Chapter 191 No More Gambling_2
With Li Changzhou's current strength, he couldn't guarantee he could handle a twenty-meter Sakura Demon—without using "Changzhou".
And "Screwdriver" and her team were to face a Town Level Monster tomorrow, it would take at least three, or even four or five cultivators to hold it off.
"Have you heard of the Great Sun Tathagata?" "Screwdriver" asked.
"Of course, but it seems to have been lost."
"Lost?"
Since it was lost, where did the teachings come from? "Screwdriver" was puzzled.
That night, she discussed with her five teammates, two of whom had paid to join, and they decided to act alone, not participating in the extermination, and would return after the event to hear about the Great Sun Tathagata Mantra.
Less than twenty minutes later, a cultivator came looking for "Screwdriver" to ask about those two teammates.
"Do you know them?" the cultivator asked.
"I know them, but not well," "Screwdriver" answered.
"That's good, you stay honest too."
"By the way, what happened to them?"
"They're dead."
"Dead?!"
"It's been so long, and this is the first time I've seen someone openly desert."
The monsters hadn't even appeared yet, and two of the six were already casualties.
The next evening, a cultivator somehow received the teachings of the Great Sun Tathagata, and the entire Hakone was enveloped in divine light.
They say his name was Yuan Qingsu, the lover of the Divine Witch, involved with the Ise Witch, yet he was a super novice who had only been cultivating for a month.
Unfortunately, "Screwdriver" and her peers, given their status, had no access to the Hakone Shrine and didn't meet this bearer of the Great Sun Tathagata Mantra.
The next day, the battle began, far beyond "Screwdriver" and her three teammates' expectations.
The entire Hakone sky was covered with rolling dark clouds; gale winds blew, and the waters of Hakone Lake surged furiously.
A kilometer-long red and black dragon was form, nearly completely materialized.
"Screwdriver" stood in the woods, continuously wiping sweat. The air temperature was already high enough to ignite the wild grass.
In the distance in the sky, the legendary Divine Witch and the Ise Witch were together, the rolling golden radiance and the raging flames complementing each other.
For a moment, it seemed as though the world went silent.
The divine aura subsided, and the immense mountain-like, kilometer-long red and black dragon slowly opened its eyes.
"Screwdriver" only heard someone shout, "Act!" Flames, thunder, gales, flying rocks, massive waves, sword lights, and shadows seemed intended to fill "Big Surge Valley" in one go, pummeling down on the red and black dragon like a torrential rain.
She was instantly blown away by the blast and passed out.
When she came to, she saw the sturdy earth churning like waves.
Golden thunder and flame thunder entwined, falling from the sky, smashing down ferociously!
A huge "swastika" light wheel, like a spotlight, shone directly on the red and black Evil Dragon.
It was dark and stormy, winds howled furiously, and the red and black dragon enveloped in the golden light of the "swastika" wheel hovered in the sky like a deity.
"Rescue squad!" someone yelled; someone was injured.
Yugong Naya urged "Screwdriver" forward, and "Screwdriver" struggled to walk a few steps, then was knocked out by something unknown.
When she woke up the second time, she was covered in blood.
"Ah! Ah!" Cries of agony were all around her.
"Stop crying!"
Healing magic poured down like spring rain.
"Is it better now?" someone unknown asked "Screwdriver."
In the sky, the spell roared, the golden "swastika" light wheel had disappeared, and "Screwdriver" nodded blankly.
"If it's better, go save people!" that person pointed to an area being bombarded by spells in the distance.
"Screwdriver" hesitated; she didn't want to go.
"I'm not going, I quit!" "Screwdriver" turned her head; it was a teammate who had come to this world with her.
The light of a blade flashed, and the teammate's head rolled off.
"Screwdriver" struggled to her feet and ran to the battlefield.
"Roar!" the Evil Dragon roared furiously.
The dragon raised its head, opened its jaws, and emitted a red and black beam of divine power.
Everything between heaven and earth was fragile under that red and black beam, crumbling like a hot knife through butter at the slightest touch.
"Screwdriver" saw with her own eyes a small mountain being sheared off right before her eyes.
Mountain-sized golden lightning struck down like splitting the heavens and the earth, heavily striking the swaying tail of the dragon.
With a boom, the kilometer-long dragon's body was amidst the sea of golden thunder, the scene was divinely sublime.
Yet the dragon within the sea of thunder let out an unprecedented scream of pain.
Not just the red and black dragon, but any cultivator who got too close felt numb all over, tears sparked from their eyes by the golden light, and they hastily retreated.
Is this the strength of a Divine Witch?
"Screwdriver" passed out again.
When she was revived the third time, all her teammates were dead.
She saw in the sky, the golden light representing the Divine Witch, the flame thunder symbolizing the Ise Witch, and the red and black Evil Dragon fiercely battling over the Hakone Plateau.
With a sweep of its tail, Outer Wheel Mountain mournfully groaned;
its giant claws broke through the air, causing the summit of Zaoyun Mountain to collapse;
its winding body squeezed out a long canyon.
"Can we win?"
"Of course we can win!"
Two newcomers from the Yugong Naya squad said.
"Talking like this is useless, better focus on recovering!" Yugong Naya scolded.
"Screwdriver" looked at her; their captain was also injured, and they were all hiding within a Barrier at this time.
In the distance, rocks from the mountain rolled down, giant trees sprouted from the ground like grass, and rushed over like the sky was falling, only to be blocked by the Barrier.
It seemed they wouldn't need to go out to save others for a while, they were safe.
"Are we really of any use?" she murmured.
The red and black dragon roared ferociously, bloodied all over, still utterly ferocious, occasionally taking a hit from someone's spell to kill another person.
