“See the houses up ahead!”
Bao Yue Ye Xiao pointed towards the temple in front, her small face tense.
“Ye Ran gege, there’s something I want to tell you beforehand. My purpose in coming here is to steal the divine spirit statue inside... its Dharma body is very powerful, even a single finger is almost like a special-grade cursed object. It has a strong exorcism effect.”
“So I’d like to ask you to help me draw the attention of the Gizi Boshen so that I can run into the temple.”
“No problem, just be careful yourself.”
Ye Ran nodded, reminding the little loli to be careful.
“I know. I’m getting a big advantage this time, so I won’t take any of the reward. I’ll give it all to you. I just want to get the divine spirit statue inside.”
Ye Ran’s generosity made Bao Yue Ye Xiao feel embarrassed.
To be fair, even with multiple protective forms, she had no way of dealing with the Gizi Boshen.
This was an opponent on a completely different level.
The fact that Ye Ran, a stranger she had only just met, was willing to cover for her and block the attack of this evil deity made the little loli feel quite ashamed.
“Xiao Ye Xiao, it’s too dangerous for you to go into the temple alone. I’ll go with you.”
Seeing the little loli alone, Jian Qi Ming summoned Jian Qi Wei Xiao to attach to her own small body.
The black shadow spread across the young girl's face like a mysterious curse.
Obscure energy swirled around her, as if draping her in a thick black curtain.
“Wait, Shen Dong and Te Li Mu Ma Wu, you two protect them.”
Although Jian Qi Ming and Xiao Ye Xiao had enough means of protection.
Ye Ran was still afraid of an accident, so he sent the Yuki-onna and the Moon Spirit Essence's humanoid form to protect the two girls.
“Yes, Master.” x2
Two different mature female voices rang out at the same time.
A layer of ice-blue whirlwind suddenly swept across the field, and in the center appeared the Spirit-Bound Yuki-onna, Xue Nai Shen Dong.
And the Autonomous Magical Construct, Te Li Mu Ma Wu, who had been given a personality by the “Magical Outfit: Moon Spirit Essence.”
Silvery-gray quicksilver quickly formed in the air, and in the surprised eyes of the three girls, a curvaceous female form was also rapidly taking shape.
Ye Ran, unlike Reincarnation of the Book of the Dead's Leinis, did not have the Magic Eye that was good at precise analysis.
But relying on the massive magical power of the Red Dragon Species and the magical knowledge given by the Grimoire, it was already enough to solidify the Moon Spirit Essence into a humanoid form.
The quicksilver maid, who was close to 140 kg, wore a traditional English maid’s uniform. She had a beautiful face and a curvaceous figure.
Unfortunately, the core contained within was highly toxic quicksilver.
As a quicksilver construct, Te Li Mu Ma Wu's greatest advantage was its ability to change at will, making it invincible in both offense and defense.
“Fervor, meisanguis! (Boil, my blood)”
“AutonlatoporIunlquaerere! (Automatic target search)”
Ye Ran chanted obscure Latin words, and with the crisp sound of bubbles popping, the quicksilver maid in front of him blinked, and her slender arms had become two incredibly sharp, giant quicksilver longswords.
Te Li Mu Ma Wu bent her body slightly forward, gave Ye Ran a standard maid’s salute, and respectfully said, “Master, I will definitely take good care of the two young ladies.”
“Okay, I leave them to you.”
However, the next moment, Ye Ran suddenly raised his head and looked towards a particularly thick mass of dark clouds on the horizon.
Something seemed to be hiding there.
.......
“Such keen intuition......”
Above the clouds.
A man dressed as a monk, wearing five kasayas, with a gloomy face, stood on a giant pelican curse spirit, his eyes narrowed as he retracted his gaze, a sense of unease rising in his heart.
“That boy's senses are quite sharp. I'm in the clouds, a thousand meters away, and he could still sense me.”
“Summer Oil-sama, is that boy very strong?”
Behind the monk-like man, a pair of beautiful girls with similar looks saw the normally impassive Summer Oil Jie rarely show surprise, and they couldn’t help but curiously ask.
“Quite powerful. He was the one who killed that special-grade curse spirit.”
“What!? It’s that guy who ruined your plans, sir?”
The round-faced girl, Jia Chang Cai Cai Zi, was shocked and her big eyes were filled with surprise.
After all, that Level 2 Curse Spirit was a material that Summer Oil-sama had been secretly cultivating with Curse Techniques.
The purpose was to use Curse Technique to swallow it whole after it had grown into a special-grade spirit, making it a crucial part of his power.
And now, the culprit was right down there!?
“Sir, let Mei Mei Zi take down that boy for you.”
Loyal Jia Chang Mei Mei Zi, who seemed to not know what fear was, actually wanted to get revenge for Summer Oil Jie.
“Don’t be reckless.”
The kasaya-clad young man stopped the impulsive girl.
“It is said that this man possesses a peculiar power different from Curse Techniques. You two are no match for him.”
“Besides, that is not our purpose today.”
Looking down at the dark forest, Summer Oil Jie’s eyes were burning with passion.
“That guy has evolved into a special-grade curse spirit. If I can absorb it, it will definitely become a great asset to me.”
“For now, let's just wait and see how things develop, let them fight each other, and we'll reap the benefits.”
..........
“Ye Ran gege, cover me.”
Bao Yue Ye Xiao pulled out her own special weapon—the Physics Holy Sword (crowbar)—from behind and, along with Jian Qi Ming and the other four, quickly ran towards the temple in front.
At the same time, a huge dark shadow suddenly appeared above the temple.
It was a dark evil spirit shrouded in a vast amount of dark spiritual energy.
On her mountainous body, there were countless baby evil spirits that crawled like insects.
Her face was full of sorrow, but the corners of her mouth curved up in a strange way.
The expression of crying and laughing was glued together.
It was unbelievably eerie and creepy.
“Human, you have dared to trespass on my dwelling. You have already sealed your fate.”
The Gizi Boshen's eerie voice, like a ubiquitous draft, came from all directions.
Ye Ran was expressionless, and his magical power erupted from his body like a tidal wave, forming a howling hurricane in place.
“Let’s see if you have the ability to do that.”
Evil spirits have no reason or logic.
They naturally have a great malice towards living beings.
He didn’t have anything else to say besides fighting.
“Then go to your death!”
The Gizi Boshen’s face was grim.
The extremely powerful dark energy fluctuations, like tides, spread rapidly, causing the surrounding air to ripple slightly.
Boom—!
She shook her wrist, shooting out several huge black tentacles with lightning speed, making a thunderous roar as they smashed towards the young man.
