The Unreturning Formation
The four Giant Spirit, with their numerical advantage, launched a relentless, layered attack on Bai Mo. Since they were both controlled by Qin Hong's mind, there was naturally no mishap in their coordination.
Upon closer inspection, Bai Mo leans more towards defense than offense.
Bang bang bang, fist shadows flew everywhere. Qin Hong's Ultimate Infinity clashed with the Eighteen Levels of Hell. Blade energy and fist power collided in the sky. Several attacks passed the Great Blade Martial God and hit Bai Mo.
From the side, the massive Oga Giant Spirit, like a cannonball, unleashed its Whale Dominates the World Orca Tyrant Fist, landing heavily on Bai Mo.
Bai Mo thrust out with both hands, unleashing the power of the Zen-shaking Samsara. The Giant Spirit's tower-like arms instantly erupted with immense energy. With a deafening boom, Bai Mo was sent flying backward.
Along the way, the Giant Spirit Landao Tianwu instantly appeared behind him, his palms coming together like a sharp arrow. He used the Imperial Extremity Cloud-Piercing Arrow technique even better than Landao Tianwu himself at the time.
With a snap, Bai Mo's neck was cut open, blood flowing freely, and his head was just a hair's breadth away from being severed.
Like a dolphin leaping out of the sea, Bai Mo withdrew from the encirclement. He wiped his neck with one hand, Asura Undying Body restored his injuries.
The War God of the opposing side, Qin Hong, glanced at the distant cave with some concern.
"Aren't you in a completely advantageous position right now? Why do you seem a little anxious?"
Bai Mo spoke slowly, and Qin Hong snorted coldly upon hearing this.
"Shut up. That last strike almost took your head. Soon, your head will be on the ground. Then, I'll make good use of your precious head."
"The head is right here, why don't you come and get it?"
Bai Mo patted his neck; Qin Hong was already having a headache. From the start of the battle, Bai Mo had been almost entirely on the defensive, using the Triple War God combined with the Asura Way, which meant that although Qin Hong could injure or even severely damage him at times, she just couldn't kill him.
Meanwhile, underground, Hinako Akuta and Qin Liangyu were already relentlessly wiping out the Dream-Creating Beast Group. These mindless creatures were no match for them.
In the passage, a white figure, like a fish, surged upwards towards the Dream-Creating Beast Group Ritsuka's path, arriving squarely in the middle of the team. The next moment—
With a deafening boom, the beastmen were either killed or wounded, and those who were still alive lay on the ground, groaning in pain.
The White Ash Spear swept past, ending her life. Qin Liangyu and Ritsuka watched as Hinako Akuta's lips twitched. She used the same trick again, charging into the beast pack once more, followed by another loud bang.
It's good that they can't die; they can just self-destruct at will. Even Qin Hong herself was bleeding from that attack, let alone this Dream-Creating Beast Group.
Qin Liangyu had also exchanged martial arts skills with many soldiers of the Great Qin. Although she was limited by resources and her strength was not high, she could easily deal with these unintelligent guys.
"You bastards who stole Xiang Yu's mantle... I'll blow you all up!"
The constant explosions and deaths left the beastmen with no space to hide in the narrow passage.
"At this rate, she should arrive here in about half an hour."
The Projection of Landao Tianwu looked at the monitor, where Hinako Akuta was making threats at the camera, and slowly spoke. Beside him were Qin Hong, who was covered in sweat, and Kuaiji Type Zero, whose head was attached to a bunch of things.
Its eyes gleamed as it searched rapidly across the large central screen, where countless numbers were being calculated at breakneck speed. The screen background displayed a map of the entire Great Qin, with a crosshair, resembling a GPS coordinate, constantly scanning the area.
Bai Mo guessed correctly. If this split-thinking approach to combat relies on Magecraft, then this Magecraft has definitely taken over all of Qin Hong's brain's computational abilities.
He was now as if welded to the chair, maintaining the presence of the four Giant Spirit before him.
If the Giant Spirit were to be sent to provide support, it would inevitably expose a weakness, and Bai Mo, who had been on the defensive, would unleash a merciless Avici Uninterrupted. Faced with this unreasonable and powerful attack, Qin Hong was truly helpless.
The current situation is a stalemate; either Hinako Akuta will break through to Qin Hong's location, or Bai Mo will be unable to hold on.
As for Bai Mo winning... in Qin Hong's view, that was impossible.
These four Giant Spirit are incredibly powerful and work together seamlessly. The only pity is that they are not yet fully mature. If one could obtain the brains of these four powerful Giant Spirit to share the burden with Qin Hong, or obtain a sample even better than that of Hinako Akuta, then they would be four invincible beings.
Four absolute champions who defend the dream of blue!
Bai Mo's attention remained focused on the invisible Giant Spirit, his intuition telling him that this Giant Spirit was the most dangerous. But for some reason, its attacks were completely devoid of any specific moves, almost entirely random and unpredictable.
He muttered to himself:
"It's alright, just drag it out. I need time right now, the more the better. Reines, I'm counting on you..."
"We need time..."
Landao Tianwu in the basement said the same thing, but the next moment, Qin Hong let out a low growl of pain.
"Qin Hong? What happened? Wait, this is..."
A change occurred. Above, facing another siege, Bai Mo activated his power. This time, instead of passively attacking, he took the initiative to strike against the Giant Spirit Oga's attack.
Why is this? Both Qin Hong and Landao Tianwu's Projection were puzzled, but the next moment, a sudden change occurred!
A bright Mingyue slowly rose between heaven and earth, and the Daichi beneath the Giant Spirit's feet seemed to have become a pool of water deep in the mountains. On the highest airship, Reines stretched out one hand; from this height, she could easily shield everything happening below with her hand.
Reines inherited her Spirit Origin from Sima Yi, and her Noble Phantasm is quite unique, which can be referred to as a Joker technique in battle.
[The Unreturning Formation] When the illusory sun and moon appear from the horizon, the opponent's strengths will be destroyed, and their weaknesses will be exposed.
This Noble Phantasm is not geared towards combat, but like Sima Yi himself, it constantly waits for the right opportunity, delaying until the opponent makes a mistake, delaying until the most favorable opportunity appears, and then delivering a fatal blow.
When facing an opponent that has been defeated before or an opponent against whom sufficient intelligence has been gathered, weaknesses can be created even if no weaknesses exist.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Bai Mo. Xu Fu Fuqin has worked very hard to provide me with information about Hinako Akuta, and now, that's enough."
As the light shone forth, Bai Mo knew all four Giant Spirit he faced, except for the invisible Giant Spirit that hadn't made a move. He knew both Oga and Landao Tianwu very well.
Xu Fu was very familiar with the data he used from Hinako Akuta, as well as the methods he employed in mental Magecraft.
At this moment, all the conditions have been met. Normally, such Noble Phantasm have many limitations, but in this kind of duel, even the smallest, most minute weakness can be extremely fatal.
This is a fulcrum that can move mountains, a deadly joker.
Limitless Tremor Zen repelled the Giant Spirit Oga before him, while at the same time, God-Severing Way, like a tidal wave, shattered the entire body of the Landao Tianwu Giant Spirit. Bai Mo switched from defense to offense, fighting with all his might, and in the blink of an eye, he had arrived in front of the Qin Hong Giant Spirit.
