Chapter 754: Shattered Mirror
The Guardian Spirit's speed was extremely fast, but Waning Moon's speed was even faster. In an instant, Waning Moon collided with the Yin Qi transformed by the Guardian Spirit, producing a massive explosion.
Waning Moon not only had incredible speed but was also extremely sharp. Often, its targets wouldn't even have time to react before being sliced open.
However, this time, Waning Moon didn't slice open the Guardian Spirit's Yin Qi. Instead, it was directly blocked.
This situation was easy to explain. Waning Moon's speed and sharpness entirely depended on Yang Haoran's power as its master.
The stronger Yang Haoran's power, the faster and sharper Waning Moon would be, and its strength would also increase.
On the other hand, if Yang Haoran's power weakened, Waning Moon's abilities would also decrease.
This was the current situation. Yang Haoran's power hadn't fully recovered, so Waning Moon's explosive strength was limited, and it couldn't break through the Guardian Spirit's Yin Qi.
To put it bluntly, Yang Haoran's current power was no match for the Guardian Spirit. Even if he opened his heaven soul, he wouldn't be a match for this Guardian Spirit, so the damage Waning Moon dealt to the Guardian Spirit was limited.
The first strike didn't inflict significant damage on the Guardian Spirit, but Yang Haoran didn't feel surprised. He didn't give up and continued to control Waning Moon, launching a fierce attack on the Guardian Spirit to try and block its approach.
Earlier, during the pursuit, he hadn't killed Yang Haoran, but he had severely injured him. Yet, in just a short hour, Yang Haoran had already recovered and was now fighting with all his might, showing no signs of injury.
After a brief thought, the great spirit master had some suspicions.
In his view, Yang Haoran's rapid recovery was likely due to consuming some kind of healing medicine, and the effects of this medicine were remarkable. Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to recover from his injuries to this extent in just an hour.
As for Yang Haoran and Xu Meijing's disappearance earlier, it was definitely due to the use of some unknown talisman, because he had clearly sensed the power released by the talisman, and the two had vanished afterwards.
If this wasn't related to the talisman, he wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death.
Regarding Yang Haoran, the great spirit master's doubts had decreased, replaced by excitement, as he felt that this Underworld Envoy had a lot of value to be exploited.
As the two sides clashed, Yang Haoran fell into a disadvantageous position, and the Guardian Spirit gradually closed in, getting closer and closer to the cave entrance and Yang Haoran.
At this rate, it wouldn't take long for Yang Haoran to be completely defeated by the Guardian Spirit.
However, the great spirit master didn't know when Xu Meijing would break through, and he couldn't help but feel some anxiety. If Xu Meijing opened her earth soul, the situation would become troublesome, so he didn't want to waste too much time on Yang Haoran.
A cold snort escaped his lips, and the great spirit master suddenly swung his hand, unleashing a burst of spiritual power towards Yang Haoran.
Yang Haoran's current opponent was the Guardian Spirit, but his guard against the great spirit master remained unchanged. The moment the great spirit master swung his hand, Yang Haoran knew he was about to attack, so he immediately formed a seal with his hands.
His fingers changed rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, the sealing motion stopped abruptly!
"Ghost Technique Netherworld Ice Mirror!"
A massive Netherworld Ice Mirror condensed into form, perfectly blocking the great spirit master's attack. If his speed had been just a fraction slower, the Netherworld Ice Mirror wouldn't have condensed in time, and he would have been struck by the great spirit master's spiritual power.
At this moment, Yang Haoran had already reached an extraordinary level of performance, surpassing his usual limits. Faced with the threat of death, his potential exploded, and his sealing speed was several times faster than usual. Normally, even in optimal conditions, it would take him several seconds to deploy the Netherworld Ice Mirror, but now he had accomplished it in the blink of an eye.
The spiritual power was blocked by the Netherworld Ice Mirror and immediately merged into it. The Netherworld Ice Mirror violently trembled and then reflected the great spirit master's spiritual power back at him.
The great spirit master's face changed slightly, and he didn't expect Yang Haoran's reaction speed to be so fast. In the blink of an eye, Yang Haoran had already deployed a Ghost Technique, and this Ghost Technique was quite unusual.
Although he was surprised in his heart, it wasn't enough to make him feel too much trouble. He simply dodged to the side, successfully avoiding the spiritual power that bounced back.
Boom!!
The ground shook violently, the mountains trembled, and rocks of various sizes rolled down from the top of the mountain. The spot where the spiritual power hit the ground was directly blasted into a deep pit.
The great spirit master's attack was one that Yang Haoran barely managed to withstand, but due to his distraction, the Guardian Spirit found an opportunity to strike, sending his soul weapon, Waning Moon, flying out, and then quickly pounced on him.
Yang Haoran's face darkened, and he waved his hand to retrieve a large number of talismans from his independent space. These talismans included ghost-slaying talismans, fire talismans, and other miscellaneous talismans.
Although the types of talismans were different, they were all attack-type talismans, and they were all yellow talismans.
Since he hadn't converted the power seed, Yang Haoran couldn't fully unleash the true power of these talismans, nor could he control them at will.
In this situation, he couldn't possibly convert the Talisman Spirit Power, because he was only a yellow talisman master, and his power was extremely limited. If he converted the Talisman Spirit Power, he would be instantly killed.
So, even though he knew he couldn't fully unleash the power of these talismans, he still didn't use the Talisman Spirit Power.
And why did he choose to use talismans at this time, and even took out almost all the attack-type talismans from his independent space? It was a desperate move.
Because in this situation, he had no way to deploy Ghost Techniques again, and in his desperation, he used talismans to block the Guardian Spirit's approach.
Yang Haoran had drawn many talismans since becoming a talisman master, but he rarely used them, so the talismans in his independent space had been accumulating.
Now, he took out almost all the attack-type talismans, and the quantity was enormous, with a shocking momentum, like a swarm of bees, densely packed and rushing towards the Guardian Spirit, colliding with it in an instant.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The explosions continued, with flames shooting out in all directions. The Guardian Spirit, which had been charging forward, was temporarily blocked by the large number of talismans deployed by Yang Haoran!
The great spirit master witnessed this scene, and his face darkened. In his eyes, Yang Haoran, as an Underworld Envoy, was like an ant, and he raised his foot to crush this ant, but surprisingly, he didn't kill him with one step. Enjoying the story? Find more at MV-LEMPYR.
He felt annoyed in his heart, and this great spirit master once again attacked Yang Haoran, sending a spiritual power attack towards him. This time, the spiritual power he mobilized was more than twice as strong as before!
It seemed like he wanted to prove his strength to Yang Haoran, and the great spirit master's attack didn't bypass the Netherworld Ice Mirror, but instead directly blasted towards it.
Earlier, his own attack had been blocked by the Netherworld Ice Mirror, and it had even bounced back, which made him feel very unhappy. He felt that his strength had been challenged, and if he didn't regain his face, he wouldn't be able to give himself an explanation.
So, he increased the force of his attack and intentionally didn't bypass the Netherworld Ice Mirror, with the sole purpose of destroying the Netherworld Ice Mirror head-on, making Yang Haoran deeply feel the difference in their strength!
The talismans temporarily blocked the Guardian Spirit, but Yang Haoran didn't have time to catch his breath before he sensed a strong power fluctuation coming from the great spirit master's location.
He knew that the great spirit master had attacked him again, and without thinking, he quickly mobilized the Yin spirit power within his body and injected it into the Netherworld Ice Mirror.
He sensed that the great spirit master's attack was extremely powerful, and if he didn't mobilize a large amount of Yin spirit power to support it, he was certain that the Netherworld Ice Mirror wouldn't be able to withstand this attack.
The same scene as before replayed, and the great spirit master's spiritual power directly merged into the Netherworld Ice Mirror, being completely absorbed by it.
However, this time, the Netherworld Ice Mirror didn't reflect the spiritual power back like before. After absorbing the spiritual power, the Netherworld Ice Mirror began to shake violently, and in less than three seconds, it exploded with a loud bang.
