Chapter 41 - Natural Enemies

'...Pheonix Song...'

As Li BiHua whispered, qi shadows of flutes floated around her as they became slowly more corporeal.

She rushed towards like a raging monsoon as the wind billowed around her, the flutes spiraling as she advanced.

As she swung at Ning Xi's head, the flutes followed like a feather in the wind as they aimed at different vitals about the body.

Ning Xi avoided the blows as she turned and twisted in an inhuman fashion leaving any who watched in utter shock.

The flute shadows dipped and dived as they darted around her, missing her by a hairs margin.

"Keep still!" BiHua shouted as she aimed her attack downwards, destroying all that was nearby.

As the battle there began to heat up, the side with Madlenkosi was in full swing.

"Boy! I don't know why senior Yuan Bo is so wary of you but since I'm also at the peak of Qi conversation I'll show him that You! Are! Nothing!" The Bone Blade disciple hissed as he charged forwards.

Repeated clashes had ensued with one of the bone blade disciples already severely injured from a staff sweep.

As the bone blade in his hand swiped downwards the other bone blade disciple and Yuan Bo made a triangular 3-man formation as they surrounded Madlenkosi.

As the incoming bone blade grew larger with the reflection of his eyes, he punched out with his left hand as a white fist shadow connected with the blade!

'Moon Gazing Fist :

Mountain Embraces The Moon!'

As the picturesque landscape rippled into being behind him, it created a dampening effect similar to that of water.

As blades swung towards him, they soon slowed.

It looked like they were passing through the surface of a lake, leaving ripples in their wake as they sliced their way through.

Their eyes gawked at the sight of this, unknowingly Madlenkosi had already touched the next threshold of mastery, The Manifestation Realm.

With his half-step manifestation, the picturesque landscape looked all the more real.

It layered over the terrain making it look neither real nor illusory.

The floor and everything around him rippling slightly from the movements of others.

As they stared at their opponent a newfound sense of crisis entered their hearts.

'Yin Corpse Ghost Asura Formation!'

Yuan Bo shouted as they reformed their formation, they slowly walked around Madlenkosi as their movements rippled outwardly and afterimages followed their movements as they circled him.

A ghastly smoky aura lingered around them with Yuan Bo as the lead, he started to trace his blade along the floor which was then echoed by the 2 others.

Soon their intents melded to produce a ghastly figure which overlapped with their bodies as they grew two more arms and their skin went as pale as snow.

Their hair hung low as it went a dark murky black, their teeth grew long and sharp as they protruded from between their lips and their eyes glowed red with a thick killing aura exuding from within them.

They looked crazed as they stared him down, like a pack of rabid dogs circling their prey. A dark murky fog was breathed out, and as it filled the air, a pungent stench followed.

Yuan Bo who was at the front smiled creepily as he said, "Be thankful you can see our 'Yin Corpse Ghost Asura Formation' before you die, it must be the good luck of your past 9 generations. Ka ka ka." As he laughed his jaw made the sound of bones being smacked together which would have unnerved most.

Madlenkosi's held a defensive stance as he could feel a shift in the heaven and earth qi around him.

As Yuan Bo and the other disciples stopped walking they turned towards the center as they raised their bone blades.

From the hilt, a blood-red color filled the blade.

As they pointed forwards yin spirits slowly crawled out of the merged intent behind them, snarling as they made their way forward.

Madlenkosi raised his staff as his brows furrowed, his eyes glaring at the trio and small army of yin spirits.

Song Jiuge caught a glimpse of what was behind him and was left speechless...

One golden-brown boy with an ivory staff facing off against things that looked like they crawled out of the abyss...

Though it looked awe-inspiring, no one had the time to be lost in this scene as they all had their battles.

As the yin spirits rushed him, Madlenkosi spun his staff as he swiped, thrust and sweep but upon contact, it just passed straight through them like they were never there, to begin with.

Wretched cackles and bone-wrenching screeches were heard as they spun around him as they flew, swiping and scratching leaving lines of blood in his body that emitted the stench of rotting flesh.

Madlenkosi gritted his teeth as he fought tooth and nail, trying his best to kill the yin spirits around him.

"You two, go get Young Master Hongs yin furnace" Yuan Bo looked towards the two other bone blade disciples as he made a gesture towards the young miss Mo...

Never in all her life did she know that the bone blade sect had such means.

As she saw the two ghastly disciples making their way towards her she shrank backward in fear as she looked left and right to find a lifeline to grab a hold of.

She hated how weak she was, she resented the fact that no one wanted to go against Young Master Hong because of his backing, but most of all she hated that she might never have the chance again to redeem herself and fix her weakness once caught by these men...

As Madlenkosi saw the desperate look in her eyes and the despair that was written across her face, his eyes glowed gold as he summoned his dragon scales, as the yin spirits swiped and slashed at him only sparks could be seen as their claws glided over the hardened scales.

Though he was able to deal with the wounds he was getting he still didn't know how to destroy them, as he was panicking he decided to go all out since he didn't have much of a choice.

As his hair floated and billowed without wind the rings rattled and chimed, embers could be seen flickering off his hair and eyebrows as they soon caught ablaze...

A golden flame coated his body, clothes, and staff as the flames flickered in his eyes. He raised his staff as he swung down on the yin spirits around him!

'Strike The Heavens!'

A golden flame-coated staff shadow swung down like a meteorite from the sky above, whistling as it fell. The yin spirits who had little intelligence continued to attack, but Yuan Bo, Ning Xi, and Ning Mei as well as the two other bone-blade disciples all stood in shock and fear like a mouse who just met a cat.

The yin specters who were touched by even a slight ember of the flame caught ablaze like dry grass as they perished one by one, screaming and wailing as they burned.

Madlenkosi watched this all happen as he raised his head and smirked dangerously while starting at his opponents...

Yin was countered by an even stronger Yang and it felt like this little golden boy wasn't even a cat, but a ferocious tiger...he was like... their natural predator...
