The high-speed lance thrust only left sparks and slight white scratches on the carapace.
No breach in defense...
The speed of this three-tailed poisonous scorpion completely couldn't keep up with the swiftly moving Great Needle Bee. Its two pincers were like decorations, only managing to block and clamp futilely, unable to change direction without hitting Mo Jin.
On the contrary, the three tails attempted to entwine Mo Jin but were easily swatted away with a riding spear.
The ensuing battle was a direct confrontation between the bee and the scorpion.
One relied on extreme speed, leaving afterimages while attacking around the giant scorpion, with both lances striking sparks, yet only leaving white marks and scratches on the opponent's body.
The other relied on a hard shell and high defense, standing steadfast like a rock. Its pincers protected its eyes while trying to clamp the enemy, and its three tails raised high, sometimes firing poison needles, sometimes trying to entangle the Great Needle Bee at close range, attempting to pull it down from the air.
The two sides fought back and forth for over ten minutes, neither able to overcome the other.
However, through Mo Qingchen's perspective, some differences on the battlefield were still noticed.
As the battle prolonged, sharp stone spears appeared under the belly of the scorpion, hidden underground, aiming at the air and ready to launch a sneak attack at any time.
Similarly, Mo Jin in the air was now cloaked in a thin layer of green light, with silver-white riding spears entwined with green runes.
"Jin Jin, be careful of sneak attacks! The big scorpion can manipulate Earth Power!"
Training was training, but Mo Qingchen didn't want her Guardian Beast to be severely injured.
This scorpion was very sinister, not only hiding stone spears beneath it but also hiding spears within a ten-meter radius. However, they were buried deeper underground.
With Mo Qingchen's reminder, Mo Jin activated the skill that all Tier Four Guardian Beasts knew—[Energy Shield]—without hesitation.
The moment the shield was activated, he turned into a gold and blue streak of light, plummeting like a meteor.
At the same time, eight stone spears broke through the ground, skimming the scorpion's abdomen, shooting out rapidly.
Eight stone spears, eight directions, directly blocking all of Mo Jin's flight paths.
In a flash, green Wind Blades formed and shot out instantly.
But compared to the well-prepared scorpion that shot eight stone spears at once,
Mo Jin, in a hurry, only managed to conjure two Wind Blades.
One left and one right, the Wind Blades hacked at the stone spears, cleaving the spear tips and breaking the spear directly ahead.
In a critical moment, Mo Jin slightly adjusted his position, shooting through the gap of the two broken stone spears.
Six stone spears nearly grazed his body, slicing through the air without causing any harm to him.
"Bang!" sounded a loud crash.
With tremendous impact, a riding spear swiftly swung, leaving streaks of afterimage flowers, instantly brushing away the scorpion's two pincers.
The other riding spear, like a Flood Dragon emerging from the sea, stabbed rapidly and accurately into the scorpion's left eye!
Blood exploded, and the scorpion suffered severe damage instantly, its three tails thrashing wildly, attempting to entangle the Great Needle Bee hovering above it.
With a hissing noise, the three scorpion tails, carrying terrifying force, pierced through the Energy Shield but exhausted their strength.
Yet, the scorpion wasn't willing to give up, simultaneously firing three poison needles from its three tails.
The poison needles shot from a few feet away, and even though Mo Jin's wings quivered as he ascended instantly, he couldn't evade them.
With metallic clinks, the three poison needles struck him, failing to penetrate the protection and instead snapping and falling to the ground.
The Power Armor crafted by Grey Wolf for Mo Jin had naturally been upgraded.
Aside from the riding spears, tail, feet, wings, and head, Mo Jin was wrapped in a thin layer of metal armor made from super titanium alloy, with extremely formidable defensive capabilities.
"Tch-tch, the eye even exploded; targeting weak points to attack, it's maxing out assassin Attributes, but sadly the Attack Power is a bit low."
The riding spear of the Great Needle Bee was exceedingly sharp and enhanced continuously as Mo Jin's strength grew.
But the riding spear at Tier Four still struggled to penetrate the Tier Five carapace's defense.
Otherwise, Mo Jin wouldn't have targeted the scorpion's eyes.
Hovering, adjusting his angle, this time, the Wind Skills' boosting buffs were fully stacked, then the Power Armor on his back opened over a dozen small jet ports, spewing pale blue exhaust flames.
In the next moment, he turned into a streak of light, descending from the sky, doubling the speed of the previous attack!
Almost in the blink of an eye, Mo Jin dived from 50 meters high to in front of the scorpion.
This time, the target was still the scorpion's eye.
Yet a layer of earthy yellow light surfaced on the scorpion, with chunks of stone appearing on its carapace.
At the same time, its two large pincers blocked its intact right eye, and three tails began to shoot countless poison needles.
With a crisp crack, two riding spears easily shattered the earthen stone blocks on the carapace, brushing aside the two large pincers.
But before Mo Jin could stab the spear into the opponent's eye, the scorpion opened its massive mouth, spraying out a dense venom.
At the critical moment, Mo Jin's wings gave a sudden vibration, and his body tilted slightly to the left, bypassing the venomous spray with only a hair's breadth.
The attack missed, yet Mo Jin remained undeterred. Naturally, hunting a target required patience, especially for an assassin like him who needed to patiently wait for the enemy to show a flaw and then deal a fatal blow.
As Mo Jin was about to pull up and ascend into the sky again, the ground quaked.
In the next moment, stone spears broke through the earth's restraint, shooting skyward, targeting the ascending Great Needle Bee.
With the continuous sound of "sizzle,"
By the time Mo Jin reached 50 meters high, his Energy Shield was full of holes, on the verge of shattering.
At the same time, the left leg of the Great Needle Bee had a half-foot-long gash cut by a spear's tip, with blood seeping from the wound and dripping in the air.
In this battle, Mo Jin eventually got hurt.
"Jin Jin, you're too careless. I told you the scorpion can manipulate Earth Power earlier."
In the end, an oversight led to a sneak attack and injury, although wounded, it wasn't fatal and didn't significantly affect Mo Jin's actions.
At that moment, the scorpion suddenly lifted its two large pincers and brought them heavily down upon the ground.
Dust flew up instantly, with Earth Power trembling the ground, raising a layer of dust that covered the ten-meter radius.
