Chapter 240: Tai Yi Sheng Shui, Thunder Creates (Please subscribe, read, vote and comment)
"This guy is the city soul of Los Angeles!"

Constantine reminded Martin loudly, not wanting the Taoist priest to be defeated by the city spirit because of underestimating the enemy.

Among all the enemies he encountered, this kind of spirit was the most difficult to deal with. These guys were highly bound to a certain place and were simply like cockroaches that could not be killed.

Unfortunately, these spirits are very stubborn. They are either too simple and only maintain one idea, or too complicated and think too much, eventually becoming crazy.

Sometimes, Constantine didn't know what he wanted to see, so he avoided these guys.

“I didn’t expect that the city spirit of Los Angeles would be a woman!”

Constantine smacked his lips twice, a look of regret on his face, as if he was savoring the woman's figure.

Martin made sword gestures with both hands, and the Double Dragon Sword turned into ten, ten turned into a hundred, and a hundred turned into a thousand. Countless sword shadows passed through the narrow toilet and turned into a torrent of flying swords, crushing directly towards the Spirit of Los Angeles with the most primitive and violent posture.

Mount Shu connects to the divine realm above and the human world below, so naturally it has a deep understanding of the spiritual creatures born naturally between heaven and earth.

Even if Constantine hadn't shouted that, he would not have underestimated the spirit born from a city with a population of four million.

Moreover, right from the start, he used up 80% of his power, not only activating the Ten Thousand Swords Technique and the Tiangang Fighting Qi, but also each flying sword had a talisman drawn by Martin using the Tiangang Qi on the tip of the sword.

Tianshi Fufa is a collection of talismans compiled by Shushan. In addition to the talismans created by Shushan, it also collects talismans from the three mountains and five peaks sects, so that disciples can face various troubles.

The Spirit of Los Angeles is similar to the traditional City God of the University of Tokyo, but she is a creature naturally created by human consciousness, unlike the City God canonized by the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor of Man.

It is impossible that with just one spell, the spirit of Los Angeles would bow down obediently like the city god.

So Martin drew sealing spells in the air with his hands, calling on the five kinds of spiritual energy of wind, water, fire, earth, and thunder to surge out from five directions and transform into a huge cage, in an attempt to separate the Spirit of Los Angeles from the city beneath it first.

If this step cannot be done, Martin's alternative is to run.

"Poor mortal, do you think these little things can hurt me?"

The Spirit of Los Angeles laughed loudly. She did not dodge the swords and talismans flying towards her. She grabbed the blue water spirit bead, and immediately a rolling wave rushed out from the void.

The flying swords shot by Martin collided with the tide summoned by the Spirit of Los Angeles. First, the talismans were washed away by the waves, and then the flying swords were washed out with holes, like corroded reefs, and were about to disappear in the sea.

Although the Double Dragon Sword had two dragon patterns on it, it still seemed fragile in front of the power of the Water Spirit Pearl. After letting out a wail, it was bounced away.

Martin's eyes widened, he grabbed the Double Dragon Sword with one hand and hit Constantine on the head with the other.

"Stop being fucking horny. If you can't find a way to stop that woman, run away!"

Constantine shook his head decisively and firmly: "I have a way, but you will definitely not like it!"

nonsense!

Martin didn't even want to know what his idea was. It was just a change of pace. He grabbed Constantine's shoulders and rushed out of the toilet like a flash of sword.

"Brother, we've met a tough guy. Take everyone and leave immediately!"

When Taiwu heard Martin say that it was difficult to deal with, he immediately swung the whisk in his hand, and the white filaments split into hundreds of strands, grabbed the people in the bar, and flew them out of the bar.

Hearing the enemy approaching, Rachel jumped out clutching the Thunder Spirit Pearl, shouting, "Where is the enemy? I want him to experience the power of thunder!"

"Stop messing around and leave with me!"

Martin grabbed Rachel and flew straight out of the bar with her.

The Spirit of Los Angeles, which had mastered the Water Spirit Pearl, pursued relentlessly, and the surging waves directly melted the entire bar, as if the building had never existed.

"Mortals who don't belong to Los Angeles, hand over the beads that belong to me, and I can reserve a place for you in this city!"

Martin listened to the roar of the Spirit of Los Angeles and felt like he was listening to the arguments of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

He ignored the other party's nonsense and threw Constantine in his hand onto the roof. The sword energy surrounding him began to merge with the dance of his sword fingers.

"Eat my sword!"

Martin turned around, and the thousands of swords that were separated into a giant sword more than ten meters long fell from the sky, squeezing the air, raising a huge sword energy and strong wind, and smashed directly on the head of the Spirit of Los Angeles.

This is not a heavenly sword, but an ordinary sword energy slash!
Boom!

In order to prevent the sword energy from being melted by the power of the Water Spirit Pearl, Martin directly detonated the power of the sword energy before the giant sword fell. The sword energy mixed with the power of the Tiangang fighting energy flew like raindrops, and beat the Spirit of Los Angeles, who had turned into a water giant, into a sieve.

Such a move did not cause any effective damage to the Los Angeles Spirit who controlled the Water Spirit Pearl.

But it served to delay the opponent.

Tai Wu threw the people in the bar onto the building next to him, made hand seals, chanted spells that reached the ears of the heavens, and mobilized the abundant water-based spiritual energy in the air.

A chill surged out in front of Taiwu, and abundant water-based spiritual energy was drawn into it, flowing into it and gradually transforming into a crystal clear ice lotus.

Then, he pushed his hands forward, and ice lotus flew towards the Los Angeles Spirit, who had to shrink in size to fill the void in his body.

As the ice lotus flew forward, it grew larger and larger, and soon it was more than ten feet in size. Layers of petals overlapped and bloomed, then slowly fell off and exploded, emitting a violent burst of cold air.

The Spirit of Los Angeles might have quickly mastered how to use the magical Water Spirit Pearl, but she had no idea how to turn this power into an advantage in battle.

So, before she could react, Taiwu's Water Spirit Magic had completely enveloped the Spirit of Los Angeles, turning her into a giant ice sculpture.

Martin wiped the sweat from his forehead, landed on the roof with Rachel, threw out the Double Dragon Sword, and stopped Constantine who wanted to escape.

"Things have come to this point, where can you run to?"

Constantine felt the hairs on his neck stand up when he heard Martin's cold voice. He turned around and said flatteringly, "How could I possibly run away? Everyone knows that I, Constantine, am very loyal."

"Less talking, more thinking!"

Martin really didn't have the heart to worry about Constantine.

He thought of many possibilities, but he never expected that the Water Spirit Pearl would fall into the hands of the City Spirit.

After failing to hit her, the woman fled without hesitation, leaving only an empty shell of ice, which was meaningless except for being beautiful.

Then, he looked at Taiwu and said in a deep voice, "Brother, with our current means, it is almost impossible to capture that spirit and take out the Water Spirit Pearl."

Taiwu nodded in agreement.

"I'm here!"

Rachel said unconvincedly: "He has the spirit beads in his hand, and I also have the spirit beads. With Martin and Senior Brother Taiwu, why can't we subdue him?"

Because Taiyi produces water!

Taiyi gave birth to water, and water in turn supported Taiyi, thus forming heaven. Heaven in turn supported Taiyi, thus forming earth. Heaven and earth supported each other again, thus forming the gods. The gods supported each other again, thus forming yin and yang.

To put it simply, the Water Spirit Pearl has the ability to restore all things to their essence.

The Spirit of Los Angeles may not know this theory, but she has indeed been able to do it preliminarily.

Of course, the five spirit beads all came from the hands of the goddess Nuwa. The Thunder Spirit Pearl also has its own strengths.

As the saying goes, thunder and lightning are the pivot of yin and yang, the fundamental power that commands all things. Therefore, without thunder and lightning, there is no way to rule over the three realms.

Therefore, thunder is a category, and it is this that gives rise to all kinds of things and creates all kinds of things. It is the origin of life and death.

But Rachel couldn't do that, and neither could Martin.

Although he has a deep study of magic, he is not a descendant of Nuwa, nor is he a chosen one. Although he can utilize the spiritual energy in the beads, he cannot do that yet.

Tai Wu said: "The only solution now is to find the three spirit beads of wind, fire and earth as soon as possible, gather the power of the four spirit beads, force the spirit to surrender, and then take out the water spirit bead."

Although this plan sounds very simple, it is indeed the best method at present.

The Ghost of Los Angeles is elusive, and it would be a waste of time for Martin and Taiwu to search the whole city for her.

"If you ask me, I shouldn't have dodged just now. I would have directly smashed the thunder on that woman and would have definitely knocked her down."

Rachel pumped her fist in excitement.

She had just gained superpowers, and everything she saw seemed very new to her. She was eager to show off her strength.

Martin shook his head: "The Los Angeles Spirit has existed for hundreds of years. The power she has accumulated is extraordinary, so she can maximize the power of the Water Spirit Pearl."

"You think I'm not as good as that woman?"

Rachel was now in a state of anxiety and fear. When she heard Martin's refusal, her confidence turned into self-doubt.

"The power contained in your body is no less than that spirit, but you lack the ability to bring it out. This is why I didn't let you take action."

Martin gave a very reasonable reason, and Rachel was relieved.

"The city spirit has clearly been influenced by the Water Spirit Pearl and has a special obsession with finding other spirit pearls."

Tai Wu frowned slightly. "This has never happened before in the records of Shushan's Spirit Pearl holders. Even between Spirit Pearls, when they are close together, there will only be a resonance, not mutual attraction."

"Junior brother, is it coming towards you?"

Taiwu knew Martin's identity and was also aware that certain things would always happen to him or around him out of control.

"Brother, this is truly a critical moment for our survival."

Martin said in a deep voice, "Let's not talk about the other four spirit beads for now. The Los Angeles spirit holds the water spirit bead. If she wants to control the city and flood it with seawater, who can stop her?"

He did not mention his own safety. It was not that Binhai did not care, but that he was confident that he could ensure his own safety.

Seeing that he was unwilling to mention his identity, Tai Wu did not say it explicitly and continued to look for the spirit pearl: "Then please tell us about the two clues we have!"

Martin pulled Constantine over and said, "One clue is the circus. Last night, someone saw a very famous circus rehearsing for a performance. Suddenly, a whirlwind appeared and disappeared in the blink of an eye."

"The other one involved a cult whose fundraising party was interrupted by an earthquake."

"circus?"

Constantine perked up instantly. He lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, and then said, "I have a friend who performs in the circus, and she's also a magician. I can ask her for information. No news can be hidden from her eyes and ears."

Constantine's friend is of course the famous female sorceress Zatanna Zatara.

Given Constantine's style of doing things, when he is on a mission, he will trick even a dog passing by on the street.

Even though most people who study magic are loners and mentally ill, few wizards can withstand Constantine's extreme deception.

Zatanna is one of them. She comes from a family with a long history of learning. Her ancestor is a great figure like Leonardo da Vinci. Her family has inherited the magic of irony, and her father is a great wizard.

No matter how you look at it, he's better than Constantine, the guy who summons demons with just a notebook.

But the two eventually became friends miraculously, and Constantine received a lot of help from Zatanna during the exorcism mission.

"Okay, let's go together!"

Martin was mainly worried about the cult issue. Those guys were able to hold a banquet openly in Los Angeles, which showed that they were no small fry.

Rushing in rashly may not be effective and it will be difficult to escape unscathed. If you can't find anything, it will alert the enemy and make them prepare in advance.

But the circus is different. It is a place for people to visit. Even if there is one more or one less person, it cannot be seen at all. Naturally, it becomes the best way to cover up.

Just do it!

Martin took Rachel, Taiwu took Constantine, and they turned into two sword lights and headed straight for the theater in the city center, where an excellent performance was being staged.

……

Inside the theater, Zatanna's magic show has come to an end.

This famous magician in the DC world did not use any magic during his magic performances. He only used techniques to present wonderful performances to the audience.

When Zatanna's performance came to an end, she took off her hat and performed her final performance.

"Next, I'd like to invite an audience member to accompany my performance!"

She looked around the audience, finally focusing her gaze on Ian and reaching into her top hat.

Rabbit in the hat?
This is a very classic magic trick that the audience recognizes at first glance.

They were all disappointed that the final magic trick was just a simple "rabbit from a hat" trick, and felt that this wonderful show would end in failure.

Standing on the stage, Zatanna silently recited the family's irony magic, and the next moment, her huge palm appeared above the audience seats.

"My goodness!"

Amid the audience's exclamations, one of the audience members was caught, shrunk rapidly, and landed in the female magician's hands, only the size of her palm.

"Wow..."

The audience was shocked by this miraculous scene and clapped their hands to express their surprise.

"Recover!"

Zatanna then put Ian on the ground, uttered some difficult syllables, and in the flashing purple light, she restored the captured person to normal size.

The entire auditorium was boiling with excitement. Even citizens in big cities could hardly see magic, so they were naturally very excited.

Zatanna maintained her magician's demeanor and bowed to the audience in farewell.

At this moment, he happened to catch a glimpse of Constantine, hastily ended the last link, and walked into the backstage.

　I'm home for the Dragon Boat Festival holiday today, so I only have 4,000 words! Please forgive me.
