"That's such a shame~"
Game start.
Xiao Liu took out a mahogany sword with a smile: "Your Majesty, Maoshan Taoist Liu Fenmu."
"Taofa! Fire! Fire snake!"
Liu Fenmu's narrowed eyes suddenly widened, his Dantian moved, and he stabbed out the peach wood sword in his hand. The flames gathered along the hilt and towards the tip of the sword, condensing into a fire snake as thick as an arm and leaping towards Tang Lian ferociously.
"Suzaku."
Tang Lian opened her thin lips lightly, and in the next second she flapped her dark red wings, and a scorching heat wave hit her face. The aftermath of the fire snake shook the fire snake into a plume of smoke, which curled away.
The appearance of the mythical beast made the audience excited, with screams and cheers. Even Gongsun Fu was shocked when he saw that Suzaku didn't even make an attack, and could shatter the fire snake just by being summoned.
Liu Fenmu raised his eyebrows with a smile: "As expected of Miss Tang, the top Yin Beast is willing to accept it, but it's a pity that it is soulless."
"Taofa! Yin! Soul-calling!"
He quickly made a complicated seal with his hands, bit his finger, and spat out a drop of blood from his fingertip. This drop of blood passed Suzaku's defense and inevitably stuck to Tang Lian's clothes.
Immediately afterwards, the entire district election venue darkened, and the dead souls within several miles around were summoned by the seal. Many dead souls visible to the naked eye were hidden in the mist, rushed into the venue from outside, and attacked Tang Lian.
"The Yin beast has no soul. These things can be said to be its natural enemies. No matter how strong they are, they are suppressed by blood." Liu Fenmu crossed his hands in front of him and said with a smile, "I have long heard that Miss Tang has such a Vermillion Bird, so The curator specially chose me, a person who doesn't even have a ghost, to come and meet you."
The audience in the venue was frightened by such supernatural things, and Gongsun Fu became nervous: "Although Xiao Lianlian's Suzaku seems to have improved a lot, at least around eighty, it still can't resist the dead soul. ... Old guy Li Kangan deliberately sent a Taoist priest from Maoshan, didn’t he make it clear that he wanted to go against us?”
Suzaku screamed loudly and spit out balls of fire towards the black mist. Each time, it passed through the middle of the mist without any burning effect. Gradually, the dead souls began to gather into powerful humanoid soul monsters several meters high, and two of them transformed into two. He actually wanted to crush Suzaku to death with his bare hands.
Liu Fenmu said regretfully: "Miss Tang, why don't you give up? Such a powerful beast was ruined in your hands. I feel heartbroken when I see it!"
Tang Lian sneered: "Really? Then I will..."
As she raised her hand, a new value appeared on the instrument used by the Inventory Bureau to monitor the fluctuations of evil spirits. Looking behind her, there was a Yin God in human form holding a wat board and wearing a scarlet uniform similar to the second-grade official uniform of the Ming Dynasty. He is wearing a golden pheasant uniform and a black gauze hat on his head. His eyes are not dark at all, and words that do not belong to the earth are flowing on his face.
"As you wish!"
"Hai Rui! Detention!"
The Yin God Hai Rui raised his head, and the words on his face flowed faster, until they flowed out from all parts of his body, forming several tokens with the word "Ju" in the air, and one after another entered the body of the humanoid soul monster. The originally invisible soul monster was now Surrounded by words, it takes shape.
"Pardon! Exile!"
The Yin God Hairuihut Ban pointed directly at Suzaku and gave Suzaku the power to punish.
Suzaku spat out a huge fireball again. The fireball touched the flowing words and merged into it instantly, burning the words that imprisoned the soul monsters until they were hot and shiny. The soul monsters who were fixed in place and unable to move could only wait to be hit, suffering from pain. The passing words were burned by the flames, shrinking little by little until they disappeared.
Liu Fenmu was stunned for a moment, but he still didn't give up and threw out a yellow talisman paper with two fingers.
"Taofa! Water! Water dragon!"
"Tao Dharma! Dharma of heaven and earth!"
He threw out the mahogany sword in his hand. The mahogany sword blended with Taoism and turned into a water dragon roaring out. Its shape was crystal clear like streams gathering together, and its sound was majestic and strong like a bell. It was also blessed by laws, heavenly phenomena and earth, and its size quickly increased to the level of Suzaku is of average stature.
Dragons and birds confront each other, water and fire invade each other, and high-pitched birdsong and dragon roar collide.
Suzaku spits out a continuous stream of flames. The water dragon consumes its own evil energy and turns into water power to meet the enemy. The flames and water columns ebb and flow, and the evil energy emitted is like a mist of water vapor that envelopes the entire arena. The other members of the competition at the same time are also lost in the huge In the white mist.
When the fog finally dissipated, people found that the Suzaku was still standing proudly in the air, unscathed, while the Water Dragon had exhausted its evil spirit and disappeared without a trace.
"I abstain, I abstain..." Liu Fenmu gritted his teeth and clasped his fists, "Miss Tang has such good foundation, I am the one who cannot defeat her."
Tang Lian waved her hand to put away Hai Rui and Suzaku, and walked off the stage without even giving him a spare look.
The audience cheered fiercely, which was even stronger than when Hong Qingxiong and Zhang Ningzhi fought.
Shi Xin returned to his seat and asked Gongsun Fu casually: "Did you win?"
She just saw that Liu Fenmu had summoned dead souls from the outside world, so she wanted to collect some for her own Yin spirits to improve their spirits. She used the excuse to go to the toilet, and naturally missed the game.
Gongsun Fu was still applauding, with overflowing joy on his brows. He took the time to turn his head and said, "Xiao Lianlian is really pretty this time. Not only has Suzaku's Taoism improved a lot, but she has also adopted a new Yin Shen, who is quite deep."
Regarding the Xinyin God Hai Rui, Tang Lian informed Shi Xin as soon as she got it. She exchanged it for the [Punishment Law Bamboo Slips]. This law-enforcing treasure that can only be used once can just make the original Hai Rui, a small lord under the jurisdiction of Jiutian Xuannv, protects her who practices the laws and regulations.
Moreover, Hai Rui's evil spirit increases based on the remaining influence of the Law of the Wasteland. If Shi Xin can develop the world of Datong faster and establish a model autonomous region, then Hai Rui's Tao Xing will grow faster.
When Tang Lian came back, she looked at Shi Xin with more gratitude and happiness in her eyes. Looking back, it seemed that all her luck had been used to facilitate the meeting between the two. Without Shi Xin, she would not have known how to be her nominal mother. How long did Chen Yuzhen's men struggle?
Shi Xin gave her an encouraging look and followed Tang Lian's direction to see Zhang Ningzhi's slightly lonely, but more sincere and joyful expression.
"Zhang Ningzhi."
All six groups on the stage had finished competing. Erlangshen announced the list of members for the next group, and Shi Xin was among them.
She smiled: "Are you willing to play for me?"
Zhang Ning was stunned: "Me? One more time?"
"Yes, when the Taoist priest from Maoshan came up just now, I didn't see his path clearly. I really don't have confidence. In order not to embarrass our Inspection Bureau, just agree."
When Zhang Ningzhi came on stage for the second time without any hesitation, not only she, but also other audiences in the venue were confused.
Isn't this the member of the Inventory Bureau who can kill people instantly with one move?
Why did you repeat it?
Unfortunately, the situation no longer allowed Zhang Ningzhi to hesitate any longer. The Maoshan Taoist she faced this time also came from the Luo City Museum, and was even more powerful than Liu Fenmu.
Gongsun Fu didn't show much concern. After the competition started, he turned to Shi Xin and asked: "You can't compete because you want to hide your strength?"
