Chapter 209: Sea Monk
The Ghost Samurai absorbed the Divinity of the Eight Monster House, and wheels-first's eyes flashed with terror. She also perceived the surrender of will from the Eight Monster House, which infuriated her.
Although she could drive the Eight Monster House, she was more like a "housekeeper". She had always longed for true control over the Eight Monster House.
But despite her years of effort, she couldn't match the Ghost Samurai's mere fifteen minutes!
Wheels-first roared, and the walls surrounding the Eight Monster House suddenly opened up. A second ago, they were in a hall with no windows; the next, they found themselves on an open-air terrace facing the breath of the tide, with waves splashing onto the floor.
Wheels-first pulled a bone flute from her bosom. Lisa sensed something was wrong and charged towards wheels-first, trying to interrupt her actions.
But wheels-first's neck stretched long, her head shot up towards the sky, and she blew the bone flute clenched in her mouth. The sharp, piercing flute sound traveled towards the end of the ocean, and wheels-first laughed excitedly.
Xu Yi turned to look towards the ocean. Gigantic waves surged forward, and 10-meter-high crests smashed violently against the Eight Monster House as if to sink it.
A huge mountain rose from the sea, drawing closer. Xu Yi suddenly realized that it was not a mountain at all, but the head of a monster.
The monster kept rising, and its full appearance gradually emerged before their eyes. It was a whale-like creature with charred black skin that was rough and uneven.
The monster opened its large mouth, which lacked teeth. Instead, countless pale human hands stretched out from the gaps, acting as a substitute for teeth.
The monster opened its "eyes", where two pale human heads turned, one female on the left and a male on the right.
Xu Yi felt a powerful pressure emanating from the monster, far surpassing that of the other monsters.
"Sea Monk!" After pondering for a moment, Xu Yi recognized the monster's identity. He had recently been learning about Japan's supernatural creatures.
The Sea Monk opened its mouth and released a huge roar towards the sky, sounding like the wails of millions tormented souls.
Wheels-first continued to play the bone flute. Few knew that the Eight Monster House had not eight, but nine monsters. The Sea Monk before them was an avatar split from the Eight Monster House.
The human heads in the Sea Monk's pupils looked at the Ghost Samurai and emitted a laugh of ambiguous meaning.
The Sea Monk opened its mouth and spewed thick black water. The Ghost Samurai, bound by chains, had no way to evade or phase out of reality.
As the black water splashed onto the Ghost Samurai, Xu Yi felt a slight burning pain in his brain. His complexion changed slightly; the connection with the Ghost Samurai had almost been severed!
It was either the opponent's good luck or some special ability that allowed her to detect the Ghost Samurai's biggest weakness.
If the Ghost Samurai were compared to a car, the normal mode of operation would involve someone entering the car and driving manually. But his current situation was more akin to "mental Wi-Fi" for remote control, whose stability could not compare with the former.
If the black water continued to assault him, the control might break, and the Ghost Samurai would become like a puppet with its strings cut.
Wheels-first writhed her snake-like neck excitedly and swallowed the bone flute, laughing maniacally.
The Eight Monster House was hers! No one could snatch it away!
She stared intently at the Ghost Samurai, her eyes glimmering with desire. Perhaps she could even use the Eight Monster House to control the Ghost Samurai before her.
Once again, the Sea Monk spat out thick black water. This time, a figure appeared in front of the Ghost Samurai, swung a furious fist, and the mere force of the punch blew back the black water.
That was Lisa. She was well aware that if anything happened to the Ghost Samurai, she would not escape unscathed, so she acted decisively.
Wheels-first scoffed at Lisa, not considering her a threat at all, as long as the Ghost Samurai did not intervene. The young girl before her was nothing in her eyes.
Still, she joined in the assault. She wanted to resolve matters swiftly to deal with the Ghost Samurai.
Lisa was in grave danger. Not only was she no match for the Sea Monk alone, but with wheels-first added to the equation, her current endurance was solely due to the explosive power bestowed upon her by "Divine Arrival".
Xu Yi did not act immediately; he was waiting for an opportunity.
The moment came quickly!
Wheels-first attempted a sneak attack from behind Lisa, her guard gradually lowering, foolishly turning her back to the Ghost Samurai.
Xu Yi's eyes lit up, the Ghost Samurai indeed could not move, but he could control more than just the Ghost Samurai.
Upon fixating on the back of Lisa's neck, she pounced with a fierce bite, her pupils flashing with a bloodthirsty glow, as if she could already see the scene of Lisa's neck being snapped by her teeth.
But her body suddenly shivered, she felt the threat of death, a threat coming from behind her.
But hadn't the Ghost Samurai already been bound by chains?
Struggling to turn her head, a dark red light illuminated her eyes, before she had the chance to clearly see what was inside the light, her head was already penetrated.
Demon Blade Red Lotus pinned her to the ground, Red Lotus Karma Flame burning her, as she let out bursts of agonized screams.
Strictly speaking, Demon Blade Red Lotus actually also belonged to "Evil God's Walk," its forging process was the same as that of the Ghost Samurai.
The Bone of Nightmares was unable to separate from the Samurai Armor, because the Armor had previously shattered, and the Transcendence flesh on the Bone of Nightmares had already fused with the Armor.
A part of Xu Yi's intention slipped into Demon Blade Red Lotus, turning it into a "Flying Dagger."
Although it could not resonate with the Demon-Suppressing Flame to unleash a stronger power, facing the current situation, it was already completely sufficient.
Red Lotus Karma Flame ascended, engulfing the head of the creature, burning its soul.
The creature fought for life with its "head" severed, and it actually directly abandoned its head, the neck breaking and flying back to the body.
Xu Yi paid no attention to the creature, as it no longer posed a threat, his focus was now on the Sea Monk.
The Sea Monk was far beyond what Lisa could handle, and she was engulfed in dangerous situations, looking like she could barely hold on anymore.
Demon Blade Red Lotus flew towards Lisa, who did not sense any danger from the blade, and she also saw that the blade flew from the Ghost Samurai.
Before setting off, Xu Yi had told her to trust the Ghost Samurai completely, just as she would trust Xu Yi himself.
Without any hesitation, she grabbed Demon Blade Red Lotus, the dark red Red Lotus Karma Flame repelling the Sea Monk.
Your journey continues on My Virtual Library Empire
Although Lisa's training was in boxing, and she'd only learned a bit about using swords through sparring with Ailan, she wasn't completely ignorant.
Leveraging the power of Demon Blade Red Lotus, she actually managed to temporarily withstand the Sea Monk.
Originally, if Xu Yi personally controlled Demon Blade Red Lotus, he could exert even greater power, but now he didn't have the energy, as he was brewing the "Ultimate Move."
He wanted to resolve the current situation quickly, for some reason, he had a vague feeling that something was not right with the Eight Monster House.
The Sea Monk roared incessantly, the two human heads in its pupils spinning rapidly, the smiles on the faces vanishing.
They sensed an imminent danger, anxiously scanning around, but strangely enough, they couldn't locate the source of the threat.
The humans below kept attacking, the dark red flames burning its soul, causing it to suffer bouts of intense pain.
The Sea Monk became more and more irritable.
Lisa suddenly let out a fierce shout, and Demon Blade Red Lotus descended; the dark red Red Lotus Karma Flame surged, transforming into dazzling blade light, slashing towards the Sea Monk's eyes.
After swinging that strike, the flames on the blade simmered down, evidently consuming a lot.
Lisa was a bit stunned, that previous slash wasn't hers, she didn't have that ability.
The Sea Monk opened its massive maw, a pale giant hand extended from within, grabbing the fiery blade aura, the pale giant hand was incinerated to the bone, revealing chilling white bones.
The "blade aura" collapsed, the remaining Red Lotus Karma Flame splashed towards the Sea Monk's eyes.
Of course, it was Xu Yi secretly manipulating the Demon Blade; the Red Lotus Karma Flame was merely a feint, the real trump card was still to come.
