The purple-eyed monster spun the halberd in his hand again, and the tornado mixed with cold water drops surged towards Xia Qiu, forming an aura that wanted to completely extinguish her spiritual fire.
Xia Qiu continued to dodge left and right, but was soon forced to have no way to escape by this tornado. Following the idea that had just flashed in her mind, she suddenly descended towards the lake and used her plum blade to stir up a huge wave on the lake. She imagined in her mind that the huge wave could condense into a barrier. The water waves touched by the plum blade were also tainted with her pink flames, and quickly burned into a sea of fire. The wall of water and fire coexisting rose from the lake, blocking the tornado created by the purple-eyed monster. Outside.
Seeing that Tatsumaki's move had lost its effect on her, the purple-eyed monster began to think of other moves. He also suddenly descended and inserted the bottom end of the halberd into the lake water. In an instant, the extremely cold air began to spread, and ice suddenly formed on the lake. There were countless crystals like sharp knives that continued to protrude upward, spreading straight towards Xia and Qiu. She tried to escape into the air, but the knife-shaped crystals on the lake followed her and flew up, stabbing her one after another.
She soon understood that unless she gave up the battle, she would have to approach the lake again and attack the purple-eyed monster to have a chance to prevent him from continuing to use this technique to attack her. But when she tried to descend, she found that the closer she was to the lake, the faster she was attacked by knife-shaped crystals. She couldn't resist it before she reached the lake. She kept reminding herself to be calm. With the method she just realized to create a wall with lake water, she seemed to have a deeper understanding of this battle between spirits.
As long as the willpower is determined, it seems that anything can be made in this world.
She firmly believed that the horse flute that Ouyang Xueye gave her that could summon dragonflies was still hanging around her neck, so she reached out and touched it and it was indeed there. She picked up the horse flute and put it to her lips, exhaling gently, and the familiar melody of the horse flute sounded in the air.
A horse's cry came from far away, and the dragonfly, also surrounded by pink flames, rushed to her in the blink of an eye. She didn't know why she suddenly wanted to summon a dragonfly, but she thought it was probably because dragonflies, like Ouyang Xueye's Diaoyan, were both called spirit horses by him. This kind of creature that only existed in the infinite heaven might also have its own characteristics. Has the ability to separate souls. The reason why she felt this way was because it seemed from the dragonfly's eyes that it still had its own consciousness.
When the dragonfly rushed to Xia Qiu, it jumped into the air, riding on the breeze, and suddenly flew under her body and let her ride on his back. Then he understood her intention without her giving any instructions, turned around and rushed in the direction of the purple-eyed monster. Its four hooves fell back to the ice, and carried Xia Qiu to lightly avoid the knife-shaped crystals that were constantly protruding on the ice. Those crystals that came from mid-air were cut off by Xia Qiu with her plum blade.
The purple-eyed monster looked up again and found that the girl riding a spirit horse had attacked him. He calmly picked up his halberd from the ice and stabbed her in the chest. He thought that the length of the plum blade in her hand would definitely give him a chance to win, but she, who had already mastered the use of spiritual fire, suddenly made her plum blade grow and surpass the length of his halberd. However, at the slightest moment, he had no choice but to fly backwards.
In the battle with the purple-eyed monster, this was the first time Xia Qiu forced him to give up the attack and choose to retreat instead, which doubled her confidence. Riding the dragonfly to pursue the situation, he continuously launched fierce attacks on the purple-eyed monster with huge plum blades. He seemed to be shocked by her sudden aura, and for a moment he was in a panic and didn't know how to deal with it.
Xia Qiu took the opportunity to feint a shot. He first pretended to attack from the left, but in fact, he suddenly slashed diagonally at the purple-eyed monster with his plum blade from the right. Xia Qiu's power vibrated and fell to the lake.
The ice previously formed on the lake had almost melted and could not bear the weight of the halberd, so the halberd quickly sank into the lake water. Xia Qiu originally thought that he would be sure of victory in this way, but he overlooked one point. Since he could create weapons with his imagination, naturally the purple-eyed monster could also do the same.
Sure enough, he calmly used his black mist-like spiritual fire to create a big knife. Not only that, he also whistled, and a horse stronger than a dragonfly was surrounded by black flames. Many spiritual horses swept over like a dark cloud.
The purple-eyed monster flew onto the horse, and first confronted Xia Qiu on the horse for a while, and then began to chase her. The power of the black horse was extremely powerful. Even though its hooves were running in the air, it still made Xia Qiu feel that the whole world was shaking with it. She didn't know the true strength of the black horse, so she had to avoid its pursuit.
For a moment, she and the purple-eyed monster rode their own spiritual horses and started chasing each other in the sky, on the ground, on the lake, and even in the clouds. Xia Qiu had never engaged in a similar horse battle with the enemy before, so she was a little confused at the beginning, and therefore timid. She had no other choice but to use circuitous and circular strategies to try to get rid of the opponent. But such blind escape only accelerated the consumption of Lingma's power. In addition to its own spiritual power, Lingma's power also contained Xia Qiu's spiritual power. Fatigue gradually hit Xia Qiu and Dragonfly, and they struggled with the purple-eyed monster. The distance is also continuously shortened.
She knew that if things continued like this, they would be overtaken by him soon, so she began to think of countermeasures. Because she believed that the dragonfly under her was not created out of thin air, but had a will of its own, she leaned down and said to it: "Dragonfly, if you can understand me, find a way to get around that dark horse." Go behind!"
The dragonfly chirped loudly as if it was responding to what she said, but also as if it was cheering itself up. It suddenly increased its speed and pulled the black horse some distance away, then suddenly changed direction and turned to one side. Before the black horse could react and follow it, it turned around again and finally got behind the black horse.
Xia Qiu worked hard to control the fire of spiritual power at the same time, using his mind to transform the plum blade in his hand into a bow. While recalling Ouyang Xueye's teachings to her these days, she drew an arrow from the quiver imagined on her back with her hand, then she set up the bow, hooked the bowstring and aimed at the purple-eyed monster, and finally let go of the arrow decisively. The whole process happens in one go within five seconds.
"Whoosh"
The arrow from the string drew a pink line in the air, heading straight towards the target that Xia Qiu imagined on the back of the purple-eyed monster, and stabbed firmly into the bullseye.
"Ah!" The purple-eyed monster began to groan due to the pain caused by the arrow. The pain caused by the damage to its spiritual power was comparable to the real-life injury, or even worse.
Although the feather arrow formed by spiritual power quickly disappeared, Xia Qiu had already set up another feather arrow before that. But the purple-eyed monster will never let her win so easily. In fact, flying has a greater advantage for him who has wings than riding a horse. He just felt a kind of ferocious beast towards the girl in front of him. The prey is already destined to arrive. He had the mentality of playing games first before choosing to play a horse fight with her. At this moment, he finally realized that if he didn't take it seriously, it would be difficult to deal with this seemingly weak little girl in front of him.
He never expected that how could she, who had no idea about soul separation when she was in Xuanmiao Palace the day before and was so weak during the separation, acquire such extraordinary strength in such a short period of time? ! She guessed that someone must have given her guidance. Even so, her own understanding and creativity must be extremely high. If such an enemy is not eradicated immediately, there will definitely be endless troubles.
The purple-eyed monster flapped the black wings behind him vigorously. When the back muscles moved, the pain in the area injured by Xia Qiu reached its limit, but in this way he became accustomed to and numbed the pain. Between the two of them, the advantage that Xia Qiu had just occupied was completely broken. In an instant, he and she returned to the original situation. The seven-colored moonlight was once again obscured by darkness. She kept running on the dragonfly, but she was still unable to escape from that place. Darkness comes from all directions.
Countless feather arrows were shot at Xia Qiu. The purple-eyed monster once again transformed into the same weapon as hers, but his bow was much larger, and the number of feather arrows shot at the same time far exceeded hers. The dragonfly led Xia Qiu in a desperate dash, first bypassing the heat emitted by the volcano on Chizhao Island, then walking through the countless livestock on Chengshan Island, then galloping through the thousands of acres of fields on Lvli Island, and finally stopped. In the open space where the wine vats are placed among the wineries on Qingmei Island.
At this time, Dragonfly was exhausted, and Xia Qiu was even more so. The constantly consuming spiritual fire was no longer enough to keep Dragonfly running. She flew down from the horse, even though the darkness above her head struck again, which meant that the purple-eyed monster She would soon catch up with them, but she still took her time and stroked Dragonfly's forehead.
"Thank you, Dragonfly! Go back to Bauhinia Island!" She ordered gently.
Then he no longer looked back, but faced the approaching black shadow. She took each step steadily, and at the same time obtained fuel from all things in the world to help rekindle the extinguished spiritual fire in her body. When the purple-eyed monster arrived in front of her, her spiritual fire had just been able to surround her entire body, and the plum blade had not yet had time to form, but it was precisely because of this that she no longer panicked.
Facing the purple-eyed monster's knife, she raised her left hand and transformed into a shield to block it. However, the opponent took advantage of his height and strength to keep pushing her down. Just when her body was about to touch the ground, the plum blade in her hand took shape again and swung it horizontally towards the purple-eyed monster from behind the shield.
In order to avoid her attack, the purple-eyed monster had no choice but to give up oppressing her, and instead hurriedly dodged back. The wine barrel behind him was broken by his foot, and his foot was temporarily stuck in the barrel. He thought that the girl would take the opportunity to attack him, so he raised his knife in preparation for the attack. Unexpectedly, she stayed where she was. She turned the shield in her left hand and transformed it into a weapon that the purple-eyed monster had never seen before. It looked a bit like a cannon, but it seemed to be similar to Artillery is different.
The weapon she made subconsciously was the rocket launcher she saw in the movie. After putting away the plum blade in her right hand, she smoothly passed the rocket launcher to her hand and held the gun handle at the bottom. She dragged the barrel of the rocket launcher with her left hand, and then aimed one eye at the purple-eyed monster's chest through the sight. One shot.
The cannonballs formed by the spiritual fire hit the purple-eyed monster with a "bang", forcing him to retreat continuously. After crashing many walls, his huge body finally fell into the lake. Xia Qiu also breathed a sigh of relief. She had exhausted her last bit of spiritual power. Even if the purple-eyed monster rose from the lake again and attacked her, she would be unable to resist it.
Fortunately, he didn't show up again. But in the lake, there was clearly a large group of black ink-like shadows moving quickly in the direction of Xuanmiao Palace.
