“Clang—!”
Amidst the sparks that erupted, a clear collision sound rang out. The razor-sharp slashes, akin to gracefully folding cranes, struck at an exceedingly cunning angle. They landed heavily on the pure white blade.
Shortly after, as if touching and departing, Toudou Kirin smoothly withdrew her attacks with a twirl, transitioning into another angle. Like a fleeting arc of light, she slashed towards Fang Li.
The movements were so fluid, they were truly astonishing.
As a result, Toudou Kirin’s Conjoined Cranes never stopped, creating a storm of sword edges that bore down on Fang Li, exerting tremendous pressure.
If this continued, Fang Li would eventually succumb to the increasingly rapid continuous strikes, wouldn’t he? That is if Fang Li didn’t have a solution.
Watching Toudou Kirin’s slash approaching like a beam of light, Fang Li finally increased the Prana within his body.
Dazzling starlight scattered like fragments from his body. However, Fang Li didn’t use this Prana to enhance his physical abilities; instead, it flowed like a stream, infusing into the pure white Starlux in his hand.
“Zing—!”
In the next moment, a dazzling white light radiated from Bo Xie’s Urm Manadyte. A significant amount of Prana was absorbed by Bo Xie, causing a data-like stream of light to suddenly appear along the blade. It spun down the length of the sword, finally injecting into the Urm Manadyte.
Seeing this scene, Toudou Kirin’s expression tensed, but her attacks showed no sign of hesitation. With the force of thunder, she brought Senbakiri down fiercely, slashing towards Fang Li.
It was at this moment that an anomaly occurred.
“Hu—!”
In a whistling rush of wind, the air around the pure white Starlux began to churn, forming gusts that swirled around Bo Xie’s blade. Through the Main God’s Dimension’s message, Fang Li had already learned that Bo Xie’s ability allowed it to alter the shape of things it touched and manipulate them.
At this moment, Fang Li used this ability, changing the direction of the airflow around Bo Xie. He transformed them into a powerful wind pressure that concentrated on the sword.
Shortly after, Fang Li, who had been continuously retreating, halted suddenly. He took a step forward and swung the pure white Starlux forcefully, just as Toudou Kirin’s slash collided with it.
“Boom—!”
This time, there were no sparking eruptions, no crisp collision sounds, just an explosive roar.
In that instant of collision, the immense wind pressure was released from Bo Xie’s blade, turning into a substantial shockwave that exploded upon contact with Senbakiri under Fang Li’s strike.
The formidable impact, accompanied by chaotic air currents and wind directions, sent Toudou Kirin flying as if struck by lightning, her petite body flicking through the air like a ball.
Fortunately, just before crashing into the wall, Toudou Kirin managed to adjust her posture mid-air and executed a somersault, landing gracefully on the ground.
“Oyaoya…”
Claudia exclaimed in amazement.
“What…!”
Toudou Kouichirou finally lost his composure, his eyes widening in disbelief.
Even Toudou Kirin looked at Fang Li in front of her with a grave expression, speaking with an air of incredulity.
“Conjoined Cranes was actually broken…”
“Clang—!”
Conjoined Cranes, famous for not ending until the opponent was defeated, was unexpectedly neutralized by Fang Li in this manner.
This was Toudou Kirin’s Profound Truth attack, the technique that had allowed her to become the top-ranked student in the Seidoukan Academy. Yet, it had just been shattered like this?
“Very strong…”
Whether Toudou Kirin was referring to Fang Li or Bo Xie, she raised Senbakiri once again, pointing it in Fang Li’s direction.
However, no one noticed that at this moment, Fang Li’s brows were furrowed tightly, as if he had sensed something amiss. If anyone could perceive Fang Li’s predicament, it was one person: precisely Fan Xinglou.
Gazing at Fang Li with his furrowed brow, Fan Xinglou seemed to understand something had happened. However, she didn’t say anything and continued to watch with great interest.
As for Fang Li, he remained silent for a while, then slowly raised Bo Xie in front of him.
“I guess even a Third-Rank weapon isn’t that easy to use…”
The recent strike had made Fang Li realize a few things.
First, although he could use this Third-Rank Ogre Lux thanks to Bo Xie’s will, he couldn’t fully unleash all of its power. There were two reasons for this. One, Fang Li had just acquired Bo Xie and hadn’t had time to become familiar with it.
Two, Fang Li’s own strength was insufficient to draw out all of Bo Xie’s abilities. In other words, despite being a third-rank weapon, Fang Li could only unleash power equivalent to a fourth-rank weapon at most.
Second, as an Ogre Lux, Bo Xie, like other Ogre Luxes, required a price for its usage, and that price was Prana. If Fang Li only used Bo Xie for close combat, it wouldn’t consume Prana.
However, as soon as he used Bo Xie’s abilities, it would consume Prana based on the magnitude of the ability used. The recent strike had depleted nearly a tenth of Fang Li’s Prana, indicating how quickly it could be exhausted if he continued using Bo Xie’s abilities.
“So, Third-Rank weapons aren’t that easy to use…”
However, at the same time, Fang Li had discovered a third thing. With the infusion of his Prana, not only could he change the shape of objects touched by Bo Xie but also Bo Xie itself.
“So, that’s why Master said Bo Xie is the most suitable weapon for me, right?”
Fang Li smiled faintly, tightly gripping Bo Xie’s hilt and slowly infusing it with Prana.
“Zing—!”
The pure white Ogre Lux immediately radiated a dazzling light. In the next moment, everyone witnessed it. In Fang Li’s hand, Bo Xie, originally the size of a one-handed sword, gradually shrank in the brilliance, eventually transforming into a dagger.
This was the weapon Fang Li was most skilled with.
“Clap…”
With a slight sound, Fang Li made a nimble rotation, and the transformed Bo Xie, now a dagger, was reversed in his palm.
Fang Li looked ahead at Toudou Kirin, his lips curving into a smile. Then, suddenly, Fang Li’s figure vanished on the spot.
“—!”
Toudou Kirin’s complexion finally changed.
