The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 612 Eye of the Storm (23)

"Is what you see real?"

Hoshiba Jean's voice rang in Hayafune Chizuru's ears.

She turned her head in confusion. Xingchang Ran was actually sitting on the ruins not far away. The one in front of her...

Chizuru Hayafune exerted force with her palm, and the "star field" that she grasped in the heart exploded with a bang, and turned into ribbons and colored pieces in the sky, just like colorful flower tubes used in celebration.

"Tada~" Xingchang opened his hands and laughed exaggeratedly: "Not a bad start, right? You actually launched the attack without saying a word. If I hadn't been prepared..."

A pair of hands grabbed Xingchang Rang's head from behind and twisted it hard.

With a crisp sound of bone cracking, Xingchang's head spiraled up into the sky, flames spurted out of his neck, and he flew into the air, and with a bang, a brilliant firework exploded.

"...Maybe I'll be killed by you before I can even finish my opening remarks." Another Hoshiba Ran walked out from behind the ruins, continued what he had just said, and looked at Hayafune Chizuru over there.

Chizuru Hayafune stood on the ruins, looking at the corpse in front of her with its head spiraling into the sky and turning into dust and dissipating, she seemed a little hesitant.

"Did you see it?" Xingchang Rang played with the gemstone scepter in his hand and said slowly, "It's a very strange power, right? Not only what you see with your eyes may be false, but even the sound and touch may be forged. The information around you has been controlled by someone. It seems free, but in fact you have no choice. This is the power of [Huojin God·Hypocritical King]."

The screen flickered, and the Star Field Leader was shattered by the sudden attack again, shattering like a statue. But the next second, dozens of Star Field Leaders walked out from the surrounding ruins, and they spoke coherently one after another.

"it's useless."

"You're wasting your energy."

"No matter how many illusions you kill, I can create more."

“Is my real body really here?”

"Or am I just stalling for time?"

"If it was before, I would never have been able to defeat you, even with the power of the God of Mizutsu."

"You are like a veritable monster, inexplicably powerful."

"But now... can you really see through my illusion?"

Just when Xingchang was about to smugly stimulate the other party with words to find a flaw, he suddenly shut his mouth because he saw an incredible scene.

Chizuru Hayafune's figure flickered for a while, as if the signal was bad. Then, another Chizuru Hayafune appeared, followed by the second, and the third...

"You must be kidding..." All the stars in the field had cold sweat on their faces, because they could clearly sense that they were all real entities! Each of them had the dangerous power to crush his heart! They were completely different from the illusions he created.

In just a moment, the illusions created by Hoshiba were torn to pieces by the violent Hayafune Chizuru. But even if all the Hoshiba disappeared, his body was not found. The illusions turned into dust and dissipated, but no one knew where his real body went.

But since she couldn't find it, Chizuru Hayafune didn't dig deep into the ground. Her clones flashed and disappeared one after another. Then she sensed the breath in the air and walked silently in a certain direction, like an emotionless robot.

After she left, a piece of stone in the ruins suddenly turned into a star field. He wiped the cold sweat from his head and murmured, "It's so terrifying... I feel like I can't beat her at all. No wonder even Mr. Ashiya acknowledged the title of this woman [Monster]... But how is this possible? How can one person be so strong? Where does her power come from?"

Although his mind was in a mess, now was not the time to let the other party leave. He had to stop this guy and prevent a monster like Chizuru Hayafune from posing a threat to his companions.

Just as he was about to rush forward, a paper bird landed in front of him.

"Rangjun, don't act rashly." The paper bird shikigami said, "Look carefully ahead, at the ground."

Hoshiba Rang was stunned and looked at the ground in the direction where Hayafune Chizuru left. As an expert in using illusions, the King of Tanuki naturally had the ability to see through illusions. In Hoshiba Rang's eyes, there were countless tiny black lines wriggling on the ground. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't find them at all.

No, not only on the ground, those lines were actually spreading continuously, covering the surrounding space like strange and twisted spores.

"That's..." Xingchang was a little surprised.

The Paper Bird Shikigami said, "It is the aura left by Hayafune Chizuru. With just her aura, she can influence the people around her. As long as they are infected by her aura, the twisted despair and resentment will unconsciously entangle the opponent, like a seed, taking root and sprouting. This is the conclusion I came to after fighting with her several times."

"Yes... [contact]!" The star field stirred up a storm in his heart.

Qian Xiaoyi once told him that in the theory of cognitive school, there are two ways to use magic or supernatural things to harm others. One is to drag people directly into the already formed ghost domain. In the ghost domain, even ordinary people will see those strange scenes.

The other is to establish a connection between them, so that the ghost can affect the target. Only the target can see the ghost, while others turn a blind eye. Even if the target stands in the sun, he can see the ghost appear, and there is nowhere to hide.

Only then did Xingba fully understand the value of Chizuru Hayafune's title of "Monster". It was not only about its power, but also its way of fighting, which was exactly the same as that of the evil spirit!

It is even possible that as long as you see her appearance, you will be connected to that guy and be marked.

Xing Changrang blurted out: "How can I fight this kind of monster? The closer I get to her, the more she can affect me in return! That's why she can appear in front of me without any warning, because I have already been marked by her... No, I understand, it's the distance!"

The Paper Bird Shikigami nodded: "Yes, her ability is limited to a certain distance. Once you are out of her field of vision and the influence of her aura, and get rid of her influence, then she will not be able to use that completely unreasonable attack method."

"Wait!" Xingchang Rang asked, "But in this case, wouldn't it mean that we can only run away but not defeat her?"

"Don't forget, she's still a human being." The Paper Bird Shikigami reminded, "Besides, we have reinforcements."

Xingchang suddenly realized: "Human... That's right! Now the reality is still in typhoon weather, so she is still affected by the typhoon. As long as she can hold on for enough time, her body will definitely not be able to withstand the ravages of the storm! Thank you, old man, I will try my best to hold her back."

The paper bird shikigami nodded and flapped its wings away.
