Chapter 131: Who Would've Thought? I Even Know Tsukuyomi! That's How We Uchiha Roll
Chapter 131: Who Would've Thought? I Even Know Tsukuyomi! That's How We Uchiha Roll
Countless thick, vine-like tendrils surged forward, but Xue Jing controlled the black, semi-transparent giant, slashing diagonally with the giant blade in its hand.
The air whistled sharply as over a dozen tendrils were simultaneously severed by the sharp blade, while several others struck the black giant's body.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—"
The sound of the impact resembled that of striking a steel plate. The giant's armor was dented in several places, but due to its massive size, the tendrils could only penetrate a meter or two before stopping.
"Tsk, the current limit of Shadowflame's materialization strength isn't quite enough."
Xue Jing controlled the giant and waved the giant blade, severing all the tendrils that had pierced its body.
Subsequently, countless streams of black energy emerged from the wounds, writhing for a moment before the injuries gradually healed, returning to their original state.
On the other side, dozens of Shadowflame crows flew towards the woman in the black robe. Their innate spiritual nature allowed them to dodge the tendrils blocking their path in the air, skillfully drawing closer to their target.
"This... Are they alive?"
The black-robed woman was astonished but remained calm. With a casual wave of her hand, dozens of tendrils coiled around her, spinning and enveloping her in a thick, wooden ball.
The Shadowflame crows opened their beaks and let out silent caws before crashing into the wooden ball like suicide bombers.
"Bang—Bang, bang, bang—"
In the instant they made contact, the crows exploded into Shadowflame, obliterating the wooden ball and creating one hole after another. However, the ball, made up of numerous thick tendrils, was extremely sturdy. As soon as it was struck, other tendrils rushed to repair the damage, preventing the crows from breaking through.
After the crows shattered and disappeared, the tattered wooden ball writhed slightly and cracked open, revealing a fissure.
The black-robed woman peered through the gap, her gaze falling on Xue Jing, who was now a black, semi-transparent giant below.
The tendrils continued their relentless assault, but with a mighty swing of the giant blade, Xue Jing cleaved through the thin air, generating a burst of air currents that sliced through the incoming tendrils. Countless severed wooden chunks already littered the ground.
"What exactly is this ability... I've never heard of any Heretical Church that possesses the power to control these strange, black flames."
The woman fell into deep thought.
"It can even transform into matter and create sentient beings... This is a little too convenient."
"Or perhaps, this isn't the power of the Heretical Gods but the ability of some divine artifact that I'm unfamiliar with?"
Xue Jing, standing below, also looked up, his eyes narrowed.
Controlling the Shadowflame giant, he slashed and severed several approaching tendrils before striking a pose akin to drawing a bow and arrow.
Simultaneously, the Shadowflame giant mirrored his actions.
The giant blade in its hand melted, reshaped, and transformed into a pitch-black bow, while two of its fingers sported a massive black feathered arrow.
The bowstring was drawn taut, and the black arrow aimed directly at the wooden ball in the air. The black-robed woman's eyelids twitched uncontrollably: "This..."
"Bang—Whoosh—"
The bowstring snapped, and the arrow shot forth, piercing the wooden ball.
The black-robed woman hastily controlled the ball to open a large gap, through which she leaped out. Just as she escaped, the wooden ball was directly impaled by the giant black arrow.
"Boom!"
The arrow erupted into Shadowflame, obliterating the wooden ball, which was made up of countless thick tendrils, leaving nothing behind.
A tendril reached out and caught the leaping black-robed woman. Before she could catch her breath, she saw that the black giant below had already nocked a second arrow.
"Bang—Whoosh—"
The woman jumped aside to dodge, but this time, she didn't completely avoid the attack.
The arrowhead grazed her waist, tearing a gash in her black robe and exposing her slender, fair waist, along with the edge of her pure white underwear.
A portion of the skin on her waist had also been sliced away, along with two ribs, as if a beast had taken a bite out of her.
The woman clutched her waist, gritting her teeth against the pain. A tendril caught her, and countless others entwined and coiled around her, forming a thick barrier between her and Xue Jing.
"I'm disappointed."
Xue Jing's mocking voice echoed from the other side of the thick barrier.
"What are you doing? You saw me use Susanoo, and you're still messing around with those tentacles. If you had any manners, you'd manifest a golem and go for a direct confrontation."
"And then what? You're still playing with those tentacles over there."
"You're so weak; your name must be Woman."
The black-robed woman suppressed the pain in her waist, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said, "I don't know what you're talking about."
She waved her hand, and several tendrils twisted together, forming a spiral drill.
Many other tendrils followed suit, creating over a dozen drill-like tendrils that charged towards the black giant.
"I mean, now that you've seen me bring out a Gundam, shouldn't you bring out one too? That's what a man's romance is all about!"
Xue Jing said in exasperation.
As he spoke, he controlled the Shadowflame giant to transform the large black bow in its hand into a shield, deflecting the incoming spiral drill tendrils.
The tendrils struck the shield, creating a loud, metallic clanging noise.
"I'm a woman; how am I supposed to understand the romance of men?" the black-robed woman retorted.
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand; I'll teach you. You can combine those tentacles to create a wooden golem..."
As Xue Jing bantered, he knelt on one knee and placed his palm on the ground.
Black energy surged beneath his hand, taking the form of a shark.
The shark, made of Shadowflame, leaped silently from the ground, its empty white eyes staring ahead. Only its fin remained visible as it swam through the earth as if it were the ocean, disappearing into the shadows.
"Who would use such an inefficient ability? You're an idiot!" the black-robed woman exclaimed.
Xue Jing laughed. "Oh? This playful tone suits you much better than your previous sanctimonious act."
The woman in black did not respond. A faint green glow appeared around her waist, and her wounds began to writhe, visibly healing before their eyes.
She reached up and pushed back her hood, revealing a beautiful, mature face.
Her left eye, in contrast to her deep brown right eye, was a kaleidoscope of colors.
She poked her head out from the thick wooden barrier and glanced at the black giant standing several dozen meters away.
It was like a scene out of a myth. The giant held a massive blade in one hand and a shield in the other, blocking the tendril snakes' attacks and slicing off their heads.
Its empty white eyes were devoid of emotion, and its sturdy armor was adorned with patches of black flame, creating an indescribably splendid sight.
'At this rate, this will never end.'
Having made up her mind, the black-robed woman reached up to her colorful left eye.
However, the act of gouging out one's eye was too difficult for her, and her hand trembled as she hesitated.
At that moment, Xue Jing suddenly spoke up. "Hey."
The black-robed woman, who had been peering out, instinctively turned towards the voice and locked eyes with Xue Jing, who was standing within the black, semi-transparent giant.
She saw a pair of silver-white irises.
They were like the serene moon, calm and gentle.
Moonlight silently spilled forth.
The black-robed woman stiffened, her consciousness sliced by the gentle moonlight.
Although it only lasted an instant, her godly-infused spirit quickly broke free from the moonlight's influence, but it was too late.
Beside her, a subtle black fin had been waiting. The Shadow Shark leaped out from the ground, its mouth full of sharp teeth, and bit down on the black-robed woman.
Instead of exploding into Shadowflame, it transformed, becoming black steel bars that coiled around the woman, turning her into a bound dumpling with only her head exposed.
"You...!"
The black-robed woman was flabbergasted.
Xue Jing smiled. "Who would've thought? I even know Tsukuyomi! That's how we Uchiha roll."
The woman was bewildered. "What kind of strange ability is this? What are you?"
"That's just how we do things in the Uchiha clan," Xue Jing replied, snapping his fingers.
A section of the black steel bars binding the woman transformed, taking the shape of a frying pan.
"Bang—"
A melodious clanging sound rang out, and the black-robed woman, with a look of resentment, lost consciousness.
