Chapter 792: Chapter 628: Nine Tails_2
“Wait a minute!”
“This should just be an accidental result of spatial change, as long as she is willing, it can be closed at any ti. The energy outside is very chaotic, and we would expose ourselves if we appear proactively under that woman’s gaze.”
“The reason we have been able to hide here undetected for so ti is not because our ability to conceal ourselves is outstanding.”
“The illusion protection of the Nine-tailed Fox is only one reason, more importantly, that woman has no awareness that there could be other creatures here besides herself.”
Roger finally concluded, “Trust , if we expose ourselves now, it will only arouse her alertness, and then the space will be sealed, trapping us here completely.”
This Nekomata’s strength is very strange; on the surface, it doesn’t even seem to compare with that peacock, which is completely inconsistent with her status.
Roger guessed that there must be a reason pertaining to Higurashi Gushan, but, more likely, it was also related to the Giant Dragon sleeping in the sky.
Most of her strength must be used to help the Giant Dragon or maintain this place.
Therefore, her own power was under multiple seals.
Only in the face of one crisis after another would she gradually release it.
But as long as you die a few tis, or even just overturn fate a few tis, the actual combat power of the Nekomata will reach a very terrifying level.
Unless necessary, Roger did not want to fight with her directly.
Even when beating a dog, one must look at the owner—behind this woman there stood a dragon.
“What should we do then?”
Caring causes chaos; Sword Master Funiu, although outwardly calm, was extrely anxious inside.
Opportunities were fleeting; next ti, the dragon might already be awake. By then, the changes in space would definitely reveal the passage and cracks they used to enter.
All the people of Qinglu Mountain would beco lost souls under the claws of the Giant Dragon.
“We need to give her sothing to worry about so that she doesn’t have the opportunity to notice this place.”
Having finished speaking, Roger led Sword Master Funiu away from their hiding place, their figures disappearing as they raced toward the lower levels of the building.
“Tell the thod to break the seal.”
At the bottom of his heart, Roger asked.
“Not yet…”
Uma was sowhat puzzled by Roger’s actions.
“Tell , I want to release the other Guardian Spirits.”
Halting his steps, Roger saw the Heavenly Eye Peacock bound in the center of the grand hall.
Then Uma’s voice reached him, given instructions, Roger flicked his finger, releasing energy enveloped in Spiritual Power, hiding a trace of his bloodline’s power.
This energy dispersed in all directions of the hall; once everything was ready, he left the grand hall and hid in a concealed dark spot.
With a thought, the scattered energies suddenly erupted, the impact of bloodline and Spiritual Power instantly disturbing the inherent balance within the grand hall.
The ground cracked, spreading to the walls and then striking the do at an incredible speed.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The writhing dragon patterns shattered under the external impact, the entire hall trembling, and then the peacock that was bound in the center slowly straightened up, with its wings spreading behind it; a brilliant light filled the entire space!
With a soft cry, its body spun rapidly, and with a strong push from its feet, it shot towards the do like an arrow released from a bow.
Feathers converged around it, piling up layer upon layer; without even getting close, weapons ford from feathers broke open a large hole in the roof.
The sound was clear and loud, the Heavenly Eye Peacock fully stretching its body, its third eye fixed on the hiding place of Roger and Sword Master Funiu.
A subtle emotion was transmitted, and in the next mont, it was already soaring high, rushing towards the location of the Nekomata.
anwhile, the changes in the lower levels also drew the Nekomata’s attention, her expression turning unpleasant.
While maintaining control over Higurashi Gushan, she stretched out her hand to manipulate the surrounding energy.
But this ti, with its bindings completely shed, the Heavenly Eye Peacock unleashed all its power; its agile body leaped, dodging the attacks of the Nekomata.
The light shooting from the eye on its forehead penetrated many building roofs.
Though its destruction was not complete, it triggered changes in the sealed Guardian Spirits; the Nekomata imdiately recognized the consequences of neglect.
Reluctantly retracting her energy from controlling Higurashi Gushan, she focused her attention on the peacock in the sky.
“Now’s our chance!”
Roger signaled to Sword Master Funiu, and taking advantage of the Nekomata being distracted, the two cautiously approached the passageway that led them here.
The spatial changes beca increasingly violent; Roger reached forward, and a surge of energy spread throughout his body, imdiately encasing both him and Sword Master Funiu.
“You go first, I’ll buy you so ti and try to keep the passageway stable,” he said.
Sword Master Funiu hesitated for a mont, his expression on his face was very peculiar; finally, he gave Roger a deep look.
“Western friend, although I do not know what lineage you carry, your actions have earned my respect,” he said.
“You have earned the friendship of Atlas!” he declared.
His gaze firm, Roger hadn’t anticipated that his behavior would lead Sword Master Funiu to such a misunderstanding, subsequently earning him imnse trust.
Allowing Sword Master Funiu to leave first was not because Roger was so noble that he truly wished to cover the rear; rather it was because he needed to rescue White Fox and achieve a goal before leaving.
Only, everything he was doing was perilous, and if discovered, he would be trapped here.
By then, with Shadow’s Touch, Roger could co and go freely, but if Sword Master Funiu stayed with him…
Well, that would truly be screwing soone over.
Deep within his consciousness, a notification appeared on the noticeboard.
“Young Demon Hunter, you have earned the friendship of a mighty warrior. You can set him as a permanent visitor, gaining corresponding strength and traits boosts!” it said.
“What a pleasant surprise!” he exclaid.
Without ti to check the specific trait boosts, Roger’s expression turned serious, “Your character is also respectable. In the face of danger, you’ve often stood in front of and were willing to face the peril head-on.”
“What I’m doing now is nothing in comparison.”
Then, changing the subject, “Hurry up, that peacock probably won’t hold out much longer.” As they talked, indeed, the peacock in the distant sky was falling into a disadvantageous position.
Unburdened by Higurashi Gushan, the trails of the Nekomata’s whip flew out, the afterimages sealing off the entire space. Even as the feathers of the peacock furiously tried to block, the area it could move in shrinked more and more.
Defeat was just a matter of ti.
Sword Master Funiu gave Roger a profound look, his figure gradually vanished.
Having sent Sword Master Funiu on his way, Roger returned to the great hall, and at that mont, the giant dragon patterns on the do were flickering with terrifying energy, the power contracting, increasing the suppression on Uma several folds.
“Get ready.”
Using the thod he’d used before, Roger released the energy; the ground quickly cracked, and this ti, due to the increased suppressing power, the resulting chain reaction was even more violent.
By the ti Uma broke free from the seal, the entire great hall was already at the brink of collapse.
“Let’s go!” Roger shouted, Uma’s body shrinking and leaping onto his shoulder. Just then, the entire hall completely crumbled.
But within a few breaths, space solidified, everything in view freeze-frad.
Roger looked up. The Nekomata had completely transford, her whole body enveloped in a blood-red glow. She appeared instantly, her twin whips moved autonomously, repelling the defensive feathers of the Heavenly Eye Peacock.
In a flash, she appeared behind the Heavenly Eye Peacock, her hand slicing into the body of the peacock like a blade!
Hiss!
The light emanating from the Heavenly Eye Peacock dimd, it let out a pitiful cry, but the sound coming from its throat ceased in the next second.
Crack!
The Nekomata ruthlessly twisted its neck, then ripped its head from its body!
Blood filled the air, a true Way of the Asura.
Now that the Heavenly Eye Peacock was dealt with, the Nekomata noticed Roger’s figure.
“It seems all the changes are because of you!” she hissed.
Whoosh!
Her body vanished in an instant and reappeared right before Roger, the whips moving flexibly like dragons as they wrapped around Roger’s limbs.
“How did you get in here?” she demanded.
Space trembled, the invisible force compressing; Roger felt as if he were fixed in midair.
At the sa ti, the Nekomata’s assault was imminent.
“Honestly, I’m quite curious,” a voice said.
The illusion dissipated, but Roger’s voice suddenly ca from a different direction, “Where exactly do you hide your nine tails?”
“Cough, cough.
“Although it’s embarrassing, I suppose I have no choice but to help you check…”
