Chapter 1158: Chapter 1158: Accidentally Swallowed the Water Spirit Pearl
Qin Sisi recalled what Ye You had said: since it was dangerous to touch the Water Fire Spirit Pearl directly with skin, she used the man in black cloak’s eagerness for the Water Fire Spirit Pearl to lure her into doing so. Taking advantage of the injury he sustained, she launched an attack.
The man in black cloak’s eyes, beneath the ghastly white mask, revealed a venomous gleam. Without hesitation, he raised both palms, summoning a magic shield in front of him to block Qin Sisi’s attack.
However, Qin Sisi’s attack was rely a distraction. In the next mont, the wave of fire magic energy she unleashed collided with the man in black cloak’s shield, and Qin Sisi seized the opportunity to snatch the fallen Water Fire Spirit Pearl from the ground and dart deeper into the cave.
She knew full well that this man in black cloak was a Magic God, and with her current Magic Spirit-level strength, she was no match for him in direct combat.
Yet, the mont she picked up the Water Fire Spirit Pearl, she experienced an indescribable, searing pain. Half her body was frozen numb, while the other half felt as though it was being scorched black.
Either form of pain alone was unbearable, and combined, it beca almost intolerable.
Quivering, Qin Sisi gritted her teeth and forced herself to endure, fleeing the man in black cloak as swiftly as she could.
But the man in black cloak reacted quickly, his gaze darkening as he slashed toward Qin Sisi with a Wind Sky Slash.
Feeling the overwhelming surge of magical energy from behind, Qin Sisi hurriedly turned and cast a Solid as Golden Soup magic shield for defense. Yet, her strength fell short, and the shield was quickly shattered. The ensuing shockwave sent her flying back dozens of ters before she landed heavily on the hard ground.
The hand clutching the Water Fire Spirit Pearl was now almost numb. Under the imnse impact, Qin Sisi’s grasp faltered. Though the Fire Spirit Pearl remained in her hand, the Water Spirit Pearl slipped out and fell to the ground.
The man in black cloak chuckled coldly, darting forward to pick up the dropped Water Spirit Pearl. However, recalling the pain it had caused earlier, he hesitated. Instead, he retrieved a small bottle from his storage ring, intending to place the Water Spirit Pearl inside.
Just as he was about to seal it, the Water Spirit Pearl suddenly flew up on its own and sped toward Qin Sisi.
Startled, the man in black cloak looked up, realizing that it was none other than Qin Sisi—imitating the technique he had used earlier—manipulating the Water Spirit Pearl with the Thousand Wind Swirls magic skill to pull it toward herself.
"Damn it!" the man in black cloak cursed under his breath, hastily casting Thousand Wind Swirls to drag the Water Spirit Pearl back in his direction.
This ti, however, Qin Sisi was clearly at a disadvantage. Already injured by the man in black cloak’s Wind Sky Slash, and with the fiery heat of the Fire Spirit Pearl burning her hand, her entire palm had turned a charred black.
The Water Spirit Pearl began moving gradually toward the man in black cloak. Qin Sisi grew anxious but felt powerless—when all was said and done, she simply wasn’t strong enough.
The man in black cloak, dissatisfied with the sluggish speed, used one hand to maintain Thousand Wind Swirls while forming a quick set of seals with the other. He then launched a volley of Ice Arrow Rain toward Qin Sisi.
anwhile, Ye You and Tian Xiaozi were locked in a fierce, evenly-matched battle. Noticing the life-and-death scenario playing out on Qin Sisi’s side, Ye You quickly sent an attack toward Tian Xiaozi to buy ti. While Tian Xiaozi was forced to defend, Ye You directed a Holy Fire Illusion Sword at the man in black cloak.
Ye You’s montary distraction presented Tian Xiaozi an opening. Black flas imbued with destructive power roared toward Ye You.
Ye You hurriedly summoned magical energy and ford a shield before him. However, the shield, conjured in such haste, lacked sufficient strength and shattered almost imdiately.
Struck by Tian Xiaozi’s Hell Flas, Ye You staggered back several steps, a trickle of fresh blood appearing at the corner of his lips.
The Holy Fire Illusion Sword Ye You aid at the man in black cloak was a fraction too late; by then, the man in black cloak’s Ice Arrow Rain had already pierced toward Qin Sisi.
However, Ye You’s Holy Fire Illusion Sword arrived the very next second. The man in black cloak was forced to abandon Thousand Wind Swirls and erect a magic shield to defend himself.
With the man in black cloak’s pull on the Water Spirit Pearl disrupted, Qin Sisi’s Thousand Wind Swirls regained dominance, and the pearl shot rapidly toward her.
The Ice Arrow Rain reached Qin Sisi a mont before the Water Spirit Pearl, stabbing into her shoulder. Undeterred, Qin Sisi, determined to claim the Water Spirit Pearl, ignored the attack entirely.
The bone-chilling pain made her throw her head back and cry out, but her Thousand Wind Swirls didn’t falter. The Water Spirit Pearl streaked toward her and, as if guided by fate, flew straight into her mouth and lodged in her throat.
Caught off guard, Qin Sisi instinctively swallowed, and the Water Spirit Pearl slipped down her throat into her stomach.
An intense, frigid cold surged up from her abdon, sweeping through her five viscera and six bowels. Qin Sisi began to shiver uncontrollably, as though she had plunged into an icy abyss.
The unexpected developnt left both Tian Xiaozi and the man in black cloak montarily stunned, staring blankly at Qin Sisi.
Ye You’s face turned pale. He leapt to Qin Sisi’s side, urgently asking, "Sisi, are you okay?"
Qin Sisi, her face ashen, trembled as she handed the Fire Spirit Pearl to Ye You. She wanted to speak but was shaking so violently that no words ca out.
Looking at Qin Sisi’s charred, rigid hand, Ye You’s expression twisted with both anguish and fury. Gritting his teeth, he accepted the Fire Spirit Pearl, letting it scorch his own hand until it turned black as well.
"Phoenix Fire!" Ye You roared, channeling all his fire attribute magic power through the Fire Spirit Pearl in his grasp.
Though he could not yet fully command the Fire Spirit Pearl, its affinity with Divine Fire amplified the power of his magic as it passed through.
An elegant, majestic phoenix burst into existence, its body ablaze with purple flas. Circling Ye You once, it let out a resonant cry before hurtling toward Tian Xiaozi.
Sensing the extraordinary energy behind "Phoenix Fire," Tian Xiaozi’s expression grew grave. He retreated so distance before summoning his magic to defend himself.
Ye You turned slightly, casting another Holy Fire Illusion Sword toward the man in black cloak. The man, weaker in strength, was not worth expending greater magical energy on.
Predictably, the man in black cloak dared not confront the attack head-on. He turned and flew toward Tian Xiaozi, attempting to use him as a shield against Ye You’s assault.
With Qin Sisi’s life hanging by a thread, Ye You’s intention was not to kill.
As Tian Xiaozi and the man in black cloak retreated so distance, Ye You raised the Phoenix Scepter and unleashed a Hell Fire Thunder Hamr upon the roof of the Yin-Yang Cave.
The Yin-Yang Cave, which had absorbed the essence of heaven and earth for countless years, along with the spiritual energy of the Water Fire Spirit Pearl, had stone walls far harder than ordinary rock.
Nevertheless, under the divine artifact-powered full-force strike of a Magic God, the cave’s roof collapsed instantly.
