Monster Master: Evidence of the Way

Chapter 197 Reversal! Feng Yin appears

But Xuanwu also knew that Boquan, who was controlled by the insect and "alive", could not be considered truly "alive". At most, he could only be considered "immortal".

What does it mean to truly live?

Is it still alive to have a brain that only thinks but cannot react to external stimuli? Furthermore, Boquan could even be said to have no self-awareness.

But at least... Xuanwu could still see him. Soon, this last bit of affection was also missing, and it was Xuanwu who sent him away with his own hands.

Originally, the poisonous insects should have been able to stabilize Boquan's vital signs, but for some unknown reason, the poisonous insects lost their activity.

Lilith, the mother of all insects, no longer provides shelter for the insects and has fallen into a long sleep.

As a result, the poisonous insects that had lost their energy could no longer function. They died suddenly and released toxins into Boquan's body before dying.

The zombie apocalypse has begun.

Xuanwu had only heard of similar things, but this was the first time he had witnessed one. In its transformed state, a corpse completely loses its sanity, acting only on its most primitive violent impulses. Most terrifyingly, it can infect and create more of its kind.

In order to prevent innocent people from being killed, Xuanwu chose to kill Boquan himself.

……

“I didn’t expect this to happen.”

After learning the whole story, Yi Yin began to blame herself vaguely. If she hadn't insisted on having a fight with Xing Qiri, she wouldn't have let Lilith fall into a deep sleep, and Bo Quan wouldn't have died.

But then again, who could have expected the chain reaction to be so severe?

"Senior Xuanwu, I have seen your memories."

"Everyone has memories that are hard to let go, but you must never let them stop you from moving forward. You still have many friends around you, so don't give up hope!"

Originally, it was Xuanwu who was transferring true energy to Yiyin, but now Yiyin is comforting Xuanwu instead.

The double blow of physical and mental suffering made Yiyin miserable, but compared with Xuanwu's experience, Yiyin knew that these were nothing.

Xuanwu killed his closest friend with his own hands. In comparison, he only killed Hevelius, who had nothing to do with him, and that happened a long time ago.

Although it may not be nice to say this, comparing one's misery to another can really make people feel happy.

Of course, it's also possible that Yi Yin had reached a threshold. He felt a chill in his mind, as if he had suddenly become a hundred and twenty times smarter. At the same time, he felt his connection with the Heaven-Defying Black Tortoise grow ever closer.

Time still passed as usual. Despite the severe headache, Yiyin felt that there were many things he could do in one second.

He had just been in a trance, witnessed Xuanwu's sad past, and adjusted himself to the best state.

This was just a small price to pay for using the power of darkness. Yi Yin knew that Nitian Xuanwu was also suffering almost the same pain at this time, so he had to end the battle as soon as possible.

The Nitian Xuanwu has been fighting with Deltadar for dozens of rounds, and when Yiyin was not paying attention, they won and lost alternately.

But Yiyin knew that no matter what, Deltadar could not defeat Nitian Xuanwu because Nitian Xuanwu had his own friendship as his spiritual support.

"Divination!"

Following Yiyin's command, the Xuanwu of the Sky began to temporarily give up the attack. It shrunk itself into a ball to guard against the attack from Deltadar.

As expected, Deltadar was ready to go. It rushed towards the Xuanwu at a speed of Mach 9 like a meteor.

With the blessing of moonlight, Deltadar's attack even has the powerful destructive power to directly destroy a city.

However, the Nitian Xuanwu has entered its "Divination" state, which significantly increases its already impressive defense and even limits the damage it can take. Simply put, no matter how fierce an attack is, there's a limit to how much damage it can sustain. This requires multiple, rapid combos to break through its defenses.

But Deltadar obviously can't do that.

The defense of the Xuanwu is completed, and it is its turn to attack.

"Explore!"

Following Yi Yin's command, the Xuanwu of the Sky retreated to advance and began to emit black rays.

It's really strange that the green-haired turtle, a material monster, can actually launch magic attacks... Maybe the green-haired turtle is not a material monster?

Yiyin felt that she knew very little about the Green-Haired Turtle. If she had a monster card, perhaps she could learn more about it. But alas, Yiyin's monster card had already been swallowed by the Four-Beasted Monster. It was truly heartbreaking.

With the "Exploration" hit, Deltadar also suffered considerable damage, but it was not as fragile as it looked. On the contrary, due to its overall streamlined structure, Deltadar was able to disperse the damage it received very well. In this way, it seems that it has many similarities with the Heaven-Defying Black Tortoise.

Yi Yin originally wanted to let the Nitian Xuanwu pursue the victory. After the blackened upgrade, it has four skills. Once all of them are used, the victory will basically be secured.

Now, Ni Tian Xuan Wu has only used two of his exclusive skills. Yi Yin wanted Ni Tian Xuan Wu to continue using the remaining two exclusive skills, but he felt weak.

Beads of sweat the size of beans fell from Yiyin's forehead and hit the scorched earth that was scorched by the one trillion-degree fireball ejected by Deltadar.

Behind him, Xuanwu also broke out in cold sweat, because this evil aura was much stronger than she had expected, and she was afraid that it would not be so easy to dispel it.

"(Although it's a bit risky, this is the only way we can do it right now. Yiyin, remember, our souls once merged, so you can see my past memories. Now, I will reversely extract some of the power from your body to reduce the damage caused by that evil spirit.)"

Yiyin certainly knew what Xuanwu wanted to do. To put it simply, she wanted to help herself bear an equal amount of pain in order to reduce the pressure on herself.

But Yiyin couldn't bear to do this. Xuanwu had suffered enough. At least she could slowly heal the scars in her later life, but Xuanwu, her time was running out, and this might even put her in the final days of her life.

Xuanwu did not ask for Yiyin's opinion, just as Yiyin would not ask for Xuanwu's opinion.

When Yi Yin came to his senses, he felt the frenzy in his heart had subsided considerably. At this moment, he was able to easily control the farewell gift given to him by Huan Shen.

"..."

The situation on the battlefield was ever-changing. In the short time that Xuanwu was helping Yiyin solve her problems, the Nitian Xuanwu had been severely injured by Deltadar.

The situation on the battlefield reversed so quickly that Yiyin even suspected that some time had been deleted again.

Or was it because Yiyin's power was no longer as effective after becoming controllable? Regardless, the outcome was inevitable—Nitian Xuanwu was pinned down by Deltadar, suffering even more severe a beating than before his dark transformation.

Not long after, a creepy red light flashed again, and the Black Tortoise of Heaven stopped its darkening upgrade and turned back into a green-haired turtle.

But this time the situation was even worse. The green-haired turtle didn't even have the strength to struggle. It was even worse than its first defeat.

"Green-haired turtle—"

Yi Yin's eyes went dark and he nearly fainted, but he knew he couldn't do that, as the powerful enemy hadn't been defeated yet.

The surrounding air began to become scorching hot, and one could even vaguely see the waves caused by the high temperature deformation.

If Deltadar unleashes another fierce fire attack, everything in the dark alley will be reduced to ashes!

Yiyin really didn't have the strength to run, otherwise he could at least take the green-haired turtle away from here.

“(Flash!)”

Xuanwu knew that it was useless to say anything more, so she took the initiative to stop transmitting energy to Yiyin and stood silently in front of him.

"(You're different from me. I don't have much time left. Yiyin, go get some reinforcements. Didn't you say this is your hometown? You should protect it well.)"

Xuanwu seemed to want to use his body to buy some time for Yiyin to escape.

At this moment, the moon suddenly sank a little, and the air around it became a little agitated.

"Xuanwu-senpai...what are you doing?!"

Yiyin's mind went blank and he gave up thinking.

He saw a white bird silhouette suddenly appear in the dark sky and start fighting with Deltadar.
