Chapter 369: Stronger together Part3
The six lava salamanders quickly waddled over to the dead beast, looking around and extremely alert.
Some of them even started to breathe fire left and right, trying to figure out if an enemy was hidden amongst them.
Tang Yue knew that she could no longer take them by surprise.
She slithered closer to another salamander who was busily looking around and plunged her fangs once again into the beast’s neck.
But this time, she was immediately caught.
Even though the one she had bit yelped in pain and twitched around before it became paralyzed, the others one started blasting her long slender body with bursts of flame.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several roars echoed and Tang Yue was being scorched alive, but unfortunately for the lava salamanders, that did not even tickle her.
“Thanks for the warm-up guys!” She hissed and morphed into her human form to slash at the next salamander.
She targeted the beast’s head and upper body which were the weaker parts of its body, but the salamander quickly shook its head, instantly extending its scales to its head as well.
Tang Yue’s sword then clashed onto its hard scales, a loud clanging noise ringing in the air.
“Damn it.”
And to make things worse, once the salamanders realized that their fire elemental attacks were not affecting her, they started lashing at her with their tails while continuing to spew out fires.
Tang Yue summoned Little Plum and then activated silver skin.
Little Plum spun around in its elemental form attracting the attention of two of the five salamanders but that still left Tang Yue three beasts to deal with at the same time.
She dodged their attacks continuously while thinking of a good game plan when suddenly her feet paused and she stopped dodging their attacks.
She evaded their tail lashes but when the next lava salamander snapped at her with its mouth, Tang Yue let it have a bite.
“So how do I taste?” She chuckled, slashing down at the other two who were attacking her.
Her leg where the salamander had bit her only had a bite mark registered with faint bleeding thanks to her silver skin skill, but the other party was not doing as good.
The salamander who had snapped at her intending to take a huge bite out of her thin leg now laid still on the ground, frothing and lifeless.

Tang Yue grinned on seeing the notification.
She guessed that this might happen because her silver skin skill had combined with her venomous scales skill when she had gained it.
Also, these specific lava salamanders were only mid-grade beasts and not high-grade beasts like the frogs or the golden titan ape.
So she wouldn’t lose out much if she took an attack or two head-on.
She had no doubt that she would be able to withstand it, unlike when she was fighting with a high-grade beast where she couldn’t afford to take even a single hit.
However, Tang Yue was still hesitant to try out this plan because she was not a fan of being bitten, but when the opponent wanted to commit suicide so badly who was she to stop them.
“Come bite me and die you jerks!” She hissed and fought with the two remaining lava salamanders.
Little Plum who was still managing the two salamanders beside Tang Yue, was also doing better than she had expected.
These fire-type battles were significantly helping the elemental grow and it was digesting more and more of the heavenly flame that it had swallowed wholly.
Thanks to the fragment of the heavenly flame, Little Plum’s fire bullets were also stronger and had a higher intensity and power compared to the lava salamander’s flame.
The beast was taking damage every time a bullet hit its body covered by scales.
Little Plum on the other hand remained in its elemental form buzzing around and easily dodging the salamanders’ attacks.
“How is it that you are still improving at a faster pace than me???” Tang Yue hissed, pouting lightly.
She knew that the beasts won’t dare to bite her directly again and so she teamed up with Little Plum combining their fights together.
She dismissed her soul sword and quickly materialized several sharp earthen spikes and shot them out on the four salamanders surrounding her and Little Plum.
She aimed the spiked to especially hit the places where Little Plum had managed to damage the scales covering their body.
Little Plum as well immediately understood Tang Yue’s intentions without even her explicit instructions and started coordinating with her.
The two of them had worked together plenty of times and so they were in good sync.
Meanwhile, Tang Yue also used her Venom spit every now and then and tried to target the beast’s eyes which were still exposed.
The beasts quickly shut their eyes, blocking the venom with their scales, but they were not able to keep up with the other attacks while simultaneously defending against the venom raining down on them.
Soon, in front of the duo’s overwhelming strength, the four remaining lava salamanders had no other choice but to drop down dead, one by one.

“Perfect. Let’s now absorb their souls and get the hell out of here to regroup and recuperate.” She panted and quickly activated her Soul Parasite skill.
She then tossed the seven corpses into her spatial ring and dismissed Little Plum, slithering away from the scene of the battle as quickly as she could.
Tang Yue then joined the other snakes and they moved away to a secluded area on the outer edges of the hills where they had previously cleared out a herd of low-grade salamanders.
