Hanayuan Youyuan held her throbbing head with one hand and stared at the enemy.
If she couldn't use her spells and shikigami, she could only use her physical skills.
She threw the spell book at the black mist and took out the talisman paper that was still dripping with water from her pocket. She stuck the talisman paper on her shoes and fists.
The spell book was just a thick leather book without the support of spells. Naturally, it was bounced away by the black mist.
However, Hanayuan Youyuan took advantage of this opening to make ample preparations. She exerted force on her feet and with the help of the talisman paper, she shot forward like a spring and arrived in front of the black mist in the blink of an eye!
Her right foot cracked the hexagonal tiles on the ground like a pile driver. Her foot was firmly fixed in that position, and her body was tilted forward due to inertia.
Using the tremendous force generated by inertia and the full force of her right arm, the young girl's fist, which had the talisman stuck on it, smashed fiercely into the face of the black mist, forcefully blasting the black mist away for a long distance.
"Very good, I feel like I've hit something."
The moment she attacked, what Youyuan feared the most was that the enemy was a spirit-type monster that didn't have a physical body. Although the talisman paper she had prepared beforehand could deal a certain amount of damage to spirit-type monsters, that was only the damage the talisman paper brought. The power of her physical skills couldn't be used at all.
After confirming that her physical skills were effective against the enemy, Hanayuan Youyuan didn't give the enemy any time to breathe.
She pulled her foot out of the shattered bricks and dashed over again. She used her boxing technique without any intervals to launch a series of consecutive punches. At first glance, the enemy who was shrouded in the black fog seemed to have no power to fight back and was constantly being beaten up like a sandbag.
However, Hanayuan Youyuan understood that not only did the enemy retain a considerable amount of combat power, she even seemed to have a certain level of understanding of combat skills.
The girl's current Taijutsu originated from the fusion of Bajiquan and Liuhequan. Some Yin-Yang Masters would add Yin-Yang principles to it when they practiced. Although it wasn't as powerful as the original Bajiquan and didn't have as many variations as Liuhequan, it was more suitable for ordinary Yin-Yang Masters compared to the first two.
However, it was precisely because Bajiquan, as a model, was fierce and powerful, and Liuhe Quan was flexible and varied, that this set of martial arts had a rather high physical requirement for the user. Even if Hanakayuan Youyuan was confident that she wouldn't lose to men of the same age in terms of physical strength, she was still a little girl who wasn't even 18 years old. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to hold on for long before a flaw appeared in the chain of martial arts due to lack of physical strength.
If the enemy had seized that opportunity to counterattack, it would have dealt extraordinary damage. It would have been normal for Faraway to lose his ability to move.
Blossoming Courtyard Youyuan would not sit still and wait for death.
The best thing about physical arts was that it allowed one to quickly figure out the enemy's body structure. Just the combo just now had allowed the girl to see through the black mist and understand what kind of enemy she was facing.
Its appearance was similar to an enlarged version of a centipede. Its body was nearly five meters long, and it had an outer shell. It was extremely resistant to attacks, and …
"Cough …"
The girl suddenly pulled back and dodged the opponent's sudden tail whip. She jumped back three times in a row and barely escaped the opponent's attack range.
After that, she knelt on the ground on one knee and vomited a mouthful of dark red blood. Part of the blood had faintly turned dark green.
"Is it poisonous …"
Perhaps the black mist that the enemy had spread out wasn't meant to hide its true appearance, but purely to deal with the poison gas in close combat.
The opponent's body didn't have four limbs, so close combat was very disadvantageous for it.
At this point, Blossoming Courtyard Youyuan had more or less guessed the opponent's true identity.
It was a member of the Hundred Ghosts Nightwalker, a giant insect monster known as the 'Hundred Feet'.
It was said that the largest member of this monster could even wrap around a mountain if it spread its body.
Because the Hundred Feet was a family of the Earth Spiders, it also had an extremely powerful curse defense like the Earth Spiders. In addition, it had the exoskeleton that most insect monsters had, as well as its unique venom. For the current Youyuan, it was undoubtedly a troublesome enemy.
"Blossoming Courtyard Youyuan!" Chihaya, who didn't know how to intervene, couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he saw the girl vomit blood.
"It's alright, don't worry."
Blossoming Courtyard Youyuan struggled to stand up, but her body looked a little wobbly. "I'll buy you some time, Mayama-senpai, you run first … As long as you leave here, I'll naturally find a way to escape."
She was lying.
Chihaya, who had become very sensitive due to his past experience, immediately noticed the girl's lie.
Perhaps this girl, who was a year younger than him, was already mentally prepared to die here.
"Why do you have to go to this extent?" Chihaya couldn't understand.
"…"
Blossoming Courtyard Youyuan didn't answer, but instead took out a string of beads from somewhere and put it on her wrist.
"The Heavenly Lady of Lake Pipa, the Ghost Girl of Ao State's King of the Evil Road. Of my four souls, the Fortunate Soul is in front, the Desolate Soul is behind, the Harmony Soul is on the left, and the Strange Soul is on the right. I am eternally bound to the Underworld Wheel, willing to follow the orders of the Amaterasu Great God and return here as the Great God. I am — Suzaku Gozen!"
The three beads on the beads were clearly different from the others. They were pale gold, and as the girl chanted, they turned into transparent glass beads. The golden halos inside the beads flowed out of the beads, turning into three swords of light with swastikas imprinted on them, floating around the girl.
The girl's black hair also lost its color and turned snow-white. Her eyes lost their focus and it was as if her consciousness had completely disappeared …
This was Blossoming Courtyard Youyuan's final trump card, Divine Bestowal.
Using her four souls as the price, she asked the Great God of Suzaku to descend and fulfill her wish.
Just as this once-in-a-lifetime Divine Bestowal was about to be completed, a black sword mark suddenly appeared out of thin air and cut across Blossoming Courtyard Youyuan's body.
That was not a sword move, but a phenomenon caused by the space being cut apart.
For some reason, the moment this sword mark appeared, Suzuka Daming Kami, who was about to seize Hanayo Yuya's soul and possess her body, was like a mouse that saw a cat, and returned to Takama-ga-hara in an instant.
Without the Great God of Suzaku as the target of the prayer, the Divine Bestowal was naturally stopped.
Blossoming Courtyard Youyuan, who had all her strength drained, collapsed on the ground. She was at a loss as to what to do, together with Chihaya Fukayama, looked at the black sword mark on Blossoming Courtyard Youyuan's body.
Because the black sword mark had cut open the space, it had caused the space to become chaotic for a short period of time. The power of the space had forcibly imprisoned the originally insufferably arrogant Da Baizu, and it couldn't even move its tentacles.
Then, a voice came from the sword mark.
"Damn, I think I accidentally cut something. Mo Li, are the space coordinates you gave me really okay?"
