But then, the flat-chested little witch's round eyes suddenly turned mysterious.

She muttered to herself, "He wasn't joking. This guy is even less human than Lady Yasha-hime... Ugh, I didn't mean to insult Lady Yasha-hime..."

Monk Zhutian's smile froze for a moment.

Ito Yumuri, who remained expressionless as she surveyed the room, and Sett, whose expression clearly didn't seem to be joking...

Monk Zhutian still couldn't believe it. Reaching level 3 in two weeks? Even superhumans don't reach that fast!

He assumed they were conspiring to deceive him, an honest man.

He stopped caring, moved on, and continued asking Ito Yumuri, picking up where they left off, saying:

"Let's continue. I think we should still focus on our Takeda squad in the battle against Eikichi Kaito later."

"I've fought against Kaito Nagayoshi before, so I have some experience with him. As for the members of that monster squad, I'll leave them to your team, Ito's team, and my team members."

Of the eight squads currently existing in the Tenju Nerima branch, the Ito Seventh Squad is the most unique.

According to Tianzhu's requirements, only cultivators at the fourth level of the Source Realm or above can serve as team leaders. However, due to Ito Yumuri's special identity and the Ito family behind her, people generally tacitly allowed her, who was only at the third level, to be made an exception and serve as the team leader.

However, precisely because it is an exception, most people do not really treat Ito Yumuri as a captain-level combatant when dispatching or cooperating on missions.

The names themselves reveal this: Level 3 is merely the Transcendent Realm, while Level 4 and above represent the Origin Realm.

3级与4级的差距要比“2级与3级”或“4级与5级”之间大得多。

Ito Yumuri, who usually acquiesces to this suggestion, did not immediately agree this time. Instead, she slightly raised her eyelids and looked at Sett, as if seeking his opinion.

Monk Takeda also noticed her movements and turned his gaze to Seti.

immediately.

Sett then said something that made him think he had misheard.

"No, let's keep our Ito squad at the core."

Upon hearing this, the monk Zhutian was quite surprised, but he did not show it. After thinking for a moment, he patiently offered the following words of advice:

"This battle is no child's play. The difference between level 3 and level 4 is practically insurmountable. Although Yongji Kaito isn't a level 4 ability user skilled in combat, this opportunity is rare, and we must catch this rat, Yongji Kaito... Let me..."

“It’s alright, I’ll take care of it,” Sett interrupted.

Sett still harbors a burning rage for Yongji Haidou, the mastermind behind the assassination attempts on him and his sister by two Level 2 ability users. He wants to personally take Yongji's head.

And... he wanted to ask a few more questions, such as why the other party wanted to assassinate him, etc.

If he discovers that there are even more guys hiding behind him, Sett will naturally follow Yongji and dig them all out one by one!

Therefore, Sett will definitely not give up this opportunity to clash with Yongji Haidou to anyone.

Just as the monk Zhutian was about to say a few more words.

Ito Yumuri glanced at Sett and concluded:

"That's settled then. No need for further discussion. If you have any objections, you can report them to Ito Kaizaburo."

Ito Kaizaburo, a 7th-level Saint, is the head of the Tenshu Nerima branch.

This guy definitely holds a special place in Ito Yumuri's heart; she even brought up Captain Ito to pressure me...

Oh well, Yongji Haidou isn't a combat-type ability anyway. I'll just babysit them for a bit later. I'll step in when they're struggling, just make sure they're not in any real danger... The young man is arrogant and impetuous; a little hardship is good for him...

Thinking of this, Monk Zhutian stopped talking and nodded in agreement with Seti's suggestion.

......

Higashi-Sayasu Wetland Park, Hayami 1-chome, Nerima Ward.

Sett and Ito Yumuri were already lying in wait here, followed by the flat-chested little witch, Kameda Kazuhiro, and the six members of the Takeda Squad.

Because of Yasha-hime's scheme.

The entire Hayami district is now infiltrated by various squads from the Heavenly Pillars. Even the alcoholic minister has reportedly rushed over, constantly on guard against attacks and ambushes from other members of the Monster Association.

Therefore, the mission objectives of Ito's squad and Takeda's squad are actually quite simple:

Intercept and kill Yongji Kaito, as well as any other members of the Yongji Monster Squad who may appear.

Any members who appear afterward but are not from the Eikichi Monster Squad can be left to Ito Kaizaburo, Yashahime, and the rest of the Heavenly Pillar Squad.

This is also the fundamental reason why Sett chose to share intelligence with Sky Pillar.

If he rashly chooses to intercept and kill Eikichi Kaito alone, and ends up alerting the high-level ability users who may be hiding in Hayamiya, then even if he gets his revenge, he will probably pay a heavy price.

Perhaps this is the advantage of having official support compared to independent practitioners; it provides a safety net.

While Ito Yumuri was keeping a close watch.

Seti also lowered his head and logged into the Tianzhu Forum, like a blind man mending the fold, to review the abilities and characteristics of the four major paths of cultivators.

If we defeat Eikichi Kaito later, and the battle between Tenjuro and the Monster Association continues...

Given his third mission to kill 20 extraordinary beings, Sett will undoubtedly join the fray immediately.

Therefore, it is essential to have a thorough understanding of your teammates' abilities.

Among them, the [Buddhist Zen Monk] only possesses three abilities at levels 1-3 of the Transcendent Realm.

These are "Golden Body", "Divine Eye", and "Divine Ear".

The former, Seti, naturally understood very well, enabling Buddhist monks to possess extremely strong resilience. The latter two could respectively enhance the Buddhist monks' eyesight and hearing, better complementing their Buddhist martial arts in combat.

After reaching the fourth level of the Source Realm, the Buddhist monks transform from the "third level of the Formless Golden Body" to the "fourth level of the Pure Karma Golden Body".

Its resilience will be further enhanced, and everyone who attacks the "Pure Karma Golden Body" will suffer a double backlash from the "Worldly Karmic Fire" on both their soul and body—similar to having acquired a counter-armor.

At the same time, learning the "Leakage Elimination Divine Power" can greatly resist soul attacks, illusions, and negative status effects.

This golden nugget is essentially a tank; after level 4, it can withstand both AP and AD damage and also has damage reflection.

While you get a lot of meat, the damage... is quite low...

The Warrior, at levels 1-3 of the Transcendent Realm, possesses four abilities through cultivation techniques and continuous training:

"Samurai Body" can increase a samurai's explosive power and destructive force.

"Samurai Heart" allows samurai to be calmer in battle, while also resisting certain negative emotions, soul attacks, illusions, and so on. It can be considered a weakened version of "Leakage Divine Power".

"Samurai's Eye" increases a samurai's observation and insight.

The last one is the ability "Sword Aura Release," which can only be learned at level 3 of the samurai class. This ability grants the samurai ranged attack capabilities as well as the ability to attack multiple targets.

The wealthy woman Ito's samurai sword, Tensetsu, can transform her sword energy into ice and snow, turning her outward sword energy into a sky full of ice crystals.

After accumulating Dao to the fourth level of the Source Realm, the old adage "Way of the Warrior" will no longer be discussed.

To put it simply, a samurai is like a squishy AD carry. Their destructive power and ability to continuously deal damage are the strongest among the four methods, but they have little damage reduction or sustain, making them easy to kill.

Shinto priestess and divine child

At levels 1-3 of the Transcendent Realm, one possesses a total of six abilities: "Purification", "Healing", "Blessing Reduction", "Blessing", "Super Strength", and "Super Regeneration".

After reaching Level 4 Origin Realm, one can form a contract with ghosts and gods.

She transformed from a healer into a berserker, possessing the strongest short-duration burst ability through four different pathways.

I'm even more familiar with Sett, so there's no need to say more.

And the last one is [Onmyoji].

It is the most unpredictable of the four paths of cultivation.

Onmyoji at the Transcendent Realm also possess six abilities.

At level 1:

"Shizen" includes astrology, which involves observing stars, judging people's faces, and observing feng shui. It can later be transformed into predicting the future. The prophecy made by Abe no Seimei, a level 9 peak Onmyoji a thousand years ago, regarding Takamagahara in 2022 was likely based on this ability.

“Symbol”: Using spiritual power to draw talismans, such as common water talismans and fire talismans, which need to be prepared in advance and have relatively low power.

Afterwards, by continuously observing the operation of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements through divination, and learning the precise control of spiritual power through divination, the Onmyoji will master two new abilities once they reach level 2:

"Shiki-jin": It is an upgraded version of Shiki-jin. It uses spiritual power to draw the array, which consumes more spiritual power, requires higher control over spiritual power, and takes longer, but its power is much stronger. Almost no one of the same level dares to fight in the Shiki-jin prepared by the Onmyoji.

"Style Technique": It is a simplified, instantaneous version of the style array, but its power is also much smaller.

By continuing to observe Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, and through learning the cultivation system and mastering increasingly refined control of spiritual power, Yin-Yang Masters will realize that behind the "Yang of spiritual power in the real world," there also exists the "Yin of the soul world."

Therefore, a level 3 Onmyoji can master two "Yin" abilities:

"Soul Attack" and "Soul Illusion".

The former can directly attack the opponent's soul, while the latter can use illusions to deceive the opponent, change their cognition, and even modify the memories of people with low soul strength by planting illusion seeds in their subconscious.

To reach the fourth level of the Source Realm.

Onmyoji need to combine yin and yang; once successful, they gain the ability to "create life".

Of course, it doesn't actually create a living being, but rather a puppet that can be controlled by an Onmyoji through the combination of Yin and Yang.

They are also known as "shikigami"!

Overall, Onmyoji is a fragile character with poor front-line damage, weak sustain, and is easily killed.

However, he is also a positional AP mage who can turn bad luck into good through divination, and who can preemptively plan formations and manipulate souls in a cunning way.

Therefore, Onmyoji are often positioned in the rear for defense, rather than as the offensive force that takes the initiative to attack.
