Chapter 366: Battle of the Toys (End)

“The blade covers fifty percent, the manipulation of Qi is seventy percent, and it combines to such a powerful force...” Feng Bujue commented, “Looks like... the previous me does not even have the qualification to meet you in a match.”

As he spoke, he activated the Body Enhancement Spell and used Geppo to pick up speed. His body turned to real to fake as he lunged at Passing Rain. Passing Rain’s gaze shifted, and the killing instinct chilled her mind. Holy Seal spun upward, and whirling slashes cut like wind. Feng Bujue was not forced back. He countered it with Kankyaku and kicked out an arc of dark energy.

With a cling, the two slashes collided in midair. The energy exploded and the energy wave blasted all over. Feng Bujue, who was in the air, was affected more greatly. He was forced back for quite a distance. After that collision, he was forced into the defensive.

“That’s not all,” Passing Rain said and maneuvered the blade again. The blade auras layered upon themselves like waves. Passing Rain was swift with her moves. The single blade appeared to have multiple into a wall of blades.

“This is to be expected...” Feng Bujue said lazily. He used Geppo to stabilize himself and kicked out more than ten Kankyaku to meet the blade auras that rushed at him. By then, the fire alarm at the ceiling had stopped, but the humidity around them was still high. The attacks from both exploded in the air, creating a haze of mist, a rare spectacle during a deadly battle.

This is not good... She is much better than I expected, Feng Bujue thought to himself. Even though on the surface, he presented a front that said, ‘I am unbeatable’, but in reality, he knew that... the strength and speed that he gained after transformation was only three times his usual stats. This state of improvement was not so different from the effect of the Body Enhancement Spell, but Descent of War Demon came with the buff of tripling his Life Points and causing his Stamina Points and Sorcery Points to go bottomless. So, he could use skills that had no cooldown like Geppo and Kankyaku as often as he wanted. Other than that, if he activated Body Enhancement Spell, the buff would add onto his current buff, so his power level would be six times his previous state. But even so, he found himself to be matching Passing Rain in her ability only.

Because of... Soul’s Eye.

First, we shall discuss Feng Bujue. His Soul’s Eyes was a continuous ‘instantaneous simulation’. This power looks similar to Kenbunshoku Haki, but they are actually completely different things.

Instantaneous simulation was not a prediction of the enemy’s hostile intention but after the attack had occurred, the simulation would calculate the most effective solution based on all the factors and carry it out perfectly and accurately.

Inside the ball of dark energy, a red flower bloomed. Feng Bujue activated Body Enhancement Spell, with Geppo, he burst forward intending to kill. This speed and presence were not something that Passing Rain could stop with her blade aura. Seeing that, Passing Rain calmed herself. She maintained her stance, she took on a defensive state, slanting her blade, defending while finding a chance to counter. With one step, Feng Bujue borrowed the pull of gravity, holding several poker cards in both of his hands. Golden glints showered the sky. The cards all aimed for the fatal spots, and one cut could end Passing Rain’s life.

Passing Rain scoffed and her blade blossomed like a lotus. She cut down the cards and as they came into contact. The battlefield rang with metal clanks.

Feng Bujue used that opportunity to take one more step forward to enter the close space around Passing Rain. In that moment, they were the closest they had ever been. They knew each other’s ultimate and knew what the other was going to do.

Flying Dragon Fist was Feng Bujue’s ultimate. With the buff from Descent of War Demon and Body Enhancement Spell, it was undeniably his ultimate, a normal boss would not have a chance to survive this blow.

And Passing Rain’s ultimate was naturally a blade style—The Hail After Seven Suns.

Both used their best skill and pushed their skill, status, and Soul’s Eye into their best condition. The punch and blade weaved in the air, breaking and clashing. In this moment that seemed to freeze, the expression of the two was filled with smiles.

These two that couldn’t be considered normal in real life seemed to find a kindred spirit in one another in that moment. A strange communicative method that only they could understand... and they were enjoying themselves.

Several seconds later, the skill ended...

The fist and blade stopped; the match had been decided.

Finally, only a person stood at the top of the shelf and the other had already dissolved in a pool of white light.

“Current quest completed; all main quest completed. You have completed this scenario, auto-teleportation in 180 seconds.”

Hearing that, Feng Bujue gave a long sigh. He lowered his head at his hands that were muddied with blood, there were fresh cuts and some bones that were poking out. “Hmm... If I was not in a demonized state, her blade skill would definitely have stopped my skill in its tracks...”
