Bloodshadow Mantis was going to duel the Earth Otter, of course Wang Xiao had to follow!
In case this little guy wasn't a match, he could provide timely assistance!
Before Bloodshadow Mantis even got close, the Earth Otter was already alert, striking a vigilant pose!
After all, this little guy had only been born recently and wasn't very good at concealing its killing intent, making it difficult for the Earth Otter not to notice!
Actually, it didn't matter, Bloodshadow Mantis had no intention of hiding anyway!
After approaching the Earth Otter, it didn't rashly attack!
Instead, it began circling around it, as if searching for a weakness.
Bloodshadow Mantis's rotation speed wasn't fast. As it rotated, the Earth Otter also turned its body to follow, but the latter's turns seemed much clumsier!
A minute later, Bloodshadow Mantis found an opportunity. It suddenly disappeared from its spot, instantly appearing on the Earth Otter's right rear side.
A pair of blade-like scythes were unhesitatingly swung out in a cross shape, slashing towards the soft flesh on the inner side of the Earth Otter's hind leg!
This area was actually covered with dense fur, providing extremely strong defense!
But Bloodshadow Mantis's attack came with armor-piercing, instantly slicing off a tuft of stiff fur and carving a cross-shaped bloodline on its body!
However, due to the disparity in strength, this wound was very shallow. To the massive Earth Otter, it was like being bitten by a mosquito!
Don't let the Earth Otter's slow movement speed fool you, its counterattacks were actually very agile. The instant Bloodshadow Mantis struck it, one of its claws had already swiped over, the steel-like claws tearing through the air, creating a whooshing sound!
However, after Bloodshadow Mantis swung its scythes, regardless of the outcome, it would immediately retreat, perfectly dodging the Earth Otter's counterattack.
In an instant, it flashed to the Earth Otter's left side, similarly swinging out an attack!
Bloodshadow Mantis always struck and retreated, dealing only minor damage and perfectly dodging the Earth Otter's counterattacks!
From the moment Bloodshadow Mantis launched its attack, within a short minute, it had already attacked more than a dozen times, the attacks coming wave after wave, with almost no pause.
This powerful battle instinct left Wang Xiao, who was watching from a hundred meters away, in awe!
The Earth Otter's body had already been marked with dozens of wounds!
However, these wounds were insignificant to the Earth Otter, completely painless and ignored!
However, Wang Xiao had already keenly noticed!
Bloodshadow Mantis's attacks weren't in vain!
Because the Earth Otter was bleeding!
Although the amount of blood was pitifully small, it was bleeding after all!
A tiny portion of the blood that flowed out stained the mantis's scythes, then transformed into a very thin layer of blood-qi shield, enveloping Bloodshadow Mantis's body!
Another portion of the blood that flowed out slowly vaporized, forming an extremely thin red mist, permeating the air around the Earth Otter!
Relying on its speed advantage, Bloodshadow Mantis darted left and right, front and back, constantly carving thin bloodlines on the Earth Otter's body!
After more than ten minutes, half of the fur on the Earth Otter's body had been shaved off, revealing dense cuts that, when connected, looked like a spider web!
The blood seeping from these wounds accumulated little by little, and the blood mist forming in the air became increasingly noticeable!
Wang Xiao could see that Bloodshadow Mantis was planning to rely on the accumulation of these minor damages to condense a Bloodshadow Clone!
Once a Bloodshadow Clone was condensed, there would be two mantises attacking simultaneously, and the damage dealt would increase more and more!
If the Earth Otter couldn't stop Bloodshadow Mantis's offensive, it might be snowballed, slowly accumulating and expanding its advantage, thereby creating more Bloodshadow Clones!
Once there were enough Bloodshadow Clones, the Earth Otter wouldn't be able to hold on!
Moreover, once Bloodshadow Mantis fused with a clone, its strength would double with each fusion, eventually being able to directly confront the Earth Otter!
However, this was like ants biting an elephant, a huge project!
Wang Xiao suddenly thought that if Ah Li was here, she could use mathematical methods to calculate how long it would take for the Bloodshadow Mantis, this little ant, to bite the Earth Otter, this elephant, to death!
He calculated the time. At this moment, it was midnight in the Gu Master world!
So Wang Xiao immediately used the Dream-Eating Worm to check if Ah Li was asleep!
As expected, Ah Li was asleep!
Wang Xiao immediately invaded her dream!
After seeing Wang Xiao in her dream, Ah Li's first reaction was to immediately hug her chest with her arms and exclaim, "Ah, you're here again! I'm warning you, if you dare to do that kind of thing to me again, I'll tell Miss when I wake up!"
Wang Xiao rolled his eyes!
"Ah Li, you can't talk nonsense! What have I ever done to you? You're the one who likes to have erotic dreams, and you're blaming me for coming? I haven't even accused you of molesting me in my dreams!"
Ah Li said with a red face, "I know, it's all your doing, otherwise I wouldn't have such dreams!"
Wang Xiao impatiently waved his hand and said, "I won't let you have erotic dreams this time! I'm here to test if you've made any progress in mathematics! I'll give you a math problem to solve!"
Upon hearing that she had to do a math problem, Ah Li immediately became interested!
She said, "Okay, then give me the question!"
Wang Xiao nodded and said, "Suppose there's an ant that wants to kill an elephant! Each time it attacks, it can deal two points of damage to the elephant. Every time it deals a thousand points of damage, another ant will come to help, but the newly appeared ant can only deal one point of damage per attack... If the first ant fuses with all the ants that come to help, its own damage will double with each fusion..."
"Assuming the elephant's total health is... Question: How long will it take for this ant to kill the elephant?"
After hearing the question, Ah Li asked, "Will the elephant kill the ants?"
"Assume the elephant cannot harm the ants!"
"Okay!"
Ah Li immediately entered the zone and began calculating!
About fifteen minutes later, Ah Li gave the answer!
"After calculation, this ant will kill the elephant in 57 hours, 13 minutes, and 05 seconds!"
"57 hours and a little more? More than two days?"
Ah Li nodded affirmatively: "Yes!"
Wang Xiao felt that when Ah Li talked about mathematics, her expression was serious and sacred. If she wore glasses, she would look just like a mathematics professor from his university in his previous life!
Wang Xiao decided that when he returned to Golden Bell City, he would find someone to specially make a pair of glasses for Ah Li so she could cosplay a university professor!
Okay, let's put aside such bad tastes for now!
Wang Xiao nodded, suddenly reached out and touched Ah Li, then left the dream amidst her scream!
His consciousness instantly returned, looking towards the battlefield!
Bloodshadow Mantis was still circling around the Earth Otter. It was like a dancing elf, or a red ghost, carving two bloodlines on the Earth Otter's body almost every ten seconds!
The color of the blood shield on its body became clearer and clearer!
The blood mist permeating the air also became thicker and thicker. It looked like it would be able to condense a Bloodshadow Clone after a while!
Time passed minute by minute!
Wang Xiao handed over the guard duty to the Moon Demon Bat, instructing it to rescue Bloodshadow Mantis if it encountered danger!
Then he went to take a dump, came back to eat something, and actually sat on the ground to cultivate.
After all, these two guys were going to fight for more than two days, time was precious, he had to seize the time to cultivate!
