A true top expert has arrived, still wielding the Flame of Life, but stronger than Princess Scarlet Moon.
There should only be one such being among the elves at present.
Theresa Scarlet Moon.
She actually chose to leave the city herself to interrupt Amelie's spellcasting!
"Aha..."
Ji Xinyu showed no sign of backing down; instead, her eyes lit up, and she became even more excited.
The red-haired elf before them was undoubtedly the strongest enemy in this battle.
If I can defeat her directly, my senior sister will definitely reward me handsomely, right? She'll grant me whatever I ask for, won't she?
Thinking this, Ji Xinyu felt her spiritual power was about to boil. She brandished her Fire Tassel Spear, becoming one with the spear, and transformed into a cone-shaped fire meteor that fell from the sky, colliding fiercely with Theresa Feiyue, who had transformed into a towering fireball.
boom!
A deafening roar erupted over the Elf King's City, and the powerful shockwave swept away Judy and the others who were engaged in fierce battle. Even the two magic warships left below were pushed back dozens of meters, and the Federation soldiers on the ground were sent flying like leaves in the autumn wind.
Fortunately, the bodies of magic practitioners are tough enough that being thrown off by the aftershocks of a powerful opponent's battle is not a serious injury. They can get up, drink some healing potions to repair their damaged internal organs, and continue fighting.
At the epicenter of the explosion, Theresa Scarlet Moon stood suspended in mid-air, dressed in a black robe clearly in the style of a priestess. The collision hadn't forced her to take a single step back, even though she was coming from below and should theoretically have suffered a slight loss.
Ji Xinyu retreated several hundred meters upwards and behind her. A charred mark appeared on the front of her golden chainmail, sparks lingered on the ends of her long black hair, and a thin trickle of blood dripped from the corner of her mouth.
Clearly, in that head-on collision just now, Ji Xinyu was slightly outmatched.
But Ji Xinyu was not discouraged, because the one fighting head-on was only her physical body using righteous techniques, which could only be counted as half of her power. She still had the other half of her power.
The black-clad Ji Xinyu, now in her soul form, had already reached behind Theresa Feiyue. Theresa Feiyue, however, was unaware of the soul's presence and remained oblivious to the invisible sword that was right in front of her.
puff!
Just like her daughters who died at Ji Xinyu's hands, Theresa Feiyue was also pierced through the heart from behind by Ji Xinyu in the black dress. Then, the power of the Netherworld Soul Technique invaded her body, trying to freeze her soul and body together.
"...Is this the power that killed my daughters? Pretty impressive. The cultivation methods of the Eastern Kingdom are indeed strange and unpredictable."
However, Theresa Scarlet Moon remained unfazed, showing no signs of being frozen. She even offered her assessment of Ji Xinyu's Netherworld Soul Technique, before her entire body erupted in flames once more.
"But that's not enough to kill me! With His blessing, I am invincible! Even the Elf Queen and the Dao Ancestor cannot kill me! Let alone you and the witch of the Federation!"
boom!
The powerful burst of magic sent Black-Dressed Hime Xinyu flying. Then, the blazing flames of life enveloped Theresa Scarlet Moon once again, instantly healing the fatal wound in her heart and forming a protective layer more than 3 meters thick around her body, making it difficult for Black-Dressed Hime Xinyu to launch another sneak attack.
"……cut."
Ji Xinyu clicked her tongue, and could only swing her fire-tasseled spear again and charge forward to attack, while shouting at Emerald in the air:
"Senior sister, hurry up! Your maid's mother is pretty fierce, I might not be able to beat her!"
boom!
The flames of Yang-attribute spiritual power and the flames of life collided once again, but this time Ji Xinyu did not simply confront them head-on. Instead, like when she fought Yulia, she began to show off her martial arts skills.
With a flick, thrust, slash, and sweep of her fiery spear, her movements flowed like a dance, creating a cage of fiery, yang-attribute spiritual energy in the air that trapped Theresa Scarlet Moon within.
Theresa Scarlet Moon's combat skills are clearly not very good. After all, just half a year ago, she was a fallen elf who only spent her days indulging in pleasure with strong young men. She was a real good-for-nothing young lady. Otherwise, her sister wouldn't be thinking about killing her and taking her place all the time.
However, Teresa Scarlet Moon's power after receiving the blessing was too great. After exchanging a few blows with Ji Xinyu, she realized that she was no match for her in terms of skill, so she simply flipped the table.
boom!
There's nothing fancy about it; it's simply about condensing energy and then unleashing it. Any shortcomings in magical efficacy are compensated for with magical power! Since the power is a gift, there's no need to feel bad about using it.
One explosion can destroy all techniques!
Ji Xinyu's martial arts combo was forcibly interrupted, and she was once again blasted hundreds of meters away.
puff!
This time, it wasn't just blood trickling from the corner of her mouth; Ji Xinyu spat out a large mouthful, clearly indicating that she had suffered serious internal injuries.
"Again!"
But Ji Xinyu became even more excited.
She's so young to have cultivated to this level of strength, which suggests she has some battle mania. People like that usually have higher attack power the lower their health is.
However, the gap between Ji Xinyu and Theresa Feiyue is difficult to bridge.
If Ji Xinyu could combine the power of her righteous immortal cultivation techniques with the power of the Netherworld Soul Technique, like Amelie, she shouldn't be afraid of Theresa Feiyue, but she can't.
Whether it's the physical body or the soul, relying solely on one's own strength, it's difficult to inflict any effective damage on Theresa Scarlet Moon. The life-giving flame, blessed by the gods of another world, is terrifyingly powerful.
Therefore, Ji Xinyu changed her battle strategy. She gave up on defeating Theresa Feiyue and instead planned to restrain her and buy time until Amelie finished casting her spell.
The two Ji Xinyu, one in the red dress and the other in the black dress, launched attacks on Theresa Feiyue simultaneously, but instead of trying to harm her, they formed a formation around themselves, just as they had done when she reunited with Ameliete.
The Yin-Yang Formation of Righteousness and Evil!
The domineering and fiery Yang attribute spiritual power and the eerie and icy Yin attribute spiritual power formed a huge Tai Chi sphere centered on the two Ji Xinyu figures in red and black dresses, directly enveloping Theresa Feiyue. Then it began to rotate, rubbing against each other with the two completely opposite spiritual powers and the flame of life.
Individual Yang and Yin spiritual power are still no match for the Flame of Life, but when the two are alternated, it seems to produce an effect similar to how thermal expansion and contraction can make objects brittle.
The Tai Chi sphere of the Yin-Yang Array has indeed temporarily trapped Theresa Scarlet Moon. She tried several times to unleash her magic power but failed to forcibly break the Tai Chi sphere apart. Moreover, she herself clearly lacks the power of magical concepts.
"...Hmph, you've asked for it!"
Seeing this, Theresa Scarlet Moon seemed to be enraged, her eyes flashing with fierce light, and then she knelt down in mid-air within the righteous and evil duality formation.
But this was clearly not a plea for mercy, but a prayer.
"Junior sister, be careful! She's about to use a divine spell!"
Having already acquired considerable theological knowledge, Amelie immediately noticed Theresa Scarlet Moon's prayer. Understanding that the power of any deity should never be underestimated, she suppressed the burden of controlling a large amount of magic and reminded Ji Xinyu.
But reminders were useless, because Ji Xinyu was doing her best to maintain the Yin-Yang Array of Righteousness and Evil, and had no more power to defend against divine magic. She could only hope that the power of the Yin-Yang Array of Righteousness and Evil could trap the divine magic inside, just like it had blocked the eruption of the Flame of Life.
But that's clearly wishful thinking.
Unable to see Ji Xinyu in the black dress, Theresa Feiyue, after finishing her prayer, pointed directly at Ji Xinyu in front of her, her eyes burning fiercely:
"He will give you new life!"
!
A strange power, different from the Flame of Life, shot out from Theresa Scarlet Moon's fingertips, completely ignoring the existence of the Yin-Yang Array of Righteousness and Evil, and directly struck Ji Xinyu's lower abdomen, imprinting a strange pattern on her snow-white and soft belly through the golden chainmail.
At first, Ji Xinyu didn't feel anything, but soon she was shocked. She felt her spiritual power and life force were starting to get out of control and being absorbed by the new entity that appeared out of nowhere in her lower abdomen.
She was pregnant! The new life inside her was frantically absorbing her spiritual energy and life force, trying to kill her and burst out of her body!
"This is... the power of divine magic? Pfft!"
Ji Xinyu's physical body could no longer hold on, her spiritual power dissipated and she fell from the sky, and the Righteous and Evil Yin-Yang Array, which had lost half of its core, also shattered.
Ji Xinyu was also ruthless. After her physical body tried several times but failed to suppress the new life within her that was absorbing her spiritual power and life force, she decisively used her soul body to strike her physical body with an invisible sword, piercing through the abdomen of her physical body and using the power of the Netherworld Soul Technique to kill the new life.
This time it finally worked. The righteous and evil techniques are mutually exclusive, as are the yin and yang spiritual energies. The power of the Netherworld Soul Technique is very effective against new life forms that have absorbed a large amount of yang attribute spiritual energy. This sword strike successfully injured her severely.
But this new life was also exceptionally tenacious. The power of the Netherworld Soul Technique could not kill her. She remained dormant within Ji Xinyu's body, constantly absorbing her spiritual power and life force.
"...Oh? You actually managed to suppress the birth of your daughter for the time being? That's quite an achievement."
Theresa Scarlet Moon was somewhat surprised that Ji Xinyu had caught her deadly divine technique, but she did not follow up with a finishing blow. Instead, she ignored Ji Xinyu, who had already lost her fighting ability, and rushed into the air.
Because at this moment, the diameter of the magical sun high in the sky had exceeded 20 kilometers, Amelie's spellcasting was finally completed.
Holy Superior Magic: Sunset
A colossal magical sun, over 20 kilometers in diameter, descended from the sky and crashed down upon the elven capital.
"Hmph, watch me push it back!"
Theresa Scarlet Moon accelerated once more, even making a pushing motion with both hands. The bursting flames of life force around her body had exceeded 100 meters and were still expanding.
With her power, even if she couldn't push the magical sun back, she could greatly weaken its power after intercepting it, preventing it from breaking through the magical shield of the Elf Capital.
Of course, Amelie couldn't let Theresa Scarlet Moon do that. If the magical sun didn't work as intended, wouldn't Ji Xinyu have been beaten up for nothing?
"Why don't you come and spar with me for a bit?"
Emerald arrived first, embracing Theresa Scarlet Moon from behind before she could catch the magical sun with her hands. Then, her wings wrapped around Theresa Scarlet Moon, instantly turning the two of them into a ball of feathers.
The concept of magic, sacred miracles!
The feathered sphere turned into light.
What is a miracle? Simply put, it's the fulfillment of one's wishes. Therefore, the power of Emerald's concept of divine magic is essentially an omnipotent wish-granting machine.
However, fulfilling a wish requires consuming a corresponding amount of magic power.
Emerald herself doesn't know spatial magic, but that doesn't matter. She can achieve a similar effect by making a wish, only it consumes more magic power... She was able to easily escape from the Yin-Yang Array before because of this effect.
Chapter 352 Divine Art: Holy Spirit Seal
Making a wish directly for magic seems powerful, but it's not actually that amazing.
Even without wishing for magic, Emerald has countless ways to manipulate weaker opponents.
However, Emerald's magic is insufficient to pay the price of her wish against a powerful opponent; at the very least, it is unlikely that she can defeat her opponent simply by making a wish.
Theresa Scarlet Moon was undoubtedly a very strong opponent. It was impossible for Emerald to defeat her directly by using the miracle wish of the concept of holy magic. Therefore, after Emerald wrapped Theresa Scarlet Moon into a ball with her wings, she only wished to move with her, and not for a long distance.
This was easy to achieve, and the cost was relatively minor. The winged orb flashed with golden light and appeared thousands of meters away, causing Theresa Scarlet Moon to miss the opportunity to block the spell Sun.
click!
The magical sun, with a diameter of 20 kilometers and power comparable to an asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs of Earth, still struck the magical shield of the Elf King's city, instantly causing cracks to appear in the shield that had remained unmoved despite days of bombardment.
Click click click!
The cracks multiplied, and the magic shield suddenly lit up and flickered a few times, indicating that the mages in the elven capital were making a desperate last stand.
Unfortunately, this struggle was in vain.
As the only magical AI in the world, Suzuran may have flaws in other abilities, but she will not make mistakes in numerical calculations.
Although the continuous bombardment by the magic warship over the past few days failed to break through the magic shield of the Elf Capital, it allowed Suzuran to accurately measure the strength of the shield through the feedback from the bombardment.
According to Lily of the Valley's measurements and calculations, the magic shield of the Elf Capital cannot withstand a 20-kilometer-diameter magical sun, and even a 15-kilometer-diameter magical sun has a considerable probability of breaking the shield.
The same is true.
After a stalemate of about 10 seconds, the magic shield above the Elf King's capital finally shattered completely, like glass being hit by an iron ball.
The spell continued to fall until it was less than 50 meters from the ground before exploding. The intense heat and shockwave swept everything away, tearing apart and burning all the buildings in the elven capital into ruins.
The first place to be affected was the Elven Royal Court... Of course, this is no longer the Elven Royal Court, but has been transformed by Theresa Scarlet Moon into a complex of temples with an architectural style different from this world.
At the center of that temple complex stood a colossal statue crafted from magical materials such as adamantite and mithril. Its appearance resembled both an insect and a bird, and it was most likely the otherworldly deity who had bestowed blessings upon Theresa Scarlet Moon.
This statue was arguably the most sturdy building in the Elven capital. Despite being located very close to the point where the magical sun would strike, it remained standing even after the entire temple complex was reduced to ashes, until the Federation's magic warships fired a few more shots before finally collapsing with a bang.
With just this one blow, more than 60 percent of the Elven Kingdom, centered on the former Elven Royal Court, was reduced to ruins. The remaining areas were also severely damaged, with various glass and crystal artifacts shattered everywhere, and many buildings still burning.
The streets and ruins were littered with elves in tattered clothes. They must have taken cover before the massive spell of the sun set. Most of them were not in any real danger, but they were still dazed and disoriented from the explosion and were clearly unable to resist.
"Let's go into town!"
With Amelie temporarily absent, Judy, who was closest to Amelie and held the highest rank, automatically took over command of the Federation army and led the Federation troops into the Elven capital.
For those elves who had lost the ability to resist, the Federation Army did not finish them off. Instead, they first put special collars on them to seal their magic before treating them.
As for the elves who still chose to put up a stubborn resistance, the Federation Army was not lenient. Ground troops dealt with what they could on their own, and if they couldn't, they called in naval artillery support. Currently, all seven of the Federation Army's active-duty magic warships were in the airspace above the elven capital, and the elves had no power to resist.
"Do not!!!"
Seeing that even the Elf King had fallen, and all her efforts over the past few days had been in vain, Theresa Scarlet Moon roared in fury, and the flames of life force on her body erupted violently, shaking away Emerald, who was carrying her and forcibly transferring her from behind.
"As you can see, you have lost, Theresa Scarlet Moon. Accept reality."
With a swift movement, Emerald blocked Theresa Crimson Moon's path as she headed towards the Elf Capital, and whispered:
"For Xixi's sake, I can give you a chance... Give up resisting and remove the divine spell from my junior sister, and you can live a life of good food, good drink, and good young men serving you every day."
"Impossible! I am no longer the cowardly and incompetent person I once was! I have been reborn under His blessing, and I will let His glory spread throughout the world!"
Theresa Crimson Moon, however, showed no appreciation whatsoever, and instead raised her hand to hurl a ball of blazing life force at Emerald:
"I haven't lost yet! As long as I can defeat you, the remaining Federation troops are nothing to worry about. I can defeat them all by myself, and then rebuild the temple and statues to welcome His arrival!"
"...stubborn and unyielding."
