Chapter 114 Breaking the Vessel and Breaking Out

Chapter 114 Breaking the Vessel and Breaking Out

As soon as the knife fell, the opponent disappeared, and Ying had to observe the surroundings vigilantly.

Columbia didn't understand what was going on either, and she also couldn't sense Liu Bai's presence. It seemed that only she and Ying were left in the battle barrier.

call out--

The next moment Liu Bai appeared out of nowhere in front of Ying.

Although Ying did not expect it, her reaction was even faster than Liu Bai. When Liu Bai came to his senses after the teleportation, Ying's naginata was already approaching.

You can't use the teleportation skill casually, but Liu Bai has no other life-saving skills besides this skill...

No, there’s another one!

Thinking of this, Liu Bai immediately moved and used his head to meet Ying's naginata.

[↑Bronze Head: Reduces 20% head damage]

Ouch——!

Liu Bai let out a scream and disappeared out of thin air in front of Ying.

Fortunately, I was lucky this time and was not teleported outside the battle barrier.

"..."

Looking at Liu Bai who suddenly appeared, Columbia couldn't help but recall a not-so-pleasant memory three years ago.

That day, she was walking in the snowfield, accompanying the lost snow fairy.

At this moment, someone suddenly fell from the sky.

She felt nothing about it, she just looked up and watched him fall, waiting for his death.

Columbia is not greatly affected by death.

However, before the man was about to hit the ground, he suddenly disappeared.

Just when Columbia was puzzled, he suddenly appeared above Columbia's head, and the two heads collided with each other, leaving her unconscious.

"..."

Thinking of this, the little wings behind Columbia's head couldn't help but droop down again, and then she moved away from Liu Bai, who was covering his head, with light steps, seemingly happily.

"What kind of ability is this... But no matter what, it is not in the realm of martial arts. Have you already admitted defeat?"

Ying couldn't see through Liu Bai's ability to teleport twice, so he had to temporarily stop his attack and ask.

"…Hiss, I haven't lost yet, but you are much stronger than me. I really need to use some special methods to defeat you."

Liu Bai rubbed his head and stood up, knocking his head twice while talking to Ying.

[Golden Head↑: Reduce 60% head damage]

"It's up to you. Even if it's not just a contest of martial arts, I still accept your challenge."

Although he didn't know what ability Liu Bai was going to use, Ying still agreed, wanting to see how far this strange human could go.

"Hehe, even if I can't use concept skills, I still have other skills..."

Liu Bai whispered, then looked up into the sky.

While Ying was confused, Liu Bai immediately leaped up into the air and burst into a dazzling purple light.

Ying was a little surprised. When the purple light dissipated, he found that he could no longer find Liu Bai, so he had to observe his surroundings vigilantly.

But at this moment, a gentle voice suddenly sounded beside him.

"Ying, long time no see."

"..."

Hearing this voice, Ying's body trembled slightly, and he immediately turned his head in disbelief.

A woman who looked almost the same as Ying and wore a folding fan-shaped headdress on one side of her head appeared not far away.

Compared to Ying's pigtails, her long purple hair was tied behind her back with a pink shimenori rope, and she was also wearing a white and purple kimono.

But compared to Ying's modified style which was made for convenience in combat, her overly wide sleeves did not look suitable for combat at all, but were also more elegant.

She held a purple oil-paper umbrella in her hand, with the umbrella pole against her shoulder and the umbrella spread out behind her, with a few pink petals floating on the edge of the umbrella.

"real……"

Ying looked at her in disbelief, then immediately raised his right hand to support his forehead, trying to make sure he was awake.

She soon confirmed that she was awake and her mind was not further worn out.

But if that's the case, why would my sister appear in front of me...

Ying was a little confused.

Thousands of years ago, due to the still ignorant Inazuma people's fear of thunderstorms, a demon god was quietly born.

She looked up at the thunderstorm forming in the sky. Although she was a newborn, her eyes were full of wisdom and she was thinking about something.

At this time, the sky flickered in the thunderstorm, casting her shadow on the earth. In the shadow, another demon was born, and this was Shadow.

Shaking his head, Ying pulled his thoughts back from the past and looked at his sister, Raiden Zhen, seriously.

Although she couldn't see any flaws, she didn't think the other person was really her sister.

But can I swing the knife at her...

For some reason, Ying found it difficult to pick up the naginata in his hand. Even if the possibility was small, what if it was really his sister?

"Ying, you never hesitated before. Are you still determined to be eternal now?"

Seeing Ying's hesitation, Lei Dianzhen suddenly spoke.

"..."

Raiden Shin's words made Ying's hand, which was tightly gripping the weapon, subconsciously relax a little.

"Ah... Ying, hold your weapon tightly. Can't you tell whether the person in front of you is real or fake?"

Raidenjin sighed and said to Ying.

Ying was stunned for a moment, then he gripped the weapon in his hand tightly again.

But if the person in front of me is fake, why do I need to remind myself like this...

Although she gripped her weapon tightly, she was still somewhat confused.

In fact, not only Ying was puzzled, Liu Bai himself was also a little confused.

After using the seduction technique on Ying, she obtained some information about Lei Dianzhen out of thin air, just like she did last time on Nashida, allowing her to know who she was and the relationship between the person in front of her and herself, thus making it easier to achieve disguise.

But just like the last time when he couldn't help but hug Nashida, this time the message also carried some emotions. It was precisely because of the influence of these emotions that Liu Bai reacted like this, actively reminding Ying, not wanting to see her hesitation in holding the weapon.

"Didi, in order to facilitate the host's correct disguise, the system will absorb some of his emotions. Please rest assured, there will be no side effects."

Upon learning of Liu Bai's doubts, the system immediately gave a simple explanation.

"…Change back to your original form. I will use my last move to decide the outcome."

Ying pointed the naginata in his hand at Raiden Shin and said.

Although he was puzzled as to why the other party reminded him, Ying had already fully come to his senses.

He personally brought his sister's consciousness space back to Inazuma. As long as that consciousness space was still there, the person appearing in front of him would definitely not be his sister.

Lei Dianzhen looked at Ying and showed a smile on his face that Ying missed so much. Then his figure gradually disappeared, leaving only Liu Bai remaining in the same place.

Compared to Nashida who initially saw through the fact that the Great Tree King was actually Liu Bai in disguise, Ying did not feel angry, perhaps because it was pointed out by someone else, or perhaps the anger had been replaced by a bit of confusion.

But this did not affect her attack on Liu Bai. She put away the Nageda Rice Light in her hand, but a powerful lightning elemental force spread around her, filling the entire hall in an instant.

Columbia, who was watching the battle in the corner, had to raise his hands and hold up a shield similar to the ice element in front of him.

As the lightning raged, the floor tiles of the entire hall were shattered into powder, leaving only the battle barrier buried underground.

Ying raised her hand slightly, and a knife handle appeared from her chest, which she pulled upwards little by little.

Although she is not controlling the puppet's body now, when she was teleported here, she had already hidden her dream in her own body at the first moment.

"..."

Watching Ying slowly draw out the weapon named Mengxiang Yixin, Liu Bai felt the terrible pressure, as if he was facing Zhongli at the beginning.

There is a kind of pressure that cannot be avoided or escaped.

"Ding ding, it is detected that the host is about to lose, please pay attention."

"When the host first undertook the awakening mission, he used the Storm Style to repel the beast before the mission requirements were met."

"During the second awakening mission, the system was undergoing a system upgrade and was unable to help the host. However, based on the results, the host still completed the awakening without receiving the reward."

Just when Liu Bai felt tremendous pressure, the system suddenly issued a prompt.

"...You mean, I can realize awakening on my own during the mission, without relying on mission rewards?"

Liu Bai only realized this when he heard the system prompt.

“Didi, yes, only by breaking the vessel can we break out.”

"If the host relies too much on system rewards, it may be difficult to complete autonomous awakening."

The system's response confirmed Liu Bai's guess.

"Break the vessel and break out..."

Liu Bai muttered and looked back at the shadow that made him feel stressed.

At this time, Ying was about to pull out the Dream Heart in his hand, and his power was increased to the point where he could crush the floor tiles into powder with just the invisible pressure.

If there was no battle barrier, it would be hard to say whether the Winter Palace would still be there when she drew her weapon.

Under pressure, Liu Bai made sword gestures with his hands, and five flying swords appeared behind him.

Breaking Ultimate Weapon Blade, Light Sword Mastery, Light Sword Proficiency, Flowing Heart Madness, Iron Slashing Style, Ultimate Divine Swordsmanship...

Liu Bai quickly activated all his skills that could increase his power.

Some of them are "passive skills", that is, innate skills, but they are all supporting "Wuwo Sword Qi", so even if they are passive, they need to be actively activated after turning on Wuwo Sword Qi. At most, there is no time limit after activation.

"That should be enough..."

Liu Bai muttered to himself.

After activating the selfless sword energy, insights into sword techniques naturally emerged in his mind. These integrated sword techniques made him believe that he could meet the requirements of the system.

"No thoughts, no ideas..."

"Cut it off with one sword!"

When Ying completely pulled out Meng Meng Yixin, the entire battle barrier seemed to come to a standstill.

A sword strike without thoughts or ideas is the pinnacle of Ying's martial arts. When the state of without thoughts or ideas becomes more and more firm, the power it can exert will become even more powerful.

"No thoughts, no ideas..."

Liu Bai muttered.

"So it's another name for Wuxinwuwo..."

At this time, Shadow's lightning was already stagnant and pouring towards him.

Liu Bai took the initiative to greet him, and the lightsaber in his hand shone brightly.

When the state of being selfless and without mind becomes more firm, the selfless sword energy can also exert a stronger power.

At this moment, all that was left in Liu Bai's eyes was the insurmountable light from the sky that Shadow slashed out and the lightsaber in his hand.

At this time, the five flying swords behind Liu Bai flew out first, but they were instantly shattered in the skylight, turning into countless white fragments floating around.

Liu Bai took a deep breath and raised the lightsaber in his hand. The white debris in the sky streaked towards the lightsaber in his hand like meteors and chopped down along with the lightsaber!

[Mission failed, penalty: none]
