Chapter 405
Faced with the invitation from the Paranoid Demon, Xiao Chun glanced at Yu Muqiu, who was engaged in a fierce battle below, and then at Chen Xiaoxia in her arms, her thoughts racing.
She suddenly asked:
"Then... why don't you... join us?"
"A stupid question."
The Paranoid Demon replied coldly, "If you're trying to stall for time with such a stupid question... then give up. I don't want to talk to you anymore."
Xiao Chun's question must have touched a nerve with the Paranoid Demon, causing him to lose his Desire to talk.
He shut his mouth, raised his hand again towards Murong Xiaochun, and prepared to unleash magic to deliver the final blow to the Magical Girls in front of him.
He used his favorite move, the one that bound Chen Xiaoxia to a world of fear.
"Magic--"
The Paranoid Demon was about to cast a spell on Xiao Chun.
Suddenly, both the Paranoid Demon Xiao Chun stopped what they were doing and looked at Chen Xiaoxia in Xiao Chun's arms.
Chen Xiaoxia, who had lost her light and whose eyes were completely closed, suddenly burst forth with Shine magical radiance. This magical radiance was so powerful and even more dazzling than before.
Sensing the sudden appearance of magic, the Paranoid Demon immediately and decisively changed the spell.
"--The Trial of Truth!"
An execution rack used for carrying out executions suddenly appeared beneath Xiao Chun and Chen Xiaoxia.
Two Magical Girls stood atop an execution rack, surrounded by raging flames, accompanied by distorted and cacophonous cheers, as if someone was celebrating their execution.
Xiao Chun is unable to move.
When the gallows appeared, she was bound to them and unable to move an inch!
However, just as Xiao Chun was about to be executed, an even more dazzling magical light burst forth from Chen Xiaoxia's body!
Boom!!
Her attire changed; her original armor became much thicker, and the magical patterns on it became more complex and ornate.
Chen Xiaoxia, clad in a skirt armor, suddenly opened her eyes, her magic wildly tearing apart the spell that was about to execute the two!
Murong Xiaochun stared in shock at Chen Xiaoxia, who had just woken up.
Shining 2!
Without a doubt, this is the same Shining 2 form that Xiao Qiu is currently using!
Chen Xiaoxia... she has also begun a new phase!
Volume 4 <Magic Autumn> Movie and Season 3: Chapter 438 Threefold Enhancement! Courage Blossom!!
(The time for a counterattack has come!!)
(Xiaoxia, charge! Kill him!!)
(Hmm... I don't mean to be pessimistic, but judging from the current situation, even if Xiaoxia awakens Shining 2, she'll probably just be about the same as that Demons above...)
(It seems so... after all, Xiao Qiu hasn't finished the battle yet...)
(So how do I play this?)
Yeah, how do we fight it?
The Magical Girls beneath the Sky Screen were also pondering.
However, Xiao Bai had an idea.
She remembered that the Magical Girls seemed to always be in a state of magical connection, right? And Xiao Qiu...
So how to break this deadlock? The answer is actually quite obvious.
Hey Chen Xiaoxia, you idiot, let me go!!
Xiao Bai tried to break free from Chen Xiaoxia's grasp, but the idiot seemed determined not to let Xiao Bai escape. She grabbed Xiao Bai's arm and even hugged her tightly.
Xiao Bai, there's nowhere to escape!
"How is that possible...?"
The Paranoid Demon looked at Chen Xiaoxia in shock.
His magic was shattered by Chen Xiaoxia in an instant. Didn't this mean that Chen Xiaoxia had gained Upper Rank magic power at this moment?
How did she do it?
There's even this form... I've never seen this kind of Demons before...
"Hey, Demons, I'm truly 'thank you' for creating such a world for me..."
Upon returning from the 'Single World', Chen Xiaoxia wore a sinister smile that was anything but righteous.
She stood before Xiao Chun, her hands gripping her Magical Armament tightly, and whispered to Xiao Chun:
"Xiao Chun, sorry I'm late. Please stay away... I'll take care of him now!"
"..." Staring blankly at Chen Xiaoxia's retreating figure, Xiao Chun was momentarily lost in thought, but she quickly recovered and nodded to Xiaoxia:
"Okay, please, Xiaoxia."
"Leave it to me!"
Bang!!
With a whooshing sound, Chen Xiaoxia soared into the sky and engaged in battle with the Paranoid Demon.
Xiao Chun gazed at the blue star flying in the sky, lost in thought for a moment.
Following Xiao Qiu, Xiaoxia has also unlocked a new form. Will I... unlock a new form next?
Xiao Chun had no idea what her new form would be like, but in any case, Xiao Chun was no longer qualified to participate in the battle at this moment.
All she can do now is try to stay as far away as possible so as not to hold Xiao Qiu and Xiaoxia back.
Chen Xiaoxia into the sky and fought against the Paranoid Demon.
A dazzling blue energy rippled through the air, clashing with the black aura released by the Paranoid Demon.
With a qualitative leap in strength, Chen Xiaoxia's power and speed are now comparable to those of the current Paranoid Demon!
In a short span of time, the two exchanged blows several times, the sound of greatswords clashing against arms ringing out one after another, and sparks flying from the collisions onto the Paranoid Demon.
The Paranoid Demon's eyes followed Chen Xiaoxia's every move. He watched Chen Xiaoxia's attack trajectory flash around him, and finally seized the opportunity to unleash his magic in the direction of Chen Xiaoxia's next attack!
"Exclusive Refraction--!"
Bang!!!
The Wizards unleashed, and an attack identical to Chen Xiaoxia's appeared abruptly from the air, as if it were a reflection of Chen Xiaoxia's attack, and slashed back at Chen Xiaoxia!
The sword energy, painted black, blocked Chen Xiaoxia's attack and engaged in a struggle with Chen Xiaoxia.
During this stalemate, the Paranoid Demon used his magic once again!
"Magic--"
"!"
"--I I Am the World!"
Buzz--!
A buzzing sound filled the sky. Within the barrier created by the Blood Demon, the Paranoid Demon actually deployed another transparent, invisible barrier centered on himself!
As the barrier unfolded, the Paranoid Demon pointed at Xiaoxia and said coldly:
"Weak--"
Buzz!
Another wave of magical energy spread out, and Chen Xiaoxia was clearly given a negative buff.
Although these negative buffs did not have a significant impact on Xiaoxia due to her innate purifying power, they still restricted Xiaoxia movements!
Moreover, the Paranoid Demon inflicts more than just this one negative buff!
"Weak, slow, sluggish--!"
After several negative buffs were applied to Chen Xiaoxia speed finally changed noticeably; she became much slower.
Seeing this, the Paranoid Demon pointed to himself and exclaimed, "I Am Omnipotent!"
Swish!
As soon as he finished speaking, the Paranoid Demon vanished instantly and reappeared beside Chen Xiaoxia!
Unlike before, the Paranoid Demon's arm had somehow transformed into a sharp black blade, the blade gleaming with a cold black light, and it was falling straight down towards Chen Xiaoxia's neck!
With her speed restricted, Chen Xiaoxia's reaction was a beat slower, but with her Upper Rank strength, she wouldn't be completely powerless to fight back as before.
Just as the blade was about to fall, Xiaoxia used her own special magic.
Speed Demon - Threefold Enhancement!
Her legs glowed faintly as Chen Xiaoxia's body broke through its current limits, and disregarding the tearing sensation in her body, she vanished from her spot in an instant.
The Demons's blade missed its mark, but Chen Xiaoxia's figure appeared in the distance.
She frowned as she sensed the unique barrier that was distinctly different from the Magic Barrier.
"Tsk, what troublesome magic," Chen Xiaoxia muttered to herself, pouting.
She saw the key to the Paranoid Demon's magic.
Clearly, within this special barrier, the Paranoid Demon is the sole 'god,' capable of influencing anything within it!
He can inflict negative status effects on enemies, and he can also be 'omnipotent' to some extent within this barrier.
It would be no exaggeration to call this his divine kingdom!
However, this magic was not as powerful as imagined. Although the Paranoid Demon could exert a negative influence on Chen Xiaoxia, these effects would be very weak when they landed on her.
When Chen Xiaoxia uses her magic to break through her current physical limits, the effects of these negative states can almost be ignored.
However, even though she understood the essence of this move, it wouldn't be so easy for Xiaoxia to defeat the Paranoid Demon.
If they can't defeat this Demons quickly, their battle with Demons will likely turn into a long and drawn-out war.
"Not bad magic..." came the exclamation of the Paranoid Demon.
He looked at Chen Xiaoxia's slightly cracked leg armor and said, "Instantly strengthening your legs and unleashing unimaginable Speed Demon... I admit, I may have underestimated you before."
"Hmph, you think I'll let you off the hook just because you praise me now?"
"No, I just think you're pretty good, that's all."
The Paranoid Demon raised his right-hand blade, crouched low in the air, adopting a starting stance like a runner preparing for a race, and aimed at Chen Xiaoxia:
"Let's begin round two, Magical Girls!"
Swish!!
The Paranoid Demon's figure vanished again, but this time Chen Xiaoxia had already tracked his movements. Immediately afterward, Chen Xiaoxia's figure also disappeared from the air.
In the sky, there was no trace of the two people; only the sound of clashing weapons remained in the air.
In this state of Speed Demon, Chen Xiaoxia's thoughts were racing.
This stalemate cannot continue. The Power of Hope collected by the Magic Network is limited. Once this limit is exceeded, even if Chen Xiaoxia can maintain the Shining 2 form, she will not be able to exert the same power as she does now.
They must end the battle quickly!
But... what should I do?
Chen Xiaoxia began to think. Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Yu Muqiu, who was fighting the Blood Demon at the bottom. Seeing that she and the Blood Demon seemed to be taking a break, Chen Xiaoxia suddenly had an idea.
'Xiao Qiu! Find a few seconds to pour all your magic into me!'
Within a short time, Chen Xiaoxia Telepathy to Yu Muqiu.
Yu Muqiu was slightly taken aback. He looked up at Chen Xiaoxia, who was fighting the Paranoid Demon in the air, and immediately understood what was going on.
She didn't ask why, nor did she ask Chen Xiaoxia what she wanted to do; she simply replied to Xiaoxia with a single sentence:
'Okay, wait for my hint!'
'Um!'
