counterattack. However, the long struggle to break the formation had already drained him of his strength and energy. Facing the combined attack of Thunder Tiger and the spirit pet, he gradually felt somewhat overwhelmed.

Elsewhere, Xia Lin was besieged by several spirit pets. She wielded her dagger, deftly dodging their attacks. Although her strength was inferior to Ren Xiaoyao's, she remained calm and composed in the face of the crisis. She knew she had to hold on and not become a burden to Ren Xiaoyao.

"Brother Xiaoyao, be careful!" Xia Lin shouted anxiously while resisting the attack of the spirit pet.

Ren Xiaoyao heard Xia Lin's cry and became even more anxious. He knew he couldn't delay any longer and had to deal with Lei Hu as soon as possible. A flash of determination flashed in his eyes, and he decided to take a risk and use a trick he hadn't yet fully mastered.

"Lei Hu, you forced me to do this!" Ren Xiaoyao roared, quickly forming seals with his hands, and a powerful spiritual power wave burst out from his body.

Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Ren Xiaoyao, Lei Hu's face changed slightly, and a hint of uneasiness rose in his heart. However, he did not retreat, but instead urged his spirit pet even more frantically, hoping to seize the opportunity to defeat Ren Xiaoyao.

"Kill him for me!" Lei Hu roared, his eyes full of madness and murderous intent.

The spirit pet received the command, let out a deafening roar, and pounced towards Ren Xiaoyao... At this moment, an old and majestic voice came from the depths of the stone chamber:

"stop!"
