Knowing that he could completely defend against Ye Li's attack, Xiunian's mind was almost completely relaxed. He could see that Ye Li had basically used all his strength to attack him.
Ye Li is a melee type talisman master. Now he comes close to him, attacking him like a violent storm, but he can't even break through his first layer of defense. For Xiunian, this is definitely good news.
However, Xiu Nian also realized that Ye Li was different from others. After all, the other party was only a talisman master in the early stage of the gestational period. If Ye Li's realm could reach the middle stage of the gestational period, it would be difficult for him to deal with him, let alone reaching the late stage of the gestational period at the same level as him.
If Ye Li was really at the same level as him, he estimated that his defense would not last for a few hits and would be smashed to pieces.
Xiunian felt relieved and started her counterattack while maintaining her defense.
As he chanted, strange scriptures combined with the wind spiritual energy and transformed into wind talismans in the air. Tornadoes and wind blades continued to attack Ye Li.
The Wind Talisman itself is not very suitable for attacking, and its means are limited. This attribute focuses more on defense and assistance. When combined with other attributes, its power will become extremely strong.
Xiunian's attack didn't actually pose much of a threat to Ye Li. Ye Li was extremely fast and his steps were extremely agile. He basically circled around Xiunian, constantly attacking her in all directions while dodging her attacks.
He used Xiunian's body as a cover, and with his speed advantage, he was able to defend against Xiunian's attack just by his own movement.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that the activation speed of the Xiu Nian talisman is slower than that of the generally drawn talisman, which is also one of the shortcomings of the secret method of the Śrāvakas and Pratyekabuddhas.
The two of them fought for a stick of incense, but neither could do anything to the other. Ye Li kept circling around Xiunian's body, turning left or right, and his fists, kicks, elbows and knees kept hitting the pagoda shadow around Xiunian.
Xiunian's attacks couldn't do anything to him, and his attacks couldn't do anything to Xiunian.
But at this moment, Xiunian felt a little ashamed, because after all, his realm was two levels higher than his opponent. However, when they fought, neither of them could do anything to the opponent. This was really embarrassing for him.
After thinking for a long time, Xiunian decided to remove the layer of the golden tower inside her. Although this ultimate defensive talisman formed by the fusion of three different talismans was powerful, it was obviously useless now.
Ye Li's attack couldn't even break through his first layer of defense, so there was no need for him to keep his ultimate defense skills at hand.
Thinking of this, Xiu Nian stretched out his hand and waved, and the golden layer inside his glazed pagoda turned into balls of golden spiritual energy and dissipated.
As he advanced, Xiu Nian flicked his fingers, and rays of talisman light lit up. Since he could now rely solely on talismans for defense, he planned to attack Ye Li with all his strength.
Golden spiritual energy gathered together, and huge demon-subduing pestles appeared in the sky and began to fall towards Ye Li.
As Xiunian threw out another spell, a huge jungle filled with swords and weapons rose from under his feet.
These weapons are all made of gold-element spiritual energy and are extremely sharp. Under Xiu Nian's control, they keep moving in a small range, trying to cut Ye Li who is trapped inside.
After releasing two talismans in succession, Xiunian began to draw the third talisman. Once he released it, Ye Li’s situation would become even more dangerous.
Ye Li, who kept dodging in the gaps between Xiunian's talismans, could no longer attack Xiunian. In order to target his speed, Xiunian released talismans centered on his body and attacked in all directions.
This method of attack made it impossible for Ye Li to get too close to Xiunian.
He knew in his heart that if he continued to wait for Xiunian to accumulate talismans, his situation would become even more dangerous after a while. No matter how fast he was, he would not be able to completely avoid Xiunian's attack.
After all, Xiu Nian is a talisman master in the late gestational period, and Ye Li's strength is inferior to that of the other party. If he is attacked by a few talismans, it will be difficult for his armor to withstand it.
Thinking of this, Ye Li didn't dare to continue wasting time. He wanted to take down the opponent before Xiunian released his final attack.
Ye Li suddenly stepped on the ground and turned his body sharply. He changed from circling to attacking in a straight line, aiming in the direction of Xiunian and flying away like a meteor.
He stomped his feet hard on the ground, and the whole person suddenly flew into the air. The wings of the Vermillion Bird behind him suddenly fluttered in the air, and with the flames surging, he turned into a huge flaming Vermillion Bird.
The flaming Vermilion Bird glided through the air and prevented Ye Li from falling into the jungle of swords and weapons below.
At this moment, the only threat to Ye Li was the pile of demon-subduing pestles that kept falling on his head.
However, the attack speed of the Demon Subduing Pestle was slightly slower than that of the sword forest on the ground. Ye Li could change direction slightly in the air with the help of the wings of the Vermillion Bird, which made many of Xiunian's attacks miss.
When he was about to reach Xiunian, a demon-subduing pestle finally hit Suzaku's back hard.
The enormous force smashed the Vermillion Bird into flames. Its body fell to the ground and was immediately surrounded by swordsmen. It was crushed to pieces in a few strokes, but Ye Li flew straight out of the flaming Vermillion Bird's body.
Under the protection of the Flame Vermillion Bird, Ye Li was not injured by the attack just now. All the armor on his body had disappeared at this moment, and all his strength was gathered in his arms.
The Eight Thunder Chains were wrapped around his arms, making his hands look like two huge iron hammers.
Ye Li fell from the sky, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, and smashed heavily on the glazed pagoda beside Xiunian with the force of a meteor.
Because he had not attacked the Glazed Pagoda for a long time, all the cracks on the Glazed Pagoda had been repaired, and now it was a complete defense without any damage.
According to Xiunian's thinking, Ye Li's attack could not break his defense. In his feeling, Ye Li's attack was at most at the early stage of the gestational period. Even if Ye Li used his own unique skills now, it would be difficult to reach the late stage of the gestational period.
Moreover, even if Ye Li's attack reached the late stage of the gestational period, it would not be so easy to break through the talisman that he launched with the same strength of the late stage of the gestational period.
He could now see that Ye Li's attack was an attack that condensed all his strength. After this attack, Ye Li would definitely lose his ability to defend himself.
He also noticed that Ye Li's speed slowed down a lot after losing the Vermillion Bird Wings, and he could no longer dodge his attacks as easily as before. This attack should be the one that decides the outcome between the two.
