She had to admit that Western demonic cultivators were truly no match for Eastern demonic cultivators in terms of their inhumanity, not even those who had transmigrated.
Seeing that Ji Xinyu had even taken out the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, Amelie snapped her fingers, opening a dark purple rift, which was her undead space.
The Dragonbone fighter took off first, circling in the air several times before hovering in the clouds. Next, two alluring beauties in kimonos stood on either side of Emerald, and finally, a black knight in full heavy armor, wielding a large shield, walked heavily to Emerald's side.
"Oh? These are your own spirits, Junior Sister?"
Ji Xinyu first looked up at the Dragonbone fighter jet for a few moments, then lavished praise upon it:
"That big triangular iron bird looks so majestic, and it can even make me sense danger... It seems quite powerful. It's a pity it came from an illegitimate source, otherwise I would have asked you, junior sister, to order a batch of them for my army."
Then Ji Xinyu looked at the two kimono-clad beauties on either side of Emery and raised an eyebrow:
"This is... the mother and daughter from the Hoshino family of Shangying Kingdom? Not bad, Junior Sister, how long have you been in the East this time, and you've already made such a gain? I must admit I underestimated you... And Junior Sister, your undead are almost indistinguishable from the living? Doesn't that mean... Hmph, I've decided, after I defeat you, Junior Sister, I'll make you and this mother and daughter serve me together!"
Finally, Ji Xinyu looked at the Black Knight, the heavily armored female captain in black veils, and frowned in thought for a moment, still somewhat puzzled:
"What kind of weakling is this? Did you just bring this to make up the numbers, junior sister?"
"Ha, the small fry is dreaming again?"
Emerald first scoffed at Ji Xinyu's outrageous remarks, then beckoned with her finger in a sarcastic gesture:
"As for what's so powerful about my undead, Senior Sister... Hmph, I'll make sure you remember it well with your body, Junior Sister. Bring it on!"
"That's exactly what I was thinking! Drink!"
Ji Xinyu let out a sharp cry and immediately adopted a martial arts stance completely different from before.
Previously, Ji Xinyu wielded a fiery spear, thrusting and sweeping with grand and sweeping movements like a tyrant descending to earth. Now, however, she curls her fingers into claws, surrounded by ghostly energy, somewhat resembling Zhou Zhiruo using the Nine Yin White Bone Claw.
Moreover, Ji Xinyu's Ten Thousand Soul Banner is somewhat different from the Ten Thousand Soul Banner described by the old lich.
According to the old lich's account, once the red-clad Thousand Soul Banner is unfurled, countless ghostly figures will swarm out to tear apart and devour the target's soul, thus strengthening themselves.
Ji Xinyu's Ten Thousand Soul Banner did not summon a single ghostly figure. Instead, it continuously transmitted a large amount of Yin energy to Ji Xinyu, causing her aura to rise steadily.
At the same time, the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls also generated a field effect in a huge area centered on itself, which made Amelie suddenly feel a little cold and even wanted to shiver.
"Junior sister, watch out! Senior sister's coming to get you!"
It seems like a reminder of martial virtue, but it's more like a boast.
Ji Xinyu suddenly leaped into the air and grabbed at Ameliete with incredible speed:
"Netherworld Soul-Seizing Claw!"
Fortunately, in addition to providing almost unlimited magic power and special abilities, the fused organs also greatly enhance their own organ capabilities.
Emerald's left eye couldn't capture Ji Xinyu's attack movements at all, but her golden right eye could see them clearly, as if in slow motion.
Therefore, Emerald did not let the Black Knight activate his ability; she planned to hold back and use the Black Knight's forced taunt to win.
The one who came forward was the undead beauty, who held an iron fan, her weapon from her life. After her death, Emeryte added some curse effects and poisoned the blade of the fan.
At the same time, the undead Aya took a few steps back, took out a bow and arrow, drew it fully, aimed at Ji Xinyu's position briefly, and then fired.
Undead Beauty is undoubtedly among the weakest of the third-stage powerhouses. Her stats and skills are no match for Ji Xinyu. She was defeated in less than 10 moves, her iron fan was knocked away, and her black kimono was torn in several places.
However, Ji Xinyu did not gain any advantage from this; on the contrary, she suffered a loss.
It's easy to see from the trash talk she said to Emerald that this princess of the Tianyun Empire also likes women and is quite promiscuous.
The greatest strength of the Undead Beauty has never been her combat ability, but her charm.
Her alluring charm, revealed by the tear in her kimono, was so captivating that Ji Xinyu was stunned for a full second.
Then the arrow shot by the undead Ayahime whistled through the air and struck Ji Xinyu's shoulder precisely, producing a sizzling sound like raw meat entering hot oil.
"? This is... the Evil-Slaying Arrow?"
Ji Xinyu then came to her senses, clutching her shoulder where she had been shot, somewhat annoyed:
"Junior sister, you've broken the rules! We agreed you weren't allowed to use righteous skills!"
"I'm useless too, aren't I?"
Emerald tilted her head, a sweet smile on her face:
"This is a skill used by the undead I control with necromancy... Isn't it normal for a powerful undead to use what she learned in her previous life? You don't even know this, you little brat junior sister?"
Chapter 260 The Invisible Ribbon Revealed
"Fine, fine... so you're going to play it this way, huh?"
Ji Xinyu pulled out the Evil-Slaying Arrow from her body and casually threw it away.
The undead Aya's strength was ultimately too weak. Even with the blessing of her innate divine power, which allowed her to fire a superior-grade Evil-Slaying Arrow, the damage she caused to Ji Xinyu was very limited, and she only felt a slight pain.
Ji Xinyu didn't say anything more, just sneered, and then transformed into a gust of cold wind, rushing towards Ameliete once again.
The Undead Beauty continued to advance and fight, but this time Ji Xinyu had no interest in her. Her body passed right through the Undead Beauty like a gust of wind, causing the Undead Beauty's fan blade to miss its mark.
The undead Ayahime fired three piercing arrows, but they all passed through the yin wind and did not cause any harm to Ji Xinyu.
Not only that, Ji Xinyu also significantly enhanced the field effect of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. Amelie felt even colder, while the undead Aya and the Black Knight quickly froze and were frozen in place.
This situation could actually be resolved with a single holy spell, but unfortunately, holy spells were banned. Emeryt could only grit her teeth and summon a bone shield for defense, while simultaneously using pure magic to resist the invasion of the cold.
However, this defensive measure was clearly insufficient. Ji Xinyu's hand easily passed through the bone shield and grabbed a handful of Amelie's body.
"Well!"
Emery couldn't help but groan in pain. Even though her clothes were completely intact, she felt as if her flesh was being grabbed and torn apart. The places where she was grabbed were also very cold, as if they were frozen.
Ji Xinyu wanted to press her advantage, but Amelie decisively used her magic burst to force Ji Xinyu back.
Ji Xinyu didn't linger in the fight. She transformed back into a gust of yin wind, circled around once more, and attacked again after Amelie's magical burst subsided, laughing strangely as she grabbed at her.
"How are you? Junior sister, are you very cold? Don't worry, after you obediently admit defeat, your senior sister will hug you and help you warm up."
"..."
Amelie didn't say anything, but covered her chest with one hand to try to dispel the cold, making it look like she had just suffered a great loss.
In reality, various data were constantly scrolling through the field of vision of her left monocle, all of which were Linglan's analysis of Ji Xinyu's skills and current status.
Although it is only a preliminary analysis and some reasoning, some of the results obtained so far have already confirmed that they coincide with one of Amelie's guesses.
Then let's proceed as planned.
"Senior sister, I'm here again!"
Ji Xinyu arrived again in the form of wind, raising her hand to grab at Amelie's vital points, probably wanting to have another go after tasting the pleasure earlier.
Emerald decisively used a meat shield—she summoned the undead beauty to her front and hurled it at Himeko.
At the same time, the Dragonbone fighter in the sky finally opened fire, and six Dragon Breath missiles, trailing flames, shot down like meteors falling to the ground, their target being the Ten Thousand Soul Banner that Ji Xinyu had stuck in the ground.
The field effect of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner was indeed quite powerful. Amelie felt very cold, and not only were her movements noticeably stiffer, but even her thoughts became somewhat sluggish.
This is clearly not just ordinary low temperature; it's a kind of freezing at the soul level... The ghost bride in red is walking the path of the soul.
"Hmph, naive junior sister, do you think you can fight against my Netherworld form like this?"
Ji Xinyu sneered disdainfully. She first grabbed the undead beauty and threw her aside, then pointed at the Myriad Souls Banner and cast a shield over it.
Just as the Dragon Breath Missile was about to hit the shield, it suddenly changed direction and accelerated a second time, flying towards Ji Xinyu's main body.
"Ha, what a boring trick."
Ji Xinyu remained unconcerned. After roughly assessing the strength of the Dragon Breath Missile, she reached out her claws, intending to crush it.
Before Ji Xinyu could even grab the Dragon Breath Missile, she suddenly felt a surge of irritation. The black knight, who had been frozen in ice, seemed utterly hateful.
...We can take the attacks head-on, but this guy has to die!
This thought, which arose in an instant, made Ji Xinyu abandon the defense against the dragon breath missiles and instead launch a fierce attack on the black knight, who was already frozen and unable to move, and instantly tore the black knight to pieces.
"Ok?"
Only when the Black Knight completely disappeared did Ji Xinyu suddenly come to her senses and realize that she had been tricked.
But it was too late. Six Dragon Breath missiles had already reached her face and were detonated by Emerald.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom!
The power of the dragon's breath explosion is not weak. If Ji Xinyu were to take the full blast without the golden chainmail, at the very least, her cheongsam would be destroyed and ripped to shreds.
Therefore, Ji Xinyu decisively transformed into a yin wind again, relying on the fact that this form has no physical form to evade the bombardment of the dragon's breath missile.
And this was the opportunity that Emerald had been waiting for—Ji Xinyu transformed into a yin wind but remained in place instead of moving at super speed.
A surge of magical power was simultaneously injected into the body of the undead Aya, causing her to instantly break free from the ice seal of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
Although the body of the undead Ayahime began to disintegrate after she was freed from her confinement due to the combined effects of that powerful magic and the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, it was still enough for her to complete one action before disappearing.
She swung her arm forcefully, activating her innate supernatural power, and then hurled a beverage can-shaped prop at Ji Xinyu with an additional 30% power.
The Dragon Breath Missile didn't explode upon hitting Ji Xinyu; it was Emery who controlled it to explode around Ji Xinyu's body.
The dragon breath generated by the explosion came from the shadow dragon that was shot and killed by Emeryte. The shadow dragon's breath is the fire of the soul, which has the ability to directly damage the soul. Even if Ji Xinyu turned into a yin wind, she would not be immune to the attack of the dragon breath missile.
Therefore, Ji Xinyu did not choose to dodge, as that would have caused her to run right into the center of the explosion. Instead, she chose to enter her Netherworld form on the spot to become immune to the physical damage from the explosion, while using her spiritual energy shield to block the additional effects of the dragon's breath.
This approach was actually perfectly correct, and could even be described as a quick response; it's just a pity that this is exactly what Emery wanted Ji Xinyu to do.
Because the undead Aya is not a strong third-stage being, her throwing attacks cannot possibly hit Ji Xinyu who is moving at high speed. We must find a way to make Ji Xinyu stay still in her ghost form.
Now the opportunity has finally arrived.
The small metal canister thrown by the undead Ayahime successfully flew to Ji Xinyu's side and then activated.
Crack!
A flash of electric arc appeared in the air, as if something unseen was spreading out.
"Ugh!"
Immediately afterwards, Ji Xinyu screamed and instantly reverted from her ghostly form back to her physical form. She clutched her head with both hands and collapsed, even the Myriad Soul Banner lost its chill.
Of course, Amelie wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass by. She pretended to cast a spell, summoning a large number of dead arms to extend from the ground and firmly grab Ji Xinyu.
In reality, those dead men's arms were just for show; what truly bound Ji Xinyu was Amelie's innate magical ability, the Invisible Ribbon.
Ji Xinyu, who was suffering from a splitting headache, was completely unable to discern the truth. She used her last bit of strength to destroy the dead men's arms, leading to utter failure.
Because Ji Xinyu was already bound hand and foot with invisible ribbons, and Amelie immediately activated [Magic Absorption Inscription] and [Physical Energy Absorption] with all her might, these two spells had been honed to their peak during her night battle with Yulia's water magic.
With an unbearable headache and her spiritual energy and physical strength rapidly depleting, even though Ji Xinyu struggled desperately and unwillingly, she gradually lost her strength.
"Hoo hoo~~ Now you know who the weaklings are, right, junior sister?"
Emery smiled smugly, walked over to Ji Xinyu, looked at Ji Xinyu who was bound in a roll with invisible ribbons, and sat down on her waist.
Ji Xinyu angrily opened her mouth to bite Amelie, but unfortunately she was too weak to turn over. She could only bite the air twice with a red face, making a grinding sound with her teeth.
"Give up, my dear junior sister~~ You should call me senior sister now~~"
Amelie laughed heartily and pinched Ji Xinyu's cheek, then deliberately put her finger near Ji Xinyu's mouth like she was teasing a cat.
"You're dreaming! You're the junior sister!"
Ji Xinyu was still unconvinced.
So Emery didn't hold back anymore.
She remained seated sideways on Ji Xinyu's waist, raised her hand, and slapped Ji Xinyu's buttocks hard through the cheongsam.
Snapped!
Not only did she strike, but Emery also used a pain curse from necromancy, making the slap several times more painful and leaving a clear handprint on Ji Xinyu's body.
"Ugh!"
With just that one moment, Ji Xinyu bit her lip tightly, her eyes glistening with tears.
"...Whew, as expected of the legion commander, he's really tough. If I had been slapped like that, I probably would have surrendered immediately."
Amelie chuckled, stopped hitting her, and gently rubbed the spot where Ji Xinyu had just been hit to ease her pain.
"So, how about it? Should I call you 'Senior Sister' or not?"
"not called!"
Ji Xinyu's attitude remained firm.
