Terrifying Heavens: I'll directly worship the Black Law of Fengdu!

Chapter 206 Spell Battle
Kotoko Higa originally wanted to enter Nozaki's dream to pull him out of his predicament, but she received a call from Li Xuan. For the first time, she felt the power of others through a phone call.

This man...

Although I don't know their names, they might be a very useful help.

The world is becoming increasingly chaotic, and various legends and evil spirits are springing up like mushrooms after rain in island nations, while demons and similar things are also emerging one after another abroad...

Kotoko Higa is very strong, but in the end, she is all alone.

She is not a god and cannot protect everyone with a single thought. She has seen many ordinary people die in front of her and often fails to arrive at the scene due to various obstacles, resulting in the exorcists dying tragically on the spot.

Powerless.

But she couldn't show it on her face; she had to maintain a calm and strong demeanor at all times, or at least appear to be.

The title of the island nation's number one exorcist carries great weight, so much so that it becomes a guiding light for many. Therefore, she absolutely cannot let her fame fade, just as she couldn't show any pain even when she was covered in wounds and on the verge of fainting...

Kotoko Higa walked to the bedside and gently stroked Makoto's face. Beneath her calm expression lay a deep sadness.

Makoto, from a young age, aspired to become an exorcist like her. In her pursuit of greater spiritual power, she even went so far as to harm herself, resulting in her inability to conceive and losing her chance to become a mother…

After half an hour.

There was a knocking sound on the ward door.

Kotoko looked at the door and said, "Please come in."

The door opened, and a young man walked in. He had delicate features; while not strikingly handsome, he was not mediocre either, just at the excellent level.

The young man, dressed in black and white casual sportswear, looked calm, as if he had already anticipated everything that was going to happen.

He looked at Qinzi and smiled, "Hello, my name is Li Xuan."

Hearing the same voice as on the phone, Higa Kotoko extended her hand and said, "My name is Higa Kotoko."

She grasped Li Xuan's hand, her whole body trembling slightly, as if struck by an invisible electric current. It was a strange feeling; was it magic or some kind of curse?

There is no spiritual energy sensing.

Isn't he an exorcist?

Kotoko Higa had some doubts about her judgment based on the phone call she had just received.

Li Xuan introduced himself: "My profession is Fengdu Judge, who presides over the judgment of ghosts, gods, good and evil. The main reason I came to this island nation is that you have an item that I desperately need."

Its name is 'Dragon and Tiger Image Mirror,' a product of the Song Dynasty in China, and also a ritual object capable of reflecting the true appearance of evil spirits.

Li Xuan is here to get his hands on that mirror!

Kotoko Higa's heartbeat instantly regained its steady rhythm. She glanced at Nozaki, who was sleeping by the bedside, then looked at her younger sister's face, making a few gestures with her index finger before saying to Li Xuan:
"Shall we find a quiet place outside to talk?"

"it is good."

Li Xuan said.

The two arrived at a quiet grove of trees outside the hospital. Because it was nighttime and the location was slightly eerie, few people came to play in such places.

Higa Kotoko walked ahead, then suddenly turned around, her hand flashing with a cold light as she aimed straight for Li Xuan's neck!

With such a sudden, sharp object pressed against the face, a normal person simply cannot react in time.

Li Xuan dodged it immediately.

When Kotoko Higa told him to leave the hospital and come to this place, he realized that this woman seemed to be highly wary of him. Kotoko Higa was quite skilled—swift and sharp!
She brandished her dagger, each attack so decisive, without a single wasted movement.

But Li Xuan was no weakling either. He moved steadily, shifting his body left and right to avoid the cold glint of light. Looking at Higa Kotoko, he softly uttered a single word: "Stay still."

This technique is so useful, the more you use it, the more addictive it becomes. In a battle between experts, even the slightest mistake can be the key to victory or defeat!

Higa Kotoko's attack faltered. Her heart pounded, and she realized she couldn't move. She immediately bit her tongue, blood filling her mouth, and silently chanted an incantation, channeling her spiritual power from within to impact every meridian and acupoint! Her stiff limbs recovered, and she immediately jumped back to create distance, preventing herself from being instantly killed.

Li Xuan wasn't a real enemy; otherwise, he would have shot her dead immediately if she had stopped.

When it comes to dealing with people, this thing is much faster than magic...

He took a deep breath, made a hand seal with his left hand, and exhaled a plume of white smoke from his mouth. The smoke dispersed in the air, forming a mist that spread out around the two people.

Kotoko Higa: "???"

Is this the kind of approach humans should take?

Our view is blocked, we need to get out of here quickly and find a windy place.

Following the route she had taken, she began to run without hesitation, forming hand seals and chanting incantations to ward off all kinds of demons and monsters.

Spiritual energy surrounds him to prevent sneak attacks.

Li Xuan stood in the mist, the effects of his spell not obstructing his vision. He took another deep breath and blew out, this time a gentle breeze...

These two moves are "creating mist" and "borrowing wind" from the Seventy-Two Arts.

Because the coverage area is small and it needs to be used more often, he studied the combination of the seventy-two arts to achieve the goal of high returns with low consumption...

A gentle breeze swirled the mist forward, swirling around Higa Kotoko. Although it posed no real threat, it followed the direction she was running.

Higa Kotoko's expression was serious. This was the first time she had encountered something like this; he was truly a troublesome person.

She took out her phone and dialed the island nation's government. Someone answered quickly; on the other end was a high-ranking official, the de facto ruler of the Tokyo area, who could easily mobilize many departments to cooperate...

The voice of the person in charge came through the receiver: "Ms. Kotoko, what are your instructions?"

Kotoko Higa, maintaining her running pace, said, "You immediately... beep beep beep." The signal suddenly dropped, and the phone felt heavy...

When she looked at it, she was surprised to find that the phone had turned into gold and was quite heavy.

Turning lead into gold, a legendary technique...

Li Xuan's voice rang out through the mist: "Miss Qinzi, I had no intention of hurting you. Please stop and let me explain."

Higa Kotoko still has to deal with the Po-Xiong Demon, so she can't start a fight with the inexplicable Li Xuan here.

Any injury that affects one's strength.

Both are unacceptable...

She stopped in her tracks, took a deep breath, and said, "Please speak."

As the surrounding mist slowly dissipated, Li Xuan stood three or four meters away and said with a smile, "Before this, a few friends may have come to Miss Qinzi to ask for a mirror. Their appearance was a bit unusual, which may have caused a misunderstanding for Miss Qinzi."

Let me explain for them: they are not vengeful ghosts, but rather underworld officials from our Chinese land, essentially staff members of hell. Because most of them work as ghosts, they look similar to ghosts.

Higa Kotoko remembered that a few years ago, several powerful ghosts dressed in black suits had been bothering her for several months. Their aura was astonishing. Fortunately, her barrier techniques were not to be underestimated. In a one-on-one situation, she was confident of winning. However, the other side always appeared in groups, so she could only temporarily avoid their attacks. She used barriers and formations to make those black-suited ghosts run back and forth several times but they could not find her and eventually returned empty-handed.
