The "Sky Feather" transformed into a giant snake and swallowed the girl whole.
Yakushi wanted to proceed with the next step, but … he couldn't feel anything.
Even though he had successfully imprisoned her, he couldn't feel anything. This was quite strange.
Yakushi tried to cast a spell, but he suddenly discovered that he had lost control of the giant snake!
The giant snake then froze in midair. Its pitch-black body suddenly shattered, and a cold bluish-white light shone from within.
A mystical sound could be heard. It sounded like a distant song that contained a chill that seemed capable of penetrating one's soul.
Yakushi felt threatened.
He decisively created a second Sky Feather spiritual sword in his hand. He unhesitatingly shot out a powerful sword projection at the collapsing giant snake!
The spiritual sword projection pierced through the giant snake. Its collapsing body suddenly exploded, and a large amount of black mist exploded out!!
A blue light flashed within the mist.
The mystical song stopped.
Yakushi instantly felt like he was completely surrounded by an abnormal chill. He was about to dodge when he saw a flash of light …
Destruction curse, "Thousand Year Ice"!
A large number of blue ice pillars suddenly shot into the sky like a tsunami, completely engulfing Yakushi's body!!
"Cough, cough …"
Yakushi's telekinesis clone was destroyed for the second time. Yakushi's main body suffered yet another backlash.
This backlash was even more severe than the first time. It was probably caused by the special power contained in the spell that destroyed the telekinesis clone.
Fortunately, it was still within acceptable limits.
Yakushi adjusted his eyeglasses. He became even more interested in the blue-clothed girl.
It seemed that he would have to be more violent in order to capture her.
Just as he was thinking about what to do next, he suddenly sensed something and turned around. He saw a figure wearing hunting clothes …
"Caught you," Seiji said coldly to Yakushi.
The next instant, a gigantic golden bell appeared in midair …
Sealing spell, "Demon Suppression Formation"!
* Dong! * There was an earth-shattering sound as the bell descended and enveloped Yakushi. It glowed brightly as a large pentagram spell formation appeared! Golden pillars of light rose from each corner of the pentagram. The golden pillars connected with each other and released countless mystical runes that filled the entire area!!
"Demons of the world, suppress …"
"Evils of the world, stop …"
"Evil spirits of the world, destroy …"
"In the name of the gods, with my will, I shall break your spell …"
Seiji formed a seal with both hands and uttered an incantation. He coldly increased the power of his spell to the maximum …
"Destruction of spell! The Brilliant Light End! Those who exorcise evil shall ascend to heaven!!! "
A huge golden-white pillar of light soared into the sky, releasing a holy and blazing halo!
It was over … not at all.
In the next second, a grayish-black figure forcibly broke through the beam of light, instantly shooting many black beams in Seiji's direction!
Seiji dodged to the side, the black light continuously erupting into thick black fog behind him!
Then, a black wave of air slashed down from the top of his head like a huge sword! Seiji couldn't avoid it, so he summoned the White Lotus Spirit Saber to meet it.
Boom!!! The black mist and the golden light collided fiercely, resulting in a huge shockwave.
Then, there were violent and concentrated sounds in the light mist. The two figures clashed with their swords, bursting out more black mist and scattering more intense light.
In the end, the two of them exchanged blows, and both of them were sent flying backward, putting some distance between them.
The hunting clothes on Seiji's upper body were cut open, and a black mist was vaguely emitting from it.
In front of him was Apothecary, who had already changed his appearance.
The white coat and other clothes he wore were gone, his glasses were gone, and his head was bald. His entire body was gray, and he was covered in dense black scales. He looked like a human-shaped snake … in other words, a snake-man.
Faint black mist constantly emitted from Naga Apothecary's body, and there was a white scar from his left chest to the right side of his waist — it was left by Seiji, and it was rapidly healing.
"Not bad," Apothecary said. "But you should've used twice as much strength just now."
"That will happen next." Seiji replied, "But what else can you transform into? It's best if you transform now, or else you won't have the chance later."
"Transforming like this isn't easy, and you need to reach a certain state … Simply put, it's not enough warm-up exercises," Apothecary said as he moved his neck and hands, making cracking sounds.
"Since you haven't exercised enough, then you might as well not move at all, forever."
Seiji raised his spirit saber.
Apothecary raised his spirit sword.
The two of them coldly glared at each other. The atmosphere gradually became tense to the extreme.
Just as both of them were about to fiercely attack each other, a voice that didn't sound nervous at all suddenly spoke up …
"Stop, Uncle Apothecary."
This voice caused both of their expressions to change slightly.
They then simultaneously looked to their right and saw a hazy black figure appear out of thin air.
"Now isn't the time for such things. Hurry up and return. Your beloved subordinate is looking for you ~" The black figure spoke as if he was coaxing a puppy home.
Apothecary furrowed his eyebrows.
His expression was rather strange as he frowned in his current state. It was impossible to tell what he was currently feeling.
Seiji could choose to take this opportunity to attack. However, Seiji didn't do so. Instead, he silently watched.
After a period of silence, Apothecary glanced at Seiji once more before putting down his spirit sword.
His body then began to swiftly dissipate into mist. Not long after, he completely disappeared.
He actually left just like that … Seiji remained on guard as he looked at the black figure again.
"Although I can't see your face, you should be my Haruta bro," the black figure, Itsuki Kamitani, spoke up.
Seiji didn't admit or deny this.
"Although I'd like to ask why you're here, I can more or less guess what's going on. That's because I gave you that information." Kamitani chuckled. "You did better than I expected. As expected of my Haruta bro."
Seiji remained silent.
"I apologize for giving you so much trouble, Uncle Apothecary," Kamitani continued. "Don't be fooled by his appearance. He's actually a good person."
He was actually a good person … Seiji felt like this was a joke, the type that couldn't be laughed at.
In response, he silently aimed his sword at the black figure.
"Don't be angry. As compensation, I'll tell you information about Kirin … whoops, I mean Grand Mistress Haruta. How's that?"
Information about Yui!?
Something flashed in Seiji's eyes as he slowly lowered his sword.
"I knew that you'd want to know." Kamitani chuckled. "Grand Mistress probably didn't have time to tell you anything.
She's currently in the Realm of Cherry Blossoms. Her location and condition are unknown, but she's definitely alive and well.
However, it'll be hard to say if more time passes. After all, she's currently in a terrible situation. It's hard to say how long she'll last.
You won't be able to help her, but someone else can.
I'm going to go find that person, but I'm currently rather busy and have other things to do. That's why I'll have to wait. "
Seiji instantly guessed what Kamitani was going to say next after saying this.
"The longer you wait, the worse Grand Mistress's situation will be. If you want that person to help Grand Mistress sooner, then go find him for me, my Haruta bro, "Kamitani said happily. "His code name is' Voidfire '. Just like Uncle Apothecary, he's a good person ~"
