"Incredible..."
A hint of surprise flashed in Yaming's eyes.
She didn't know how Bai Jie managed it, but he had indeed pierced the spherical monster's demon core with his spear, breaking through its defenses.
However, in the next moment, the shattered demon core and the collapsing spherical monster were restored as if time were flowing backward.
"It's all meaningless."
Ziyue Xun covered the corner of her mouth with a paper fan, letting out a gloomy laugh.

"Even if the demon core is broken, it's useless, because I can recast the spell and regenerate it. The 'Cursed Ball Hungry Ghost' has no weaknesses."
The young man's figure was protected by ten balls with large mouths. Because they were relatively far apart, he was not threatened by the two, and these spherical demon ghosts could also absorb and devour spells, unafraid of ranged attacks.
"Also... you'd better be careful, the proliferation is still continuing."
While Ziyue Xun was speaking, the number of balls increased again. These spherical demon ghosts could divide and replicate themselves.
Looking around, large and small balls were suspended in the air. On the metallic spherical shells, large mouths like smiles were opened, making the scene extremely terrifying.
"Is that so?"
Bai Jie stretched out his hand, and a gust of air swirled the seven-section spear he had thrown, returning it to his hand.
At this moment, behind him, the illusory figure of the Qi Luo Divine General could be faintly seen—this divine general was a warrior wearing armor, with a white face and bandages covering his ears and nose, making it impossible to see the expression on his face.
Bai Jie boldly charged towards the enemy formation. The power of the Qi Luo Divine General was added to his body, making him lighter.
In an instant, Bai Jie swung his spear and thrust it towards the previous spherical monster. His attack was as fast as lightning. He raised his arm and sent it forward, and the sharp spear tip cut through the air. The spear blade collided with the outer shell of the monster using the 'Cursed Ball Hungry Ghost'.
The spear struck the hard shell, and a burst of sparks and metallic sounds rang out.
"It's really hard... but—"
As Bai Jie thrust his spear, the blade retracted. He spun the spear in his hand, and with a whoosh, the entire spear swept horizontally, and with a bang, he directly knocked the spherical pseudo-life form away.
"It's too light. Even if I can't destroy them, I can easily knock them away!"
His strike was powerful and heavy. With the force of the blow, he sent the spherical demon ghost flying like a cannonball, hitting the balls behind it.
"Lord Yaming, please come with me."
Bai Jie leaped forward, and the Qi Luo Divine General, one of the Five Luo Divine Generals, was also summoned, closely following behind him.
"I understand."
Yaming also gripped her sword and quickly followed.
She had complete trust in Bai Jie, and chased after him.
In the instant the two acted, the spherical demon ghosts swarmed in from the front, back, left, and right.
"The enemy is not invulnerable. Let's find the flaws and scatter them."
Bai Jie used the spear as a club. He strengthened his arm strength with spiritual power and roared as he swung it.
Any attacking spherical demon ghost that was hit by the spear shaft would be knocked away by the force of the impact. Because they were too close, when one was hit, it would trigger a chain reaction, and the spherical demon ghosts behind would also be knocked away, scattering in all directions like billiard balls.
"Is it possible to perform such precise strikes?"
Yaming muttered with undisguised surprise.
"That's right."
He held the spear in his right hand and left his left fist empty, smashing a small ball in the air with a backhand punch.
"They're too light and lack mass. As long as I can predict the trajectory of the attack in advance, it's easy to knock them back."
After saying that, Bai Jie's gaze was fixed on Ziyue Xun at the end.
"This kind of spell is maintained by the caster. Defeat him and we can end this..."
His right foot stomped on the ground, and the Qi Luo Arrow spewed out from under his feet. His whole body shot out like an arrow.
On the other side, Ziyue Xun, guarded by the spherical demon ghosts, was in a state of anxiety.
"These two guys can actually break through my 'Cursed Ball Hungry Ghost' siege?"
Admittedly, the spell to control pseudo-life forms was indeed powerful, but using this spell was also extremely draining on spiritual power.
On the other hand, after Ziyue Xun activated this spell, he had to continuously output spiritual power to maintain the existence of the 'Cursed Ball Hungry Ghost'. Once these man-made existences lost their source of power, they would quickly turn into nothing.
Thanks to this, in order to maintain the spiritual power output, he had to stay rooted to the spot, without moving.
"You two fools, don't think you can really get through here!"
Ziyue Xun raised the "True World King" in his hand again.
The light from the tip of the knife bloomed, and he roared.
"Ugh... uooooooo!"
An even more powerful spiritual wave was set off. The young man outputted a greater degree of spiritual power in order to strengthen this spell. In an instant, the balls floated in the air. Dozens, no, hundreds of balls of different sizes were suspended in the air.
Bai Jie and Yaming both had an extremely ominous premonition.
Then, the balls began to rotate at high speed, and the sand and dust on the ground were also stirred up by the strong wind.
The storm composed of balls began to turn into a tornado, sweeping towards Bai Jie and Yaming.
Nearly half of the balls forming the storm opened their mouths, biting everything around them. They could even absorb soil, rocks, and sand. The process of rotating and moving accelerated to the speed of sound, like a rotating black meteor shower.
This was a very terrifying attack. Even if the mass was light, if the speed was fast enough, it could form terrible power. Being caught in it would instantly be subjected to cannonball-like attacks. The body would either be broken or ground down and cut, and blood and flesh would turn into fragments and fly in the air.
"...There's even this kind of move?"
Yaming couldn't hide the shock in her heart, but with Bai Jie by her side, her heart was full of courage.
"Avoid the brunt of it first."
Bai Jie's voice sounded.
"Okay."
A smile appeared on the corner of the girl's mouth. In an instant, she spread her wings from her back—borrowing the power of the shikigami "Yin Moluo Ghost", she grew a pair of jet-black wings from her back, which were giant wings like those of a demon bird.
"Let's go."
At the same time, her right hand grabbed Bai Jie's left hand, and the two took flight in an instant.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Dozens of balls chased over like bullets. Bai Jie reacted, and the spear in his hand flashed and spun back, successively knocking them away with amazing reflexes.

However, the huge ball storm behind was impossible to stop with personal strength. Yaming and Bai Jie began to move rapidly in the air. While she was escaping with the help of her wings, Bai Jie was also using the power of the Qi Luo Divine General to increase their speed.
The two climbed along a spiral trajectory, and the huge tornado storm behind them chased relentlessly. This space was wide, but it was impossible to escape in the face of the ball storms that kept chasing.
"The curse power wavelength is very obvious."
Bai Jie asked the girl, "You should be able to see it clearly now, right?"
"That's right."
Yaming opened her black wings and rotated in a circle, stopping abruptly in the air. She faced the rotating balls, and geometric patterns appeared in her pupils—that was the power of the "Eye". Those patterns were difficult to understand at first glance, and the strange and ominous patterns themselves had some kind of power.
"The 'Cursed Ball Hungry Ghost' spell, which creates pseudo-life, can't actually create real life. These things are like puppets, maintained by spiritual power..."
Her eyes had the power to see through everything.
Although Yaming was initially fooled by the enemy's methods, unable to see the souls of these balls or find the demon core, she now calmed down and realized that she could track the source of spiritual power.
The scattered demon ghosts were hard to say, because the source of spiritual power would also be scattered when manipulated, but concentrating them to create such a large "formation" made the outline and traces of the spiritual power exceptionally easy to discern.
"I can see it."
Yaming raised the Water Jin Sword in her hand high, and the tip of the sword was entangled with several times the refined spiritual energy. Then, she narrowed her eyes and swung the sword in her hand—
It was faster than lightning, and space seemed to be drawn with a vertical line. This strike was not aimed at any "object", but locked onto the source of spiritual power. The ball storm like a black meteor shower suddenly split from the middle, and the space exploded separately.
The severed storm vortex exploded synchronously, and the surrounding balls disintegrated on their own, turning into countless fragments, scattered like stars, and were directly erased.
At this moment, the disappearance of the rotating balls also caused turbulence in the air. A strong wind blew in the air, and it also blew to where Yaming and Bai Jie were.
The wind stopped.
"How... could this be!"
Ziyue Xun choked violently and fell to the ground, spitting blood.
'Impossible... the secret technique I mastered was actually defeated by this kind of method!'
Naturally, he couldn't accept the situation.
No, it can't be considered a loss yet.
The young man knelt on the ground, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.
I haven't failed yet.
"Surrender?"
Yaming flew down from the air, folded her wings and landed on the ground, and Bai Jie also jumped on the ground.
"This 'Cursed Ball Hungry Ghost' should be extremely draining on your power... you now have less than 10% of your spiritual power left, and you have no chance to launch it again!"
The girl raised the tip of her knife, pointing it at Ziyue Xun from afar.
"Give up. We won't do anything to you, but if you continue to resist, we may only be able to treat you in a rough way."
Bai Jie also tightened his grip on the spear shaft, and the tip of the spear was also aimed at the kneeling youth.
"...Hehehehe."
Ziyue Xun didn't give in. A sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, making people feel creepy.
"You really think that you can win me with this kind of method, or... is this all you're capable of?"
As he spoke, cracks appeared on his face, and that face was as stiff as a doll's, giving people a stiff feeling.
Bai Jie and Yaming realized something and took a step back involuntarily. At the same time, cracks also appeared on Ziyue Xun's body.
"I hereby assert,"
As he revealed his true feelings, his body swayed like a flame, and his figure became very blurred.
"You will never defeat me!"
In the next instant, like petals falling, the youth's hair, skin, and clothes suddenly peeled off piece by piece. Then, another figure appeared from under this figure.
"That was just a game. The current me is Ziyue Xun's true form."
It was a girl wearing a furisode-style kimono. She had beautiful, smooth, silver-gray long hair, and fox ears with pointed hairs stood up faintly. Her slender eyebrows and delicate nose gave her a delicate and upright appearance, but without losing her gorgeousness, but it was slightly childish.
As she spoke, she emitted a cyan-white light from her whole body. That was a strong demonic aura, and even if you weren't a demon hunter, you should be able to feel it with the naked eye.
"—From now on, this is my home field."
As soon as the fox girl who called herself "Ziyue Xun" finished speaking, the creepy demonic aura that overflowed from her body dissipated into the atmosphere, and it felt like the temperature had dropped by about three degrees.
