"Well, it's an honor for me, Huaqiang, that Big Brother invited me here today. Whatever I, Niu Huaqiang, can do, I will definitely do for you, without any ambiguity!" The Bull-Headed Demon King carried a big knife and looked ferocious.
"That's great! I just like your temper!" The Tiger Demon King pointed at Yuzhuanjin who was not far away and said, "Those humans came to our territory. We should teach them a lesson today."
"Of course!"
Niu Huaqiang nodded in agreement.
Two demon kings, two SR-level demons.
"Then let's go together..."
Yuzhuanjin has made new preparations.
“Humph, you are so arrogant, human. I will tell you one thing. In this forest, a dragon must coil up, and a tiger… ahem. Anyway, young man, don’t be too arrogant!”
Niu Huaqiang shouted in a muffled voice.
"…Fiendfire."
——The Curse of the Fiery Fire!
Yuzhuanjin decided to release this uncontrollable curse.
Because the opponent is an uncontrollable monster, such a dangerous method is used. Fortunately, there is a system [Skill] as a restriction, and Li Huo will choose to burn himself as the caster last.
……
The blazing fire transformed into a young fox that leapt to the ground. The flames burning all around it became nutrients for its growth.
Both "Blazing Flames" and "Fire God Clearing the Way" had to give way to the black magic "Fire Curse".
The level does not represent everything; attributes are one of the main criteria for distinguishing strength.
For C-level attributes, monsters with average talent or who were promoted to SR-level through coercive means will only meet one of the requirements, and such monsters often mean that no matter how hard they work in the second half of their lives, they will not be able to make any further progress.
B-level attributes. Monsters with rich experience or slightly stronger talents will generally have one of these attributes met when they are promoted to SR level, and this attribute also represents their strengths. Monster kings with this level of attributes are the backbone of the entire Japan.
A-level attributes. A monster that has just been promoted to SR level cannot have attributes of this level. Monsters that possess attributes of this level have basically stayed at the SR level for a long time and have accumulated them over time.
S-level attributes are the iconic attributes of big monsters, namely SSR-level monsters. It is almost impossible for SR-level monsters to have them, unless they are born as the son of God or the reincarnation of the Holy Spirit.
As for Yuzhongjin, he already has two C-level and one B-level attributes at R-level, thanks to his SSR-level growth attributes and the blessing of five Onmyoji spirits.
Moreover, with the help of the [Mount], her attack attribute was raised to A-level, which allowed her to face two SR-level little demon kings without being too restrained for a while.
All you need to do is attack fiercely, relying on your attack attribute which is one level higher than theirs, and gain absolute advantage within at least a quarter of an hour.
"What's this?!"
Niu Huaqiang and Lao Hu felt inexplicably pressured.
The power of the fierce fire is self-evident. The continuous burning is enough to reduce everything to annihilation. The young fox's body continues to swell, and in the blink of an eye it grows into a giant fox about a hundred meters long.
——The water of the great river!
The shrimp demon Zhentao tried to put out the fierce fire with river water, but how could a ten-meter-long river pose a threat to the hundred-meter-long incarnation of fire? White mist rose up, and was burned away in the next second.
The eagle demon Yueping used wind magic, but it ended up fanning the flames.
"Boss Demon King, here we come!"
How could a battle of this scale involve only a few monsters? The Tiger Demon King has more than just Zhentao under his command left in Dabenshan.
An elephant monster and another watermelon monster hurried to the scene. Both monsters were very powerful and had quite strong aura.
Fighting seven monsters of equal level to himself alone was more difficult than any previous trial. After releasing the "Fire Curse", Yuzhong Jin's spiritual power was almost exhausted.
From now on, he could no longer use spells to attack, and could only rely on bows and arrows that consumed less mana to defeat the enemy. Yu Zhuanjin made a decision secretly in his heart, and then patted Fu Fu's back, signaling the latter to fight alongside Li Huo for the time being.
Now that we have created such a powerful summon, how can we not make good use of it?
Yu Zhuanjin's figure merged into Lihuo's body, which made it difficult for the two demon kings to target Yu Zhuanjin first. They could only work together to fight against Lihuo who was burning wildly.
"Moo-!"
A sound of an elephant's roar was heard, and the elephant monster transformed into its original form, a fifty-meter-tall mammoth, and charged directly towards the fierce fire red fox, trying to wrestle with it by taking advantage of its distance.
But the red fox continued to grow, and its level once broke through and even exceeded the limit of level 25, reaching level 26, so it swung its tail to repel the giant elephant.
An arrow shot out from Li Huo's body and pierced through the watermelon monster's forehead, killing it with one blow!
"Shed!"
The giant elephant was deeply distressed and shouted angrily, "How dare you chop my little brother?"
There are so many complaints that I don’t even know where to start.
Yu Zhuanjin ignored the elephant monster. The exit of the weakest monster had no impact on the current situation, because the two main monster kings were still unharmed.
The angry giant elephant charged at the red fox angrily. Even though it was surrounded by flames, it was still not afraid. Its thick skin and flesh were very beneficial.
The attack was launched by charging, and its defense was targeted at the attack. The red fox stepped back half a step, obviously affected by the giant elephant, but the gap between them was still in the favor of the former, and it was extremely superior.
"I'm here to help you!"
Niu Huaqiang carried the big knife and stepped on the ground. He felt a tremor and the ochre-colored evil spirit wrapped around one side of the blade and slashed fiercely at the red fox.
"Count me in!"
The sharp edge of shadow covered its claws. Although the shadow tiger's power was not high, it was extremely vicious. The other monsters attacked together, each showing their magical powers.
The Fierce Fire Red Fox, which had already expanded to its full size, was gradually losing the upper hand. The surroundings were all burnt ruins, and without supplies, its power was nearing the end.
--boom!
The red fox's figure collapsed, causing an extremely strong explosion, with large flames splashing everywhere. This was the last afterglow of the fierce fire, equivalent to the self-destruction of a monster of the same level.
The area within a radius of 500 meters was completely covered. The monsters had never expected that this would happen in the end and were immediately engulfed by the flames.
Of course, Yu Zhuanjin, who had been in the fierce fire, was also deeply affected. However, the calmest part of the storm was when the "Eye" broke the spell.
The fire spread across the prairie. Yu Zhuanjin memorized Niu Huaqiang's position just before the body of the fierce red fox collapsed. The place with the lowest flame temperature is the "core".
Yu Zhuanjin had already anticipated that although Lihuo had SR-level combat power, his opponents were two little demon kings and a group of powerful R-level monsters, and he would most likely be defeated.
However, being defeated is also good, not only does it have an extraordinary range of damage, but it also does not require Yuzhongjin to use
Then he bent his bow and shot an arrow blindly.
——Explosive magic-breaking arrow!
The ultimate skill was quickly launched towards the face, and the trajectory of the arrow was concealed by the flames. When Niu Huaqiang felt that the powerful attack was about to hit his heart, it was already too late to avoid it.
With her arms crossed in front of her, her whole body emitted an earth-yellow demonic aura that turned into a shield. Niu Huaqiang didn't believe that a witch still had the energy to launch a powerful attack at this time.
However, it was wrong. Hundreds of years of common sense could not be applied to Yu Zhuanjin. Perhaps Niu Huaqiang's judgment was correct when facing other people, but it was almost useless for the former.
This is the arrow of destruction!
Strengthened by critical hits.
It was neither reasonable nor logical for Niu Huaqiang to resist.
The SR-level little demon king was killed by Yuzhuanjin for the first time!
……
The flames gradually dissipated. Both the eagle demon Yueping and the pig demon Tuohai had gone to hell with the bull-headed demon king. Only the thick-skinned elephant demon, Yinghu and the shrimp demon Zhentao who were good at water barely survived.
"Hehe~ I have to admit that you are a very capable human, but you are now at the end of your strength."
Yinghu was extremely fearful at this moment. For a moment, he was even afraid of the witch in his eyes. Although her aura was weak, she was able to burst out with a power that almost killed them.
However, it was time to end. Yinghu noticed that Yuzhongjin's black fox had returned to its juvenile state, which was proof that its power had been exhausted. Yes, even if it burst out with great power, what would it matter? After all, it was just a shrine maiden with insufficient spiritual power.
"it's over!"
Shadow Tiger transformed into a shadow, ready to reap the enemy's life.
--clang!
However, the bronze vajra struck its chest with lightning speed, interrupting the spell and shattering its heart.
"A quarter of an hour."
Yuzhongjin said in a low voice.
At this point, the priest Qinghe came in and looked around at the burnt forest. This scene seemed familiar, but the scope was much larger than last time, and the traces were not regular.
……
The arrival of Qinghe Priest eliminated the remaining monsters on the scene. Although there was suspicion of stealing heads, the rewards that Yuzhongjin actually received were not small, and she really did not have the extra energy to continue fighting.
Of the three SR-level spirits required for the advanced mission, two were now directly obtained. Although Yinghu was sealed by the Qinghe Priest, Yuzhongjin had already made 80% of his "contribution" before that, so it was included in the calculation.
"Things have gone beyond my expectations. I didn't expect that two demon kings would appear here. However, Fushimi Miko, your ability is also beyond my expectations. In this situation, you can still stay calm and defeat one of the demon kings."
Picking up the vajra on the ground, Qinghe Priest also looked at Yuzhongjin in a different light. It was impossible for him to fight against several monsters of the same or even higher level with his meager strength when he was young.
"you flatter me."
Yu Zhuanjin just breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't think she was that great. With the blessing of various souls and systems, wasn't it natural for her to fight like this?
On the contrary, she should feel ashamed for only being beaten like this. If Yunhe had her template, I'm afraid that another demon king would be able to turn the opponent's ashes into dust.
After recovering a little bit of spiritual power, Yu Zhuanjin did not continue to stay there idle, but followed other clergymen to deal with the messy monsters in the mountains and forests.
With a group of monsters numbering nearly five figures, Yu Zhuanjin must get a piece of the pie. If she misses this opportunity, she doesn't know when she will have to wait to gain a lot of experience next time.
——The God of Fire leads the way!
The most advanced spell appeared in Yuzhongjin's hands, as gorgeous as the fiery clouds covering the sky in the evening.
The vortex of flames struck deep within the demon group. Regardless of what kind of gain could be obtained from this powerful move, at least the task of [Seal the Demon Spirit a Thousand Times] would be completed first.
Yu Zhuanjin's action immediately attracted the attention of other clergymen. His elegant posture, the calm expression when casting the spell, and the sparks floating all over the sky.
"It's rare for you to have a good apprentice."
Priest Boyan turned his head and said to Priest Qinghe with emotion.
"My first two apprentices were pretty good, too."
Qinghe Priest always deliberately avoids the other party's topic.
"What kind of mentality do you have to say this to me?"
Nowadays, everyone in the Kanto region knows that the chief priest of Hikawa Shrine and the two apprentices of Qinghe Priest are notoriously stupid.
"..."
Unable to refute, Priest Qinghe could only remain silent. The various shrines in the Kanto region would always visit each other, sometimes for communication or perhaps for important matters, so they all knew the direct disciples of other shrines.
Among the successors of the new generation, his disciple is the only one who is doomed. To be more precise, his brain is simply not working very well, but this does not prevent the Qinghe priest from having full confidence in him.
At least under Yu Zhuanjin's guidance, Su Yue and Xi Zhao have become more reliable.
"Speaking of which, why did you choose to come to my side at this time? Musashi needs you to take charge, at least before we catch the monster that came across the sea from Central Plains."
Suddenly, Priest Boyan mentioned this matter again.
"I don't know. During this period of time, I have searched all over Musashi, but I can't find any clues. There are only a few monster areas that I haven't explored yet. But you also know that once we step into the monster's territory, it will only have a great negative impact."
The priest Qinghe was particularly worried.
"Indeed, if we break the rules beforehand, the monsters in the Kanto region will be gathered together. They have been longing for a 'new king' for two hundred years. That monster has the qualifications to be a king and is in the process of transformation. Once it completes the last step and transforms from a Jiao into a dragon, it will be the next Dragon Bone Spirit. The century-long order that we have worked so hard to obtain will be broken."
Nodding slightly, Boyan said in a deep voice: "The reason why the demons in this area are so restless is simply because they believe that their new leader is about to be born, so they want to take this opportunity to cause trouble. They are not the first to do so, and they will not be the last. Before the demon is completely defeated, these demon disasters will continue to occur."
"Before that, I'll perform a sealing spell on the monster. It will be safe for a short period of time, but..."
After that, Priest Qinghe continued, "Because of the seal, the opponent's aura has been greatly weakened, making it impossible for us to find him."
"It's better than letting it recover from its injuries. If there's no seal on that monster, who do you think can deal with it?"
After Priest Boyan finished speaking, he turned to look at the old monk on the other side and continued, "That old man also invited Sorachi Arhat from Koyasan. I just hope that everything will be fine by then."
"……I hope so."
Every shrine has a trump card, and the trump card of Hikawa Shrine lies in the sacred weapon Tenfist Sword enshrined in the main temple, but the priest Qinghe does not want to use the sword because it costs a very high price for humans to use the sacred weapon.
Moreover, not everyone can use the Ten Fist Sword.
