The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 747 - 308: All Birds Return to The Nest_2

To severely injure it in one blow one must either have a grasp of dangerously extreme skills, or surpass its current combat ability by two substages by a wide margin.

"Ever since arriving in this tomb, this great Immortal has faced setback after setback, never getting a break!"

With a spit, Goose Immortal, nearly flattened, burst into a fiery crimson battle spirit.

Though they are of the demon image tribe, they innately possess indestructible demon armors.

Their non-flesh body structures allow them to fear no pain and explode with even greater combat power.

But these clearly weren’t the normal Tri-Blade Demon Image or Giant Shield Demon Image.

There was no hint of emotion in their eyes, and they lacked consciousness.

The sweeping blades seemed to seal off every space for survival, calculating precisely every moment.

But upon closer inspection, there were invisible cracks all over the upper right corner of the towering shield.

The edges of the Tri-Blade Demon Image’s blades even showed some rust, as if corroded by time, unable to exert their full might.

"Have these two... fought with someone before?!"

"Two patients, all scarred, and they think they can put me to death?!"

Goose Immortal shrieked, flapping its wings with all its might.

In its bright and spirited eyes, a crimson flame of battle spirit burst forth.

This was "Mad Evil Baptism," a skill that sacrificed a bit of calmness for greater explosive power, damage reduction, and increased resistance.

Immediately after, Goose Immortal targeted the Tri-Blade Demon Image, which emitted a faint red battle spirit as if provoked, abandoning its pursuit of Huazhu and chopping at it instead.

"Come on, come on, the bloodbath I have longed for will be fully indulged today!"

Goose Immortal crossed its arms to block a blade with "Feather Shield."

This time it wasn’t sent flying, merely its shoulders sagged, barely catching it.

"Go big iron goose, you can do it!"

GuaGua, somehow on Goose Immortal’s shoulders, was ready with an "Instant Healing," always ready to sustain the Immortal’s combat ability.

It was cheering, but Goose Immortal seemed deaf to it, suddenly dodged, evaded the Tri-Blade Demon Image’s chase, stretched its iron wings to the sky in anger, and struck back, momentarily blocking Tri-Blade Demon Image, which roared and charged again.

In a dark corner, Ye Hanjun’s eyes were ablaze, constantly analyzing the current situation.

If not mistaken, Ye Man had once activated this level and had fought until death.

He didn’t survive the combined assault of the two demon images and met his doomed defeat.

But the wounds he inflicted wouldn’t truly heal over time.

This—was his, the newcomer’s, chance.

Although not aiming to reach the sixth stage’s peak, Ye Hanjun still had the opportunity to break through the blockade and reach the treasure at the path’s end.

"Boom boom boom!!"

The Giant Shield Demon Image charged, Goose Immortal, huge in stature, couldn’t dodge in time and was once again sent flying.

This time it coughed blood madly, the fresh blood spat out even mixed with fragments of its innards.

But its fighting spirit rose rather than fell, its strength increasing yet again.

When parrying the Tri-Blade Demon Image’s chop this time, its shoulders didn’t tremble anymore, the wing bones holding firm.

"Oh no!"

The fight was too intense, and GuaGua couldn’t hold onto Goose Immortal and accidentally flew off.

In the nick of time, it tucked its neck, dodging several swiftly swinging blades, blinking its eyes, even its cheeks puffing up slightly.

"Stupid big iron goose, nearly hurting me, I don’t care about you anymore!"

With a quick flicker, GuaGua shot over to Huazhu’s side, suddenly transforming into the guise of a Flying Witch, wings flashing like lightning, hovering in the air.

"Little Black Hat, let’s beat up that big lug!"

"Okay."

Huazhu nodded lightly, her vertical golden snake’s eyes shining brilliantly.

In an instant, a wind well over a hundred meters in diameter appeared in front of the Giant Shield Demon Image.

After a short buildup, the charging posture of the Giant Shield Demon Image was slightly impeded for a moment.

"It’s my turn now!"

GuaGua, transformed into a Flying Witch, was triumphantly eager.

With a wave of its hand, a wind well also emerged from the ground, a terrifying flow of air blasting from its center, once again impeding the Giant Shield Demon Image for a moment, slowing its speed further.

"Cross-Cut Current."

Huazhu softly chanted, and five hundred meters ahead, the air’s flow divided into two extremes.

It was like two conveyor belts, one heading south, the other north, each operating at maximum power.

If one passed from either side, they could move along with the direction.

But if someone tried to forcefully breach the cross-section, the shear of the air would be akin to the breaking of space.

If the challenger was weak, they would be instantly sliced into countless pieces, their blood and flesh splattering far and wide.

"Roar!!"

The Giant Shield Demon Image, fearless, knew nothing of avoidance.

After a brief slowdown, it forcibly broke through the Cross-Cut Current, again overcoming Huazhu’s obstruction.

But the entanglement didn’t stop there, as Huazhu was clearly still rigid from casting, unable to activate this skill continuously.

The second Cross-Cut Current appeared, once again stopping the Giant Shield Demon Image in its tracks.

"Roar!!!"

The Giant Shield Demon Image was seemingly taken aback, accidentally shedding several pieces the size of fingernails from its shield.

"Little Black Hat, use the big move!"

"We aim for its shield, concentrate on one point, and show it the power of unity!"

GuaGua shook Huazhu’s arm, like a mischievously clever twin sister pleading for her sister to show off her might.
