Chapter 3233

The eight magic swords were held high toward the night sky at this moment. As the Whispering elements resonated, the giant black light sword formed by the intertwined black light and shadow slashed down toward the five people on the slope under the moonlight.

"Night Curtain Seal!"

The wind pressure made Duo Luo Qian and Lu Lu Weiya's hair fly backward. The young ladies pressed their hands on Xia De's shoulders from left and right, and the deep ink-colored shield summoned by the three of them together encompassed all five of them.

The giant sword falling from the night sky collided with the shield, and a loud bang exploded on the Fatumunster Snow Mountain, finally disturbing the fortress at the foot of the mountain.

When Claire Reinhardt, who was sleeping groggily, poked her head out of the window with her cloak on, the pitch-black light at the top of the peak had already merged with the night. Because this battle took place in the dark night under the moon, and with the joint help of Duo Luo Qian and Lu Lu Weiya, even the power of the eight magic swords slashing down could not break through that layer of ink-colored shield.

A huge sword mark appeared out of thin air on the snow slope on the west side of the Snow Mountain. Amidst the large amount of snowflakes and smoke stirred up by the collision of spirits and elements, accompanied by a low shout from the Doctor, eight burning flame pillars swallowed the eight people below. The black sword light immediately broke through the flames. As the eight people flew out with their swords, Duo Luo Qian frowned slightly and reached out to grab:

"Spatial Imprisonment."

The eight people who were originally flying in different directions collided in the air as if attracted by a central magnet. While they wanted to separate from each other, the phantom wings behind Priest Ao Gu Si, who had been prepared for a long time, turned into substance. The old man made a posture of drawing a bow and arrow, and after his right index and middle fingers were brought together, he suddenly let go:

"Soul Torrent!"

A gray-white crystalline light stream burst from his fingertips toward the upper diagonal, bombarding the eight people in the air like a light cannon. So the Whispering elements resonated and surged by the eight magic swords formed a shield to try to resist this attack, but the biggest weakness of the magic sword was soul and spiritual attacks.

With a crisp crack, the pitch-black shield was completely torn apart by the torrent of soul power, but what appeared after the shield disappeared was the eight people who had gathered in the air. The tips of the eight long swords touched together and pointed at the five people on the snow slope. Before the gray-white crystalline light stream was about to touch them, the magic swords burst out a terrifying black light stream forward from the air again.

The power of the magic sword collided with Priest Ao Gu Si's soul power, and the Priest immediately took a step back. But at this time, Xia De also opened his right hand toward the top. He did not use 【Night Watchman】, but just took a deep breath to sense the three moons above his head, and then a dazzling silver light burst out from his palm:

"Moon Fire!"

The silver-white light flame merged with the soul torrent, blocking the power of the eight magic swords together. In the second after the stalemate, Bill Schneider had also chosen the power that could be used here.

"Strange Art - Deceptive Stone Mirror!"

A huge black "stone gate" appeared out of thin air in the high sky, and inside the stone gate was a mirror surface similar to mercury. After the Moon Fire and Soul Torrent passed through the stone gate, their light and power suddenly increased, and the silver-white blended light became more powerful under the night sky, pushing the black light backward.

"May we be victorious."

Duo Luo Qian whispered. She struck a match, and after a light blow, the flame turned into a light stream and merged into the spirit light burst out by Xia De and the Priest. The flame itself was not important; the power of Enlightenment that the "Match Girl" wished for, which restrained the Whispering elements, was important. The silver-white light column mixed with flames even made the eight people in the air start to retreat backward.

And Lu Lu Weiya, who was "not good at fighting," picked up the 【Night Watchman】 that Xia De had inserted into the snow, bit her fingertip to smear her blood on the sword body, and then gently drew the long sword in front of her neck.

Because the long sword did not touch her skin, she was of course not injured, but a blood line appeared strangely on the necks of the eight people in the air at the same time. The puppets controlled by the magic sword should not have been affected by such an injury in battle, but the essence of this curse was to attack the soul by causing wounds.

The curse affected the transmission of spirits between the magic sword and the puppet. The spirit light output by the magic sword suddenly weakened at this moment, so the eight people and eight swords in the air, unable to borrow strength, were pushed to a further place in the high sky by the magnificent silver-white light stream with fire light.

At this very moment, the priests in the Kyle-Todd town who were monitoring the situation of the Snow Mountain had all been awakened, and the witches and apprentices had also come outside. Everyone looked up in surprise at the silver-white light line shooting obliquely from the Snow Mountain into the night sky until it disappeared in the distance. The combination attack formed by pure moonlight and soul power wrapped in Enlightenment and magnified by the malicious mirror gate was something no one had ever seen before.

"At least leave one sword behind, don't let them run away!"

Xia De said in a low voice above the snow slope, and stepped forward with Duo Luo Qian, disappearing from the spot. Priest Ao Gu Si and Doctor Schneider jumped out and flew out together, leaving only Lu Lu Weiya holding the 【Night Watchman】 and turning around, picking up what she had just aimed at from the snow, which was a piece of snake skin the size of a palm:

"Did it leave it behind after the giant snake died?"

The four people who left soon returned. Lu Lu Weiya moved her gaze away from the snake skin in her hand and saw Xia De holding a plain black long sword in his hand. Of course, he did not touch the magic sword directly; the right hand holding the sword was wearing the dragon-skin glove that Fiona gave him when he was in the "City of Eternal Night."

The Whispering elements were scattered on the surface of the long sword, but because it lost the resonance of other magic swords, it no longer had the terrifying power it had just now.

"They ran too fast, and only one was left in the end."

The Doctor explained, so Lu Lu Weiya handed the 【Night Watchman】 to Xia De, asking him to try to destroy this magic sword directly. But after Xia De took his long sword, he hesitated and asked Priest Ao Gu Si:

"Priest, can you sense the soul in this sword now?"

The five people gathered together. The Priest closed his eyes and reached out to the sword, his palm facing the black gem on the hilt that looked like an eye:

"Yes, you explained the so-called 'Mother Nest Consciousness,' and I can feel the existence of this peculiar soul."

"Then can you erase the soul in this sword and make it no longer regenerate consciousness due to the characteristics of the relic?"

This request was very difficult, after all, it was a direct challenge to the core characteristics of an Angel-level relic. Priest Ao Gu Si hesitated, but Duo Luo Qian understood Xia De's meaning:

"If the Priest can do this, it is equivalent to us harvesting a magic sword whose negative characteristics have dropped sharply."

"I can also help, I also know some soul knowledge."

The Doctor echoed from the side. Priest Ao Gu Si glanced at him. They actually had a certain understanding of each other's situation, but because of Xia De's existence, they would not worry about each other's power. Whether it was the Death Angel or the user of demonic power, they were indeed very good at dealing with souls.

But after careful consideration, the Priest shook his head:

"No, even with the Doctor's help, it won't work. I'm not that strong yet, and I'm not familiar with the soul characteristics of this kind of metal life form. Now I can only temporarily force the soul in the sword into a coma and temporarily cut off the connection between this sword and other magic swords.

This effect will last for at most one week. I can guarantee that during this period, even the 'Mother Nest Consciousness' will not be able to accurately sense the location of this sword, let alone control it. But this operation can only be done once. The next time, the effect will be greatly reduced, and even if the same treatment is performed on another sword, the effect will not be as good as the first time."

Xia De was already very satisfied with this:

"It doesn't matter, this is enough. Since a one-week safety period can be guaranteed, I won't cut this sword for now."

"Do you have other plans?"

Lu Lu Weiya asked, and Xia De nodded slowly:

"I think I suddenly realized a method to contain this Angel-level relic more thoroughly than any previous era. People in the past probably didn't realize that this could be done."

Although the movement on the mountain was very loud, it would take time for the people at the foot of the mountain to reach here, so the Priest and the Doctor had enough time to cast spells to deal with the magic sword.

However, the open-air environment here was windy and snowy, which was really not a place suitable for a long stay. Xia De followed the Fatumun map and led everyone to a small auditorium a little further away.

Unlike the abandoned small auditorium he went to with Miss Reinhardt and Miss Larson yesterday, this auditorium was on the only way to this year's "All Souls Festival," so the interior of this stone building on the Snow Mountain had been cleaned up.

The Priest took the black long sword and cast a spell, and Doctor Schneider helped from the side. Xia De closed the door of the auditorium to keep the wind and snow outside, and just as he wanted to say something more, he noticed what Lu Lu Weiya was holding:

"Where did you pick up this snake skin?"

The snake skin that Lu Lu Weiya was holding at this time looked exactly the same as the material of the snake skin Xia De found from the depths of the spring at the foot of the mountain yesterday morning. This piece of snake skin was also only the size of a palm. Although the shape was slightly different from the snake skin preserved by the witch, Xia De instinctively felt that it was the same thing.

"I just picked it up from the snow. I think it was probably left behind after the giant snake died."

Lu Lu Weiya of course guessed what this was and checked it happily:

"I originally wanted to borrow the snake skin in Reinhardt's hand to study, but I didn't expect to get a new one so soon. You said last time that her hand suddenly bled by itself? Then I have to be careful. I don't want to activate it for the time being, otherwise the research value will be greatly reduced."

Duo Luo Qian was originally watching the Priest cast the spell, and at this time she also turned around:

"Didn't Xia De say that your divination believes that this snake skin is related to that ancient god of fate? I know some ancient secrets. Although 【Ouroboros】 symbolizes the cycle of fate, the concept of 'cycle' itself is also related to space.

If this snake skin is really related to that ancient god, then the giant snake's ability to adhere to space can be explained."
