Chapter 952 Mental Attack
However, at this time, Xiying and Jiang Dayang's attacks also arrived. Two powerful spiritual weapons flew into the sky at the same time and attacked the evil spirit from different angles. Of course, the evil spirit did not dare to take it head-on, so it could only temporarily interrupt the mental attack on Qingyang and quickly used its body skills to hide to the side.
Without waiting for the evil spirit to catch its breath, Jiang Dahai's attack followed. The evil spirit could only look at Xiying and Jiang Dayang with hatred, and used its body skills to hide to the side again. Then Qingyang, Xiying, and the two brothers of the Jiang family surrounded the evil spirit and took turns to attack him with spiritual weapons, not giving him a chance to breathe, so that he could not use mental attacks.
The evil spirit only had the cultivation of perfect foundation building, and his average strength was about the same as Qingyang and the others. The reason why he was able to force Xiao Yuhan into that before was that he relied on sneak attacks, using his best mental attacks to severely damage Xiao Yuhan's soul, and then the battle became one-sided.
Now Qingyang, Xiying and the Jiang brothers have all come. Four foundation-building perfect cultivators besieged him, and among them there is a master like Qingyang who can kill enemies across levels. The fate of the evil spirit can be imagined. It was completely suppressed by Qingyang and others, and had no chance to show its special strengths.
In the blink of an eye, five or six rounds passed, and the evil spirit could only passively dodge, but how can you not get your shoes wet if you always walk by the river? If you keep being passively beaten, there will always be times when you can't dodge in time. The evil spirit was chopped by Qingyang's dual-element sword formation without paying attention.
The evil spirit's body is his biggest weakness. How can he withstand such an attack? When the sword formation passed, the evil spirit's body was immediately shredded into pieces all over the sky, and it was no longer as arrogant as before. Seeing this situation, some people secretly breathed a sigh of relief, while others raised their hearts, because they knew that the evil spirit could not be killed so easily.
Evil spirits are similar to ghosts. They are cultivated by the soul. At first, they are just a collection of negative energy. As their strength increases, they gradually cultivate their bodies. Such attacks can only break their bodies, but cannot hurt their roots.
Sure enough, after a few breaths, the fragments in the sky quickly gathered in one direction. Before others could react, the fragments gathered together and formed the shape of the previous evil spirit. The only difference from before was that the evil spirit's cultivation seemed to have dropped to the ninth level of foundation building.
Although Qingyang's attack could not kill the evil spirit, such an attack still had some effect on the evil spirit. Whether the body was broken or reassembled, it would consume huge energy, so the strength of the evil spirit would be slightly reduced.
The evil spirit acted completely on instinct, and the loss of strength was more difficult for him to accept than the loss of food. He had worked hard in this Yinfeng Extreme Fire Cave for many years to reach such a state. As long as he encountered an opportunity and entered the Jindan stage, which was the ghost spirit stage of ghost cultivators, his ghost body would be greatly strengthened, not much worse than the cultivators of the same level.
As a result, Qingyang's years of hard work were broken up in an instant. Now his strength has dropped to the level of the ninth level of foundation building. It is unknown how long it will take to recover his previous strength. So the evil spirit's body just finished combining, and it screamed at Qingyang, the culprit, at the same time, an imperceptible energy wave shot towards Qingyang.
This imperceptible energy is the evil spirit's mental attack, which is not only extremely powerful, but also incredibly fast. Not to mention the foundation building cultivators, even ordinary Jindan cultivators find it difficult to defend.
Fortunately, Qingyang is different from others. Because of the One-horned Ghost King, he has specially consulted relevant information and has a certain understanding of the attack methods of ghost cultivators. When besieging the evil spirit, Qingyang has a certain precaution against mental attacks. Although the attack of the evil spirit is extremely fast, it is not so unexpected. In addition, Qingyang often practices the Concentration Technique passed down by the One-horned Ghost King. His soul is much stronger than that of the cultivators of the same level, and his ability to withstand mental attacks is also stronger.
Mental attacks are silent and there is no good defense method. Qingyang can only rely on his powerful soul to take it hard. The mental attack came in an instant. Qingyang just felt a cold energy shooting into his body, and then his soul came with a sharp pain, which made him almost unable to control himself. Then his face turned pale, his body shook, and he almost fell to the ground.
However, Qingyang was prepared for this. He bit the tip of his tongue hard with his teeth, and then shook his dizzy head vigorously, gradually waking up from the state of being attacked.
In a rage, the evil spirit used almost 100% of his strength in this mental attack, which was even more powerful than when he attacked Xiao Yuhan before. If he used it to attack other people, even if he couldn't knock them down immediately, he could at least severely injure them and reduce one opponent for himself.
Unfortunately, the evil spirit chose the powerful Qingyang as his target by mistake. This attack only made Qingyang's soul dazed for a while, and did not cause much damage. If he fought alone, the evil spirit could still take advantage of Qingyang's daze to kill him, but now that Qingyang's side had more people, the evil spirit had no such opportunity. He had just launched a mental attack, and Xiying and the Jiang brothers had already reacted. Seeing that Qingyang was fine, they quickly sacrificed their spiritual weapons to hold the evil spirit back.
The situation afterwards became more favorable to Qingyang and others. After suffering a severe blow, the evil spirit's strength declined slightly, including his body movements, attack power, and even reaction speed. After Qingyang and others became familiar with the evil spirit's fighting rhythm, they became more and more comfortable.
Not long after, the evil spirit was hit by Xiying's spiritual energy again. After its body was broken and reorganized, its strength dropped a lot again, and it could hardly maintain its ninth level of foundation building. This time, Qingyang and others learned from their experience. They did not stop after the attack and continued to attack the evil spirit in turns, making it impossible for the other party to find another opportunity to launch a spiritual attack.
Qingyang and others became more and more comfortable with the attack, and the evil spirit fell into a vicious cycle. It could only passively take the beating, but could not find a chance to fight back. Every time it was killed, its strength dropped. After the strength dropped, it would be easier to be killed. In less than a quarter of an hour, the evil spirit was hit four or five times by Qingyang and others in a row. Its strength dropped all the way to the seventh level of foundation building. It could hardly even maintain its body. It was barely put together, and it was not a human form.
Seeing that it would be completely dispersed if it continued like this, the evil spirit finally got scared, and a trace of fear appeared on its face. Even Qingyang and the others felt it, and kept looking for opportunities to break out. Qingyang and the others naturally could not let it leave easily, so they each used their spiritual weapons to surround and intercept it.
