Chapter 247 Difficult Battle, Death of the Palace Master
According to the skill information learned from the deputy palace master, although the 'Yin Yang Talisman - Ninghui Nirvana' can make the shikigami extremely powerful, it does so at the expense of overdrafting the shikigami's original vitality.
After using this skill for a certain period of time, the shikigami will die due to exhaustion of life force.
If you want to summon the shikigami again, you have to spend double the time to warm up.
Therefore, the best tactic right now is to delay.
As long as you can withstand the attack of the three shikigami, and when the shikigami's vitality is exhausted, you can win without a fight.
There are two friendly bosses present, one is a great monster who has lived for countless years, and the other is a famous ninja master.
Of course, they all understand the power and effects of Onmyoji's forbidden techniques, and they also know how to deal with them.
If it were normal times, it would be enough to avoid the battle temporarily, but now that the entire palace city is shrouded in the "definite boundary guarding the ten directions", where can they escape?
[You and the ‘Shipwreck Mage’ and ‘Ninja Master’ look at each other, and both of you know what you think. 】
[Facing the menacing three violent shikigami, the 'shipwrecked mage' roared and took the lead to step forward to resist the attack...]
[The ‘Ninja Master’ once again hid his figure and disappeared. 】
[You raise your staff and recite the incantation silently...]
[Pure white knowledge gratings rise around the ‘shipwrecked mage’. With your huge amount of knowledge, you can only barely cover half of its body with the grating. 】
[Furthermore, after the knowledge grating is forcibly expanded, the white light becomes dim, the spell fluctuations become thin, and the defensive capabilities are mostly reduced...]
[The 'New Woman' raised its thick and sharp jointed limbs, and instantly penetrated the defense of the knowledge grating, leaving a hideous wound on the body of the 'Shipwrecked Mage'. 】
[‘Katsutengu’ and ‘Rakshasa’ also launched a fierce attack on the ‘shipwrecked mage’…]
[Even though the ‘shipwrecked mage’ is powerful, it cannot withstand the crazy attacks of the three shikigami. For a while, it fell into a precarious situation. 】
【……】
Both the president and the ninja master are strong-attacking and weak-defending professions. They are the kind of crispy chickens who will fall to their knees at the first touch.
Therefore, the shipwreck mage can only bear the responsibility of the front row. However, the shipwreck mage looks huge, but in fact it is also a monster of the legal system.
It is proficient in sorcery attacks, but not good at close combat. It is really difficult for the Shipwrecked Mage to resist the offensive of the three shikigami.
The ninja master who is not good at confronting the enemy can only draw his sword when the shipwrecked mage is in extreme danger.
Use an attack-for-attack method to withstand a fatal blow, and then immediately escape and become invisible to prevent being targeted by the three shikigami.
Lin Xun used the 'Knowledge Grating' several times to protect the shipwrecked mage, and found that after the skill's protection range was expanded, the defensive ability was sharply reduced, and it could not play a significant role in reducing damage under the powerful attack of the shikigami.
He simply released the 'Happy Smoke Vision' to control the monster and delay it.
【You open a pink eye!】
[Special skill ‘Happy Smoke Vision’, activated! 】
[The huge body of the black spider ‘The New Wife’ suddenly stiffened, and its raised thick jointed limbs stopped in mid-air! 】
[You feel a little tired...]
[Just when the ‘Luo Bride’ was motionless, a poignant sword light flashed past! 】
Lin Xun almost gave the ninja master a thumbs up.
What is a good teammate and what is tacit cooperation? The ninja master with rich combat experience perfectly interprets it.
[The poignant sword light was about to pierce through the huge body of ‘Luo Xinfu’, but the power of Long Yin emerged from it! 】
[The spider shikigami woke up instantly, with cilia all over his body standing on end, and suddenly thrust his limbs into the sword light...]
[A short figure appeared, and the 'Ninja Master' twisted around in mid-air, barely escaping the fatal blow. It tapped the spider shikigami's thick limbs with its toes, changed direction, and landed on the ground. 】
[The short figure turned around and disappeared again.]
[Only the faint sound of coughing is left in the air...]
The situation on the battlefield was unpredictable. Just when Lin Xun thought that the ninja master could inflict heavy damage on the Shikigami monster, the 'Luo Xinfu' used the control magic to resolve the 'Happy Smoke Vision'.
Not only that, the big spider who regained consciousness almost killed the ninja master.
Big monsters such as the 'Kurotengu' and 'The New Lady' all have the 'Dream Awakening' magic, and the 'Happy Smoke Vision' can only control them for a very short period of time.
Although the ninja master escaped, the hidden damage caused by the knife became more and more serious.
On the battlefield, the Shipwrecked Mage was covered in wounds. If it hadn't been for the injured Ninja Master's support, it would have been in serious danger.
According to the current situation, long before the vitality of the three shikigami is exhausted, Lin Xun's party will be wiped out due to the fall of the shipwrecked mage.
"I can't control that much anymore! Just expose it if you expose it!"
Seeing that his side had no chance of winning, Lin Xun did not care about the subsequent task of rescuing the senior sister.
If you don't use your full strength at this time, both the ninja master and the shipwrecked mage will be killed. When everything is irreversible, it will be too late!
[You take out the 'fine copper sand mallet' and shake it slowly...]
[The ‘Three-Headed Lion of Sinking’ roared and turned into dots and disappeared. 】
[‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ walks from the void! 】
[Under your command, she quickly drew out the arrow, sang a complex and beautiful melody, aimed at the 'Rakshasa' and charged up the bow...]
[You are possessed by the body of the ‘fallen earth giant’! 】
[In the astonished gazes of the 'Shipwreck Mage' and 'Ninja Master', your small body is strong in the wind, and in the blink of an eye you become a tall giant standing tall and tall! 】
[Although your huge body is not comparable to the three shikigami, nor can it be compared with the 'shipwrecked mage', as long as your feet are pressed against the ground, a steady stream of power will flow into your body, causing your body to bulge.
The muscles all over the body are bulging...]
[Due to the effect of ‘Metamorphic Sumeru Mustard Seed’, the weapon in your hand has changed to the size of a suitable body! 】
[You hold up the giant sword ‘Uzuki Onikiri’ and stride forward to block the fatal claw of ‘Katsutengu’ for ‘Shipwreck Mage’. 】
[The true form of the Yokai Shikigami is extremely fierce, and with the blessing of forbidden arts, the attack of the 'Karasu Tengu' is even more powerful.]
[You were knocked back several steps by this claw, feeling severe pain in the tiger's mouth and a tightness in your chest.]
[At this time, you realize how difficult it is for the ‘shipwrecked mage’ to persist for so long with one against three...]
【……】
Lin Xun gritted his teeth and activated all the skills of the Earth Giant, and together with the "Shipwreck Mage" resisted the three shikigami.
Even so, under the crazy offensive of the three shikigami, Lin Xunfang was still at a disadvantage.
Although the situation at this time is at a disadvantage, it can still be managed. As long as the battle situation continues and the Valkyrie is fully charged, the situation of the battle may be reversed.
"You must hold on!"
[The 'Palace Master of Fire Worshiping Ixie Palace' is still hiding in the unbreakable boundary. It looks at the Valkyrie behind the battlefield and reveals an evil smile. 】
[The Palace Master of Yixie Palace took out a thick stack of bright yellow talisman papers, shook the imperial string in his hand slightly, and recited the incantation silently. 】
[Groups of pitch-black karma fire emerged out of thin air, and the dense fire mass resembled a curtain of rain, attacking the Valkyrie at the rear of the battlefield...]
The weapon of 'Apollo's Bow' has powerful skills, but it cannot be moved while charging.
And if you suffer damage while in the charged state, your skills will be interrupted, and the damage will be doubled!
Valkyrie had to stop charging and fly into the air to avoid the attack of Karma Fire.
The Lord of Yixie Palace frequently casts spells to attack the Valkyrie, making it impossible for her to use her weapon skills.
Since she was temporarily unable to use her weapon skills, Valkyrie did not dare to waste her only three powerful arrows.
It would be a tragedy if she didn't have powerful arrows to use when she needed to make the final decision.
However, the power of ordinary arrows is not a strong threat to the three shikigami. If you can hide, just hide. If you can't, just resist.
Now that the 'Lantern of the Abyss' is still in the Valkyrie's 'Red Candle Sword Box', Lin Xun cannot use the 'Lantern of the Abyss' to attract firepower and create output space for the Valkyrie.
Even if you have the 'Lantern of the Abyss' in your hand, if you let the three youkai shikigami focus on you, you won't be able to hold on for long before you see the word 'vegetable'.
The current battle situation is still at a disadvantage for his side, but as long as he continues to persevere, the final victory will definitely belong to him.
[The attacks of the three shikigami became more and more fierce, and they even ignored the attacks and adopted a desperate strategy of exchanging injuries for injuries. 】
[You and the ‘Shipwreck Mage’ feel unprecedented pressure! 】
[The evil ghost ‘Rakshasa’ suddenly abandons you and attacks the ‘shipwrecked mage’ instead. 】
[It allows you to swing your sword and smash your stick, and resists your attacks with its armored back, but it frantically swings its sharp blade at the 'Shipwreck Mage'! 】
[The scarred ‘shipwrecked mage’ had been struggling to hold on, but was suddenly besieged by three shikigami and was immediately unbearable. 】
[I saw that just as it resisted the arthropod stabbing attack of the 'Associated New Lady', a large piece of skin and flesh was torn off by the sharp claws of the 'Black Tengu'. 】
[The 'Ninja Master' appeared in the air and waved his dragon sword to block the bite of the 'Luo Bride''s fangs. When he landed, he was coughing up blood and looked exhausted. ]
[The ‘shipwrecked mage’ just breathed a sigh of relief when he was pierced through the chest by the sharp knife of ‘Rakshasa’ behind him. 】
[‘The traceable shipwrecked mage’ suffered a near-fatal injury! 】
"No! If this continues, the shipwrecked mage will die!"
As soon as the Shipwrecked Mage dies, the team will be wiped out immediately.
At this moment, Lin Xun had countless thoughts flashing through his mind.
He decisively gave orders to Valkyrie!
[‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ put back her long bow and took out a strange lantern made of flesh and blood. 】
[The weak warm light of the lantern attracted the attention of the three shikigami. They left behind the 'shipwrecked mage' and ran towards the Valkyrie...]
[The Valkyrie flapped her wings and flew to the top of the giant barrier, but she was still within the attack range of the three shikigami.]
[She flew at extremely high speeds, dodging the attacks of the two shikigami, but was struck by the sharp knife of 'Rakshasa' on the fine copper wings on her back.]
[The Valkyrie whined and fell sideways. You strode forward suddenly and stretched out a hand, and the tiny person fell into your palm. 】
[You put the Valkyrie on the ground and stood up. The 'Ancient Dragon Tooth Club' in your hand disappeared, and then a giant flesh lantern appeared. 】
[The three shikigami immediately rush toward you crazily, and even the master of Yixie Palace attacks you with spells...]
If the shikigami are crazy, they are fighting for their lives. Although the face of the palace master of Ixie Palace does not show any anxiety, he is also frequently casting spells and attacks.
It can be seen that the vitality of the shikigami is about to be exhausted...
This also means that the battle has reached its final moment!
"Victory or defeat depends on this!"
Lin Xun opened the inventory and clicked on the dusty prop.
['High-energy particle shield generating device' (epic-level prop):...Using this prop can provide you with full-body protection. You will not be harmed until the energy of the generating device is exhausted!] (from
Chapter 131, gift from male boss)
[The silver metal wristband appears on the giant's wrist. Facing the menacing three shikigami, you press the only button on the wristband. 】
[‘Zizi’ electric current sounds, and a layer of blue protective layer visible to the naked eye appears on the giant’s body. 】
[Countless high-energy particles are produced, ionizing the air around the giant, forming a blue ionized layer, which can resist various energy attacks. 】
[Outside of the azure energy shield, another layer of purple-red protective layer emerged, making the surroundings of the giant extremely hot and the air slightly steaming and distorted. 】
[Countless high-heat plasma is generated, forming a purple-red protective layer with an extremely high temperature, which can instantly vaporize physical attacks attacking you. 】
[The current remaining energy of the device: 99.9%]
[The three shikigami only have a little warm light from the 'Lamp of the Abyss' in their eyes. They rush towards you crazily, and all kinds of powerful attacks come like raindrops. 】
【……】
[The current remaining energy of the device: 77.6%]
【……】
[The current remaining energy of the device: 52.8%]
[The crazy attacks of the shikigami cannot penetrate the high-heat plasma protective layer around your body. Several shikigami were even severely burned during the attack, and their skin was burnt black. 】
[They stopped attacking and, driven by the 'Palace Master of Yixie Palace', began to perform black magic and ghost magic...]
[Spells of various colors attack you, penetrating the purple-red protective layer, but are blocked by the blue energy shield. 】
[The current remaining energy of the device: 32.9%]
【……】
[The current remaining energy of the device: 11.2%]
[The frequency of the shikigami releasing spells is getting slower and slower, and the palace master of Yixie Palace who is constantly releasing karma fire spells in the distance also has a look of despair on his face. 】
[The current remaining energy of the device: 2.1%]
[The huge figure of 'Rakshasa' suddenly stiffened, turned into a swirling black air, steamed crazily, and then dissipated...]
[The enemy ‘Evil Ghost Shikigami Rakshasa’ is dead!]
[‘Luo Xinwu’ lunged forward, its chelicerae spread out to reveal its fangs, but it fell powerlessly in mid-air. 】
[The black spider's half-female form looks towards you with its affectionate eyes that gradually turn vicious. It screams miserably, then its eyes become distracted and it makes no sound anymore. 】
[The enemy’s ‘Yōkai Shikigami: Nyobi’ is dead! 】
[The ‘Kurotengu’ flaps its black crow wings on its back, and its sharp claws flash with cold light. It shatters the shield on your body, but is unable to attack you again. 】
[You hold the giant sword ‘Uzuki Onikiri’ and use all your strength to sweep across it. 】
[Blood splattered everywhere, the bird-shaped head rolled down, and the headless dog demon's body fell to the ground and twitched...]
[The enemy ‘Yōkai Shikigami, Karastengu’ is dead! 】
[The huge corpses of the two monsters turned into billowing black smoke and disappeared.]
[Only the ‘Palace Master of Yixie Palace’ who is still in ‘Guarding the Absolute Realm of the Ten Directions’ is left.]
[It slumped to the ground in disbelief, its eyes blank... It knew that after losing its shikigami, even if it had the protection of the ultimate realm, it would eventually be unable to escape death. 】
[The Valkyrie behind you helps up the ‘Ninja Master’, and the two of them are limping towards you...]
[The ‘Shipwrecked Mage’ also struggled to hold up his body and wriggled his belly and legs to approach the Palace Master...]
【……】
【……】
[After breaking through the ‘Absolute Boundary Guarding the Ten Directions’, you returned to normal human size, took the lead and pierced the heart of the ‘Palace Master of Yixie Palace’ with a knife. 】
[It did not resist, fell to the ground, and murmured to itself: More than a hundred years of human life are nothing compared to heaven and earth...]
[You defeated the ‘Palace Master of Ixie Palace’ who worshiped fire, and your experience points increased tremendously! 】
[The power within the body begins to boil, and the body level of the ‘President of the Knowledge-Seeking Direct Gaze Association’ increases. The current body level is: 61]
[You have obtained ‘Aoyan’s unpredictable weak spirituality’*1]
[You have obtained the ‘Suppressing Demons and Expelling Evils’ (epic weapon)!]
[You have obtained the ‘Brilliant Killing Stone’ (legendary item)]
[You have obtained the ‘Bai Yin Guishui Aquarius’ (special prop)]
[You have obtained the ‘Absolute Token of the Castle Tower’ (key)]
[You obtained the ‘Letter from the Daimyo Ogiwara Family’ (data)]
[You look at the corpse of the Palace Master lying on the ground...]
['Palace Master of Yixie Palace who Worships Fire': The old palace master accidentally obtained the yin and yang magic, and needed to absorb a lot of virgin yin energy to 'rejuvenate'. Unfortunately, the magic can only restore youth on the outside, but it still remains internally
It is a decayed and old organ. It died from a fatal blow that penetrated the heart. Correspondence: 126% (55%)]
【Do you want to possess this body? 】
Lin Xun let out a long sigh of relief.
"It's not easy. I finally overthrew this big BOSS..."
